During this period, Zhang's father and mother also came to the Internet café, and Zhang Fan dispelled his parents' doubts for the same reason, and they now believe in their son unconditionally.

"Xiaofan, I heard that two new Internet cafes will be opened near People's Square, this is ...... Will this affect our business? Zhang Xuefeng took advantage of his leisure time to pull Zhang Fan aside and asked, unconsciously he always wanted to listen to his son's advice when he encountered something.

Zhang Fan smiled when he heard this, and said: "Dad, don't worry, the market is still in an unsaturated state, even if we open a few more Internet cafes, it will not have an impact on our family." ”

After speaking, Zhang Fan pointed to the crowded crowd in the Internet café, as well as many people who were still standing in the corridor and waiting for their seats, "Dad, you come to the Internet café every day, you should know better than me." ”

Zhang Xuefeng smiled embarrassedly, as a person who has been at the bottom of life all the year round, he is too sensitive to the competition in these industries.

"Xiaofan, in that case, why don't we plate the shop next door after a while?" Zhang Xuefeng rubbed his old hand full of yellow calluses, and put forward a suggestion that shocked Zhang Fan.

The shop next door is twice the size of the current Universal Internet café, and the rent for just one year will be a lot, not to mention the purchase of new computer equipment.

Zhang Fan looked at his father in surprise, this person who has always been honest and honest in his eyes, actually has such great courage?

"Dad, logically speaking, it's not impossible, but ......" Zhang Fan thought in his mind.

"First, there is the issue of funding. The rent of the shop and the cost of purchasing machinery, as well as the cost of water and electricity, and various industrial and commercial taxes. Second, the problem of Internet café operation. Dad, you and your mother are both new to the Internet café industry, we have only opened for less than a month, how can the Internet café be effectively operated and managed for a long time? Third, the problem of employees, the scale of the Internet café has expanded, and you can't still be on duty with your mother and Sister Anqi, right? ”

Zhang Fan said everything he thought of in one go, "Dad, that's all I can think of at the moment, what do you think?" ”

Zhang Xuefeng listened very carefully, and while he was amazed at how careful his son's thinking logic was, he was also slowly thinking about the corresponding countermeasures.

"Xiaofan, in the final analysis, the biggest problem is funds, right? As for management experience, your mother and I, and even Angel can learn slowly, as long as there are not enough people to recruit. Zhang Xuefeng said.

Zhang Fan nodded, "software" can be upgraded slowly, "hardware" can't really work!

Zhang Xuefeng continued: "I have also thought about the matter of funds, the rent of the store does not mean that it has to be settled at one time, and it doesn't cost much to buy a batch of old machines, and we can pay in installments......

After listening to his father's words, Zhang Fan felt that his idea should have been conceived for a long time, and it must not have risen today, so what was the reason why a person who was so conservative in the past had such courage?

"Dad, what is the turnover of our Internet café since it opened?"

There is only one reason why a person who is accustomed to poverty is so crazy, and that is money.

Zhang Haifeng was stunned for a moment, and couldn't figure out why his son suddenly asked such a question, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Xiaofan, why do you ask that?"

Zhang Fan smiled slightly and said, "Dad, I guess the turnover in less than a month will definitely not be less, and it may be even higher than we expected, isn't it?" Otherwise, how could you be in such a hurry to scale? ”

Zhang Haifeng looked at his son with some surprise, but he didn't expect Zhang Fan to see the reason for the matter at a glance, he looked around at no one, and then said in a low voice: "A total of twenty-three days, the turnover is nearly 30,000 yuan, excluding water and electricity bills, broadband fees, and store rent, the net profit is about 23,000." ”

"How can the profits be so high?" Zhang Fan was a little surprised, an Internet café with only more than 40 computers has a net profit of more than 20,000 yuan in less than a month, which is equivalent to the income of an ordinary family for more than half a year, in other words, it can recover its costs in less than half a year.

Zhang Fan then understood why there were so many nouveau riche in his previous life, in this era, as long as you dare to be a child and dare to be a crab eater, you will definitely be rewarded.

However, the golden period of development of Internet cafes is only a few years, and with the popularization of home computers, the high requirements of the public for computer configuration and the control of Internet cafes by the Chinese Cultural Bureau, the development of Internet cafes has become more and more restricted, and small Internet cafes have gradually been eliminated. At that time, if you want to open an Internet café to make money, it will take at least a year or two to return to your capital.

"Dad, we have to discuss this matter carefully, it's not right to be in a hurry to survive, but we must not miss this good opportunity." Zhang Fan said.

Zhang Haifeng patted Zhang Fan's shoulder and said softly: "Don't worry, Xiaofan, your father and I are not illiterate people who see money, I think that I am a person who was admitted to high school by one point in the next year, which is unique in our village." ”

Zhang Fan was about to say something, when Zhang's mother's voice came from a distance, "Haifeng, what are you talking about with your son there?" If it's okay, come over and help! Don't you see that Angel and I are too busy? ”

"Ahh It's coming, it's coming! Zhang Haifeng replied loudly.

"Dad, then we have time to discuss it again."

"Okay."

Looking at the back of his father walking away, Zhang Fan's heart warmed.

Sometimes he is very annoying, loves to lose his temper, loves to drink and smoke, and even quarrels with his mother. But he always worked hard, made money, and drove at two or three o'clock at night to pull goods.

He also has a career he likes, but he has to give up for himself. He was tired, but he never said he was tired.

……

In the hot summer, the entire small county town is cooked like a steamer, and the cold wind blown by the air conditioner in the Internet café dispels this dry heat, forming a situation of ice and fire with the outside world.

In the afternoon, Zhang Fan wanted to help his parents work in the Internet café, but they refused solemnly.

Zhang's father and mother said: "It's hard to have a holiday, so go home and have a good rest." ”

Zhang Fan had no choice but to go home early by himself, but he kept in mind the agreement with Jiang Anqi and looked forward to her coming home from work soon.

While Zhang Fan was waiting, Lily came home from school......

"Brother, do you feel like you're not happy to see me?" Lily opened the door, but didn't walk in.

"How? I'm so happy. Zhang Fan immediately smiled, and secretly sighed in his heart, "Women are not good to be old and young, and they are so sensitive?" ”

Lily shook her head, shook her head, and walked into the room and put down her school bag.

"Brother, I'm going to play at Xiaofang's house next door today, I won't play with you, hum."

"Lily, aren't you going home for dinner?"

"I'll eat at Xiaofang's house."

“……”

The tsundere Lily jumped out of the door, Zhang Fan chuckled and shook his head, Xiaofang's house is next door, and the two families are very familiar, and he is not worried about Lily's safety.
