Chapter 68 Widow with Child
Chapter 68 Widow with Child
Everyone in the office turned to look.
Do you know what it means when that mature woman calls out "Dad"?
This means it was her dad who made the call!
...Okay, that means the person who called was the real person in charge of Yonghui Mall, the owner of Yonghui Mall.
"Okay," Shen Youqing said, then handed the phone to Dai Linfeng, saying, "My dad wants you to answer the phone!"
Dai Linfeng paused for a moment, then took the phone with both hands with a somewhat apprehensive air. He coughed lightly and stood up straight. "Boss, this is Dai Linfeng."
"well...."
"it is good."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, he looked at Jiang Cheng, paused, and said, "President Shen said he wants Yonghui Mall across the country to provide him with a shop and waive three months' rent. In addition, he needs to lend him 30,000 yuan for each mall he joins, for a period of three months."
"well."
Dai Linfeng didn't expect his boss to agree so readily, and that his boss knew everything about the situation here without him even having to report!
This means the boss has eyes and ears everywhere!
After hanging up the phone, Dai Linfeng returned the phone to Shen Youqing and said, "President Jiang, our boss said that all your requests can be agreed to. However, we cannot guarantee the time it will take to vacate a shop in each Yonghui Mall, as most malls are full. But as soon as someone vacates, we can give it to you as soon as possible if you think the location is suitable."
“Okay, no problem, it’s settled then. You can sign the agreement whenever you want, and I’ll start making arrangements tomorrow,” Jiang Cheng said.
"The agreement can be signed today. I'll have headquarters prepare the contract and fax it over immediately."
Jiang Cheng understood the situation regarding the shops; it was unreasonable to ask someone to move out and let him come in while they were still operating.
However, this problem is easy to solve, because many stalls in the mall are short-term rentals, and they all advertise clearance sales, usually for a week to three months, and they leave when there is no business.
Moreover, the location of such a store is usually not bad, so he can wait.
With the matter of the Yonghui Mall shops resolved, a worry for Jiangcheng was quickly put to rest.
With Yonghui Mall as a base, not only is there no need to worry about traffic for the blind box business, but it is also easy for others to distinguish themselves from the mainstream when they want to do the blind box business.
Importantly, it allows for the establishment of sales outlets across the country.
Although it's not comprehensive, at least Yonghui has shared some of the network it has built over the years, which will be of great help to its future development!
The blind box stall closed relatively late today, mainly because Li Minghao and his team were well-prepared, with enough stock and manpower. So Li Minghao didn't close up until 10 o'clock, leaving some stock there for someone to watch over until the mall closed.
He went upstairs first to settle the bill for Jiang Cheng.
When the bill came out, even Ye Lingxi, a beautiful woman who had run a factory and done international trade, was stunned!
120,000!
The turnover reached an astonishing 120,000!
To understand the profit margin of the blind box business, just considering Jiangcheng alone, it exceeds 60%.
This is after deducting Li Minghao's and his team's cut!
It's important to understand that the profits at the back end are generally small, with the bulk going to the retail end. For example, in her factory, the profit margin is the lowest among all the links in the chain.
But Jiangcheng is different. Jiangcheng took the lion's share, and it was perfectly reasonable!
This is just one day's profit!
If your own factory were to achieve this profit, how many workers, how much space, how much equipment, and what would your total assets be?
But Jiangcheng's business is practically nonexistent; it's completely asset-light. It can shut down at any time, and even without business, there's no need to worry about costs!
At most, the stall owner pays rent and then pays the staff's wages!
There's no need to worry about inventory or cost issues; those are the factory's responsibility!
"Great!"
This is Ye Lingxi's evaluation.
If I married a man like that, I could just lie back and relax for the rest of my life!
Ye Lingxi sighed, but she was used to being a troublemaker and wasn't someone who would willingly give up.
……
After leaving Shen Youqing's office, Jiang Cheng called Li Minghao and Zheng Junjie over.
"Jiang Cheng, you told us yesterday where we're going." Li Minghao followed Jiang Cheng eagerly.
Although I'm very tired today, seeing the money I earned in a day immediately gave me a boost of energy.
Money is the best medicine!
Jiang Cheng said, "Let's go to an internet cafe. You guys should all be familiar with internet cafes, right?"
Li Minghao's eyes lit up immediately. "I know internet cafes like the back of my hand! You're finally willing to play games with me!"
Li Minghao's original plan was to spend the summer vacation in internet cafes and catch up on all the games he hadn't played before.
But these days, I've been out making money with Jiangcheng, so I haven't had time to play!
Although he could have some fun after closing up shop at night, he didn't dare!
What if I go and Jiang Cheng says I'm a good-for-nothing and won't take me with him anymore?
So now that Jiang Cheng is leading the way in saying we're going to an internet cafe, how could he not be excited!
Zheng Junjie, who is usually socially awkward, has improved a lot when he's setting up his stall, but he still doesn't like to talk much. However, his eyes lit up when Jiang Cheng suggested going to an internet cafe together.
“Start from this area, you lead the way, be quick, if it gets too far, take a taxi,” Jiang Cheng said.
Li Minghao said, "It's not far. I know one nearby, it's very close, only two minutes away. It's not very big, but the proprietress is beautiful!"
Li Minghao wasn't lying. He quickened his pace and saw an internet cafe in just two minutes. The sign was printed on a cloth advertising board. There were two stores in total: one was the main entrance, and the other was a glass-walled store where you could see people surfing the internet inside.
Because it was summer vacation, the internet cafe was doing very well and was almost full.
Li Minghao had previously mentioned that the landlady was very beautiful, but Jiang Cheng hadn't noticed.
Now that I see it, it's really beautiful.
Her hair was tied up, she wore a tight-fitting base layer that seemed to be holding her up, and a knee-length skirt with stockings and high heels.
Jiangcheng stopped in his tracks.
Li Minghao and the others naturally stopped as well.
Jiang Cheng asked Li Minghao, "Where's the boss? Isn't he usually in the store?"
Because he had just glanced around and didn't see anyone who looked like the boss.
Li Minghao looked puzzled and said, "I heard that the boss died in a car accident before the internet cafe opened, leaving behind his wife and children."
"So everyone says that the boss lady has a hard life and is a pitiful person. Everyone often comes to support her business, and her business is better than others."
A widow raising a child, great!
Jiang Cheng said, "Let's go in."
Li Minghao followed behind and asked, "Jiang Cheng, should we get an all-night pass or a membership? It's on me today!"
Jiang Cheng: "We don't open cards."
Jiangcheng didn't come here today to surf the internet, of course.
