  Chapter 38 The Desperate Chen Qi

"is it alright?"

  After a while of anger, Zhu Huihui, who heard that her father hadn't eaten yet, looked at his father's appearance and looked at the boy with some embarrassment.

   "What does it matter, it's just a matter of having an extra set of tableware."

   In my heart, I complained about this uncle who has no self-discipline of elders, and the smile on Zhou Anan's face did not diminish.

   What a shame, I would have been rude if I knew it earlier.

  Eating with the young lady, father and daughter, seems to be like the scene where the father-in-law inspects the son-in-law, and it feels embarrassing to think about it.

  Just saying something is like splashing water, Zhou Anan can only knock down his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

   "What does uncle eat?"

  After sitting down, Zhou Anan asked with a smile.

  Since everything is like this, Zhou Anan should be more polite.

   "Just bring me a plate of fried noodles."

   Having seen the menu before, Zhu Qing chose a dish with an appropriate price.

  If he can invite his daughter to come here for dinner, the other party's conditions should be acceptable.

  The future son-in-law’s money is his daughter’s money, so save as much as you can.

   "Okay, waiter."

  Pressed the call button, Zhou Anan talked to the waiter, and then looked at the father and daughter sitting on the opposite side in embarrassment.

   "By the way, Xiao Rong, I can call you that."

   After taking a sip of water, the wily Zhu Qing opened up the topic.

   "Yes, uncle, whatever you want."

   "Xiao Rong, where are you from?"

   "Wuzhou Lizhou."

   "Oh, it's not far away. How many brothers and sisters are there in your family?"

"dad"

  Just when Zhu Qing wanted to continue getting to know each other, the blushing Zhu Huihui immediately interrupted the conversation.

   Is there any mistake? She just met the boy today, and her father interrogated him about his family situation like this. He really thought he was a blind date.

   "Oh, don't talk about this. Xiaorong, how did you meet our Huihui?"

   Seeing her daughter's shame and annoyance, Zhu Qing quickly changed the subject.

   These days, worrying about my daughter is tiring.

   "Dad, if you do this again, I'm going home."

   I didn't expect my father to ask so persistently, Zhu Huihui said angrily.

   "It's okay, Huihui and I met when she was working. I'm going to register for the business license of the training department today."

   Briefly introduced how the two met, and Zhou Anan, who introduced himself as a college student by the way, wanted to extinguish the uncle's gossip fire.

   It's not like she didn't have a blind date in her previous life, and this routine is very skillful.

   "The training department, it's not bad. It's very popular recently. My younger sister's daughter is in the third grade of elementary school, and she was sent to the training class by my younger sister. The market is huge."

   Unexpectedly, the other party was a young talent who started his own business, Zhu Qing's eyes lit up all of a sudden.

  As for the identity of a freshman, he subconsciously ignored it.

  Female junior, holding a gold brick.

  “.”

  What is the situation? Did this uncle pay attention to the wrong focus?

  Zhou Anan looked at the opposite uncle talking eloquently, and found that he couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

  He specifically emphasized his age just now, just to save the other party from bringing him and his daughter together, but the other party didn't care at all. He was so anxious about his daughter's marriage.

   Under Zhu's father's forced awkward chat, the original ordinary date was deviated from the direction of a blind date. Fortunately, after the fried noodles came, Zhu's father calmed down.

  After her father finished eating, Zhu Huihui and the boy opposite smiled, and forced her father to leave.

  Today, it is really embarrassing.

   "Okay, I'll come over and take a look."

  After sending off the young lady, sister, father and daughter, Zhou Anan strolled around the square, and then received a call from the decoration company.

   When he rushed to the decoration company, Zhou Anan took a look at the design drawings. It was simple and neat, and it was similar to what he expected, so he decided on the plan.

  After some haggling, finally under the pressure of Zhou Anan, who knew the price of the decoration materials, the decoration company signed the contract at a price of 45,000 yuan, which also included an additional fire escape staircase.

  Because the main groups we are facing are primary school students and junior high school students, we still need to pay attention to safety issues. This is also what Zhou Anan had previously greeted the landlord in advance. It seems that the landlord is quite happy to hear that.

  Originally, the decoration company wanted to reduce the price by 5,000 yuan on the condition of purchasing office materials uniformly, but Zhou Anan, who knew the depth of the water inside, decided to buy it himself.

   After all, the office supplies he wants to buy are not high-end luxury goods, and he can completely control the budget by himself.

  After paying a deposit of 10,000 yuan in advance, Zhou Anan, who still had a balance of 3,000 yuan in his bank card, got on the bus back to Lizhou.

  Running all the way, when I returned to Lizhou, it was already one o'clock in the morning.

   "Uncle Chen, are you sure you want to transfer?"

   At noon the next day, the takeaway order hadn't arrived yet. Zhou Anan couldn't help frowning when he heard the news that Chen Qi wanted to transfer to a barbecue stall.

  He had a simple understanding before that Chen Qi came to help him because he was running a restaurant at a loss. The transfer fee that Zhou Anan expected was not low, and the other party might not be able to bear it.

   To be honest, the price of this barbecue stall cannot be lowered.

  Not to mention the fixed profit of nearly 1,000 per day for night snacks, even the takeaway market he has worked hard to open up, the daily profit has already exceeded 1,500, and the total daily profit is basically more than 2,500.

  In order to eliminate the impact of the off-season on supper, Zhou Anan tried his best to open up a stable profit point, just to sell it at a good price when it was transferred.

  Nowadays, in this era when housing prices are still below 2,000, it is not an exaggeration to call this barbecue stall the hen that lays golden eggs.

  If it weren't for going to college and having a longer-term plan, Zhou An'an would be a little reluctant to sell the barbecue stall.

  Of course, it's just a thought.

"yes."

  After a few days of work experience, Chen Qi, who had previously opened a restaurant, knew how profitable this barbecue stall was.

  Just the takeaway for lunch and dinner is enough to make his heart beat, not to mention the big head of supper.

  During the break yesterday, Chen Qi and his wife discussed all night, and even made a decision to transfer the barbecue stall.

  After this village, there are not so good shops.

   "Then how much are you going to bid?"

   Without saying anything polite, Zhou Anan asked the price directly.

  He and this Uncle Chen have only known each other for a few days, and the relationship is not very close, so there is no need to talk about friendship.

  Price is king.

  Talking about feelings hurts money.

   "Twenty-two hundred and fifty thousand."

   Chen Qi, who originally wanted to bargain, looked at the calm eyes of the young man in front of him, gritted his teeth, and said the highest price he and his wife could afford.

  As a man with no income, and relying on his wife's salary to support his children, Chen Qi felt that he couldn't hold his head up at home.

  He really needs this career too much, and he must not miss the opportunity to prove that he is the pillar of the family.

  Mature takeaway mechanism, as well as a fixed source of customers, everything made Chen Qi crazy.

  As long as the current business is maintained, the monthly profit of the barbecue stand will be at least 30,000 yuan, 250,000 yuan, and it will take a little more than a year to make it back.

  At present, is there such a good business?

  Before anyone else noticed how profitable the barbecue stand was, Chen Qi had to take it down in one fell swoop, so as not to have long nights and dreams.
