Chu Xian drove Xiao Ying to school, and stopped by the goldfish store for a bit before heading over to the aquarium store.
“Boss!” As Chu Xian walked in, Zhang Xiaohua walked up in her business casual attire and greeted him with a smile.
“How is business?” Chu Xian smiled back.
“Everything’s going smoothly. Some of the ornamental fish and shrimps have sold very well!” Zhang Xiaohua said, and reprimanded Chu Xian a little. “Boss, you need to come to the store more. Other than the two days you spent here during the opening, have you been over even ten times?”
“Keke, but I have you here. That’s right, you’ve worked hard these days, so I brought you a reward!” Chu Xian touched his head, and returned to the car to retrieve a handbag.
“Now, you can’t say I mistreat my staff!” Chu Xian handed her the bag.
“Wow! A designer bag! Thank you boss!” Zhang Xiaohua took the bag with shining eyes.
“En. Also, I’m heading over to Jing Hai in two days!” Chu Xian laughed and said.
“We are opening a store in Jing Hai?” Zhang Xiaohua replied excitedly.
“That’s right!” Chu Xian nodded. He thought for a moment, then spoke frankly.
“I have an idea. It’ll be difficult for us to open stores all over the country, so I think we can focus on stores in the big cities, then franchise out for other people to open places in the cities left.
“Franchise?” Zhang Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, and then she nodded. “this is a good idea, it’ll save us a lot of time and effort!”
“That’s right!” Chu Xian rubbed his head. “We don’t have the ability to open stores across the country. We can give up a part of the profit to earn money more quickly, and also meet people and build connections for the future!”
Chu Xian had thought a lot about franchising, and in the end he had made a decision. The aquarium business was very hot right now, but he couldn’t take the whole pie, so he was forced to leave some market to others. Franchising was the best method, and would guarantee that he still held on to the most profit, and generate a large amount of money quickly.
In the long term, compared to opening the stores by himself, this was much more relaxing, and far more suitable for a lazy guy like him!
“Okay!” Zhang Xiaohua nodded. Franchising the aquarium stores was a very good method. If they had to open the stores themselves in each city one by one, they would only manage a dozen a year at most, and would need four to five years to cover the country.
“Since you agree, we can start preparing!” Chu Xian immediately made the decision. “I’ll first prepare for the story in Jing Hai city, and we can set up headquarters there. You will be the general manager for Paradise Aquariums!”
“Ah? No, I can’t!” Zhang Xiaohua stuttered in surprise. “Boss, I’m just a designer, even if you ask me, I’m not capable!”
“Of course you are. Why wouldn’t you be?” Chu Xian shrugged. “In the future, there won’t be too much going on with the company other than calls for bids on franchises. There won’t be much else, oh, and you can also be the chief designer.”
“Fine, you’re right!” Zhang Xiaohua laughed. “Boss, you are burying me with work!”
“Heh, not at all.” Chu Xian shook his head awkwardly, and then changed the subject. “Oh, and how is the aquarium for the government going?”
“Boss, we finished it already a long time ago. Director Song complained that you never showed up the entire time we were designing the tank!” Zhang Xiaohua rolled her eyes.
Chu Xian laughed. “Hehe, I was pretty busy these past couple of days, I forgot!”
“They are very satisfied with our tank. I took some pictures and videos, you can take a look!”
“Good, good. Send them to me later!” Chu Xian nodded. “You can finish start preparing. We will head to Jing Hai together, and might stay for a day or two!”
“Okay boss!” Zhang Xiaohua nodded.
Chu Xian stayed at the aquarium store for a while, and got a call from Gu Li out of the blue.
“Gu Li, Big Brother, if you hadn’t called me I was already preparing to sell the sea cucumbers!” Chu Xian answered the call and joked.
“Haha, sorry about that Xiao Xian, I just got back from vacation!” Gu Li chuckled. “Do you have time to come by tomorrow, and bring over the sea cucumbers as well. I promise you’ll be satisfied with the price!”
“Okay!” Chu Xian nodded. With the gratitude that Gu Li owed him, Chu Xian trusted that he would find the price perfectly in order. Selling to him would also allow him to avoid all kinds of busywork.
After hanging up the call, Chu Xian left the store and headed over to the villa. Once there, he arranged for a car to come collect things early the next morning and transport them over to Jing Hai.
The next day, after Xiao Ying complained for a bit, Chu Xian took a plane over to Jing Hai city, and with a plastic bag in hand, headed over to the Gu Group Corporation.
The Gu Gropu was a large enterprise that ran hotels, sold internet software, and handled investments and other things. They had three listed companies, and were a very powerful group.
Chu Xian walked into the Gu Building and looked around with some jealousy. He wondered when he could have a skyscraper like this as the headquarters of his company.
He entered the ground floor hall and looked around. It seemed like everyone was good looking, whether they were the suited men, or the well dressed women, all of them in nice, formal apparel, all of them carrying a exuding aura of handsomeness and attractiveness.
Chu Xian couldn’t help looking over the group of tall and beautiful women. He was amazed! A big group corporation sure had it nice!
“Hey, Big Brother Gu Li, I’m inside your building!” Chu Xian took out his phone and called Gu Li.
“Okay, I will wait right here. You don’t need to send someone to accompany me, I can just wait in the hall for you!”
Chu XIan shook his head a little and checked the time on his phone. It was almost ten, and Gu Li actually hadn’t come to work yet.
He didn’t have much to do, so he looked over at where the handsome men and beautiful women were sitting and walked over. Killing time by appreciating the beauties was as good a choice as any.
“Hey, brother, are you also here to sign up for the auction?” As soon as Chu Xian sat down, a young man scooted over and curiously asked.
Chu Xian turned his head and replied in a confused tone. “En? An auction?”
“Yes, brother, are you not here for that? I thought with the way you dressed you were also here to sign up? So many people came today, the pressure is huge!” The young man was very friendly, and continued chatting.
Chu Xian smiled and nodded. “No, I am not here to sign up, I am waiting for someone!”
“Hehe, with your physique and your face, I was sure you were here to sign up. This is good, this is good. Since you aren’t going to sign up, I’ll have one less competition!” The young man laughed and joked pleasantly.
Chu Xian also laughed along in a friendly manner. This young man looked the most normal out of any of this group, and he was also a little on the shorter side. It was clear that he was a very outgoing person, but it was easy to notice that he was a little nervous.
“What kind of auction is this, and why are there so many people?” Chu Xian asked.
“You don’t know?” The young man looked at him in confusion. “This is the biggest auction Gu Group Corp only holds once a year! The items for auction will be among the most valuable in the entire world! Over these two days, many rich business men and powerful officials will come!”
“Oh?” Chu Xian was somewhat surprised and nodded along. He had not know that the Gu Group was holding an auction, and his mind jumped to his red coral, and a thought gradually formed.
“How do you sign up for the auction?” Chu Xian asked curiously.
“The Gu Group Corp’s auction will be held in a more casual manner,* they need ten female attendants and five male ones, and the salary is 800 a day. For people like me who live paycheck to paycheck, this is a really good opportunity. If my luck is good, I can even work as a model for the Gu Group!” The young man explained.
“Brother, do you have a friend working here?” The young man asked curiously.
“En, he works here. He’ll be here soon!” Chu Xian nodded.
“Cici, brother, look at that beauty, isn’t she stunning!” Suddenly, the young man grinned and made a strange noise, turning to Chu Xian and signaling with his eyes.
Chu Xian turned his head and, indeed, a very beautiful woman with long legs and big breasts.
“Tsk tsk, so beautiful, and look at her mouth, just…”
The young man’s comments made Chu Xian smile, and he very happily listened to the young man’s words.
Just as the young man was talking to the point that saliva was almost flying, he suddenly stopped.
Chu Xian looked over at him in confusion, and saw him standing up and straightening his tie.
“The leader from Gu Group Corp is coming over!” The young man saw Chu Xian’s confused gaze and said nervously.
Chu Xian laughed, and looked in the direction the young man was staring.
A woman walked over. She was probably also a model; here physique was excellent, and was very beautiful as well.
When they noticed the beauty walking over, everyone stood up.
“There is no time. I will pick fifteen people, and whoever I point out just come over here!” The Gu Group beauty said directly.
The young man beside Chu Xian gazed at the beauty from Gu Group expectantly, but as more and more people were chosen, he b became more and more crestfallen.
“The last one!” The beauty walked over to Chu Xian and the others and then pointed at Chu Xian. “The one sitting there. You all can come with me!”
“Eh!” Chu Xian was somewhat stunned, and he laughed and stood up. “Beauty, I apologize. I’m not here to sign up, how about this brother here in front of me. I think he can do it!”
“If you aren’t signing up, why are you sitting here!” The surprised beauty heard Chu Xian’s words and replied impatiently. She looked over the young man beside him. “All kinds of people dare to sign up!”
Chu Xian frowned at her words. “This is the hall, and I am waiting for someone. I’m not causing any trouble. And also, I feel like as a staff member of a big group, you need to act in a basic manner as well!”
The beauty’s expression changed, and her face reddened. “Did I say something wrong? We are the Gu Group Corporation, not some unknown little company. Since you aren’t here to sign up, you’re here to look for trouble. Get the hell out of here!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the young man’s face reddened, and he lowered his head in extreme embarrassment, tightly gripping his fist.
