Chapter 210: He looped back again to his original point, “You should open up another chain right under this building.” (2)



Lu Xun was still trying to be polite. “I couldn’t possibly.”

That being said. It’d be amazing if she’d deliver them to him.

He figured he’d just pretend for a little bit longer, and when she brought it up again, he would immediately accept her offer.

That’s when he heard her say with a smile, “That’s quite alright. There’s Dada.”

Lu Xun, “……”

“Technology is such a great thing. Same-city delivery by Dada takes only a little over 10 minutes. Guarantee it’d take less time than Executive Assistant Zhou.”

Executive Assistant Zhou felt another arrow to his knee. All he wanted to do was to cry.

Lu Xun gave Executive Assistant Zhou a stare.

Suddenly, as though something had occurred to him, he said, “Have you considered opening up a chain?”

“The business at your restaurant is so good with such long lines every day. You can ride this and open up another one in a different part of the city. If that works out, you can continue to open up more, even in other cities or other parts of the country…”

The more Lu Xun talked about it, the more he thought that was a great idea.

He pulled out his cellphone and clicked open the calculator app. “Look, your one restaurant’s revenue minus rent, utilities, labor…. is bringing in at least 30,000 yuan…”

“It’s doubled that now.” Lin Yiyi corrected him.

“…… Okay, 60,000 yuan. A second one will put you at 120,000 yuan. 10 shops mean 600,000 yuan. A chain of 200 restaurants national-wide means 12 million yuan a month. Now, if we can push it world-wide…”

Lin Yiyi, “……”

She was already dumbfounded!

“That being said, you will need a lot of capital to open up chain restaurants all over the country. That won’t work for everyone. You have money but not everyone does… if it was others, I’d recommend franchising. Others would only need to pay you hundreds of thousand yuan to become part of your franchise and all you will need to do is to provide technical support such as recipes that are specific to your restaurant. You will be able to make hundreds of thousand yuan for each new restaurant. Using that calculation, 200 restaurants over the country will mean tens of million yuan and if you push this to worldwide…”

He was certainly the boss of a big company. What an active mind he’s got!

Lu Xun didn’t feel quite done after that speech.

But he decided to stop while he was ahead and quickly looped back to his original point. “As such, you can always start with a second location and see what happens… I felt that nearby here is a good location. Two new commercial plazas had just been built and had reasonable foot traffic. It is also far enough from your other restaurant that they would not cannibalize each other.”

Finally, Lu Xun concluded, “Let me know if I can help with anything.”

Lin Yiyi, “….”

That was quite some brainwashing there. If he was to have a career change to be a salesperson, he could for sure earn a lot of blood-and-sweat money from many elderlies!

Even Lin Yiyi almost wanted to applaud him.

That being said…

“I don’t need more money.”

She only opened up the restaurant because she enjoyed cooking, alright?

Seeing that Number One Restaurant was so popular and having lines out the door everyday was a type of satisfaction that she could not describe with words.

Lu Xun frowned some, lowered his head, and gave this some thought before he unfurrowed his brows.

“You are right. You only opened up the restaurant as a hobby…”

Words had it that she’d head into her restaurant and cook there instead of carefully managing her big company Xinri Media. That meant the restaurant was just a hobby to her. It was her true love!

Guess his idea of luring her into opening up a chain below Shengshi Entertainment would be a flop…

“That being said, your mentioning of opening up a chain restaurant has given me inspiration.”

Lin Yiyi thought about this a little and decided to get some more ideas from the boss. “There are two chefs at my restaurant. We’ve hired them for top dollars. I felt that we would need to do something in order to keep them in the long run. If I open up a second restaurant, I will be able to have one of them at each location…”

Hearing that, Lu Xun’s enthusiasm returned right away.

“Have you ever heard of stock economy?”

He tried to explain it to her. “You can adopt a shareholding for your restaurant and give each of the chefs a number of shares. The more you make, the more they will make. They will never want to leave that way. Or, as you have said, open up a second location and have each of them run one of them. Each of them will have their own turf. That would only encourage them to work harder.”

Finally, he looped back again to his original point, “As such, you should open up another chain right under this building.”

“Exactly. Exactly. Close is better than far. You should open one downstairs.”

Executive Assistant Zhou, who really didn’t want to have to drive his Xiali around and still be criticized by his boss, figured that agreeing with his boss was his best bet.
