Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

Although the boutique belongs to Xu Wanning, Tang Ting has been there since its opening. It is like witnessing the growth of her own child. If Tang Ting were asked to let go, she would definitely be reluctant.

But Tang Ting was unwilling to take advantage of Xu Wanning for nothing.

Chen Qiaoqiao advised: "Tingting, just listen to Wan Ning's arrangement. Since she has made this decision, it means that she has already thought about it. Otherwise, the boutique will have to close down."

Under the joint persuasion of Chen Qiaoqiao and Gu Meng, Tang Ting had to agree to Xu Wanning's arrangement.

"But I don't want 30% profit, I just want 20%."

"30% is what we agreed upon, and it cannot be changed easily."

"I said I only want 20%!"

The two men quarreled again over profit sharing.

As they argued, Xu Wanning and Tang Ting both laughed.

"Others are arguing over how to get more profit, but you two are the only ones who are willing to give up the profits. How about this, everyone should take a step back. Wan Ning should stop insisting on 30%, and Ting Ting should stop insisting on 20%. Just go with 250% of the net profit."

Chen Qiaoqiao's proposal was unanimously approved by Xu Wanning and Tang Ting, so the contract was signed.

"Okay, the matter with Tingting has been discussed. Next, I will talk to Mengmeng."

"Me?" Gu Meng pointed at the tip of her nose and said, "Wan Ning, do you want to cooperate with me too?"

"OK!"

"But what can we cooperate on?"

Xu Wanning smiled and said, "I heard you say before that your family is from the countryside and you raise a lot of chickens and ducks, right?"

Gu Meng nodded: "Since the policy was opened up, my parents have indeed raised a lot of chickens and ducks to improve the living conditions at home."

No, to be more precise, I raise a lot of hens.

After all, for people nowadays, hen soup is very nutritious and can also lay eggs. Raising hens is a business that is sure to make money as long as there is no large-scale chicken plague.

As for roosters, a few are good, and the number of ducks is not that large.

"I've eaten the stir-fried rabbit you made, it's delicious. Frankly speaking, even if I'm a pretty good cook, I can't replicate the stir-fried rabbit you make back home one-to-one. I have an idea that can improve your family's conditions, would you like to hear it?"

Hearing this, Gu Meng immediately sat up straight, "Of course I want to listen!"

"Go back and talk to your parents about raising more rabbits, and turn the stir-fried rabbit meat into cold rabbit."

Cold-eaten rabbit is a specialty snack in Sichuan and Chongqing. Even Xu Wanning, a chef, loves it.

"This..." Gu Meng hesitated: "It's not impossible, but the problem is that almost every family in our area can make it. Even if we make it, we can't sell it!"

Even if it can be sold, the sales volume will not be too high.

"What if you sell it to me?"

"sell to you?"

Xu Wanning nodded: "You don't have to worry about sales and transportation. You just need to be responsible for production. When you go back this time, bring two vacuum machines with you and make cold rabbit according to my method. It would be best if you call me later and I will ask my third brother to help transport it to Beijing."

"I will be responsible for opening up sales channels for you. If sales are good, your family can start by setting up a small processing plant. Once the business becomes bigger and stronger, you can expand the scale."

Xu Wanning's words made Gu Meng eager to take action.

Her family conditions were not very bad, but that was only compared with other families in the surrounding area. Compared with the truly wealthy families, they were still far behind.

Although she has secured a job and will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life as long as she doesn't do anything stupid, she still has brothers and sisters at home.

Especially since my two younger brothers are still unmarried, the bride price is a huge expense.

She also has a younger sister, and she also wants to give her a generous dowry.

Although she had several thousand dollars in savings and could fully afford the expense, she felt that it was better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.

If Xu Wanning's plan works...

No, it will definitely work!

She had a mysterious trust in Xu Wanning, and believed that whatever Xu Wanning wanted to do would succeed.

What if it doesn't work? At most, it's just a try!

"Okay, I agree. I'll tell my family about this when I write to them these days, and ask them to raise the rabbit first."

It's just National Day now, so she won't be back home until after November 20th.

The gap of forty to fifty days is enough for the family to raise a batch of rabbits.

"I'll give you two thousand dollars as an initial investment. You..."

"No need, Wanning." Gu Meng rejected Xu Wanning's kind offer: "Although most of my savings have been used to buy a house, I still have a few thousand dollars left, so I can definitely afford it."

Since it is a business, she must be prepared to take risks. It doesn't make sense to let Xu Wanning take this risk for her, right?

At worst, if she doesn’t have enough money in the future, she can just shamelessly borrow money from Xu Wanning.

But even if she has to borrow money, she has to wait until the business is on track. Only in this way can she ensure that she has the ability to repay the money.

Seeing this, Xu Wanning didn't force it anymore.

"The only one left is Qiaoqiao."

Chen Qiaoqiao looked at Xu Wanning eagerly.

Her material desires were not too high. In fact, with the salary from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, she could fully support herself.

At least that’s what Chen Qiaoqiao thought before the summer vacation.

But she gave her parents 2,000 yuan in child support, bought a house and still owed money. Although she earned some money in the past month, after paying it back to Xu Wanning, Chen Qiaoqiao had less than 300 yuan left in total.

In the early 1980s, three hundred yuan was considered a considerable amount of savings, and at least half of the families in Beijing could not afford it.

But after Chen Qiaoqiao experienced a major change in her life, she became extremely insecure. If she didn't have money, she always felt that she would fall into endless darkness.

So, after learning that Xu Wanning also had arrangements for her, Chen Qiaoqiao immediately looked at Xu Wanning eagerly, wanting to know what she could do.

"To be honest, I don't have any good plans for you. But we can do business together like a boutique, and we can open a store together."

Opening a store together?

To put it bluntly, isn't she just continuing to take advantage of Xu Wanning?

Her situation is different from Tang Ting's. The nature of Tang Ting's job allows her to spend plenty of time on the operation and management of the boutique.

But once Chen Qiaoqiao goes to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, if she wants to gain a foothold there, she has to work hard. She has very little free time every day, so how can she have the energy to manage a store?

Xu Wanning bears the risk and makes the profit from it?
