I rely on the system to support my eighteen brothers and sisters

The shop was very big, with two floors, and was even bigger than Qiao Linxi's. But it was on the main street, so the rent was definitely not cheap.

"Boss, you have a very good plan. You have been encouraging me to open a shop here, and now you want me to rent your shop."

The man shook his head: "No, no, actually I asked Boss Qiao to come here because I have something else to tell you, that is... that is..."

The man seemed to have difficulty in speaking what he wanted to say. He stammered and kept rubbing his hands nervously.

Qiao Linxi saw that he seemed to be in trouble and was anxious to sell the shop. So she ignored his tricks and asked, "The shop is very good and the location is also very good. How much rent do you want? You tell me a number and I'll see if I can afford it."

"No, no..." The man waved his hands quickly, "That's not what I meant."

"then you……"

Qiao Linxi was surprised. If they were not renting a shop, then why were they calling her here?

"You are such a dullard..."

A middle-aged woman came in from the door. As soon as she came in, she kicked the man in the knee. She said, "You can't beat anything with three hammers. Why is it so difficult for you to talk about something?"

After scolding the man, the woman introduced herself to Qiao Linxi: "I am his wife. We did not ask you to come here because we want to rent the shop to you."

Qiao Linxi: "Then..."

"It's like this. My husband has been going to West Second Street recently. I thought he had a concubine, so I tortured him. Then he said he was going to eat. I was thinking, what nonsense is he talking about? Why would he go so far to eat? He said the food in your store is delicious, and he has never seen that kind of business model. In addition to eating, he also observed the customers nearby and saw some familiar faces, so he decided to let you come and open one."

"I originally said, since he knows how you run your business, why don't we just use your model to open our own business? But I am an honest man and said that this is not a good way to do it. So what we mean is that you come here to open a store, we won't charge you rent, but you have to give us dividends."

Qiao Linxi understood what the woman meant. She smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid that my business will fail and you will lose money?"

"No, no, your food is really delicious, and your store is always packed with people. It's impossible that there is no business. Even if there is no business, we won't lose money because the store is still there."

After saying that, the man looked at Qiao Linxi's reaction and asked, "It depends on whether Boss Qiao dares to open a store here."

"You don't have to talk to provoke me, I won't open a store here."

When the couple heard this, they looked at each other. Just as they were about to ask why, Qiao Linxi spoke again.

“Because this shop is owned by you.”

Qiao Linxi also came up with the idea on a whim. Instead of opening a branch herself, she might as well find someone to join.

"We open? You're not angry?"

Qiao Linxi: "You open the shop, and I tell you my recipes, which is equivalent to authorizing you. In the future, I will also release new products, and I will also tell you about them. You run the business on your own, which is considered as joining my Qiaoji Snack Shop. And I don't need to do everything myself, all I can get is a share of your profits."

After the couple understood what Qiao Linxi meant, they went aside to discuss it. Soon they came to a conclusion and agreed. Although it seemed that Qiao Linxi would make the most profit, in fact, the bulk of the profit was also in their hands.

Besides, Qiaoji Snack Bar has already become famous, and they will attract customers once they open the shop.

"We agree. But how much of the dividend do you want to take?"

Qiao Linxi said: "There are several types of franchise dividends. One is that all expenses are on me, and you only get a commission of the profits. The other is the other way around, you invest your own money, and I get a commission of the profits. Of course, you may feel that you are at a disadvantage. I just make the recipes and I don't have to do anything else, and I get the money. You need to work hard, and I have to share the profits. You can also consider renting the store directly to me. I will pay the rent."

"If you open a Qiaoji snack bar without my permission and use my business model, that would be infringement and I can sue you in court."

Qiao Linxi has been in Lanqing City for more than half a year. Almost everyone in Lanqing City knows that she has a good relationship with the county magistrate. If she were to sue the officials, surely her case would be successful, right?

"These two options are similar. One is that we don't have to pay and get less. The other is that we pay ourselves and get more. Both options require us to work hard, so it's better to choose to pay ourselves so that we can get more."

Seeing that the couple had reached an agreement, Qiao Linxi asked them to take paper and pen to write a contract, and assigned Qiao Linbao to go to the yamen to ask an official to come as a witness, so that if there were any conflicts in the future, they could ask the people in the yamen to resolve them.

Since they were opening the same store, Qiao Linxi required the couple to sell genuine goods at fair prices and also to open a gratitude account book so that those who were having difficulties in life would have a bowl of rice to fill their stomachs.

"Don't worry, I will make up for the loss in the gratitude account book. I just need you to record it truthfully."

Qiao Linxi also did not forget to collect gratitude points. Although she couldn’t use them now, it didn’t mean she wouldn’t need them in the future.

Coming out of East Street, Tong Yu and Qiao Linbao walked side by side. He gave a thumbs up to Qiao Linxi's back and said, "Boy, your sister is awesome. She glows when she talks about things."

"Of course, it doesn't matter whose sister she is. My sister is a fairy."

The reason why Qiao Linxi was so successful was because of the support of the business system.

After the branch store issue was resolved, Qiao Linxi thought about learning horse riding. However, Lanqing City was just a small county town and there was no horse farm, so Qiao Linxi had to give up the idea.

The couple were also action-oriented and they cleaned up the shop quickly. However, they still felt a little disappointed when they hung up the plaque.

The name of Qiaoji Snack Shop has the surname Qiao in it, but they don’t believe in Qiao, so it would be better if their names could be added.

But on the opening day, when they saw their names on the plaque sent by Qiao Linxi, their eyes were filled with surprise.

The words "Qiaoji Snack Shop" are very large, and in the lower right corner are the words "Second Branch" which are slightly smaller. Below the second branch are the words "Yongkang Store" written in gold.

Yongkang is a man's name, and it has a good meaning. Yongkang Yongkang means forever healthy.

"Oh, Boss Liu..."

On the opening day, Qiao Linxi also came. Seeing how popular the couple was, she knew that the store would be a booming business in the future.

"Yongkang Store, what a great name! Boss Liu's business will surely be booming."

Everyone who came gave red envelopes and congratulated Liu Yongkang on his prosperous business. However, Qiao Linxi was the exception. She gave Liu Yongkang the book "Northern and Southern Cuisine Encyclopedia".
