Financial Freedom: My Golden Finger Has a Billion Points

Chapter 97 Buying a Restaurant
I still remember that when I was a child, my aunt would secretly give him money every time she went back to her parents' home.

All these past events came to mind.

We will have dinner at a restaurant at noon. My uncle likes to drink, so drinking at noon is indispensable.

When I arrived at the restaurant, I saw a notice posted on the door announcing the transfer of the store.

At this time, the waiter came up and asked curiously: "Didn't I hear that the sound of your restaurant is good? Why do you want to transfer it?"

"There are several partners in this store, and they have different opinions, so the store has to be transferred."

"Invite your boss over here. I have something to talk to him about."

"OK, just a second."

After the waiter left, his uncle and aunt looked at him doubtfully.

"Xiao Bu, what are you doing with your boss?"

"I want to buy this restaurant. Let's try the food here later."

"Xiao Bu, you have no experience in opening a restaurant. Isn't this too risky?"

"It's okay, I can afford to lose this little money."

After a while, the boss came over with a smile on his face.

"Brother, look for me."

"Yes, isn't your restaurant for sale? I want to buy it."

The boss's eyes lit up and he became even more excited. He had been in a bad mood recently due to other partners, and he had long wanted to close the business.

"Brother, what's your name?"

"Lu Xiaobu."

"Mr. Lu, to be honest, the business of this restaurant has been good because it is close to the nearby business district. At the beginning, I would not have chosen a partner if I had not had enough financial resources. Now this result is unexpected."

There is such a view in the business world. Everyone is saying that friends cannot do business together, otherwise the business will fail in the end and the friends will not be able to do it.

Some people outside the business community may question that friends are lifelong wealth. If we know each other well, wouldn’t it be reassuring to do business together?

In fact, this ignores the conflicts of interest that often arise when doing business with friends.

Going into business with friends may seem like a great idea, but in reality it's a mess.

Because as long as there are benefits, there must be risks. When doing business with friends, there may be profits or losses. It is difficult for friends to face both possibilities together.

Interests will bring instability, cause conflicts, and create unhappiness between each other that should not be there...

"Including buying this property and hiring the best chefs, I spent nearly 500 million. To be honest, I'm really reluctant to transfer it now."

As locals, they naturally know whether the restaurant's business is good or not.

"Boss, please give me a price, including how much this property and everything will cost."

"It's like this. If you want to buy the property together, then I will call my partners to come over and discuss it. Please give me some time."

"Well, we happen to have dinner here too."

"Then take it easy."

"Ah."

After the boss left, the waiters brought the dishes one after another. They tasted the dishes and they found they tasted really good.

"Little Bu, aren't you being too hasty in doing this? It's a multi-million dollar business, shouldn't you understand it?"

"Uncle, all I need to know is that this restaurant's business is really good. As for their bid, I don't think they dare to ask for a high price."

He and his uncle were eating vegetables and drinking wine, and his aunt talked about the past, remembering that in the past, their family was the poorest in the family, and his aunt had wanted to help him introduce a partner, but she immediately refused after hearing his conditions.

While they were eating, three people came, one of whom was the boss who had left before, and the other two were probably his partners.When they came up, they shook hands with Lu Xiaobu and the others. After sitting down, Lu Xiaobu had almost finished eating.

"Mr. Lu, if you want to pack this property together, then 600 million will be given to you."

"Guys, I sincerely want to buy, and you also sincerely want to transfer, so the most important thing is that the price is reasonable. If it is inflated, then this business may not be negotiated. The price is 550 million, if not, then it will be treated as a handover. To my friends, you can discuss it and give me an answer."

Several people looked at each other.

"Mr. Lu, we will discuss it before giving you the result."

"Please."

After they left, Lu Xiaobu and his uncle continued to drink and eat.

After a while, they came in again.

"Mr. Lu will do it at the price you said."

"Well, I'll have the lawyer come over now, and we'll go through the transfer agreement and the real estate transfer."

"Ok."

All the legal documents were completed in one morning, and the real estate certificate could be obtained in a few days.

They came to the bank to transfer money to their account, and now this restaurant belongs to Lu Xiaobu.

Taking their uncle and the others back to the restaurant, their uncle and aunt really saw how vigorous and resolute Lu Xiaobu's work style was.

The wages of the employees in this restaurant have been settled by the previous boss.

Now he gathers his entire staff together.

"This restaurant belongs to me now. Everyone, work hard. Starting from next month, everyone's salary will increase by two hundred."

Seeing them clapping excitedly, Lu Xiaobu dismissed the team and left the store manager alone.

"This restaurant will be managed by you in the future. I will give you [-]% of the shares. This can be written into the agreement. You have to work hard."

"Boss, I will." Seeing his excited look, Lu Xiaobu knew that money can make all the difference, and if you want employees to be motivated, you need equity incentives.

The restaurant was running normally, and my uncle and aunt were planning to go home at this time.

"Uncle, aunt, don't leave. Let's go into the office. I have something to say to you."

Come to the office.

"Xiao Bu, what do you have to say?"

"Uncle, aunt, do you know why I bought this restaurant?"

"why."

"I want to give you half of the shares in this restaurant. In other words, in addition to the real estate, you can share half of the restaurant's monthly profits from now on."

"Xiao Bu, how can this be possible?"

"Auntie, we know how you treated us since childhood. I can't give you money directly, but with this business, you will have a steady stream of income in the future."

"Xiaobu, this..."

"Uncle, you don't need to manage this restaurant. Let professional people do the professional things. You are now responsible for the procurement work. This procurement work is very important. As the saying goes, if the water is clear, there will be no fish. If it only takes up a small If it's cheap, just turn a blind eye and I'll pay you the same salary as the procurement work."

"Xiaobu, I don't know how to thank you."

"Auntie, please don't be polite to me."

Then, Lu Xiaobu asked the store manager to take his uncle to get acquainted with the restaurant.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Lu Xiaobu drove back directly and asked his uncle to take care of the restaurant.
