Peninsula Landlord

Chapter 13: Gym Encounter

At Huang Xu’s home in Jiangnan District.

Huang Xu looked at the opinions he had just sorted out and the message that Sunny sent to him after she went back, complaining about eating too much at night and being dragged by Kim Taeyeon to exercise, and he couldn't help but laugh.

It is for this reason that he understands that the spicy hotpot and mala hotpot he makes are indeed good, at least they suit the tastes of the people here.

"Then the follow-up plan can begin."

So he started making a plan and collecting information the next day.

You know, setting up a restaurant is a very troublesome thing, not to mention that he is planning to set up a franchise chain enterprise, so the problems he needs to deal with will be even more troublesome.

He spent two whole days on it and only came up with a rough framework.

I have absolutely no idea about the details inside.

And the more I do it, the more problems I feel like there are that need to be dealt with.

The first is the company's structure, which is very troublesome. It is not as simple as registering an individual business like a store. It requires several levels of structure.

The first is to be divided into a brand management company, which is mainly responsible for authorizing franchise stores and collecting franchise fees, management fees and so on.

The second is the supply chain company, which is responsible for providing various ingredients, consumables and equipment.

The last step is to establish a comprehensive management company to be responsible for the comprehensive operation and management of the stores.

Even these companies cannot be established just one, but several.

The reason why he went through so much trouble to establish a three-level structure was to avoid trouble later.

Although Huang Xu has never done this kind of business model, he has seen the routines and gameplay of domestic celebrity franchise stores in his previous life.

Originally, this information was not known to outsiders, and Huang Xu should not have known this information.

However, the development of short videos has led many people to dismantle the structural models of various companies in order to attract fans and engage in commercial monetization.

And it was because of this that he gained a little understanding of this industry.

But just understanding is of no use.

Not only are there many specific things involved, but they are also very complicated, and all the aspects involved are very fragmented.

After two days of sorting, Huang Xu felt like giving up.

Mainly because it's too much trouble.

Looking at the various files organized on the computer, Huang Xu couldn't help but smile bitterly while holding his head.

"It seems that even if I was reborn, my abilities have not been enhanced?"

It was at this time that Huang Xu truly recognized himself.

I can't be like the protagonists in the novels I read in my previous life, who believe that they can have abilities that they didn't have in their previous life just by being reborn.

He was still the ordinary person in his previous life. After his rebirth, he did not become stronger than before, nor could he master some abilities that he did not have.

I can only rely on the memories in my mind and be a speculator.

After thinking all this through, Huang Xu completely gave up on doing this.

After all, professional things still need professional people to do it.

You definitely can’t do it on your own.

Huang Xu then stood up, feeling his body a little stiff after sitting for two days, and prepared to move around.

And this time he did not train on the treadmill at home, but came to the gym inside the community.

He had never been to this gym again except for two visits when he first moved in, because the environment here was very different from what he had imagined.

Before coming here, he thought he would be able to see a lot of beautiful women here, but he was greatly disappointed after arriving.

There are more men here than women.

Later I learned that although the women here like fitness very much, they rarely go to the gym. Most of them go to yoga and Pilates studios to lose weight and shape their bodies.

So in general, gyms are still dominated by male customers.

The reason why he came here today was that he wanted to do some strength training and maintain his figure.

Due to his overeating and frequent visits to bars and nightclubs, he now has a small belly.

This is something I didn't have in my previous life. In my previous life, I worked in a restaurant for a long time and exercised a lot every day, so I didn't have problems with my body shape.

At the same time, I also want to exercise my body well.

As a person who has initially achieved financial freedom, Huang Xu does not want to have any health problems that affect the quality of his future life. That would be bad.

Especially after that crazy night in the nightclub a few days ago, he started to worry about his physical discomfort the next day.

Therefore, in order to have a happy life in the future, he has to start paying attention to physical exercise.

After he changed his clothes and came to the community gym, he found that there were not many people exercising here because it was afternoon.

Looking roughly, there were only three or five people.

However, he did see an "acquaintance" here. Tara's Park Hyomin was doing equipment training in the gym.

Huang Xu stood in the distance, looking at her wearing yoga pants and doing weighted hip bridges, and couldn't help but sigh.

"As expected of you who are famous for your good figure!"

You have to know that in the Korean entertainment industry, the current aesthetic standards are still relatively normal, although in order to make idols more photogenic, the agencies will require idols to be thinner.

But if you really have a very healthy body, many people will buy it.

Haven’t you seen Kim Seolhyun a few years later? Isn’t she loved by many manufacturers because of her good figure and even jumped directly from a member of a girl group to the queen of advertising?
It is completely different from the morbidly thin aesthetic of later generations.

Even some female idols who are a little bit fat will be criticized by their fans.

However, Huang Xu only looked at it for a few seconds, then looked away and prepared to start his own training.

After warming up on the treadmill, I went to the strength equipment area and prepared to practice squats and crunches.

According to the information he learned, if men want to have a happier life in the future, they must train their core strength and hip and leg strength well.

These have huge benefits for married life.

Just as he began to figure out how to use the squat rack based on a video he had watched before, he didn't notice that there was someone standing behind him.

"Landlord, do you need any help?"

Huang Xu then turned his head and saw Park Hyomin standing behind him.

She had just finished exercising, and the short-sleeved shirt she was wearing was soaked and stuck to her skin.

Because of this, Huang Xu could even see the black underwear and her hot body through the wet T-shirt.

Seeing Park Hyomin wanting to help, Huang Xu naturally would not object.

"Okay, thank you, Hyomin."
