Catering God

Chapter 107: Chen Tiankuo was stimulated

As of now, "Maple Flavor·Potato Crisps" has finally achieved results. Next, it just needs to continue to consolidate resources and expand steadily.

Of course, for Jiang Feng, the most intuitive change is that he can finally make money without doing anything.

After fighting with "Abin Guoba Potato" for such a long time, the funds were severely depleted, so that only 800,000 yuan was left in the account.

After investing so much money, I can finally see the returns.

Just after the summary meeting ended, Jiang Feng received a call. When he looked at the contact person, it turned out to be Chen Tiankuo.

"Hey, Jiang Feng, I'm at the airport. Hurry up and bring Jingyu up to pick me up."

"Oh my god, you have such a big cigarette that you can't even put it out, and you need two of us to pick you up."

"what?"

Chen Tiankuo naturally didn't understand this classic Hanchuan dialect with a weird tone.

Don’t ask where Jiang Feng learned this. With Wang Tang, a native of Handu, in the dormitory, it’s hard not to be led astray by him.

hang up the phone.

Jiang Feng went downstairs with the car keys, called Chen Jingyu, and asked her to wait for him at the school gate.

"Doesn't he know how to take a taxi?"

As soon as she got in the car, Chen Jingyu pouted unhappily.

She was originally taking a comfortable nap in the dormitory. It would be strange if she was happy after being woken up.

"After all, he is your brother. For my sake, give him some face."

"Ok."

After a few minutes' drive, the two arrived at the airport.

Chen Tiankuo had obviously been waiting for a while.

Jiang Feng got out of the car to help him carry his luggage.

Chen Tiankuo was puzzled: "Why didn't they even give us a hug when we met? They should at least say 'Welcome to Handu'."

Jiang Feng stuffed the suitcase into the trunk and glanced at him, "You really have a lot to do."

Chen Tiankuo didn't think much of it. After sitting in the back seat, he was very excited to see his sister whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
"How about it, Jingyu, are you happy to see me?"

"generally."

Chen Jingyu's cold attitude made Chen Tiankuo's smile stiff.

Jiang Feng fastened his seat belt and couldn't help laughing: "You woke your sister up in the middle of her nap, and she's still not feeling well after getting up. I advise you not to embarrass yourself."

Chen Tiankuo was stunned for a moment, then crossed his arms: "Jiang Feng, I told you to come pick me up alone, but you insisted on bringing Jingyu with you."

"hehe."

Jiang Feng was blamed and didn't bother to argue with him. He then asked, "Where are you going next? I'll take you back to the apartment."

The two had talked before.

When Chen Tiankuo came to Handu, he happened to live next door to Chen Jingyu's apartment. Anyway, that floor had been bought by the Jiang family.

Chen Tiankuo is not the rich young man in TV dramas who can buy a luxury villa anywhere or live in a five-star hotel.

After all, just because Chen Tiankuo's father is rich doesn't mean Chen Tiankuo is rich himself. The start-up capital he brought with him this time, which he had finally begged for, will be used for his future business.

"Didn't you prepare a welcoming banquet for me?" Chen Tiankuo was very surprised.

"It's 1:30 in the afternoon now. What would you like to have for the welcome dinner?"

Jiang Feng was speechless.

Even Chen Jingyu beside him felt that his brother was too noisy. "Jiang Feng, just give him two bowls of rice-crusted potatoes."

It seemed like he was just trying to gag me.

"Oh, by the way, Jiang Feng, aren't you starting a snack bar in Handu? Take me to have a look."

Only after being reminded by Chen Jingyu did Chen Tiankuo remember this matter.

Obviously, he is still more interested in entrepreneurship.

Jiang Feng did as he was told and took Chen Tiankuo to the nearest Guoba Potato Shop.

It's right on the way to the airport. Just turn the steering wheel and you're there before you even step on the accelerator.

Chen Tiankuo got out of the car and looked at the decoration of the store.

Jiang Feng bought two servings of crispy rice potatoes, one regular version and one lava version.

Although he was the big boss, Jiang Feng still paid the money, after all, it involved accounting.

“It tastes pretty good…”

Chen Tiankuo ate the potato crust and nodded with satisfaction. Seeing that there were not many customers in the store, he asked Jiang Feng:
"What's the daily turnover of your store?"

"About a thousand yuan."

Jiang Feng didn't have a very deep impression of this directly-operated store. He had seen it several times in the financial report data compiled by Tang Wenjun, and it was considered to be a store with very average business.

"That's not bad, it's a lot of money in a month."

Chen Tiankuo nodded. For a rich second-generation like him, this amount of income was negligible. He said this just because he didn't want to undermine his friend's confidence.

Yes, Chen Tiankuo thinks he has high emotional intelligence.

He continued eating his rice-crusted potatoes and said with a smile, "Opening a few small shops like this and being able to be a hands-off boss is pretty easy, I think. I'm a little envious of you."

The last time they met during the National Day holiday, he only knew that Jiang Feng had opened three branches. Now he is not sure, and he is not embarrassed to ask directly.

After all, in Chen Tiankuo's eyes, Jiang Feng's business was just a small business of opening a few snack bars.

"It's almost there, it's quite easy." Jiang Feng nodded.

Chen Tiankuo finished a few bites of the rice-crusted potatoes and was about to throw the box into the trash can on the roadside when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the promotional slogan on the box.

"Maple Flavor Potato Crisps, a trendy brand with over 200 stores across the province..."

There is also a phone number below, which is the franchise hotline.

Chen Tiankuo was immediately amused. He threw the box into the trash can, picked up a bottle of mineral water, and while twisting it, he teased Jiang Feng:

"Your advertisement is really scary. You say you have 200 stores. If you don't know, you'll be really scared."

Obviously, Chen Tiankuo still thought that the advertisement on the packaging box was false propaganda.

"When advertising, you definitely have to brag. At least you have to attract customers..."

Jiang Feng explained with a smile, then spread out his hands:
"Although there are only a little over 190 directly-operated and franchised stores combined, it sounds better to say there are over 200."

"Pfft!"

Chen Tiankuo spurted out a mouthful of mineral water.

He looked at Jiang Feng in shock: "Mr. Duo?"

……

Chen Tiankuo in the car was obviously a little depressed.

He originally thought that Jiang Feng only opened a few snack shops. They were not very ordinary, but not very impressive either. At most, they were lower middle class.

But when he learned that Jiang Feng had 12 directly-operated stores and 186 franchise stores, he felt terrible.

"Jiang Feng, are you sure you didn't lie to me?"

Chen Tiankuo looked suspicious.

It seemed hard to believe. A few months ago, he heard from Jiang Feng himself that there were three directly-operated stores. How long had it been before this scale was achieved?

Even a rocket can't go this fast!

"Why would I lie to you? It's all in the newspapers and on the news. Go check it out for yourself later and you'll know."

Jiang Feng steered the car, ready to take Chen Tiankuo back to the apartment first, let him put his luggage down, and then go out for dinner later.

Chen Tiankuo thought for a moment and then asked, "So, how is your company's current revenue?"

"Not bad. If we maintain this momentum, our annual revenue will be around 1600 million. The gross profit margin is quite high, basically over 60%, because the bulk of our income comes from supply. I forgot to mention that we mainly engage in supply franchises, so once the number of franchise stores increases, our income from this aspect will be relatively high..."

While driving, Jiang Feng introduced the company's current situation to Chen Tiankuo in detail.

There is no intention to hide it at all.

Chen Tiankuo is both a good friend and Chen Jingyu's brother. If he were an outsider, Jiang Feng would not disclose the company's revenue data so easily.

And at this time.

After listening to Jiang Feng's speech, Chen Tiankuo only needed to do a simple calculation to figure out that Jiang Feng's current business could actually achieve a gross profit of over 10 million yuan a year.

Even after filing corporate tax and paying personal tax, the money that goes into Jiang Feng's own wallet will still be a very considerable income.

He suddenly fell silent.

Until Jiang Feng asked: "By the way, you came to Handu to do business this time. Did your father give you the startup capital?"

"Eight million."

"That's pretty good, too. I have much more funding now than when I first started my business. It's been a long road for me..."

At this time, the offense and defense are switched.

Jiang Feng looked like someone who had been through it all.

Chen Tiankuo is more like a rookie in the business world.

He couldn't be tough either.

After a few years of entrepreneurship, it seems that I haven't achieved any results.

Chen Jingyu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, sighed and said in an adult tone, "Tian Kuo, you should learn from Jiang Feng. If you were half as sensible as him, I wouldn't be worried about you squandering all of Dad's wealth."

Faced with the double attack from his own sister, Chen Tiankuo was speechless.

Then he silently opened the back window, and the cold wind rushed in, like a blade, scratching people's faces and making them hurt.

Jiang Feng couldn't help but shudder, very confused: "Why did you open the window? Aren't you cold?"

"I want some fresh air..." Chen Tiankuo looked at the cityscape outside the car window, hoping that the cold autumn and winter wind would dry the sad tears from the corners of his eyes.

Woohoo...this is too bullying...

……

Chen Tiankuo is obviously emo.

He went into the apartment and didn't come out.

Ben even suggested going out for dinner later to welcome him back, but he politely declined on the grounds that "the corpse was feeling unwell."

Looking at the closed door, Jiang Feng looked at Chen Jingyu beside him helplessly and complained:

"I told you to be quiet, why do you have to attack your brother? He is your brother, not your enemy."

Chen Xiaodao's kung fu is superb. Every word he says is so sharp that every sentence can turn into a knife that pierces people's hearts.

It hurts, it hurts too much!
Jiang Feng has a deep understanding of this.

Chen Jingyu was still confident: "It was obviously you who hit my brother hard, okay? You knew he was a loser, so why did you continue to provoke him?"

Boom!
A muffled sound of someone falling was heard from the room.

Jiang Feng knocked on the door quickly: "Tian Kuo, your sister didn't mean it. Children say things without restraint. Don't take it to heart. Don't get upset..."

When the bodyguard saw this, his eyes twitched under his sunglasses.

The power of these two people working together was so great that even Young Master Tian Kuo wanted to cry after hearing about it.

After trying for a while, there was still no movement from inside. Jiang Feng looked at the bodyguard next to him and said, "Why don't we just break the door? What if something happens to him inside?"

"Master Xiao Jiang, don't worry. When necessary, we will turn on the surveillance in the room to protect Master Tian Kuo."

This is the bodyguard's answer.

"Oh, that's fine too..."

Jiang Feng looked at Chen Jingyu and felt that there was not much point in staying here, so he took her away first.

In the elevator, the two of them were still bickering.

"Dead fish, you really need to be more careful with your words next time."

"No, it's you who keeps on talking about your achievements."

"I'm not showing off. I just knew your brother and I were both entrepreneurs, so I was just sharing my company's current performance with him. Who would have known..."

Jiang Feng explained, and suddenly became curious: "How many times has your brother started a business? Didn't he succeed once? Did he lose all that money?"

"I can't remember... Ever since my brother came back from studying abroad, he's been insisting on starting a business. If you don't stick with it, you won't be able to start a business."

Chen Jingyu shook her head and sighed.

It seemed as if he felt sorry for his miserable brother.

Jiang Feng also sighed, "The main reason is that I didn't know your brother was in this situation. If he had a little more ability, he wouldn't be so fragile."

"yes……"

As the two chatted, they suddenly reached a consensus.

Regarding Chen Tiankuo's psychological injury, it's not that the two of them were too harsh in their words, but that Chen Tiankuo was too naive and incompetent.

that is it.

After getting in the car, Jiang Feng suddenly remembered something else and raised his eyebrows at Chen Jingyu, "Oh, you dead fish, you have no reason to say that I'm poor now, right? If nothing else, at least compared to your brother, I'm pretty good, right!"

It's already this time, but Jiang Feng is still brooding over this matter.

It's not that he's naive.

After all, no one likes to be told that they are poor every day by a rich woman, let alone being called a gigolo.

Stand up and prove yourself!
Unexpectedly, Chen Jingyu stopped fastening her seat belt, frowned, and looked at Jiang Feng, very puzzled:
"Do you really feel so superior after defeating a fool?"

Jiang Feng was suddenly speechless.

The most hurtful thing about this sentence was not that Chen Jingyu was being sarcastic, but her genuine doubts.

When you are in the world, you will inevitably get hurt.

This sentence seems to be concrete.

It was Chen Tiankuo who suffered just now, and now it is Jiang Feng's retribution that has come.

Jiang Feng inserted the car key and started the car while asking:
"Jingyu, what color mask do you like?"

"Ok?"

"I just think that you're prettier when you're silent, and that our friendship will be better."

My Dumb Friend—written by Jiang Feng.

……

In the past, Jiang Feng didn’t want to be too conspicuous, so when parking, he would deliberately park farther away.

However, after the school handsome list appeared, the name of "Brother Benz" had already spread throughout the school.

I'm too lazy to go through so much trouble now, so I just park next to the school.

There are plenty of parking spaces around and you won’t get a ticket.

Back to school, it’s still early.

The weather was cold and it was not appropriate to hang around in the school, so Jiang Feng sent Chen Jingyu back to the dormitory first, and then went back himself.

If they want to have dinner together in the evening, please contact me then and Jiang Feng will come to pick her up.

After sending Chen Jingyu there, Jiang Feng couldn't help but sigh when he returned.

The rich little woman abused him a thousand times, but he still had to serve her obediently... No, why does this sound like a gigolo?
On the way back, Jiang Feng was still thinking that he had to buy a car next.

I feel a bit embarrassed to always drive Chen Tiankuo's Mercedes-Benz E.

At the time, I didn't have much money left, and I had to save some for business, and I also wanted to buy a car. Chen Tiankuo just happened to come to me, so I would have cheated him.

Now that my business is doing well and I have more money, I don’t feel any pressure to buy a car anymore.

Then I'll consider equipping the company with a car, so that it will be more convenient for me and Zhou Xiaoming to travel...

Jiang Feng was thinking about this, and before he knew it, he had already walked to the dormitory door.

When he pushed the door open, he saw that only Zhao Jiuguang and Wang Tang were in the dormitory.

One was playing games, and the other was curled up in bed holding his phone and chatting with a girl on QQ.

"Where's Huang Hao?"

Zhao Jiuguang: "I don't know. He must be out on a date with his girlfriend. He used to spend every day in his dorm fiddling with his crappy cell phone, but now he's nowhere to be found."

Ever since Huang Hao started dating, his side business of selling second-hand mobile phones has been affected.

I used to stay in my dorm room every day repairing second-hand mobile phones and thinking about how to sell them.

Now, I either go out to accompany my girlfriend, or my girlfriend asks me to go out to accompany her.

Naturally, I have no time to focus on my career.

Jiang Feng suddenly felt a little sorry and couldn't help but sigh: "As expected, falling in love will only make people regress."

His decision and will are correct.

Men should focus on their careers. If they only care about women, they will do other things and will not be able to focus on their careers.

Zhao Jiuguang curled his lips and retorted, "That's not true. In ancient times, there were so many successful sons-in-law. Finding a good wife and living off her was also a way to progress, wasn't it?"

Jiang Feng couldn't stand the words "living off a gigolo" lately, and sneered, "Isn't the emperor, your father-in-law, awesome? He passed the imperial examination with the highest honor, and he wants to be a consort. If you tell anyone about it, they'll laugh at you."

"How can you, a 985 student, compare with the top scorer?"

"The problem is that even my father-in-law can't compare to the emperor."

"Come on, I can't argue with you."

In the end, the debate ended with Zhao Jiuguang unilaterally admitting defeat.

As the winner, Jiang Feng began to express his victory speech in the dormitory:

"As the old saying goes, books are the ladder of human progress, while love is a burden that hinders human regression... Just look at Huang Hao. He even put his career on hold for love, and all he got in return was a fleeting moment of intimacy. Do you really envy him?"

Faced with Jiang Feng's soul-searching questioning, Zhao Jiuguang and Wang Tang looked at each other and then nodded.

Wang Tang scratched the back of his head. "Jiang Feng, you're right. But Zhao Jiuguang and I don't have careers. We're not in a relationship right now. Isn't it the same as wasting time if one of us plays games in the dorm and the other plays on his phone?"

Jiang Feng's eyes went dark.

Just at this moment, the dormitory door was pushed open.

Huang Hao came back, but his face looked a little ugly.

When the three of them saw this, they were all confused. What was going on?

"Lao Huang, didn't you go out on a date? Why do you look so unhappy? Did you break up?"

Wang Tang had just finished speaking.

Jiang Feng hit him on the head.

You kid don’t expect anything good from others, right? If Huang Hao, with his physique, rushes over to beat you up, I can’t stop him.

　　"You have a big cigarette, can't you put it out?"

　　Cigarette crust refers to cigarette butts.

　　How big is your cigarette butt that you can’t even put it out by stepping on it?

　　It is usually used to satirize someone who is exaggerated, frivolous and demanding, or to mock someone who is too high-profile.

　　For example, your friend says to you, "I'm coming back from out of town today. Please prepare good wine and delicious food for me and welcome me on time."

　　You can use this sentence to annoy him.
