Chapter 126: New here, how dare you bully the seniors
“I have never seen so many people in any Internet cafe in Tu’ao in my previous life.”
In the lobby of the Internet cafe, Chen Xi glanced around .
Several students who were queuing sat on the armrests of other people's chairs, watching with envy the other people fighting fiercely in the game, and giving out a few commands from time to time.
In the previous life, although the popularity of Beyond Internet Cafe was good, it did not reach such a popular level.
Today, this internet cafe is more popular than all the internet cafes in Box Hill in its previous life combined.
Now, he suddenly wants to open a branch in the city center.
However, there is an old Internet cafe with good qualifications and good decoration, and the price is cheaper than his. In the past, competition could not take advantage of it.
In addition, the rent in the city center is relatively high. If Lao Wang didn't care about the rent issue, his Internet cafe would have been difficult to operate in the early stage.
You know, it’s hard to find a store in such a good location.
"When the time comes, we'll get a few more computers and fill in the negative layer."
Chen Xi thought for a moment, then said to Xiao Ming next to him. It's a shame that this empty room is not being used.
"Then where do they usually sleep?" Xiao Ming considered that Wang Li and others usually spent the night in the Internet cafe.
“When you have money, give them a car, and then go home and sleep.”
Chen Xi thought for a while, the cheapest second-hand car, the kind of Sakura that can barely be driven. The national car only costs a few thousand yuan, so just buy one for them to use when the time comes.
"I'm going to ask about the cram school. School is about to start, but there's no news yet."
Chen Xi asked Dongdong and Xiao Ming to help at the Internet cafe, while he walked towards Box Hill Food Court.
"Can your table be placed next to it? It's blocking the door of my shop. How can I get in and out?"
As soon as he arrived at the pancake stall, he saw Lao Zhang Zheng and a man next to him The boss argued.
The other party had so many tables, chairs and benches that they almost blocked the entrance of Lao Zhang’s shop.
"Can't you go in and out? Jinmi can go in and out!"
The middle-aged man who spoke Cantonese also personally showed Lao Zhang how to go in and out.
Although pedestrians can barely pass through the store entrance, everyone needs to turn sideways to pass.
This made Lao Zhang very angry.
"I have been working here for so many years, and you, a guy who just came to Box Hill, dare to bully me? Why don't you ask me who I am here."
Lao Zhang is tall and burly, exuding the masculinity of a northern man.
He has a ponytail on his head, which reminds people of the social style in Hong Kong movies decades ago.
He was wearing a slightly faded dark green T-shirt, but it did not affect the firmness and bulging of his muscles at all.
Facing the short, fat man in front of him who spoke Cantonese, Lao Zhang rebuked him mercilessly.
The other party's face showed a look of fear, and he was shocked by Lao Zhang's aura.
After a few mutterings, the other party had to move the tables and chairs away to avoid further conflicts.
“Look at your aggressive nature, Shunniao!”
Lao Zhang cursed and spoke in a dialect that Chen Xi couldn’t understand.
"Oh, so angry!"
Chen Xi walked over and patted Lao Zhang's shoulder gently, trying to ease his mood.
"TMD, this guy dared to bully the seniors when he first arrived, which made me angry. I told everyone in Box Hill not to eat in his restaurant."
Lao Zhang turned back angrily and glared fiercely. He glanced at the middle-aged man just now.
That shop is a comprehensive snack shop, offering a variety of food from breakfast to fast food, and even snacks such as egg tarts.
Chen Xi also ate there once in his previous life. He felt that only the cheapest luncheon meat and egg rice was palatable, and the other food was just average.
"Okay, okay, don't be angry. You are already old. The two of you are almost a hundred years old together. You are still quarreling. How are my affairs going?"
He pulled Lao Zhang to a chair aside and sat down, and began to ask about the cram school.
“It’s not over yet. Do you think that education is so simple? This matter is not done so quickly in China, let alone Tu’ao. The efficiency of work here is so slow, you are stunned. After so long, I should know it in my heart!”
“I know it too. , My expectation is to start the cram school before the end of the next semester, and the next semester will start soon.”
Chen Xi naturally understood what Lao Zhang said, so he started the cram school so early. As for the class, we just need to open the business before the exams next semester.
"I've been a little busy these days. You saw that guy just now. Let me call you and ask."
Lao Zhang took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.
"Hello...hmm..."
Ten minutes later, Lao Zhang hung up the phone. Chen Xi sat there and listened for a long time without hearing anything. The other party was talking there, and Lao Zhang responded with a grunt.
"The other party said that we would meet in the evening and bring your little brother with you. They want to see his professional level." Lao Zhang thought for a few seconds and then said.
“Can you tell me who the other party is?” Chen Xi asked.
"What?"
"You have to know the other person's personality and preferences when talking about business, otherwise it's not a bad thing to say the wrong thing."
"Well, you are quite thoughtful." Lao Zhang nodded.
“This guy used to be a teacher and worked in the same school as me. Later he went out to do business and was also engaged in the education industry. He has a cheerful personality but is unpredictable. He likes educated people. People..."
Lao Zhang recounted the information he knew.
"A cultural person? I am also a college student, so I can be considered a cultural person." "Hey, you will know when we meet tonight."
What Chen Xi said to Lao Zhang The intellectuals didn't quite understand. Lao Zhang just smiled and did not continue to explain.
“Why don’t your bakery sell the fruit juice shop next to it? Their business is not good and no one comes. Wouldn’t it be cool if you sell mutton skewers and spicy hotpot? Okay? That kind of thing is not difficult.”
Chen Xi told Lao Zhang what he had seen in his previous life.
In his previous life, Lao Zhang took over the shop next door and started selling barbecue and spicy hotpot.
With his unique taste and enthusiastic service, his shop has a prosperous business, and the brand Cake Xuan is gradually becoming known to the Chinese in Mocun.
At the same time, his shop also provides a variety of northern snacks, such as roujiamo, etc. These seemingly ordinary foods are very popular abroad, and the price is several times higher than in China.
Lao Zhang helped him a lot. When he first came to Tuao, there were relatively few Chinese people here. As a regular customer of the pancake stall, Lao Zhang always took care of him and often gave him some tofu bread or Give him food like meat buns.
Sometimes he even invited him to dinner for free, just to let Chen Xi chat with him.
Therefore, he also hopes that Lao Zhang's business will get better and better.
"Mutton kebabs? Do you have a boss? This is a shopping mall, won't the smell be too big?"
Lao Zhang's eyes turned to the store selling fruit juice, where the employees were sitting Concentrate on your book at the counter.
The business of this store is unimaginably poor, with almost no customers visiting.
"Install a high-power range hood. His shop is very deep, and the kitchen of your pancake stall is separated by a wall. No problem..."
Chen Xi told Lao Zhang about the store decoration and layout in his previous life.
After hearing this, Lao Zhang also felt that this idea was feasible and planned to try it.
"By the way, you are in the food business, you can try to open a chain milk tea shop."
Chen Xi suddenly remembered the popularity of the milk tea shop in Mo Village in his previous life. At that time, domestic The same is true, but the competition in Mo Village is relatively small, and there have not yet been several milk tea shops on one street.
"Oh, Wanwan milk tea? Or Cantonese style? Wouldn't it be better to drink that kind of thing in a tea restaurant?" Lao Zhang was a little confused.
"Make it a model like Boost, but the cost of this thing is very low. It can be sold at the same price difference as Boost. There should be a lot of people buying it."
At this time, there were no popular chain stores in Tu'ao. The habit of drinking milk tea is generally to taste Cantonese milk tea in tea restaurants.
Because Tu'ao people are relatively laid-back and have enough time to sit in the restaurant, read newspapers and drink tea.
Most consumers of bubble milk tea, which is similar to Yiduidu, are students.
After the 2008 financial crisis, the cost of going abroad will be much cheaper. At that time, a lot of people chose to study abroad. This thing can wait until later.
"I'd better fix the barbecue first. Let's do it step by step. The two of us can build the milk tea shop you mentioned."
Lao Zhang does not plan to open a milk tea shop now, and Chen Xi just mentioned it. After a while, he nodded and stood up.
"I'm going to find a friend, and I'll come over to you later. By the way, which hotel should I book for tonight? What's he drinking?" Chen Xi thought for a while and turned to look at Lao Zhang.
"Ha, you are bringing the domestic wine culture here? We have been here in Tu'ao for so long. If we don't do this, just sing and drink some beer." Lao Zhang waved his hand.
"Well, then you can find a hotel. I'll pay for it. Just do whatever you want and things will be settled."
"OK!"
Seeing Lao Zhang start to pick up his mobile phone to book a hotel, Chen Xi gently turned and left, heading towards the cram school.
“You feelme?”
“Can friends at the top of the mountain see it?”
“Friends at the bottom of the mountain, please speak the answer out loud!”
"Welcome to 2Future, hello everyone, I'm Matthew, do you remember me? Louder, I can't hear you!"
In the small building of the cram school, Chen Xi just stepped out of the elevator and came to the classroom The threshold captures Matthew’s iconic mantra in the classroom in his previous life.
“Pfft~”
He couldn’t help but laugh softly. It turned out that this mantra started to appear from now on.
"Well... I made you laugh."
Matthew, who seemed to be dancing and singing, saw Chen Xi coming and couldn't help but touch his head in embarrassment. Chen Xi had given him some living expenses before. During this time, his diet had improved greatly and he had gained more flesh on his face. Now that he is older, he can be described as sallow and thin.
"What are you doing? Do you want me to buy you a basketball?"
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Matthew didn't understand Chen. Xi's words.
"Well, this is a mascot of the NBA, good at..."
"Oh, I don't usually watch sports, why are you here suddenly?"
Matthew put down the courseware in his hand and walked to Chen Xi.
"There is a dinner party tonight, please accompany me there. Lao Zhang hired someone to be the principal of the cram school for me, and there are many application procedures that need him to handle..."
< br>"Huh? I don't know anything about dinner parties. It would be bad if I say the wrong thing."
When it comes to talking about things and socializing, Matthew can be said to know nothing about it and is not good at it at all. response.
"That person wants to test your professional level. You just need to answer the other person's questions about teaching."
Chen Xi looked at Matthew in front of him. Who would have thought that this guy was very capable in his previous life? I mean, I have good friends with all the big bosses.
"Okay." Matthew nodded. Although he agreed, his nervous expression was clearly revealed.
