Chapter 140 Today is your time, Chan

How can a captain who has seen big winds and waves worry about small waves?

Cheng Daqi did not panic, he chose to learn from Xizong to break the situation.

Clear the area first and control potential dangerous factors.

"Lao Li, just braise it in braised pork. Sorry, I'll receive my friends first."

Following Li Haiping's words, Cheng Daqi fooled Lao Li back into the kitchen with a few casual words.

Turning to look at Eris, now, he needs to show that nothing happened.

"Ha, thank you for the wine, Lille, you will sit down too."

"Chan, I talked to the people over there, is it convenient for us to chat?"

Eris looked at the open balcony outside the large French window of the living room and added.

"It's not very convenient here."

"Understood, come with me."

Under Sani's doubtful eyes, Cheng Daqi took Eris directly to his bedroom.

It is indeed a bit strange for two men to go to the bedroom.

——

"Chan, I just said let it go. The cost price they gave me is 17,000, but as a middleman, I also bear the risk. The profit is not excessive, right?"

Eris came up and let me go. A big move, he made it clear that his profit per order was only one thousand.

His sincerity is full of reservations. In fact, he can earn 3,500 per order.

"Of course it's not too much, Mr. Eris."

Bringing Eris a glass of beer, Cheng Daqi sat across from the West Coast Dream Chaser boy.

The bedroom he occupied was the largest in the house.

The bedroom not only has a separate dressing room, but also two sofas, which are just convenient for them to chat.

“Two thousand dollars is actually a small amount of money. What I thought at the time was that it’s not easy for you either.

Chan, I watched you take root in the United States step by step. We They are friends.

So I will give you the profit. As for me, I will talk to those people and let them reduce the price they offer me.”

After picking up the bottle of cheap beer and looking at it, Eris put it down again.

“But the negotiation did not go smoothly. The order for twenty people was still too small, and their price was very high.

The key to the problem now is on your side, can you bring it? How many orders are there?”

“It depends on the courage and ability of those people. The number is not a problem, the question is are they bold enough?”

Concern about Eris? , Cheng Daqi did not feel the slightest surprise.

We negotiated the price last time and only established a preliminary framework for cooperation. Now it’s time to work out the details.

Eris pondered for a moment and replied.

"You said before that you could attract a large number of people here. Do you have a large number of 500 people?"

With a sneer, Cheng Daqi straightened his body slightly, He looked at Eris with a sense of oppression and said playfully.

"Then they are indeed a bit timid."

Did you hear me scolding you?

Did you see it, I’m trying to slap you!

This is also a test, using offense to test Eris' true attitude.

"A thousand people?"

Eris doesn't care about the offense in Cheng Daqi's words and actions. He is a qualified businessman who only sees profit.

"Still small!"

"Two thousand people?"

"Absolutely. From the time we negotiated to now, in less than two days, my collaborator has already found nine people "

Cheng Daqi didn't dare to increase the amount. When Eris called two thousand, he stopped in time.

Just come up, don’t use too much force.

We must first give the other party sufficient psychological expectations. After working together for a long time, the relationship will become smoother, and it will not be too late to further deepen the cooperation.

“You talked to me yesterday morning, and now you have nine customers?”

The West Coast Dream Chaser boy obviously doesn’t know what China’s speed is, and he was impressed by Li Haiping’s high efficiency I was shocked.

‘To be able to find nine customers so quickly, Chan’s collaborator is also a strong person.

The short-sighted Eris didn’t know that the cook he just saw was the ‘partner’ in Cheng Daqi’s words.

Little did he know that he had forever missed the opportunity to skip the middleman.

"Yes, so can you waive the bill for me to handle the identity issue?"

Eris is obviously caught by this big carrot, Cheng Daqi is now acting in the capital He stopped acting and directly made his request.

Xiao'e, give you a chance to show your generosity and grace.

Give me a free order.

"Okay, but you have to find enough first. I'll help you do it tonight!"

Eris understands.

Watching Cheng Daqi’s rapid rise from the bottom step by step, he was even a little dizzy.

Now, he decided to sell another favor to Cheng Daqi before it was too late.

If we can really attract a thousand or two thousand people in the future, that will be a profit of millions of dollars!

Previously, he had always had doubts about Cheng Daqi's cooperation.

It’s not that he thought Cheng Daqi would lie to him, Cheng Daqi didn’t have the courage.

What he is worried about is that Cheng Daqi's strength is not as strong as he boasted.

But when I visited today, I saw that it is a big house and a professional chef. Cheng Daqi is really quite capable.

Even if Cheng Daqi’s current clothing, taste, and wealth accumulation are far from being considered a real boss, Cheng Daqi’s potential is there. Eris is a good person, and he can see it clearly. .

"Mr. Eris, let's drink to cooperation?"

Cheng Daqi said with a smile while holding up the inferior beer that Eris disliked.

"Okay, well, the cooperation went well!"

Wrinkling his nose and taking a sip of beer, Eris put down the beer can.

Glancing at Eris, Cheng Daqi didn't say much.

However, after seeing Eris's flexible principles and bottom line, he looked forward to the day in the future when Eris would actually stand up and toast him.

Before, when this man cooperated with him, he would threaten him every time and pinch him every time.

This is different from Thor.

Thor is a fool, Eris is contempt!

Cheng Daqi may not care about fools, but he will not forget his arrogant contempt!

"Let's go down first, another friend is coming too."

Thoughts were surging in his heart, but Cheng Daqi had no intention of showing it.

“How many people did you invite today?”

“About a dozen, all friends I met after coming to the United States.”

——

"Domo, my friend, you are the soul of the party, are you ready to show off your skills?"

The arrival of Fat Chef was actually a bit unexpected. Yesterday, Cheng Daqi contacted Domo on social software At that time, a reward of 300 knives was given.

But this fat man with good cooking skills actually said on the spot that he would not charge any cents and was willing to come and help for free.

The Fat Chef is indeed very generous, so of course Cheng Daqi must give him enough respect.

"Thomas? Why are you here?"

It was Eris who spoke, and the West Coast dream boy was very surprised that Thomas would show up at Chengdaqi's house.

"Mr. Eris, why are you here?" Big eyes stared at small eyes, both of them were surprised.

"Well, you actually know each other. Sure enough, there is a reason why you can be friends with me. This is all God's arrangement."

Accidents always happen When it came unexpectedly, Cheng Daqi dealt with it very easily.

However, in his heart, his recognition of Domo increased by one level. The identity of this fat cook seemed not to be simple.

Eris deals with real big guys from all walks of life. He is an agent serving the big guys, a gray glove.

"Chan is one of my partners, probably, what about you?"

Looking at Cheng Daqi, Eris asked Thomas.

This old man is a little confused now.

Chan, are your ways so wild?

"I'm also a friend of Chan. I came here to help him barbecue today. I recently opened a restaurant."

Domo said, rubbing his belly a little awkwardly.

Eris nodded and didn’t ask any more questions. Keeping silent was his professional instinct.

"Okay, Thomas, come to the kitchen with me first. I have prepared several kinds of meat. You can see how you want to arrange it."

When the situation is unclear, just act according to the pre-plan.

Cheng Daqi chooses according to the plan first.

Li Haiping is busy in the kitchen processing oysters. These cute little things are useful to eat, but a little troublesome to make.

"Mr. Cheng, who is this?"

The appearance of Cheng Daqi and Duo Mo made Li Haiping a little strange.

What, are you two here to supervise the work?

Or, does this fat man want to eat meat first?

"This is also a friend of mine. He came over to take charge of the barbecue part, the backyard BBQ."

Taking out the meat from the refrigerator, Cheng Daqi asked.

"How do you and Mr. Erris know each other, Thomas?"

The fat cook rubbed his hands and replied angrily.

"He has some cooperation with my father. Do you know what kind of business he is in, right?"

In fact, Thomas is also a little confused about the situation. Eris helps his father run the election. people.

How could Eris be related to a guy like Cheng Daqi who eats one-yuan burgers?

He is just fat, not stupid. Eris is obviously a cross-border brother who takes both black and white, and he is also the kind who talks and laughs with his father.

Although Cheng Daqi lives well, he actually chooses a one-yuan burger restaurant for meals.

Logically speaking, these two kinds of people will never intersect.

"Of course I know what he does, so is your father also voting?"

Taking out the barbecue picks, Cheng Daqi said while motioning for Domo to come over and help. .

"Yes, my father was fighting for a seat on the city council with a lawyer, and Mr. Eris helped a lot."

Cheng Daqi and Duomo were skewering meat and chatting calmly.

Li Haiping’s hands trembled when he washed the oysters, and they became more energetic the more he washed them.

Just now, he had a little doubt whether Cheng Daqi was bragging. Now, he just felt that he had embraced a golden thigh.

Li Haiping has reached the age where he knows his destiny. He has met many powerful people in China and the United States, but those people didn't even bother to look at him.

Cheng Daqi is also a very powerful person.

Li Haiping confirmed this when he saw that not long after Cheng Daqi came to the United States, he was able to accept two black men as his younger brothers.

But there is a difference between being very powerful and very powerful.

It is very powerful to be able to break a tree as thick as an arm with one kick, but this kind of power is of little use, because no matter how powerful you are, you can't dodge bullets.

The greatness of Cheng Daqi is not how strong his force is, nor is it how big his weapon is.

In Li Haiping's view, the most powerful thing about Cheng Daqi is that it has built up such a big momentum and gathered so many people in such a short period of time.

Recruiting a black boy is nothing, but daring to do business of buying and selling identities is really powerful. What is even more powerful is the meaning behind this courage.

Cheng Daqi told him before that as long as he did not leave Shengluo City, nothing would happen. Li Haiping thought that Cheng Daqi might be bragging, but now, he believed it.

Today’s party only has three guests, and there are already two very powerful ones. What about the others?

Li Haiping is looking forward to it.

Brushing the oysters hard, Li Haiping felt that he was not looking forward to other guests at the party, but looking forward to something else.

For example, it seemed that he really had the opportunity to hold a thigh and fly into the sky with the boss.

He has heard so many awesome stories and seen so many awesome companies and people, but none of them have anything to do with him.

Li Haiping is just an ordinary middle-aged man who has earned some money through years of hard work.

Even if he buys a great house, when decorating it, he still has to lay the floors himself, just to save some money.

When he was young, he missed many opportunities. At that time, he only felt insignificant.

He always thinks that he is still young and more and better opportunities are waiting for him ahead.

At the age of fifty, knowing his destiny, Li Haiping finally saw his destiny.

That boring and mediocre life that can be seen to the end.

So, even if he was humiliated by Cheng Daqi, even if he was oppressed by Cheng Daqi, he would still shamelessly follow Cheng Daqi to make money.

Because Cheng Daqi allowed him to see a possibility.

For a fifty-year-old middle-aged man, possibility represents danger, and Cheng Daqi also clearly informed him of the danger.

But Li Haiping still wanted to take a gamble.

Obviously only two days have passed, but he can no longer remember what he thought when he agreed to cooperate with Cheng Daqi the day before yesterday.

Is it the mentality of wanting to be compensated in other ways after being humiliated and taken advantage of?

Or do you see an opportunity to make money and jump in greedily?

Li Haiping didn't want to think about this. He put the oysters into the steamer and closed the lid.

Now, it’s time to make the next dish.

————————

The sliding floor-to-ceiling window is both a window and a door. After the window is opened, the open balcony is directly connected to the living room.

Set up the barbecue on the balcony, and Thomas will be responsible for the rest.

"Leave it to me. It's been almost twenty years since I learned how to barbecue when I was six years old."

The fat chef patted his chest and assured that he was confident in his cooking skills, otherwise he wouldn't have Dare to open your own food truck.

"Any new ideas for a burger restaurant? Since the last time we talked?"

Cheng Daqi asked, leaning against the glass window.

“What we talked about last time was about how new catering brands can break through the blockade of traditional catering chain companies in terms of marketing, build their own popularity, and gain a certain market share. I have been studying this period. .

After reading a lot of research reports and cases, I now feel that opening a restaurant is a dead end and I don’t want to do it anymore. "

I know that I have to do this, but I don't dare to do it after knowing it. This is the mentality of Thomas now.

"Chan, the one named Lisa is here, come here. "

The black girl ran to the balcony entrance to remind Cheng Daqi.

Cheng Daqi said helplessly to Domo.

"Let's have a good chat later. I'll go pick up my friend first."

The fat cook said with a smile.

"Of course, go ahead, today is your time, Chan."
