Xu Bo'an nodded and asked Chen Pingping curiously: "What are you doing at the bank? Can you tell me?"
Chen Pingping smiled at Xu Bo'an and said: "Look at what you said, I can still treat you Is there anything inconvenient to say? Of course it’s convenient. In fact, I went to the bank for a happy event!"
Chen Pingping paused for a while, looked at Xu Boan with admiration, and said, "I'm asking you. "Dear blessing, I plan to open another clothing store!"
Xu Bo'an said with a smile: "That's good. Where is the new store? Have you found it?"
Chen Pingping nodded. , said: "Actually, I didn't have this idea at first. It happened that a store not far from me could no longer operate. I was about to make a withdrawal. I had already negotiated with him, but I didn't expect that the mobile banking transfer failed. It is said that the upper limit has been reached,
I called the bank to consult and found out that large-value transfers were restricted. I thought I should go to the bank to enable large-value payments. Then apply for a loan together to cover the subsequent renovation and purchase of goods. "
Xu Bo'an nodded after hearing this and said: "Then I have to congratulate you. The store has even opened its second store. It seems that the business is still very good. I didn't expect you to be so enterprising. Qiang, if this continues, maybe you can build a clothing empire? "
When Chen Pingping heard Xu Boan's words, she quickly waved her hands and said modestly: "Don't be kidding me. It's just two small shops. The business is indeed pretty good, but it's not as outrageous as you said. It’s not like you don’t know that I am just a humble person with few resources, no background, and not much money. How can I have anything to do with the clothing empire? ”
When the two of them chatted here, Xu Boan had a sudden idea. Anyway, he was going to choose to withdraw from Dongjiang Second Construction. Without the constraints of the unit contract, he could actually start trying to start his own business.
Right now, Chen Pingping’s business is an investment opportunity for her. I can invest in her. Anyway, what I don’t lack now is money. Even if it fails, I won’t suffer much loss. There is no harm in betting accurately.
You can't put your eggs in one basket!
However, Xu Boan is by no means the kind of person who is stupid and has too much money to randomly find people to invest. The reason why he plans to invest in a clothing store and let Chen Pingping manage it is also for a certain reason.
The first is because, although I know that Chen Pingping’s clothing store is not big, she runs it well and retains many new and old customers, which shows that she still has a certain business acumen and now she is opening a second one. Now that she has a business, it proves that the turnover is also very good, otherwise she would not expand the store due to her personality.
You must know that the competitiveness of the clothing industry is extremely strong, not to mention that her store does not have its own fixed marketing and publicity model like other big-name chain stores. The operation of this kind of small store depends entirely on individual skills. Xu Boan could see that she was a person with certain potential and a malleable talent.
The second reason is that Xu Boan also has a little selfishness in it, because he knows Chen Pingping better. She is just an ordinary grassroots. She has no connections in the family and relies on her own efforts, one step at a time. Footprints and little by little accumulation have led to the small results we have today.
It will be more worry-free to invest in this kind of people, and it will be easier to control if you become bigger and stronger in the future and have ambitions.
Xu Boan still knows this truth: "You must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have the intention to guard against others."
Another point is that after getting along with Xu Boan for so long, Chen Pingping has not done anything that crosses the line, and she feels that her character is acceptable. The more interests are bound up with Chen Pingping, the more solid the relationship between the two will be in the future.
After considering it comprehensively, Xu Boan, who had this idea, said to Chen Pingping: "How big is your gap now?"
After hearing this, Chen Pingping blushed slightly, thinking that Xu Boan was going to do something else. I was still thinking about the matter, and I didn’t know how to answer it for a while, so I heard Xu Boan continue to say: "How about you open a clothing store and I will pay for it?"
When Chen Pingping heard this, a trace of panic flashed across her face. What kind of talk was this!
I open the store and you pay for it, isn’t this a maintenance relationship with Chiguoguo!
However, it seems that I have already been mentally prepared for this. In my eyes, Xu Boan is quite good in all aspects, but there seems to be only a layer of window paper between the two of them.
After all, I am already married for the second time. In the current life circle, it is basically impossible to find a supporter who is more reliable and better than Xu Bo'an.
But I agreed to it out of nowhere. Isn’t it too abrupt? Do you want to be more reserved?
Chen Pingping was having a fierce struggle in her heart when she heard Xu Bo'an continue: "I think about it this way. Bank loans require interest after all. If you agree, I can lend you the money, or... How about I invest in you? ?”
When Chen Pingping heard this, she suddenly felt embarrassed.
After struggling for a long time, my inner drama is too complicated! They don’t mean anything to you at all!
Seeing that Chen Pingping was still silent, Xu Boan simply showed his cards and said directly: "If you agree, you don't have to go to the bank today. I will transfer the money directly to your account, and you will discuss all the subsequent matters. , including the management of the store,
As for the operation, you are responsible for it, and if you do well, you can open a fourth or fifth store... You can continue to expand, and all the stores will be opened in the future. I will also be responsible for all the investments, what do you think?”
Chen Pingping originally thought of paying the rent on an annual basis, but after doing the calculations based on her own turnover, water and electricity bills, rent, etc., she decided that it would be more cost-effective to buy it herself.
Wanda Plaza in Dongjiang City is not a property solely owned by Wangda Group, a well-known wealthy businessman in the country, but a shopping mall invested by a local urban investment company as the major shareholder. The stores inside are available for rent and sale. Chen Pingping’s She bought the first store in full.
However, the prices of shops in Wanda Plaza have increased very rapidly in the past few years, and it is difficult for Chen Pingping to buy a shop in full with the current funds.
She was thinking about the money she had saved in the past few years, plus the money she earned from Xu Boan, so she would pay the down payment first. As for the later decoration and payment, she could wait for Xu Boan. After a month or two, I will pay myself a large amount of employment fees, and then just pay them in stages.
I originally planned to come over early today to tidy up Xu Boan's residence carefully, and then go to Wanda Mall to pay the deposit.
Now hearing what Xu Bo'an said, Chen Pingping's heart couldn't help but beat wildly, and the expression on her face was extremely excited. Almost in an instant, Xu Bo'an felt a scent of fragrance coming.
Then, like a little bird, Chen Pingping pecked him on the face!
“Great, Bo’an, I am willing to accept your investment!”
While talking, Chen Pingping was still holding Xu Bo’an’s arm tightly, but in an instant, she felt With a push, Xu Bo'an actually pushed himself away.
Chen Pingping was dumbfounded for a moment.
I don’t know what Xu Boan means!
Chen Pingping’s family was not well off since she was a child. She would often wear clothes that her relatives, neighbors, and older sisters had replaced. Some of them even had patches on them. She was often criticized by children when she went to school. Ridicule, for a little girl who loves beauty very much, left a big shadow in her heart and made her extremely unconfident.
Since her family's conditions were average, Chen Pingping decided to study hard and work hard. When she grew up, she would buy herself new clothes and never be laughed at. You can go to a better school and become a formally established people's teacher after graduation.
However, due to the lingering psychological shadow and my dream of clothing, I gave up my iron job. Despite the strong obstruction of my family, I still resolutely chose clothing design, even though my family almost broke up.
When she was in college, her family's financial situation was not very good, and the money her parents gave her could not afford her high tuition. In addition to learning professional knowledge, she had to work-study, and she had to endure the contempt from her classmates. During that time, she was The pain of a lifetime is also the motivation to work hard.
Unexpectedly, after graduation, when she was about to find a job, she realized that the fashion design major was extremely difficult to find a job. She had no choice but to open a small shop by herself. After the business improved a bit, she switched to Wanda Plaza. A place with a lot of customer traffic,
Now it is about to develop a second store. For a helpless grassroots, it is already very good, but in the eyes of people with a little wealth, it is just a " She is very distressed about buying clothes. After so many years of hard work, she thinks that all her hardships have finally come to an end.
But now she has a new title in the eyes of her relatives and classmates, "a broken clothes shopper", which has no dignity or status. Even though she is greeted with a smile every day in the store, when she A person also often returns to his room feeling depressed.
There is no way that people are born different. Some people are born in Rome, and some people are born as cows and horses. What can I do if I feel uncomfortable? What can I do if I can’t think about it?
When the sun rises as usual the next day, keep going with a smile on your face!
She has long recognized the reality after so many years. Having been smoothed out by society, the dreams of my youth have long been buried deep in my heart. Now I try to stay away from people who despise me. I just want to keep working hard to run my own shop well and live an ordinary day. .
I don’t think so, today Xu Boan is actually willing to invest in himself. How can Chen Pingping, who has been dusty in her heart for a long time, not be excited?
If I open a store to sell clothes, you can say that I am a "broken clothes buyer"!
How about five stores or ten stores?
In the eyes of most people, this is definitely a successful chain store owner.
The more Chen Pingping thought about it, the more excited she became. The Xu Boan in front of her suddenly became even more glittering and radiant!
Is your career going to make a qualitative leap from today on? Is it going to turn around soon?
Imagine the small flame that we finally extinguished. Then you reluctantly give up your love and bury it carefully in the deepest part of your heart. Suddenly someone tells you that he can help you realize your dream, and your hope is rekindled. Can you not be excited? Not crazy about it?
So it is understandable that Chen Pingping had some extreme reactions.
The moment Xu Bo'an pushed his hand away, Chen Pingping realized that she was really a little too excited, and quickly apologized: "Mr. Xu, I'm so sorry! Do you know? This has always been something I have dreamed of, and it is out of my reach. Dream.
I was so happy that..., please forgive me, I will never behave in such a ridiculous way again."
Xu Bo'an was serious. Said: "It's okay, it's just that I don't like to involve too many personal feelings when talking about business. I hope you can understand!"
Chen Pingping curled her lips in her heart, Lao Xu, Lao Xu, you are just like this No fun anymore. We are all adults. How can you, an engineer, invest in a clothing store? And even if you invest in clothing, you should have a lot of choices!
It is said that pies never fall from the sky, but now such a big pie has come without any warning? It can have no reason!
As a woman with no background, the only reason I can find for you to invest is myself!
I don’t intend to let you take responsibility, I just want to find a harbor and a backer for myself!
Do I, Chen Pingping, really have no charm at all in your eyes?
Thinking of this, Chen Pingping suddenly felt a little flustered. The time when a woman feels most insecure is when she doubts herself.
Chen Pingping was feeling suspicious when she heard Xu Boan continue: "In addition, I was holding chopsticks in my hand just now. Your excited movements almost made me knock the bowl off. I The resistance is just a subconscious behavior.”
After saying that, Xu Bo'an looked at Chen Pingping playfully, took out a piece of paper and slowly wiped his mouth.
When Chen Pingping heard Xu Boan's words, she became happy again.
Let me tell you, I, Chen Pingping, was also the school beauty of Banhuayuan back then. Although I no longer have the sweetness I had in my youthful years, I still have a lot more mature charm.
The number of people turning heads on the street is the best explanation!
Listening to Xu Bo'an's explanation, Chen Pingping did not hesitate anymore and pounced on Xu Bo'an in an instant!
There were no words for a while, only the spring breeze remained!
……
When I came out of the house, it was already an hour later.
Chen Pingping wore pajamas like a qualified wife, tied Xu Boan's tie, and like a servant, squatted down to help Xu Boan open his shoes with a shoehorn and put them on, and then tenderly Looking at Xu Bo'an affectionately, he warned: "Drive slower! If you want to eat anything at noon, just send me a message at any time."
Xu Bo'an smiled and said: "I won't be back for lunch. Come on, take some more rest!”
Xu Boan is going to see Su Tai, and they must have lunch together.
Chen Pingping nodded slightly, extended her hand to Xu Boan and waved it a few times, and said with a smile: "Well, in this way, if my employer is not at home today, I can fish happily again."< br>
Xu Boan was just about to make a joke when he heard a joyful greeting from behind him.
"Mr. Xu, you are back from abroad!" (End of this chapter)
