Driving Bei Yunxue's Audi TT, Wang Feng finally found the location of the new store under her guidance.
Covering six facades, the new store was at least three times larger than the present Bei Enterprise Jewelry Shop with convenient transportation and superior location, which attracted a huge amount of customers every day. The area was as big as a mini-market.
Obviously, Yao Cheng spent a lot of time looking for this place, but the rent of this store was tens of millions a year, which was so high that many people dared not imagine.
The renovation of the store was drawing to an end, and the workers were moving construction tools out of it.
Walking into the store, even though having already pictured it in his head, he was severely shocked. The store was so luxuriously furnished that it was like an imperial palace. It was glorious everywhere.
Crystal lamps were hanging everywhere. The floor was made of anti-slippery tempered glass, and under the glass was a layer of gold. The walls were decorated with the real jadeite, reflecting the dazzling light, which was dramatically luxurious.
The golden light illuminated the whole place as if they had stepped into a golden ocean. How much did the decoration cost?
At this moment, one word flashed in Wang Feng's mind, and that word was fancy! Even the decoration of a five-star hotel couldn't compare with it.
Although it was wasteful to decorate the floor with gold, didn't it also show how wealthy the Bei Enterprise Jewelry Shop was?
If one wanted to buy jewelry, he got two choices. One was a luxuriously furnished jewelry shop like a palace, while the other was a common jewelry shop. Needless to say, he would choose the former.
"Sister Xue, is there real gold under our feet?" Wang Feng asked.
"Of course." Bei Yunxue nodded and said, "Now that we have decided to make this shop new headquarter of the Bei Enterprise Jewelry Shop, we can't be stingy. Are you satisfied with it?"
Bei Yunxue explained with joy. She was like presenting a treasure to Wang Feng.
"Yes, that was very gratifying." Wang Feng clapped his hands and then said, "How much did you cost in decoration?"
"About 20 million." Bei Yunxue said musingly, which seemed that she didn't care about money at all.
"So cool!" Hearing Bei Yunxue's words, Wang Feng could not help giving her a thumbs-up. Bei Yunxue spent so much money on merely furnishing a jewelry shop. She was really generous.
"By the way, did Brother Yao visit here?"
"No, but I informed him. He should be coming soon." Bei Yunxue said.
Just as she said, they heard grinding brakes out of the doorway. It was Yao Cheng's fancy sports car. As the old saying went, speak of the devil, and here he appeared.
"I didn't expect you were earlier than me." Yao Cheng opened the door and got out of his car.
He chose the store's location, but it was his first time to visit here since he found this location and signed the contract.
He was also shocked to see the store furnished like a palace, and said with astonishment, "I'm not in a palace, am I?"
"Oh, I was shocked too, let alone you." Seeing Yao Cheng's face, Wang Feng said with a bitter smile.
"Well, what are you doing? Come on, let's have a look first." Seeing that both of them were shocked by her store, Bei Yunxue said delightedly.
Indeed, the store had been renovated, but they still got some detailed problems to deal with. First of all, the recruitment problem. As for such a large shop, they needed at least dozens of staff and security personnel.
The ground was covered with gold, and Wang Feng could not be relieved if they didn't have conscientious security guards.
The cameras had been installed, and the biggest problem was solved. As long as the staff was in place, the store could open for business at any time.
They had invested more than 200 million, and now it was time to get profits.
"By the way, Sister Xue, why don't I see a decent signboard? Would the store open up without it?" At this time, Wang Feng asked unintentionally.
"I almost forgot if you didn't mention that." Hearing Wang Feng's words, Bei Yunxue, as if remembering something, hurried into the back office and took out some writing brushes and papers.
"I call you here today for two reasons. The first is checking here. The second is to ask you to write the sign." Bei Yunxue said while looking at Wang Feng and Yao Cheng.
Rich companies would invite some real calligraphers to write its signboard, which could create a buzz among customers.
But Wang Feng and Yao Cheng didn't learn calligraphy before. So, when they heard what Bei Yunxue said, they shook their heads unanimously.
"Sister Xue, although I was also a college student, I must refuse your request about writing for its signboard. My writing was very terrible." Wang Feng shook his head and refused.
"Yes, Xiaoxue, don't embarrass us. If you really want a signboard, you can just find a famous calligrapher. We really can't do this." Yao Cheng echoed, shaking his head.
"No, we have to write by ourselves. Since we jointly opened this jewelry store, we have to write it on our own. No matter how well the calligrapher writes, they're not us. So, write it as quick as possible."
Bei Yunxue's voice raised while saying this, and she threateningly looked at Wang Feng and Yao Cheng.
It felt like if you refused to write, you wouldn't leave here today.
"Alright, I'll write." Under Bei Yunxue's threat, Wang Feng compromised. Anyway, he knew that his calligraphy was poor, so he just wrote it like it was a mission.
He was afraid that they would laugh at him for he had only practiced handwriting for months previously.
"I'll try, too." Seeing that Wang Feng had compromised, Yao Cheng naturally had no reason to decline her anymore. Anyway, he didn't need to worry about the outcome at all.
Wang Feng dipped his brush in the ink. When he was about to write, Bei Yunxue suddenly added.
"Wait!"
"What?" Wang Feng looked at Bei Yunxue doubtfully and asked.
"The name is not Bei Enterprise, but Xue Feng." Bei Yunxue interrupted them.
"Why do you change it? Isn't Bei Enterprise good?" At this time, Yao Cheng asked.
"Of course I should it. It's my personal property, not my family's. So if I really want to start a business, I can't name it as Bei Enterprise, so I replace it with Xue Feng." Bei Yunxue said, then she blushed and lowered her head.
Wang Feng naturally understood what Xue Feng meant. "Feng" was from his own name, while "Xue" was from Bei Yunxue's name. Putting the two words together, then Xue Feng was created.
At this time, Yao Cheng understood its meaning and quickly coughed to cover his embarrassment.
"Xiaoxue, I have a share in this jewelry store, so why don't you add my name?" Yao Cheng said while laughing wryly.
"If you could invest 100 million yuan, I will add your name." Bei Yunxue said and her face turned red.
"Never mind." Hearing that it would cost 100 million yuan, Yao Cheng immediately stopped talking about it. He could not invest 100 million yuan even if he gave up the last shot in the locker.
He had invested 30 million yuan, which was most of his savings. He was really unable to take 100 million yuan out.
However, he could provide follow-up additional investment.
"I don't have one hundred million yuan, but I'm willing to invest another twenty million dollars, fifty million dollars in total, as start-up funds." Yao Cheng said with a grave expression.
After all, 100 million yuan was not a small amount and anyone would be painful to take it out. This was the largest amount of money that Yao Cheng could provide after consideration.
He had no more money.
He firmly remembered his father's words in his mind. As long as he played up to Wang Feng, he would be able to get a better life, so he would provide additional investment now.
"Another 20 million?" Wang Feng was surprised to hear what Yao Cheng said.
"Yes, the store is so big that you need more start-up funds. It's hard to guarantee that you won't meet an accident." Yao Cheng nodded and looked serious.
"Okay, I'll let someone draft a new contract and redistribute shares." Due to Yao Cheng's firm attitude, Wang Feng did not say anything further.
After all, maybe they would still need more money to run such a big store in the future. They should take precautions for unexpected needs.
"It's not necessary. Since I'm willing to invest, I believe in you. You don't need to make another contract. I know you won't cheat me." Yao Cheng shook his head and rejected Wang Feng.
"All right. Then we can draw dividends according to the proportion of investment." Wang Feng said while gazing at Yao Cheng in surprise.
He had added twenty million yuan without a contract. If they cheated him, he had no way to get the money back.
Wang Feng was grateful for his trust. Of course, Wang Feng certainly would not cheat him for he had already taken Yao Cheng as his real friend because Yao Cheng had helped him a lot before.
For the enemy, Wang Feng could deceive them, or even blackmail them, but for friends, Wang Feng would double his kindness, because, in this society, it was a very lucky thing to make true friends.
Man's mind was unpredictable. Friends might be nice to on the surface but act the contrary. How could Wang Feng cheat Yao Cheng who trusted him so much?
"No, no." Hearing their conversation, Zisha suddenly said in a loud voice.
"What's wrong?" Wang Feng glanced at Zisha doubtfully and asked.
"All of you have invested, so I'm going to invest, and I want dividends too." She looked like a young girl who worshipped the golden calf.
"Don't interrupt adults' conversation. It's none of your business." Wang Feng said and glared at Zisha, which made her mad.
Since the store had not opened yet, if she could take a small share at this time, then Wang Feng would have no excuse to expel her.
Because then she had enough reasons to stay here.
"Sister Xue, I want to invest too. Please help me to persuade him." Seeing Wang Feng disapproved, Zisha immediately turned to Bei Yunxue for help, shaking Bei Yunxue's shoulders and said coquettishly.
"Well..." Bei Yunxue was somewhat embarrassed at the moment. In principle, if a company or enterprise began to run for business, investors would constantly wait and see to make sure that they could really earn money.
However, Zisha just threw money without consideration. What would she do if she lost money? She was rich enough to do anything she wanted.
"Zisha, I won't prevent you to invest, but now I'm not sure if the jewelry store will really make money, so you'd better wait until the store opens." Bei Yunxue suggested kindly for she worried that Zisha would lose money.
