My male god, your character has collapsed!

Chapter 322 Chapter Bringing Tao Tian Home

After midnight, the excitement faded. Although there were still many young people on the street, they looked exhausted.

Tao Tian drove Zhou Yuwen and Zhu Hong to find a place to eat.

Passing by several subway entrances, Zhou Yuwen noticed that many young people, both men and women, were squatting next to the subway entrances, talking and laughing, and no one knew what they were talking about.

It is obvious that these people came to the city to celebrate the New Year, and their place of residence is too far from the city. They certainly cannot go back after the subway stops operating, and can only wander around the streets like this. These young people are not short of money, but spending two or three hundred to take a taxi home is too luxurious for them, and today's hotel prices are also out of stock. Hotels that usually cost more than one hundred yuan cost more than five hundred yuan today, and you may not be able to book a hotel even if you spend more than five hundred yuan.

Every New Year’s Eve is the same scene.

Tao Tian took Zhou Yuwen and the others to find a small ramen restaurant.

The shop was deserted at this time, but the light on the sign was still flashing.

Zhu Hong looked at the open ramen shop with great interest and said with a smile, "I didn't expect you could find such a unique shop so late at night. It seems that you two didn't come here in vain."

Zhou Yuwen said: "I don't know about that. She never brought me here."

Tao Tian's face turned slightly red. She couldn't help but tug on Zhou Yuwen's hand, and whispered like a girlfriend, "It's not that I don't want to bring you here, but you don't give me a chance."

"Oh, Mr. Zhou, did you hear that? Your girlfriend has some complaints." Zhu Hong said with a smile.

Zhou Yuwen didn't think there was anything wrong.

It snowed two days ago and there is a chill in the air.

Tao Tian was still wearing the green skirt, but she had a black down jacket over it.

Zhu Hong was still dressed the same.

Just like that, Tao Tian took Zhou Yuwen's hand, and then followed Zhu Hong into the ramen restaurant.

In fact, the ramen restaurant was about to close at this time.

But seeing that there were customers coming, the boss thought it was nothing to do and just ordered three bowls of ramen.

Zhu Hong drank a lot of wine today, so it would be very comfortable for her to eat something hot at this time.

But Zhou Yuwen was very curious. There were so many delicious foods just now, but how come Tao Tian was not full?

Tao Tian said that she had been standing all the time and had no time to eat.

"This ramen is delicious, you can try it."

Zhu Hong noticed that from the tone of Tao Tian's conversation with Zhou Yuwen, as well as the look in her eyes when she looked at Zhou Yuwen, it was certain that this girl liked Zhou Yuwen very much.

However, Zhou Yuwen does not seem to have deep feelings for this girl.

That's true, there are some very capable men that Zhu Hong has come into contact with.

One thing they have in common is that they don't put too much energy on women.

It’s just that those men were all in their forties or fifties.

But Zhou Yuwen in front of him was only eighteen years old.

The heating was on in the ramen restaurant, and Tao Tian took off her down jacket as soon as she entered the restaurant. However, despite this, her long hair still affected her eating of ramen.

Zhou Yuwen saw this and asked her if she didn't have a holster.

Tao Tian shook her head and said that she didn’t expect to come here to eat ramen, and naturally she didn’t bring a holster.

Zhou Yuwen thought about it, took out a pair of chopsticks, and reached out to gather Tao Tian's hair.

Tao Tian was very obedient to Zhou Yuwen. Although she didn't know what Zhou Yuwen was going to do, she obediently let Zhou Yuwen hold her hair.

From her perspective, she might not be able to see what Zhou Yuwen was doing.

But Zhu Hong could see it clearly.

I didn't realize that Zhou Yuwen, at such a young age, had such a skill. With his technique, a chopstick was turned into a wooden hairpin for gathering hair. In just a few seconds, he had tied up Tao Tian's long hair.

The two green leaves on Tao Tian's chest cover important parts. She is actually very suitable for a bun, which can better highlight her advantages and show the slenderness of her neck.

After it was ready, Tao Tian took out her mobile phone and took a picture with the front camera. She was very surprised when she saw her new look.

Zhu Hong smiled and asked, "I didn't expect Mr. Zhou to have such skills."

"I practiced it on her," Zhou Yuwen said.

After hearing this, Tao Tian felt a little sweet in her heart.

While Zhou Yuwen and Zhu Hong were talking, he actually got a little drunk and tilted his head.

He kissed Zhou Yuwen on the face.

"?" This really caught Zhou Yuwen off guard.

However, Tao Tian had a shy expression on her face and lowered her head to eat ramen.

When Zhu Hong saw this scene, she naturally sighed that it was great to be young.

Zhou Yuwen didn't pay much attention to it. The three of them just lowered their heads and ate ramen.

There were too many people at the annual meeting of Peter Gao's company just now, so some things were not convenient to say.

It's late at night and there are only three people in the ramen restaurant.

While eating ramen, Zhu Hong asked casually: Mr. Zhou, I heard that your takeout company has occupied 90% of the market in Xianlin. I wonder if you have any other plans.

"Other plans? What plans are you talking about, Sister Zhu?"

“About the future development of the food delivery company.”

Finally, we get to the point.

In fact, Tao Tian is very suitable to be the kind of canary who is kept by one's side and taken out for social events. First of all, she is really beautiful, and secondly, she knows how to read people's expressions.

Just now when she was eating ramen, she was chatting and laughing with Zhou Yuwen.

When Zhu Hong started talking about business, Tao Tian stopped making a sound and just lowered his head and ate noodles obediently.

Zhou Yuwen said: "I never thought about the development of the food delivery company. I told Sister Zhu that the essence of establishing the food delivery company was to help more poor students find more stable part-time jobs."

“The intention is good, but the food delivery industry is actually very big.”

Zhu Hong smiled and said that she and Zhou Yuwen said that my country is a country with a large population, and with the development of the Internet, other industries are in need of development. Yuwen, all your industries seem to be developing in a chaotic manner, but they are implicitly complementary to each other. I don't believe you are just playing around.

Zhou Yuwen told her that it was actually just for fun and she had to believe it.

"The takeaway industry has great prospects, but it is also a very complicated industry. I am just an ordinary college student. It is too complicated and I cannot handle it."

Zhou Yuwen didn't hide anything from her and said directly, it's okay for you to be a part-time delivery man, but it's definitely impossible for you to be a full-time delivery man.

Because the money earned by deliverymen is hard-earned, and when it is windy or rainy outside, the deliverymen have to run around everywhere. Not to mention the dangers they may encounter, the main thing is that this job is not secure.

"If I really want to do food delivery, I will definitely pay five insurances and one fund for each deliveryman, but this is a huge expense. I am just a college student with some ability. How can I do it?"

When Zhou Yuwen finished speaking, Zhu Hong was stunned for a moment.

He took another look at Zhou Yuwen.

But I saw Zhou Yuwen eating ramen over there.

Zhu Hong had never thought of what Zhou Yuwen said.

What are the social security issues for deliverymen?

At this time, whether it is Ele.me or Meituan, they have just started to develop food delivery. How can they possibly think of paying five insurances and one fund for every deliveryman? They only know how to grab territory and occupy space.

So Zhou Yuwen's seemingly casual remark suddenly made Zhu Hong see the problem a few years later.

Pay five insurances and one fund for deliverymen?
Zhou Yuwen doesn’t know how to do that.

Their company certainly won't either.

Because the burden is too heavy, if you really pay the five social insurances and one housing fund, you can't even afford to make money, let alone lose money.

"So if you ask me about my future plans, I can only say that I will take it one step at a time. If there is a suitable price, it doesn't matter if I sell this company."

Zhou Yuwen doesn't like to hide things, so he just says it directly.

Sell?
There was a hint of excitement in Zhu Hong's eyes, but she hid it well.

She asked calmly, "How much are you going to sell it for?"

The company's offer to Zhu Hong is two million, and Zhu Hong is willing to negotiate within the price. It would be best if she could acquire Zhou Yuwen's food delivery company at the lowest price.

After contacting Zhou Yuwen, Zhu Hong planned to make friends with Zhou Yuwen and gave Zhou Yuwen two million directly.

Zhou Yuwen slurped a mouthful of noodles first, without even raising his head, but stretched out three fingers.

"three million?"

Zhu Hong frowned. This was beyond her expectations.

Zhou Yuwen looked up: "It's not three hundred, it's three thousand."

"thirty million!?"

Zhu Hong was confused. No, she always thought that Zhou Yuwen should be very knowledgeable about the rules, but she didn't expect that Zhou Yuwen would actually play the trick of selling jade in southern Yunnan?

Zhu Hong couldn't help laughing: "Yuwen, are you kidding me?"

"I'm not kidding, Sister Zhu. Thirty million is already a concession of ten million from me to you."

"So you're planning on asking for 40 million?"

"Yeah, almost."

Tao Tian was eating noodles with her head down, but when she heard what the two were talking about, she became a little restless.

In fact, when Zhou Yuwen proposed 30 million.

Tao Tian couldn't help but look up at Zhou Yuwen.

She was still slurping noodles in her mouth, looking quite funny.

But there was nothing she could do, she really wanted to know if Zhou Yuwen was joking.

That’s 30 million?
He also gave away 10 million.

No matter how I think about it, I feel like this is a joke.

Zhu Hong couldn't help laughing. She analyzed the situation with Zhou Yuwen and said, "As far as I know, your takeout company has only been established for half a year, and it only occupies the market in Xianlin University Town."

Xianlin University Town can be considered a city of 100,000 people.

That means you sell it for 30 million in a market of 100,000 people? "Yuwen, are you kidding me?"

The ramen here is delicious, but the quantity is too small.

I just took a few puffs and finished it.

Zhou Yuwen wiped his mouth and said, "It is true that we only occupy the market in Xianlin now, but isn't it almost the New Year?"

"Your takeaway department has just been established. It will probably take until March for it to be truly operational. In these two months, I will take over the markets in Jiangning and Pukou, which is equivalent to half of the market in Jinling."

"That's not worth three thousand."

“It’s not worth it, but if I sell Xianlin takeaway to Ele.me, it will be worth it.”

Zhu Hong raised her eyebrows, she didn't expect Zhou Yuwen's sources of information to be so well-informed?
Of course it is well-informed. To be honest, Ele.me was founded before Meituan Waimai.

But Ele.me is centered in Shanghai and radiates to the south.

Meituan in Beijing discovered the market for food delivery later, so it hastily set up a food delivery department, and then began to expand in all directions.

Although the two food delivery companies were founded at the same time, they have already divided each other, and Jinling is the first stop for the two companies to meet.

After the winner was decided at this station, the next year and the year after, a bloody price war broke out, with all kinds of price wars emerging one after another. Zhou Yuwen remembers those two years very clearly. At that time, ordering takeout cost only one dollar, and taking a taxi only cost a few cents.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. After figuring out the customers' behavior habits, the starting price for taking a taxi skyrocketed, and the price of ordering takeout also increased day by day.

Zhou Yuwen knew that he could not beat these business tycoons.

Zhou Yuwen just wanted to settle down and take advantage of their fight to make the most of the rare goods and sell them to his food delivery company at a good price.

Bring up the fact that their two families are incompatible.

It's not a question of whether it's worth it or not.

But you have to buy it.

If you don't buy, your opponent will.

Zhu Hong was amazed at the business information Zhou Yuwen obtained, but she was only slightly surprised. However, she quickly reacted and said "oh".

“If you want to sell to Ele.me, it’s a good choice.”

"Well, yes, either sell it to Ele.me or sell it to your company."

Zhou Yuwen pointed it out directly.

Zhu Hong smiled and said, "Then I have to go back and discuss with the boss to see if they are willing to buy it."

Zhou Yuwen said yes.

Zhu Hong achieved her goal and tested Zhou Yuwen's bottom price.

But the reserve price was too high, and Zhu Hong had no say in the matter, and couldn't even negotiate.

If it's three million, there's room for negotiation.

thirty million.

Bye then.

Zhu Hong didn't even have the appetite to eat ramen afterwards.

Turned around and wanted to leave.

It turns out it’s hard to get a taxi at this time.

"Sister Zhu, let us take you there." Zhou Yuwen was considerate and said, even if the deal failed, the friendship still remains.

"Didn't Sister Zhu ask me to recommend talents for you?"

Seeing that Zhou Yuwen was still as calm as ever, Zhu Hong realized how cunning this young man was. He already knew her purpose, and the 30 million he mentioned was not a joke.

But he was too confident.

Tao Tian, ​​who was only responsible for driving, didn't understand the situation. The two of them were chatting quite well just now, but for some reason, the topic suddenly became cold.

Zhou Yuwen was sitting in the passenger seat.

But Zhu Hong was sitting in the back seat.

When they were about to arrive at the hotel, Zhu Hong said, in fact, it is not impossible for you to get 30 million.

But the prerequisite is that you can occupy 50% of the market in Jinling.

"Otherwise, neither we nor Ele.me will agree to your request,"

"The scale of these two companies is beyond your ability to handle by yourself. If you are unlucky, you may not get a penny. Have you ever thought about this?" Zhu Hong asked in the back seat.

Zhou Yuwen said: "I am young, I am not afraid, at worst I can make a comeback in ten years."

"Okay." Zhu Hong looked at Zhou Yuwen again, then smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll wait and see."

Just arrived at the hotel entrance.

Zhu Hong got off the car.

Zhu Hong stayed at the Metropark Hotel in Xuanwu District.

It is also a long-established five-star hotel.

After Zhu Hong left, Zhou Yuwen and Tao Tian were the only ones left in the car.

Tao Tian became nervous, and her voice trembled. She couldn't help but ask, "Where are we going next?"

Zhou Yuwen looked at the time.

It's already half past one in the morning.

Zhou Yuwen said, even if I send you back to the dormitory now, you probably won’t be able to get in.

After hearing this, Tao Tian laughed like a silver bell, knowing that there was no going back.

Zhou Yuwen said, let’s go to Zhonghai Garden.

"Qu Jing has gone home to be with her parents. There's no one in Zhonghai Garden. Let's spend the night there."

Zhou Yuwen originally wanted to arrange for Tao Tian to stay in a hotel, but a hotel requires two rooms.

It is New Year's Eve and the hotel is packed. It may not even be possible to book one room, let alone two rooms.

It is impossible for Zhou Yuwen to sleep with Tao Tian.

Even if Tao Tian has a big surprise.

But her big thunder can explode at any time and anywhere.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just the last time she beat Zheng Yanyan, and then later she led the girls from the Arts Department to stab me in the back, and finally she attempted suicide.

With things happening one after another, who would dare to get involved with him?

Anyway, Zhou Yuwen’s current mentality is that he can have a casual affair with Tao Tian, ​​but he has never thought about having a real relationship with Tao Tian.

From Zhou Yuwen's perspective alone, Tao Tian is still very well-behaved at the moment.

So I followed the navigation and arrived at Zhonghai Garden.

It was almost two o'clock, and Zhonghai Garden was completely silent, with most of the residents having gone to bed.

The car was parked in the underground garage.

Zhou Yuwen also drank some wine today. Although he was not drunk, Tao Tian did a great job.

After coming down, she supported Zhou Yuwen and said in a tender voice, "Slow down."

"Um"

Zhou Yuwen is very determined, but too determined. Tao Tian is wearing a green leaf dress and holding Da Lei, swaying back and forth in front of Zhou Yuwen's eyes. Zhou Yuwen still feels dry in the mouth.

Zhou Yuwen thought to himself, this woman is too troublesome, he must be able to control himself.

At least you can't take the initiative.

Compared with Lanting, Zhonghai Garden is a mid-range community, mainly consisting of 27-story high-rise buildings, so the residents are very mixed and the property environment is not as good as Lanting.

But it is also considered a mid-range neighborhood.

For these college students who have not yet graduated, living here is still very stressful.

In the elevator, Tao Tian told Zhou Yuwen that this was her second time in Zhonghai Garden.

Zhou Yuwen asked: "When was the last time you came?"

"A month ago, Minmin and I came here to rent a house, but the price of the community here was too expensive, so we didn't rent one." Tao Tian told Zhou Yuwen honestly.

Zhou Yuwen asked her how much it cost to rent a house here.

"Two rooms cost 1800 yuan."

“It’s not too expensive.”

Zhou Yuwen said.

"I heard that Jingjing's house is yours, with three bedrooms and a living room?" Tao Tian asked cautiously.

Zhou Yuwen nodded and said, "When I received my manuscript fee, I bought two houses. I thought they would be empty anyway, so I gave them to Qu Jing to live in."

"very nice."

Tao Tian's eyes were a little dim.

She looked at Zhou Yuwen dimly and said, "If I hadn't been so willful, I might have been the one living here."

She looked at Zhou Yuwen with a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to speak.

Zhou Yuwen turned his eyes away and said, "You won't. Because you are a person with dignity. You are like a bird. No one can contain you."

Tao Tian felt a little disappointed after hearing this.

She wanted to say that for Zhou Yuwen, she was willing to fly into the cage.

At this time, the elevator just arrived at the station.

Zhou Yuwen said, "We're here."
