The super rich starts with the self-discipline challenge

Chapter 153 Is this called entrepreneurship?

"How did you come?"

Zhong Yun was surprised to see that it was Meng Jiaen who came.

"I'll feed it."

Meng Jiaen took out a bag and showed it to the audience, saying, "Didn't you say last time that the roast goose here is delicious? I packed it up specially for you."

Zhong Yun took a look at the words on the bag and found that it was true. He had mentioned it once last time, but he didn't expect that she still remembered it.

"You're suddenly so nice to me, I'm a little scared. You should tell me what's going on first, and then I'll decide whether to eat it or not."

Meng Jiaen took out the lunch boxes from the bag, one box of roast goose, one box of barbecued pork, a vegetable, and two boxes of rice.

She rolled her eyes at him and said, "When have I ever been mean to you? It seems as if I have ulterior motives. Eat it if you want, or not."

"That's right."

Seeing that she had returned to normal, Zhong Yun was relieved and quickly unpacked the chopsticks, saying, "You bought this specially for me, of course I have to eat it, and I have to eat it all."

Meng Jiaen said unhappily, "Are you a bitch? You think it's normal only if I insult you, right?"

"What's the point of being a bro if you don't act like a bitch once in a while? Mm, it's delicious. Try this piece with some sour plum sauce."

Zhong Yun picked up a piece of the best part, dipped it in some sour plum sauce, and put it in her bowl, asking, "Why did you come to bring me food?"

"Xia Siyin just took the chairman's seat today. She must have a lot of things to do. She won't be leaving get off work so soon."

"You still care about me."

"It's good to know."

Meng Jiaen picked up a piece of barbecued pork and put it in his bowl.

Zhong Yun remembered that her period had just come, and asked with concern, "By the way, how do you feel now? Are you feeling better?"

"I feel much better after drinking the brown sugar water." Meng Jiaen asked him, "Will you continue to be her driver in the future? Have you considered doing something else, such as being a director? As long as you ask, Xia should agree."

"Do you think it's easy to be a director?"

Zhong Yun felt that she was too arrogant, calling him director. Su Wan only dared to say that she would first give him a deputy director. "I think it's good now. The salary is easy and the income is high."

Meng Jiaen frowned and said, "You can't always be a driver, right?"

In the past, she thought that as long as Zhong Yun was happy, it was fine. But now it was different. She had more things to consider. Her grandfather would not care too much about who she dated.

But it’s different if she gets married. Her grandfather will definitely not agree to her marrying a driver.

Her grandfather despised the kind of men who had no ambition, no drive to make progress, and who just lived a life of idleness and waiting to die.

Zhong Yun said, "No, I might start my own business."

Meng Jiaen couldn't help but sigh in her heart. This was even more trouble. Her grandfather also hated people who were ambitious but incompetent and always wanted to start a business.

What is the current situation? Many second-generation people want to prove themselves and start their own businesses, but end up losing a lot of money.

There’s no way I’ll be able to pass that level with grandpa.

How sad.

Meng Jiaen wanted to persuade him to give up this idea and said, "Do you have money? Why don't you start a business? Have you forgotten that your family still owes money?"

Zhong Yun said, "I want to raise investment. I don't need my own money. If I don't have enough money, can't I just ask you?"

"So you think I'm a sucker." Meng Jiaen rolled her eyes at him, paused, and then said, "I only have two million left in my card."

"It's okay, two million is enough."

"I can give you all the two million, but you have to promise me one thing."

"You said."

"If you lose money, just go to work honestly and stop being Xia Siyin's driver."

Zhong Yun said confidently, "Don't worry, I won't lose money. I'll help you make money. From now on, you don't have to worry about your aunt blocking your finances."

Meng Jiaen couldn't help but reach out and touch his forehead. He didn't have a fever, and it didn't seem like he was drunk.

He is not usually the kind of person who likes to brag.

Why are you bragging today?
Starting a business is not that easy.

Besides, what can you do with two million?
……

In the next few days, Xia Siyin became very busy, running out every day to visit various partners. Zhong Yun also followed her everywhere, acting as her bodyguard and assistant every time, and accompanying her to meet various business tycoons.

They are either the CEO of a company or the boss behind a group. They are basically middle-aged people, or some are old men over 60 years old.

The youngest among them is Meng Jiaen’s aunt Ye Qing.

When Ye Qing saw him, she didn't show any strangeness, as if she didn't know him.

I have to say that these workplace elites have strong psychological qualities.

After going out and looking around, Zhong Yun discovered that Xia Siyin was still quite prestigious. These people were very polite to her. It was not known whether it was because of her current position or they were afraid of the Xia family behind her.

After a few days, Xia Siyin finally stopped going out so frequently.

Zhong Yun felt that she had more free time than before and worked less overtime.

On the contrary, Su Wan became even busier. She was in charge of the daily operation of the company and worked overtime until very late every day.

At the beginning, there were so many things to deal with. On the one hand, I had to deal with the mess left by Jiang An, and on the other hand, I had to fight with Jiang Qizhe and Luo Siqi. I was so busy that I was almost fuming.

Although Jiang Qizhe ultimately lost and failed to become CEO, it was not so easy for Xia Siyin to kick him out of the company.

His existence will take up a large part of Su Wan's energy.

However, Zhong Yun could see that Su Wan, who had said that day that she wanted to retire early and go home to be with her daughter, was now full of energy and enjoyed it, and her whole body radiated an unprecedented radiance.

For her, being able to sit in this position finally allows her to show her talents and realize her ambitions. Naturally, she devotes herself to her work.

It must be said that Xia Siyin's suggestion to let Su Wan be the CEO was really the right choice. As the saying goes, a new emperor appoints new ministers, and when the company changes its helmsman, there will naturally be a huge shock, and there will be some adjustments in all aspects of personnel.

As an outsider, Zhong Yun actually doesn't care much about these things.

He only knew that Wang Shanshan was transferred to the business department as director. The personnel department was replaced, and the finance department was taken over by Xia Siyin's deputy.

However, the responsibilities and powers of Jiang Qizhe and Luo Siqi have not changed much.

Obviously, Xia Siyin wanted to play it safe so as not to cause a strong backlash from Jiang and Luo and plunge the company into chaos.

As long as you can smoothly pass this transition period and secure your position, it will not be difficult to deal with these two people.

……

On this day, Zhong Yun took some time and handed Su Wan a very simple business plan.

Su Wan flipped through it casually and glanced at him, "Five hundred thousand, is that enough?"

"enough."

"Okay. I've invested in this project. Here's my lawyer's business card. I'll have him contact you."

"Thank you, Mr. Su."

Zhong Yun left after finishing his business. There was nothing he could do. President Su was too busy. Secretary Lin said that her day was packed with things and she had to squeeze her meal time into ten minutes.

When he came in, there were several people waiting outside, so he left quickly after finishing his business.

In the afternoon, lawyer Su Wan called. Zhong Yun met with her in the coffee shop downstairs and chatted with her. They quickly finalized an investment contract.

Su Wan invested 500,000 yuan to open an unmanned supermarket for Zhong Yun, and the shares were divided in a 30:70 ratio.

The supermarket is managed by Zhong Yunlai.

As soon as the contract was signed, the money was transferred to Zhong Yun’s card that evening.

As soon as the money arrived, he started to get busy.

……

More than a week later.

“Is this what you call starting a business?”

Meng Jiaen stood on a busy street, looking at a supermarket that was being renovated, and was speechless.

Is opening a supermarket considered starting a business?

Isn't this too childish?
Zhong Yun said, "This is an unmanned supermarket. There is no need for cashiers. It is open 24 hours a day. We only need to hire one or two stockers to receive and deliver goods at fixed times every day. This greatly reduces labor costs."

"Are you serious?"

Meng Jiaen looked at him talking and wanted to ask him something, but she held back in order not to hurt his self-esteem.

Obviously, these guys have no business acumen. They opened supermarkets before, and now they open supermarkets again. Although they have become unmanned supermarkets, they are still supermarkets. This is indeed path dependence.

It's really worrying.

She really wanted to suggest that he go to work for a few days to gain some experience.

Forget it, let him do it. Only by experiencing failure can he grow. Anyway, the investment in this supermarket won't be too high, and I can cover the cost for him.

When he fails, persuade him to go to work.

Meng Jiaen asked, "How much money did you invest in total?"

Zhong Yun said, "About 300,000."

The remaining hundreds of thousands will be used as operating funds.

Three hundred thousand dollars is a good deal if it can buy a lesson.

Meng Jiaen thought to herself, she asked, "How long do you expect it will take to get your money back?"

"A year or two."

If everything goes well, Su Wan's investment will be paid back in one or two years. As for him, he didn't invest a penny and made pure profit.

Meng Jiaen suddenly doubted whether he had ever opened a store. "It takes two years to recover the investment, and the annual net profit is nearly 200,000. The monthly rent here is at least 10,000 or 20,000, plus the staff salary, water and electricity expenses, it is about 30,000. The profit of a supermarket is only about 20% at most. In other words, the daily turnover must be more than 200,000, and the daily sales must be more than 8,000."

She pointed to the supermarket, which was about 50 square meters, and said, "Do you think it's possible?"

Zhong Yun looked at her in surprise, "I didn't expect you to know a lot about opening a store."

"This is common sense, okay!"

"Are you hungry? There's a pretty good casserole porridge restaurant across the street."

"I think you'd better not hold out such high hopes. It's good enough to earn some pocket money. I want seafood porridge."

"Make some more rice noodles."

"Can you eat it?"

"If you can't eat it, pack it up and take it back. Xiaoyue will be back tonight."

"Xiaoyue, she is already in the third year of high school, right?"

"Yes, during the half-day break on Sunday afternoon, everyone looked a lot more haggard."

"She must have good grades, right? Which university does she want to apply to?"

"It should be Zhongda."

"She's really amazing then."
