Since they are reborn, they must be supported by the school beauties.

Chapter 5 Make a fortune silently

When Ma Tao heard Chen Cheng say that the meal was free, contempt was written all over his face.

He looked at Chen Cheng and asked, "Chen Cheng, who are you trying to fool? If the boss really gives you a free meal, I'll take your mother's last name."

Chen Cheng smiled and said, "Not only do you want to eat and drink for free, but you even want to use my last name. Do you think you deserve it?"

Lu Youyou just happened to walk in at this time, and heard Ma Tao chattering outside the door, so she couldn't hide the disgust on her face at all.

Seeing Lu Youyou coming, Ma Tao quickly changed his expression and said with a smile on his face, "Youyou, Chen Cheng doesn't have money, why don't we just split the bill? Why are you paying for him? How much is it per person? I'll give it to you now!"

Lu Youyou didn't look at him and said coldly, "I didn't pay."

Song Xiaohan came over and asked in surprise, "Yoyo, you really didn't leave? Chen Cheng said the boss waived the bill, is that true?"

Lu Youyou nodded: "That should be the case. I saw the boss tear up the bill."

"Ouch!"

Everyone was surprised.

Based on everyone's understanding of Lu Youyou, it is impossible for Lu Youyou to lie.

Although this restaurant is not luxurious, it is quite famous locally.

It is said that the boss here can earn hundreds of thousands a year.

His annual income is much more than that of most of the students here.

So, no one could understand why such a big boss would give Chen Cheng a free meal.

Chen Cheng was no longer interested in tangling with these people, so he asked his best friend Wu Haoyang, "Are you full?"

Wu Haoyang nodded: "I'm full already."

Chen Cheng said: "Let's go now that we're full."

"it is good!"

Wu Haoyang immediately stood up and prepared to leave with Chen Cheng.

Ma Tao was unwilling to let him go and immediately said, "Chen Cheng, explain yourself clearly before you leave."

Chen Cheng asked back: "What do you want to understand?"

Ma Tao pressed on: "Who knows if the boss actually waived the bill? What if you leave and we get stopped for the bill again?"

Chen Cheng laughed and said, "Do you really want the last name Chen?"

At this moment, the boss suddenly walked in.

Just then he ran into Chen Cheng. He took out his cell phone and said with a smile, "Little brother, I forgot to leave you my contact information. Please leave me your number!"

Chen Cheng said: "Forget it, boss, I don't have a cell phone, but don't worry, I will come over during the National Day holiday."

The boss immediately took out a business card and handed it to him: "This is my business card, please keep it. When you have time, bring your friends over and I'll treat you. I can still afford this little money."

After saying that, he called the waiter loudly: "Xiao Zeng, just add any food and drinks to this table, and they will all be free of charge."

The waiter was confused, but nodded decisively: "Okay, boss."

The boss took out two hard Zhonghua cigarettes tucked under his armpit and stuffed them into Chen Cheng's pockets, saying, "Brother, I have to go back and talk to my family, so I can't entertain you here! Wait until you have a holiday. When you come back, I'll treat you to a meal and give you a big red envelope! Take these cigarettes, I'm leaving now!"

"Thanks, bro."

Chen Cheng didn't bother to be polite with the boss, because the information he revealed to the boss was worth many times more than two packs of Zhonghua cigarettes.

The boss smiled and waved to Chen Cheng, then turned around and walked out quickly.

The classmates around were still dumbfounded by the boss's performance just now.

Chen Cheng had previously said that the boss had waived the bill for this meal, but many classmates didn't believe it.

But the boss came over personally to greet Chen Cheng, and his attitude was so polite. He also said that he could add more food, drinks and other drinks at will, so naturally no one dared to question it.

What’s even more shocking is that the boss actually gave Chen Cheng two packs of Zhonghua cigarettes!

These days, Zhonghua cigarettes are the hard currency in high-end social circles, and two pieces cost 900 yuan.

And the boss finally said that he would give Chen Cheng a big red envelope when he comes next time!
Everyone has one question in mind: Why?!

Why does Chen Cheng, who has always been honest, dull and low-key, have such a big face?

Although everyone didn't know the reason, many people at the scene immediately looked at Chen Cheng with admiration.

In their opinion, since Chen Cheng could make the owner of such a restaurant so enthusiastic, there must be some amazing thing about him that no one knows about.

Several classmates who had just been mocking Chen Cheng were afraid of offending him and hurried over to apologize.

Meng Xuezhi was at the front and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Chen Cheng. It was Ma Tao who was deliberately provoking us just now. Don't take it to heart."

Even Ma Tao's best friend Zhang Pengyu stepped forward nervously: "Chen Cheng, I just said something too harsh. I apologize! Please don't be so angry with me."

Ma Tao was embarrassed, and he didn't know Chen Cheng's true feelings, so he didn't dare to say anything more at this time.

Several classmates who usually didn't have much contact with Chen Cheng also gathered around and praised Chen Cheng.

Many people even suggested exchanging QQ with Chen Cheng so that they could keep in touch when they went to school in Jiangcheng.

Chen Cheng didn't want to have too much contact with these so-called classmates, and he still had to slowly digest the matter of rebirth, so he said to everyone: "I haven't been online much in my senior year of high school, and I can't remember my QQ number. I'll register a new one and then exchange it with everyone."

Seeing Chen Cheng's sincere attitude, several classmates stopped pestering him.

Chen Cheng had stayed long enough, so he waved his hand to say hello to everyone and called Wu Haoyang to leave the box together.

Seeing Chen Cheng leave, Ma Tao, who had lost face but didn't dare to provoke Chen Cheng in person, deliberately tried to make amends in front of Lu Youyou: "Chen Cheng is so dishonest! He must have used some cover to deceive the boss. I think he's even more deceptive than Zhao Benshan!"

After saying that, he looked at Lu Youyou and reminded her, "Youyou, when you get to Jiangcheng next time, you must stay away from people like this!"

"Chen Tao, don't worry about my business." Lu Youyou frowned slightly, with a somewhat dissatisfied tone.

Ma Tao was stunned for a moment, thinking Lu Youyou had called him by the wrong name. Then he realized it instantly, his face filled with embarrassment. He quickly smiled and changed the subject, saying, "By the way, Youyou, how are you planning on reporting? If you're taking the bus, let's go together! There are new air-conditioned buses that are fast and comfortable!"

Lu Youyou didn't look at him and said lightly: "My parents drove me there." Ma Tao's expression froze. He had known that Lu Youyou's family was rich, but with his mentality, he had never thought that they could drive a private car when traveling far away.

After Lu Youyou finished speaking, without waiting for him to speak, she stood up and said to everyone, "I'm leaving too."
-
"Chen Cheng, do you know the owner of this restaurant?"

Wu Haoyang was curious and kept asking questions after leaving the restaurant.

"I guess we know each other." Chen Cheng said casually.

Wu Haoyang couldn't help but ask, "Then why did he give you two packs of Zhonghua cigarettes? They're very expensive, right?"

Chen Cheng said, "This is very complicated. I'll explain it to you when I have the chance."

In fact, Chen Cheng also met the owner of this restaurant today in his previous life.

That time, he was ridiculed by Ma Tao and his men here, and he lost his composure and face. He also refused Lu Youyou's offer of help.

The waiter called the boss in. When he saw that Chen Cheng couldn't come up with the money, he asked for Chen Cheng's father's phone number and called him to come and pay the bill.

Mr. Chen had no idea that his son had been humiliated here, and he didn't take it to heart after paying the bill.

When Chen Cheng returned home for National Day during his freshman year, his family wanted to find a restaurant to welcome him, so his father booked this place.

When I came again that time, the boss was always frowning and sighing.

After asking, Chen's father found out that he had just missed a windfall.

The landlord of his restaurant is old and his children all live in other places. He has always wanted to sell the shop to him and move away to live with his children.

But he hesitated for a long time and finally didn't answer.

The reason why he didn't accept the offer was that Fancheng had just started renovating its old city area, and news of the old city's demolition was spreading everywhere. The landlord also told him that the place would be demolished sooner or later, so the price he asked for was a bit higher.

He felt at the time that the news was all hearsay and no one knew when it would be demolished.

If the cycle is too long, more than one million yuan of your funds will be lost.

So he struggled for a long time, and finally chose to give up.

As a result, in mid-September, the landlord sold the shop and the lease to an old friend.

No one expected that at the end of September, Fancheng would release the latest renovation plan for the old city, and this store was within the demolition range.

According to the boss himself, the demolition compensation together with rental compensation was initially estimated to be more than two million.

The old landlord sold this shop for more than one million yuan at that time.

All in all, the profit was nearly one million.

He missed this windfall because of a moment's thought.

In fact, when Chen Cheng thought about this matter just now, he had also thought about finding a way to take over this shop.

However, although the renovation plan can be produced by the end of September, there are still a lot of procedures to go through, such as measuring the house, determining the size, signing, and collecting the payment. Even if it is fast, the money will not be received until the end of the year.

Chen Cheng knew his family's situation; they were just ordinary working class people.

My parents’ combined monthly salary is just over 2,000 yuan, and our family savings are at most a few tens of thousands of yuan.

This income level is enough for a family of three to live on, but taking over a shop worth hundreds of square meters and millions of dollars is simply a pipe dream.

Moreover, none of my relatives are well-off, and I have no place to borrow so much money from, which is far beyond my current ability.

However, for the boss, he had been running the restaurant for several years and had some savings.

Whether to take over the shop or not actually depends on his decision.

As long as you decide to take it, you can do it if you try hard enough.

Since it was money that he couldn't earn himself, Chen Cheng planned to use it to make a deal with the boss.

He just told the boss:

I have a good friend whose parents both work in municipal government agencies. A few days ago, when I went to his house to play on his computer, I accidentally saw a demolition document drafted by his father on the computer. The demolition area included this restaurant, and the date on the document was the end of September. As long as he bought this shop before the end of September, he would definitely make a lot of money.

In this statement, the characters, relationships, background, opportunities, and underlying logic all formed a closed loop, and the boss immediately believed what he said. Moreover, anyone who has done business knows that for any opportunity to make money, the only way to get 100% reliable news is after the fact. If he still doesn't believe what I said after saying this, then he deserves not to make the money and can only wait for the demolition announcement to come out and beat his chest and stamp his feet.

Since the story is purely fictitious, even if the boss accidentally lets it slip, I can always say that it was just a guess.

From a legal perspective, you won't have any trouble.

Moreover, this statement can also be used to control the other party.

Because Chen Cheng told him that this was insider information he had obtained accidentally. Once he followed his advice and bought the shop, he would be participating in insider trading.

The penalties for insider trading are very severe, ranging from confiscation of illegal gains to legal prosecution.

Chen Cheng's statement is not alarmist. The boss can find out by asking someone who knows the law.

So, the boss was immediately intimidated by him.

Not only did I trust his words more, but I also repeatedly reminded myself to keep my mouth shut.

He couldn’t even tell his wife the whole story, so he made a fortune in silence!

The reason why he was still polite to Chen Cheng after he got the news was because Chen Cheng had left a loophole in his statement.

The boss was also afraid that Chen Cheng would tell this matter to others in the future. If that happened, all his efforts would be in vain.

The news that Chen Cheng revealed to the boss involved nearly a million in profits, so he also left himself some room for imagination.

He just told the boss that he revealed such important information to him not just in exchange for a meal, but also to wait for him to successfully demolish the house so that he could give him a red envelope as a kickback.

The boss also agreed readily. He knew that if this matter really came to pass, he would definitely have to pay Chen Cheng a hush money.

As for how much the red envelope would be, Chen Cheng did not mention it.

It is known that the other party can earn nearly a million. How much benefit you can get from him depends on your own ability.
