The Goddess is a Little Pitiful, I Invested in Her!

Chapter 86: Who Knows How to Have Fun?

The selection of the new store location was swift. In reality, Qi Yun had already made his choice.

After all, he had a ten-year advantage over Lian Qingxue regarding familiarity with the provincial capital.

Without mentioning anything else, he understood which shopping malls would have better development in the future.

The new store wasnt as cheap as in Spring City. Including overall rent and decoration, Qi Yun spent nearly 800,000 yuan.

Qi Yun had received a rebate of over two million yuan, and the cash in his account officially exceeded ten million, achieving his small goal.

He still used the services of the previous decoration company because they were familiar with Qi Yuns requirements. Therefore, the decoration for the new store progressed faster this time.

It was just over a month, and Snow Teas new store in the provincial capital was ready to open.

Lin Lin stood somewhat dumbfounded in the lobby of the Hilton Hotel in the provincial capital. She felt a bit at a loss.

Qi Yun had called her here because he intended to make her the store manager of the provincial capital branch.

After all, in the future, neither Qi Yun nor Lian Qingxue would be in the provincial capital, so they needed someone capable of handling things independently. Although Xiao Yue was capable, she still seemed a bit immature.

On the other hand, Lin Lin had ample experience and a composed personality. She was the best candidate to manage the provincial capital store. Qi Yun had promoted her.

Boss, Ive arrived.

Lin Lins voice in the hotel lobby was low, making her feel quite uneasy.

Wait there. Ill send someone to pick you up.

Not long after, a waiter walked over.

Miss Lin, right? Mr. Qi asked me to come and escort you.

Being called Miss Lin for the first time, Lin felt dizzy, following the waiter into the elevator.

When they reached Qi Yuns room, she still hadnt fully regained her senses.

Boss! Upon seeing Qi Yun, Lin Lin quickly called out, her attitude much more respectful than before.

This was normal. After all, Qi Yun had previously interacted with them as a student and didnt carry any aura. But now, at this hotel, Lin Lin suddenly realized that her boss seemed to be a wealthy person. It was inevitable for her to feel a bit restrained compared to before.

Why so formal? Sister Lin, this doesnt seem like you! Qi Yun smiled.

He didnt like to maintain distance from his subordinates. Work was work, and personal life was personal life.

After all, when he used to work, he didnt like those pompous leaders. He often secretly cursed them as idiots!

Its just

Lin Lin opened her mouth but didnt know how to explain.

What? Is it a big deal to stay in a hotel? Alright then, Ill book another room. Since youll be working in the provincial capital, you havent yet found a place to live, right? Just stay here!

Lin Lin felt a bit tempted. She was just an ordinary person. Of course, she wanted to see what a five-star hotel was like. But she immediately returned to reality when she saw the bathtub on the side.

No, no! Ive already found a place to stay. Ill stay at a friends place for the next few days! Lin Lins gaze drifted. Besides

Besides what?

Besides, I shouldnt disturb you and Miss Lians private time, right? Lin Lin clenched her teeth and said, her eyes fixed on the bathtub.

With a look of Moreover, I shouldnt intrude on your private time, right?

Lin Lin bit her lip and said, her eyes fixed on the bathtub, wearing an expression that said, Im well-behaved.

Hmm?

Lian Qingxue and Qi Yun were confused until they followed Lin Lins gaze and noticed the bathtub on the side.

Lian Qingxues face immediately turned red.

Sister Lin, were not

I understand! You guys havent done anything!

Lin Lin waved her hand, interrupting Lian Qingxues explanation.

Cough, Lian Qingxue and I are still very innocent

Right! You guys are the most innocent!

Qi Yun felt that Lin Lins face held an expression that said, I see through everything, but I wont say it.

A joke, a bed, and such a big bathtub.

How much more innocent could you get?

Could I even bear this level of innocence?

Lin Lin had serious doubts.

Indeed, who knew how to have fun, Little Qi?

This bathtub could easily fit two people!

Truly worthy of being a boss!

Qi Yun was truly wronged on this trip to the provincial capital.

Ahem, it was not to say that nothing happened between him and Lian Qingxue.

Well, not nothing. Qi Yun had already unlocked all the achievements except for the final step.

After all, Lian Qingxue was still too young and didnt understand that when a man says he only wants to hold someone without doing anything, its truly from the heart. Sincerely trying to deceive someone.

Although the mans mouth shamelessly deceived him, Lian Qingxue still tightly guarded the last line of defense, causing Qi Yun to return empty-handed.

The bathtub naturally collected dust and didnt fulfill its purpose in Qi Yuns mind.

As for whether they reached first or second base and whether it was pure or impure?

Qi Yun insisted that it must be pure!

At least he was a pure LSP (Loyal Supporter).

Looking at Lian Qingxue, who couldnt lift her head due to shyness, Qi Yun constantly reminded himself in his heart.

Discipline hasnt been achieved, and comrades still need to work hard!

No room for arrogance!

Seeing that Lin Lin really didnt want to stay there, Qi Yun didnt insist.

On the contrary, the invisible barrier between them disappeared after the previous topic.

Sister Lin, actually, Qingxue and I discussed it, and we are planning to reform the system of Snow Tea.

A reform?

Hearing that they were discussing business, Lin Lins attitude became serious.

Yes, we are planning to implement a store manager shareholding system. As long as the store manager achieves the performance target, we will provide share rewards, up to a maximum of ten percent.

Lin Lins eyes instantly lit up.

Her mind quickly calculated that the monthly net profit of the store in Spring City was already stable at over 30,000 yuan. If its a first-tier share, wouldnt it be assets worth over 100,000 yuan?

Even if it was just a non-voting share, she would receive a dividend of 3,000 yuan per month.

You should know that Lin Lins current salary was only around 5,000 yuan, which is considered quite high in this era. With an additional 3,000 yuan, her salary would reach 8,000 to 9,000 yuan, which could be considered a high income, at least in the provincial capital.

Besides, Spring City was just a prefecture-level city. How could it be compared to the provincial capital?

The income in the provincial capital was definitely higher. Lin Lins heart started to race!

Seeing Lin Lins expression, Lian Qingxue and Qi Yun exchanged glances. They were both generous people, so they were willing to offer this share.

Moreover, Qi Yun considered that they would all leave the provincial capital, and in reality, Lin Lin was the one supporting the provincial capital. Giving her a share would greatly boost Lin Lins motivation.

This was also a method used by many future chain stores, such as certain seafood, to persuade store managers internally, provide profit-sharing, and create a company culture. It could greatly enhance the employees sense of belonging.

At that time, Qi Yun also heard a joke about a guy who wanted to open a hot pot restaurant and planned to learn from seafood. But after two months, when friends approached him about opening a restaurant, he refused and told them, I cant leave my family!

Jokes are jokes, but Qi Yun still intended to learn something from them.

He and Lian Qingxue had already discussed that they didnt want to find franchisees in order to maintain quality.

Therefore, they could only resort to internal methods to recruit franchisees, effectively transforming someone like Lin Lin into a franchisee.

Not only that, Sister Lin, as you know, our store plans to expand nationwide. You are an old member of our company. If you perform well in the provincial capital, its not impossible for you to be promoted to the general manager of the whole province or even manage the company nationwide! At that time, let alone this hotel, you can stay in any hotel in the country! Live there every day of the year!

Seeing Lin Lins excited expression, Qi Yun exaggeratedly painted a bright future.

Lin Lin: No, Im a bit dizzy!

And I feel like laughing!

I never thought that I was just a small store manager. When did I start to imagine having such an extensive career?

Boss! Lin Lin slapped her chest loudly.

You can have peace of mind! Starting today, I, Lin Lin, will establish myself in the provincial capital and give my utmost dedication and commitment to the company. I promise to manage the provincial capital store excellently on your behalf!

Seeing Lin Lin leave the hotel confidently, Lian Qingxue couldnt help but give Qi Yun a disdainful look.

I feel like youre just as good at fooling people when you were talking to me.

She had doubts, realizing she was just as naive as Lin Lin was back then, believing she could change the world after hearing a few sentences. She felt like she was a future business tycoon who could change the world.

How is that called fooling people? I was just telling the truth!

Qi Yun retorted with his head held high. Although it was all boasting, Qi Yun believed that he and Lian Qingxue could turn their bragging into reality.

The present exaggerations would become future achievements!

Hmph! Who believes you? Lian Qingxue rolled her eyes at Qi Yun. Tonight, were sleeping in separate blankets! Sister Lin, what have you made her think of!

Qi Yun: Regretting that Lin Lin was too talkative!

Just wait for me to deduct your salary!

The next day, Qi Yun woke up feeling tight in his chest. He lowered his head and saw Lian Qingxue waking up in a daze, still tightly holding onto him, her hands raised over her head.

I didnt do anything! You were the one who crawled umm, umm, umm!

Lian Qingxue indicated she didnt want to listen and was confident that Qi Yun was responsible.

She, a pure little fairy, wouldnt crawl into Qi Yuns blanket!

With Lin Lin arriving in the provincial capital, it marked the beginning of the Snow Tea shops branch in the provincial capital getting on the right track.

Just as Lin Lin was enthusiastically preparing to open the store, the day to release the college entrance examination results finally arrived!

Qi Yun wasnt nervous, but Lian Qingxue, early in the morning, picked up the hotel phone, ready to check the results.
