Gazing at the Rainbow - v2 Chapter 244

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the snow is falling.

Lin Yao came to Nitang Village not far from the Qiantang River, ten kilometers away from the main city of Hangzhou.

The terrain here is low-lying, and water will accumulate when it rains. Moss can be seen in the corners of the road and wherever you can see.

Lin Yao drove tremblingly on the bumpy road, fearing that electric cars or pedestrians would suddenly appear in those narrow alleys like canine teeth, and she would be caught off guard.

Fortunately, there were few people going out in this situation. She successfully found the house with the largest footprint and the most unique shape at the head of the village—Wangjiang Tower, which has not yet officially opened for business.

Why is it unique?

What appeared in front of her was a typical five-story building in the style of a rural villa that was particularly popular in Hangzhou around 2000. There are many rooms and a large lightning rod is installed on the roof.

The house not only occupies a large area, but also has a large yard, and it is surrounded by vacant land. Now it is full of construction waste that is too late to clean up.

The second is that the old cucumber house is painted with green paint, and it is fitted with antique wooden doors, ribbed windows, and red lanterns. At first glance, it looks a bit nondescript.

Under Li Renhai’s strong request, the three of them arranged a year-end dinner here.

Li Renhai had been waiting there for a long time. He ardently directed Lin Yao and Jian Wen to park the car, then opened and propped the long-handled umbrella in his hand, handed it to the hands of Lin Yao and Jian Wen, and smiled towards them. Said: “Welcome to Mr. Jian and Mr. Lin!”

Lin Yao smiled and said, “Boss Li is polite.”

But Jian Wen calmly said, “Li Renhai, your place is too partial, I can’t find it with navigation.”

When Li Renhai heard this, the smile on his face was a little stiff, and he scratched his head, “It should be okay, I found here when I came.”

Li Renhai’s house is definitely the best house in the entire Nitang Village, and it is also the house closest to the Qiantang River, but to come here, you must pass through the Nitang Village.

Even if they opened the navigation and almost couldn’t find the place, how did other guests find this place?

Without a source of customers, how could his teahouse be opened?

Lin Yao was not optimistic about Li Renhai’s opening of Wangjiang Tower from the beginning, but everyone was in the early stage of entrepreneurship…

She comforted: “It’s really close to the Qiantang River. If you can drive here directly from the river in the future, it will be pretty good.”

Li Renhai was enthused and agreed: “Mr. Lin is too witty. I just got inside information. Roads will be built on the riverfront soon. It is very likely that a park will be built in one or two years. Then I hurriedly started buying. Get off this unique river view room…”

Jian Wen and Lin Yao looked at each other, Li Renhai’s courage was too bold.

Regardless of how his “inside information” was obtained, whether it is true, how quickly “soon” is, at least in a short period of time, this will not change.

“If this is the case, you will make a lot of money.” Lin Yao followed his words first, and then suggested euphemistically, “However, before that, you can advertise on the Internet. It is best to make more guidance cards, at least to get people Find it here.”

Li Renhai rubbed his hands and said with a smile: “That’s for sure. I have already asked the Nitang Village Committee. You can hang a guide sign on the telephone pole. By the way, it’s cold outside, let’s talk inside.”

Lin Yao and Li Renhai were discussing how to build Wangjiang Tower as they walked, but Jian Wen still sullenly walked behind without saying a word.

Li Renhai led them through the quaint lobby and stepped on the wooden escalator with a bit of ancient charm to the top of the building. Nitang Village is not far from the Qiantang River, but it is impossible to sit in the courtyard or in the box and look at the river. That is to say, you can see the river surface only when you stand on the top of the building.

“With these, I’m afraid it will be difficult to attract customers to come to drink tea.” Jian Wen didn’t say much, but this time she talked endlessly. She hurriedly raised many shortcomings to Li Renhai’s teahouse,” let’s talk about Nitang Village. What place is it? Even me, a northerner, knows that the environment here is not good, and there are even some problems with law and order. Who can think about it and run here to drink tea?”

Jian Wen’s remarks are not exaggerated. Lin Yao had heard of Nitang Village before but had never been to it. The environment here is messy and illegal traders gather together. Occasionally there are incidents of drunken disturbances and fights on the social news. In some respects , Here is not as good as Chengdong!

Lin Yao didn’t understand what Li Renhai thought, so she chose to open a teahouse in such a place?

However, Li Renhai’s investment in Wangjiang Tower should not be small, and he is now focused on starting a business. In this case, it would be inappropriate to pour cold water on him…

Jian Wen still frowned. “I understand that many teahouses on the market are facing many business problems. Many teahouses have been in a state of loss after opening for several years. In particular, some newly opened teahouses are often not opened. Faced with the problem of closing doors for a long time…”

Lin Yao hurriedly pulled Jian Wen’s sleeve to tell her to pay attention and don’t criticize too harshly.

Li Renhai replied: “It’s okay, I know that Jian Wen said these are for my good.”

Lin Yao tried to play round the field, “You are almost finished decorating, you can try to advertise after you clean up.”

It is difficult to open a teahouse, and it is even more difficult for Li Renhai’s Wangjiang Tower to improve, at least there will be no improvement in a short time.

Unless the vacant land south of his Wangjiang Tower is really like others say, building roads, building parks… that possibility is not high.

Lin Yao didn’t support Li Renhai’s opening of Wangjiang Tower at the beginning, and she didn’t persuade Li Renhai, but Li Renhai seemed confident in her career and couldn’t listen to it at all.

Besides, he has bought the house, the decoration has been completed, and the money has been poured in. Seeing that the opening is about to start, it is too late to persuade Li Renhai to change his mind at this time.

Jian Wen lightly hugged her arms to her chest and sneered coldly, “It’s too early to advertise. I heard that advertising is valuable. Besides, it’s not time yet. Look at him on this floor. What is it?

It’s messed up everywhere here, and people feel bad as soon as they enter the door. If I really see an advertisement on the Internet and drink tea here, I will turn around and leave in all likelihood. “

The location of Wangjiang Tower is not very good, not to mention that the tea house is surrounded by various construction wastes. I don’t know how long it will be transported away. This is an important reason that Jian Wen can’t bear it.

Lin Yao said convincingly: “Those things are piled up, they are really unsightly, and they must be disposed of before the trial operation.”

Li Renhai put them in the box, and he smiled laboriously, “This is not the end of the year, everyone is eager to go home for the New Year, I actually can’t find someone to help me clean up those things, it will be fine after the first year.”

In fact, otherwise, after the New Year, migrant workers in Hangzhou will not return to Hangzhou too quickly.

After that, Li Renhai went to the kitchen.

Until Li Renhai disappeared outside the box, Jian Wen was still dissatisfied, “Since I have decided to do it, then try to do it by any means. What does it mean to do half and leave half?”

That’s right, but…

Lin Yao looked at Jian Wen in surprise, “Isn’t it just the beginning? We can make some suggestions, but it’s done, and there is no point in attacking him.”

“I didn’t hit her.” Jian Wen frowned, “I’m telling the truth.”

Well, it’s true, but it hurts a bit.

Jian Wen snorted softly, “I don’t know what Li Renhai is thinking, so I opened the teahouse in a good way.”

Lin Yao said, “It’s not that bad. It’s not officially open yet, and the manpower is not complete. Besides, he is alone. How can he consider everything?

Don’t worry, everyone is getting better.

Li Renhai has a good mind, is well-known, and has a lot of courage. Maybe we all have to look up to him in the future. “

“Big brother? Who is he like this?” Jian Wen laughed. “I asked him earlier, why did I think of opening a restaurant? He told one of his little brothers…”

Lin Yao’s “little brother” inexplicably remembered what Li Renhai had said on the phone before.

“This is still the inspiration you brought me… After we had a small gathering at Wanghulou that day, I was thinking, why can Wanghulou stand by the West Lake for many years? If I opened a better one, wouldn’t it be… “

Jian Wen couldn’t help but complain, “Even this house is also the line of his little brother. There is a problem with this sound. How old is he? How can he still be in this kind of file?

Hey, no matter how much money he has, he can’t waste it like this…”

For Lin Yao, the point is that Li Renhai has other little brothers in Hangzhou, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Jian Wen talked a lot before realizing that Lin Yao had been silent, so she asked, “Didn’t he tell you?

If you really want to open a teahouse, you have to do it well. What does it mean to do half of it? “

Lin Yao looked at Jian Wen blankly, she always felt that Jian Wen was not like this before.

Jian Wen’s temperament has always been the most indifferent in the class. It doesn’t matter if she hangs up high, she is talking about. Why is she suddenly so angry with Li Renhai?

Could it be that Jian Wen became a shareholder in the teahouse when she didn’t know it?

How else could he be so excited?

If that’s the case… then it would be boring.

Lin Yao tried to change the subject, “By the way, how are you in the company this year? Have you hired new people?”

Jian Wen curled her lips, “It’s still the same people who finally made some small orders. Hey, it’s really not easy to rely on Carlos to subsidize me. I plan to increase outreach next year.”

Jian Wen talked about some of her thoughts, and Lin Yao felt a little heavy after hearing it.

Her situation is not much better than Jian Wen.

Jian Wen has the support of Carlos, and Lin Yao has Mr. Wen and Hossein. The purchase of small customers in her hands has picked up slightly, and the orders have stabilized.

If she recruits people, it is definitely impossible to directly hand over the two pillars of Mr. Wen and Hossein to the newcomer.

At most, we can only assign small customers to newcomers for practice.

Next, if the newcomer has nothing to do, they will be confused.

You’ll develop a habit after a long time.

How can she open up the situation as soon as possible? She also thought of the exhibition.

Here, Lin Yao is going to discuss with Jian Wenzheng about the exhibition plan for next year, and Li Renhai comes back in sweat.

He excitedly said: “Everyone can **** dad’s craftsmanship today. Let me tell you that my dad’s craftsmanship is very good… my green bean tea, I promise you haven’t drunk it anywhere else… and The tea that I have here is also purchased from many places by my dad.”

Jian Wen saw that he was terrified, and couldn’t help but provoke a stab again, “Why did your father manage the teahouse you opened?”

“He has nothing to do, so he helps me manage the teahouse.” Li Renhai pushed his glasses and said, “I thought about it during this period. If it doesn’t work, I can still find a job. My dad is here. , After the new year, my mother will come too.”

Jian Wen is noncommittal about this.

Lin Yao joked, “Does your wife not give you some advice?” That’s the chief financial officer of a big company. How could Li Renhai be like a headless fly?

Li Renhai hesitated: “She is too busy at work, how can I have time to care about these trivial things. Besides, we agreed in advance to develop our own businesses.”

That is equivalent to an extra way out. If Li Renhai fails to start a business, his wife can still support him. With this house, he can still be a charterer, and at least he has a worry-free life.

Sure enough, Li Renhai’s wife was gentle and pleasant on the outside, and extremely strong on the inside, a strong woman with a strong opinion.

Lin Yao nodded, “I think this is pretty good.”

Jian Wen rarely affirmed: “When two people work together, it is easy to have conflicts. Think about Qin Yi and Lin Yun as good examples.”

When Lin Yun was mentioned, everyone sighed again.

“Ahem!” Li Renhai cleared his throat and asked, “By the way, have you contacted Mr. Lin during this period?”

Jian Wen rolled her eyes directly, “How can we contact her.”

Both Jian Wen and Lin Yao were expelled by Lin Yun.

Li Renhai scratched his head and realized that he had said something wrong, “I just asked casually. By the way, Lingyun’s benefit this year is not bad, and he made 30 million a year.”

Jian Wen picked up the tea cup, took a sip of green bean tea, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said nothing.

Lin Yao said with emotion, “I can make 30 million yuan a year, which is really amazing. When I was in Lingyun, I didn’t exceed it…”

“What?” Li Renhai was stunned, “30 million meters? You think too much! I’m talking about 30 million Chinese yuan!”

Lin Yao was taken aback for a moment, “Are you saying that fifty or sixty of you only made an order of 30 million Chinese yuan?”

Jian Wen put down the teacup and opened her mouth again, “According to the current market, it is very good to be able to make 30 million.”

Lin Yao was a little shocked. During her stay in Lingyun, she made more than 20 million yuan in less than a year, and Mr. Wen alone bought more than 30 million yuan from her.

This shows what?

Jian Wen was interested and asked: “How is Lingyun’s current profit rate?”

Li Renhai sighed~www.mtlnovel.com~Lingyun’s profit is pretty good, at least 15%. It is conservatively estimated that they can make four to five million a year! “

At this moment, Lin Yao couldn’t help reminding him, “This 15% is a price difference rather than a profit. Maintaining the company’s daily operations is a big expense. Besides, you have more than fifty employees with a year’s salary. You have to have several million, and you have to pay rent, water and electricity, broadband, Internet platforms, and go out to participate in exhibitions… all of which require money to support.”

Li Renhai was dumbfounded. “According to you, if they make 30 million a year, they are actually losing money?”

Lin Yao is serious, “Of course, fifty or sixty people, welfare alone is not a small amount, but also pay wages and pay taxes.”

Li Renhai pushed the glasses, and said mysteriously: “I heard that Ling Yun made a loss in order to pay less tax. I didn’t expect it…”

Jian Wen smiled and said: “So, they should be really losing money now, and my heart is balanced again.”

Lin Yao couldn’t help but laugh, “Sure enough, as long as you compare with a worse person, you will feel that your situation is not that bad.”
