Chapter 319: Proposal
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“In the past, it was said that daughters were raised to bi given to other families. 1 think our sons are raised for other families now!” Li Xu said.
After the wedding, Qin Xiaomin and Li Yong stood at the door to see the guests off.
It was inconvenient for Li Xu to take care of the child, so she returned first.
Hu Chunli was with her.
After they left the hotel, Hu Chunli said in a low voice, “Sis, 1 have something to discuss with you!”
Li Xu was a little curious. “What’s the matter? just say it.”
Yang Jingyi tugged at the corner of Hu Chunli’s clothes and said in a listless voice, “Mom, I’m sleepy. Let’s go back first, okay?”
Seeing this, Li Xu quickly said, “How about this? Let’s go to your shop together. You coax Jingyi to sleep first. When she’s asleep, you can tell me.”
Hu Chunli’s eyes were almost droopy as she looked at Jingyi. Her heart ached as she carried her. “Alright, let’s go back to the shop.”
Li Xu knew that Hu Chunli and Jingyi had been working hard.
Her three children would care for each other, and she would be at ease leaving them at home. That was why she could sleep until seven or eight o ‘clock every morning.
On the weekends, they could even sleep until 9:00 or 10:00. That was common.
But Jingyi was alone, and her body…
Hu Chunli didn’t dare to leave her at home, so she dug her out before seven o’clock and brought her to the store.
Although she could sleep in the shop, it was too noisy, and she couldn’t sleep well.
The group of people quickly arrived at the store that Hu Chunli was in charge of.
Yang Jingyi yawned as soon as she entered the store and went to the lounge at the back.
“Let’s go out and play for a while,” Li Xu instructed the three children. “I’ll talk to your Auntie Hu for a while.”
Ji Zi’ang seemed to be in high spirits at all times and immediately pulled Ji Zixuan out.
Ji Yuanyuan had woken up a little early in the morning and was a little listless at the moment.
She leaned on Li Xu’s body and didn’t move.
Li Xu reached out to stroke her hair and didn’t say anything.
“Sister, I have about twenty-five thousand yuan in my hands now. I thought that there wouldn’t be much interest in the bank. With the money I’ve earned, I’ll eat it up sooner or later. If Jingyi needs money in the future, this money will definitely not be enough.” Hu Chunli said in a low voice.
She was thinking a lot, and her expression was a little serious.
Li Xu could understand Hu Chunli’s thoughts. After all, if Yang Jingyi were to really bump into something one day, it might be a big deal.
Twenty-five thousand might seem like a lot, but it might not even last a few days when she sees a doctor.
“You want to…” Li Xu was a little disappointed.
What she was thinking was, could it be that Hu Chunli felt that this job was not earning enough money and wanted to change jobs?
But if that was the case, what was the meaning of her telling him how much money she had?
Thinking of this, Li Xu’s expression was a little uncertain.
She really couldn’t figure out what Hu Chunli was thinking.
If Hu Chunli didn’t want to do this job anymore, it would definitely be a loss for her.
Just as Hu Chunli was about to say something, the store door suddenly opened.
A man appeared at the door.
This man was not tall and had a simple and honest face.
When he saw Hu Chunli, he smiled naively. “Why didn’t you open this morning?”
The two of them seemed to be familiar with each other. Hu Chunli immediately said, “1 went to attend a wedding this morning. If you need anything, you can just take it.”
The man went to the shop and took a few green peppers, and paid the bill.
When it was time to pay the bill, he looked a little helpless. He wanted to talk to Hu Chunli but didn’t know what to say.
He was so clumsy that it was a little cute.
This person didn’t seem like he was here to buy groceries. He seemed more like he had come specially to see Hu Chunli.
Li Xu saw this but didn’t expose him.
After all, this was Hu Chunli’s personal matter.
After the man left, Hu Chunli said, “So, sis, I’ve been thinking about something recently. I have to earn money. I have to make more money as soon as possible with this money.”
“You mean…” Li Xu still didn’t understand what Hu Chunli meant.
“Sis, I want to invest in your store.” Hu Chunli said bluntly.
“Invest?” Li Xu was completely stunned.
She wasn’t very cultured and only interacted with some housewives every day.
To her, the word ‘investment’ was both familiar and strange.
“I know. You opened the shop, and the source of goods is also from your family. All the preparatory work is yours. I only have twenty-five thousand yuan. You won’t be happy if 1 ask you to invest directly.”
From the sales volume of the store, twenty-five thousand yuan was not a big amount for Li Xu.
She would be able to earn it back in less than a year.
“That’s why I’m not greedy. 1 only want 5% of the shares. Moreover, I’ll be in charge of the staff training and the shop inspection.” Hu Chunli said without much confidence.
She had been thinking a lot during this time.
Li Xu’s business was very profitable and had great prospects.
Vegetables were a necessity. No matter when, everyone had to eat.
Now that her reputation had been established, as long as he expanded the scale and controlled the quality, it would be a matter of minutes to make money.
Would Li Xu be willing to give her a share of such a profitable business?
Although she had proposed 5% of the shares, she had actually left some room for negotiation. If Li Xu were to haggle, there would still be room for negotiation.
Hearing Hu Chunli’s words, Li Xu couldn’t react for a long time.
To be honest, she had not thought of this.
“Sister, I’ve carefully calculated it. With this money, we can open at least two more branches before the new year, and the revenue next year will double. Why don’t you go back and think about it with Big Brother Zhang? If it’s okay, tell me. I’ll take out all the money, and we’ll consider opening a branch. If it doesn’t work, it’s fine. I’ll continue to work. Just pretend 1 never said what 1 said today.”
“Alright,” Li Xu said in a low voice. “I have to go back and think about this matter. Once I’ve thought about it, I’ll contact you.”
After leaving Hu Chunli’s shop, Li Xu brought the three children home with a heavy heart.
On the way, she kept thinking about Hu Chunli’s investment.
twenty-fice thousand yuan wasn’t too much, but it wasn’t too little either.
However, now that everything in the store had stabilized, it was only a matter of time before she opened another branch and continued to make money.
Hu Chunli’s participation only sped up the process.
Was it worth using 5% of these shares to speed up the process?
She was a little confused.
Li Xu didn’t know, but Ji Yuanyuan did.
The deal that Hu Chunli had proposed was very worthwhile for them.
Five percent of the shares was not a lot.
However, with Hu Chunli’s twenty-five thousand yuan, they could quickly occupy the entire S City Market.
The rise of a brand will definitely be followed by countless followers.
Quickly occupying the market was equivalent to taking the initiative.
To them, it was a very good deal.
However, she did not analyze this for her mother.
She knew that her mother would definitely agree with Hu Chunli’s proposal..
