Chapter 163
Chapter 163
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, Shi Zhen and Guan Baiyu went to the capital together.
Shi Zhen didn't plan to meet the Mu family, but he was afraid that Guan Baiyu would be wronged if he went, so he followed.
When they arrived in the capital, he and Guan Baiyu directly lived in the house of Mu Tian and Jiang Xingsheng.
In the next few days, Guan Baiyu followed Mu Tian and the others to meet Mu Tian's family members and friends of Mu Tian and Jiang Xingsheng. As for him, he ran around every day.
He doesn't plan to come here to develop, and it's useless to know these people. If he has this time, he might as well visit the construction site here.
Shi Zhen walked around, and then felt... the current house is really too cheap.
At this time, everyone did not have the idea of buying a house and waiting for the appreciation. They all bought it for themselves, and the price of the land was not getting higher and higher, so that the housing price in the capital was very low in Shi Zhen's eyes.
Too bad he doesn't have the money to buy it now.
It cannot be said that there is no money. It can only be said that there are still many places where money will be used in the future, and it cannot be used to buy a house for the time being.
Shi Zhen and Guan Baiyu stayed here until the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, before returning to Changxi City, and then started busying with company affairs. As for Guan Baiyu... he also became busy.
He plans to open an Internet cafe.
Guan Baiyu had already had this idea.
In another part of his life, before he died, he had seen reports about Internet cafes, and he also knew a person who opened an Internet cafe and made a lot of money. After careful consideration, he found that opening an Internet cafe was definitely a good business for him. .
The computer technology he has learned now is enough for him to open an Internet cafe.
The only problem...may be that the cost of opening an Internet cafe in this era is a bit high.
Compared to per capita income, computers are too expensive now.
But he can't bear it.
After making the decision to open an Internet cafe, Guan Baiyu did some research.
As far as he knows, the earliest Internet cafe was opened in Shanghai two years ago. At that time, it was not called an Internet cafe, but a computer room, and the Internet access fee was 40 yuan an hour.
Back in 96, pork was only sold for 3 yuan a catty. In Anshan Town, most ordinary workers earned three to four hundred yuan a month.
But this era is so fragmented.
The explosion of Internet cafes probably started this year and reached its peak in early 2000. At that time, it was not a problem to open a larger Internet cafe with an annual income of over one million.
If you open a few more... you can earn millions a year.
At that time, the per capita salary was seven or eight hundred.
Of course, in this era, opening an Internet cafe also requires a huge investment and a lot of money, and most people really can't open it.
Guan Baiyu dared to open it. On the one hand, Huaguang has developed very well. Although his shares have been diluted, he still received [-] dividends at the end of the year.
In addition, he worked as an overseas study agency, opened a printing shop for the past six months, plus the red envelopes given by Mu Tian and the others... a total of 30 has been saved.
He has 40 in funds. Although it is not as much as Shi Zhen's, Shi Zhen's money is useful and cannot be embezzled. It is different on his side. He can spend the money as he wants. flower.
Of course, the money is still not enough, so Guan Baiyu plans to get some more money, as for how to get it... You can find Liang Qinxuan, and many rich second generations he knows through Liang Qinxuan's relationship.
In Liang Qinxuan's hands, he also has the dividends from Huaguang that he just received, plus the money given by Liang's father during the Chinese New Year, there are hundreds of thousands.
Not to mention those rich second generations!Who doesn't have one hundred and eighty thousand?
Guan Baiyu asked Liang Qinxuan to meet.
After Mu Tian and the others left Changxi City a year ago, Guan Baiyu and Liang Qinxuan met once, but they haven't seen each other since.
This time, Guan Baiyu took the initiative to ask Liang Qinxuan to meet at the newly opened coffee shop in Changxi City. As soon as Liang Qinxuan saw him, he was very angry: "Oh, busy man, you finally have time to see me!"
Liang Qinxuan looked like a resentful woman, and Guan Baiyu laughed: "Sorry, I was too busy before."
"Oh, forget it, I can't blame you... By the way, how do you feel when you go to the capital?" Liang Qinxuan said.
Although Liang Qinxuan didn't meet Guan Baiyu much, he called Guan Baiyu from time to time, and the contact with Guan Baiyu was never broken.
Guan Baiyu recognized his biological parents and went to the capital, he knew about it, and his first thought after knowing it... was that Guan Baiyu was getting better and better.
As the only child of the two professors...Guan Baiyu probably can walk sideways in H University.
As for Guan Baiyu not having time to see him... this is also normal.
Isn't this going to the capital to meet relatives?
Now Guan Baiyu looks for him as soon as he comes back, obviously he regards him as a friend very seriously!
Guan Baiyu ordered two cups of coffee and two small cakes, and told Liang Qinxuan what he had seen and heard in the capital.
Liang Qinxuan has been playing around in the past few years, and he has been to the capital, but Guan Baiyu has seen those people, but he can't see them even if he wants to, so he can't help being amazed.
While chatting, Guan Baiyu asked, "Liang Qinxuan, do you want to do business with me?"
"What business do you want?" Liang Qinxuan asked.
"I'm going to open an Internet cafe... how much money do you have?"
Liang Qinxuan frowned, a little proudly: "I made a fortune in the next year, and now I have about 40."
"You use the 40 yuan to invest, and I'll give you 30.00% of the shares in the Internet cafe, how about it?" Guan Baiyu asked.
He didn't expect Liang Qinxuan to have 40 in his hands... If he had so much money, he wouldn't have to find those rich second generations to cooperate with.
Liang Qinxuan was stunned for a moment before he said: "This is not good, the money is all given to you, what should I spend?"
"Didn't your father give you living expenses every month?" Guan Baiyu said: "If you don't give me the money, it will be spent in the end. If you give it to me... it will become a chicken that lays golden eggs. Is it not good?"
Liang Qinxuan believed in this.
Guan Baiyu has real skills, not to mention that it was Guan Baiyu's idea to open Huaguang Stationery in the first place, just say that in the past six months...
In the past, Guan Baiyu was in high school, so he had no time or space to give him a chance to play, but when he went to college... Look!In just half a year, Guan Baiyu earned at least 20 yuan!
Now Guan Baiyu wants to open an Internet cafe... To be honest, he doesn't know what it is, but Guan Baiyu thinks that if he can make money, most of the time he can make money.
But he usually doesn't live on the [-] a month living expenses given by his father!
He has a car and a girlfriend to keep, and he has to eat, drink and have fun with friends... All he spends is Huaguang's dividends and red envelopes from his parents.
What's more miserable is that, when all his current funds add up, 40 is actually a few thousand short...
"I'll vote 30..." Liang Qinxuan said, leaving [-] is enough for him to spend a year.
"My capital this time is nearly 50 yuan, and I will also be responsible for decoration and operation, etc. You only invest 30 yuan... You won't get much shares, and you won't get much dividends... The buy price is 40 yuan, not less." Guan Baiyu was short of 40 yuan.
Although he has other channels to get money, but if he can catch a sheep to pluck its wool, he doesn't bother to catch a few more.
As for borrowing money from Shi Zhen... Shi Zhen has to start work on such a big project, and needs more working capital, so he doesn't plan to ask Shi Zhen for money.
Liang Qinxuan hesitated.
Guan Baiyu said again: "How about this, you pay 40. For the sake of being a brother, I will give you 40.00% of the shares. Of course, if this is the case, you can't ignore the various things in the Internet cafe. You have to help me share some."
In fact, he only has 40 in cash, and if Liang Qinxuan offered 40... He originally planned to give Liang Qinxuan 40.00% of the shares.
He would be at a loss if he gave half of it. After all, it was his idea, and he would probably have to worry about how to decorate it and install the computer.
Liang Qinxuan was still a little hesitant.
Guan Baiyu said again: "Liang Qinxuan, you opened Huaguang when you were in high school. Don't you plan to do something when you are in college? Are you really going to eat, drink and do nothing every day?"
Liang Qinxuan didn't realize it before, but when Guan Baiyu said it... he suddenly realized that when he was in college, he really didn't do anything.
In fact, compared to other people, he still did some things, at least because he was hit by Guan Baiyu, he practiced with his father during the winter and summer vacations, and has a clear understanding of the company's operations.
But he is in the provincial capital and really has no career...every day he eats, eats and plays.
He can't go on like this, he has to fight!
Liang Qinxuan planned to pool together the 40 yuan, but just as he was about to agree, he thought of something, and suddenly said: "Well, Guan Baiyu, tell me who your girlfriend is, and I will vote for the 40 yuan. Help you!"
He really wanted to know who Guan Baiyu's girlfriend was!
He has been curious for months!
Hearing what he said, Guan Baiyu laughed immediately: "Okay."
Liang Qinxuan looked at Guan Baiyu with gossip all over his face, as if he was listening attentively.
Guan Baiyu stirred the coffee in his cup with a spoon, paused and said, "I have been in love for more than half a year, but I have not made a girlfriend, but a boyfriend."
"What?" Liang Qinxuan suspected that he had heard wrong.
Guan Baiyu chose this coffee shop because the environment is quiet and there are no people there. In order to facilitate conversation, he also chose a corner location.
After looking around and making sure that no one around could hear him, Guan Baiyu laughed: "The summer vacation after the college entrance examination... I took my brother down."
"You...you..." Liang Qinxuan was stunned: "Did I hear correctly?"
"No." Guan Baiyu laughed.
"That's your brother..."
"We have no blood relationship at all, he found the wrong person... When I was in my third year of high school, he found out about this and started helping me find my biological parents, but I like him," Guan Baiyu laughed, "Just right, He liked me too, and we were together."
The matter between him and Shi Zhen, he will use different words to different people.
Liang Qinxuan: "..."
Guan Baiyu ate and drank coffee calmly.
After a long time, Liang Qinxuan couldn't help cursing: "Fuck!"
After cursing, he finally recovered his voice: "I just said that you two are too close, you miss your brother all the time..."
Liang Qinxuan chattered for a long time and had to accept this matter.
Guan Baiyu knew he would accept it.
Liang Qinxuan was quite open, saying all day long that he wanted a DINK and so on. He had tried it before, and Liang Qinxuan didn't use disgust when he heard him talk about homosexuality, only curiosity.
In fact, even if Liang Qinxuan didn't ask, he would talk about it after a while.
In his heart, he hoped that more people would know about it.
Guan Baiyu waited until Liang Qinxuan had finished talking, then changed the topic: "Okay, let's talk about opening an Internet cafe."
In fact, there are already Internet cafes in the provincial capital.
Guan Baiyu had visited it before, and the Internet cafe was relatively small.
This time, he plans to invest 80 yuan at a time, just to build a bigger and more luxurious Internet cafe. He has even taken a fancy to the house, and is waiting for a few days to negotiate the lease and then go to decorate it.
Nowadays, the price of computers is already lower than before. If you buy it personally, you can buy it for seven or eight thousand.
Computers in Internet cafes can be assembled by buying accessories by themselves, and there are also discounts for bulk purchases. The price should be controlled at around [-].
Guan Baiyu plans to buy at least one hundred computers at a time, and the remaining money will be used for decoration, as well as buying tables and chairs, etc.
Guan Baiyu talked with Liang Qinxuan for a long time, and found that the current Liang Qinxuan knows a lot.
It seems that the internship in his father's company was not for nothing.
Guan Baiyu didn't plan to open only one Internet cafe, he planned to open another Internet cafe when he had money after opening this Internet cafe.
Internet cafes have only made money in the past few years. After these few years, more and more people follow the trend of opening Internet cafes, and the state has become more and more strict. up.
He negotiated with Liang Qinxuan and returned to his and Shi Zhen's house in Changxi City.
He planned to go to the provincial capital after the Lantern Festival...Firstly, there was a lot of preparation work to be done to open an Internet cafe, and secondly...he would start school soon.
Guan Baiyu told Shi Zhen about opening an Internet cafe.
Shi Zhen really didn't know that Internet cafes could earn so much. He remembered it in his previous life... For many years after Guan Baiyu passed away, countless parents condemned Internet cafes.
But later many families had computers, and fewer people went to Internet cafes.
After the popularity of smartphones, even fewer people went to Internet cafes.
At least those kids don't save money to go to Internet cafes, they only save money to buy a second-hand mobile phone.
"Can you really earn that much?" Shi Zhen asked.
Guan Baiyu said: "In the current situation, I charge five yuan for an hour of surfing the Internet, isn't it too much? One computer, used for ten hours a day, is 50 yuan, and one hundred computers are 5000 yuan a day, 30 days a month. , that is 15."
Shi Zhen: "..." This is too much money!
Guan Baiyu laughed: "Of course, electricity and network fees, etc., all require money, but...there are no computers in Internet cafes, and they are only used by people for ten hours a day...Some Internet cafes are open all night, and the computers are 24 hours a day. No downtime for hours."
Shi Zhen lay flat on the bed.
He felt a little pitiful.
Alas, the workers under his hands work so hard every day, and the money they earn is not as much as a computer. After the workers are paid wages, even less money goes to him.
Guan Baiyu lay on his stomach and began to tease Shi Zhen.
Shi Zhen couldn't bear it any longer: "Don't be like this..."
Guan Baiyu laughed loudly, and said again: "Brother, I am using a beauty trick on you! You can be regarded as a trick."
"Then I fell for it."
"Well, then I'm going to start making requests...Brother, you can help me make a design, and then help me decorate it." Guan Baiyu said.
Shi Zhen is planning to open another Baishi Decoration Company recently, and has already recruited many people.
Guan Baiyu plans to decorate the Internet cafe and let his own people go, saving money and ensuring speed.
As for the decoration style, he can discuss it with Shi Zhen and decide on it.
After the Lantern Festival, Guan Baiyu went to the provincial capital, and then rented a two-storey shop in a newly built bustling commercial center not far from H University, covering an area of about 180 square meters.
These two layers add up to more than 300 square meters, which can be used for his actions.
After Guan Baiyu rented the house, he immediately brought decoration workers from Changxi City to the provincial capital to let them decorate the shop.
He planned to decorate the ground floor as a regular Internet cafe, and make the second floor into private rooms, with computers with better configuration and higher computer prices, so as to make money from the rich.
In his Internet cafe, snacks and drinks can also be sold.
As for the decoration style...of course it is as fashionable as it is!
The current Internet cafe is a high-consumption place, so naturally it can't be too ordinary.
When Guan Baiyu was busy with renovations, he got the business license to open an Internet cafe and it was approved.
Being able to approve it so quickly has something to do with Mu Tian and Jiang Xingsheng.
Professors of their age... If you talk about it casually, there are alumni everywhere, people taught by them and their friends, even working in any place.
Nowadays, the approval for opening an Internet cafe is not strict, and it is even easier to approve one.
Guan Baiyu started working in such a hurry.
