Who would still start a business seriously after being reborn?

Chapter 88 What is a profiteer?

Although Zhou Rongjun thought so in his heart, he still said: "If your little enemy is really the deputy manager of Momo Internet Cafe, then this matter will probably need to be considered in the long run."

"Still thinking about it in the long run? He's just an employee, just get rid of him." Li Bing said anxiously.

Zhou Rongjun couldn't hold it in any longer and frowned, "Li Bing, can you use your brain? Their competition is about to start, and the whole Jingzhou city is promoting it. You're going to go over and beat someone up now? Are you thinking about kicking the sewing machine?"

"I, I just can't swallow this." Li Bing sat down with an annoyed look on his face, his eyes flashing with anger.

"Everything I said to you the other day was fucking wasted." Zhou Rongjun cursed, then said in a deep voice, "Just bear with it for now. Once you've registered for university, you can do it."

"Registration for university enrollment?" Li Bing was stunned and said, "Do we have to wait that long? Wouldn't that be early September?"

"Nonsense! By the time this competition is over, it'll be at least the end of this month. And if we wait for the heat to die down, it'll have to be early September, right?" Zhou Rongjun slowly poured Li Bing a cup of tea and said, "Calm down first. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Their internet cafe is right there, they can't run away."

"Besides, if we start a fight during registration, a lot of things will go smoothly. There will be so many people that day, it's normal for some minor friction to occur." Zhou Rongjun tempted, "You will be responsible for finding students from Handong University to beat up Du Yusheng. You are from the same university, so even if the matter gets out of hand, the school will intervene and calm it down. At most, they will issue an internal warning. I will find someone to beat up Cheng Yi."

"Okay." Li Bing gritted his teeth and said, "You better beat him harder! It's better to take a picture for me. I want to see his bruised face."

"No problem." Zhou Rongjun smiled.

Soon, Li Bing said again: "By the way, Uncle Zhou, I hired a few Red Alert experts for you. I'll have them come over to take a look at you this afternoon."

"A Red Alert expert?" Zhou Rongjun asked in surprise, "Is he very powerful?"

"They must be amazing," Li Bing said proudly. "One of them was the runner-up in the Yantai City Internet Cafe Red Alert Joint Competition."

"Internet Cafe Red Alert Joint Competition? Has Yantai City ever held such an event?" Zhou Rongjun was very surprised.

However, he could also understand that although Yantai City was not the provincial capital, due to its coastal location, its GDP had always ranked first in the province and it had many IT companies.

This kind of emerging activity is not uncommon in Yantai City.

Zhou Rongjun asked, "How much do they want?"

"It's not expensive. Just pay what you pay." Li Bing said proudly, "Several Internet cafe owners in Yantai City have business dealings with my family. They also want to curry favor with me."

"Okay, if I win the championship this time, I will give you all the prize money." Zhou Rongjun's mood suddenly became better.

He added, "That's not right. Why only invite the runner-up? Wouldn't it be better if we spent some money and invited the champion as well?"

"Hey, forget it. That champion was always hanging out at internet cafes, and his father got mad and sent him away." Li Bing said, "If I could get in touch with him, I'd invite them all over for you. But it's okay. This time, I've invited the runner-up and third-place finishers, and also called in three top players from the quarterfinals. First place is a sure thing."

"Okay!" Zhou Rongjun felt relieved. He seemed to see the scene where the six words "Flying Internet Cafe Team" were rising in popularity under the publicity of Jingzhou Daily.

After leaving the travel agency, Cheng Yi went to Xizi Hanyan Tailor Shop.

Walking into the store, Xi Zihan was cutting fabrics skillfully. Seeing Cheng Yi come in, he smiled and said, "Boss Cheng, the three sets are on the table. Can you take a look at them?" "No need to look. Your craftsmanship is definitely fine." Cheng Yi put away the three sets of maid uniforms, put the cash on the table, and said, "Order me six more sets. Just make them according to the measurements and shoulder width I sent you."

Xi Zihan looked at Cheng Yi in surprise and said, "Do all the girls there have the same measurements? This maid outfit won't look good if it doesn't fit."

Cheng Yi smiled and said, "My recruitment criteria is based on these measurements, so they will definitely fit."

"You're so awesome. You even recruit people based on their measurements. What industry are you in?" Xi Zihan looked at Cheng Yi with curiosity.

"Didn't I tell you? I run an Internet cafe." Cheng Yi told the truth.

"Forget it, I won't ask if you're not comfortable telling me." Xi Zihan put the money on the desk into his pocket.

"Boss Xi, it's pitch dark here. Why don't you consider moving to another shop?" Cheng Yi asked, looking at the low and dim shop.

Xi Zihan said unhappily, "I do want to change. Nowadays, there are more and more ready-made clothes made by machines. They are cheap and of good quality. Who would want to make custom clothes anymore? Now I just do some trouser leg alterations or something."

"You have to go the high-end route and stop competing with those small tailor shops." Cheng Yi advised.

Xi Zihan glanced at Cheng Yi and thought that Cheng Yi was the kind of person who could talk without any hesitation.

High-end route? He wanted to do it, but who would ask him to do it?
If Cheng Yi wasn't his biggest financial backer this year, he would have already started to criticize him.

Cheng Yi naturally knew what Xi Zihan was thinking. He laughed and said, "How about this? I'll invest in a store for you. You'll just be responsible for the work, and the profits and losses will be mine. Do you think this is okay?"

Xi Zihan looked at Cheng Yi in disbelief and said, "Boss Cheng, please don't make fun of me."

"Do I look like I'm joking?" Cheng Yi said, "I'll give you 30 yuan, and we'll set up a clothing design company. You can use your technology to buy a 1500% stake, and I'll give you yuan a month. Is that acceptable?"

"1500 yuan?" The scissors in Xi Zihan's hand fell to the ground with a snap.

He couldn't even make 1500 yuan in two months? He made only 300 yuan in total from the six suits he made for Cheng Yi, and big orders like this only come around once every few months.

"Then I'll do it with you. Don't regret it, okay?" Xi Zihan said, "I'm a scoundrel. If you regret it, I'll lie in front of your store every day."

"Hahaha, don't worry, I can support you. You just prepare first. I'll come to you in mid-September to finalize the store and company matters." After Cheng Yi finished speaking, he left the tailor shop with the clothes.

His internet cafe was about to enter a period of rapid development, with dozens, hundreds, and even thousands of network administrators. The number of clothes needed for the network administrators alone would be in the tens of thousands. Furthermore, it was already August or September, and with the advent of online gaming next year, he would have to start a business of female companions, right? This would mean another huge clothing expense.

Based on 20,000 sets of clothes, he would need to pay Xi Zihan nearly four million in clothing fees.

A monthly rent of 1500 yuan saves millions in expenses. This deal is a good deal no matter how you look at it.
