Plane Store: I rely on five-star reviews to become rich and live forever
Chapter 1218 I Help the Gods Prevent Hair Loss 25-26
In the Stobel store, the clerk was instructed in advance and led Gu Xingyan and Dr. Bai Zhibai to the reception room.
Along the way, I saw that the employees here were in low spirits. Perhaps they were worried about the store manager's health, or perhaps they were worried about the future of the store and themselves.
Gu Xingyan couldn't help but lower her voice and asked the employee who led the way, "How is your store manager doing?"
The employee smiled bitterly: "The store manager got up after lying down for only a short while. He didn't listen to my advice at all."
Bai Zhi on the side frowned in disagreement.
Arriving at the door of the room, the employee knocked.
"Please come in."
Stobbel's voice was weak.
Gu Xingyan pushed the door open and saw Stoebel sitting on the sofa with a pale face and eyes closed.
Her heart tightened, she walked to the other side, and asked softly: "Stobel, are you okay?"
Stobbel opened his eyes, saw Gu Xingyan, and forced a smile.
"I'm fine, just a little tired."
Gu Xingyan introduced: "This is Doctor Bai Zhibai, I brought him here specially for you to see."
Baizhi took a step forward and nodded slightly to Stoebel.
"Hello, Miss Stobel."
Stobel responded: "Hello."
Then he showed gratitude to Gu Xingyan, "This is the chief doctor in your new store, right? I heard that he is a great doctor from the Plane Alliance. Thank you."
Stobel had no idea how her relationships had come to this point.
Colleagues are like enemies, and opponents become friends.
Gu Xingyan patted her hands and said, "I thought you didn't see the doctor properly, so I came here.
"You must take good care of yourself. You have a lot of employees who are looking forward to your recovery."
Stobbel smiled and nodded.
After taking her pulse, Bai Zhi diagnosed: "Your pulse is very chaotic, your qi and blood are both deficient, and you are also depressed in your heart. You must avoid getting angry."
"Yeah." Stobbel responded.
"Is there any treatment method that doesn't take up too much time? I'm quite busy..."
Bai Zhi had known this would happen, so she sighed and took out the acupuncture kit from the medicine box she carried with her.
"I'll give you a set of acupuncture treatment."
As the silver needle pierced the acupuncture point, Stobbel felt a warm current flowing through her body.
"I'll prescribe some medicine for you later, take it on time." Bai Zhi said, "During this period, you need to relax and don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"Okay." Stobel was still in a low mood and spoke in a low voice.
After Bai Zhi finished her work, Stobel looked up at Gu Xingyan and said, "You came to discuss the acquisition with me, right?"
Gu Xingyan said after careful consideration: "Now there are only three companies left in the park's commercial street. If your Star Company has no such plan, just pretend I never said anything.
"If so, I sincerely hope that you can give us priority. We have no intention of taking advantage of others."
"I know." Stobel's voice was low, "You are different from Caspar.
"Don't even mention taking advantage of someone's misfortune. He is just creating all kinds of unwarranted crises, waiting for an opportunity to swallow us up."
Gu Xingyan nodded in agreement. "That Casper hardly shows up, but he messes up the entire market. He's quite a character."
His cleverness lies in that he gives people a fixed impression of being a stupid and rich man at the beginning, which makes people let down their guard.
Then, he used his system to manipulate public opinion and conquered four stores at an unprecedented speed.
He has money, skills, and wisdom.
Such an enemy makes everyone fearful.
"I hate him," Stobel said.
My colleague is right, she is indeed too rigid and only sees things in black and white, but that's just how she is and she can't change.
She said again: "I hate this kind of people."
Gu Xingyan asked: "So, are you willing to transfer the store to us?"
Stobbel was silent for a moment.
Obviously, his attitude has softened and he is not as opposed as fiercely in front of his colleagues.
After falling down, she thought a lot.
Objectively speaking, it is stupid to struggle to survive in a place where you are destined to be suppressed just to prove yourself.
It's not that she had never failed before. It's just that this time she lost so humiliatingly that she felt ashamed of running away without a fight.
But how much is her dignity worth?
"I am willing."
Gu Xingyan's eyes lit up.
"But I wish it would be of no use."
Stobbel smiled bitterly, "You have to show enough sincerity to impress the company behind me."
She, Stobel, gritted her teeth and said, "I don't want to sell the store to Casper, so I can buy you some time. Whether it succeeds or not depends on you."
Gu Xingyan thought this was good enough, "I understand."
Stobbel told her: "It's not so easy to take over the stores of our Interstellar Company. Before the incident, our profitability was definitely much higher than those of the Transmigrator Alliance.
“Kasper wants to negotiate with us based on the average price, which is impossible. The total price of the five stores plus a discount will be at least 300 million.
"So my advice is, don't focus too much on throwing money, otherwise you'll fall into Casper's comfort zone and have to play by his rules."
Gu Xingyan nodded vigorously, "Yes! I'll think of a way."
Back in the studio, Gu Xingyan told everyone about the situation.
"Three hundred million?" Huobi exclaimed, "How can we come up with so much money?"
Pulse asked: "Can I apply for a loan from the company?"
Vicky waved her hands, "No, I tried that before when I was raising money."
Yun Qingzhi was tangled up and said, "What should we do? Last time we only raised 35 million, which is not enough to buy a store."
Gu Xingyan said thoughtfully: "That's why Stobelle said to buy us some time. Either save up enough money, or offer us something better than money.
"Hmm... I have an idea. I wonder if my Huaguoshan applet can discuss cooperation with Star Company."
"Do you want them to move in?" Yun Qingzhi thought it was feasible. "The customer base of Huaguoshan is indeed very attractive."
Some are gods who govern the planes, and some are quick-travel practitioners who carry out missions in countless worlds.
The Interstellar Company and the "No Name" Group are the same type of plane stores, and they definitely need to tap into more plane resources.
"But since it involves a competing company, I wonder if the group will agree..." Gu Xingyan thought worriedly.
She went back and wrote the proposal that same day and submitted it to her superior.
However, the proposal was quickly rejected.
This result was not too surprising, but the reason given by Manager Inia made Gu Xingyan feel a little uncomfortable.
"The top management believes that the Huaguoshan platform can benefit tens of thousands of stores within the company, and they are all lining up to join. They disagree with letting outsiders cut in line just for five stores."
What do you mean, just for five stores?
For Gu Xingyan personally, it means she can work fewer years.
For the six-member team at the industrial park, these five stores will accelerate the company's dominance in this world.
The senior management's reason seemed to be spoken from the perspective of other store managers, ignoring the interests of Gu Xingyan, the founder and owner.
Everyone wants to get a piece of the pie. Although it is a platform designed by themselves, it seems to be collectively owned by the company.
However, if you change the reason...
Gu Xingyan took a deep breath and told herself to stay calm.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m used to freedom that I become sensitive.
But these five stores are really important to her, and Stobel is willing to help her, so Gu Xingyan doesn't want to give up.
She opened the proposal and began to revise it word by word, explaining the reasons for the feedback and convincing the top management with tangible benefits that could be expected in the future.
When he submitted the proposal again, Gu Xingyan discovered that there were suddenly 53 million more plane coins in his account.
When I clicked on the transaction details, it turned out that someone in the pawn shop had just paid a ransom.
Gu Xingyan followed her heart and rushed to the pawn shop.
In the pawn shop, the generous customer had not left yet and was chatting with Janet while drinking tea.
Gu Xingyan had an impression of him. He was a customer who was introduced by the industrial park specialist to pawn his items.
The item he pawned was the property deed of the park office, which was worth 50 million yuan at the time, a large sum.
The guest was obviously in high spirits and shared his recent experiences with everyone.
“I used the 50 million to make a short-term investment and made 12 million in two months!
"Paying back the three million in interest is equivalent to making nine million empty-handed!"
Gu Xingyan gave timely praise: "You are really amazing."
"No, no," the customer waved his hand, "I still have to thank you pawnshop. If it weren't for you, how would I have gotten this start-up capital?"
Gu Xingyan said with a smile: "This is because you have a good eye for investment."
The customer laughed and said, "Whenever I need money in the future, I will definitely consider Wanfu Pawnshop first."
Gu Xingyan was delighted.
Since the customers who pawned their items some time ago were all introduced here in groups, there were more than one person coming to redeem their items today.
Janet was so busy that she had no time to rest, and Gu Xingyan hurried over to help.
A middle-aged man took an exquisite wooden box from the clerk and opened it carefully.
There was a pocket watch in the box, and the pointer on the dial was still ticking.
"This is what my grandfather left me." The man stroked the pocket watch gently. "When he died, this watch also stopped."
He pawned his pocket watch to Wanfu Pawn Shop, not for money, but just for maintenance.
Now, not only are my old items clean and shiny, but even their faults have been repaired.
"Thank you." The man's eyes were filled with tears.
He paid the interest, touched the pocket watch nostalgically, then put it back in the box and handed it to Janet.
"I'll pawn it for another three months."
If the value of the item was not high enough to qualify for high-end pawning, he would have preferred to pawn it for three years at a time, which would have earned him much less interest.
Although this customer did not make much money for the pawnshop, after several customers redeemed their items, the pawnshop finally made some income.
This gave Gu Xingyan great confidence.
She looked at the account balance and found that one fifth of the three hundred million had been paid.
It doesn't matter if it's fast or slow, it doesn't matter if it's slow.
My money-making speed is pretty good!
At this time, Orange Sugar led a guest out of the appraisal room and settled the bill with Janet:
"A divine artifact, the Nine-linked Golden Needle Spear, in exchange for 55 million Plane Coins."
"I remember a customer said today that he would come to redeem his belongings in the morning. Has he come?" Chengtang asked with a hint of meaning.
Janet glanced behind Orange Candy.
An employee carefully held a glass box with an exquisite weapon suspended inside. It looked so imposing at first glance, no wonder it was a divine weapon.
Janet was very happy. If she died, this artifact would belong to her family.
She hurriedly made a note and whispered, "The guest you mentioned has been gone for half an hour."
She had worked with Chengtang for several months, and after exchanging glances with him, she knew that Chengtang must have lowered the price, otherwise it wouldn't be just over 50 million.
If the customer hadn't come to redeem his items, the deal wouldn't have been done.
After the customer took the money and left, Janet and the other employees gathered around the legendary artifact and marveled at it.
"Congratulations, boss, for getting the treasure!"
This was exactly one of the original reasons why Gu Xingyan wanted to open a pawn shop, hoping to get some treasures from the gods.
But now, Gu Xingyan couldn't feel happy.
She looked at her balance and found it was two million less than when she came.
Chengtang walked up to Gu Xingyan with a cheerful cat-like step and began to introduce the advantages and disadvantages of the artifact.
"Mr. Gu, should we keep this treasure for ourselves or leave it on the stand and wait for the seller?"
Gu Xingyan thought about it and realized that neither she nor her important subordinates used this kind of weapon, and ordinary subordinates simply could not afford it.
So she quickly made a decision: "Let's sell it to the public."
Chengtang nodded and directed the employees to place the artifact in the core of the exhibition area.
There are already more than a dozen valuable items on display in the sales area today, all of which were obtained through pawning, so the pawn shop's tens of billions of start-up capital was spent so quickly.
But these are all necessary expenses. Just one sale is enough to support the entire store for several months.
The financial strength of a pawn shop can be clearly seen from the quality and quantity of its exhibits.
Some picky guests would just turn around and leave if they saw there was nothing good in the exhibition area.
They would feel that this pawn shop does not seem to be committed to its business, but is more likely to be ready to make money and run away at any time.
Chengtang complained that the exhibition area was too empty and felt that there was finally a treasure in the store.
Gu Xingyan took a look at the price of the store's treasure, which had changed from 5500 million to , and she felt a little better.
She walked among the employees, smiled and praised: "Everyone did a great job!"
"It's all thanks to Director Orange Sugar's professional vision!"
“Haha, thank you all for your hard work!”
Gu Xingyan walked over to Janet and reminded her: "Remember to put it on the Huaguoshan mall so it can be sold faster."
Janet responded, "Got it, Boss."
Gu Xingyan looked at the busy employees and felt a little uncomfortable.
Just now I thought I was making money very quickly, but in the blink of an eye I spent more than 50 million.
Although you have obtained a treasure, it cannot be turned into money immediately.
The balance in the account is getting less and less, and the goal of 300 million seems to be further away.
She thought of the proposal she had submitted. If the top management agreed to let her negotiate terms with Interstellar, then there would be no need to get stuck on the 300 million.
As soon as Gu Xingyan stepped out of the pawnshop, the smile on her face disappeared in an instant.
She unconsciously quickened her pace, and the soles of her shoes made a gust of wind.
There is another place that is her biggest cash cow!
Gu Xingyan decided to conduct a surprise inspection of the film and television department on the top floor!
