They kept flattering Brother Chen and invited him to the main seat, their attitudes extremely respectful. After all, they were just ordinary people who had only risen to prominence after joining Xue Ye Bing Cheng.
Snowy Ice City is a top priority for them, and now that Brother Chen has such a network of connections, how can they not curry favor with him?
It will definitely be useful in the future!
The most important thing is that everyone is fawning over you, but you are not. This will make you look different and you might get targeted.
The expressions on their faces grew more enthusiastic.
"Hurry up and pour some wine for Brother Chen!" A franchisee said, "This wine is not good: give me Maozi... Maozi."
"Come...Brother Chen, let me fill it up for you..."
At one time, there were many people picking up food for Brother Chen, pouring wine for him, and even performing on the spot.
Even under the instigation of several franchisees who were Brother Chen's disciples, Brother Chen had become the leader and decision-maker of their group. Of course, he also continued to ask about the Black Dragon Group's attitude towards the Xue Ye Bing Cheng franchise.
"alright..."
After finishing a few drinks, Brother Chen waved his hands and said, "I know what you're worried about. Aren't you worried that if you don't join Bawang Tea, you'll be in trouble? You're worried that there will be restrictions on joining in the future."
"Don't worry about these points. President Li personally told me that if you don't join Bawang Tea, you won't be punished. There will be no restrictions on you continuing to join Xue Ye Bing Cheng in the future. In fact, the more stores you join, the more benefits and discounts you will receive. To put it bluntly, headquarters prefers large franchisees."
Listen to this.
Franchisees breathed a sigh of relief.
Just don't make things difficult for me!
I wish I could continue to join Snowy Ice City!
What they do most now is to watch their income increase day by day, and then once they have enough money to open a store, they will immediately join another one. There are even cases where franchisees borrow money from relatives and take out loans from banks to open a store.
As the saying goes:
The bold will die of overeating, and the timid will die of starvation. They are very optimistic about the current market.
The only thing they need to worry about is that nothing unexpected happens at the headquarters in Xue Ye Bing Cheng. This is why they gathered here so eagerly. They only breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that Brother Chen had a guarantee from President Li.
"but..."
Brother Chen changed the subject and said, "There must be a reason why the higher-ups defined this as a welfare benefit, so I will form an alliance with several Bawang Tea stores. As for you asking me to open one each, I will talk to the higher-ups again. This way, we can absolutely guarantee that everything will go smoothly. You don't have to worry about being framed or missing out on this benefit.
this...
The franchisees looked at each other.
Join one!
The cost is less than 200,000!
Although it wasn't a small amount of money for them, it wasn't unacceptable either. Moreover, as Brother Chen had said, it would be hard to feel at ease if they didn't join any of the companies. Now that Brother Chen was leading the charge, they only needed to follow suit and join one. Even if problems arose, Brother Chen would be there to support them, and they could just wait and see.
Besides, the law does not punish the masses!
They nodded:
"I'll listen to Brother Chen and join one!"
"I'll listen to Brother Chen too!"
"Brother Chen's words must be effective!"
"....."
Soon all the franchisees agreed with Brother Chen's decision and continued to show their loyalty to him.
Two hours later.
The party is over.
Everyone left, and Yuan Dong called a designated driver in advance to help Brother Chen get into the car.
I also came to the co-pilot seat.
Brother Chen: "Yuan Dong, didn't you drive here too? Why are you taking my car? Why don't you call a designated driver?"
Yuan Dong: "It's troublesome to get a designated driver here. I can go back with you and pick up the car tomorrow. Otherwise, it's hard to park at my house."
Brother Chen looked at him meaningfully. How could he not see that Yuan Dong was clearly worried that he had drunk too much and wanted to send him off? Of course, whether he was really worried or just expressing his worry was unknown, but some things are one thing to know, but when you do them, it makes people feel very comfortable.
Yuan Dong: "Brother Chen, how many Bawang Tea stores do you plan to join?"
Brother Chen: "Four!"
Four?
Yuan Dong was surprised, not because he was surprised that Brother Chen had so much money. Although they had not completed the initial accumulation, they had borrowed a lot of money from the bank thanks to the several stores under their name.
2011!
The era of overall economic upturn!
Loans...are still relatively easy!
He was shocked as to why Brother Chen would join four companies. Wouldn't it be better to join eight or nine Xue Ye Bing Cities with that kind of money?
Could it be...
He looked at Brother Chen.
Brother Chen: "Don't look at me, it's not what you think, but I really am optimistic about Bawang Tea."
Look forward to Bawang Tea!
Yuan Dong was even more confused?
Brother Chen: "I'm different from you: I was one of the first franchisees to join Xue Ye Bing Cheng. It was President Li who talked to me personally. When I joined, Xue Ye Bing Cheng wasn't even popular yet. President Li told me at the time that it would be a hit in less than two months. It was his words that inspired me to join."
"At that time, I was penniless and relied entirely on loans…"
He seemed to be telling about his experience of joining Xueye Ice City with great emotion, "When I spoke to Mr. Li yesterday, I heard the firm tone in his words again.
He said:
Ba Wang Tea is bound to be popular!
and...
It won't take more than a month.
They said this is really a benefit for our franchisees. If we miss this month, the franchise fee will definitely increase a lot next month. And opening first will definitely benefit from the times. I thought about it all night yesterday and decided to do it..."
As he spoke, he began to snore.
Yuan Dong's eyes kept flickering in front of him, and he couldn't tell whether what Brother Chen said was drunken talk or what he really meant.
Bawang Tea?
Will it really become popular?
Half an hour later.
Yuan Dong sent Brother Chen home and walked back slowly. The cold air blowing on his face made him feel more energetic. "Damn it, it's the same for one family or two families. We might as well go all in now. Even if we don't make any money, we won't lose money either. We can also get some publicity from the top. Let's do it."
...
On the bed.
Brother Chen rubbed his head as he watched Yuan Dong leave. Of course, he was not just optimistic about Ba Wang Tea. The reason why he said those words at the party today and what he said to Yuan Dong was that he was planning. As long as these people opened a Ba Wang Tea franchise store under his leadership, the higher-ups would definitely pay attention to him, and he would be able to stand out among franchisees across the country.
Even if he had to pay compensation, he believed that the higher-ups would compensate him in Xue Ye Bing City, otherwise it would be bad if it got out.
As for making money?
Not to mention: not only will his several franchise stores make a lot of money, but the other franchisees nearby will also follow his lead while making money. At that time, his status will soar, and he will become a regional franchise spokesperson from a small franchisee.
The invisible benefits are countless.
The most important thing is that no matter which direction this matter develops, he will not suffer any particularly big losses.
Then...how could he not gamble!
"That's it..." Brother Chen muttered, "How will Bawang Tea become so popular again? Why will it become so popular? Another round of online promotion? Is it really coming soon? Will a miracle... happen again?"
