Chapter 612 Yan Bugui Wants to Join



Chapter 612 Yan Bugui Wants to Join

So the brothers hit it off again and started to make arrangements immediately. Lin Geng began to look for storefronts everywhere in the city. This time he found a courtyard house facing the street that was left by the old people. It had two entrances, front and back, four storefronts facing the street, and two courtyards in the back, as well as a dozen rooms, which could be used as private rooms.

Just when Lin Geng found a house and started negotiating the price, wanting to buy the courtyard house, Yan Bugui came to Lin Geng.

When Lin Geng returned home at night, Yan Bugui brought two bottles of Fenjiu and knocked on Lin Geng's door with a smirk.

Lin Geng saw that it was Yan Bugui, so he let him in and sat him down. Then he handed Yan Bugui a cigarette and asked with a smile, "Teacher Yan, what's the matter? Why did you come to see me with wine?"

Yan Bugui smiled awkwardly and rubbed his hands, then said to Lin Geng, "Xiao Lin! I heard that you were planning to open another hot pot restaurant. I saw that Pinwei Xuan, which you, Sha Zhu, and Damao opened, was doing good business. I was thinking if you were to open a hot pot restaurant, could you take me with you? I have some spare money saved here, but it's useless to keep it in my hands. Can you let me take a share like Sha Zhu and Damao did?"

Lin Geng was stunned for a moment, but soon laughed. Yan Bugui saw that the Pinweixuan business opened by him, Xu Damao and Sha Zhu was booming, so he became jealous and wanted to catch his express train to wealth.

Lin Geng lit a cigarette, thought for a moment, and said, "Okay! These are all small matters! I just don't know how much money you plan to invest?"

When Yan Bugui heard that Lin Geng agreed, he immediately showed an ecstatic look on his face. He asked Lin Geng in disbelief, "Really? Are you kidding me?"

Lin Geng smiled and shook his head, "How big of a deal is this? There is no end to making money. Since there is a way to make money, it's okay to take you with me. What's more, with our current relationship, it's only right for me to give you a hand!"

Don't be suspicious, just tell me how much money you want to invest in the company."

After getting Lin Geng's confirmation again, Yan Bugui finally felt relieved, so he quickly took out a few stacks of big unity from his pocket and placed them in front of Lin Geng, saying with a wry smile: "Here, all the money I have saved in my life is here! A total of 4,700 yuan! Count it and see how many shares I can get?"

Lin Geng was also shocked when he saw the stacks of big unity notes in front of him. He knew that the old man had saved a lot of money, but he didn't expect that he had saved so much money. Four thousand seven hundred yuan was actually a considerable sum of money in that era, and it could even buy a small courtyard house in a remote area.

Yan Bugui has been complaining about his poverty all his life. People used to say that it was not easy for him to support a large family on his own. However, in the original drama, this old man was the first person in the courtyard to sell a bicycle, although it was second-hand. He was also the first person to buy an electric fan and the first person to buy a TV.

So others don’t know whether Yan Bugui is rich or not, but Lin Geng is sure that Yan Bugui definitely has a lot of savings. However, he didn’t expect that this old guy actually saved 4,700 yuan. This is all his life savings. It seems that he really wants to go all in and gamble with him.

So Lin Geng looked at the money on the table, thought for a while, and said to Yan Bugui seriously: "Teacher Yan, thank you for your trust in me! But some ugly words still need to be said in front!

Doing business is risky, and not everything you do is guaranteed to make a profit. I am grateful that you trust me, but I cannot guarantee that I will make a lot of money no matter what business I do!

You have to think it through in advance. If you make less money or lose money, you can't blame me. If you are not mentally prepared, then I advise you to take the money back now, so as to avoid losing money and risking your life with me!"

After hearing what Lin Geng said, Yan Bugui's face froze, and he couldn't help but show a conflicted look on his face, and his hand involuntarily reached for the stacks of big unity notes on the table.

But soon Yan Bugui's hand stopped again, and the expression on his face kept changing. After hesitating for a long time, he suddenly seemed to have made a decision. He made up his mind and pushed several stacks of big unity on the table in front of Lin Geng.

"Okay! I understand! It's settled. I'll give you the money, just use it as you see fit. As for whether you make a profit or a loss, I'll take it! I believe in your ability, and you will definitely not let me lose money!"

Lin Geng had been observing the changes in Yan Bugui's facial expressions. He could tell that in this short moment, Yan Bugui had gone through a fierce struggle in his heart. But in the end, his desire to get rich and his trust in Lin Geng overcame his fear and cowardice, and he made up his mind to take a chance with him.

Since Yan Bugui had made his choice, Lin Geng stopped teasing him, because he knew very well that opening a hot pot restaurant at this time would definitely make money. At present, the reform and opening up has just begun, and the private economy has just started. The market is still a seller's market. Under the long-term planned economy, the people have not experienced many new things, so their desire to consume is still quite high.

Although the consumption capacity of ordinary people is not high now, the price of goods is low! This is the best time to complete primitive accumulation.

What's more, he knew in later generations how popular Sichuan hotpot was among the common people. At present, there were no such private hotpot restaurants in the old city. As long as he made the hotpot base well and the taste was acceptable to the common people, it would be hard for it not to be popular.

So Lin Geng accepted the more than 4,000 yuan sent by Yan Bugui. After thinking about it, he suggested that Yan Jiecheng's wife work as an accountant in the hot pot restaurant. This way, Yan Bugui would feel more at ease.

When Yan Bugui heard that Lin Geng also agreed to let his daughter-in-law work as an accountant in the hot pot restaurant, he was overjoyed. This way he didn't have to worry about Lin Geng cheating him on the accounts. Although he had always believed in Lin Geng's character and knew that he would not lie to him, now that Lin Geng let his daughter-in-law work as an accountant, he didn't have to worry even more.

So Yan Bugui returned home happily and informed Yan Jiecheng and his wife of the news, asking his wife to quickly find Lin Geng to report and learn how to be an accountant first. In the future, it would be easier for their Yan family to work under Lin.

At this time, Yu Li saw that Pinweixuan opened by Lin Geng was so profitable, so she became a little restless. After thinking about it, she told Lin Geng that she didn't want to work in the supply and marketing cooperative anymore, and wanted to sell her work position to help Lin Geng.

After hearing this, Lin Geng agreed without hesitation. He knew very well that with the development of the private economy, the supply and marketing cooperatives would soon be out of business and the work in the supply and marketing cooperatives would become useless. Instead of waiting for the supply and marketing cooperatives to collapse everywhere, it would be better to resign from the job in the supply and marketing cooperative now, sell his workstation and get some money back.
