I Don’t Want To Be Popular

I don’t want to be popular. Chapter 591: Mysterious Pot Recipe·Unexpected True Love. "Your husband is probably extremely beautiful," Aunt Wang said.

"Hahahaha!" Zhang Xiangyun laughed happily.

Indeed, her skin has been in great condition recently, her body is comfortable, and she feels full of energy. Yesterday she went to climb Mount Laoshan, and it was effortless to reach the top in one go. It made a bunch of girls extremely jealous.

Zhang Xiangyun herself didn't know what was going on, and neither did her best friends, but Chen Chuan knew.

This is the effect of [Youth Halo·Energy Water], which restored Zhang Xiangyun's various functions to those 6 years ago.

As for why Lin Jianyu was here, she came with a gift. Although Chen Chuan helped her with her huge debt, she didn't know where Chen Chuan lived, so she came to his parents' hot pot restaurant.

Zhang Xiangyun asked Chen Chuan to sit aside and chat with the three aunts, mainly to show off his capable son.

"Jianyu, what happened to your finger? How did it get hurt? Did you use too much force?" Aunt Bai asked with a smile.

"No, I know the severity accurately. I was doing that wild yellow biting rain, and I got stabbed on the tailbone." Lin Juanyu said.

"Wild yellow spiny tailbone? That one is poisonous. Have you taken care of it and removed all the poisonous blood?" Several aunts asked with concern.

"Well, it's taken care of. Fortunately, it was taken care of in time. It was sucked out." Lin Jianyu said and glanced at Chen Chuan vaguely.

Chen Chuan also thought about the scene two nights ago at Lin Jianyu's house when she was pricked on her finger and he helped her suck out the poisonous blood.

Chen Chuan felt his leg under the table being touched.

Pretending to lower his head to peel nuts, he saw a pair of exquisite crystal high heels, Lin Jianyu's shoes.

But Lin Juanyu's face looked as usual, and he was chatting with his sisters with a smile.

"Jianyu, have you met Xiao Zhao and Chen Chuan? Have they called?" Aunt Bai asked.

"I think...it doesn't seem like the call is coming? Chen Chuan, what do you think?" Lin Jianyu raised his head and asked.

Chen Chuan caught her eye and said with a smile: "I think she's quite right. Your daughter Xiao Zhao is beautiful. The most important thing is that she is young and a great beauty. I like her."

"Oh? Oh..." Lin Jianyu lowered his head, "That's good. Then be nice to her..."

Zhang Xiangyun's eyes lit up after hearing this: "Chen Chuan, are you calling Lin Xiaozhao? Are you sure? Then during the last Chinese New Year, Qin Xiang..."

It can be seen that Zhang Xiangyun really likes Qin Xiang.

Chen Chuan smiled: "I just called Lin Xiaozhao for a casual call. We just met, so there hasn't been much progress."

"Oh, anyway, you can figure out the emotional matters yourself, we adults will not interfere." Zhang Xiangyun said, "And... Chen Yanyan, if you still contact her, say sorry to her for me. And please invite her to the store as a guest. , I’ll entertain her well.”

"Don't talk about me again then," Chen Chuan said.

"How could it be? I made a mistake last time, and I won't talk nonsense this time." Zhang Xiangyun said, "Anyway, you are not allowed to bully any of those good girls, or we will never end with you!"

"Take your orders." Chen Chuan stood up and said to his father who was mopping the floor, "Dad, let's go out for a walk."

"Oh, okay." Father Chen handed the mop to an employee, went inside, changed his clothes and came out.

…

Chen Chuan took Chen's father for a walk out of Wanda Golden Street.

On this golden street, there are three properties owned by Chen Chuan, a second-hand Internet cafe, a yoga studio, and the [Time Story] coffee shop.

[Story of Time] The coffee shop is opened from the [Gift Pack], which contains the [Looking Legion].

8 employees whose total appearance score exceeds 720 points will receive 2 million operating bonuses every month.

This coffee shop only sells super expensive Geisha coffee.

How expensive is it?

The most expensive cup of hand-brewed Gesha costs 515 yuan.

Chen Chuan took his father in.

Bought a drink for dad.

"Ding! [Love Feedback] is triggered. The host spends 515 yuan for the target Chen Wenkun and gets 4 times the rebate. 2060 yuan has been transferred to the host's bank card." The system prompts.

Sure enough, Dad's [Love Feedback] directly gives the highest 4 times rebate to his biological father.

"Dad, let me tell you a little secret." Chen Chuan whispered, "I opened this store."

"Ah? Your shop? Then...why don't they call you?" Father Chen was surprised.

"Because I am the boss behind the scenes, they don't know."

"Oh...is it profitable? The coffee you sell is too expensive...515 yuan a cup, but the business seems to be good?" Father Chen watched people coming and going.

Chen Chuan smiled, this is the [Appearance Legion], there are 8 female employees, all of them are beauties at the level of popular celebrities, with an average appearance score of above 92 points. With so many attractive girls gathered together, apart from here, there are only female employees. The group can see it!

So naturally a large number of otakus come to support every month, just like supporting AKB48.

Moreover, with a monthly operating income of 2 million yuan provided by the system, you will never lose money.

Chen Chuan took Chen's father out of the coffee shop and went to Wanda Shopping Mall.

This shopping mall is about to open. It is decorated inside and out, and businesses are almost there.

Chen Chuan went to the sales office and inquired about it. He found that there are still shops for sale, located in area B1 on the 4th floor, with a unit price of 40,000 yuan per square meter.

Father Chen was surprised and said: "Chen Chuan, are you looking at the location of the new hot pot restaurant? It's not here. It's not here. Although it's good here, it's too expensive. Even here, just rent it, don't buy it."

If there was no [return of love], Chen Chuan might consider renting it.

But with [Return of Love], buying a big store for dad and getting 4 times the rebate, why not do it.

"Dad, do you know Haidilao and Xiabuxiabu? What's the difference between the two?" Chen Chuan asked.

"Positioning the mid-to-high-end hot pot market and the mass hot pot market, from the store perspective, Haidilao has a large single store area, but there are few stores. On the contrary, Xiabu Xiabu has small stores, but many branches, including 200 in Beijing alone. The annual revenue of Haidilao is 16.5 billion yuan, which is only one-third of that of Haidilao. The table turnover rate of Haidilao is declining year by year, and the passenger flow density is also not good..." Chen's father said eloquently.

It can be seen that the old father has also done his homework about the hot pot industry.

Haidilao's single store area is indeed large, with an area of ​​more than 600 square meters.

The new hot pot restaurant opened for my parents in "Wanda Golden Street" has an area of ​​only 400 square meters. When I bought it, it was 25,000 per square meter, with a total price of 10 million.

Chen Chuan didn't buy it in front of his father, but just let him choose the address.

The two of them walked around here for a few times, then went to the commercial street downstairs, where they spent 2 million to order four suits for their father. Get 4 times the rebate of 8 million.

When Father Chen received the call, he returned to the hot pot restaurant and was busy.

Chen Chuan returned to Wanda's sales office and bought the 600-square-meter store.

The sales office gave me a discount, saving me the deed tax and other taxes, and I took the full amount, 24 million.

Because he had the guarantee of "return of love", Chen Chuan paid the money in full without hesitation.

"Ding, [Return of Love] is triggered. The host spent 24 million yuan for his biological father and received 4 times the critical rebate. 96 million yuan has been transferred to the host's bank card, please check!"

"Ding! [Return of Love] triggers a second critical hit and gets the [Mysterious Spicy Pot Bottom] recipe! It has been stored in the system space!"

That’s it!

96 million has arrived!

A biological father is a biological father, and this love cannot be discounted.

Moreover, it also triggered a second critical hit. This is the bonus of love!

With the [Mysterious Spicy Pot Base] formula provided by the system, the taste will definitely not be inferior to that of Sichuan pot, Chongqing pot, Haidilao, etc.

After buying the store, it’s time to decorate it. Chen Chuan contacted Xia Morning again.

It can be said that this designer's design concept has won Chen Chuan's heart. In addition, this girl also knows how to advance and retreat, and understands etiquette. They go back and forth, and the two of them get along quite well.

"Good morning, come to CBD Wanda and give you a good job." Chen Chuan dialed the number.

"Brother! Be there soon!"

Ten minutes later, Xia Good Morning came speeding by in a newly purchased Maserati.

"Your Majesty! My concubine is late!" Xia Zao'an came happily, and when he saw Chen Chuan, he made a gesture of kneeling down.

Chen Chuan smiled: "I'll give you a good job, just open your mouth and take it up."

"Yes." Xia Zao'an knelt down half-kneeling, with affectionate eyebrows, raising his head and opening his mouth.

With such a well-behaved personality, it's no wonder that Chen Chuan always looks for her to do work.

Chen Chuan stopped arguing with her. There were people coming and going. She was not ashamed, but she felt embarrassed.

Chen Chuan picked up Xia Morning, pointed to the 600-square-meter shop in front of him, and said, "Look, my beloved, this area belongs to me."

"Your Majesty, you have bought a new shop. What kind of business is this?" Xia Zaonan asked.

"My beloved concubine, guess what."

"Spicy bullfrog?"

"wrong."

"Spicy crayfish?"

"No, forget it, let's not talk about it. I'm going to build a new hotpot restaurant for my dad. His birthday is next month. This is my birthday gift to him. I'll give you a budget of 10 million, and you can build a 3S-level luxury store. , to be the best in Haiqin City, with annual turnover crushing Haidilao." Chen Chuan said, "Are you confident?"

"Yes, you trust me so much, I will definitely not let you down." Xia Zaonan said.

The annual turnover of Haidilao's single store is 40 million yuan. To crush it, many aspects are needed, but the first step is luxury decoration.

As for the second step, the recipe for [Mysterious Spicy Pot Base] is also available, and the hot pot tycoon is just around the corner.

Chen Chuan transferred 10 million to Xia Zaonan.

"Ding! [Return of Love] is triggered. The host spends 10 million decoration funds for his biological father and gets 4 times the rebate. 40 million has been transferred to the host's bank card, please check!"

The system prompts again.

Chen Chuan looked at Xia Good Morning and asked, "Good morning, what movie did we watch last time?"

Xia Zaonan smiled: "Your Majesty, you should call me Concubine Xia. Tell your Majesty, it's a 3D version of that futon, from eleven o'clock in the evening to four o'clock in the morning. It makes my back hurt to death."

That's alright, it should be her, she hasn't been switched.

After hearing this answer, Chen Chuan felt relieved. This saves you from always wondering whether there was a mistake that night, since the apartment layout is the same anyway.

The two of them were chatting while walking, talking about the decoration style of the hot pot restaurant, which should be in the national style and retro style, with as little luxury as possible.

For ordinary store decoration, 1,500 per square meter is considered mid-range.

This store is 600 square meters, 10 million yuan for decoration, 16,000 square meters per square meter, not much different.

After chatting until he became thirsty, Chen Chuan bought two cups of milk tea and gave one to Xia Morning.

"Ding! [Return of Love] is triggered. The host spends 38 yuan for Good Morning Xia and gets 4 times the critical rebate. 152 yuan has been transferred to the host's bank card, please check!"

system hint.

4 times……

Tsk…

He still thought that he and Xia Zaonan were just using each other? Or is it just a closer customer relationship? She likes her bulging pockets, and she likes her design style, work efficiency, and extremely good looks and figure.

Unexpectedly, the full 4 times rebate was triggered.

No wonder the girl calls herself Concubine Xia, and she actually fell in love during the co-authorship?

Xia Zao'an is a workaholic and took over Chen Chuan's job. She didn't want to go shopping until she was done.

Outside the mall, she gave Chen Chuan a kiss goodbye, then got into the Maserati and drove home to make design drawings.

Chen Chuan stood on the street with nowhere to go.

This [Love Feedback] item has currently repaid 96 million + 20 million, which is 116 million, and the upper limit has not been triggered yet. And there is no time limit mentioned, so there is no rush and you can take your time.

But the props must be used with caution. For example, they cannot be used by people of the same sex to buy things. What if there is a rebate? How embarrassing would that be?

It's approaching noon.

Chen Chuan was sitting in the car, planning to find a place to have lunch and see if there was any place to kill time in the afternoon.

While eating, check various WeChat groups to see which group has activities in the afternoon.

The online game group of [Duoqinglou] is discussing the party. The venue of the party has not been decided. There are many @s flowing, that is, Chen Chuan's, asking him to come out and take charge of the overall situation. Chen Chuan dives quietly. He doesn't want to worry about it. If After booking a meeting place, he would just take a business jet there, it could be anywhere.

[Tianlong Group] The management group is discussing work matters.

The university group was quiet.

In the high school group, Jia Qiang is sharing some videos of girls on Douyin.

[Group of international friends], because they all don’t understand the language, they can’t speak. In this group are the manager of the Bordeaux winery and Marion, the manager of the Andrea Mountains in West Siberia and Aurora, the manager of the Tianmu Forestry Farm and Sophia, the big cherry blossom girl from the neon island country, Wang Facai from Singapore, Seoul-based firm representative Lee Soo-hye, and [Seoul National University] assistant professor Kim Yun-soo.

In the [Douyu Anchor Group], there were seven or eight anchors who had tipped Super Rocket when he was watching the live broadcast, but none of them were familiar to him. Except for Murong Nazhi, Ah Leng and Jiang Yuner can occasionally chat. He still has 12.7 million shark fins in his Douyu account that he has never spent, because except for Murong, no one else may be selected into the "Good-looking Legion" even if they were put in his coffee shop.

[Mobile Game Boss] The group is also quiet. They are all money-making players who know each other from playing various mobile games. Only those with a recharge amount of more than 2 million can join the group. He didn't create this group, he was pulled into it while playing the mobile game Zhu Xian.

There are also Bentley car enthusiasts groups, McLaren car enthusiasts groups, Porsche car enthusiasts groups, and Aston Martin car enthusiasts groups, which are quite active, but Chen Chuan has never been involved in them, and he is not familiar with the group members. The only person I have spoken to a few times is in the BMW X7 enthusiast group.

Because he had an X7 that was sitting in the basement collecting dust and not being driven all year round. Once someone in the group asked how often he drives the car, and he said, it has been gathering dust and has never been driven. As a result, people criticized him and they didn't believe him, so he took a photo of the gray X7 and posted it to the group, attracting onlookers. Then we went back and forth and chatted a few more words.

There are also owners who are not familiar with them either.

But when it comes to the owner group, in the [Tianjiao Family] community, the sound of a piano occasionally drifts from one of the households upstairs, which makes Chen Chuan want to make a few comments. From his professional point of view, there are some holes between the notes. Requires some professional skills to fill in. If you have a chance to meet the piano player upstairs, you can give him a lesson. After all, they are all neighbors upstairs.

There are also some upstream and downstream industry groups that have been blocked.

Xun Xue was not in Haiqin City, and Xu Jinrong took on the position of personal secretary. Chen Chuan was invited to many dinner parties, but he always went to Xu Jinrong. Then Xu Jinrong was selecting some reports to Chen Chuan.

At 11 o'clock in the morning, Xu Jinrong called and reported everyone.

Chen Chuan is not interested in any of them. The main reason is that all the successful and respectable people who can get along now are middle-aged men with big belly in their forties or fifties. With those people, they can't pee in a pot.

After deciding where to have lunch, we went to the two-Michelin-starred restaurant in Tianhai InterContinental and told Xu Jingrong.

Xu Jinrong immediately arranged for the chef to order a banquet.

Start the car, and with the roar of the lake blue Lamborghini, head to the Tianhai Intercontinental Hotel.

When she got there, Xu Jinrong had already changed into casual clothes and greeted her in the parking area downstairs.

"You're the one who's going to pick me up? The ceremony isn't big enough." Chen Chuan got out of the car and joked.

Xu Jingrong smiled: "How dare you come here to let those little prodigal hoofs know that I have to receive you secretly so that I can say a few more words in front of you."

"Are you planning to keep it all to yourself?" Chen Chuan smiled and handed her the bag and coat.

She took the bag and coat and said with a smile: "I have this ambition, but whether I can swallow it or not, I haven't found the bottom yet. How will I know if I don't try?"

This Xu Jingrong is good in every aspect and has good looks, but she is slightly chubby. It can be said that she is the most beautiful person in the chubby world that Chen Chuan has ever seen.

I asked her to lose weight last time, and it was quite effective. She lost a little weight, otherwise she wouldn't dare to wear a hip-length short skirt like this one-piece.

"If you're fat, you're still fat, but if you wear it like this, it does look pretty good. The main reason is that the legs are long enough and the place is big enough." Chen Chuan said.

Xu Jinrong smiled shyly and said: "I told you, Mr. Chen, that there are many benefits to being a little fat, but you just don't believe it. It's just like a pony crossing a river. It depends on the depth of the water. You have to go and swim for a while. You know, the giraffe tells you that it reaches your ankles, and the little squirrel tells you that it reaches your head. What others say is not true. You have to try it yourself."

"Come on, I'm afraid of drowning. I haven't enjoyed enough of this wonderful life yet," Chen Chuan said.

"How can I bear to see you drowning? I will definitely support you at the critical moment." Xu Jingrong said.

The two of them said as they walked into the main entrance of the hotel.

The automatic sensor door opens.

"Hello, Director Chen!"

Six greeting ladies in cheongsam at the hotel entrance bowed together, listening to Mr. Chen and GM Xu Jinrong discussing topics such as "crossing the river" and "drowning". It felt very high-end and even they couldn't understand it. Maybe when they understand it, they will be promoted a step higher. At least they don't have to stand here to welcome guests. At least they can be a minor official.

Arrive at the restaurant on the fourth floor.

The head chef was waiting there himself, pulled out a chair for Chen Chuan, and sat down with him.

The Louis XIII that Chen Chuan often drinks is already on the table.
