Sister Guo was surprised and overjoyed. She stared at Shirō Makino in a daze before bursting into tears.
Shirō Makino opened the car door and said to Guang Bro and the rest, "We plan to invest in Sister Guo's cooking and open a shop in the city center."
Guang Bro and the rest looked at Sister Guo enviously.
The benefits of knowing a big shot were too obvious!
Shirō Makino turned to Guang Bro and the rest. "Can you be a waiter, a security guard, or a cook?"
Before Guang Bro could say anything, the people behind him started talking at once.
"Yes, of course!"
"Of course, I know how to cook!"
"I can fight!"
"I can be a waiter."
"Does it cover our meals?"
Guang Bro turned around and glared at them. "Shut up! Isn't it embarrassing? "
He then turned back and grinned at Shirō Makino. "Do we get paid?"
Shirō Makino: "Yes, and we cover our meals."
The group cheered. Even Guang Bro kept rubbing his bald head, suppressing the sourness in his heart. His eyes were red.
Deep in his heart, he felt indignant.
Although he knew that he was a fake boss and that his underlings were exaggerating.
But in the north of the city, he was still someone.
Once he nodded, he might be Guang Bro the cashier, Guang Bro the security guard, or even the waiter …
But when he thought about the affluence and prosperity of the wealthy district, his heart was filled with hope.
If he could really open a shop there, it would be like a meat pie falling from the sky!
"Brother Bai, Miss Ji, I thank you on behalf of all my brothers. From now on, you are my bosses. As long as you say the word …"
"We'll chop whoever we say!" The hooligan beside him said loudly.
Guang Bro slapped the hooligan's head. "Chop my ass! We're all civilized people from now on! "
The youths couldn't help but laugh, indescribable excitement in their hearts.
After this incident, they seemed to have grown a lot and matured a lot. They understood many things that they didn't understand in the past.
Shirō Makino looked at the cheerful group of hooligans from the northern part of the city, and recalled something that the old man had once said: Survival is the most fundamental need of all living things.
Then, he recalled what Guang Ge had said earlier: Who would want to be a normal person if they could?
After that, the youths returned to the car for a meeting to discuss the specifics of the operation and the distribution of shares.
Shirō Makino had more than ninety million in cash.
Ji Chae Yi had everything with her money.
Ji Family's wealth was unimaginable.
This seventeen-year-old girl had a large number of properties under her name.
She randomly chose an apartment whose lease had expired not long ago and had yet to be renewed. She told the other party to move out as soon as possible.
The area was about 700 square meters, and it was located in the central square of Hundred Flowers City.
It was less than fifty meters away from the place where Xiao Bai sold his paintings on the street. He had even seen that shop when he passed by.
At that time, he never dreamed that he would one day become good friends with the owner of this shop.
Xiao Bai blushed a little when he thought about how he had confidently told her that he had money too.
Compared to her, he was really a hardcore pauper.
However, after some discussion, the majority shareholder position was given to him.
Although they were young, none of them were fools.
The "life-saving talisman" that Shirō Makino had given them was priceless!
What was a mere majority shareholder of a small shop?
Moreover, this rich girl had no interest in something as boring as being a boss at all.
She only wanted to help Sister Guo, and at the same time, help these people who had been "accidentally" injured by her last time.
In the end, the few of them decided that Ji Chae Yi would contribute 20% of the shares. Shirō Makino would contribute five million, 30%. Shan Gu would contribute two million, 10%. Liu Zhiyuan would contribute one million, 5%. Si Yin would contribute two million, 10%.
The five of them would contribute 75% of the shares. The remaining 25% would be given to Sister Guo, and 15% would be given to her.
Sister Guo would be the general manager of "Sister Guo's Rice Noodle Shop," and would also be responsible for the concoction of the soup.
Sister Guo was scared out of her wits and refused repeatedly.
To her, it was already a great fortune to have a place to stay. She, who had been born in hardship, never dared to hope for fortune to befall her.
She wasn't uncultured or ignorant. She didn't know how much the rent of the house that Chae Yi had contributed was, but with its location, it would definitely be a sky-high price.
She had seen how the remaining four people had contributed 10 million!
Even if she didn't include the house, 15% of 10 million would be 1.5 million!
The savings that she had accumulated over the years in the north of the city didn't even add up to that much. She was shocked.
She felt that she shouldn't have taken so many shares. She was also afraid that if the shop was too big, she wouldn't be able to manage it well.
Under Ji Chae Yi's hint, Liu Zhiyuan stood up and said that the shop could be opened because of Sister Guo's unique culinary skills.
There were many rice noodle shops in Hundred Flowers City, but this was the only shop that could attract a group of rich kids to the north of the city.
Liu Zhiyuan also said that this was only the first shop.
Her management skills were a little lacking now, but it didn't matter. She could slowly learn, and there would be people to help her so that she wouldn't feel burdened.
Even though Sister Guo didn't want to accept it, she understood that this group of teenagers really wanted to help her.
In the end, she nodded and agreed. She swore in her heart that she would work hard and manage this shop well. In the shortest time possible, she would earn back the money she had invested.
As for the remaining 10% of the shares, after Shirō Makino and the others discussed, they gave 5% to Brother Guang's team. The remaining 5% would be used as an option pool to reward outstanding employees in the future.
A shop that a group of teenagers had created randomly couldn't be said to have any brilliant planning. Ji Chae Yi even rejected her family's request to send a professional to guide her.
"I told my dad that it's just a small shop. What's the point of giving advice? He thought about it and felt that it was the case, "Ji Caiyi said in the small group of five.
Alright, tycoon girls have always been this willful.
However, she had a premonition that the business this time would definitely explode!
Brother Guang and the others assured her as well.
A group of gangsters from the north of the city, people who couldn't even enter the main city, now put on clean uniforms and changed out of their weird outfits. They really did look like the real deal.
Brother Guang was appointed as the deputy general manager to manage the shop's daily operations.
A shop that was more than 700 square meters wasn't difficult for Brother Guang, who used to rule over many streets.
However, his mood was completely different.
After designing the shop's image, the machine started construction. In just a few hours, a clean and tasteful shop appeared before everyone's eyes.
Everyone was very happy. Sister Guo personally made the first meal of rice noodles for them.
The fragrance that wafted out attracted the attention of many passersby. They stopped in their tracks, but when they were told that the shop wasn't open today, they could only leave in disappointment.
However, they successfully remembered this "smelled really good" shop.
Brother Guang and the others really had a big appetite. Sister Guo had been busy in the kitchen, and even with the help of a few people, she still managed to cook for more than two hours.
So much so that Shirō Makino was a little worried. If the business was just a little bit bad, would it be eaten up by these guys?
Reality proved that as long as there was a good location, as long as the food was delicious, and as long as the attitude was okay … business usually wouldn't be bad.
The next day, Sister Guo's rice noodles became popular.
Without any advertising, and without the support of Shirō Makino and Ji Chae Yi's influence, it became extremely popular!
Brother Guang's gang members were used to being gangsters. Due to their lack of experience, it was hard for them to completely change their habits. They almost got into a fight with the customers who were very anxious because they couldn't get a seat.
Under Brother Guang's strict reprimand, the troublemakers immediately apologized sincerely to the customers, and the atmosphere became gentler.
Those who had suffered would always remember the taste of sweetness immediately after tasting it, and would never forget it for the rest of their lives.
They were more afraid of being poor than anyone else.
Therefore, all of them tried their best to squeeze out a smile. Whether or not it was fake, they all looked very friendly.
Hearing this news, Shirō Makino and the others were all very happy.
Although they were happy that their business was booming and how much they earned, it wasn't the most important thing to these youths.
They just felt that they were very amazing and that they had a great sense of accomplishment.
Opening a shop wasn't that big of a deal, but through their hard work, they had changed the trajectory of a group of people's lives!
And thus, changed their fates!
This kind of feeling was really very comfortable.
But then came an unexpected piece of news that made the five people a little nervous.
The organizers of the Hundred Flowers Cup had decided that starting from the semifinals, they would imitate the high school and university leagues of the empire and change the simple group arena into a complex terrain competition!
This was definitely a big piece of news.
The new rules had come out of nowhere without any warning!
Before this, even the high school leagues on Planet Flying Immortal would only occasionally use this method to compete in the knockout stages.
The so-called complex terrain competition would abandon the traditional arena. Before the match began, the system would automatically choose a random match.
Whatever they chose would be what it was!
Before the results came out, no one knew what the arena would look like.
This way, the competition would be very interesting, but the difficulty would also increase by many times!
All sorts of unexpected and uncertain factors could affect the outcome of the match.
The semifinals would begin tomorrow. Their opponent was the civilian team that had previously eliminated Hundred Flowers Normal School.
That team had a total of four people, three men and one woman. Two shield bearers and two archers.
This team wasn't weak from the start. The two shield bearers were Level Six Soul Warriors, while the two archers were Level Six and Level Five.
Under normal circumstances, with this kind of composition, defeating Shirō Makino's team and entering the finals was only a possibility, but it would be very difficult.
But in the quarterfinals, this team's strength suddenly skyrocketed!
The two shield bearers and one archer rose to Level Seven, while the other archer rose to Level Six.
Spending money that far exceeded the tournament rewards to level up clearly meant that they were after something big. They definitely weren't doing it just to be bystanders. They were probably aiming for the championship.
Many people guessed that they had the backing of a financial group. It was very difficult for an individual to have this kind of wealth.
But because this team had always kept a low profile and it was their first time participating in the Hundred Flowers Cup, no one knew who was behind them.
For this team from First High, this was the toughest match they had faced since the start of the Hundred Flowers Cup.
The rules had changed, and their opponents had become stronger!
They couldn't retreat. No matter how strong their opponents were, they had to think of a way to defeat them.
The lot-drawing would take place tonight. Everyone was discussing how to deal with the various terrains in the group.
At this moment, something unexpected happened again — —
Something happened at the rice noodle shop.
