Early in the morning the next day, Wen Xinya received news that Ning Shuqian already ca to, and her head injury wasn’t serious.
On this day, she had an appointnt with Qiu Yifan, Li ngjie, and Yan Shaoqing at Lanxin Investnt Corporation. When she arrived, Qiu Yifan and Li ngjie were chatting, while Yan Shaoqing was looking at docunts. “We agreed to et at 9 A.M. and it’s only 8:40 A.M.—I thought I was already early enough, didn’t expect you guys to be even earlier than .”
“You’re a busy person, we don’t dare to make you wait and delay you,” said Li ngjie in a grumbling tone as she looked at Wen Xinya. As she was already very familiar with Wen Xinya, she spoke more casually.
Wen Xinya couldn’t help but laugh. The matters concerning Lanxin Corporation and the storefront were almost all handed over for Li ngjie to manage—it was no wonder she was full of resentnt. “My workload from studies has lightened a lot recently. Due to the short stay at Grampy’s place, my ti is more flexible. I’ll treat everyone to a sumptuous al at Ninth-Heaven tonight, what do you guys think?”
Wen Xinya’s stressful studies had been greatly relaxed due to Zhong Rufeng’s incisive and insightful notes.
Qiu Yifan laughed and said, “Now you’re acting like a boss. Otherwise, I thought you’re a bad boss who ill-treats her staff.”
Wen Xinya’s gaze went back and forth between Qiu Yifan and Li ngjie, and said in a teasing manner, “The great lawyer Qiu, are you standing up for Miss Li?”
Qiu Yifan instantly gave off a dry cough, held up the teacup in front of him, and drank tea.
Li ngjie stared at Wen Xinya and said, “You better prepare your wallet—tonight I’ll make sure you pay a large price.”
So, it was a one-sided intention of the male. Wen Xinya smiled and said, “Your re few mouths can’t make broke yet. Thus, everyone please feel free to order and eat your fill.”
Only then did Li ngjie’s resentnt disperse. She sized her up non-stop with her pair of keen eyes. “I heard from Lawyer Qiu that you’ve injured your head and was hospitalized for a few days. How is it now—hope you’re alright!”
Wen Xinya’s gaze instinctively looked over at Qiu Yifan.
Qiu Yifan hurriedly said, “I’ve also only heard Old Mr. Mo ntion yesterday. However, seeing that you’re in rather high spirits now, guess the injury wasn’t serious!”
Wen Xinya smiled and said, “I’m fine. You guys don’t have to worry!”
Li ngjie beca relieved. “A head injury can potentially be serious. For this period of ti, save on using your brain and continue to rest up. Just leave the company and storefront’s matters to —you don’t have to fret over them unnecessarily.”
Wen Xinya felt touched and said with a mild smile, “There’s already only so little that I can help with for the company and storefront. You’re really making feel a little ashad as the boss.”
Li ngjie couldn’t help but laugh. “You’re still young—of course you must focus on your health. At most, you can treat us to a few more als—that’ll make it worth it for us!”
Nodding, Qiu Yifan added, “Miss Li’s right.”
Wen Xinya also laughed uncontrollably. “You guys really want to make broke!”
Yan Shaoqing said, “That won’t do—if you’re broke, who’ll pay our salaries!”
Everyone laughed uncontrollably.
Li ngjie said, “I’ve already registered the company and also confird the location of the storefront—on Pearl Street, a street away from Floral Lingo Pavilion beauty salon, the Pearl Mall is not far ahead, and just diagonally across the street from Jiayuan Club. With Lawyer Qiu’s help, we secured it with seven million yuan—and spent an additional two hundred thousand yuan of compensation to breach the contract with the current tenant. The projection of our capital funds may be a little tight.”
“No issues about the capital. I’ll allocate another billion yuan to you.” Wen Xinya had previously already gone to the location picked by Li ngjie—honestly, the location was really not bad. A costics storefront was different from an investnt company—location was key. As she wanted to go for the high-end market, the location must be in a busy area, and must also be a place where the wealthy people gathered, in order to have an advantage.
Li ngjie handed a docunt file to Wen Xinya. “This is the storefront’s interior renovation design. I’ve asked a few reputable interior design companies to design a couple of different renovation styles based on various styles—you see which is more suitable.”
Wen Xinya received the docunt file and browsed through each of the renovation style floor plans in her hands—there was a luxurious and lavish one, a classy and comfortable one, a charming and elegant one, and a vintage one.
“I think the luxurious and lavish one is better. Many high-end branded shops like to decorate their storefronts luxuriously and lavishly, such a style has already beco a subconscious habit of many wealthy madams and ladies in the capital city when choosing the storefronts to visit.” Li ngjie expressed her own view pertinently.
After browsing the floor plans, Wen Xinya said plainly, “I’m not satisfied with all these floor plans. When it cos to opening a storefront, there has got to be a hype to attract custors—only sothing original and unexpected can attract the attention of consurs. With the intense competition in the market currently, being stuck in a rut and following the sa old rules is considered fatal for a business. It’s as if a piece of gold falling into a pot of gold pieces—in the eyes of everyone, this piece of gold is the sa as the other gold pieces, and naturally won’t be able to attract everyone’s attention. However, what if it was a piece of gemstone falling into a pot of gold pieces?”
Li ngjie was speechless. “What do you an?”
Wen Xinya said plainly, “I’m going to employ the imperial skincare secret hype. Thus, our storefront’s renovation design has to be based on the style of ancient imperial palaces.”
Presently, amongst the formulas in Ruo Ruo’s hands, there were indeed a few which were formulated based on an ancient imperial skincare book—she wasn’t really exaggerating.
Li ngjie quickly understood Wen Xinya’s intention. In ancient tis, such skincare secrets were only possessed by people with honorable statuses such as the queen, princesses, and concubines. By employing such a hype, she could imagine the kind of sensation it would cause amongst the wealthy circle in the capital city.
Wen Xinya continued, “In addition, I’ll get a few coaches who’re familiar with the ancient etiquette to train our staff. The store will also contain so beauty tips and tricks. From the inside out, the store will be fashioned and cultured as an ancient palace.”
“Your idea is great.” Li ngjie was already completely in awe of Wen Xinya. At all tis, this young girl was outstanding and her ideas and decisions always astonished everyone.
Such an act by her would feature the mysterious background of the costics storefront—after all, only an extraordinary person could fashion and culture an ancient palace shop like this. Such was human nature—the more mysterious sothing was, the more people gravitated towards it. In this way, consurs’ shopping psychology would be fulfilled. As long as the products were good, she could imagine that there would be no lack of custors at the storefront in the future.
“Your workload is already very heavy, I’ll take care of the storefront’s design! I’ll be responsible to look for a designer, the storefront’s decoration, display, etc.” Looking at the shadows beneath Li ngjie’s eyes, Wen Xinya felt a little sorry after all.
So of the rooms at the Ninth-Heaven were exactly styled in a vintage and ancient manner. Gu Junling should be a good resource person for this area.
“But your health...” Li ngjie was slightly hesitant.
Wen Xinya said helplessly, “It’s just a minor injury. I can still do work that doesn’t require brainpower!”
