Spend Money on Goddess, Use more! Gain more! Chapter 344 213: Confessions, Declarations, and Finally Embr

...

When Wu Wei drove to Jiyu Old Hot Pot Headquarters, the sky had completely darkened.

However, before reaching the entrance, he was stunned by the sight in front of him—a long line was waiting outside, and business seed even more booming than during the New Year's holiday!

This situation greatly exceeded his expectations.

After parking the car, Wu Wei walked into the shop, where the clamor and the spicy aroma rushed at him.

His eyes swept around and soon spotted Zhou Yuyan.

Today, she was wearing a snug manager's uniform and was slightly bending forward, patiently listening to inquiries from a table of young custors, wearing a professional yet approachable smile.

Wu Wei didn't approach imdiately, instead choosing to stand in place and observe.

He noticed that custors would occasionally whisper excitedly when Zhou Yuyan passed by, then gather the courage to stop her.

"Manager sister! We ca here after seeing the video!"

"Could we take a photo with you? You look even better in real life than in the video!"

"The hot pot tastes aweso! The manager is even more aweso!"

There were even bold young n blushing as they asked, "Do you have a boyfriend, miss? Can I add you on WeChat?"

Zhou Yuyan was clearly not quite accustod to this sudden "internet celebrity" treatnt, occasionally showing a hint of shyness and confusion, but quickly adjusted, striving to maintain a poised deanor.

For photo requests, as long as they didn't greatly interfere with work, she would try to accommodate them, showing a slightly bashful but sincere smile.

For overstepping questions, she would deftly divert with work-related topics.

Her figure moved busily through the steamy, bustling shop like a fresh yet capable flower, attracting many gazes.

Wu Wei took out his phone and clicked on Zhang Yunyao's shop-visiting video.

Indeed, the likes had soared to over 150,000 , and the comnts had surpassed the 10,000 mark.

No wonder the business was exploding.

He chuckled, choosing not to imdiately disturb the busy Zhou Yuyan, and instead, headed upstairs to the relatively quieter office.

He opened his computer and began handling so affairs, simultaneously doing so preliminary preparations and docunt organizing for getting Sun Yi into a retirent ho…

It wasn't until near eleven at night that the downstairs noise gradually subsided.

The office door was gently pushed open, and Zhou Yuyan walked in, exhaustion from her hectic day apparent on her face.

Seeing Wu Wei still there, she looked sowhat surprised, "Brother-in-law, you haven't left yet?"

Wu Wei closed the computer, stood up smiling, and handed her a cup of warm water already prepared on the table: "I saw you were busy running around, so I didn't want to disturb you. Tired? Have so water."

Zhou Yuyan took the cup, her fingertips accidentally brushing against Wu Wei's hand, trembling slightly, thanking him softly, and took small sips.

"It's indeed tiring, but also very satisfying."

Zhou Yuyan sat down on the chair next to him, her voice filled with a sense of achievent: "Business was great today, though the exact turnover hasn't been calculated yet. But I reckon... it might be even better than the peak on New Year's Day."

"That's good, the promotional impact is imdiate."

Wu Wei spoke, then asked: "By the way, have you opened the account I asked you to earlier?"

"It's been opened," Zhou Yuyan replied imdiately.

"Good."

Wu Wei nodded, then said: "Over the next couple of days, I'll transfer all the money for opening the chain into this account. It'll be 5 billion."

"Fi… five billion?!"

As Zhou Yuyan was drinking water, she suddenly choked upon hearing this, and widened her eyes, looking at Wu Wei in disbelief: "Opening 100 hotpot restaurants shouldn't need that much, right?"

"It actually doesn't need that much,"

Wu Wei's tone was calm: "But having more money prepared is never a bad thing. It gives room to handle unexpected situations or accelerate expansion."

Wu Wei actually thought even 5 billion was too little initially; in his plan, at least 20 to 30 billion would be transferred.

After all, whatever is sent later gets refunded entirely; who would dislike having less money?

But he was imdiately warned by the system, citing suspicious money laundering.

Since opening a hundred chain hotpot restaurants, including purchasing all locations and full-chain upstream and downstream integration, would roughly cost about 3 billion.

Even at the highest standard, placing all restaurants in first-tier cities, it wouldn't exceed 5 billion.

Thus, the system limited him to only transferring up to 5 billion.

And if not fully used, he couldn't transfer more.

Even so, Wu Wei was already very satisfied.

After all, 5 billion is dozens of tis more than his previous refund accumulations.

"Okay… okay."

Zhou Yuyan struggled to digest this astronomical figure, feeling the responsibility on her shoulders weighing more, but also driven by a surge of trust and motivation.

Wu Wei saw her expression, chuckled, and shifted the topic back to a lighter note: "I told you, with your looks, you'd definitely beco popular on cara, and now you really have."

Zhou Yuyan's cheeks flushed, sowhat embarrassed, as she bowed her head: "It's… it's not exactly popular, maybe just a temporary buzz from the video."

"This isn't popular? Don't be modest."

Wu Wei's tone beca serious: "However, being popular has its pros and cons. Over the next period, everything about you and the shop might be scrutinized under a magnifying glass, and managent must be stricter and more detailed. Service, hygiene, and food quality must not slacken, as the greater the traffic, if issues arise, the backlash could be severe!"

"Furthermore, your personal ti might also be tied down by popularity. If you feel like interacting with those who like you, go ahead. If not, don't carry psychological burdens; avoid them when necessary, rest when needed, and let the deputy manager step in at the shop. Don't wear yourself out."
