The day of rebirth and elopement: caught by the military officer husband

Lin Xiaoxue said: "What a coincidence, I just finished visiting a store with my franchisee and I didn't expect to run into you guys."

Rong Xingyan smiled gently, "Since it's such a coincidence, why don't we find a place to sit down? I just happen to have something I want to ask you."

Sister Rong immediately responded, "We are very busy people, can you please give us a favor?"

She teased, her tone revealing her closeness to Lin Xiaoxue.

After hearing what they said, Lin Xiaoxue also laughed: "Then please."

The three of them didn't walk far before they found a cafe decorated in a retro style on the corner of the street.

In the 1980s, drinking coffee was still a petty bourgeois thing.

They chose a seat by the window.

You can smell the rich and tempting aroma of coffee from the moment you enter the door.

After sitting down, Rong Xingyan started the topic: "I heard from my eldest sister that you opened a dessert shop franchise business in Kyoto and it was very successful. I came back this time because after market research, I found that capital turnover was difficult."

Sister Rong interrupted hastily, "I told you not to expand the venue so much! Remember why you came back."

She was worried that her brother's big appetite would ruin the business she had worked so hard to build.

Rong Xingyan responded calmly, "Who doesn't like to make money? But if you have to take too much risk, it's really unnecessary."

When he turned to Lin Xiaoxue, his eyes were filled with admiration. "Comparatively, I admire you more for being able to expand your business with the help of external forces. You already have several branches in Kyoto."

Lin Xiaoxue nodded: "Yes, I really don't plan to invest too much money.

A person's energy is always limited. No matter how capable I am, it is impossible for me to cover every part of the country by myself.

Therefore, we adopt the franchising method, starting from the surrounding cities and then slowly developing to other provinces.

Once you become famous, it won’t take a few years for your brand to spread all over the country.”

Rong Xingyan was shocked when he heard this: "All over the country? Is that really your plan?"

He was obviously shocked by Lin Xiaoxue's grand blueprint.

"That's right!" Lin Xiaoxue smiled slightly. "Although the franchise fee is not much for each store, it adds up. And it's collected once a year, which is like putting money in a bank and getting interest every year."

As they were talking, the waiter brought three cups of rich and aromatic coffee.

"Please enjoy your meal." The waiter stepped back politely.

Lin Xiaoxue smelled the rich and mellow aroma and thought that the coffee of this era was still authentic and the ingredients were genuine.

She raised the glass gracefully and took a sip.

The taste was bitter but had depth, but her expression did not change.

Rong Xingyan saw that Lin Xiaoxue's expression did not change after drinking the coffee, and wondered if the coffee had become sweeter.

He also picked up the cup and took a drink, and the bitterness went straight to the tip of his tongue.

Rong Xingyan couldn't help but frown. This was much more bitter than he had imagined.

Then he said to Lin Xiaoxue: "When you mentioned the franchise business to me before, I thought it was just empty talk, but I didn't expect you to have already started the actual operation."

Lin Xiaoxue put down the coffee cup in her hand. "Yeah, I think only by doing it yourself can you seize the opportunity. Waiting for others to take the lead is not my style."

Lin Xiaoxue could feel that the other party's business ambitions were no less than her own.

It’s just that the two people pursue completely different goals. What she wants is a win-win situation, which benefits both herself and others.

Rong Xingyan seems to be more inclined to become the unrivaled richest man in the local area.

"See, this is how I told you to operate it."

Lin Xiaoxue began to explain, "First, we have to register the brand 'Xinglong'. Then, we can provide franchisees with all-round support and services.

Including helping them find a fixed, low-cost, high-quality source of goods.”

Rong Xingyan used the spoon in his hand to stir the coffee cup in circles, elegantly and slowly.

"It does sound quite attractive." He smiled slightly, "Especially the part about sourcing and shipping goods."

Lin Xiaoxue nodded: "Yes, and through this source of goods, you can make extra money.

In the long run, it will not only help franchisees to grow steadily, but also promote the economic activities of related factories. As for opening a branch..."

She paused. "That's absolutely fine. You can open as many stores as you want, and promote the franchise model in the remaining cities. There won't be any conflicts."

Sister Rong, who was sitting next to them and listening intently, couldn't help but interrupt: "This is a really great idea, why didn't I think of it? Xiaoxue must be smart!"

When she looked at Lin Xiaoxue, her eyes were full of admiration.

Rong Xingyan continued to taste his coffee, "So..."

He paused and continued, "As long as we ensure a stable supply, reasonable prices and high quality, we will definitely be competitive in the market. Coupled with the appropriate marketing strategy and management system..."

"That's right!" Lin Xiaoxue agreed: "That's why we need to start preparing now. For example, formulate a detailed franchise policy, establish a complete supply chain system, etc."

Rong Xingyan's eyes flickered. "Tell me, once this model is launched, who can refuse it? Low risk and high profit, it is simply an entrepreneur's dream."

He tapped the table lightly, thought for a moment, and then said, "Can you elaborate on the specific process? Of course, I won't let you waste your words, and the consulting fee is indispensable."

Lin Xiaoxue waved her hand. "Why be so polite? We are partners after all! We should be treated this way."

She took out a document from her bag and handed it to him, "You can use this contract as a reference. I have written down the dessert shop model and the franchise process clearly."

Rong Xingyan, who took the documents, couldn't help but exclaimed: "You are simply my God of Wealth! I really need this information."

Lin Xiaoxue smiled and said, "Of course. If you become rich, won't my share also increase? We benefit from each other."

A shrewd look flashed in her eyes. Although the franchise had nothing to do with her, as long as it was a branch opened by Rong Xingyan, the benefits would be endless.

Having said that, Rong Xingyan's face showed deep thought.

“Actually, I have a plan… I plan to open a few branches of my own in several developed cities across the country.

After we become famous, we will consider recruiting franchisees. After all, we can’t rush at this stage.”

Lin Xiaoxue expressed her understanding and encouraged her by saying, "Absolutely! Luzhou is a very good starting point. It is also appropriate for big cities such as Kyoto and Guangdong Province to follow suit."

She added, “As long as the strategy is right, one successful case is enough to lead the entire brand forward.”

Rong Xingyan nodded: "Then do as you say! Luzhou will take the lead, and I will test the waters there. If the response is good, then quickly expand to other cities."

Lin Xiaoxue agreed: "This idea is feasible."
