"When we opened the first store, we agreed to be partners together."
"She provided most of the start-up capital, and I invested all my savings, and also took on all the work in the store."
"The store was not big at the time, and there was no money to hire employees, so apart from making desserts, I did everything else myself."
"We agreed at the time that she would be responsible for paying most of the money, and I would be responsible for the operation of the store, and we would share the profits in half."
At this time, Lin Feng suddenly said: "Your agreement at the time should have been just a verbal agreement, and there was no contract signed, right?"
Chen Lin'er found that Lin Feng had almost guessed what she was saying before she finished speaking.
She nodded and said, "Yes, but now I regret not signing the contract."
"I am a person who loves desserts very much, and I also like to explore new tricks."
"So in addition to the desserts I learned when I was an apprentice, I also developed some desserts of my own."
"Maybe it's because I work hard enough. Under my management, the business of the store has gradually improved, and it has many repeat customers and word of mouth."
"I also hired a few employees, and I was responsible for desserts."
"Later, I made a little money, and I used the money to open a branch."
"After several years of development, Sweetcake has branches in many places in China. "
"My life is getting better and better, but I am always very grateful to Xu Nanyue. It was the hundreds of thousands of dollars she invested at the beginning that gave me the opportunity to start."
"Although she has never been to the store and has never participated in the operation of the store, I still transfer 50% of the money earned every month to her according to the original agreement."
"But yesterday... I received a lawyer's letter."
"Xu Nanyue wants to snatch Sweetcake from me."
Lin Feng instantly understood what happened to Chen Lin'er.
He asked, "Let me ask, did Xu Nanyan show the court the proof of your investment when you opened the store?"
"Because Xu Nanyan invested most of the funds at that time, and you only accounted for a small part."
"So now she insists that she invested the most and is the largest shareholder of Sweetcake, and Sweetcake belongs to her?"
Chen Lin'er nodded, "Yes, and I have consulted a lawyer yesterday."
"The lawyer told me that although it was agreed with Xu Nanyan at the time that she was responsible for investing most of the funds and I was responsible for managing the store, we were partners with half of the shares."
"But we didn't sign a contract, so the verbal agreement at the time was not established."
"In the absence of any valid contract, the court can only exchange shares according to our investment ratio."
"But! I didn't have much money at the time, and I could invest all my savings, which only accounted for a few percent of the shares."
"So, if calculated according to the investment ratio, then S Sweetcake will be awarded to Xu Nanyan!"
"And I am not a shareholder of Sweetcake, but a manager hired by Xu Nanyan!"
"I am so unwilling. Why did I become a manager?"
"Xu Nanyan did nothing except the initial capital!"
"I have run Sweetcake to such a big size little by little, and it has become the top dessert shop in China."
"And the person I think of as my nobleman, my best friend, wants to take what I have now from me!"
"Isn't she satisfied with the 50% profit I give her every month?"
"The hundreds of thousands she invested at the beginning have now brought her hundreds of times the return, and she is still not satisfied?"
"I really can't figure out why she did this. We are obviously best friends!"
"Even a few days before I received the lawyer's letter, we were still happily shopping together!"
Lin Feng's eyes flashed with hesitation, but he finally said what was in his heart.
"Because human nature is so greedy."
"Before, your store was not big, so Xu Nanyan felt that she could not afford such a small profit."
"But now that Sweetcake has grown to this scale, her inner desire has naturally grown bigger and bigger."
"It is a great temptation for her to take advantage of the loopholes in the law and monopolize so many stores by herself."
"After all, it is better to have 50% of the profit than to use 100%100% profit, this is totally different concept. "
"So she made this choice."
"It is also possible that when you first opened the store, she already had the idea of monopolizing the store by herself."
"Otherwise, why could she easily produce the evidence of how much you invested several years ago?"
Chen Lin'er couldn't help but cover her mouth and said in disbelief: "This, impossible!"
But soon her expression dimmed and said: "But now these are not important."
"Anyway, after a while, Sweetcake will no longer belong to me."
Lin Feng looked at Chen Lin'er's haggard look and couldn't help but comfort her: "Actually, I'm not very good at comforting people."
"But I think, with your current skills, it's only a matter of time for you to open a new store and open the new store to the same scale as the current one, right?"
Chen Lin'er smiled bitterly: "But I have been running Sweetcake for so many years and spent all my energy on it. ”
“You can say that all my efforts in the past few years have been put into Sweetcake.”
“To me, Sweetcake is like my child.”
“If it is really taken away by someone else, I will be very sad.”
She forced a smile and said, “But you are right, I should cheer up again. After I am done with this period of discomfort, I will adjust my state!”
Chen Lin’er seemed to want to say something else, but Lin Feng interrupted her.
“Stop, stop, stop.”
“Who told you that Sweetcake must be handed over to someone else?”
Chen Lin’er was stunned. “Isn’t that what the lawyer I consulted before told me?”
“He said that with the evidence in Xu Nanyue’s hands now, it is basically impossible for me to win.”
“Even if I hire the best lawyer, it is impossible.”
“So my lawyer suggested that I settle with Xu Nanyue privately. "
"Let Xu Nanyan pay me part of the fee as my reward for running Sweetcake for so many years, and I must give Sweetcake to her."
"This result is the best for me now."
