Victory in Life
Chapter 531
"I plan to persuade the boss of Hello Company to open a hotpot restaurant in our Faith Province!"
Darrel's eyes sparkled as he spoke.
"She had already agreed and promised to sponsor half of that money, but following her request, it was very expensive to invest in one Hello Hotpot restaurant and I didn't have that kind of money."
Darrel's eyes looked at Jasper as he asked sincerely, "Jasper, I came here today to ask for your help."
The elders had already stopped talking a while ago, as they were all listening to the conversation of Jasper and Darrel.
After Darrel spoke, both Honey and her husband looked at Jasper pleading.
Jasper tapped his finger at the pictures but did not speak.
To be honest, Darrel could have decided to open a normal hotpot restaurant or other normal business.
In that case, Jasper would give him an amount he never expected to be paid back and that was it, that was it,
However, Darrel was interested in Hello Hotpot and even planned to open a store in this Southeastern Province, now it was interesting.
"How about this? I'll give you two choices."
After a while, Jasper spoke.
"First option, as long as the money you need is under 200,000 dollars, I will lend you as much as you need, you will have to pay me back someday but I will not charge you with interest."
"Or second choice, I'll invest the money and you talk to Hello Company boss and tell him to go straight to do his business here in the Southeast Province, in terms of scale, he said, my only requirement is that there is at least one in every prefectural-level city, I will bear all the investment costs, and I can give you 10% of the shares."
Darrel then sank into his thoughts for a moment after Jasper mentioned his choice.
Jasper chuckled, his satisfaction towards Darrel increasing.
People who are more concerned with immediate profits will tend to choose the first option, however, it is 200,000 cash in whole.
However, while the second option only comes with 10% of all stocks, a deeper thought will make the person realize how much better this option is, he said, one restaurant in each prefecture-level city in the province.
On such a scale, 10% was far more valuable than 200,000.
Not to mention after the project is completed, Hello Hotpot will be a large chain of catering brands in the province, it is much more sophisticated than opening a small restaurant in Faith Province.
"A very wise choice." Jasper nodded. "Take the time to talk to Hello Hotpot bosses first, the only thing I contribute is the funds, and you have to do the rest yourself, prepare the whole proposal and submit it early next year."
"As long as I agree to it, then you'll get the funds as soon as possible."
Darrel flushed with excitement and nodded. "okay! Thank you, Jasper, I'll do my best."
Jasper patted Darrel on the shoulder and spoke, "You didn't do anything for me, you did it for yourself."
Just then, Honey asked with great difficulty, "How much does it cost to open so many restaurants, Jasper?"
Jasper thought about it and replied, "Including the City of Mauritius, the provincial capital, the seven prefectural-level cities of the Southeastern Province. a total of eight restaurants, then including construction costs and equipment costs, were, I'd say no less than a million per restaurant."
Thankfully it was 2000 when the cost of rent and labor was still cheap.
Had it been before she reincarnated, she would have needed at least five million per Hello Hotpot outlet.
