Chapter 46: Preparing for the Unexpected

  Lunch was settled in the school cafeteria. Although it couldn't compare with restaurants outside, it was already quite good in Mo Shao Kun's opinion.

  After eating and drinking enough, Mo Shaokun and others returned to the dormitory, while Yin Fei and Wei Qianqian went out of school, saying they wanted to buy some daily necessities.

  Wei Qianqian had repeatedly invited Mo Shaokun to go with her, but he refused. He didn't need to buy anything, so why bother going? Moreover, he really disliked shopping, especially when accompanied by a girl, which was simply torture.

  "It's all over, it's completely over." Chen Hai cried with a gloomy face, constantly scolding himself in his heart for being so cheap yesterday. Is this good now? Not even officially started classes yet and already got a zero from the teacher, how are we going to get through the rest of the days?

  "Maybe Teacher Liu didn't recognize us? Her expression when she saw us just now was normal too." Xu Jie comforted himself.

  Chen Hai curled his lip and said, "The more it's like this, the more serious the problem is! If she really catches us and scolds us for a while, that would be fine. But who knows, maybe in her heart, she's already thinking of ways to deal with us."

  "What's to be done? Why don't we go and get her to admit her mistake?"

  "Alright, now going to admit mistakes is just hitting the muzzle."

  "Damn it! This won't work and that won't work either, so what do you suggest we do?"

  “……”

  Looking at the two brothers with a bitter and helpless expression, Mo Shao couldn't help but laugh. Is this what they mean by "you reap what you sow"?

  Lying in the dormitory for a while was really boring, so Mo Shaokun simply said something to his brothers and went home directly.

  I called Qin Quan and she arrived at the small courtyard in less than half an hour.

  Looking at Qin Xuan's slightly haggard complexion, Mo Shaokun couldn't help but feel a little heartache. It seemed that these days were really hard on his sister. Building a large supermarket from scratch wasn't an easy task, although he, as a reborn person, was there to provide strategies, the actual execution still fell squarely on Qin Xuan's shoulders.

  "Sister, pay attention to rest and don't exhaust yourself." Mo Shaokun poured a cup of water for Qin Xuan in a gentle voice.

  Qin Xuan took over the water cup and drank two mouthfuls: "It's nothing, when I first started my business, it was even harder than this."

  Before Mo Shao could speak, she continued asking: "By the way, how did you come back? School should have started classes already, right?"

  "No, tomorrow I'll be starting military training and I'm afraid once it starts I won't have time for this, so there are some things I should let you know about first."

  "Oh? Anything else?"

  Mo Shaokun said, "In a while, let's go to the securities company and transfer the stocks under my name to your account. I've written a schedule for you, follow it and sell all the stocks in batches."

  Qin Xuan took over the notebook and looked at it, then nodded and said, "Hmm, what else?"

  "There's also the matter of registering the company, you find someone capable and trustworthy to register it. You can give him a portion of the company shares, but no more than ten percent!" Mo Shaokun said seriously to Qin Xuan.

  It's not that he's stingy, it's just that the 10% stake doesn't seem like much now, but as the company develops in the future, the value of this 10% stake is hard to predict.

  "This is no problem, I have already thought of a candidate, but there's no need to give him any shares."

  Mo Shaokun shook his head and said, "You don't understand what I mean. When I asked you to find someone to register the company, it's not just about letting him put up an empty name, but to let him participate in the daily management and operation of the company. After all, I have to go to school, if everything has to be done by you, that would be too tiring."

  Qin Xuan's eyes were slightly moved, was her brother feeling heartache for her?

  She nodded and said: "Okay, then I'll take a look. If it's like that, this person must have some business ability, or else I won't feel at ease handing the company over to him to manage."

  "Uh, one more thing you have to take care of right away."

  "You said."

  "In Anping and several other districts, as well as Kyoto and Haicheng, look for suitable houses, once found, immediately take them down as a reserve for our supermarket expansion."

  Qin Xuan stared blankly at Mo Shaokun, and after a while, she asked suspiciously: "Do you have to be so exaggerated? The first supermarket hasn't even opened yet, and you're already thinking about expanding? And also going to Kyoto and Haicheng?"

  "Sister, never underestimate the energy of our people! Everyone wants to eat cake, and once our supermarket is on fire, it will be too late to prepare. If others imitate our model at that time, it won't be a good thing for us. So we must strike our brand in the first place, before others have time to react!" Mo Shaokun looked at Qin Xuan seriously.

  Qin Xuan slightly furrowed her brow, thought for a moment and said: "What you say makes sense, but are you so sure our supermarket will be a hit? What if, I mean what if our supermarket doesn't achieve the expected effect, then all those resources we've stockpiled would be a waste."

  "Believe me, the potential of supermarkets is huge, as long as we work hard and do it with heart, we will definitely succeed."

  Qin Chen saw her brother's persistence, and she couldn't say anything else. She nodded and smiled bitterly: "Okay, since I've already boarded your pirate ship, I can only go with the flow. However, Shao Kun, have you thought about how much money this will take? According to your plan, even if we just hoard supermarket land, it'll cost a fortune. We don't have any follow-up funding to utilize these resources, which means we'll be wasting our rent."

  Lowering her head in thought, Qin Xuan continued: "I now have less than 30 million yuan in liquid funds on hand, the rest are all fixed assets."

  Mo Shaokun nodded after calculating in his heart: "Enough! You and I now have a total of over 40 million yuan, which is enough to cover the costs of three supermarkets. As long as our supermarket can achieve the expected effect after opening, we can use the existing supermarket as collateral to borrow from the bank."

  Before getting to know Qin Xuan, Mo Shaokun's plan was to first make some money by speculating in stocks, then open a supermarket and use the profits as collateral for loans to prepare new supermarkets, thus rolling up like a snowball. But now with Qin Xuan on board, everything will go much more smoothly, and the expansion of the supermarket will be even more thorough.

  If Mo Shaokun had only relied on his confidence and seized the initiative from the market to gain a share, he might have occupied a considerable market share if he was lucky. Now, he has even greater ambitions: he wants not only to be the first supermarket in China but also to become the largest chain supermarket in China!

  And supermarkets are just one of them in his already planned business blueprint!

  "By the way, how's the preparation on the staff side going?" Mo Shaokun asked again.

  "Since we posted the recruitment ad, many people have come to interview. After a while, when the imported equipment arrives, I plan to arrange for them to learn how to operate those devices first. As for other things, they can only be accumulated slowly after the supermarket opens, after all, no one has experience in this aspect now."

  Mo Shaokun nodded, it could only be this way. The first person to eat a crab would always pay the price.
