Open An Internet Cafe
Of course, none of this had anything to do with Li Yizheng.
When Li Yizheng went backstage to check his balance, he was already stunned.
In just a short month, excluding the principal, he made a net profit of more than 1.5 million yuan.
This was simply unbelievable.
Li Yizheng was a little regretful. Why didn't he invest more money at that time?
But after thinking about it, he decided not to think about it. After all, he had earned quite a sum this month.
Moreover, if he had been so greedy back, it wouldn't have been good if it had caused the butterfly effect.
At this moment, the message notification belonging to Gu Shihui rang again.
A light rain and an umbrella: "That was close. I sold it for 326.5 US dollars. Have you transacted?"
A light rain and an umbrella: "It's still falling."
Messenger of justice: "I've already sold it."
He did not forget to add: "I sold it for 338 US dollars."
A light rain and an umbrella: "..."
Li Yizheng could already imagine how furious Gu Shihui was in front of her screen.
After all, at the time of buying, Gu Shihui already bought it at a more expensive price than Li Yizheng. Now her selling price was not as high as his, it would be surprising if she did not explode.
Thus, Gu Shihui sent an angry emoji.
A light rain and an umbrella: "It's really infuriating to compare people."
Messenger of justice: "It's alright."
Messenger of justice: "The big treat I promised you can be realized."
A light rain and an umbrella: "Oh yeah, then I must eat the best and the most expensive."
Messenger of justice: "Alright, alright, you will decide."
As he spoke, he sent Gu Shihui a few red packets.
Messenger of justice said, "This is to reward you."
Following that, the other party sent him several expressions that made him see stars.
A light rain and an umbrella: "Wa, Wa, Wa, Big brother."
A light rain and an umbrella: "Then I won't stand on ceremony."
Although she said she wouldn't stand on the ceremony, she only redeemed a few red packets.
Messenger of justice said, "Why didn't you redeem them all?"
A light rain and an umbrella: "I just redeem a few."
Messenger of justice said, "Why do you still want to save money for me now?"
A light rain and an umbrella: "That's not it. When have I ever saved money for you?"
A light rain and an umbrella: "It's just that we're family. Why are you treating me like a stranger?"
Messenger of justice: "Oh right, I want to open an internet cafe. I want to go out and take a look at the shop recently. Do you have time?"
A light rain and an umbrella: "Internet cafe?"
Messenger of justice: "Yes, why don't you come out this afternoon? I'll tell you in detail."
Messenger of justice: "I'll treat you to a meal."
A light rain and an umbrella: "Okay, then let's meet at the hotpot restaurant near my house. It just so happens that I haven't eaten hotpot in a long time."
Thus, the two quickly packed up and headed to the agreed place to meet.
In the hotpot restaurant, the two of them ordered a twin mandarin duck pot.
It was because Gu Shihui loved to eat spicy food while Li Yizheng couldn't eat very spicy food.
The red oil pot was rumbling and rolling. Gu Shihui kept putting food into it, looking very happy.
Of course, she didn't forget to put some food into the clear soup pot.
After putting down her chopsticks, she looked at Li Yizheng.
"Tell me, why did you suddenly think of opening an internet cafe?"
"Now that bitcoin is profitable, I have the capital. I can't just sit around and do nothing," Li Yizheng said.
Gu Shihui nodded seriously. "Indeed, bitcoin will rise around mid-June, so we can buy it in early June."
"And by then, our college entrance exam will be over."
"There's still some time before we can buy bitcoin next time. We should do something during this period."
Li Yizheng asked, "How did you know that it would continue to rise in June?"
Gu Shihui took a sip of water from her cup and said without blushing, "Of course, it was Sister Lu who told me."
"Sister Lu? Is she your friend's sister?" Li Yizheng asked.
Gu Shihui nodded and changed the topic. "Why did you choose to open an internet cafe?"
"Because most of the information now comes from the Internet. Although mobile phones can also access the internet, it's not as convenient as computers."
"And now, poor families won't choose to buy computers at all."
"And the Internet cafe has a high amount of freedom."
"Going by these reasons, plus those who want to get information and have nowhere to go, and for those who want to play games, I provide them with the location and equipment. I believe that there will be a lot of people who will patronize it."
Gu Shihui nodded, agreeing with his idea.
After all, in the next few years, the internet cafe was indeed very popular and it was also very profitable.
"Okay, then let's go check out the shop after dinner and pick out the equipment." Gu Shihui said after dipping a piece of tripe.
Li Yizheng added some dishes for her and nodded. "Okay, we'll go after dinner."
"But do you know the configuration of the computer?" Gu Shihui blurted out the query in her heart.
Li Yizheng was silent. To be honest, he didn't understand.
Gu Shihui understood when she saw him like this.
Thus, she added some food to him and said, "Eat. I'll ask Sister Lu later. She seems to understand it quite well."
Li Yizheng was puzzled. Why was her friend's sister like her own sister and could understand her so well?
Could it be that the sister of her so-called friend was herself?
Li Yizheng instantly shocked himself when this thought popped out.
And at this moment, he completely didn't notice that the dish that Gu Shihui gave him was taken from the spicy pot.
He straight away ate it all in one bite.
But in the next second, Li Yizheng's face was red from choking and he kept patting his chest. "Cough cough cough cough cough, water," he said
Gu Shihui hurriedly handed him the water.
He drank a big mouthful before he recovered slightly.
Gu Shihui looked at him apologetically. "Sorry, I forgot."
She stuck out her tongue.
After this episode, Li Yizheng's suspicions were cut off.
They quickly finished the hotpot and were ready to check out the shop.
The two walked around and finally located the shop on the side of an intersection.
It was a residential building and there were three high schools just a street away.
So there was almost no need to worry about the source of customers.
Another reason why he was interested in this store was that it was at least 150 square meters, it was big enough,
Moreover, it was a two storey building with separate floors upstairs and downstairs.
Li Yizheng planned to turn the upper floor into a private room, and the price could be set a little higher so that it could be provided to customers who wanted a quiet environment.
However, the rent was not cheap either. It was 12,000 yuan a month.
After the two sides of negotiating, the final price was 10,000 yuan a month.
Li Yizheng paid the rent for half a year straightforwardly.
Both sides also signed the contract.
The shop was taken care of and the next step was the equipment.
"Did Sister Lu say what configuration is needed?" Li Yizheng asked.
