Even without Huo Yingying coming over to create buzz, this coffee shop would still be very popular. When Huo Yingying saw more and more people arriving, she quickly left.
When getting into the car, Ye Qiu drove away from there, first taking them back to the villa.
As for the endorsent for the ga company, Ye Qiu had already called Li Shen about it. Huo Yingying had agreed, and a press conference could be held at a hotel or directly at Jin University.
Ye Qiu wouldn’t interfere in those matters as the most crucial step had already been taken care of.
Upon returning to the villa, Ye Qiu planned to return to the Jin University Campus.
Back at the boys’ dormitory at Jin University, Ye Qiu first went to attend a class, and when the class was over, he headed toward the first dining hall.
As soon as he arrived, he spotted Liu Lingxiu and the other two girls.
Liu Lingxiu knew Ye Qiu had gone to Southern Yunnan and was aware that he had returned to Jin University, but Ye Qiu hadn’t gone to her yet.
After sitting down, Ye Qiu directly handed the al cards to Chen ng and Li Wen.
When the two girls went to get food, Liu Lingxiu asked, "When did you get back?"
"Just Wednesday."
When Chen ng and the two girls returned with the food, it seed everyone at Jin University knew about this bustling new high-end coffee shop, and they were offering a 90% discount now.
Of course, Liu Lingxiu heard it was Ye Qiu’s classmates who opened it.
"Lingshow, why don’t we check out the coffee shop after class?" Chen ng asked her.
"There are many people today. Maybe another day!" Today’s the opening day, it’s located in a comrcial center, a hub for white-collar workers. Plus, with Huo Yingying promoting it and the coffee and desserts being quite good, it’s bound to be very busy today.
So now, even abroad, people would probably have to queue up, and both floors would be full, so they might as well package their orders to take elsewhere.
Hearing Ye Qiu suggest that, Chen ng didn’t insist further.
After lunch, when the two went back to class, Ye Qiu also returned to the classroom.
After two classes, when Ye Qiu went to pick up Liu Lingxiu, she heard that the female celebrity was still at his house.
Liu Lingxiu had t Huo Yingying once before.
Now, when Ye Qiu returned to the villa with Liu Lingxiu, getting out of the car, they indeed saw Huo Yingying.
Huo Yingying had thought Ye Qiu would return alone but didn’t expect him to bring a young woman, and she heard this was Ye Qiu’s girlfriend.
Liu Lingxiu was simply beautiful and looked pure, although her attire might not be as impressive as the others, at a glance, she was very likable.
Upon entering with Liu Lingxiu, Xiaomai and Liu Lingxiu were already quite familiar with each other.
Seeing Ye Qiu return, Xiaomai asked, "Ye Qiu, are we having dinner at ho tonight?"
"Let’s eat at ho and prepare more delicious dishes."
Ye Qiu headed upstairs, not bothering with whatever the ladies were chatting about downstairs.
Upstairs, he turned on the computer and played the Gun Battle ga. Unexpectedly, the number of active players had exceeded a million, and the number of paying players was steadily increasing. This clearly showed that Li Shen and those guys had good foresight in choosing to distribute this ga.
After playing for over an hour, Ye Qiu’s phone rang. It was Luo Yang on the line, sounding very excited: "Brother Qiu, today’s revenue just exceeded one million."
Even with the 90% discount today, it surpassed a million, and it wasn’t even 6 PM yet, which was why Luo Yang was so excited.
Of course, this included those desserts and snacks being sold together.
The staff were so busy they couldn’t keep up since it was so crowded that most had to order to go. An individual casually buying sothing could easily spend hundreds, so exceeding 300,000 Huaxia Yuan was quite normal.
"Isn’t this normal? What’s there to be excited about?"
"Brother Qiu, wouldn’t the revenue easily exceed a million once the prices return to normal?"
Although the coffee beans weren’t cheap, most were just diluted with water, so the profit margin was still very high. Even today, the losses wouldn’t be significant, so the more they sold, the more excited Luo Yang beca.
"Since it just started, you should close by 11 PM at the latest and get so rest."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Qiu didn’t think much of it, assuming the situation at Ning Yun’s end was similar.
Of course, Ye Qiu also knew it might only be like this just after opening. If it could stabilize at a daily revenue of around 500,000 at the mature stage, that’d be great. After various expenses, they could still make about 250,000, and together both locations could earn at least 15 million a month.
That would still be with only two locations; the more franchises opened, the more inco there would be, much like Starbucks.
Starbucks was so formidable because it was everywhere around the globe.
When Liu Lingxiu called to invite Ye Qiu down for dinner, Ye Weidong and Ye Xue hadn’t returned yet as it was especially busy at the Imperial Cuisine Restaurant on this Friday.
Currently, it was just Ye Qiu, Xiaomai, Liu Lingxiu, Huo Yingying, and her manager Li Fanghua having dinner together.
For so reason, Ye Qiu felt like Huo Yingying was constantly eyeing Liu Lingxiu, making Liu Lingxiu slightly uncomfortable about why this female celebrity was looking at her like that.
After dinner, Liu Lingxiu planned to return to her residential area.
Ye Qiu first took her to the small supermarket. Upon arrival, aside from the store manager and a cashier, it was only Liu Daqing’s couple occasionally checking in. Now with three branches, the couple no longer needed to oversee everything.
Seeing Liu Daqing there, Ye Qiu chatted with him for a bit before heading back.
Back at the villa, Huo Yingying saw him return and asked, "Did your girlfriend leave?"
"What? Do you have an issue with her?"
"No, a girl like Miss Liu is beloved by all n." Huo Yingying said.
"Heh, she’s way better than you." Ye Qiu replied coldly.
"You..."
Ye Qiu couldn’t care less whether Huo Yingying was furious or whatever. Going upstairs, he played on the computer for a while, then showered, and continued cultivation.
Last night, he was up late cultivating when he was interrupted by Huo Yingying.
Now, Ye Qiu resud cultivating, hoping to make another breakthrough in the next few days.
However, at midnight, Luo Yang called again to report on the business status of both coffee shops: their combined revenue had exceeded one million, making them the hottest cafes in Jinling.
Now, Luo Yang and Ning Yun were too excited to sleep even after holding a eting with the staff. They returned to Zhou Shaohui’s barbecue stall at Jin University to eat and wanted to invite Ye Qiu to join them for drinks.
"I’ll pass on the drinks; you guys go ahead. I’m going to sleep first."
