Chapter 149 - 149 A Million Is A Million!
149 A Million Is A Million!
“But we can also make a call and get them to send food to our doorstep,” a girl retorted.
“How naive.” Luo Feng shook his head in disdain. “This method is already outdated.”
How could he not have thought of this? Moreover, Luo Feng was very sure that there were definitely more than three order cards from nearby shops in the pockets of everyone present. He had also ordered from them, and more than once, he missed the explanations from his previous life.
“There are two advantages to ordering food on the webpage: being able to view directly and variety! Vendors can upload pictures of food on the Internet platform so that users can feel more carefree. On the other hand, there can only be one phone order. Every time you order food, do you take out your phone’s order card like playing poker and let everyone choose together?”
Everyone’s eyes lit up hearing Luo Feng’s explanation.
Luo Feng continued, “Everyone, think about it. Our website is not only near the school, but facing the entire country. It includes all the merchants and users in the country! This can change an industry!”
“I’ll join!” The bespectacled boy did everything in a hurry and immediately applied to partic.i.p.ate.
Xie Yan looked at his companions in a daze and did not say anything. After the second-hand website incident, his confidence had been severely thwarted. He did not know if he was still qualified to be with everyone.
He was abnormally conflicted.
“Xie Yan, what are you hesitating for?” The bespectacled boy walked out and grabbed Xie Yan’s shoulder. “We’ve worked hard together for half a year. Do you want to give up here? Isn’t our cooperation very pleasant? And very compatible> I don’t think there’s a team with more tactical understanding between them! I really! I really want to fight with everyone! Are you going to be a deserter again!”
The bespectacled boy could not help but choke up when he mentioned the emotional part.
He really cherished the time when he worked hard with everyone. He was happy even if he stayed up late to work. When the girls heard this, they also sobbed.
So everyone’s feelings were the same.
Xie Yan looked at the bespectacled boy, and his blank eyes were also wet.
In fact, Xie Yan invited twice as many people as now in the early stages of the business. However, a month or two later, many people who could not hold on left silently. Xie Yan had to find someone to fill the vacancy again.
In the end, only a dozen people were left in the office. Some of them had been there from the beginning, such as the bespectacled boys, and some had partic.i.p.ated halfway. They were all the people who had accompanied Xie Yan to the end.
Who liked to suffer? Those who could stay here relied on strong feelings.
Everyone’s suppressed emotions for many days finally could not hold back after hearing the bespectacled boy’s words.
Everyone had endured so many sleepless nights together, from the joy of having their first user to their recent worries. Everyone was the same worried and was trying their best to think of a way to save them.
He walked over step by step, leaving footprints in the same direction behind everyone.
“I…” Xie Yan’s eyes were filled with tears. “I’m unwilling too!”
His eyes were firm as he turned to look at Luo Feng. “Fellow cla.s.smate, you said that you want to invest in our company. I have a request.”
Luo Feng nodded solemnly. “Tell me!”
“I have 60% of the company’s shares. I can give you 51%, which I’m asking for 500,000 yuan, but I have a request. They can’t have any lesser shares.” Xie Yan wanted to compensate everyone and do what he could.
He thought that the majority should be enough for Luo Feng to be loyal to the company. Not only could he protect the interests of his other companions, but he could also find a reliable shareholder.
As for himself, he did not mind as long as the company was still around and he could start a business with his partners.
“No!” Luo Feng rejected decisively.
“Not even 500,000 yuan?” Xie Yan looked troubled. This was all he could offer.
Luo Feng was so anxious that he wanted to stomp his feet. “One million yuan! I’ll buy your shares for one million yuan! You can split the other 49% yourself. I won’t interfere.”
Can’t you have some confidence in yourself! Can’t you extort some money from me?!
This shouldn’t be considered a deliberate increase in price, right?
Luo Feng felt that Xie Yan’s company was worth a million yuan!
He was almost delayed by this stupid kid!
Everyone, who was already discouraged, was stunned when they heard Luo Feng’s words. Why did he increase the price in the opposite direction?
Everyone looked at each other again, wanting to see the answer from each other’s eyes—did they hear wrongly? However, the other party’s eyes told them that Luo Feng would really give them a million yuan!
“Yes! A million yuan!” Luo Feng would not give them any chance to bargain. “You might not understand why I came looking for you because you’re all talents in my eyes. Second-hand websites might be worthless, but I think you guys are worth a million. This is considered me taking advantage.”
“Everyone, work hard. If you do well, your salary will increase! Believe me, you’re definitely worth it!” Luo Feng hurriedly added, afraid that everyone would be humble.
Everyone’s blood boiled as they listened, and tears welled up in their eyes. Their shattered confidence was reconstructed again, and they were even more determined than before.
When Xie Yan saw Luo Feng’s high-spirited face, a sentence suddenly appeared in his mind. “A gentleman dies for his confidant.”
It was not because Luo Feng had taken out the money. His family could afford a million yuan. It was just that Luo Feng recognized his and his companions’ strength.
This made them happier than any infusion of funds.
When Xie Yan thought about how he could still be with his companions and continue to realize his dreams, the path ahead became much clearer.
He could not help but smile in relief.
It had to be said that after Luo Feng displayed his generosity and kindness, Xie Yan felt less afraid of him.
“There’s no time to lose. Let’s sign the contract.” Luo Feng could not wait to see if this reverse price increase would hold up.
“Okay, okay, okay! I’ll prepare it immediately!” The bespectacled boy ran into the office like the wind. Then, he quickly ran out and handed the still hot share transfer contract to Xie Yan.
If it was Ai Tingya, Luo Feng wished he could give her all his shares. However, he had intercepted Xie Yan’s company halfway through. Luo Feng acknowledged their ability, but he did not completely trust them.
There was still a long way to go. Everyone would slowly get used to it.
It was getting late after the two of them signed the agreement.
Luo Feng’s dormitory was not far from Xie Yan’s. When they returned to the dormitory together, they could discuss the plan of the takeaway website. Xie Yan told him his thoughts and Luo Feng gave him a few suggestions. He still had to slowly try the specific details and functions.
Xie Yan promised that the first version would be out in a month at the latest. At that time, he would let Luo Feng take a look.
The two of them chatted happily. Xie Yan wanted to talk for a while more even when they arrived at Luo Feng’s dormitory building.
Little did he know that two pairs of eyes were projecting down from the opposite dormitory—Ai Tingya and Barbara were lying on the balcony and silently observing the two of them.
