In less than a week, the loan from China Construction Bank was approved.
With the money in hand, Qi Sheng could finally make his business empire take off.
Qi Sheng allocated four hundred million specifically for the Spicy King brand.
With a budget of 20 million per location, that was enough to open 20 new branches all at once.
Yuan Li had been working incredibly hard, dedicating herself to his business.
Qi Sheng spent an additional 95 million to upgrade Yuan Li from an Elite Level talent to Master Level.
With Master Level corporate management abilities, Yuan Li could now handle a company as large as Haidilao, which employed over a hundred thousand people, with no issue.
Qi Sheng specifically asked Lord Tong about the system’s fee deduction.
He received a definitive answer that there were no issues.
Only then did Qi Sheng relax and continue his spending spree.
When he was treating Zhou Yu at Xinrong Ji,
Qi Sheng had thought about opening a high-end private kitchen restaurant to entertain his friends.
But for a high-end restaurant with a per-person cost of over 1,000, just the site selection and renovation
would take at least half a year to complete.
If he had the means, Qi Sheng would have just acquired Xinrong Ji directly. Taking over something already established would be so much easier.
But Xinrong Ji’s market value was at least 3 billion, something he couldn’t even think about touching right now.
He couldn’t acquire Xinrong Ji now.
However, there was a local Chengdu catering company that had caught Qi Sheng’s eye.
Using the system’s forced acquisition authority, he spent 200 million to acquire it.
Zifei in Chengdu, and Yu Tu in Chongqing.
These two restaurants, which Qi Sheng had visited before, were both brands under this Zhuangyu Catering Company.
Of all the catering companies Qi Sheng could afford to acquire, Zhuangyu was the one he found most satisfactory.
Based in the Southwest, its main business was Sichuan cuisine.
Its slow development was also limited by insufficient financial strength and a lack of talent.
Coincidentally, the two things Qi Sheng didn’t lack were money and talent.
[Related equity changes are being processed. Please wait patiently...]
Seeing the system’s notification, Qi Sheng paid it no more mind.
With the system on the case, all he had to do was wait patiently.
Less than half an hour later, his phone suddenly rang.
The caller ID showed an unknown number.
Qi Sheng guessed the system had completed the process and answered the call.
"Chairman Qi, this is Jie Chao, the General Manager of Zhuangyu Catering. When would be a convenient time for you to inspect our company or one of our restaurants? I’d like to brief you on the company’s development."
Jie Chao’s tone on the other end of the line was extremely respectful, even a little cautious.
"How about this, I’ll be at Zifei Restaurant in an hour."
Qi Sheng didn’t have much going on recently and was eager to take over his new business.
"Okay, I’ll be waiting for your arrival then."
Jie Chao waited until the other end hung up before letting out a sigh of relief.
’What a mess.’
Jie Chao gave a wry smile and rubbed the bridge of his nose.
He recalled the phone call he had received just over ten minutes ago.
The big boss had actually sold the flourishing company.
And there hadn’t been the slightest hint of it beforehand.
As the general manager, he had panicked the moment he was notified.
