Chapter 511: Chapter 284: With a Cullinan, Life Is No Longer Hard (Part 3)

Soon, Qin Qingyi came out of the chairman’s office, smiling and nodding at Jie Chao.

"President Jie, you can go in now."

"Alright."

Jie Chao didn’t take her lightly and gave Qin Qingyi a polite nod.

Although Qin Qingyi’s position in the group was just that of a simple secretary, it all depended on who was backing her.

Even as a personal secretary, she was someone the general managers of the subsidiary companies, like himself, dared not offend.

The fear was simple: if she were to whisper something in the boss’s ear at night, their own positions might no longer be secure.

"Sit."

Qi Sheng was looking at a document. "Qingyi," he said without raising his head, "pour President Jie some tea."

Jie Chao didn’t dare disturb Qi Sheng, so he sat down obediently across the large executive desk.

He respectfully took the teacup with both hands and politely thanked Qin Qingyi. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

"You’re welcome. I’ll let you two talk."

Qin Qingyi smiled and left the office, having already mastered the duties of her role.

"Zhuangyu Catering is developing at quite a clip. Both the Zifei and Yu Tu chains have reached seven locations each. You deserve a lot of the credit."

Qi Sheng had been looking at Zhuangyu Catering’s revenue data. He looked up with a smile and praised Jie Chao.

"You give me too much credit. It’s all part of my job."

Jie Chao breathed a sigh of relief, glad that he wasn’t about to be reprimanded.

"However, this is still a bit too slow."

Qi Sheng tapped his fingers on the armrest of his executive chair.

"In early March, I’ll inject 200 million US Dollars into Zhuangyu Catering, and I will also provide you with all the necessary talent."

"When the time comes, I want you to open sixteen new branches all at once, bringing the total to thirty stores. You can handle that, right?"

"No problem. The investment costs for branches in second-tier cities aren’t too high. Factoring in renovations, equipment, rent deposits, and the operating budget, 30 million will be more than enough."

Hearing that the boss would provide the talent, Jie Chao patted his chest and gave a firm reply.

"In that case, opening the stores will only require 500 million. With the remaining 900 million, we’ll invest in four more organic farms."

"I want you to personally lead the site selection team. The goal is to meet the ingredient demands of all Zhuangyu Catering and Spicy King locations nationwide."

Qi Sheng had just seen in Zhuangyu Catering’s documents that they had invested in two more organic farms.

The first phase of land acquisition and construction had been completed, costing 100 million.

The investment budget for a single organic farm was about 150 million.

For seven organic farms, 900 million would be just about right.

For Spicy King’s massive chain of stores, seven organic farms were but a drop in the bucket.

But at least they’d be keeping some of the business in-house.

Once Spicy King’s stores broke 500 locations, the orders from Spicy King alone would be enough to support an entire ecosystem of supply chain companies.

"Understood. I’ll personally take charge of this matter and report back to you promptly as we make progress."

Jie Chao had been eager to expand the organic farms, but even the most capable housewife can’t cook a meal without rice.
