Chapter 465: Four hundred and sixty-five, the flower is like perfume_1

"Honey, why does this flower smell so amazing, where is it from?"

Ji Pianran was truly conquered by the fresh flowers.

Bags and fresh flowers indeed make it impossible for a woman to resist.

Ji Pianran held onto the fresh flowers without letting go, as if she had completely fallen into their thrall.

"Do you think it’s not bad?" Boss Gu asked her.

"It’s really nice; after smelling it, I feel like I’m about to become a flower myself. If I wore this flower, I could probably use it directly as perfume."

Ji Pianran’s high praise for the flower gave Boss Gu his own ideas.

It made Boss Gu even more certain that he could definitely open a flower shop.

The money that a flower shop could make was not any less than other industries.

"Daddy, Tangtang also wants flowers." At this moment, Tangtang tugged at Boss Gu’s sleeve, cooing at him.

Hearing that she wanted flowers too, Boss Gu couldn’t help but smile.

"Alright, Daddy will get you flowers tomorrow. What kind of flowers do you want?" Boss Gu asked her.

"Tangtang wants trumpet flowers; I saw them in the tree today." Tangtang’s little head spun around, and finally, she blurted out "trumpet flowers."

"Okay, Daddy will get them for you tomorrow." Boss Gu patted her head.

"Husband, you still haven’t told me, where exactly is this flower from?" Ji Pianran was very curious at this moment.

However, Boss Gu just kept silent and didn’t say anything, which frustrated Ji Pianran.

She grew even more curious about what exactly this thing was.

"Wait a little while and you’ll find out where this flower comes from." Boss Gu played coy, not telling her the truth yet.

After hearing this, Ji Pianran could only sigh in resignation, looking forward to it in her heart.

That night, Boss Gu was pondering over the flower business.

The key to the flowers was packaging, which was also the only cost.

For him, with the uniqueness of Spiritual Spring, the cost of seeds was negligible.

As for the wrapping paper, even buying a few tons wouldn’t cost much.

After waking up the next day and sending Tangtang off to school, he hurried to the market to look for a manufacturer that could produce wrapping paper.

In the whole of Chuan City, there was not a single flower shop right now, or rather, not that there weren’t any flower shops, but they all sold potted fresh flowers, not the kind of flower shop Boss Gu was about to open.

So Boss Gu searched for a long, long time. He didn’t find any manufacturers specializing in wrapping paper for fresh flowers, but he did find some that made products very similar to flower wrapping paper.

He ordered a thousand sheets in one go.

This so-called flower paper could be made of cloth, gauze, plastic or whatever.

After all, Boss Gu had countless bouquet designs in his mind, just taking one or two out would be enough.

After ordering these items, Boss Gu went to the flower and bird market to buy various kinds of fresh flower seeds.

Tangtang mentioned she wanted trumpet flower seeds, and Boss Gu also bought some of those.

The rest were all roses, lilies, jasmine, and other such varieties that were easier to sell.

Just the roses were divided into three kinds: the very common red roses, the affectionate pink roses, and the refreshing white roses.

Of course, there was another type of rose, which would more accurately be called an ancient rose.

However, it looked very much like the rose and would be known as the species called purple roses in the future.

Just for these roses, Boss Gu procured so many.

After buying so many seeds, the next step for Boss Gu was to find a storefront in Chuan City.

After all, a flower shop has to be in a good location.

He searched for a long time and finally rented a storefront near the business street.

The size of the storefront was quite large, around one hundred and fifty square meters, more than enough to sell the flowers.

He spent the whole day busying himself with these matters, and by the time he had finished, it was already past five o’clock in the evening.

It was then that Ji Pianran suddenly remembered he hadn’t paid Old Zhang last night.

He had completely forgotten about it yesterday.

He hurried to his car and drove to the entrance of the internet cafe.

One strange phenomenon about the internet cafe was that, even though it had been open for three days, the crowd outside the cafe didn’t seem to lessen but rather increased.

When Ji Pianran saw this scene, he couldn’t help but extend his expectations.

He felt that three months was probably too short a time, and the outrageous profit of the internet cafe could last for at least four months.

After four months, once the second internet cafe in Chuan City appeared, his own would start to wane.

Of course, even if it faded, it didn’t mean it wouldn’t be profitable anymore, by the fourth month, all costs would have been fully recovered, and from then on, every day’s income, minus the employees’ costs, would be pure profit.

Ji Pianran believed this wouldn’t be a difficult task.

Ji Pianran parked his car on the roadside and then got out to greet Old Zhang.

"Sorry about that, I got tied up with something last night and forgot about the cafe," Ji Pianran said to Old Zhang.

Upon seeing Ji Pianran, Old Zhang quickly stood up from where he was sitting on the ground.

"Boss Gu, you shouldn’t say that. I only deal with trivial matters here. You have important things to take care of, so please don’t mind me.

You don’t need to settle the account every day, anytime is fine, whenever you have time."

Old Zhang didn’t take Ji Pianran’s apology to heart.

He was very self-aware and clear about many things.

He knew that it was not Ji Pianran who needed him, but that he needed Ji Pianran.

So, if Ji Pianran had his own matters to attend to, Old Zhang thought it was perfectly normal.

He could also guess that Ji Pianran definitely had more than one business in Chuan City.

For someone like Ji Pianran, making money seemed effortless. While Old Zhang envied him, he wasn’t selfish enough to expect Ji Pianran to come over to settle the accounts every day.

Ji Pianran walked to the counter and checked the accounts.

In the full forty-eight hours, machine number twenty was off for only fifteen minutes in total.

One of those hours was booked by someone for a set period.

That is to say, 2,880 yuan minus thirty-five yuan.

The total came to 2,845 yuan.

Ji Pianran took this stack of money and handed it to Old Zhang.

Old Zhang, looking at the substantial amount of money, was filled with mixed emotions.

In these few days, he was about to earn back all his costs.

The speed of earning back the investment was much higher than he had imagined.

"Thank you, Boss Gu," he said respectfully to Ji Pianran.

Without Ji Pianran, he wouldn’t have had such an opportunity, and he was clear about their respective roles.

"Hurry back and have dinner with your wife," said Ji Pianran to Old Zhang.

After saying this, he re-entered the internet cafe and said to the waitstaff and the network managers, "If you’re thirsty, feel free to grab a drink from the fridge, and if you’re hungry, snack on whatever you like."

Upon hearing his words, their faces immediately showed delight.

Ji Pianran didn’t pay them any more attention. He was just worried that they wouldn’t have enough to eat or drink at the internet cafe, which could lead to health issues—that would be a real problem!
