Chapter 735: Seven hundred thirty The third task

"Please increase the daily revenue of all business entities under the host’s name to 200,000 yuan,"

"Completion rewards will be issued."

The system’s prompting sound emerged in Gu Chen’s mind.

When Gu Chen heard this third task, he was utterly caught off guard.

He hadn’t expected the system to force him to increase his daily income.

This left him somewhat unable to understand why the system would do this.

Does it mean his current daily income isn’t enough?

Clueless, yet he still gave it careful thought.

Reaching a daily revenue of two hundred thousand yuan isn’t a small number.

It’s roughly around 15,000 yuan for the two restaurants he currently owns.

The situation with the flower shop is about the same, at around 4,000 yuan per day.

The café is doing a bit better, standing firm at a fixed 15,000 yuan daily.

The main event, however, is the internet café, which now fares much worse than before but can barely maintain a daily income of about 20,000 yuan.

And his small liquor company can create a daily income of about 60,000 yuan.

What remains is just the bar.

After stabilizing, the bar earns at least 60,000 yuan each day.

Meaning, according to the system’s requirements, there’s still a shortfall of nearly 30,000 yuan to meet such a target.

That really put Gu Chen in a difficult position.

Thirty thousand may not seem like a lot, but it’s a standard unreachable for most in their lifetime.

However, for Gu Chen, it’s not impossible to study and figure out.

After all, it’s quite easy for him to make more money with his current situation.

At worst, he would just need to venture into some more industries, where he could make a fortune.

Of course, this is just based on his own inner judgment.

Whether he can make money and how much he can make remains an uncertain factor.

He definitely can’t open any more restaurants; besides, even if he did, it wouldn’t meet such high requirements.

So Gu Chen thought the real way to make money would be to either open a bar in another city or a branch of the liquor company.

Looking at it this way, he felt that it seemed he may need to move up his plans to go to Haicheng.

In the past few days, the only remaining sales manager in Haicheng has almost completed the necessary procedures.

In fact, the liquor company could move there at any time, but the only thing left to do was to hire some more employees for the liquor company.

Naturally, this wasn’t a challenge, and Gu Chen had him get started with the arrangements.

Now it was urgent to find a location for the liquor company and then to rent the space.

Then, to hire employees, and afterwards, to promote the business extensively in Haicheng.

After going through this whole process, Gu Chen felt there shouldn’t be any major problems.

Just as Gu Chen was planning to investigate these matters thoroughly,

An unexpected call suddenly rang through the house.

Gu Chen thought another issue had cropped up.

He was very reluctant, even carrying a hint of resignation, as if accustomed to such interruptions.

However, the voice on the other end of the call this time took Gu Chen by surprise.

He thought someone was looking for him again or that someone was in trouble.

To his surprise, it was Ji Pianran’s voice coming through.

"Honey, I have a class reunion to attend today.

I might be back late, so could you pick up Tiantian?"

She said this to Gu Chen on the phone.

Gu Chen was somewhat surprised after hearing this; he hadn’t expected her to attend a class reunion that day.

"Alright, I got it," Gu Chen said over the phone.

An inexplicable gathering left Gu Chen somewhat puzzled.

However, he didn’t say much about it, for in his memory, Ji Pianran seemed to have rarely gone to parties, so he thought it might be good for her to take this opportunity to relax.

He hurried downstairs to drive and pick up Sugar.

After all, picking up Sugar was the priority.

Otherwise, if the little girl didn’t see her parents,

she would surely be anxious and angry when she got back.

Gu Chen felt an urgent need to pick up Sugar then.

When he got Sugar into the car,

she was pouting with annoyance.

"Did Mom and Dad forget about me today?"

She asked Gu Chen seriously.

It felt as if she was questioning him, demanding an explanation.

Gu Chen was at a loss for words for a moment, not even knowing how to respond to her question.

Because it seemed no matter how he answered, he would appear guilty.

"Mom has a class reunion today, so she didn’t have time to pick you up.

I came over as soon as I got the call," Gu Chen explained to her.

But now, the little girl seemed impervious to reason and wouldn’t listen to any explanations.

"No, no, Daddy has to take me out for dinner,"

she demanded of Gu Chen.

She was insisting that Gu Chen treat her to a meal.

Hearing this, Gu Chen sighed helplessly and then asked, "What would you like to eat? Should Daddy cook for you, or do you want to go out?"

Gu Chen was quite indulgent with Sugar and always listened to her.

"Daddy, let’s go out. I want barbecue,"

Sugar suddenly had a craving for barbecue.

Gu Chen had no objections and directly took her to a barbecue restaurant outside.

It was a local barbecue spot that he hadn’t heard much about, so he didn’t know which one had more character.

At that moment, Gu Chen just drove around the city casually.

Soon, Gu Chen found a barbecue restaurant that seemed pretty large compared to others.

Most other barbecue places looked just like roadside stalls,

but this one was different, fashioned like a grand hotel—this seafood barbecue spanned three floors.

Moreover, there were many cars parked outside the restaurant.

It was evident that the restaurant had good hygiene and environment since he could see several luxury cars.

Of course, there was another possibility, that the restaurant was very expensive.

Such pricey places often attract the moderately wealthy.

Gu Chen then casually parked the car by the side of the road.

He picked up Sugar and walked into the barbecue restaurant.

Upon entering, they were greeted by a very enthusiastic waiter.

"Good evening, sir, welcome to Tiantian Seafood Barbecue."

The waiter said with a smile, squatting down while speaking,

and also addressed Sugar with great politeness: "Good evening, little one."

"Good evening, aunty, do you have any tables available?" Sugar asked directly.

"Tell aunty how many people you have," the waiter said.

"It’s just me and Daddy, the two of us."

"Oh, this is your daddy? So young, huh?"
