Chapter 609 - 217 The Women are Shocked: Li Yuan is Truly Ruthlessly Extravagant_4
"What? Did I hear that right? Ten milk tea shops? Not just one?" Ding Shanshan’s eyes widened, her jaw dropping as she doubted her own ears.
Li Yuan nodded. "Yes, we’re investing in ten shops for the first batch. We’ll see how they perform after they’re operational and then gradually expand, aiming to establish a nationally renowned milk tea brand."
Seeing Li Yuan confirm it himself, Ding Shanshan and Xu Tingrou were both utterly astonished.
"Damn, Li Yuan, you’re insanely rich! Starting with ten milk tea shops right off the bat... that’s just unreal!"
Ding Shanshan giggled. "Is this your future betrothal gift for Tingyue?"
Zhong Tingyue’s face flushed red. She gazed lovingly at Li Yuan, her heart pounding wildly. According to what Li Yuan had told her before, this milk tea brand was indeed being established for her, so calling it a "betrothal gift" was quite fitting.
Ding Shanshan noticed Zhong Tingyue’s shy expression and gave a knowing look, marveling at the revelation. "No wonder I saw Tingyue looking up information about milk tea online a few days ago. When I asked her about it, she was all secretive and wouldn’t say a thing."
She giggled again. "When your milk tea shops open, I’ll definitely be there to support the business."
"Li Yuan, Tingyue, when you go to sign the contracts and look at the renovations, can you take us along?" Xu Tingrou asked.
Li Yuan smiled. "Sure! There’s a location in the Longyu Building that I plan to make our flagship store."
The milk tea brand he wanted to establish was not some simple campus-side model. It was a complete operation with its own production line, R&D department, and logistics. Only with this foundation could the brand grow large and strong enough to eventually go public.
It was less a milk tea shop and more a chain restaurant company, similar to KFC or McDonald’s. His goal was to make "Tea Color Moonlight" the benchmark of the milk tea industry. Once brand recognition was established, future development would be easy.
The ten stores in Modu were just the beginning; many more company-owned stores and franchises would follow.
"Everything is ready over there. Let’s go sign the contracts now," Zhong Tingyue said, smiling with a growing sense of anticipation.
Li Yuan drove the three girls to the real estate company. From a distance, they could see the manager, Wang Jun, waiting eagerly for them at the entrance, dressed in a suit and tie.
When Li Yuan’s car pulled up, he hurried over to greet them.
"Director Li, everything is ready. Please, follow me."
Li Yuan took Zhong Tingyue’s hand, smiling as they entered the real estate company once again. Since arriving in Modu in mid-August, he had purchased seven houses and an entire office floor from this powerful firm, spending between ten and twenty million yuan. In this day and age, that made him a truly significant client.
"Director Li, ladies, this way to the VIP room, please."
The VIP room was spacious, furnished with platters of exquisite imported fruits. Freshly poured tea and coffee filled the air with an inviting aroma.
"Director Li, here are the contracts our company has drafted. There are ten contracts in total for the ten storefronts, with a combined value of 10 million yuan..."
Li Yuan sat composedly in the main seat, sipping his tea with a smile as he listened to Wang Jun detail the contracts. Zhong Tingyue, beside him, also maintained a dignified and graceful appearance, calmly savoring her coffee.
Only Ding Shanshan and Xu Tingrou, the two freshmen, sat rigidly with stunned expressions as they listened as the man detailed the contracts. When they heard the total amount was 10 million yuan, they both couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
The two exchanged a glance, their eyes conveying the exact same thought: Li Yuan is just inhumanly extravagant!
