Chapter 397: Quite Adaptable
After the meal, they continued to communicate with the restaurant owner to learn more details and conditions. Although Su Ming was still a little hesitant, he also understood that this was a decision that needed to be carefully considered. Finally, they said goodbye to the restaurant owner and decided to go home and discuss it with their parents.
In the afternoon, they came to a supermarket that was about to be transferred in the city center. The supermarket was located in a corner of a busy commercial district. Although the store was small, the business was very active. Su Ming and Su Ting walked into the supermarket and were attracted by the neat shelves and rich variety of goods.
"Brother, although this supermarket is small, the items are neatly arranged and it seems to be doing good business. We can consider including this as an option." Su Ting suggested as she picked up a bottle of juice and looked at it.
After Su Ming and Su Ting continued to inspect several restaurants and supermarkets that were to be transferred, they decided to select the two restaurants with the most potential as their targets. They returned home and reported their observations and ideas in detail to their parents Su Qiang and Wang Lin.
Su Ming said frankly, "Mom and Dad, we went to see several restaurants and a supermarket that are for sale today. Ting'er and I think two restaurants are more suitable. One has a good location but requires more investment, and the other is small but has stable business. The supermarket is also an alternative option. It seems to be well managed and has good business. We want to hear your suggestions and decide what to do next."
After listening to Su Ming's report, Su Qiang thought seriously for a moment. He knew that the children's decision was not made lightly, but they must also take into account the overall situation and future development of the family. "Ming'er, Ting'er, your idea is very good. However, running a business is a matter of risks and opportunities. We need to comprehensively consider the stability of the business, the future development potential, and the economic pressure we can bear."
Wang Lin interrupted, "Ming'er, we don't object to you trying to run a business, we just hope that you can be fully prepared. After all, this is related to the future of the entire family. The smaller restaurant you went to see, if managed properly, may be a good start. However, we have to think carefully about how to operate it."
Su Ming and Su Ting listened to their parents' advice and became more determined. They decided to choose the small but stable restaurant as their first choice. As for the big family, Su Ming also needed to think about how to arrange the management and operation. They decided to go to the restaurant again tomorrow to discuss the transfer in detail with the owner and learn as many details as possible.
The next morning, Su Ming and Su Ting came to the selected restaurant. Huaihua followed them, knowing what their brothers and sisters' decision meant to the family. Huaihua was a smart girl. Although she was young, she was grateful for the current situation of her family and the efforts of her brothers and sisters, and she decided to do her best to support them.
Su Ming knocked on the door of the restaurant, and the owner, Mr. Chen, came out to greet him personally. Mr. Chen was a middle-aged man, gentle and experienced. He took Su Ming and his party to visit the entire restaurant and introduced the equipment and business conditions in detail. Su Ming and Su Ting took notes while listening, concentrating on recording every detail and question raised.
"Mr. Chen, we are very satisfied with the situation of this restaurant. However, we still need to further discuss the details and transfer conditions. If possible, can we make an appointment to discuss it in detail?" Su Ming asked politely. He hoped to understand all the circumstances as soon as possible and make a wise decision.
Mr. Chen nodded and said with a sincere smile, "Of course. I can arrange any time that is convenient for you. Although this restaurant is not big, it has a long history and its business is relatively stable. I also hope to find a successor who is willing to run the business. If you are interested, I will fully support your development."
Su Ming and Su Ting exchanged glances and made up their minds. They agreed on a time for the follow-up discussion and expressed their sincere gratitude to Mr. Chen. After leaving the restaurant, Huaihua looked at the serious expressions of her brothers and sisters and sighed inwardly.
"Brothers and sisters, I know you are working hard for the family. I will study hard and help you." Huaihua said softly. Although she is young, she has realized the importance of family and the efforts of her brothers and sisters.
Su Ming and Su Ting felt warm in their hearts after hearing Huaihua's words. They knew that family unity and support were priceless, and no matter how many difficulties they would encounter in the future, they would face them together and work together.
After returning home, Su Ming and Su Ting discussed the next plan in detail with their parents. They decided to conduct a detailed analysis of the funds and business plan first, and then further discuss the transfer details with Mr. Chen. Su Qiang and Wang Lin did their best to support the children's decision. They understood the children's intentions and sense of responsibility.
A few days later, Su Ming and Su Ting had in-depth negotiations with Mr. Chen and finally reached a basic agreement on the transfer. Next, they will begin to prepare for taking over the restaurant, including capital preparation, staff arrangements, and marketing plans.
Soon, Xiaodang flew back to Beijing. As soon as she walked out of the airport exit, she saw Jia Dongxu and Su Ming waiting for her there. The two stood out in the crowd. Jia Dongxu was dressed in a well-tailored suit, looking mature and steady, while Su Ming was a little younger, but his eyes were firm and warm.
"Xiaodang!" When Jia Dongxu saw Xiaodang appear, he couldn't help but take big strides towards her with a smile on his face.
Xiao Dang walked towards them quickly and hugged Jia Dongxu. "Uncle, long time no see!" Her voice was full of affection and joy.
Jia Dongxu hugged Xiaodang and patted her back gently. "You have grown up and become more beautiful. How is the weather in Beijing? How are you adapting?"
"Thank you, uncle! Beijing is okay and I've adapted quite well to it." Xiao Dang replied with a smile, his eyes flashing with longing for his hometown and love for this place.
Su Ming watched from the side, his heart filled with emotion. They came to pick up Xiao Dang this time not only because they missed her, but also because they wanted her to participate in the family affairs and feel the warmth and responsibility of the family.
"Xiaodang, we came to pick you up because we have something important to discuss. We'll tell you in detail on the way home." Su Ming said. He felt that they should go home first to discuss the next plan so that Xiaodang could also understand the current situation and future plans of the entire family.
The three of them walked to the parking lot and got into Su Ming's car. The car started and drove on the way home. Jia Dongxu sat in the co-pilot seat and looked at Su Ming and Xiao Dang, his eyes full of expectation and concern.
