Chapter 188: President Chen’s Invitation

"How is that possible? President Chen's workshop was just finished being renovated; it's impossible to have a new one so soon…"

Wang Yang heard Chen Jun's words and hurriedly shook his head in denial, but before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the sudden ringing of his mobile phone.

He took out his phone and answered the call.

After a while, Wang Yang looked at Chen Jun with a strange expression.

"Brother Jun, the person in charge of President Chen's coffee shop called to say that there is a new branch that needs renovation and asked me to go over and take measurements."

Chen Jun: …

His previous sentence had just been a joke; how did it actually come true?

He glanced at Wang Yang with complex emotions.

"Where is the address? I'll drive you there."

…

"Sister Shuyun, are you planning to open a clothing store next door?"

Song Xia turned to look at Li Shuyun beside her.

After several days of investigation, it was finally confirmed that the method of using cats to attract customers was indeed feasible. Therefore, after discussing it with Teacher Su, they decided to postpone the plan for Zhou Mei's Maid Cafe.

This new branch would adopt Lin Zhu's plan.

The name for the signboard had already been chosen.

Nanhe Coffee, Cat Cafe.

However, since they chose to use cats to attract customers, the renovation could not be as traditional as before. So, she came here this time to instruct the person taking measurements on how to handle the renovation.

Li Shuyun nodded slightly upon hearing Song Xia's question.

"Yes, both of these storefronts are mine. I'll rent one to you, and the one next door will be perfect for a clothing store agency."

"Your coffee tastes good; wouldn't it be much more convenient for me to get coffee in the future?"

"By the way, when the person from the renovation company comes to take measurements later, let him measure the one next door too, so I don't have to go find a renovation company myself."

The renovation of the coffee shop she visited last time was excellent, and it was done by the very same renovation company that was about to arrive, so she had nothing else to worry about.

"Alright, Sister Shuyun."

Song Xia nodded.

Not long after, Wang Yang and Chen Jun arrived at the storefront.

"Hello, I am the person in charge of the coffee shop, Song Xia."

Seeing the two men enter, Song Xia immediately recognized them as the same two people who had gone to the coffee shop to take measurements last time, so she walked up to greet them.

"Hello, General Manager Song, is this the storefront that needs to be renovated?"

Wang Yang looked over the layout of the storefront and found that its area seemed to be even larger than the previous coffee shop.

"Yes, but this time, the coffee shop renovation will be cat-themed."

"So, the renovation will be different from the previous one. This time, the focus is on being cute, relaxing, and lively, with the overall design using warm color tones."

Wang Yang took out his prepared notebook and hurriedly wrote it down.

After Song Xia finished speaking, he asked.

"Are there any other requirements?"

Song Xia thought for a moment, walked around inside the storefront, and then pointed to a few places.

"In these few places, I need to install some cat trees, the kind that go straight up to the ceiling…"

"The overall requirement is to ensure that customers can interact and play with the cats in the coffee shop better. If you have any suggestions or inspiration, you can also design it yourself."

"Alright, General Manager Song, I have noted down all your requirements. If there are no other requests, I will start taking measurements."

"There are no other requests. You can start measuring. Oh, by the way, the storefront next door also needs to be renovated. After you finish measuring here, go and measure that one too."

Song Xia pointed to the storefront on the right and found a place to sit and rest. After all, she had to wait for the two of them to finish measuring before she could close up and leave.

Wang Yang was stunned upon hearing Song Xia's words.

When they arrived, they were told only one storefront needed renovation, but upon arriving here, another one suddenly appeared.

This surprise came too suddenly.

He quickly snapped back to reality and hurried to take measurements.

After a while, Wang Yang put away his tools and found Song Xia.

"General Manager Song, the measurements are done. We are going to the one next door."

"Mm!"

Song Xia nodded, followed them out of the storefront, closed the door, told Li Shuyun, and then left first.

"Hello, we are here from the renovation company to take measurements."

Wang Yang and Chen Jun found Li Shuyun.

"I know, go ahead and measure. Also, I have two other friends who have storefronts that need renovation, both clothing stores. I'll give you their contact information; you can go over later and measure those as well."

Li Shuyun glanced at the two men; Song Xia had already told her about them just moments ago.

Wang Yang was stunned once again; do these renovation jobs reproduce?

He thought that having one extra was already a big surprise, but he didn't expect two more to appear just like that.

Chen Jun stood beside Wang Yang, his heart feeling as if it had suffered a heavy blow.

He had never seen this way of getting orders before.

Other designers all had to compete with many others for a single order, but Wang Yang was different. These renovation orders were clearly jumping into his hands on their own.

Why was it like this!

Chen Jun fell silent; he couldn't figure it out.

All his years of experience were completely useless here with Wang Yang.

…

In West Guang County, inside a barbecue restaurant, Chen Mo was eating barbecue with Li Shen, Yang Dahai, and Yang Xingguo.

Today was already the sixth day since they arrived here. They had already visited all the surrounding villages, and all the elderly people they wanted to help had been fully sponsored.

After finishing this barbecue, they would be heading back tomorrow.

"Brother Yang, would you like to consider my proposal?"

Chen Mo looked up at Yang Xingguo. Just today, he had told Yang Xingguo about his plan to establish a survey group for disadvantaged groups and extended an invitation, but Yang Xingguo had not given him an answer yet.

Yang Xingguo fell silent upon hearing Chen Mo's words.

He was very tempted by President Chen's proposal. For so many years, he had been helping disadvantaged groups, and over time, it had become a passion.

However, his ability was limited, and he could only help a portion of the people.

And the proposal given by President Chen was clearly capable of helping more people in need.

Moreover, after these days of getting to know him, he also knew that President Chen had the capability to do so.

But the only thing that made him hesitate was that he currently ran a fruit stand with his wife, and he had to be the one to set up and close the stall every morning and evening.

However, if he agreed to President Chen's proposal, he would definitely have to travel all over the country in the future, which would mean leaving his wife and daughter at home alone.

Those crates of fruit were very heavy, and it would definitely be very difficult for two women to set up the stall.

He also understood his wife's personality; she would definitely push herself to set up the stall.

If she strained herself while lifting the fruit, that would be bad.

Thinking of this, Yang Xingguo looked up at Chen Mo with an apologetic expression and explained his concerns.
