Chapter 365

Li Fei only left after having lunch with Liu Saner and the others at Qingyuan City Management Company.

At the dining table, he personally toasted Liu Saner, leaving the other company executives stunned; the shock was no less than seeing You Xiaofeng killed!

With just this one toast, Liu Saner's position as General Manager was basically unshakable.

Anyone with ambition or ideas could only calm down in the face of the three words 'Marquis of Jing'an'.

After lunch, Li Fei left with Lu Wenxing.

Lu Wenxing drove him personally to the Chen Mansion.

Outside the gates of the Chen Mansion, Chen Lixin was waiting with a group of Chen family elders.

When the car Li Fei was riding in slowly drove toward them, the white-haired elders present all showed excitement.

When the Chen family suffered a disaster and dozens of family members were captured, the family suffered a huge blow, and the culprit was Li Fei.

At that time, all the elders present wished they could swallow Li Fei alive!

But now that Li Fei had been ennobled as a Marquis and was visiting the Chen family, these elders were the most excited.

They dared to hate an ordinary martial arts student.

But they dared not hate a 19-year-old Marquis and a 15th-level Blue Patrol Special Envoy.

They even felt this was the family's glory!

After all, never in the history of the Chen family had a Marquis come to visit.

Soon, the car stopped, and Li Fei stepped out.

Chen Lixin was the first to greet him:

"Greetings, Mar—"

"Alright, alright."

Li Fei smiled and helped his childhood friend up, "Why be so formal with me?"

This gesture left the group of elders, who were halfway through their bows, stunned; they immediately felt honored and beamed with joy!

"Greetings, Marquis of Jing'an!"

These elders still completed their salute to Li Fei.

Chen Lixin didn't have to salute, but they had to show the Chen family's etiquette.

"Everyone, please don't be so formal."

Li Fei said with a kind attitude.

Afterward, he looked at a woman behind the crowd and took the initiative to greet her:

"Aunt Lin, long time no see. How have you been?"

This Aunt Lin was Chen Lixin's mother; when Li Fei and Li Tianyu came to the Chen Mansion to play as children, she often made various pastries for them and was the elder Li Fei and Li Tianyu liked most.

"Eh, Xiao—"

Lin Youqing subconsciously wanted to greet him, but stopped immediately.

"Aunt Lin, you can still call me Xiao Fei."

Li Fei said with a smile.

"Good Xiao Fei, Auntie is doing very well."

Lin Youqing looked at Li Fei with gratification.

She was originally an overlooked woman in the Chen Mansion; her husband died early, and she raised Chen Lixin alone. Her life could not be called poor, but it was certainly not wealthy.

She never dreamed that Chen Lixin would one day become the head of the Chen family.

Wealth overnight!

And all of this was given by Li Fei.

So Lin Youqing was sincerely grateful to Li Fei; looking at him at this moment, her emotions were a bit uncontrollable, and her eyes turned red.

"Mom, let's go inside first."

Chen Lixin noticed his mother's unusual state and walked over to say.

Lin Youqing wiped her eyes: "Right, right, right. Come, Xiao Fei, let's go inside first."

A group of people welcomed Li Fei into the Chen Mansion.

This was not Li Fei's first time at this mansion; according to the original body's memories, he had been here many times as a child.

But he always entered through the side door and went to the side rooms.

He had never truly seen the prosperity of this mansion.

Only now was it his first time being welcomed through the main gate, passing through the front courtyard and the atrium, entering the main hall used for receiving guests, and being invited to sit in the central seat of honor, with Chen Lixin sitting beside him.

After a few elders stayed to chat for a while, they tactfully took their leave, leaving the space to Li Fei, Chen Lixin, and Lin Youqing.

With only the three of them left, the atmosphere was clearly much more relaxed; Li Fei took the initiative to bring up many things from their childhood, making Lin Youqing laugh until her eyes turned red again.

A moment later, she stood up: "Xiao Fei, you and Lixin chat first; I'll go get you the pastries I made."

Afterward, she also walked out of the hall.

"How is it? How does it feel to be the family head?"

Li Fei asked Chen Lixin with a smile.

Chen Lixin adjusted his glasses and smiled, revealing his white teeth:

"It's pretty great!"

"Hahahaha."

"How about you? How does it feel to be a Marquis?"

"Probably a billion times better than you."

"Hahahaha."

"..."

After the two joked for a while, Li Fei brought up the topic of food delivery:

"I didn't expect you to actually realize this concept."

Talking about his proudest work, Chen Lixin immediately became spirited and began to talk endlessly about his experiences and ideas.

After Li Fei finished listening with a smile, he said to him:

"You have indeed done quite well, but there are still some areas that can be improved."

"Oh?"

Chen Lixin glanced at Li Fei, "You also know how to do business?"

Li Fei nodded: "I know a little."

Seeing Chen Lixin's dismissive attitude, he asked with a smile:

"Forgot who provided you with the idea for food delivery?"

Chen Lixin adjusted his glasses: "The idea and the specific implementation are two completely different things. Doing business is also a very profound field of study, no simpler than practicing martial arts."

When it came to martial arts, he naturally didn't dare compare himself to Li Fei, but when it came to business, this was his proudest field.

Being able to get into the business department of the Martial Arts University with near-perfect scores and ranking at the top in several exams at the university, he indeed had the capital to be proud.

"Your delivery company can add a rating system."

Li Fei decided to get straight to the point.

"What is... a rating system?"

"It means allowing all users to evaluate the food of that restaurant after every meal; for example, if they feel it's good, give it five stars. If they feel it's bad, give it one star. The final comprehensive score is the gourmet rating of that restaurant."

"What is the use of this?"

"Once your rating system is initially perfected, in the future, if other customers want to eat at a restaurant they have never eaten at before but are worried about being disappointed, they can first look at the restaurant's rating. Restaurants with high ratings will naturally have more people willing to eat there."

Chen Lixin's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

He immediately understood the various benefits:

"This is a good idea; in the future, my delivery company will be the father of the entire catering industry in Xingcheng!"

"Hmm, but the ratings should still be as authentic as possible; in the early stages, you need to establish reputation and authority."

Li Fei said.

Chen Lixin nodded: "I understand this."

"Also, you can let the restaurants that cooperate with your delivery company regularly offer some coupons, and these coupons can only be used when ordering through your company..."

"You can regularly hold events, such as a delivery carnival, sell coupons, and let customers consume in advance..."

"You can let merchants do discounts, that is, if the consumption reaches a certain amount, a portion of the cost can be waived, stimulating users to consume more..."

"..."

Li Fei told Chen Lixin one by one about the content in his memory.

He had the most perfect and direct user experience, so the content he spoke of was the real deal!

Some strategies might not be suitable for this era, but they could still provide inspiration to Chen Lixin.

Chen Lixin went from initial surprise and doubt to shock, worship, and finally numbness...

He really didn't expect that the 'know a little' in Li Fei's mouth was actually this kind of 'knowing'!

Could it be that the so-called peerless genius is not limited to martial arts, but is an all-around talent who can master everything?!

Is this the gold content of being the first in history?

Li Fei spoke until his mouth was dry, took a sip of tea, looked at the stunned Chen Lixin, and smiled very satisfied:

"I've said so much, did you remember it all?"

"... Remembered."

"Do I know a little bit about business?"

"You are really not human."

"Why are you scolding people?"

"I'm praising you."

Chen Lixin sighed, "Alright, I admit, I was shallow. From now on, you are my brother. Brother Fei is above, please accept a bow from your little brother!"

As he said this, he stood up and bowed seriously to Li Fei.

In fact, he had long wanted to sincerely bow to Li Fei to express his gratitude.

But between friends, doing so would seem distant.

Now he had just used a joke to express it.

"Hahahaha."

Li Fei laughed and accepted Chen Lixin's bow.

After Chen Lixin sat down, Lin Youqing had a maid bring back a pile of pastries.

After she had someone put down the pastries, she left again, because she knew Li Fei and Chen Lixin must have serious matters to discuss.

"Seriously, what do you want me to do in the future?"

Chen Lixin looked at Li Fei and asked seriously.

Li Fei spoke of so many business methods, which certainly wasn't something he thought of on the spot, but had thought about seriously for a long time.

This showed that Li Fei's arrangements for him were certainly not limited to Xingcheng.

Li Fei looked at Chen Lixin approvingly.

This childhood friend's mind was indeed sharp.

"First of all, I hope your delivery company can expand to Datong Prefecture City, to Bai Yang City, Master Ming Qi City, and finally expand throughout the entire Feng Province, and even the entire Great Lan Dynasty!"

Li Fei said to Chen Lixin.

Chen Lixin said very seriously upon hearing this: "Expanding throughout Datong Prefecture, with your connections, is not a big problem. But the ones after that are not something that can be achieved just by knowing how to do business."

He understood some of the operating rules of this society better than Li Fei.

Many businesses, no matter how well done or how strong the capital, can only be limited to a certain place forever.

They can't get out.

Those commercial firms and companies that can spread across the country are supported by truly great factions behind the scenes.

For example, the royal family's business, or those aristocratic families whose inheritance time is longer than the Great Lan Dynasty.

Li Fei also understood this truth, and he nodded:

"I know, let's start from Datong Prefecture first. As for the future, there will always be opportunities."

Chen Lixin: "That's true, I forgot you also have the status of a Blue Patrol Special Envoy, who can patrol the world; wherever you go, others have to give you face."

"Besides food delivery, I have many other ideas involving various industries, so in the future, we will not be limited to food delivery and the catering industry."

"You also know other industries?!"

"Know a little."

"..."

"So I think the Chen family delivery company is not enough; I plan to establish a commercial firm to accommodate companies in all walks of life."

Li Fei said his thoughts.

If martial arts is his capital for settling down, then his own faction is the wings he prepared for himself.

These wings can not only make him like a tiger with wings but also allow him to better protect the people around him and better do what he wants to do.

Qingyuan City Management Company, rooted in the grassroots people and merchants, is one wing Li Fei built for himself.

Then the commercial firm established with Chen Lixin is the other wing.

"A commercial firm? That's fine."

"I plan to name this commercial firm 'Feixin'; what do you think?"

"Feixin Commercial Firm... Good."

Chen Lixin smiled.

Li Fei also smiled, looking at him:

"Lixin, you have liked business since you were a child, liked doing business; have you ever thought about what your goal is in the future?"

Chen Lixin was stunned for a moment, then said slowly:

"At first, I thought about getting into the Martial Arts University, becoming an official after graduation, accumulating original capital, and then finding an opportunity to start doing business.

But now, maybe it's like what you just said, strive to make the business spread across the country."

Li Fei grabbed his arm with his hand:

"Lixin, a man should have high aspirations; no matter what you do, since you have decided to do it, you should strive to go to the highest place.

I practice martial arts, so I am determined to be the best in the world!

You do business, so you should also think about making Feixin Commercial Firm the number one commercial firm in the world!"

"..."

Chen Lixin was stunned.

What Li Fei said was something he had never thought of.

Looking at his friend's firm gaze, Chen Lixin's eyes also gradually became fiery.

The afternoon sun shone into this hall, and the dust in the air danced in the sunlight.

The young man's ambition and dreams began to sprout here:

"Hmm, number one in the world!"

Requesting monthly votes.
