First, he ordered some ingredients online, so that he could start preparing his drinks from the recipes within his head. The person who he had ordered the ingredients from had a warehouse near his house, and he assured Si Chen that he would send them over soon.
After around 2 hours, the man came, and after picking up the relevant ingredients, he went the kitchen.
Although he was poor, but he managed to scavenge some old machines when he was young, and after washing the machines clean, he brought them home to use.
Among the old machines was a drink blender.
Making a drink was quite easy, really.
You just had to mix the liquids together. Right?
The drink that he was making was the classic milk tea, with a hint of his own unique addition that would thoroughly bring out the sweetness and flavor of the drink.
No, it was not by adding condensed milk, or sugar.
It was a substance called baboonaloyxlic. It was a common substance in this world, but not many knew how to use it appropriately.
He added an appropriate amount of tea into the blender, along with a few spoons of sugar, then topped off with condensed milk, and finally the main ingredient, baboonaloyxlic.
He turned on the blender and stared mixing it, and after all was done, he opened the blender, and a sweet aroma entered his nose. He took a deep breath in satisfaction, before he continued making a few other types of drinks.
After that, he packed them all into suitable bottles, and left towards the Hui Yuan Drink Store.
But before he left, he did not forget to change into his western black suit attire.
He was planning to let Yang Deng taste and evaluate the effectiveness of it
Of course, with the knowledge within his mind, he was certain that it would taste good. But what he needed, was for Yang Deng to know that it tasted well.
As he walked into the place, he saw that it was bustling with customers, with every table filled with customers, and there was even a short line where they queued up for the drinks.
They were now a few extra attendants within the store, hired by Yang Deng to deal with the increasing workload. Even so, they scurried around hurriedly, their hands often tied up with matters.
As compared to the store he had previously entered, with the entire place desolate and lonely, and the sole attendant boringly sweeping the floor in a daze, it was a 100% transformation.
Just as he entered the drink store, he saw Yang Deng wearing a dignified suit befitting of his boss demeanour, giving a few orders to an attendant nearby.
Normally, Yang Deng would be at lazing around at home, but after the comeback of the drink store, he couldn't bear to spend a single moment of his time wasting at home.
Being the store owner, feeling the vibrant atmosphere inside, made him feel a sense of accomplishment and pride, and he was addicted to such a comforting sensation.
Of course, he knew who his current success was attributed to, so the moment he caught a glimpse of Si Chen wearing a suave western suit from the corner of his eyes, he immediately stopped what he was doing, and hurriedly walked over to greet him.
"Boss Si Chen! What are you doing here today?" This time, he added a 'boss' to his greeting, showing his respect and deference towards his abilities.
His business plan was just too impressively miraculous and effective, that he couldn't help but want to respect Si Chen, thinking of him not as a mere youth, but as an elder with higher standing than him.
"Looks like you have been working hard these days. Good job." Si Chen praised. He knew the immense effort that Yang Deng had put in day and night, if not the plan would not have been implemented so easily.
With such a capable person helping him, he couldn't help but compliment his dedication and commitment.
"You flatter me. This is what I was supposed to do." Yang Deng humbly replied back.
Si Chen nodded his head appreciatively, then brought him towards the back room of the store, where they could talk with peace, away from the bustling noise.
Afterwards, Si Chen took out the bottles of the drinks that he had previously prepared, and brought them in front of Yang Deng's face.
"Try them."
Yang Deng glanced at Si Chen, not knowing why he brought him specifically to this place just to try out a mere drink for.
But since he wanted him to try, it must be for a reason. So, it silently took the bottle from his hands, and started to take a sip of it.
And his taste buds literally exploded, as he felt a burst of euphoria spreading through his mind. It was telling him to drink more of this heavenly drink, and he did not resist this impulse, as he unrestrainedly gulped the entire bottle down his throat.
Unknowingly, he had already devoured the entire bottle, and when he lowered his gaze to look at the emptiness inside, he felt a sense of loss, like his precious toy was mercilessly stolen away from him
He shifted his gaze towards Si Chen, his eyes widened in shock, his lips faintly trembling as he asked, "Did you make this…drink?"
Si Chen directly nodded in return.
Yang Deng mind reeled in joy. He was an astute man, and he naturally knew what the implications this matter was.
A newly created drink. Addictive, and flavourful. Quality much higher than the market standard.
This was a walking cash machine!
Noticing the spark in Yang Deng's eyes, Si Chen wryly smiled as he said, "Now, don't you think we should revisit the arrangement of our shares distribution?"
That was right. He specifically came here to acquire more shares of the place. 51% of the shares was a lot, but not enough. Especially when he had all the available knowledge and capabilities to expand the development of the drink store.
And if he wanted to maximise his gains, he had to hold a greater portion of the shares, and that was when he would start to heavily invest in this business.
If not, why would he bother to work and spend his time on a business that didn't give him the greatest benefits in return?
That would basically be putting in the effort to put in cash into someone else's pockets.
"How much?" Yang Deng retracted his joyous expression, as he put on a solemn front.
"90 – 10. " Si Chen directly said, his face expressionless and calm.
"Impossible!" Yang Deng immediately yelled out. This meant that he would be giving up 40% of his shares to Si Chen! How could he possibly just simply hand them out, as if they were scrap paper.
