Chapter 531

“I plan to persuade the boss of Hello Company to open a hotpot restaurant in our Faith County!”

Darrel’s eyes shone as he spoke.

“He has already agreed and promised to sponsor half the money. But following his requests, it’s very
expensive to invest in one Hello Hotpot restaurant and I don’t have that kind of money.”

Darrel’s eyes burned into Jasper as he asked sincerely, “Jasper, I came here today to ask you for help.”

The elders must have stopped talking some time ago, for they were all listening to Jasper and Darrel’s
conversation.

After Darrel had spoken, both Honey and her husband looked at Jasper pleadingly.

Jasper tapped his fingers on the pictures but did not speak.

Honestly speaking, Darrel could have just decided to open a normal hotpot restaurant or any other
normal business.

In which case, Jasper would give him an amount he never expected to be repaid and that was that.

However, Darrel was interested in Hello Hotpot and even planned to open a shop here in the Southeast
Province. Now that was interesting.

“How about this? I’ll give you two options to choose from.”

After a long while, Jasper spoke.

“Option one, as long as the money you require is under 200,000 dollars, I’ll lend you however much
you need. You’ll have to pay me back someday but I won’t charge you for interest.



“Or option two, I’ll invest the money and you talk to the boss of Hello Company and tell him to directly
do his business here in the Southeast Province. Scale-wise, my only requirement is that there be at
least one in every prefecture-level city. I’ll deal with all the investment costs, and I can give you 10% of
the shares.”

Darrel then fell deep in thought for a moment after Jasper listed his options.

“I’ll take option two!” Darrel looked up at Jasper with determination.

Jasper chuckled, his satisfaction with Darrel increasing.

People more concerned with immediate benefits would tend to choose the first option. After all, that
was a solid 200,000 cash on hand.

However, while the second option only came with 10% of all the shares, any deeper thought would
have the person realizing how much better this option was. One restaurant in every prefecture-level city
in the province.

With such a large scale, 10% was much more valuable than 200,000.

Not to mention that once this project was completed, Hello Hotpot would become a large chain of
catering brands in the province. It was much more sophisticated than opening a small restaurant in
Faith County.

“A very wise choice.” Jasper nodded. “Take some time to talk it out with the boss of Hello Hotpot first.
The only thing I’m contributing is the funding, and you’ll have to do the rest yourself. Prepare a whole
proposal and send it over early next year.

“As long as I approve of it, then you’ll get the funds right away.”



Darrel flushed in excitement and nodded. “Okay! Thank you, Jasper, I’ll do my best.”

Jasper clapped Darrel’s shoulder and spoke, “You’re not doing anything for me. You’re doing it for
yourself.”

Just then, Honey asked with difficulty, “How much would it cost to open so many restaurants, Jasper?”

Jasper gave it some thought and replied, “Including Nauritius City, the provincial capital, the seven
prefecture-level cities in the Southeast Province… and personally, I think that there should be at least
two restaurants in the provincial capital, so it’s a total of eight restaurants. Then including the
construction fee and fixture expenses, I’d say no less than one million per restaurant.”

Thank goodness that this was the year 2000 when the cost for both rent and manpower was still cheap.

Had it been before he reincarnated, he would need at least five million per Hello Hotpot outlet.
