Chapter 101

Online opinions held no significance for Su Yi.

He wasn't an official; he didn't need to care about how outsiders judged the matter of right and wrong.

As the saying goes, 'What begins with the crowd, ends with the crowd.'

The Tianyu Group didn't rely on such messy things to survive, so it naturally didn't pay much attention to outside opinions.

Although the island incident was a big commotion, Su Yi estimated that with the West's efficiency, it would take at least ten days to half a month to produce any results. A real military strike wouldn't happen in the next few days, so there was no need to worry for the time being.

Moreover, he had deployed five sets of powered armor on the island, which was more than enough to handle most emergencies.

After returning to Jiangcheng, while the outside world was endlessly debating about the future of Tianyu Group, he, the person actually in charge, found himself with free time.

After several days of doing nothing, he heard Yue Ling say that the first batch of magical crops planted on his farm was ready for harvest. Except for some that needed to be kept as seeds, the rest could all be sold.

These magical crops were fast-growing varieties, and the magic power they contained wasn't very high. In fact, they were inferior to the finished products that Su Yi directly imported from Vivi.

Magical crops sounded high-end, but the principles of planting them weren't much different from ordinary crops.

Forcibly ripened crops definitely didn't taste as good as normally grown ones.

It was the same principle.

However, even so, these magical crops that matured quickly in the magic circle were definitely more nutritious and delicious than ordinary crops.

Although the magic power they contained was low, it depended on who you compared them to. Compared to ordinary crops on Blue Star, they were still a great tonic.

Since Yue Ling suggested selling them, Su Yi naturally had no reason to be reluctant. Anyway, he would never lack magical crops for his own consumption. Planting so many other magical crops on the farm was bound to lead to selling them sooner or later.

He directly made a phone call to Huang Lin.

Su Yi hadn't forgotten that he had promised Huang Lin to give him a boost.

Wasn't his restaurant chain trying to become a chain brand?

With the supply of these magical crops, it would definitely be able to soar.

Of course, Su Yi didn't say anything like 'magical food'. To make Huang Lin believe him, he said that he had cultivated a new type of crop on his ecological farm, which not only tasted extremely special but was also very nutritious.

Eating it had many benefits; it could not only strengthen the body but also nourish yin and replenish yang.

"No way, bro, did you grow an elixir in your farm?"

This was Huang Lin's first reaction after hearing the description.

Of course, one thing was one thing, but his body was still very honest.

He immediately took the chef from his restaurant to Su Yi's house. After tasting the magical ingredients cooked by the chef, he immediately said that if this stuff went on the market, it would definitely be a hit nationwide.

Let alone opening a chain restaurant, it would definitely become a catering giant in the future.

What Haidilao and McDonald's are nothing!

After hearing Su Yi propose that Tianyu Ecological Farm would provide him with ingredients, and he only needed to purchase these special ingredients at normal prices, and that as long as he could handle it, all the magical ingredients produced on the farm could be given to him.

Huang Lin's attitude was also very simple:

"No way!"

"We're brothers, but business is business. Your stuff is currently unique, and although the purchase price of special ingredients isn't cheap, the price it can be sold for after being made into a finished product is astronomical. You're losing out by only earning the money from selling the ingredients."

"If all the special ingredients from the farm are given to me, it would be equivalent to this special ingredient being the only one in the catering industry. Monopoly is always extremely profitable."

"What I mean is, the conditions you proposed remain unchanged, but on the restaurant issue, I'll go back and discuss it with my old man. You'll hold 50% of the shares and profits in the catering company in the form of technology, and we'll discuss the rest with other partners."

"If they can accept it, they can accept it. If they can't, they can withdraw. I'll refund their money now. Of course, the reason for doing this can't be told to them now. When our family's store was first established, it attracted a lot of outside investment. They've made a lot of money over the years, and there have been a lot of conflicts. To be honest, my old man and I didn't really want to play with them anymore."

"If we can take this opportunity to let them withdraw before the special ingredient listed company increases the number of branches and expands its scale, it would be a good thing for us."

Su Yi listened to his long speech and only understood his meaning after a long time.

It turned out that he and his son had long been dissatisfied with some partners. Now that they knew that the store would definitely take off after obtaining the supply of magical ingredients from Su Yi, they were naturally unwilling to let other partners benefit.

He would rather give the extra shares to Su Yi after these people withdrew.

"I have a question."

"What question?" Huang Lin asked in confusion.

"Since there are many shareholders in this store who make you dissatisfied, why not just abandon this thing and open a new store?" Su Yi shrugged his shoulders:

"Opening a new store isn't a problem, right?"

Huang Lin sighed upon hearing this:

"Without the trouble of a bunch of messy shareholders, there are more new troubles."

"Our family's store has been open for some years, and we've spent a lot of money on celebrity and internet celebrity endorsements. Don't laugh, but it actually has a certain brand value. If we give up this brand and start over, it would be too much of a pity."

"Celebrity and internet celebrity endorsements?" Su Yi twitched the corner of his mouth and looked at him with the eyes of a fool.

"Hey, what kind of look is that?" Huang Lin said dissatisfied.

"Are you stupid? What are celebrity and internet celebrity endorsements for?" Su Yi pointed to Yue Ling, who was curled up on the sofa playing with her phone:

"Which celebrity or internet celebrity is more popular than her?"

Huang Lin was stunned for a moment and subconsciously shook his head:

"It seems not."

Although Yue Ling didn't even have a social account that had been dug up and had never appeared in any public occasion other than the Tianyu Group product launch event to say anything.

But with her heaven-defying appearance and temperament, her popularity on the internet now completely crushes all first-line big stars.

"Then do you think there is any celebrity or internet celebrity that our Tianyu Group can't invite?"

Su Yi asked again.

Huang Lin continued to shake his head.

The Tianyu Group is now in a position to become a giant in the domestic semiconductor and medical industries.

Which short-sighted celebrity or internet celebrity would dare not give Tianyu Group face?

"That's it." Su Yi patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly:

"That's why I'm the godfather and you're the son. Son, be bold and don't be so petty."

"Go back and get it done first, and open it quickly. What brand accumulation is bullshit. When your new store opens, I'll make you popular all over the internet in one day."
