Chapter 376 Shopping with classmates
He doesn't like to bargain when he goes out to buy things, let alone supporting customers. Dad definitely doesn't have the patience.
Dad’s entire life’s patience has been devoted to his carpentry work. Let him carve a piece of wood and build a piece of furniture. He couldn't finish it, so he even drank as little water as possible and controlled the time when he went to the toilet.
It's really inappropriate for him to do business! Neither can her brother Chen Yi, he is not someone who can stay at home and have a job!
Let him drive around and keep him in one place, unless it's the card table!
Her mother is no good either. The old lady is confused and cannot distinguish between good and bad people. She is easily deceived when interacting with others. She always feels that it is a blessing to be at a disadvantage. Let her look after the store. Within half a year, she will even lose her capital.
The only shrewd person in her family is her sister-in-law, but her sister-in-law is so shrewd that Chen Hong is afraid that she will turn her left hand to her right hand and transfer all the family's money into her own pocket.
…………
Chen Hong said to Wang Yunyan: "Then help me see if there are any shops for sale in your area. If it is suitable, I will buy one.
When the time comes, please help me keep an eye on them. The people in my family are too honest. If I are close to you, I can feel at ease when I go to Beijing. "
Wang Yunyan laughed loudly: "I like what you say. Your father is a good man. Do you remember? The bench in my house was given to us by your father!"
Chen Hong, if it weren’t for her mother’s luck, she would be in a hurry!
The shop two doors down from my shop was for sale, and it was announced just the day before yesterday. His landlord and I bought a shop together, and the area is exactly the same as mine.
If I couldn't afford it now, I would have bought it. If I didn't do it myself, it would be very cost-effective to rent it out. "
Chen Hong listened to others' advice to eat enough and dropped off her children first. She didn't even return home and went directly to People's Mall to meet Wang Yunyan.
The two middle-aged women spent the afternoon shopping, first looking at the shops next to her shop. Unfortunately, the landlord transferred the shop to his relatives, so they were a step late.
Wang Yunyan was very embarrassed and asked Chen Hong to go with her for nothing. Deciding to let the clerk watch the store, she led Chen Hong around,
"It's okay. There are many shops nearby. If this one doesn't work, let's find another one.
I still don’t believe it. In the past, there were many shops for sublease and resale. We want to buy one, but no one can sell it to us? "
"Oh, let's not be in a hurry, let's just rely on luck! If we find something suitable, we'll just take a look. If we don't find one, we'll just go shopping.
Yunyan, we haven’t played together for almost twenty years. Now our children have grown up and there is no such great pressure in life.
Today we can take a break from our busy schedule and relax. "
Wang Yunyan was also very excited today. She was particularly happy to see old classmates whom she had not seen for more than ten years. They were still so close to each other and there was no sense of alienation at all.
The two of them walked and watched, slowly wandering to an alley to the west, which was full of various northern and southern style fast food restaurants.
They recalled the scene more than ten years ago, "Why has this street not changed after so many years?
I remember there was a rice noodle shop here that was very good. Their rice noodles were very delicious and had enough meat in them. I still remember the delicious aroma! "
While shopping, Chen Hong and Wang Yunyan looked for the snack bars in their memories, including stir-fried chestnuts with sugar, stinky tofu, fried spinels, steamed dumplings and many other famous local snacks.
Last year, the Quancheng Plaza underground supermarket not far to the west was flooded by heavy rains, and it has never recovered from it until now.
A large number of merchants have withdrawn their leases, causing the business of the snack streets not far from it to be sluggish.
"The business in these streets was pretty good the year before last! When the flood hit last year, the snack vendors were the first to be affected.
I originally wanted to rent a store here last year and try selling food, but I stopped thinking about it now.
Look, only half of the stores are open now, and the customer flow is not good at all! It’s hard to make money this year! "
Wang Yunyan introduced the situation here to Chen Hong. The two of them were walking when a noisy quarrel came from the front.
“Please give me your money back quickly, or I will destroy your store.
I promised to make money, but after more than three months of opening, I lost more than 100,000 yuan.
I'm telling you, don't say I'm bullying you. I don't want the deposit. You can refund my rent of 90,000 yuan this year and we'll be done with it.
Otherwise, you won’t be able to rent this store out again in the future. Anyone who dares to take it over will not be able to continue working! "
Amid the bustling crowd, a young woman came to plead: "Brother, your loss of money has nothing to do with us. We signed a contract when we rented it out.
If you quit now, we will definitely sublet it out. At that time, it was clearly written in black and white that if we don’t rent for three years, we will not refund the rent and deposit.
If it expires and you decide not to rent in advance, we will refund the deposit to you.
Think about it, you only worked for three months of the three-year lease. Not only did it affect our ability to rent a house, but you also had to refund the rent. This cannot be justified in any way. "
The tenant was anxious: "Fuck you, you are fucking liars. Why did you say this is a prime store when renting, and the rent is so high?"
I will pay you 100,000 yuan in three months. If I continue to work, I will pay you 100,000 yuan or 100,000 yuan in three years instead of 40,000 yuan or 500,000 yuan in three years. Your shop is only worth this damn price. Do you want to cheat me? "
The landlords were a young couple. The man became anxious when he saw the tenant. He rolled up his sleeves and wanted to hit her. He was also frightened and hid behind the woman and shouted:
"Brother, we didn't mean to lie to you, and what you and I said about the market doesn't matter.
Now you're not the only one with bad business. If everyone agrees with you and breaks the contract if they can't make money, wouldn't it be a mess?
Tell me, how can you be like this? You don't continue to rent, and you don't want others to rent, and you want us to refund the rent. You are too unreasonable.
If you want to break the contract and get your money back, there is really no way! We just bought a house, and the old man at home is sick again, and we really have no money.
If we had money, we wouldn't be in a hurry to rent out the house again.
If you want to make trouble, there's nothing we can do about it. Anyway, this is the situation now, so you can figure it out!
If the shop is really smashed, no one will rent the shop, I can't make any money, and you can't make any money either. "
The middle-aged tenant was not a fastidious person. Seeing that he really couldn't get a penny out, he gave an order and rushed into the store with five or six strong men. He smashed everything with a pickaxe.
There were no tables, stools, basins, pots, cutlery, or bar counters, not even the lights on the roof. It was as if the Japanese had entered the village.
After all, the landlord of the shop next to him was an old neighbor. He advised the young couple: "Hua Zhen, if you can't, please return the rent to them. I see that these people are not easy to get along with."
Why did you provoke them? Even if you refund the money and rent out the shop again, you won't lose tens of thousands of dollars.
If they come to make trouble every day, not only will your shop not be able to be rented out, but it will also affect the neighboring businesses.
Look, in a short time, all the customers in these stores have left. They can't make any money. You can't offend your neighbors to death. "
The homeowner named Huazhen twisted his neck and refused to bow his head: "I have no money. If I had money, would I still deal with this problem with them?
There is nothing I can do to affect your business. Life is difficult for everyone now.
If you really want to help me, you can buy my shop or rent it out for me. "
