Chapter 210 Three Months of Rent Reduction

Qin Qing and Ma Fangfang set up a stall at the entrance of the market. Soon, all the customers who had placed orders came to pick up their goods.

The stall was packed with people. Not only were all the previous orders being sold, but a lot of goods were also sold.

Tang Min also got the hang of it quickly and enthusiastically introduced the clothes to people.

"Boss Qin, business is booming."

A familiar voice sounded. Qin Qing turned her head and saw Ji Poyan standing not far away with a smile on his face.

"Comrade Ji!"

Qin Qing handed the work in her hands to Bai Fan Di and asked him to continue trying clothes on the customer.

"Business is doing well." Ji Boyan glanced at the long queue with a look of admiration in his eyes.

She really knows how to do business. She even asked customers to come here to pick up the goods and set up a stall right under his nose. It was hard not to think that she was doing it just to show him.

"Comrade Ji, when do you plan to complete this wholesale market?"

Qin Qing got straight to the point. Judging from the time, the market should be almost finished being renovated.

"Why, what are your plans?"

Ji Boyan's question made Qin Qing laugh. "Comrade Ji, you're pretending to be ignorant. I'm asking this because I want to ask you for your stall!"

The matter of the Hedong Mop Factory has been settled, and Qin Qing now has the confidence to negotiate with Ji Boyan.

"That's true. The inspection team has approved it. I came here today to congratulate you."

Ji Boyan also heard the workers say that someone had set up a stall in front of the market and business was booming.

Without even thinking, he guessed that it must be Qin Qing. When he came over to take a look, he saw that she was indeed there.

"No need to congratulate, Comrade Ji. I just want a stall from you, the first one. Also, I've already negotiated with the textile factory, and they'll also be opening a wholesale market. So, buy one, get one free? Pretty good deal, right?"

The favor Qin Qing had done for Xu Guoli was used again by Ji Boyan.

Ji Boyan shook his head helplessly, "That's the best stall in the whole market. If I give it to you, what if the textile factory and the shoe factory come to cause trouble for me?"

"I believe everyone will understand and support township enterprises."

Seeing Qin Qing blinking, Ji Boyan didn't keep her in suspense any longer. "I've already reserved this stall for you. If you can open a mop factory, I believe you can do anything."

"Thank you, Comrade Ji!"

Qin Qing was overjoyed. This was simply good news all the time.

"When will the stalls at this wholesale market open?"

When this question was mentioned, Ji Boyan was also in trouble.

"Actually, the market renovations have already been completed, and it's ready to open any day now. The problem lies in renting out stalls. Although I've been able to negotiate with textile, mop, and shoe factories, the management is still worried about finding tenants."

The task of renting out the wholesale market has fallen on Ji Boyan's head. He tentatively contacted the merchants who had rented stalls before, but none of them responded.

Everyone was still waiting and watching, not daring to make a decision immediately, so Ji Boyan was very troubled.

"Comrade Ji, I have an idea."

The methods spoken by Qin Qing are always refreshing. Ji Boyan immediately became interested and quickly spoke.

"What's the solution? Tell me."

"Comrade Ji, you should know that there is no such thing as a free lunch, right?"

Ji Boyan was now keeping Qin Qing in suspense, but he also knew that Qin Qing was a person who would not do anything without profit. If he didn't give her some benefits, it would be very difficult for him to hear her ideas.

"Tell me, what do you want?"

Ji Boyan felt that he had never suffered any loss in his life, but it was Qin Qing who had suffered losses one after another. But fortunately, she was able to come up with ideas to help him.

"It's not that I'm being naive. It's just the rent for this stall. Do you think you can..."

Qin Qing blinked and didn't finish her words, but the meaning of her words was obvious.

"You'll get a month off!"

"Three months!"

Qin Qing did not take advantage of Ji Boyan too much. After all, he had really helped her a lot.

"Three months? That depends on whether the idea you provide is worth three months!"

Ji Boyan threw the question to Qin Qing, and Qin Qing smiled.

"You can rent out the stall in batches."

"In batches? What does that mean?" Ji Boyan had never heard of Qin Qing's statement before, so he motioned for her to continue.

"You can divide it into three or four batches, releasing only a small number of stalls each time, and be sure to explain that first-come, first-served basis is the deposit, and the number of stalls is limited."

This is hunger marketing. Once the quantity is small, it will naturally cause people to scramble for it.

As soon as Qin Qing came up with this idea, Ji Boyan suddenly understood.

She stepped forward and whispered, "By the way, you can spread some news about how many businesses are waiting to grab the space, and arrange some actors."

"Actor?" Ji Boyan was a little confused.

"On the first day of the rental, arrange for some people to pretend to be merchants and spread rumors that they want to grab certain stalls. Three people make a tiger!"

Qin Qing has made her words so clearly. If Ji Boyan still doesn't understand, then he is indeed stupid.

"That's unacceptable. This is false advertising and is against our policy."

Ji Boyan refused with a serious face, but Qin Qing smiled and said, "Anyway, I have already told you the method. As for how to do it, it depends on your decision."

Qin Qing certainly knew that her final method was a bit despicable, but the business world is like a battlefield, and all is fair in war.

Besides, once this wholesale market is established, no matter who takes over these stalls now, they will definitely be grateful for their "wise" decision in the future and will never regret it.

Ji Boyan thought about it and of course he knew that Qin Qing’s idea was indeed reasonable.

However, this matter certainly cannot be done openly. Once it gets out, it will also affect the reputation of the Investment Promotion Office. But this does not mean that he cannot do it secretly.

Ji Boyan was not a person who stuck to the rules. Now that Qin Qing had pointed out a clear path for him, he naturally knew what to do.

"Comrade Ji, what do you think? How many months is my idea worth?"

Ahem…

Ji Boyan coughed lightly twice and finally said, "Then three months."

"Then I would like to thank Comrade Ji on behalf of the mop factory!"

Qin Qing was delighted. She had successfully accomplished another thing today, and was one step closer to her goal of going to Kyoto.
