Back at Wang Yunyan's shop, Chen Hong asked her to inquire with her neighbor in Huazhen about how much his shop was worth.

By the way, could you tell me the current market conditions for shops on the streets near Furong Street? If the conditions are right, she'd like to buy a couple more in good locations.

When Wang Yunyan heard that she had her eye on a shop on Furong Street, she was a little embarrassed. "Chen Hong, didn't you hear? The trouble started today because the tenants wanted to terminate their leases."

These shops clearly aren't profitable; people want to get rid of them. Why do you still want to buy them?

If you buy it, you'll lose money even if you run it yourself, let alone rent it out.

Don't be fooled by their current inability to sell; they're asking for high prices. These people are just stubbornly holding on, always hoping for a price increase. Even though business is slowing down, their prices haven't dropped much.

I heard from others that they had all agreed to a price of over 10,000 yuan per square meter, and no one was allowed to lower the price.

It's so expensive, are you still going to buy it? Don't let it become a burden, something you can't sell or rent out. You'll be in big trouble then.

"With that money, you'd be better off putting it in the bank and earning interest! At least you'd get tens of thousands of yuan in interest a year, and you wouldn't lose your principal."

Despite all the persuasion, Chen Hong was determined to buy it. What to do when your old classmate won't listen to advice?

We can only try to cut back on expenses!

Chen Hong told her about the shops she liked and asked her to help her negotiate the prices. Once the prices were negotiated down to her expected range, Chen Hong bought them.

After finishing their conversation, it was time to pick up the children. Wang Yunyan also needed to pick up her child, so she said goodbye to Chen Hong and drove off in her Wuling Xingguang minivan.

After breaking up with Wang Yunyan, Chen Hong drove to pick up her child. When she arrived at the school gate, Yu Yang had not yet finished school.
