Chapter 278 Aunt An's Business Plan
"But those houses over there will probably be rented out as well." An Songyu said, somewhat embarrassed.
“How could I not know that?” Yuan Qionghua couldn’t help but laugh. “But renting a house over there is definitely different from renting a dedicated apartment building.”
That's true!
An Songyu nodded as she thought.
But then she remembered something.
It seems that apart from Liangdi, their family hasn't built many rental buildings these days!
After all, the household that pays the bill is not like an apartment in a residential complex.
The property and its location are not trivial matters.
At the same time, there aren't many properties suitable for either reconstruction or rental.
In addition, people from Jiangcun came to compete.
To date, Anjia has only acquired a few properties.
The size and location of these apartments are clearly unsuitable for use as rental properties.
But they have workers and money.
The old house that was purchased was sold on the local land, or a single-story tiled house or flat-roofed house was demolished and rebuilt.
Let alone a plot of land of forty or fifty square meters, even a plot of land of about thirty square meters can be built into a plot of over one hundred square meters.
In addition, there are currently no restrictions on external cantilever designs.
If we don't take this opportunity to build more space, we won't have another chance like this.
Just when the two had almost made up their minds, An Jianning, who had just arrived after hearing the news, became even more determined about the idea that had been swirling in his mind.
She walked directly in front of them, took a deep breath, and then spoke:
"Ayu, eldest sister-in-law, fourth sister-in-law, fifth sister-in-law."
"Little aunt/little sister is here!" The An family members greeted her.
An Jianning nodded before asking:
"Sister-in-law, Ayu, were you talking about the house with the upper and lower bunks over there in Ayu Rongdi?"
An Songyu and the others nodded slightly.
An Jianning then spoke again, somewhat nervously:
"So, Ah Yu, do you have any plans for the house over there?"
"Plan?" An Songyu asked, somewhat confused, and then subconsciously looked at her aunt.
An Jianning nodded slightly: "Do you have any ideas like opening your own shop, or opening a bakery there with your friends?"
"No, not at all!" An Songyu immediately shook her head.
The foundations of the houses there are all about 150 square meters. According to her requirements at the time, the second and third floors were not partitioned like ordinary houses when the houses were built.
In other words, if needed, shops can be set up not only on the first floor, but also on the second and third floors.
However, it depends on what the person who rents the house thinks in the future.
No sooner had An Songyu conceived this idea than An Jianning suddenly spoke up:
"Ah Yu, can I rent this house to you first?"
"What?" An Songyu, Yuan Qionghua and the other two exclaimed in unison.
After staring at An Jianning in disbelief for a long while, she realized that An Jianning was not joking.
An Songyu and the others quickly began to inquire in detail.
An Jianning smiled somewhat bitterly:
"As you all know, business at our old department store is getting worse and worse these days."
“But we were originally state-owned enterprise employees, even though the department store has long been privatized.”
"But regardless of whether it's the new owner of the department store, they already have a deep connection with our original employer."
"It's still the contract signed when the department store was privately owned."
"They all promised to protect the jobs of us long-term employees."
"However, under such circumstances, the department store's business is much better than before because it is privately owned."
"We, the long-term employees who stayed, have become a mess of accounts."
"This situation applies not only to the boss, but also to ourselves."
Not to mention that her monthly salary has not increased and is often delayed.
Even the jobs she does are becoming increasingly marginalized.
If An Jianning were a little older, she would have accepted her fate.
But she was only forty years old, the prime of her life, so how could she easily give up on her fate?
In addition, last year, due to her trust in her brother's family, she also got on the fast track to getting rich from land expropriation.
This allows her to have other ideas as well.
However, she hadn't been able to make up her mind before.
But after these experiences, An Jianning felt that she might indeed lack a bit of decisiveness in her actions.
"So, you're thinking of starting your own business?" Yuan Qionghua was speechless; her sister-in-law hadn't gotten to the point after all this time.
"This is something you should have done a long time ago!"
"It's been dragging on until now!"
"But you asked about Ayu's house? What, you want to open a small supermarket there?"
"Ah Yu's location is quite good."
"Could a small supermarket of about 150 square meters be opened?"
“So I think it’s not just one floor. The second floor will definitely be used, and the third floor depends on the situation,” An Jianning said, his eyes sparkling.
"There don't seem to be any big shops around here?" An Songyu thought carefully and confirmed with the others.
However, while she occasionally went to check on the construction of the house, the others had never actually done so.
Now, when An Songyu asked, none of them could answer.
But Yuan Qionghua is always one to do what she says:
I don't know if it's there now, but I can go for a walk around there tomorrow morning.
Geng Yulan, who was standing next to An Songyu, asked with a smile, "Are there still workers working over there?"
An Songyu thought for a moment before saying, "Let's ask the cleaning lady! There are no other workers left."
Speaking of which, An Songyu hasn't been there for a while since the house was built.
After all, I never thought I would live there myself.
After the house frame was built, the decoration was done simply.
There wasn't even any furniture inside!
"Then I'll ask when I get back tonight." Geng Yulan actually had more manpower available than An Songyu and the others.
After all, arranging for people to clean and cook is not as complicated as the tasks that An Songyu and the others are responsible for.
Jiang Shanshan listened to what the others were saying and didn't fall behind:
"Let me think... Our store is a bit far from there... but I can ask the store manager to inquire about the business environment there."
"Besides, sister-in-law, if you really want to do it, I can have someone send some fruit over to help you attract customers."
After all, fruit is something that most families cannot completely do without.
At most, the frequency of consumption varies depending on individual lifestyle habits.
With so much support from her family, An Jianning couldn't help but smile.
However, her nose felt a little sore.
To be honest, An Jianning didn't just have this idea today.
Even her husband, when he heard her idea, mostly asked her what her plan was and what she was thinking.
He didn't say whether he supported or not.
However, the obvious unease persisted.
Although his behavior was exceptionally good compared to the outright opposition from his in-laws, it was still much better than the rest of his family.
But compared to her current family... let alone her sisters-in-law, she can't even compare to her nieces.
