Chapter 102: Location Selection

“The central streets have the most foot traffic, but because of the area’s limitations, there are basically no large storefronts like you would like.”

"The one you want is almost half the size of a factory. No one builds houses that big. But in the suburbs, there are those rough-finished bungalows, but the decoration is very simple. Although they are cheap, the subsequent decoration costs are also very high."

Lin Jianyan's eyes lit up, "That's it, I'm not afraid of renovation. No matter how good the house is, I still have to redecorate it in the end."

"Which district is it in? Come on, take me to see it."

"Okay, get in the car and I'll take you there."

The agent smiled politely on the surface, but sighed in his heart.

He thought that the first place that a clothing business would want to rent would be in the central district, after all, there is a large flow of people. He didn't expect that Mr. Lin would want such a large location. There are some in the main city, but they are doing well and there is no way they would be sold. If he wants one that meets his requirements, he would have to buy a piece of land and build it himself.

It took us nearly an hour to get there. It wasn't far, after all, it was a small place. But it was far from the main city area, and the traffic on the streets was not as big as in the main city area.

Lin Jianyan got out of the car and fell silent as he looked at the house in front of him. Zhao Dalong, who was following behind him, was also surprised, "Is this also considered a house? It's just a rough-finished house? There are no doors or windows!"

The agent coughed awkwardly and said, "The man of this house is in debt from gambling. He mortgaged the house to us when it was only half built. His wife divorced him and she is nowhere to be found. He has never come to redeem the house, so we have no choice but to take it."

Fearing that he might be dissatisfied, the agent quickly said, "Don't think that it has nothing now, but it meets your requirements, and it is a two-story building. As long as you buy it, you can do whatever you want with it."

"If you're really not satisfied, there's another one. It's a little bigger than this place, but it's a single storey. It's simply decorated, has doors and windows, and the interior is painted white. It's a little cheaper than this one."

Lin Jianyan was quite satisfied. Having nothing in the house made it easier for him to tinker with it. Besides, the house had two floors, so he had more room to tinker with it.

Lin Jianyan immediately decided, "No need, let's just leave it at that. Let's go back and sign the contract."

The agent immediately smiled happily, "Okay, okay." The shabby house was finally sold. Not to mention how much commission he could get, the main thing was that he finally didn't have to listen to the boss's meetings anymore and didn't have to be scolded anymore.

After returning and signing the contract, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

Agent: "Mr. Lin, please keep this contract. I wish you great success."

Lin Jianyan smiled and said, "Thank you."

The agent suddenly thought of something and asked, "When will your house be renovated? Do you need a decoration company? We have a cooperation, if you need it, I can call them over to ask for you."

Lin Jianyan thought for a moment and nodded, "That's fine. Since it's already available, I don't have to look for someone. Get me a pen and paper so I can draw a picture."

"Okay, I'll go right away. Please wait a moment." The agent smiled happily. Another big deal was about to come his way. He liked doing business with these generous and wealthy people.

The people from the decoration company came very quickly. They arrived before Lin Jianyan had finished drawing the picture.

The leader was a middle-aged man in a suit and tie, followed closely by several workers.

When they arrived at the agency, he quickly introduced them to each other, "This is Mr. Lin, Mr. Lin, and this is Lao Zhou. You can tell him if you have any requests."

Lin Jianyan smiled and extended his hand, "Hello, Lao Zhou, please sit down for a while. I haven't finished the drawing yet."

When Lao Zhou heard what Lin Jianyan said, he first subconsciously looked at the hand he extended, then was stunned for a moment, as if he did not expect Lin Jianyan to be so proactive and warm.

Then, Lao Zhou quickly wiped his hands on his clothes, with a hint of embarrassment and nervousness, and then he carefully reached out to hold Lin Jinyan's hand, but he just touched it and then left, as if he was afraid that the dust or rough touch on his hands would make the other person uncomfortable.

"You can start painting first. We will wait here for a while. There is no rush."

Lin Jianyan was almost at the end of the painting, so he sped up and finished it in five minutes. Then he looked up and communicated with Lao Zhou and the others.

Lin Jianyan put the blueprint on the table for them to see. "This is the blueprint I drew. You can decorate according to this style. There are some details marked on it. Take a look. If it's ok, we can start tomorrow."

Lin Jianyan called out, "Dalong."

Zhao Dalong heard his call, stood up from the stool beside him, and walked over, "Brother."

Lin Jianyan: "I'll leave this matter to you. Please follow up and take a look at the drawings."

Zhao Dalong: “Yes.”

Several renovation workers picked up the drawings and discussed it carefully. The final result was that although it was a bit troublesome, it would be a big project if the budget was sufficient.

Lao Zhou said: "Mr. Lin, we'll take this job, but the budget is this..."

Lin said: "Use the best, don't worry about the budget, add more people and try to be faster. If possible, you can sign the contract and pay the deposit now."

Old Zhou was immediately excited and said, "Okay, okay, we can sign the contract now."

After signing the contract, Lin Jianyan paid the deposit and was seen off by several people.

He doesn't have to worry about other things. Zhao Dalong is watching there, and if there is anything, he will come and talk to him in person.

A week later, the staff dormitory was completely completed, and Lin Jianyan followed Liu Huawei to take a look.

The school dormitory is a two-story building with a very spacious and bright space. The basic facilities inside have been set up. The four-person room, bunk beds, tables and chairs have all been installed. The rest is just waiting for the employees to move in and settle in.

Lin Jianyan nodded with satisfaction, "That's great. How much do you think is a suitable rent?"

Liu Huawei responded quickly, as if he had anticipated this and had already prepared a perfect response plan.

"160, including water and electricity. Uncle San's place is 150 a month, not including water and electricity. Although you can cook, you don't have the time to do it. Our 160 includes water and electricity, and you can eat in the factory. It's definitely more affordable than his place."

Lin Jianyan checked the rooms and felt relieved to see that he had arranged everything. "You have arranged it very well. I feel relieved to leave the factory to you."

"I have already chosen the address of the studio and am currently renovating it. I think it will be completed soon. By then, I won't come to the factory often, and the factory will be completely handed over to you."

Liu Huawei said excitedly: "Boss, don't worry, I will never let you down! Then I would like to congratulate you on your fortune!"

Lin Jianyan smiled and said, "Thank you very much for your kind words."
