Chapter 191 Affecting the Relationship between Brothers and Sisters
Zheng He's eyes were full of longing for the future, and there was a smile on the corners of his lips when he spoke.
Su Wan didn't laugh at him, but nodded in agreement seriously.
"It's right for my cousin to buy a Siheyuan now. If you have the money, you can buy a few more Siheyuans in Beijing."
"We want to work hard to make money now, and then we can find other ways to make money. Remember to take care of your cousin."
"If your current business scope is limited to the capital, I might not be able to help you. But you can open a few more branches. Once you have enough money, you can try to set up a real estate company."
Zheng He heard some time ago that Su Wan wanted to enter the real estate industry.
Of course, he also hoped that he could get a piece of the pie, but he didn't have the ability to do so now. He had limited money, and the registration of a real estate company would cost more than one million, which he couldn't afford at all.
At the end of last year, they each earned more than 600,000 yuan from duck down jackets. Now that things have stabilized, the clothing store can make about 30,000 yuan per month.
Because the store was opened by two people, they planned to open more branches.
They also plan to gradually hand over the store's affairs to someone they trust, so that the other person can devote time to other things.
Obviously, they don't have this ability yet.
"Cousin, we will soon be entering the capital. We may open a clothing store there, but we will choose to open it in different places and try to stagger it."
This is also what Su Wan wanted to say to Zheng He.
She was also worried that this incident would affect the relationship between the siblings.
Zheng He waved his hand. "The capital is so big. Just because I'm your cousin doesn't mean you can't go anywhere. You should do what you have to do. There's no end to making money. Besides, there are others who can make money even without you. If others make money, shouldn't we also make money ourselves?"
He is not yet so crazy as to be so cruel.
Besides, if Su Wan hadn't helped them, how could they have made so much money?
"I also wanted to say this in advance. After all, this involves business competition, and I don't want to become estranged from my cousin."
"Don't ask me about this next time. We are family. Money is just a thing, but love is something money can't buy. You spared no effort to teach us how to make money and never thought of hiding it from us. So don't say such things anymore."
Su Wan nodded.
She said helplessly, "I, as your younger sister, think too much. I apologize to my cousin."
Seeing her playful smile, Zheng He also laughed out loud.
He suddenly asked Su Wan, "Didn't your cousins also sell down jackets last year? They made quite a bit of money. I don't think I've heard anything about them this year."
"My cousins opened a clothing store in Pengcheng. My other cousins initially followed my eldest brother and his team to do construction work. Now they have set up their own construction team and are doing quite well."
"Your cousin and his family should also want to do the renovations, but they have so many brothers that they can only allocate so many people."
They now only know that clothing is the most profitable, and they still think that real estate is not as good as selling clothes.
"I explained the pros and cons to them, and they chose to do renovations, with the option of switching to real estate later."
Real estate is the most profitable industry in the future. Since Su Wan is going to get involved in real estate himself, he naturally hopes that his family can have a piece of the pie.
Zheng He was moved.
He thought about the hundreds of thousands of dollars he still had and asked uncertainly, "Wanwan, tell your cousin the truth, is real estate really that profitable?"
Su Wan didn't hide anything. "Now is the time of reform and opening up, when policies are most favorable. Cousin, you can see that the Pengcheng Special Economic Zone is changing every day, and foreign investors are constantly pouring in. I believe real estate will be one of the hottest industries in the next few decades."
"You're right, but I don't have much money, and I don't seem to have the time to do anything else right now."
"Don't worry, cousin. Take care of what you have now. It doesn't matter if you enter the real estate market two years later. Look, I haven't entered the market yet because I don't have enough funds. I want to wait a little longer."
Hearing that Su Wan didn't have enough money to buy real estate, Zheng He's initially restless heart instantly calmed down.
He sighed and said, "I was anxious. I just didn't want to get too carried away. But Zheng Qi is very confident about the clothing. He said that if it does well, we can earn hundreds of thousands every year."
This was in 1984, when the average wage was less than 800 yuan a year. If you used your annual income of several hundred thousand yuan to buy a siheyuan, you could buy four or five. If you bought ten or eight, you could live your life by counting your money.
But Su Wan couldn't tell them this fact. Buying a courtyard house was fine, but making a large purchase would be too conspicuous.
Moreover, it is really boring to buy a courtyard house and wait for it to appreciate in value.
"Is my cousin anxious because of me?"
"I don't know if this can be considered anxiety, but I just feel like if I work harder, I might be able to catch up with you..."
When Zheng He said this, he seemed a little lacking in confidence.
He knew that Su Wan was very capable, and he had never thought of surpassing her. He just wanted to follow in her footsteps, or at least not be left behind.
These days, he has deeply felt how difficult it is to make money. They earn a lot of money, but their knowledge reserves are so little that they often have to go to the library to read books, especially books on sales.
There are few books on this subject in China, and many of the ones they found were translated from foreign sources.
It is not easy to learn knowledge on your own while managing the clothing store business.
After Zheng He finished speaking, Su Wan smiled with relief.
"Brother, just follow your own ideas and do it step by step. If you can run a good clothing store, it won't be too bad according to what my fourth cousin said. When the funds are accumulated, I will definitely tell you if there is a suitable one."
Su Wan knew that the most profitable areas were the land in Shanghai. The land in Qiongdao before it was divided into provinces would be sold at sky-high prices after the province was established. The electrical appliance market and the communications market were both profitable businesses.
She is not involved much and may find someone to work with.
But she could take her cousins to speculate in land, and build houses and commercial buildings in Qiongdao and Shanghai.
Zheng He secretly thought that he was really thinking too much and was even worried that his cousin had forgotten him.
I guess I didn't tell him that because I didn't have enough funds.
The two chatted for a while before Su Wan told Zheng He that she lived in the Xu family. She also left the address of the Xu family and went for a walk around Wangfujing.
She is looking for a suitable place to open a shop.
