Chapter 310: Eight hundred thousand was spent!

"If you want a bigger one, then it should be around 500 square meters or more."

"Private rooms on the second floor, scattered tables on the first floor, or private rooms on both the first and second floors, large private rooms on the second floor for more than ten people, small private rooms for four or six people on the first floor, and scattered tables."

I had dinner at Soho Jin Hotel and inspected the interior layout.

Gu Jianhua listened, "How many small private rooms should be built on the first floor?"

Su He, "Six will be enough. There are ten large private rooms on the second floor. I think the prices in this store are getting more expensive every year."

"Let's just buy the shop if we find one that's suitable. The money will just sit there anyway."

"Okay, buy it and go to the Housing Authority to check it out on Saturday and Sunday." Gu Jianhua was persuaded.

To open a hot pot restaurant or a shabu-shabu restaurant, one must find a place with a lot of traffic. Su He finally chose a shop of more than 500 square meters to nearly 600 square meters.

There are two floors: the first floor and the second floor.

The asking price is 120,000.

It has increased nearly six times compared to when I bought the billiard hall two years ago!

It's rising really fast.

Gu Jianhua heard this and said, "Wife, aren't you going to open a western restaurant in the future? Why don't you buy the western restaurant shop as well?"

This is rising too fast.

Su He shook his head, "No, no, no, let's go to the hot pot restaurant that sells lamb cooked on ice first."

Gu Jianhua refused to listen. "I think, wife, we can buy it. It's rising too fast."

Su He thought for a while and said, "Let's buy a courtyard house."

Gu Jianhua, "Siheyuan? I can buy the Siheyuan, and I can also buy your western restaurant and shop."

"We only need to keep 500,000 in reserve. You can buy anything you want with the remaining 500,000."

Su He, "Comrade Gu Jianhua, you need to calm down."

Gu Jianhua said, "Go ahead and buy it, wife. We have so many shops anyway. If you spend 300,000 or 400,000 yuan now, you will have enough by the end of the year."

“That’s true.”

"Then I'll see if there's a suitable shop. If there is, I'll buy it."

Su He originally planned to buy a shop selling ice-cooked lamb first, and then look around for courtyard houses and buy one if he found one that suited him.

Who knew I couldn't stop watching it.

Compared with the price of later generations, this courtyard house is very cheap. A courtyard house with two entrances costs about 100,000 yuan, no more than 150,000 yuan.

Su He looked at several units and finally decided to buy four first.

She has four children, one set for each.

Spending more than 600,000 yuan must be discussed with Gu Jianhua. Gu Jianhua didn't know the price of courtyard houses in later generations, and he was very puzzled by his wife's behavior.

"Wife, you only need to buy one yard. Let's buy a shop. We won't live in the yard even if we buy it."

Su He, "Jianhua, do you believe me? The prices of these courtyard houses in Beijing will rise sharply in the future. We don't know what business we are going to do yet, so we can just buy one or two from the shop."

"Let's buy it next year. Otherwise, do we have to rent it out after we buy it?"

Gu Jianhua compromised and said, "What about daughter-in-law? Why don't you buy two courtyard houses and two shops?"

"I bought the courtyard house for the eldest and second child first, and then the courtyard house for the third and fourth child, and so on, since they were born a few years later."

Su He thought about it and concluded that the prices of shops would indeed increase faster than those of courtyard houses in the future. In the 1990s, a shop cost over a million dollars, while a courtyard house could be purchased for only thirty or four hundred thousand dollars.

So I said, "Okay, let's buy two sets first."

Gu Jianhua, "Wife, just leave 200,000 yuan for the family, and use the rest to buy a shop."

The price of this shop is rising too fast. He thinks that if it keeps rising like this, it won’t cost a million to buy a shop in a few years!

Su He was shocked. "We just spent 800,000 yuan just like that?"

Gu Jianhua nodded firmly, "Buy it, wife."

"Okay, since you've spoken, I'll go look at the house next Sunday."

The ice-boiled lamb shop cost 102,000 yuan, and the two courtyard houses cost 280,000 yuan, totaling exactly 400,000 yuan.

There are still four hundred thousand.

I bought three shops in Soho for 400,000 yuan.

A two-story shop like Bingzhuyang, with a large area of ​​about 1,000 square meters, cost 200,000 yuan.

The other two are storefronts, but they are both quite large, about 400 square meters, and the total cost was 200,000 yuan.

With the deeds to these properties in her hands, Su He was afraid that someone would rob her of two-thirds of her property!

Gu Jianhua was very satisfied with this. He took the deed and looked at it, "Wife, we now have six empty shops."

"So far, we have booked a coffee shop, a cake shop, and ice-cooked lamb."

"I want to open a Western restaurant, and there are two left." Su He said.

Gu Jianhua, "Yes, you want to open a western restaurant, and these two are left."

"This one is quite large, but it's not suitable for a supermarket. It has two floors. Supermarkets are usually one floor."

Su He, "Dear, let's think about this later. Anyway, we have already bought the store, so we can decide what to open later."

"Let's do it step by step. Next year, we'll open the cake shop and coffee shop, and the year after, we'll open your iced lamb restaurant."

"OK."

Gu Jianhua couldn't think of what to do with the remaining two shops for a while.

But like his wife said, the store has already been bought, so he can take his time to think about what kind of business to do, and the price will not go up.

They bought two courtyard houses and four large shops without telling their elders. It was just their business.

October is over and November is here.

Winter has arrived in the north.

Chen Juan and Zhao Qinglin have been working in the bakery for almost half a year.

I have saved hundreds of yuan now, plus my previous savings, I have nearly a thousand yuan, not too much, not too little, just enough to start a small business.

Although Gu Jianhua is an amateur and not a proper chef, after several years of training and study, he has become a great chef and can now cook home-cooked meals with ease.

Can work as a chef in a small hotel.

Therefore, Zhao Qinglin and Gu Jianhua learned a lot in half a year, and at least they had no problem opening a bakery.

However, Zhao Qinglin and Chen Juan had different opinions.

Chen Juan wanted to go out and sell clothes on the street, and Zhao Qinglin wanted to open a restaurant.

Chen Juan said, "If your restaurant business is good, I won't say anything. But if it's bad, you will lose everything."

"I sell clothes on a street stall. I don't occupy anything. I buy the goods from my elder brother and his wife. If I can't sell them, I can return them to my elder brother and his wife. At least I don't lose money."

"The Red Army came here to sell clothes, my elder brother and his wife came here to sell clothes, and we also sell clothes. We all sell clothes. What do my uncle and aunt think?"

"All of us relatives have come to Beijing to steal my aunt's business."

Zhao Qinglin didn't want to sell clothes, but his elder brother and sister-in-law were selling clothes, so he also went to sell clothes. What was this? Not only was he stealing his aunt's business, he was also stealing his elder brother and sister-in-law's business.

Chen Juan said, "You are mentally ill. Beijing is so big and crowded. We are going out to sell clothes to compete for business. There are so many people setting up stalls. Even if we don't set up stalls, others will!"

"So if you sell stuffed buns, you won't steal your uncle's business if you open a restaurant?"

"Anyway, I'm telling you, I'm not opening a restaurant. I've already told my sister-in-law that I want to sell clothes. You can open one if you want, but don't cry if you lose money."

Zhao Qing was angry, "No, it's not even open yet, are you cursing me?"

"I'm not cursing you. I'm telling you the risks. Besides, your cooking skills are not up to standard yet. You can't open a restaurant. If you want to open one, you can learn from your uncle for a year or so." Chen Juan snorted coldly.

She thought this man was a fool. Running a restaurant was time-consuming and laborious, and it was not as profitable as running a clothing store. Selling clothes was so easy!

Zhao Qinglin didn't want to argue. "Alright, alright, let's talk about this next year. We can't do anything this year anyway."

“I will still be selling clothes next year,” said Chen Juan.
