Chapter 200 Buying a house and land
Zhou Min brought all the money in the family, and Liang Qiaoli also took out all her savings.
Even so, it was not enough to open a home appliance store, so Shen Jiale agreed to lend them some.
When choosing a site, Shen Jiale rented some single-room shops.
Many things in the space are not current products and are not suitable for sale, but grains, oils, vegetables, and food are OK.
No matter what time, people can't live without grains and oils. Opening a few grain and oil stores, hiring people to watch the stores, and clearly marking prices, except for rent, is almost a business with no capital. Shen Jiale just needs to wait to count the money.
In addition, Shen Jiale opened a few snack shops and purchased goods from Ruyi Food Factory.
Because the warehouse they rented for selling vegetables had not been returned, Shen Jiale borrowed Wei Dalong and Wei Dahu from Xu Jin to deliver goods to the store.
Having these two strong men delivering goods to the store had a certain intimidating effect. Whether it was the store staff or people looking for a job, they would think twice before doing anything.
On the day the home appliance store opened, Fang Chuanshui and his wife also came to congratulate and bought a TV from the store, saying that the small store had made money.
Liang Qiaoli came to talk to Guan Xiuhua and asked, "How can a small shop make so much money? How long have you opened it? You can buy a TV?"
Guan Xiuhua said happily, "Although our small shop is small, we have a lot of things. I listened to Jiale and bought goods from Ruyi Food Factory. I didn't expect that biscuits were so popular. I have to buy goods every day."
A small shop can make so much money, Liang Qiaoli has more confidence in the newly opened home appliance store.
...
Zhao Meili has been arranged by her mother to go on many blind dates recently, and she doesn't even have time to see her son.
She is also worried that others will know that she has a child. Anyway, that is Fang Chuanshui's son, so he will not be treated unfairly.
Zhao Meili is 25 years old this year, almost 30 years old. People of the same age are married and have children. The men she goes on blind dates with are much older than her and are widowed and have children.
She can only choose men with good jobs from among these people.
But those who are slightly better want to find younger ones.
After many failed blind dates, Zhao's mother found her a 45-year-old man who is the director of a warehouse. He
has an ordinary appearance and a fat body.
Zhao Meili doesn't like him at all.
Zhao's mother said that there are several alternatives behind this one, and she won't agree, because there are many people willing to marry her.
Zhao Meili was very depressed, so she went to stroll around the street casually. When she saw a home appliance store that had just opened, she walked in.
As soon as she came in, she saw many familiar faces.
Thinking of her current situation, she knew that if they recognized her, she would only be laughed at.
Just as she was about to leave, Guan Xiuhua stopped her.
Guan Xiuhua walked towards Zhao Meili with a smile on her face: "Sister Zhao, why didn't you go to see Xuedong this week? He asked about you."
Zhao Meili hurried to leave, lowered her head and said that she was very busy with work recently and would visit again when she had time.
Zhou Min walked up to Liang Qiaoli and said, "Is that the teacher Zhao who abandoned Teacher Fang?"
Liang Qiaoli said, "She stopped being a teacher a long time ago. She abandoned Chuanshui and remarried an older man.
If she could live a peaceful life, it would be fine. But I heard that Chuanshui was admitted to university and divorced. I wonder if she returned to that man."
Zhou Min said, "I think she is worried. I see that she looks very unhappy. She must be unhappy."
Liang Qiaoli did not sympathize with her: "That's her own fault."
There were customers looking at home appliances, and Zhou Min went to greet them.
There were discounts for the first three days of opening. Today, six orders were completed on the first day of opening, selling 3 TVs, 2 radios, and a refrigerator.
Lu Mingqi counted today's income and was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling: "People in Beijing are so rich. If I could sell so much every day, I would be rich!"
Lu Mingfeng said: "Selling things not only requires good quality, but also good service attitude."
Lu Mingqi smiled and said: "That's for sure. People come to buy things to give us money, so my attitude must be good. "
Shen Jiale said: "Even if people don't buy on the spot after seeing the products, they can't change their attitude immediately."
Lu Mingqi nodded: "Home appliances are so valuable, we must spend more time to consider. If we don't buy them this time, we may buy them next time. As long as our service attitude is good, even if the customers don't buy them for the time being, they may introduce relatives and friends to buy them."
Liang Qiaoli praised: "Mingqi, how come you have become so insightful? Did Xiaomin teach you at home?"
Lu Mingqi scratched his head embarrassedly: "Yes."
...
When Lu Mingqi came to Beijing, Liang Qiaoli specially rented a house for them to live in.
After the home appliance store opened, the couple was worried about so many valuable home appliances, so they moved into the store as a family.
The home appliance store is big, more than enough for a family of four to live in.
Liang Qiaoli also has a share in the store, and usually goes to the store to help after Lu Yongfu drops the children off.
Since Lu Mingfeng hired a driver, he would go around when he had free time.
He still remembered that Shen Jiale wanted a street, and when he saw a suitable location, he bought a house by the road.
Shen Jiale used the house to sell food, oil and snacks.
In the past six months, Lu Mingfeng has bought eight houses and a piece of wasteland.
Lu Yongfu and Liang Qiaoli don't understand their son's behavior.
Buying a house can be used to do business or collect rent, but what's the point of buying a piece of wasteland.
For this reason, Liang Qiaoli even talked to Shen Jiale alone.
"Jiale, you have to manage Mingfeng and stop wasting money on useless land. It's not easy to make money and you have four children."
Shen Jiale said, "Mom, buying land is also an investment. When the land price goes up in the future, you will make money."
Liang Qiaoli didn't believe it: "How much can a piece of wasteland go up? I'll buy it this time. I'll take time to open up the wasteland and grow some food on it."
Seeing that only his wife supported him, Lu Mingfeng was particularly moved.
"Thank you for believing me, my wife. The current situation is very good. The economy is developing rapidly. There are business opportunities everywhere. Beijing will definitely attract more people. When
there are more people, we need to solve the housing problem. The better the development, the more people will do business. The existing houses are not enough to live in. We must build new houses. I bought this land at a very low price. I will definitely be able to multiply it several times in the future and make a fortune."
Shen Jiale looked at Lu Mingfeng with admiration in his eyes. He is indeed a big boss with a long-term vision.
When Lu Mingfeng told her about buying the land, she remembered that the wasteland would be developed into a commercial area in the future, and every inch
of land would be worth a lot of money. Nearly a hundred acres of wasteland, not everyone has the courage to buy it.
The land has been bought, and it is impossible to do nothing and wait for the price to rise.
Shen Jiale suggested planting fruit trees on the wasteland.
This point coincided with Lu Mingfeng's idea. He happily held Shen Jiale's face and kissed her hard several times.
"Wife, we really understand each other."
