Chapter 43 Storefront, Used Cars



He had already pre-deposited 100 yuan when he applied for the meal card, so he could use it immediately.

When they arrived, the volunteer senior had already given them a brief introduction to the school and the approximate location of the buildings.

Tianzhou University is very large; it might take two or three hours to walk around the entire campus. Therefore, it has several canteens in different locations, divided into four canteens: east, west, south, and north.

The dormitory area is near the back gate, and there is a food street nearby, which is also a place that students often visit. It is popular among students because it is close by and has a wide variety of food.

Liu Yihang first took his parents to the nearby East Canteen for a simple meal. The three of them each ordered a bowl of noodles with minced meat sauce, which cost a total of three yuan. It wasn't expensive, but the taste was indeed just average.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Yihang led them out of the school's back gate and headed straight for the food street to investigate potential business opportunities.

Outside the back gate, there is a long street market, but most of the shops are not open. Summer vacation has just ended, and the students have not yet returned.

Liu Yihang accidentally saw the shop numbers and was delighted. Wasn't the name of this street the same as the shop name that the system had rewarded him with?

Could it be that the storefront is on this street?

He hurriedly searched through the rooms one by one, until he reached No. 42 Houhai Street.

"System, is this the shop?"

"Yes, host." The system gave an affirmative answer.

"Heaven is on my side! I have a shop now!" Liu Yihang grinned from ear to ear.

The property deed and keys to the shop are currently lying in his tiny space. Even with his parents here, he still needs an excuse to make the shop appear legitimate.

The group strolled around the food street for a bit, but finding it uninteresting, they returned to Tianzhou University.

Liu Xiangdong and Lin Guihua were eager to explore Tianzhou University. This time, they took the opportunity of dropping off their son, as it would be difficult for them to come in and stroll around again in the future.

They had never seen such a beautiful place in their lives.

Liu Yihang had many things to do, so he didn't go.

He booked a room for his parents at the school's guesthouse and arranged to meet there at 5 p.m. before they parted ways.

After leaving, Liu Yihang quickly arrived at the food street and successfully opened the door of storefront number 42 using the key in the miniature space.

The house has a ceiling height of more than four meters and has been divided into two floors. There is a simple staircase next to it leading upstairs.

The interior furnishings suggest that someone used to run a restaurant there, with some old tables, chairs, and benches left behind, and some items left in the kitchen that no one wants.

The entire floor area, including the kitchen and restrooms, is about 70 or 80 square meters, which is not large, but with proper design, it is more than enough to open a small shop.

What interested him was the second floor, this space that had appeared out of nowhere.

As Liu Yihang climbed the stairs, he discovered that the second floor had been divided into two small living rooms, a small living room, and even a toilet, which was very convenient.

The room was probably used by the previous owner, as it still had a simple wooden frame bed.

There is also an old wooden sofa and coffee table in the living room outside.

He was extremely satisfied with the house the system had given him. He could do business downstairs and live upstairs, saving commuting time and avoiding the hassle of traveling back and forth. It was also very convenient.

The problem of my parents renting a place has also been solved, which is perfect.

Liu Yihang walked around the house with great joy, thinking about how to redesign the layout and how to tell his parents about the house.

He quickly came up with an idea.

Looking at my sweaty clothes, I realized I had to wash up tonight and buy some necessities and clothes.

After locking the door, Liu Yihang went to the volunteer service area and asked a kind senior student, "Hello, senior, is there anywhere around here where I can buy clothes, shoes, socks, and toiletries?"

This senior student was incredibly kind-hearted; she probably noticed his worn-out clothes and assumed he wasn't in good financial shape.

So she kindly said, "There are a few big shopping malls around here, but I think they're too expensive. Why don't we go to Sanhe Street instead?"

It's a wholesale market where you can find everything from clothes and shoes to daily necessities and small commodities, all at prices half that of department stores.

There's also a used bicycle shop there. Our school is so big that it's inconvenient to walk far to class sometimes, so many students buy bicycles to get around. Used bicycles are much cheaper than new ones, so you can check it out, junior.

You can get there by taking the bus from the bus stop right outside Sanhe Street; the fare is only 30 cents.

The senior student explained it in great detail.

"I understand, thank you, senior." Liu Yihang thanked her and went straight out the door, heading towards Sanhe Street.

It was still early, and his parents would be there in at least two hours, so he decided to go and look around first.

It's just five bus stops to Sanhe Street.

Previously, it was all shantytowns, full of various wholesale businesses, and divided into different areas. They sold not only daily necessities, clothes, shoes and socks, but also fresh meat, fruits and dried goods.

It's basically a large wholesale base.

The people inside all came to pick up goods on all sorts of vehicles, including bicycles, motorcycles, and tricycles.

Liu Yihang thought, "I should get myself a bike first and then go for a ride."

After asking a woman for directions, Liu Yihang headed straight for the used car market that his senior had mentioned.

After turning several corners, we finally arrived at the market, which was also located in a shantytown. The huge shed was filled with all kinds of vehicles.

Most of the vehicles are bicycles, but there are also tricycles and motorcycles.

After some consideration, Liu Yihang decided that he needed a bicycle to go to school, and his parents needed a tricycle for their business, so he would buy one for each of them.

We don't need the motorcycle for now; we'll buy it when we need it later.

He stepped forward and directly told the bald boss what he needed.

"Boss, do you have any bicycles or tricycles that are about 80% new?"

"Of course there are, but the price will definitely be a bit higher than others," the bald man said, looking him up and down.

"Show me the goods first, then tell me an honest price. If it's right, I'll take it right away."

"Alright!" Seeing that he really wanted it, the boss quickly had his men bring over two cars.

They were all in 80% new condition, as he had requested, with only minor signs of use. Liu Yihang looked them over and squeezed the tires.

I went up and tried riding for a while.

These are all good items, much better to ride than the old-fashioned bicycles and second-hand tricycles they rode in Zhoushan.

"Boss, what's the price?"

Seeing that he was quite satisfied, the boss made a three-pointer: "Young man, if you really want it, give me three hundred yuan."

Liu Yihang felt it was a bit expensive; a brand new bicycle was only a little over a hundred yuan, and this pedicab was probably only around three hundred yuan at most.

The shop owner is asking for 300; I might as well add a little more money and buy a new one.

Previously, a used tricycle in Zhoushan, along with pots, pans, a gas stove, and other kitchenware, only cost 200 yuan.
