This price isn't low, but fortunately, storefronts aren't very large these days.
The largest storefront is only about 30 square meters, and a single room costs about 30,000 yuan.
However, many storefronts are only a dozen square meters or so, which would cost between 10,000 and 20,000 yuan.
With her money in hand, Lin Wei bought seven shops of various sizes.
She didn't stop until she had spent all the money in her savings account.
Lin Wei bought everything she wanted, but Lin Xiaomeng was furious when she heard about it.
"Lin Wei, this is such a big deal, and you didn't even discuss it with your family. Over 100,000 yuan, and you just spent it all like that?"
Lin Wei pretended to be obedient and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, it's all spent."
After saying that, she handed the storefront property certificate of Lin Xiaomeng and Zhang Min's clothing store to her, "I've bought your store. You don't need to pay rent anymore, you can just use it directly."
"No, it's not about the rent, it's about you spending so much money at once."
Lin Xiaomeng felt a rush of blood to her head. "Weiwei, why did you buy so many storefronts? What if they become unsellable..."
Lin Xiaomeng was a little agitated, and the old house's poor soundproofing attracted Zhang Min from next door, who rushed over upon hearing the news.
"Sister Meng, Sister Meng."
Without waiting for a response, Zhang Min pushed open the courtyard gate and walked in. "I could hear you throwing a tantrum from next door. What's wrong? Weiwei is so sensible, what's there to be angry about?"
“This kid had about 300,000 yuan in capital. He spent 150,000 yuan with Jize Investment, and used the remaining 150,000 yuan to buy a shop.”
Zhang Min was slightly taken aback, never expecting Lin Wei to have so much money.
"Haven't I been completely drained?" Auntie was a little angry.
“It’s not that I don’t want you to buy, but you should still be more careful with your money. If you don’t keep any of it, what if there’s an emergency…”
Lin Wei explained, "Isn't summer vacation coming up again? While you guys are busy with your own businesses, I'm planning to work with my classmates to create something new. Living expenses won't be a problem, and the burger shop will be opening in August. I believe we'll break even soon."
"You're too confident. What if you lose money?"
"No, we use the same raw materials that we get directly from the factories for our hamburgers, but at half the price. We still make a lot of money, so how could we possibly lose money?"
Zhang Min nodded repeatedly as she listened, then asked, "But why are you buying so many storefronts?"
Lin Wei whispered, "I had Ji Ze check it out. The storefronts I bought are all in the demolition planning area. The same goes for the clothing store you're running now. It's also in the demolition planning area and will probably be demolished in the second half of the year. Once it's demolished, won't the money come back to me in double the amount?"
Lin Xiaomeng originally thought Lin Wei wanted to start her own business, but she never expected that this was her true intention.
"You silly girl, how can you take advantage of loopholes like that?"
"Why can't they crawl through? They just don't have money. If they had money, anyone would crawl through like that."
Zhang Min immediately became interested upon hearing this. "Is this news reliable? If so, I have some funds on hand, and I can afford to buy two or three storefronts."
"Of course it's true. It will definitely be demolished in the second half of the year. Even if it's not demolished in the second half of the year, it will be demolished at the beginning of next year at the latest. I said before that this area of buildings cannot keep up with the development of Jiangcheng. Sooner or later, it will be demolished and rebuilt throughout the city. However, the demolition will definitely be carried out in sections, one section at a time. Otherwise, the government will not have the money."
“If Aunt Zhang is interested, she doesn’t necessarily have to buy storefronts. I’ve bought some, and Jize has bought some. We’ve bought almost all the good locations. You can try to find some bargains. But buying a yard is the same. Houses like ours with small yards have a large area, and the vacant land from demolished yards is also counted in the area. It’s quite cost-effective in the long run.”
Seeing that Zhang Min was really thinking about it seriously, Lin Xiaomeng became a little worried.
"That's what the girl said, you don't actually believe it, do you?"
“Why not take it seriously?” Zhang Min said, “When have we ever suffered a loss following this girl? Besides, if this news were false, she wouldn’t have invested all her savings, and you wouldn’t be so angry. So why shouldn’t I consider it?”
"What if we lose money?" Lin Xiaomeng directly gave the worst possible outcome.
"Even if we lose money, we still have a clothing store. We have a house to live in and a clothing store to earn a living. What's there to worry about? At worst, we can go out and sell boxed lunches. You can never succeed in business without hard work and perseverance."
'Slap, slap, slap'
Lin Wei couldn't help but applaud Zhang Min for these words.
"Aunt Zhang's remarks could be included in the entrepreneurial rhetoric of future billionaire business tycoons. Aunt Zhang's courageous and fearless spirit should not be confined to a small clothing store. She should open a factory, a clothing factory, establish her own brand, her own company, and become the leader in the clothing industry."
Seeing that Lin Wei was going too far, Lin Xiao and Meng immediately interrupted her.
"Alright, that's too much flattery. Does your Aunt Zhang ever want to live a normal life again?"
Unexpectedly, Lin Wei's plan was truly etched in Zhang Min's mind, and she even began to seriously consider and plan for it afterward.
-
The storefront had already been purchased, so there was no way to return it. Lin Xiaomeng complained a few times, and then Zhang Min persuaded her to let the matter rest.
The next day, taking advantage of the fact that no one was in the store, Zhang Min slipped away and went to a bookstore to buy several books on clothing design.
Lin Xiaomeng noticed something was wrong and said, "Xiao Zhang, you wouldn't..."
“I heard Weiwei talk about it yesterday. I think it’s feasible to open a clothing factory and establish a brand. Of course, I didn’t dream of becoming the leader in the clothing industry, but the rest doesn’t seem that difficult. I want to give it a try.”
Lin Xiaomeng had a headache. "Weiwei just said it casually. That girl seems to know everything, but she's definitely not an expert, since that's not what she studied."
“But she explained it so clearly… No, I don’t understand this at all. When Weiwei gets home, I’ll ask her carefully how to do it.”
As for now, she needs to work hard to learn about clothing so that she doesn't end up knowing less than Lin Wei, otherwise she really won't be able to do it.
Sure enough, as soon as Lin Wei returned on Saturday night, she was taken to the store.
"Weiwei, didn't you mention opening a clothing factory and establishing a brand last week? Do you remember?"
Lin Wei was taken aback, then replied, "I remember, what's wrong?"
"I've been looking at information about clothing all week, but I don't understand it. If I want to start a brand and open a clothing factory, what should I do?"
Lin Wei was stunned, completely unexpected that Zhang Min had taken her words to heart.
"Aunt Zhang, do you want to start your own brand?"
"Yes, is it difficult? Can I do it?"
"It's possible, but Aunt Zhang, are you really planning to do it? I'm not trying to discourage you, but the clothing industry is extremely profitable, and this is very lucrative. However, clothing is all about style and trends. If you do it well, you can succeed quickly, but if you don't, it's all for nothing."
