Chapter 145 Chapter 145 Impulse
"No, no, there are several places we like, but this one is the most promising, so we brought you here first." Zhao Ruyuan came to her senses and felt a little scared.
Zhao Ruyuan was very glad that she invited her sister and brother-in-law to come and see it today, otherwise they would really have a chance of buying it.
She and Lin Guohao really don’t watch the news and don’t have much time to watch it.
Normally they have to look after the shrimp pond, take care of three children, and farm at home.
Even with the help of my parents-in-law, they are still the main labor force in the family and they do most of the work.
Every day I work as soon as I open my eyes. It's good enough if I have time to eat, take a bath and go to the toilet. We have a TV at home, but most of the time it is watched by the elderly and children.
At most, they would check the weather forecast and the 8 or 9 o'clock TV series.
Sometimes when they have a little more time, they would rather sleep than watch TV. Sometimes during the hottest days of summer, it is too hot in the afternoon to work outside, so they go home to rest and watch TV, and then they fall asleep unconsciously.
In the countryside, not many people buy newspapers to read. The biggest use of newspapers in the countryside is to paste them on walls, windows, and tables.
It’s a less busy time of the year, probably after each batch of crayfish is sold and before the new batch starts to be raised, when there may not be that much work.
But it’s only relatively busy when there aren’t that many. The crayfish farming has come to a temporary halt, but there is still work to be done in the fields.
Zhao Ruyuan took them to see a few other places, but Zhao Ruyue felt that they were not good enough and advised them, "You should look for more."
At first glance, the houses they found seemed to be fine, but upon closer inspection, they all had hidden dangers and their prices were not affordable compared to the surrounding areas.
Zhao Ruyue suspected that the seller or the agent was waiting for someone like her sister and brother-in-law to take over the sale. She heard her sister repeating what the agent and some sellers said, and she felt that they implied that "you have found a treasure by buying this shop."
"You should change an agent. This one is not good enough. You need to ask more questions and look around more. Don't make a decision too hastily."
Zhao Ruyuan and his wife nodded with lingering fear: "Okay, we will look for it again tomorrow."
After such a blow today, their previous eagerness to buy a shop and open a store as soon as possible has calmed down.
Although I still want to buy a suitable shop as soon as possible, I am not as urgent and impatient as before.
"Sister, can you help us again? I'm really scared by this series of questions, please~" Zhao Ruyuan hugged her second sister's arm. She was already an adult but still acted like a spoiled child like when she was a child.
Lin Guohao didn't dare to say a word. Thinking about her loud and gruff voice when she got angry and yelled at him at home, and comparing it with the way she was now acting like a little girl in front of her second sister, speaking in a pinched voice and acting coquettishly, he really wanted to shed a few bitter tears.
Fortunately, she only behaved like this in front of her second sister. Neither her father-in-law nor her mother-in-law had ever enjoyed such treatment.
Thinking of this, Lin Guohao didn't feel so sad anymore.
Zhao Ruyue didn't notice the difference, she was used to it.
"No problem, but you have to synchronize your time with me, otherwise my plans will be disrupted." She has a lot of things to do on a daily basis.
As for what to do every day, Zhao Ruyue would integrate the situation of her family and make arrangements in advance.
If she adds a new to-do item, she has to re-plan and arrange it, and a lot of time needs to be adjusted, so she hopes that there won't be too many surprises when implementing the plan.
It’s best not to make all the arrangements yourself and find that when you plan to go out to look at shops together, others have something urgent to do and can’t go.
This messed up her plans and she had to make new arrangements.
Unless the other person himself or his family is sick and cannot leave, she can accept it. Otherwise, don't expect her to help next time.
Her sister hasn't had such a problem yet, so Zhao Ruyue is still happy to help her.
After the two agreed on a time, Zhao Ruyuan and Lin Guohao accompanied Zhao Ruyue and her husband to learn about the construction company in the provincial capital.
Building a warehouse is not like building a house in the countryside. To build a house, they can just ask their relatives and friends in their town for help. Because they are all from the same place, there are only a few styles of houses that can be built, and the work that needs to be done is basically the same, and people all have experience.
But warehouses are different. They need to be built with a bias towards the characteristics of the stored items.
If you want to use it for your own use, you have to build it according to the characteristics of the things you store in your home.
If you want to rent out a warehouse, you must first understand the surrounding market, what kinds of goods require more warehouses, and try to build it according to the surrounding demand, so that the warehouse can be rented out as soon as possible.
Although there are general warehouses, different products have different requirements for warehouses. If there is a choice, merchants often prefer specialized warehouses.
It’s just that specialized warehouses have always been in short supply. After all, general warehouses have a wider range of customers to choose from and only prefer one type of merchandise. For warehouse owners, the risk of vacancy is relatively high.
Like many people, Zhao Ruyue didn't know all this before. After she and Ning Shaoming bought the land, they went to the provincial capital to consult professionals and searched a lot of information on the Internet before they found out.
She was also surprised to learn that there would be shortages in warehouses.
Originally, they just wanted to build a warehouse and rent it out instead of letting the land sit idle. As long as it was maintained regularly and her family didn't run the business at a loss, it would be fine.
I didn't expect that after I got to know it in depth, I found that this business is quite profitable, but ordinary people have no use for it, so not many people pay attention to this industry.
Zhao Ruyue still has to open a convenience store. She can't just rely on renting out the warehouse to make a profit. Running a convenience store is much easier than finding customers for a warehouse.
She planned to divide the land into a small area close to the road and build a small bungalow.
The small bungalow can be built quickly and can be moved in as soon as it is dry, without even any decoration.
Many people now build their own houses in the same way. After the main structure is built, they have no money for decoration. They install water and electricity, but don’t even scrape cement on the walls. The brick walls are left exposed. They move in directly into the unfinished house and slowly save money for decoration.
This small bungalow does not need to be renovated at first. First, scrape cement on the walls so that the dust does not fall off so seriously. Then it can be used as a temporary dormitory for the workers who come to build the warehouse.
After the warehouse is built and the workers leave, you just need to simply paint the walls, whitewash the floor, lay tiles, and renovate the toilet, and it will be a new house.
In this way, when customers are looking for the warehouse, the convenience store can be opened.
Zhao Ruyue and Ning Shaoming discussed it and they divided the work among themselves. When Zhao Ruyue went to the provincial capital to accompany her sister to look at shops, she also went to learn about the construction company, the provincial capital's market, and the conditions of various warehouses.
After she helped Zhao Ruyuan find a suitable shop, it didn't take long for her to get to know the warehouse rental market and the main types of businesses that rented warehouses in the provincial capital.
Finally, Zhao Ruyue decided to focus on medicinal materials when building the warehouse.
The economy here is not very good, but the natural conditions are excellent and the quality of the medicinal materials produced is very good. It is one of the better developed industries in the province.
The demand for warehouses is relatively large and the requirements are not low.
The initial investment may be a little more than she expected, but in the later stages she doesn’t have to worry about the warehouse not being rented out and being vacant.
After Zhao Ruyue completed these preliminary work, it was Ning Shaoming's turn.
Although I am not happy to admit it, there are indeed more men in construction companies nowadays. Their quality is not very good and they tend to look down on others. It is very difficult for female owners to communicate with them.
Zhao Ruyue felt that it was a waste of time to communicate with them. After talking for a long time, she might end up saying: You don’t understand this, I’d better talk to your husband.
Not infuriating enough.
I was so angry that I asked for someone else to come, but I was told that women just like to be fussy.
It would be better to let Ning Shaoming communicate from the beginning, so that the problem can be solved once and for all, and she doesn't have to worry about it at all.
She can't change the current environment, so she might as well spend her time on work that interests her.
As for Su Shengnan, the company is developing better than she had originally expected.
Su Shengnan plans to open a branch in the provincial capital, where the market is broader and the company has a greater need for female masters.
Zhao Ruyue’s training speed can hardly keep up with the speed of increasing the company’s business volume.
Now Su Shengnan has to stay in the company to train employees. The company has salesmen who specialize in attracting business, so she no longer has to run out frequently to attract clients.
Recently, they are planning to open a branch in the provincial capital. After helping her sister find a shop and finishing the preliminary work of her own warehouse, Zhao Ruyue finally had a break for a while, and now she has to go to the provincial capital again.
Su Shengnan heard that she had found a very suitable shop for her sister. Zhao Ruyuan and his wife were the kind of people who were quite decisive and efficient, and there wasn't much that needed to be renovated in the shop.
They quickly completed the renovation and now the crayfish restaurant is open. Because of its suitable location and good taste, the crayfish restaurant has been doing booming business since it opened.
Su Shengnan felt that Zhao Ruyue was very successful in the careers of those around her, so he insisted that she help him find the office address of the branch company.
Zhao Ruyue had no choice but to start running back and forth between the provincial capital, county town and city.
Although Zheng Xiu's car could be chartered sometimes, Zheng Xiu had taken on a lot of monthly business and mainly drove around the county. Only when she had no customers would she take Zhao Ruyue to the city and provincial capital.
Most of the time, Zhao Ruyue still has to take public transportation by herself.
Ning Shaoming felt sorry for her because she had to spend a lot of time waiting for and riding buses every day, so he asked her if she wanted to buy a car: "We got our driver's licenses a long time ago, but we haven't bought a car yet. How about buying a small car for you to drive?"
In fact, Ning Shaoming wanted to bring up this matter when Zhao Ruyue ran back and forth between these three places for the first time.
But I thought this was temporary and I wouldn't need to run back and forth between three places often in the future, so I didn't mention it.
But when Su Shengnan opens a branch in the provincial capital, he will definitely need his wife to help.
In this way, the temporary trip back and forth between three places may very likely become a long-term one, so she still needs a car for convenient transportation, which can also save a lot of time spent on the road.
Zhao Ruyue was stunned for a moment when she heard this, thinking that Ning Shaoming had to frequently travel back and forth between the two places because he had to keep an eye on the construction and progress of the warehouse. And as for picking up the children, he didn't say that he would stop doing it because he was busy with warehouse matters, and he still took turns with her as usual.
When she goes to the provincial capital and the city, she just stays in the urban area and it is very convenient to take a taxi.
Ning Shaoming couldn't just take a bus to the provincial capital, he had to take two buses to get to the suburbs.
There are not many cars going to the suburbs, and taxi fares are expensive. Zhao Ruyue knew that he would definitely not be willing to take a taxi every time he went to the warehouse.
The workers at the construction site became familiar with him and even joked with him, saying that he was a boss but didn't have a car.
Even so, he never thought of buying himself a car.
Zhao Ruyue came back to her senses, feeling a little touched. She also blamed herself for not noticing this and felt a little guilty for not caring enough about him recently.
Under the influence of emotion, she said impulsively: "Buy two and we will each drive one!"
After calming down, Zhao Ruyue did not regret the decision she made on impulse.
I just took advantage of the day when I had some free time and took Ning Shaoming to the auto city to look at cars.
