Chapter 83 Renovation Begins
With Zhou Yiran's help, the business license was obtained quickly and efficiently.
Hang Renshan's half-week of hard work was not in vain. He saved his property (he thought) and also obtained a business license.
Su Xiangwan's case involves a wide range of issues, and the bureau is still busy with these matters. In order to dig out this deeply hidden dark line, except for the 1,000 yuan given to the Hang family, everything else is carried out in secret.
Zhou Yiran was very clear about this. Yesterday, he only told the real situation to Hang Jingshu. The Hang couple were still kept in the dark!
This is also a disguised form of protection. After all, the Hang family is doing business, and it would be bad if they were secretly retaliated against because of this matter.
After getting the business license, Hang Renshan did not hesitate to put the prepared things into the clerk's hands as usual, still with an honest smile on his face: "Comrade, you have worked hard."
Although the clerk treated the person differently based on his situation, Hang Renshan also understood that it just happened that he met Officer Zhou today and had a few words with him. What if he didn't meet him again in the future?
If I start to show off, what if people hold a grudge against me?
If someone holds a grudge against you, you won't be able to bear the "special" attention every day.
So you have to do what you should do, and you must not be vague about giving the right things. Maybe the good karma you create will be useful in the future.
The clerk was a young wife in her 30s who had recently been fighting with her mother-in-law and inevitably brought her emotions to work.
Everyone does this anyway, and no one is criticized!
Today is her bad luck!
I thought I would be mocked after this old-fashioned thing, but I didn't expect him to still smile and even handed me a pack of cigarettes.
Nowadays, people are very particular about what gifts to give when doing business, and Hang Renshan chose the popular brand "Lotus" in Fengcheng.
The popular cigarettes here are 'Lotus' and 'Guan Ting', which are considered to be more presentable cigarettes. Even if she doesn't smoke them, she can give them away or let her family members smoke them.
Nowadays, people are a bit particular about gift giving. You can’t give something too big, as it will be too eye-catching. You can’t also give fruits like apples and watermelons that need to be washed and cut, as it will be inconvenient to share.
It is best to choose something like oranges, chestnuts or melon seeds, which have little odor, are easy to eat and easy to clean up.
Seeing Hang Renshan's expression, the clerk felt embarrassed. This cigarette was like a hot potato, and he was too embarrassed to accept it!
Hang Renshan saw all the trouble this person was in, so he just stuffed the cigarette into her face when no one was around, "Girl, I'm in trouble!"
After saying that, he happily went out with his business license. Zhou Yiran was still standing outside smoking, so he handed him another pack of cigarettes.
Zhou Yiran quickly refused: "Brother, I don't need this. We are about the same age. Let's just treat it as making friends."
The Hang couple are both honest people. Zhou Yiran's promotion is now a done deal, and he just came to see the noble man who gave him the performance award.
"Since we're brothers, just take it. We rough guys can't get used to smoking this stuff, so the ones we grow at home are still stronger!"
There is no reason to take back the things that have been given away, and what Hang Renshan said is true.
Hang Renshan feels that the cigarettes in this packaging have a light taste. He doesn't smoke much normally, only takes a few puffs when he's thinking about something. He is not addicted to this stuff, so there is really no point in keeping it.
Zhou Yiran felt uncomfortable, and he had to repay the favor, so he simply pulled Hang Renshan out and said, "Okay, if you give me something good, I'll treat you to a meal. You can't refuse it anymore!"

Now that the business license has been successfully obtained, Wang Silan is more enthusiastic about selling goods. She does not have to go anywhere else, but can set up a stall in front of the rented store and attract some people at the same time.
"Yes, we'll open here before the New Year, and we'll have new goods by then!"
“Don’t worry, it’s guaranteed to be the most popular!”
"Girl, what do you want? I'll write it down in my notebook."
Wang Silan's stall is now quite popular. She had many regular customers before, and after the stall became stable, these regular customers brought new customers.
Next to it are two ready-made clothing stores and an old craft tailor shop. Wang Silan sells small commodities, which do not conflict with each other and can bring business to each other. They all get along well.
One of them caught Wang Silan's attention: "Girl, what are these stickers you're talking about? Tell me about it."
"It's The Legend of the Condor Heroes and celebrity stickers! It would be great if you also sold notebooks and the like, so I can buy them all at once."
Wang Silan's mind instantly came to life after hearing this. She had also seen this kind of thing in Chouzhou, but she didn't buy it at that time. Now that she heard someone wanted it, she had an idea in her mind.
"Okay, I'll go buy some in two days, and I promise to bring you the best-looking stickers!"
The beginning of the Chinese New Year is a good opportunity to sell goods. Not only do adults need to dress up, but children also have to receive New Year's money!
Wang Silan is willing to try anything as long as she can make money. If children's clothing did not require too much capital, Wang Silan would still be willing to purchase some clothes to sell.
But what the lady said is right, too much greed will lead to spoilage. There are too many sizes of children's clothing, which is much riskier than selling small commodities. It is better to be safe!
When Hang Jingshu came over again on Sunday afternoon, Hang Renshan had already started shoveling the walls and modifying the circuits.
The floor beneath his feet was just ordinary cement ground. In order to save time, Hang Jingshu planned to lay a layer of floor directly on it so that the house would be high enough and not appear short.
In fact, there is also material called floor leather, which can be directly laid on with glue.
It is cheaper than ceramic tiles and wooden floors, but it also has disadvantages. It does not last as long as ceramic tiles and wooden floors and needs to be replaced every one or two years.
The craftsmanship of ceramic tiles is not yet up to standard, and Hang Jingshu was afraid that it would slip on rainy or snowy days, so after discussing it with his family, he decided to choose the more popular wooden flooring.
The rest is just simple basic decoration. Father Hang has been working in construction for more than ten years, so he is really good at this little thing.
As for more high-end decoration, Hang Jingshu has also planned it. She doesn't know how to do it, but she has connections. Her second brother-in-law Zhao Donglai does this, so his craftsmanship is definitely no problem.
We don't plan to take advantage of him, we'll pay for the labor and materials. Hang Jingshu just wants to make the snack shelf in the supermarket that he imagined.
The entire shelf is about two meters high, with vertical boards with holes punched on them, so things can be hung on both sides.
Leave 80 centimeters of space at the bottom to make a cabinet, and put plastic baskets on the cabinet to store small items. The large cabinet below can be locked and still be used to store things.
Do the same on the walls on both sides, and then find a good angle to install two mirrors at the door and inside. Not only can they be used as trial glasses, but they can also be used to see if anyone is stealing anything.
There is no surveillance these days, so you have to act according to your conscience. Mirrors can only serve to scare people.
Wang Silan will be able to clear out the goods in her hands today, pack up her things tomorrow and buy a ticket, and leave the day after tomorrow. She will first go to Wenzhou to purchase wallets, consign the goods for shipment, and then go to Chouzhou to purchase other goods.
You have to save money for home renovation. Wang Silan has more than 10,000 yuan in her hand. She looks at the busy father and daughter and is a little undecided: "Ni, how much money should I save for this renovation?"
