Because the landlord was too enthusiastic, he was eager to rent out his unlucky shop and defraud the deposit.
Jiang Qi originally just planned to look for a shop today, and when he had found enough, he would go to see a shop with Huang Fugui. It would be easier to bargain with Huang Fugui around.
As a result, because Landlord Zuo couldn't wait any longer, Jiang Qi had to go to see the shop with Sister Hu.
Having said that, although Jiang Qi would pass by the store every day, he never got close. He always walked through the alley and never went across the street.
Landlord Zuo’s shop is right next door, and the sign of the previous bankrupt store has not been taken down.
Friendship Flower Shop.
There is nothing wrong with the shop itself. The doors, windows, water and electricity are all in good condition. It has its own toilet, small utility room and sink. The previous tenant also pasted light green wallpaper on the wall. The wallpaper is of good quality and well preserved.
If Jiang Qi rents this shop, he only needs to purchase a series of soft furnishings such as tables and chairs, kitchen utensils, and braised food display cabinets. If he works quickly, the decoration can be completed in one or two days.
It is easy to open a store quickly.
After taking a careful look around the store, Jiang Qi expressed his satisfaction.
"What do you think, Boss Jiang?" Boss Zuo, a middle-aged man with thinning hair and a plump figure, asked with a smile in not very standard Mandarin.
Jiang Qi thought there was no problem. Just as he was about to speak, Sister Hu, who was accompanying Jiang Qi to look at the shop, spoke first: "Landlord Zuo, isn't 2,200 a month a bit too expensive for your shop?"
Landlord Zuo was not happy: "2200 a month is still expensive? Sister Hu, what you said is not honest. 2200 a month for such a big shop is cheap even in your alley, not to mention the location of my shop. Sister Hu, don't forget, the price you quoted when you wanted to open this shop was more than half cheaper now."
Sister Hu showed a look of disdain and opened fire: "The past was the past, and the present is the present. Let me put it bluntly, who in this area doesn't know what the feng shui of this shop has been like in the past two years? You have had several agents list your shop, right? It's been a few months, has anyone come to inquire? 2200 a month isn't expensive? How about this, you cover the property management fee, and if you cover it and lower it a bit, we'll..."
"No, no, 2200 is really the lowest price. Sister Hu, you are..."
"Don't tell me anything..."
Then Jiang Qi looked at Sister Hu and Landlord Zuo, one was madly criticizing and the other was madly praising. The two of them didn't care about Jiang Qi at all and were arguing with saliva flying everywhere.
Later in the argument, the fruit shop owner also joined in.
Jiang Qi:?
When will the fruit shop owner come?
After more than an hour of tug of war, Sister Hu and the fruit shop owner won the final victory.
1900 per month, excluding property fees, and the deposit is three months' rent in one month's rent. The rent is paid monthly, with a minimum lease term of one year. The deposit will not be refunded if you cancel the lease early.
Sister Hu wanted to reduce the deposit to three months' deposit and one month's payment to two months' deposit and one month's payment, but it was obvious that landlord Zuo's bottom line was to use three months' deposit and one month's payment to defraud the deposit, and he refused to give in no matter what. Sister Hu and the fruit shop owner had no choice but to give up.
Landlord Zuo doesn't care about the monthly rent at all. In fact, he offers such a low rent and such a high deposit because he himself feels that his shop is really unlucky.
He didn't think Jiang Qi could last a year, so he just waited for a month or two until Jiang Qi moved out and got the deposit to find the next opportunity.
If his shop wasn't notoriously unlucky and difficult to sell, he would have wanted to sell it long ago.
After finalizing the rent, Landlord Zuo went to print the contract, signed it with both hands to confirm that it was correct, and then Jiang Qi transferred the rent and deposit to Landlord Zuo.
"I wish the boss a prosperous business in the future!" Landlord Zuo said with a smile, "By the way, I haven't asked you yet, what kind of store are you going to open, Boss Jiang? I'll come and patronize you when I'm free in the future."
"Braised food shop." This is Jiang Qi.
"Low noodle shop." This is Sister Hu.
"Script-killing shop." This is the owner of the fruit shop.
Landlord Zuo:?
Fruit shop owner:? ?
Jiang Qi: ???
"Braised noodle shop?" Jiang Qi looked at Sister Hu.
Sister Hu said as if it was a matter of course: "Isn't it? Xiao Jiang, you sell both braised dishes and vegetable noodles, isn't this a braised noodle shop?"
Jiang Qi suddenly felt that Qingqing was not doing well in her studies, and it might not just be Qingqing’s problem.
"Xiao Jiang, are you planning to open a braised food store?" The fruit shop owner was also surprised. "I thought you were planning to open a branch store to compete with this letter for business!"
Jiang Qi: ...
The fruit shop owner is quite imaginative. I guess she must have watched a lot of palace fighting dramas.
If a 50-square-meter business competes with a 1,000-square-meter business, I’m afraid it will be difficult to win.
Before Jiang Qi could explain, the fruit shop owner reacted: "Oh, look at my memory. I have been smelling the stewed food in your shop for a whole day, how could I forget that you, Xiao Jiang, have just learned how to make stewed food."
"You sell the braised dishes here, so are you selling the milk tea here too?"
"I asked my husband to go to your store to buy it this morning, but he kept delaying and finally forgot about it. By the time he got there, everyone in Xiaojiang was gone."
"The new pot will be ready tonight. I'll cut a pound of beef heart and send it to you then." Jiang Qi said with a smile.
The fruit shop owner smiled happily: "That's great, I like eating beef heart the most."
After hearing this, the landlord still didn’t understand what kind of store Jiang Qi opened:?
Landlord Zuo said he couldn’t understand it.
Sister Hu and the fruit shop owner still had business to do in their own shops. Since Jiang Qi’s rental contract had already been signed, the two of them went back first.
Jiang Qi found Boss Wang’s WeChat in the alley merchant group, and through Boss Wang, he got the merchant who sold the braised food display cabinets. He also ordered a series of necessary supplies including freezers along with the display cabinets.
After ordering these, Jiang Qi called Jiang Xiaohong again and asked his aunt to help him go to the second-hand furniture market to find some cheap tables and chairs. Her clothing store was right next to the second-hand furniture market.
Jiang Xiaohong was very happy to hear that Jiang Qi's business had become so successful that he had opened a branch. She immediately announced the good news in the family group and said that to celebrate she would buy some delicious food tomorrow morning and sincerely invited everyone to come to her house for lunch at noon.
Although Jiang Wanwan curiously asked in the family group why a branch of a script-killing store would be a braised food store, everyone said it didn't matter.
Jiang Bing, who was far away, also sent a congratulatory message to Jiang Qi, and warned him to be cautious when opening a store and not to follow the same path as himself.
After finishing all this, Jiang Qi closed the door of the new store and prepared to customize the signboard.
He has already thought of a name for the store.
Xinghe braised food shop.
As soon as he walked out of the store, Jiang Qi saw an extremely eye-catching sign poster on the glass window of the store next door which was still under renovation.
Recruiting front desk, cleaning staff, full-time/part-time DM, salary negotiable.
This is a good way to recruit. Roadside shops have good locations, and posting recruitment posters may be more effective than recruiting online.
Jiang Qi was greatly inspired and immediately went to a printing shop to get a similar signboard information.
It's just a little bit worse than the one next to it. The one next to it is a beautiful poster, while his is just A4 paper.
We are sincerely recruiting braised food store clerks, script store customer service staff, and script store full-time/part-time DMs.
After posting the recruitment notice, Jiang Qi happily went to customize the shop sign.
An hour later, the boss, who came to the store to check on the progress of the soft decoration of his new store which had not yet opened, saw the sign information posted by Jiang Qi as expected.
Boss: ???
A braised food shop is looking for a script-killing DM?
Is it because the industry is changing too fast and he is no longer up to date?
