Chapter 60

Tanaka Mei and Qin Jun are the kind of people who never get up early without profit. They had come to her before, wanting to take over the wholesale business in the county.

Qin Xiang wanted to ask them directly where they got the confidence that she would agree.

It was like a dog-skin plaster. It was a rare opportunity to get something for nothing. She had lived for so many years and only encountered the Ningcheng one, and it was a bold gamble she made. With the relationship between Qin Xiang and Qin Jun, they still wanted to take advantage of her?

Bah!

So the two of them probably had no other business this time. Qin Xiang said directly, "I have already sold this stall, so just give up."

Hearing this, Tian Zhongmei's eyes widened, "Auntie, why can't you tell the difference between inside and outside?"

"Don't tell the difference between inside and outside?" Qin Xiang laughed sarcastically, "It depends on who you are with, but it's unnecessary to tell the difference between you. You don't disgust me, but I hate you."

Seeing that Tian Zhongmei wanted to say something, Qin Xiang's face turned cold, "If I were you, I would be honest and never provoke me. Do you think I can forget how you hurt me in the past, or have you forgotten what it feels like to be detained in the Public Security Bureau? Believe it or not, if I can send you in once, I can send you in a second time. I have the money and the people now, It's the same as dealing with the two of you. Don't think I won't do it just because my mother is on your side. You can try and see if I dare.

The two were startled by Qin Xiang's expression and took two steps back, saying awkwardly, "You are fine, aren't you? Isn't it said that the college entrance examination is coming again this year? We are all family, why should we remember the past? Didn't I apologize? Besides, you smashed all our things, can't you vent your anger? "

Qin Xiang: "No."

Tian Zhongmei: "... Then you are too stingy."

Qin Xiang said with a smile, "If you come to provoke me again, I will let you know what real stinginess is."

To be honest, Tian Zhongmei was still scared. Originally, they wanted to get Lian Fengying to persuade Qin Xiang, but when they went there, Lian Fengying didn't agree at all, saying that Qin Baotian warned her that if she dared to disturb Qin Xiang again, Qin Baotian would divorce her.

Lian Fengying was afraid of this and didn't dare to follow.

Qin Xiang glanced at them and left directly. The look in her eyes when she looked at them was almost the same as looking at stinky dog ​​shit.

Arriving at the station, the train was not due yet, Qin Xiang sat down, took out her study materials and studied every second.

Suddenly someone called her outside, Qin Xiang looked out the window, and it was her fourth sister Qin Juan with her child Zhao Di outside.

Qin Xiang asked hurriedly, "Sister, why are you here?"

"I heard you were back, so I came to see you, why are you in such a hurry to leave?" Qin Juan trotted over with her child, with beads of sweat on her face.

Qin Xiang smiled and said, "It's not that there are so many things going on in the provincial capital, I feel uneasy if I don't go back. The pre-exam is coming soon, and I have to prepare for the study."

"Well, it's very hard." Qin Juan handed a small bundle in, "Take it, eat on the way, take care of yourself, you can't make enough money, and protecting your body is the most important thing."

She asked Zhao Di to say goodbye to her, and Qin Xiang saw that the car didn't start, so she asked, "Sister, how are you doing now?"

"It's okay, that's it." Qin Juan didn't want to say more, waved, "I'm leaving."

Qin Xiang felt worried when she thought of the things in her previous life, so she shouted, "Sister, if we don't live well, we won't live well."

Qin Juan didn't look back, responded and took the child away.

Qin Xiang sighed and found that someone in the car was looking at her. She turned around and saw that she didn't know him, so she ignored him.

After arriving at the provincial capital, Qin Xiang hurried back to the store.

It was already afternoon, and the store was gradually crowded. Miao Xiaofeng and Tan Xiu were each with a new employee, and there was a girl sorting the goods. At

this time, Qin Yang raised his head from the pile of goods, "Are you back?"

Qin Xiang nodded, "I am back."

The girl who was squatting also stood up and bowed to Qin Xiang, "Hello, boss."

Qin Xiang paused, "Are you the niece of Deputy Director He?"

"Yes, I'm He Liping. One of Deputy Director He's many nieces." He Liping couldn't help but laugh.

Qin Xiang stared at the dimples on He Liping's face. It must be said that He Liping doesn't look like Deputy Director He. Look at this big dimple, it can really hold two taels of white wine. When she smiles, her face is so sweet that her ordinary facial features become lively. She

is indeed a good candidate for sales. Seeing such a girl smile, my heart will soften.

Qin Xiang nodded, "Okay, you do it first, and we'll talk later."

After going back upstairs and lying down, Qin Xiang couldn't sleep. She was thinking about the things in the store. There are five employees now, and the monthly salary is not enough.

No, the store in the university town must be opened quickly, and Mi Hongjun is coming too. It's not possible to have a team but not enough stores. It's not fun to have six or seven people guarding a store.

Thinking about things, I fell asleep in a daze. When I woke up, it was dark. Downstairs was bustling and lively.

Standing in front of the window, I can see the flow of people in the big square next to it, and the night market is also doing well.

Qin Xiang also went to the stall where Liu Hongqiang and others were selling clothes. They did some business, but it was far less than what she had in her store.

The next morning, Qin Xiang got up early to teach three new employees how to sort the goods, and gave them individual lessons on how to entertain customers.

To be honest, these are very different from the sales clerks nowadays. Nowadays, sales clerks in department stores still have iron rice bowls and are arrogant. There are almost no ones with good attitudes.

Even though my aunt had taught me some things before I came here and I was mentally prepared, I still felt magical when I really came into contact with them.

It turns out that being a salesperson can be like this.

He Liping was shocked.

The other people were fine, after all, they had been exposed to it for a while. Miao Xiaofeng and Tan Xiu, as the first group of people, felt more intuitively and knew what kind of service would be more acceptable to customers.

At around ten o'clock, Qin Xiang finished the class for them. Practice makes perfect, and everything must be learned from practice.

If you can't learn other things, then start with attitude. When entertaining customers, your attitude must be good. But you can't be scolded by customers and not fight back. In short, you have to find the right balance in the middle.

As for the others, they still have to practice slowly.

Qin Xiang went out and went directly to the university town.

In the west of the provincial capital is the university town of the provincial capital. At least four-fifths of the provincial capital's colleges and universities are concentrated in this area, so it is called the university town. Among them, the provincial capital university is the most famous and can be ranked in the top ten in the country.

Qin Xiang came straight here. Along the way, he found that there were many small vendors on the roadside, and some storefronts were rented out.

There were also shops selling clothes, but the number was relatively small and the storefronts were not big. They were not very conspicuous among a bunch of snack shops.

During the period of opening the store, although he went to stock up again, he also collected some funds and had a lot of daily turnover. In addition to the more than 5,000 yuan he had just collected, Qin Xiang planned to buy a storefront here directly.

After a stroll, there was indeed a place that Qin Xiang liked, which was also a corner. However, it was two storefronts, so if Qin Xiang wanted to rent or buy one, she had to connect them. From the outside, the inside didn't look very good either. After taking it down, she had to clean it up before she could use it again.

She found a place to eat at noon, and continued to walk around in the afternoon. Before dark, she finally selected several places.

After comparing, Qin Xiang asked about the landlord, but unfortunately she was unsuccessful.

Qin Xiang was not a person who gave up easily. If it didn't work on the first day, she went again on the second day.

She really ran into the landlord.

When she heard that she wanted to rent a house, the landlord said directly, "No."

Qin Xiang said in a good temper, "Then are you going to sell it?"

The landlord looked at her in surprise, "Do you want to buy? How many rooms do you want to buy?"

Qin Xiang's eyes lit up, "How many rooms do you plan to sell?"

Although the houses are all bungalows and look a bit old, the location is good. There will indeed be no changes in the next ten years or so. But at the turn of the millennium, the provincial capital began to renovate old houses, and this place was within the scope of demolition. That would be worth the money.

These days, nothing can be better than investing in real estate to make a lot of money, but it's a pity that not many people are willing to sell, and most people don't even have enough houses to live in.

I don't know what this row of houses were used for before.

When she noticed this place in her later life, these old houses were long gone, and turned into a big building, with a shopping mall below and apartments above, facing the provincial university and doing a booming business. As for whether she wants a house or something else after the demolition, that's a matter for the future. Anyway, she won't suffer a loss, and this is a good place anyway.

The landlord looked her up and down, and didn't think Qin Xiang was a rich person.

The reason is simple. Nowadays, rich people like to wear Dacron clothes, but Qin Xiang is wearing cotton and linen clothes, which look worthless.

Qin Xiang: But it is cool.

Qin Xiang saw that the other party was a little hesitant, so he said sincerely, "If the price is right, I will buy a few more rooms."

"Do you want to be a self-employed person?"

Qin Xiang nodded, "Yes."

The landlord is a man in his forties. He nodded and said, "This row of houses were used as collateral for debts, but I need money urgently now, so I plan to sell them all. How many rooms can you buy?"

Qin Xiang looked around. There are eight rooms in this row, and each room should be more than ten square meters.

Qin Xiang said, "That depends on how much you set the price for each room. If it's suitable, I'll buy them all. If you're asking for too much, I might not buy any of them."

Her tone was quite loud, and the uncle was immediately surprised.

Rich man.

Qin Xiang added, "Uncle, I really want to buy it. If you give me a good price, I can pay you in cash."

The uncle was really tempted. The house was not originally his. If he hadn't paid back the account from his previous business, the other party would not have mortgaged it to him. The house did

make him feel safe, but there were too many people eyeing it, and they wanted to take advantage of it and live in it for free, so he was not happy.

It happened that a friend asked him to go to the northwest to invest in a coal mine. He was tempted, but he didn't have enough money, so he had his eyes on these houses.

Although there are very few people who want to sell houses nowadays, it is not that there are none. Unfortunately, the few people he received only wanted to rent.

How much does it cost to rent a house? This broken house can only be rented out for more than ten yuan a month, which is only more than one hundred yuan a year. Eight rooms are no more than eight hundred yuan.

It is not enough for him. After

Qin Xiang finished speaking, the uncle thought for a while and said, "Two of these eight houses are bricks, one is six hundred yuan, and the remaining one is a mud wall, four hundred yuan."

The price is not expensive and acceptable. It is a total of three thousand six hundred yuan.

To be honest, it is lower than Qin Xiang imagined. The money she has is enough to buy it and find someone to renovate it.

But Qin Xiang still frowned slightly, "This price is not cheap."

The uncle snorted, "You can't find many such cheap ones in the provincial capital. It's because I'm in urgent need of money and want to sell them all at once. Otherwise, I can sell each room even if it has mud walls for an extra thirty or fifty yuan."

"You are right, but your place is far from the factory. People in government agencies have houses allocated by the state and don't care about this. Normal people won't come here."

Uncle: "I can sell it to self-employed people."

Qin Xiang told the truth, "Most self-employed people rent a storefront for ten or twenty yuan a month, and they won't buy it. Small businesses can take out three or five hundred to buy a house. Will they buy it?"

Or the public's ideas have not changed. Most people think that houses belong to the state and are allocated by the state. Many self-employed people really have no jobs and no future and want to try to make a living. After accumulating funds, they will definitely buy a house. Who would buy a house with three or five hundred yuan at the beginning? Isn't it better to keep it as capital?

Qin Xiang's words made the uncle speechless, "How much do you want?"

Qin Xiang didn't say anything, but walked along the street and took a general look at the situation inside.

In fact, he was very excited.

It was facing the south gate of the provincial university, with eight houses in a row. Students could see it when they came out. Not far away were the Provincial Normal University and the Art Academy, which were in the center. The house looked inconspicuous now, gray and gloomy. There were two small restaurants across the street at the western end, and the uncle's eight houses were vacant. It was impossible that

there would be no one who didn't want to rent such a location, but the uncle wanted to sell it, and the person who could afford it hadn't appeared except her.

Qin Xiang came back and said to the uncle, "Do you know whose houses are those at the corner?"

The uncle was shocked, "Do you want to buy them all?"

Qin Xiang nodded, "Yes, if you can help introduce them to me and persuade them to sell them to me, I will buy them at the price you mentioned, and you don't have to sell the same house to two different owners, otherwise you don't know when you can find the next owner to sell them to. What do you think?"

She just thought about it, most of the houses now are mud walls, to be honest, not very good. But there is a small area of ​​​​open space behind the house, which is surrounded by these houses. She wants to demolish the house directly, and then build a two-story storefront, leaving room for her own clothing store, and rent out the rest to collect rent.

The rent will indeed not be very high, but if she plays the long game, she will make money one day.

After Qin Xiang finished speaking, the uncle also took it seriously, "Are you really rich?"

Qin Xiang nodded, "Uncle, you are also from the provincial capital. If you don't have some skills, you can't have so many storefronts. But who does business without some confidence and backing. I've been standing here and chatting with you for a long time. If I don't have some skills, I dare not talk nonsense with you here, don't you think so?"

As for who her thigh is, she will definitely not tell it.

Because she doesn't have any, all she has is her third brother. If you insist on saying that he is her backer, then his third brother is her backer.

The problem is that others don't know, so you have to fool them.

It's not that easy for you to bully me.

The uncle nodded, "My name is Hu Dawei, you can just call me Lao Hu. The three rooms on the other side of the corner belong to the person who originally owed me money. I'll go and negotiate for you."

Qin Xiang nodded, "How long will it take to reach an agreement?"

"Wait for me here in the afternoon. Bring the money over and we'll go handle the formalities together."

Qin Xiang understood then. Hu Dawei knew the situation of the landlord of the three rooms and must be willing to sell the house. Qin Xiang was worried that the night would bring more trouble, so he said directly: "Then just take the things and go directly to the Real Estate Bureau."

Hu Dawei knew that the other party did not trust him, but he was still worried that Qin Xiang would not buy it, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go find someone to persuade her."

Qin Xiang took a bus back and told Qin Yang about it. Qin Yang was a little hesitant, "Is it really okay?"

Qin Xiang shook her head, "I'm not sure, but we can go to the Real Estate Bureau in the afternoon to see if there is any problem. If their procedures are not complete, they can't handle it."

Qin Yang nodded, "Okay, I'll go with you in the afternoon."

After Qin Yang went out, Qin Xiang still felt that he had to inquire about it.

Who should I ask? Isn't the neighbor Ge Da Ye a ready-made person? Since Ge Da Ye can help Meng Huaiqing look after the property and can keep it for so many years, he must be a capable person. Maybe I can find out by asking him.

Qin Xiang saw meat and vegetables in the kitchen, so she fried two dishes and brought them to Ge Da Ye's house.

Grandpa Ge was fanning himself in the house with a palm-leaf fan.

"Hey, why is Boss Qin here?" Qin Xiang seemed to have not heard his strange words. She put the dishes on the table and went home to get a bottle of wine. "Let's have a couple of drinks?"

Seeing the bottle, Grandpa Ge sat up and said reluctantly, "Let's have two drinks."

Qin Xiang didn't know how much Grandpa Ge could drink, so she poured him a glass and poured herself one. She raised it and said, "Come on, clink glasses."

Grandpa Ge looked at her suspiciously, "What's the matter?"

"I have something." Qin Xiang did not hide the fact that she had something to ask of her, so she told him that she wanted to buy a few shopfronts. "I've already seen the place, and negotiated the price with the landlord. We've agreed to go and transfer the ownership this afternoon. I thought that since you've lived in the provincial capital for so many years, I wanted to ask you to help me check it out."

Hearing her say this, Master Ge was surprised, "You are so rich."

Qin Xiang was happy, "It's not a big deal. I can still afford to buy a few empty houses."

Master Ge nodded, "You have already drunk the wine and eaten the food. If I don't go, you will definitely blame me."

"That can't be possible. You are so enthusiastic, you will definitely be able to help." Qin Xiang was not talking nonsense. Although Mr. Ge looked difficult to deal with, he was actually quite enthusiastic, especially at night when he would sit at the door waving a large palm-leaf fan and watching the people coming in and out of the store, and also help to keep an eye on the store.

Qin Xiang said, "When things are settled, my third brother and I will treat you to a good meal at the hotel."

Mr. Ge was satisfied, and his hair was smoothed. "You are so smooth-talking, you are worthy of being a self-employed person."

If this came from someone else, it would definitely look down on self-employed people, but Mr. Ge was just joking, so Qin Xiang didn't care.

After lunch, Qin Xiang cleaned up the dishes and went back, "You take a rest, we will go out at three o'clock."

This was the time agreed with Hu Dawei.

At three o'clock, Qin Xiang came over and called Mr. Ge, and together with Qin Yang, they went out directly with more than 4,000 yuan in cash.

At that time, there were no 100-yuan notes. The largest denomination was the 10-yuan note, so more than 4,000 yuan was really a lot of money.

Qin Xiang and the other two took the tram all the way to the front of the provincial gate. Ge Daye said in disdain, "How can this broken house be worth 600 yuan?"

Hu Dawei and Gou Fu, who had just arrived, looked embarrassed.

Qin Xiang saw the two and greeted them. Seeing that there was another person beside Hu Dawei, Qin Xiang knew that the matter was settled.

Hu Dawei took the initiative to introduce, "This is Gou Fu, the three rooms on the corner are his. You can negotiate the price."

Qin Xiang looked at Gou Fu, who coughed and said, "Six hundred for one..."

Before he finished speaking, Ge Daye said, "Six hundred for the one facing the school is fine, but you want six hundred for these three mud houses, go and get the money."

Gou Fu: "You can't say that, my location is good."

Hu Dawei didn't want to talk anymore. When he talked to this person at noon, he also made it clear that his two brick-walled rooms were only sold for six hundred yuan, but this person insisted that his house was worth six hundred yuan. He had clearly persuaded him on the way to sell one house for four hundred yuan, but he changed his mind when the time came.

He was really worried

that he would not be able to sell his house. Although housing was not affordable these days, there were not many people willing to pay for a house. After finally meeting a sucker, they wanted to sell it as soon as possible.

Grandpa Ge said, "Bah, you still think it's good for this location."

Grandpa Ge said directly to Qin Xiang, "This house is not worth 600 yuan, 400 yuan is too expensive, I advise you not to buy it."

Qin Xiang smiled and said to Gou Fu, "Brother, 400 yuan for a room, I will buy all three, how about it? If you insist on 600 yuan a room, then forget it. I originally wanted to buy them all so that I can rebuild the house and it will affect your rooms. If you don't want to sell it, then forget it."

After he finished speaking, Hu Dawei was surprised, "Are you planning to tear it down and rebuild it?"

Qin Xiang nodded, "Yes, the house is too old, rebuild it."

After it was built, it was spacious and bright, and she didn't believe that no one would rent it.

Even if the three rooms were not bought, it would be obvious if they were compared. The road was paved, but if the other party was not willing to sell, that was their problem. She would at most feel a little regretful, but she would not feel bad.

Qin Xiang made it clear. If Gou Fu still dragged on, he would be really stupid. "Then 450 per room."

Qin Xiang smiled faintly. "400, if I spend 450 to buy it, what would Uncle Hu think?"

Hu Dawei grinned. "Okay, Gou Fu, that's enough. If you really can't sell it, you will never be able to pay off the money you owe."

This sentence touched Gou Fu's sore spot. His past was exposed. What else was there to be entangled about? He nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, 400 is 400."

He originally wanted to take advantage of a little, but he didn't expect that it was really hard to take advantage. After

the matter was settled, several people went directly to the Housing Management Office.

Qin Xiang was afraid that other problems would affect her house-buying business. Hu Dawei and Gou Fu were worried that Qin Xiang would regret not buying these houses, so both parties were very active in this matter.

On the way, Ge Daye chatted with Gou Fu and Hu Dawei and asked a lot of questions. Qin Xiang realized later that Ge Daye was helping to find out if there were any other problems with the house.

Qin Xiang was grateful in her heart, but she also realized her shortcomings. She was too confident when considering things, so she met Ge Daye. Thanks to these two people, there was no problem with the house, otherwise there would be a lot of troubles after buying the house, which would be a big loss.

Now all houses, whether public or private, are registered.

Qin Xiang took the money and paid it, the housing management office handled the transfer procedures, and the two landlords handed over the keys, and the house became Qin Xiang's.

Qin Xiang looked at the name on the house title and felt happy.

Now he had a house, and this was truly his own house.
