"So happy?" Seeing Qin Zijin smiling like a little fox with curved eyebrows, Tang Shen couldn't help but feel happy too.
"Of course I'm happy, I got a great bargain. He may think that he's making a lot of money with a rent of ten thousand a year, but he will regret it soon. I have to buy this store quickly before the five-year lease expires. Judging from the boss's expression, he will probably plan to sell the store in less than three years." Qin Zijin put away the agreement in a good mood and put his arm around Tang Shen.
Tang Shen looked at her in confusion, "How did you figure that out?"
"Haven't you noticed? The boss smells strongly of cigarettes, and his eyes are bloodshot. It's obvious he often stays up late. And there are obvious calluses on the pads of his index finger and thumb. They're from playing mahjong and rubbing the cards every day. Proves he's a gambler."
"His eyes lit up when he got the money. It was obvious that he was anxious to get the money back at the casino."
"It won't be long before he loses all the 50,000 yuan."
"If you lose all your money, you'll have to sell your house and shop, right? If you're really ruthless, you might even have to sell your wife and children."
Qin Zijin has seen many gamblers. As long as they cannot get out of the gambling pit, they will continue to be addicted to it until they lose everything and their families are destroyed.
It is obvious that the shop owner is such a person.
Tang Shen frowned upon hearing this. "If he really is that kind of person, then if we buy his shop, I'm afraid we'll get into a lot of trouble."
"Don't worry, it's not a big problem. We will also find a few security guards to help watch over the store. We can just look around to see if there are any people with reliable character who are forced to live in society due to family reasons. Those people are the most well-connected. There will definitely be no problem asking them for help." Qin Zijin was not worried about this.
The store has been acquired, and the next step is to clean it up and do some simple renovations.
Because he wanted to sell electrical appliances, Qin Zijin planned to turn the first and second floors into exhibition halls and display samples of televisions, radios, etc., so he only needed to build a few tables to place the appliances.
These were not difficult things, and the two of them settled it that day.
In the afternoon, I hired someone to clean the store inside and out.
"Have you rented this guy's shop?" The shop next door was selling breakfast. After seeing the commotion here, he walked out of the shop, looked at Qin Zijin and Tang Can, and couldn't help asking curiously.
"Sister, we have indeed bought this store, and we will open it in a few good days." Qin Zijin nodded. It is said that a close neighbor is worse than a distant relative, so it is very important to build good relationships with neighbors.
"The boss of this store is not a good person. He has offended many people. His store used to be doing well, but from time to time people come and smash things, making it impossible to continue operating. We want to rent it out, but no one is willing to buy it. You should think it over carefully." The elder sister was obviously kind-hearted. She knew that the boss was not a good person, so she whispered a reminder to Qin Zijin and Tang Can.
"Sister, it's okay. We know that the boss is a gambler, but thank you for reminding me." Qin Zijin felt warm in her heart.
There are still a lot of kind-hearted people these days, and most of them are very simple and honest.
Even if someone is a little greedy, his intentions are not that bad.
Qin Zijin thanked the other party and chatted with him for a few more words, learning a lot about the surrounding situation, including the shops nearby, several residential areas, and the situations of some people who already lived there.
She became more and more satisfied with choosing this place to open a second-hand electrical appliance store.
It took two days to clean up the store inside and outside.
After that, we just have to wait for the custom-made counter to be ready.
There are not only counters, but also shelves nailed to the wall, which are used to place some small and lightweight electrical appliances, such as radios.
Qin Zijin runs back and forth every day, spending most of his rest time at the new store, while Tang Can goes back to the recycling station to prepare for opening the store.
After a week, all the shelves in the store were finally built and delivered.
Jiang Zhenlong and others came to help and arranged everything according to Qin Zijin's instructions.
They also used a van to bring the assembled electrical appliances over one by one.
After running back and forth for a whole day, I finally pulled it over.
The first floor is a store, the second floor is currently used as a warehouse, and a partition is arranged as a rest room for people to sleep here. The attic on the third floor is arranged for Tang Shen.
The store is very clean and tidy, and it is easy to see at a glance. You can see the TV placed on the counter as soon as you enter.
There are black and white, color, and various brands.
Qin Zijin came from the future after all, and was very familiar with the marketing routines.
While preparing, I also arranged the opening promotions with Tang Shen.
Very simple activity.
If you spend a certain amount of money on shopping, you can enter a lucky draw.
Nowadays, many supermarkets and shopping malls hold this kind of lottery activities.
Every time everyone thinks they will win the jackpot, they will be more motivated to buy things.
In addition to the grand prize, there are also various consolation prizes. As long as you spend money to buy things, you can get a prize.
The Qingming Festival had just passed, and there was still a drizzle in Guangzhou from time to time. On April 10th, the sound of firecrackers rang out, and Qin Zijin and Tang Can's electrical appliance store finally opened.
Because a lot of flyers had been distributed before the opening, everyone knew that a new store was opening today, and I also heard that there would be a lottery, and the winner of the first prize would get a TV for free.
Therefore, it attracted many people living nearby.
Jiang Zhenlong, Tang Can, and the two female sales clerks Qin Zijin hired temporarily were all in place. In addition, Xiao Ping, the young man who was learning repair techniques from Tang Can, also put on overalls and sat behind the repair table.
The store is filled with neatly assembled televisions that look about 80 to 90 percent new.
"Boss, is it true that you can have a lottery when you buy something, and if you win you can get a TV for free? This can't be a scam, right?" An aunt who looked to be in her early fifties couldn't help but pull Jiang Zhenlong aside and asked curiously.
Jiang Zhenlong had a smile on his face, which looked a bit creepy, but he patiently explained seriously, "Auntie, it's true. As long as you spend 38 yuan or more in the store, you can enter the lottery once. The more you spend, the more times you can enter the lottery."
"Thirty-eight yuan? What thing in your store costs thirty-eight?" The aunt was a little hesitant. After all, thirty-eight is not a small amount of money.
"The goods in our store are all clearly priced. If it's thirty-eight yuan, then this electric kettle is thirty-eight yuan." After Qin Zijin's intensive training, Jiang Zhenlong now knows how to greet customers in a professional manner.
He led the person into the store and pointed at a black electric kettle and started introducing it.
The old lady hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted her teeth and bought it.
After paying, Jiang Zhenlong led her to a turntable in the store.
When the old lady saw it, her eyes lit up immediately, and she walked forward and turned the turntable with force.
