Chapter 178 Sister Qing’s Dilemma
Zhou Jing's sudden words left Sister Qing and the fat boss dumbfounded.
The fat boss knew nothing at first, and although Sister Qing had some guesses, she was still dumbfounded when Zhou Jingzhen said it out loud.
When Song Tang and Zhou Jing discussed how to repay Sister Qing and her husband, they put a lot of thought into it.
The main reason is that the two parties have basically no overlap in the business field, and Song Tang found that he had no idea where to start if he wanted to help.
Song Tang knew nothing about Sister Qing's business, and Song Tang... Song Tang had nothing but a rented building, and now she had a shitty business in Kyoto.
You can't go out to eat barbecue every day, right? You can't open Sister Qing's barbecue in your building, right?
But when Zhou Jing heard Song Tang talking about collecting rent, she suddenly thought of something. What did her daughter have a lot of? A lot of money. That was really too much.
After the two discussed it, Song Tang approved of Zhou Jing's idea.
Then Zhou Jing used her connections to find Qingjie’s landlord, but she didn’t expect that the shop next door also belonged to this landlord.
At that time, the other party said that it was fine to sell, but both units had to be sold together.
Could this be a problem for Song Tang? After receiving Zhou Jing's report, Song Tang didn't even think twice and directly decided to let Zhou Jing buy all of them.
In this way, the names of the two shops were changed to Miss Song Tang's.
Zhou Jing received a notice from Song Tang, asking the original landlord not to tell Qing Jie and the others about the settlement yet, and to give them a surprise later.
At first, according to Song Tang's idea, he wanted to give the two houses to Sister Qing to manage without charging rent, but Zhou Jing directly rejected it.
"Miss, never underestimate human nature. Sister Qing and her husband have certainly been good to you. You can even say that they have helped you twice."
"But do you know that the rent for these two houses is tens of millions a year?"
"Sister Qing's relationship with you and her care for you are not yet at this level."
"Besides, are you sure she'll be okay with you not charging rent?"
"Based on my limited understanding of her, I think if you insist on not charging rent, she would rather move her business to another place."
Song Tang benefited a lot from what Zhou Jing said at that time. She had a lot to learn.
But she is only 18 years old, and there is still a lot of room for growth. These are all experiences, experiences. You can't learn without experience.
As the old saying goes, what you learn from books is always shallow, and you can only truly understand it by doing it yourself.
Today's college graduates in their early twenties, who have entered society and the workplace, may not understand as much as Song Tang does now.
Otherwise, why do people say that he is a pure and stupid college student...
In the barbecue restaurant.
After digesting the news, the fat boss spoke first: "This is inappropriate. We appreciate the kindness."
Sister Qing also nodded, "You really shocked me. To be honest, Song Tang didn't have to do this."
"The first time, I just protected her behind me. The second time, although I stepped forward, I wasn't the one who took action to solve the problem."
"In the final analysis, I didn't help much. If Xiao Songtang feels bad, just come to my place for dinner more often."
Although the couple's attitudes were very clear, Zhou Jing still shook her head.
"No matter what, my lady only cares about attitude."
"She thinks you are good to her, so she will be good to you."
"This is her intention. I think you'd better agree to it. Otherwise, I guess she will wait until the weekend to come to you in person."
"When the time comes, that little girl will act coquettishly and annoyingly. I don't think you can handle it."
As Zhou Jing was talking, she burst out laughing. Although her young lady was usually well-behaved, when she acted like a spoiled brat occasionally, most people couldn't handle it.
The fat boss was laughing at one side, while Sister Qing was looking at Zhou Jing who was gloating over her misfortune with a frown on her face.
However, when she thought of Song Tang's cute little appearance, and then thought of the scene of this little girl clinging to her and acting coquettishly, Sister Qing couldn't help but shudder.
I can't bear it, I really can't bear it. Sister Qing knows her own weight, and she has almost no resistance to little cute things like Song Tang.
Otherwise, how could she be so nice to Song Tang for no reason.
He glared at the fat boss who was still laughing foolishly beside him, and scared him into shutting up instantly.
"Well, I've always wanted to expand my store. Xiao Songtang has helped me a lot. You can tell her that there's no need to reduce the rent, just rent me the place next door as well."
Zhou Jing shook her head as soon as Sister Qing finished speaking.
"You've got the priorities wrong. In my lady's view, rent reduction is the most important thing, and the shop next door is just an incidental thing."
Zhou Jing's words made Sister Qing very distressed. The fat boss just sat aside and listened. He had no say in the management of the industry. He just had to grill the skewers well and be obedient.
"This... Xiao Songtang is too generous. It's really not necessary. I can't accept gifts without merit. I am embarrassed to accept this from her. I feel guilty about it."
Sister Qing talked to herself, and Zhou Jing just sat there quietly listening.
After a long time, Sister Qing's eyes changed, as if she had finally made up her mind.
"Well, I appreciate Xiao Songtang's kindness. But I can't give her so much, or she will suffer too much."
"Reduce it a bit. Don't talk about reducing the rent by half. Just two floors will do. How about that? Just think of it as me taking advantage of Xiao Songtang and giving her shop a 20% discount."
Zhou Jing nodded. This was also a possible solution, but the details still had to be decided by Song Tang.
"This approach should work, but I have to ask the young lady and see what she thinks."
Seeing Sister Qing nod, Zhou Jing took out her phone and sent a message to Song Tang. Normally, if Song Tang was at school, Zhou Jing would not call unless it was an emergency.
Because she didn't know what the young lady was doing at school, whether she was in class, in the library, or taking a break.
But it seems that Song Tang has nothing to do at the moment and he quickly replied.
[That's fine too, another 10% off, 30% off. If Sister Qing feels bad about it, just give me a discount when I go to eat barbecue next time.]
Zhou Jing smiled knowingly when she saw the news, she guessed it was like this.
Of course, Sister Qing also saw the message sent by Song Tang on Zhou Jing's phone.
The couple looked at each other and Sister Qing made the decision.
"Okay, it's settled. 30% off the rent. I want both rooms. From now on, Xiao Songtang can come to eat for free."
Zhou Jing also breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, such matters involving human relationships are actually the most difficult to handle. However, this trip was not in vain, and it can be regarded as a result that can be delivered.
"However, the shop next door still has a lease of half a year left. You need to wait until the lease expires and they move out before you can use it." Zhou Jing suddenly remembered this.
"Of course. No problem. I'll go over and say hello later. There's still half a year to find a new place."
When everything was settled, the fat boss saw that the matter was concluded and quickly stood up and prepared to get busy.
"Why are you running? Hurry up and bake something for Sister Zhou."
Sister Qing slapped her husband on his chubby butt.
Zhou Jing didn't refuse. She smiled as she watched the couple's interesting way of getting along. She felt a little hungry.
Well, both my stomach and my spirit are hungry.
