Chapter 40: Preliminary Negotiations

In all fairness, Su Mu's head is very useful, but he doesn't have much social experience.

Fortunately, the atmosphere in the United States advocates straightforwardness, and even Chinatown, which is inhabited by Chinese, has been affected in this environment, so you can just say what you want, especially when it comes to business, without beating around the bush.

Convenience stores are not the investment projects that Su Mu is most interested in, high-tech industries such as computers and Internet industries are, but from the current situation, investing in supermarkets is the easiest and most convenient, and I don't know much about those emerging high-tech industries, so it is impossible to easily participate in them until I figure out the details.

What's more, more than 100,000 US dollars is definitely enough for ordinary daily life, but to invest in those high-tech industries, it is still far away for the time being, maybe it will be used up before even splashing, and investing in supermarkets is very suitable for Su Mu's current situation.

After saying this to Boss Han, I couldn't help but start worrying in my heart, if I was rejected, it would be a headache, maybe I would have to hurry up and exchange the money for stocks, Apple or Intel, Microsoft and other companies' stocks, before the old man and his parents learned the news, they would cut it off and then solve other problems.

At this age, Su Mu feels that he should make some big decisions on his own, Chinese children born in the United States receive Eastern education from the family on the one hand, and Western education from school and society on the other, so that many families, like Westerners, support themselves independently when their children become adults, and they are about eighteen years old, and many children also want to be independent, and the same is true for Su Mu......

For Boss Han, it is of course good to be able to get an investment of more than 100,000 US dollars, he is quite wealthy in Chinatown, but his assets are mainly concentrated in fixed assets such as houses, cars, and shops.

Originally, I only planned to take out more than 100,000 US dollars to open a large-scale convenience store, but I just heard what Su Mu said, it was a TV set and clothing, although it was possible to owe a part of the debt, but no matter how you calculated it, this money was definitely not enough, three or four hundred thousand US dollars was about the same, plus the more than 100,000 US dollars that Su Mu hoped to invest was barely enough.

On the other hand, someone who invests with himself can also share the risk, Boss Han feels that opening a supermarket has a promising future, but there is no 100% profitable business in the world, there are always exceptions to everything, his character is more stable than Su Mu, and he is not opposed to someone to help him share part of the risk.

After thinking about it quickly, Boss Han said to Su Mu with a smile on his face: "It sounds like he's threatening me, don't play this game with me, it's a big deal to go to other supermarkets to see in person, you can always learn how to operate." ”

Su Mu followed and got into the car and said, "Can someone else's trade secret tell you?"

And even if you tell you, maybe you won't be able to learn it, like Wal-Mart supermarket, which is growing very well in the south, and it recently spent more than $20 million to launch a commercial satellite, do you know what to use it?"

"More than 20 million satellites, tell me about it. ”

Boss Han replied happily.

Young is very disadvantaged, even if Su Mu has deliberately shown maturity, in his opinion, he is still a child who is selling, in the final analysis, Su Mu's status and funds are not enough, if he faces the child of a billionaire, he will definitely not be so casual when talking about business.

"From the purchase to the inventory, distribution, delivery, shelf, and sale, Wal-Mart has realized computer network control, and they have built huge warehouses to store goods purchased in bulk at low prices, and then ship them to different places as needed.

Even if we open a supermarket, the price of goods cannot be lower than theirs, we can't configure those supply networks, and we can't afford to spend so much money to launch satellites to build a logistics system, but there are many ideas of this company that are worth learning. ”

The car is already moving forward, on both sides are bustling high-rise buildings, more than 100,000 US dollars are only enough to buy a small apartment in this neighborhood, maybe a middle-aged man dressed in ordinary clothes, the annual income is as high as one million US dollars, countless facts have proved that Su Mu is still very poor, and he is still far from financial freedom.

After Su Mu finished speaking, Boss Han changed the topic and said, "Are you sure to learn, I mean that if you open such a store, you can make a ...... Wal-Mart, a supermarket of the same kind?

I think it's better for you to discuss it with your parents, as long as they agree that I can invest in partnership with you, first say okay, I'll manage the matter, and the accounts can be managed by someone, so that everyone can rest assured. ”

Boss Han manages more than a dozen convenience stores, and he is very relieved to hand over the store to him to manage Su Mu, convenience stores and supermarkets are both retail businesses, and there are some similarities, Su Mu never thought that he would come by himself, he was going to high school next, and it would cost more money to find someone to manage it.

Just manage the funds in the store, Su Mu didn't feel that there was anything wrong, so he nodded and told Boss Han: "Okay, you can manage the store after it is opened, but tell me about my parents...... This has to wait first, they don't understand what a supermarket is, in case it will be very troublesome to oppose it, boss, don't mention it to my father for the time being.

Let's go around Chinatown first to see if there are any suitable stores? The area must be large, the matter of the supplier of goods must also be discussed, the decoration does not need to be luxurious, it must be comfortable. ”

......

After reaching a preliminary agreement, Su Mu felt that it was amazing, he was just a poor child when he went out in the morning, and now he was about to invest more than 100,000 US dollars in business.

Boss Han also found it funny, the little guy who came to work in his store actually wanted to partner with him to do business, and his fate was so wonderful.

After taking some time to return to the vicinity of Chinatown, Boss Han suggested that he go to a newly built shopping mall, and he wanted to open a store there yesterday, thinking that the location was quite good.

The mall is located in the middle of Mexico City and Chinatown, just near the corner, and was just built at the end of last year, before which there were no large shopping complexes in the vicinity, and people were used to going to the old stores to buy things, mainly because they were greedy for cheap, so this mall did not have a lot of traffic.

The surrounding land is not valuable, and the developer has set aside a large parking lot, the whole department store is four stories high, the exterior wall is red, and the glass is posted with billboards for rent, Su Mu got out of the car and asked: "It seems that there is no one, is there such a big shop here?"

Isn't it good to open in Chinatown, there are many Chinese people, and the rent is cheap. ”

Boss Han replied: "There are grocery stores everywhere, there must be people who are mischievous after they open, they have been doing business in it for so long, I know what kind of temper they have, and I can't find such a big store, at least a thousand square meters."

I think it's very good here, I came to it once in March, the third and fourth floors are almost empty, I heard that a movie theater is going to be built on the fourth floor, it should be very good in the future, come to rent a house at this time, the rent should not be too expensive......"
