Chapter 5 Failure to Rent a Shop (II)
Wang Chengrong came to the construction work surface and found Lin Wenwen and Li Gui. Li Gui saw that Wang Chengrong was preoccupied, so he couldn't wait to ask: "Chengrong, I think you have something to do like this, what urgent matter is holding you like this?"
"I just paid the deposit, and if I meet someone, I will be in trouble!" Wang Chengrong replied thoughtfully.
"Who are you in trouble with?" Don't be afraid, there are two brothers, me and Jingwen!" Li Gui said a little excitedly.
"Hmm...... I'm not in that kind of trouble, but I'm running into a unified food distributor!" Wang Chengrong explained calmly.
"You really impress me, you actually know the unified food distributor!" Li Gui said a little surprised.
"I don't know him, but he took the initiative to ask!" Wang Chengrong said calmly.
"What did you find?" asked Lin Wenwen interjected.
"Yes, I'm in trouble because I found out!" Wang Chengrong replied calmly.
"You don't sell Guanzi, what do you find?" Li Gui asked a little anxiously.
"We can transfer the unified food goods twice in three days, and these payments will be accumulated until the end of the month, so we can save a lot of money!" replied Wang Chengrong.
"This is a very good thing, what's the trouble?" Li Gui hurriedly asked.
"Well, Uni-President Food can be like this, but what about other companies?" Wang Chengrong replied with a question.
"Can all enterprises be like this?" asked Li Gui a little excitedly.
"I estimate that most companies can do this, and supermarkets can make full use of external funds, so as to make liquidity more abundant!" Wang Chengrong said calmly.
"I know, it's not going to be easy right now. Lin Wenwen interjected.
"Hey, hey...... I still don't understand, you have to make it clear!" Li Gui hurriedly asked.
"We have abundant liquidity and can expand the scale of the supermarket, but the store has already been found!" Wang Chengrong said helplessly.
"Haha! Do you want to use our money to open a bigger supermarket?" Li Gui asked happily, as if his mouth was suddenly opened.
"Yes, I do think so, but it's a mess now!" Wang Chengrong replied helplessly.
"After you paid the deposit, did you meet the unified dealer?" Li Gui asked anxiously.
"Yes, the deposit receipt is here!" Wang Chengrong said helplessly, and took out the deposit receipt for Lin Wenwen and Li Gui to see.
Lin Wenwen and Li Gui took turns looking at the deposit receipt, and they each thought silently. Wang Chengrong put the deposit receipt back and was secretly helpless. After a while, Lin Wenwen turned to Wang Chengrong and asked depressedly: "How many companies do you say can accept monthly payments, and how big a supermarket can these funds open?"
"I don't know how many companies can accept monthly payments, so I can't calculate how big a supermarket these funds can open!" Wang Chengrong replied helplessly.
"Cheng Rong, you are the most careful to understand how many companies can accept monthly payments. Let's calculate how big a supermarket we can open with this money, and then we can plan!" Li Gui said quickly.
"I've thought about other plans, I don't need a deposit of 50,000 yuan!" Wang Chengrong said thoughtfully.
"You go and find out the situation!" Lin Wenwen turned to Wang Chengrong and interjected.
"Hmm...... Do you agree with this idea?" Wang Chengrong hurriedly asked.
Lin Wenwen did not say anything, and nodded solemnly in affirmation. Seeing such a situation, Li Gui turned to Wang Chengrong and said, "Let's talk about it after you understand the situation!"
"Okay, I'll go first!" Wang Chengrong nodded and said.
Lin Wenwen didn't say anything, and nodded again and again to say goodbye. Li Gui smiled and raised his right hand to signal Wang Chengrong to leave quickly. Wang Chengrong turned around and walked three or four steps, turned around and said with a smile: "Goodbye!"
Lin Wenwen and Li Guimu sent Wang Chengrong away, and then continued to work separately. Wang Chengrong left the construction site of Tianming Building and rushed to the wholesale market in City A to find out if he could pay the supermarket for a month.
Two days later, in the evening, Wang Chengrong called Lin Wenwen and asked Lin Wenwen to go to the dormitory to find him and negotiate the issue of opening a supermarket. Lin Wenwen agreed again and again, and then hung up the phone.
After a while, Lin Wenwen hurried to Wang Chengrong's dormitory under the cool breeze, braving the spring rain, and holding a dark flower umbrella. Wang Chengrong and Li Gui sat on the edge of the bed and on a plastic bench respectively, discussing the issue of opening a supermarket. Wang Chengrong beckoned Lin Wenwen to sit down on the edge of the bed, and then said quickly: "Scripture, many daily necessities companies can accept monthly payment, many instant noodle companies can accept monthly payment, many beer suppliers can accept monthly payment, and many beverage companies can accept monthly payment...... We can save a lot of money, almost no liquidity!"
"How big a supermarket can you see with that money?" asked Lin Wenwen depressedly.
"Three thousand five hundred square meters is no problem!" Li Gui replied first.
"I feel unlikely, the monthly rent per square meter of the store was nearly 23 yuan before, and according to this ratio, the annual rent of the 3,500-square-meter store is nearly 1 million yuan, and the remaining more than 400,000 yuan is not enough at all!" Wang Chengrong calmly retorted.
"You're dizzy, you have more than 400,000 yuan left, which is enough for expenses!" Li Gui said a little excitedly.
"Well, you can arrange it for me verbally!" Wang Chengrong said calmly.
"Okay, okay...... Listen: 200,000 yuan for ordinary decoration of the store, 100,000 yuan for the purchase of business equipment, 100,000 yuan for the purchase of a very small number of goods in cash, and tens of thousands of yuan for the working capital on hand!" Li Gui said a little excitedly.
"Haha! You are naïve and impulsive, you spend 200,000 yuan on decoration, do you want to paste it with paper?" asked Wang Chengrong with a wry smile.
"I can't say it, you can ask the scriptures!" Li Gui replied helplessly, and turned his gaze to Lin Wenwen.
Lin Wenwen didn't say anything, and secretly thought to himself in a daze. Wang Chengrong looked at Li Gui, turned to Lin Wenwen and asked with a smile: "Wenwen, how big do you think you can open a supermarket?"
"Three thousand five hundred square meters is difficult, three thousand twenty-three square meters is about the same!" replied Lin Wenwen.
"We have already paid a deposit of 50,000 yuan, what do you say?" Wang Chengrong asked thoughtfully as he changed the subject.
"Haha! I don't think I can lose 50,000 yuan, so let's open 2,750 square meters!" Li Gui replied first.
"You...... Don't think about money to that extent, right?" Wang Chengrong hurriedly asked.
"Haha! If you don't want money, you don't have to work!" Li Gui replied with a smile.
"You hear clearly: if you want to make money, you must stop in moderation!" Wang Chengrong said solemnly.
"We can't get a result from arguing, let's do what the scriptures say!" Li Gui turned to Lin Wenwen and said excitedly.
"Yes, do what the scriptures say!" Wang Chengrong followed and turned to Lin Wenwen and said.
Li Gui stared at Lin Wenwen, as if he wanted to eat him alive. Wang Chengrong observed his words and looked at his feelings, and was a little at a loss. Lin Wenwen thought for a moment, and said indifferently and depressedly: "I don't have an idea for the time being!"
"Come to play, come to play...... Let's draw lots and decide!" Li Gui hurriedly said.
"Don't you come to this set less, can't you negotiate and decide?" Wang Chengrong asked a little excitedly.
"Haha! We are now opening a 3,23-square-meter supermarket, aren't we losing 50,000 yuan in vain? Before the business has started, who can be willing to lose 50,000 yuan first?" Li Gui replied excitedly.
"The supermarket area has increased by five or six hundred square meters, and we can sell a lot of goods every day and make a lot of money, and it is worth it for us to lose 50,000 yuan!" Wang Chengrong said thoughtfully.
"Haha! I can't see it, can I sell more goods if I have a large area?" asked Li Gui with a sneer.
"Hmm...... I said that normal circumstances are like this, but of course special circumstances are different!" Wang Chengrong replied calmly.
"I don't understand what normal circumstances and special circumstances you say!" Li Gui said a little impatiently.
"Let me make an analogy: opening a 10,000-square-meter supermarket in Songlin Town is a special situation; opening a 60-square-meter small shop in the center of A is a special situation; and opening a supermarket of more than 2,700 square meters or a 3,23-square-meter supermarket in City A is a normal situation!" Wang Chengrong tirelessly explained.
"Okay, okay...... We can't fight for results, so let's draw lots!" Li Gui said impatiently.
"I think it's better to let the scriptures think!" Wang Chengrong said calmly, and turned his gaze to Lin Wenwen.
"The scriptures say that there is no idea, let's draw lots!" Li Gui said first.
"We lose 50,000 yuan as a gamble, do you think it's okay?" Lin Wenwen turned to Li Gui and interjected.
"You, you...... Do you also want to open a 3,23-square-meter supermarket?" Li Gui stammered and asked, looking a little surprised.
Lin Wenwen did not say anything, and nodded solemnly in affirmation. Wang Chengrong was secretly happy when he saw this situation. Li Gui was in a daze for a moment, then turned to Lin Wenwen and said with a smile: "Okay, I will listen to your persuasion, and I will treat it as a loss of 50,000 yuan, but we will not gamble!"
"You talk nonsense, otherwise do you want to use the word 'as'?" Wang Chengrong hurriedly asked.
"Haha......" Li Gui smiled and said nothing.
"In that case, then I'll go out and find a 3,23-square-meter store!" Wang Chengrong said happily.
"You have to be fast, our construction site is about to be capped!" Li Gui said a little anxiously.
"Don't be so impatient, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry!" Wang Chengrong said.
"Haha! We haven't started doing business yet, so we will lose 50,000 yuan first, and we are in a hurry to earn it back!" Li Gui said with a wry smile.
"I'll go out tomorrow to find a storefront, and I'll have it for three or two days!" Wang Chengrong said calmly.
"We have to think clearly this time, we can't lose another 50,000 yuan!" Li Gui reminded.
"Haha! You lost money once, are you afraid of becoming like that?" Wang Chengrong asked mockingly.
"Aren't you afraid of losing money?" Li Gui asked a little excitedly.
"I'm not afraid!" Wang Chengrong said with a smile.
"Haha! You're not afraid, hypocrisy, right?" Li Gui said mockingly.
"Don't make any noise, don't mention 50,000 yuan again. Lin Wenwen interjected.
Wang Chengrong and Li Guidun were speechless and smiled at each other. Lin Wenwen, Wang Chengrong and Li Gui continued to chat until they dispersed at half past ten in the evening.
