The supermarket owner didn't want to be cut by Li Annie for 10,000 yuan, so he said hello to Li Annie and Jiang Haoran, and then ran out to tell his employees to stop quickly, move all the goods to the supermarket, and no longer sell them, invite the customers out of the supermarket, and then call the landlord to come over.

About twenty minutes later, the landlord arrived.

The landlord is an old man in his sixties, who looks very bookish, wears glasses, has gray and white hair, and is dressed relatively ordinarily.

The supermarket owner asked the landlord to sit down, and then introduced to him: "Mr. Qin, these two young people want to rent your shop, I just want to make an introduction, you can talk." ”

The landlord's name is Qin Jiyuan, he is a university professor, his wife is a high school teacher, the old couple are retired, and their son stays abroad to develop after studying abroad, and his career is not bad, so he wants to take them abroad, but Qin Jiyuan and his wife are reluctant to live abroad and do not like to leave the familiar living environment.

In China, they don't have to spend their son's money at all, the retirement salary of the old couple is almost more than 20,000 yuan, a few years ago, they bought a suite, a shop, all of which are second-hand houses at a low price, such as this shop in Baiguan, the rental money is twice as much as the retirement salary, and this day is naturally leisurely and comfortable.

Li Annie said respectfully: "Hello, old man, my surname is Li, my name is Annie, this is my friend Jiang Haoran, we want to open a store to make a small investment, I don't know what is the minimum rental price of your store?"

Qin Jiyuan looked at Li Anni, then at Jiang Haoran, and said in a deep voice: "I have this store, if you want to rent, there are several requirements, one is that the rent has risen, and now it has to be fifty-five thousand a month, and it is a one-year rent, and the second is that you can't do illegal and criminal things after renting, if this kind of thing happens, I have the right to take back the store, the deposit and rent will not be refunded, and the third is that you can't engage in conflicts with your neighbors, and you have to talk about environmental sanitation." ”

Li Annie was still honest at this time: "Mr. Qin, these are for sure, don't worry, we are going to open a small bar." ”

Qin Jiyuan let out an "oh" and nodded, this is no problem, his son often goes to bars and western restaurants after returning to China, which is a part of the life of the so-called white-collar elites.

Li Annie said again: "Mr. landlord, and this rent is still a little high, you also know the terrain here, it's not too good, so, what about this rent, I think so, you don't go up 10,000, 5,000, 50,000 a month, it's very difficult to do business, we have just invested in entrepreneurship, and the funds are also very tight, you see ......."

Qin Jiyuan looked at the delicate Li Annie and said in a deep voice, "This ...... It's not impossible to have a little less, but you can have too much at once, you can be a thousand less, fifty-four thousand a month......"

"No, it's 50,000. Li Annie pointed to the supermarket owner and said, "Mr. landlord, look at this boss, the current business is really difficult to do, to be honest, I look at the terrain here, you suddenly raised such a high rent, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to rent out, after all, the location is not very good." ”

Qin Jiyuan was silent and silent, this location is indeed not very good, the street in front of him is full of barbecue food, his area is not small, and it is not easy to rent it to restaurants, or the advertisements have been out for more than a week and have not come to see, two people in the middle called to ask, as soon as they heard that the shop rent is 55,000 a month, they hung up the phone directly.

In fact, even if he doesn't raise the rent now, the supermarket owner can't do it, the supermarket business is difficult to do, unlike a few years ago, now there are more, the competition is big, the profit is getting lower and lower, but the labor is getting higher and higher, and it is strange not to go out of business.

"Mr. landlord. Li Annie stared at Qin Jiyuan and said, "We really want to rent, but if you think that 50,000 yuan can't be rented, let's go find it somewhere else, after all, both parties have to be willing." ”

Qin Jiyuan stared at Li Annie, this girl's expression seemed to be very resolute, if she didn't agree to rent 50,000 yuan, she would definitely be ready to go, and after hesitating for a while, she said: "Okay, 50,000 is 50,000, but I have the conditions to add, do you sign a short-term lease or a long-term lease?"

"How long is a short-term rental? How long is a long-term rental?"

"A short-term lease is a one-year lease, which means that you are not sure, sign for a year, and then after the one-year expiration period, you either renew it or leave. Qin Jiyuan introduced, "Long-term leases are generally signed for at least five years, or ten years. ”

"Of course we're going to sign a long-term lease for a ten-year term. "No one wants to do business for just a year and a half, and the longer the business is booming, the better.

Qin Jiyuan nodded and said, "Yes, but your rent this time is much less, I have to add a condition, that is, if your business is very good in the future, this rent will have to rise to 55,000 a month." ”

This business, as long as the business is good, it doesn't matter if the rent is tens of thousands of yuan a year, if the business is poor, he doesn't need to drive people, just like the supermarket owner, he will go by himself.

The supermarket owner rubbed his hands excitedly when he saw that the two sides had reached an agreement so quickly, and his remaining goods were sold even if they were cheap, so he didn't have to worry about it anymore.

"Then let's leave a phone call for each other, and then you can give a deposit at will, and I will print the contract tomorrow and come here to sign it, and I will definitely not be able to get it today." The landlord Qin Jiyuan said as he took out his mobile phone to store Li Annie's phone.

After saving phone numbers, Li Annie asked Qin Jiyuan again: "Landlord boss, how much is this deposit first?"

Qin Jiyuan smiled and said: "This is arbitrary, it doesn't matter how much, anyway, it will be deducted from tomorrow's rent, the deposit, in fact, it is a credit role." ”

Li Annie nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I don't have much cash on me, I have two thousand, okay?"

"Okay. Qin Jiyuan said to the supermarket owner: "Boss Huang, borrow you a pen and paper, and I will issue them a receipt." ”

After waiting for the supermarket owner to bring paper and pens, Qin Jiyuan opened a receipt of 2,000 yuan, indicating the deposit of the address and number of which street and which building.

Li Anni took the receipt in her hand and read it carefully, and only after distinguishing it was correct did she put it in her bag, then took out the money from the wallet, counted twenty pieces of one hundred yuan, and handed it to Qin Jiyuan.

When he typed the receipt, he wrote the names of Jiang Haoran and Li Annie, and after Qin Jiyuan collected the money, he said: "Xiao Li, Xiao Jiang, I will call you tomorrow morning, and then come here to sign a formal contract." ”

When he was about to leave, Qin Jiyuan added a few more words: "By the way, there is one more thing I forgot to mention, that is, I usually charge a deposit of 100,000 yuan for this store, and it will be refunded after the expiration of the lease. ”

Li Annie immediately nodded and replied with a smile: "Then thank you to the landlord." ”

Renting a house or renting a storefront, the normal practice is to charge three months' rent as a deposit, and his store's three-month rent is 150,000, that is to say, the deposit is 150,000, and now he only collects 50,000, which is a real concession.

Qin Jiyuan refused to give in to the rent because it was the amount he deserved, it didn't matter how much the deposit was collected, the deposit was generally collected to prevent the tenant from having problems with the water and electricity bills, and if the house and store were damaged, it would be used for compensation, except for these, the deposit would have no other effect, and it would always have to be repaid when the time came, and Qin Jiyuan himself was not short of money, so it didn't matter how much he collected, and he put it in the bank if he took it.

As a teacher's family, Qin Jiyuan is still willing to help people if possible, and he is quite satisfied with this matter today, the rent increase is basically a good location, Baiguan is the old city, and the flow of people is far less than that of the new development zone, and the rent price is indeed a heaven and an underground, the difference is very big, and his store is actually not easy to rent.

When Qin Jiyuan left, the supermarket owner smiled and said, "Two, how can we trade this?"

There is no need for Li Annie for this, Jiang Haoran said directly: "Okay, let's just go to the bank to transfer money." ”

Because the mobile phone number has not been reissued, the mobile banking is basically bound to the previous number, so there is no way to transfer money by mobile phone, so you can only go to the bank.

The supermarket owner nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, okay, then let's take a rough inventory of the items in the supermarket first, I'll introduce the situation to you, and then move the key, it's best for you to call the locksmith to change the lock." ”

The employees of the supermarket are sitting and chatting in the supermarket at this time, and they don't have to work anyway, so they just wait for the boss to settle their wages and leave.

The boss went out to carefully introduce the goods to Li Annie and Jiang Haoran, and took out the list of last night's inventory and pointed it out to the two of them one by one.

On the list is the total amount of shelves and inventory, and the price after the list is the purchase price, the total is 443,746, and today it was sold 24,000, and there should be a total of about 410,000 left.

The supermarket owner also knew that Jiang Haoran and Li Annie were going to open a bar, not a supermarket, so they even wanted the goods, which really made him a little confused, the price was indeed relatively low, but he didn't dare to bargain anymore, and people didn't open a supermarket, you have to negotiate the price again, they don't want to be in trouble, if they lose, they will lose, and if they want to stay, they will only lose more in the future.

After counting the goods, Li Annie was much more experienced than Jiang Haoran, and after counting, she felt that there was nothing missing, so she nodded and said, "Haoran, I see that it is almost over, make a call and ask the locksmith to change the lock." ”

The supermarket owner hurriedly took a locksmith flyer and handed it to Anne Lee.

Li Annie took out her mobile phone to make a call, and the locksmith arrived about ten minutes later on an electric motorcycle, a man in his thirties, carrying a tool kit, and asked the supermarket owner and Li Annie to ask for an ID card, and then wrote down the name and mobile phone number before changing the lock on the door.

While changing the lock, he said: "We locksmiths must go to the local police station to register, we must register the work we receive and leave a contact number, if something happens in the future, we also get the police station to cooperate with the investigation." ”

As soon as Li Annie heard it, she understood that locksmith is a special and sensitive profession, and if the family is stolen later, they will inevitably be suspected, so they have to leave everywhere to prove their innocence.
