Chapter 16 Opening a Supermarket

In 1997, there was not a single large department store in NC County, and some of them were small stores with a single product.

If you have the funds at this time, opening a large supermarket will definitely be able to lock consumers in advance, win word of mouth, and make money in the future is no problem at all.

Zhou Xuan remembered that the first large supermarket in the county was the entrance of the county No. 1 Middle School, and the opening ceremony was very lively at that time, and everyone was eager to buy.

The supermarket is located at the entrance of No. 1 Middle School, backed by thousands of students and teachers of No. 1 Middle School, and is the center of the South Gate, which is completely a prime location. After the opening, there is a large flow of people, and it is definitely a daily profit.

The second supermarket in NC County is located near the Jiexin Garden, and the third supermarket is located at the Ximen Farmers' Market, both of which are prime locations in various areas, with large foot traffic and booming business.

Of course, now Zhou Xuan wants to suggest that his uncle is definitely not the kind of big supermarket, they have no funds, and they have no experience, Zhou Xuan wants his uncle to open a small supermarket with relatively complete goods.

Zhou Xuan analyzed to his uncle and aunt: "If there is a most suitable store to open in this place now, it must be to open a small supermarket, mainly selling student supplies and daily necessities. ”

Combined with the situation in the next few years, in the first few years, several small shops at the entrance of the fourth middle school were very hot, and every time after school, students who went to buy things lined up. After the opening of No. 1 Middle School, because the nearby infrastructure has not been fully built, there are illegal grass huts built around hundreds of meters, so students have to run a distance of several hundred meters to the gate of No. 4 Middle School to buy things.

Therefore, every time after school, I saw the flow of people at the entrance of No. 1 Middle School flowing along the avenue towards the county, and the scene was spectacular. And several commissaries at the entrance of No. 4 Middle School are even more crowded, and business is so good that it is bursting.

Interestingly, when I was in high school, my uncle rented a house on the street at the entrance of No. 1 Middle School, and it was also a faΓ§ade. But it was only used for living, not for opening a store.

At that time, every time I came to eat, after eating, I liked to take a stool and sit at the door, watching the students of a middle school come and go, especially there were many little beauties inside, which was particularly pleasing to the eye.

Uncle Yu hesitated: "Zhou Xuan, you said to open a small supermarket, is it the kind of daily necessities?"

"My idea is to rely on the student group of No. 4 Middle School and later No. 1 Middle School to open a haberdashery supermarket, which should be larger, at least more than 200 square meters. Unlike other supermarkets, which mainly sell department stores, our supermarkets have department stores and student supplies, so I don't think there will be any problems with business in the future. Uncle and aunt, what do you think?" Zhou Xuan looked at his uncle and aunt.

Without waiting for them to answer, Zhou Xuan continued: "And now the West Gate of the Fourth Middle School has just developed here, and most of the students of the Fourth Middle School are in the old campus. Now the rent here is definitely not expensive, even if you rent five stores in a row, the monthly rent will not exceed 1,000 yuan. The biggest expense is to purchase goods, but this can also be done slowly, and you don't need to drive so much at the beginning. ”

My uncle thought for a moment and asked, "This is still very risky. First of all, we have never opened a supermarket, and the supply of goods must be of good quality and low price, so as to make money and have a good reputation. In addition, this investment is relatively large, including at least one year's rent, decoration, and supply, and at least 100,000 yuan is required. Now we can't come up with the money. ”

"Yes, we can take out a maximum of 30,000 yuan now, and we have to borrow the rest, and it is impossible to find someone to borrow 70,000 yuan now. My aunt also expressed her worries in her heart.

Zhou Xuan had already considered this aspect and said: "There is no problem with the capital, I will have money by next year." When the time comes, you can take out a part of it as an investment. ”

Hearing Zhou Xuan say that he wanted to invest 70,000 yuan, his uncle couldn't believe it: "Zhou Xuan, that's 70,000 yuan, not 70 yuan." Don't be kidding, that's the money!"

My aunt also instructed Zhou Xuan: "Zhou Xuan, don't do bad things!"

Zhou Xuan felt the concern of his uncle and his aunt, and said with a smile: "Uncle, uncle, you are wrong. How could I break the law, I was making money properly. That's right, I submitted to the science fiction world and readers some time ago, and there should be news in the past two weeks. ”

Hearing that Zhou Xuan could actually make money by submitting articles, he still didn't believe it: "We are very pleased that you can make money by writing manuscripts, I believe that the eldest sister and brother-in-law are happier when they hear it, but if you want to say that you can earn tens of thousands of yuan in half a year by manuscript fees, I really don't believe it?"

My aunt also arrived: "Is the manuscript fee so high?"

"If the article is good, the manuscript fee will be high. I still have to see how much I pay for the first manuscript, but I am very sure. Uncle, don't worry, I won't fight a battle that I am not sure of. ”

"That's what I said. In that case, let's wait until you get the manuscript fee. If you can earn tens of thousands of manuscript fees in half a year, then we will build this supermarket. You have the ability to make money and have the courage to do great things, and we will fight for it. Uncle finally made a decision and said, to be honest, I want to see if Zhou Xuan has the ability to invest tens of thousands of yuan.

"Even if he loses money in the end, isn't there still Zhou Xuan? Since he is so capable of making money, he will definitely not be able to treat them badly in the future. Maybe I'll have to rely on Zhou Xuan to take care of him in the future?" The aunt looked at Zhou Xuan, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, and it was in vain that she had always loved this nephew so much.

Zhou Xuan said modestly: "Uncle and aunt laughed, I promise that I will definitely not lose money." If my first project loses money, then what face do I have? Let's work together, and I believe that it will get better and better in the future. ”

"I love to hear that, come, have a drink. Uncle picked up the wine glass and said.

Zhou Xuan also picked up the beer and touched it with his uncle and aunt.

"Cheers!"

This finally dispelled the idea of buying a house for his aunt and took them to another way, Zhou Xuan was very happy and drank two more bottles of beer.

I felt my stomach swell, and I went to the toilet twice in a while. After sitting for a while, Zhou Xuan said goodbye to his uncle and was about to return to school.

Before leaving, I asked my uncle to pay attention to whether there was any mail and remittance slip these days, if there was a remittance slip, let my uncle go to the post office to get the money first, and then come back to get it before he went home after the mid-term exam in the next cycle, Zhou Xuan also wanted to buy something to go back.

Because Zhou Xuan's reply address is written in the address of his uncle's house, the payee is also written as his uncle.

He doesn't have an ID card yet, and it is more troublesome to withdraw money. It's best to ask your uncle to re-apply for a new card, and give it directly to Zhou Xuan, and the future manuscript fee will be directly transferred to this card, and I'll talk to my uncle next time.

It's been almost a month since he came back from rebirth, and he hasn't seen his parents, sister, or grandparents, and Zhou Xuan misses them very much.

On the way back, Zhou Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, he finally began to change the fate of his uncle. The next thing is for them to grow and be happy for the rest of their lives.
