Seoul is actually a very strange place. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The gap between the rich and the poor is unimaginable, and Jiangnan and Jiangbei are almost two worlds.

Even if you've heard it before, it's not the same thing as seeing it with your own eyes.

This is directly reflected in the rent of the storefront, that is, the polarization is extremely serious.

It took me more than half a day to go around and around, and I looked at more than a dozen stores in the entire urban area, but I couldn't find a suitable choice.

Summarizing what we have seen along the way, there is a general trend.

That is, the rent of the bustling business district and the so-called old city and district are fundamentally two worlds, the former is undoubtedly the style of a modern metropolis, and the latter is not much different from most of the urban and rural areas of the Celestial Empire.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the rent of a shop in the business district and the rent of a shop in the old city and district are two different things.

The storefront here in Gangnam is almost 750,000 won per square meter of monthly rent.

What is this concept? If you want to build an entire 100-square-meter store in such a place, the entire investment of 150 million won is just enough for two months' rent......

If it is a small alley in the old city, the layout of the house is generally very small, and there is even a kind of independent small building of only seven or eight square meters, with two floors above and below. The second floor is actually more like an attic, only half a story high, and there are no stairs, so you have to use a ladder to go up and down the stairs.

This kind of store is about 200,000 won, which is equivalent to more than 1,000 yuan, and it is rented to you upstairs and downstairs.

But the question is, what can you do with this kind of small storefront? It's almost the same to open a bubble tea shop with no seats and only for pedestrians to pass by.

In the old city, most of the buildings are small buildings like this, and it is difficult to find a slightly more spacious place.

Most of the locations that can meet this requirement are in the bustling commercial areas, and the shop rent prices are staggeringly high.

Cai Pingping couldn't help but feel worried, she really didn't know if she didn't see it, and she was startled when she saw it.

Let's make a comparison with the actual situation of the magic capital in her cognition, a 100-square-meter store in the bustling commercial section has a monthly rent of about 100,000 yuan. The same size of shops in the urban-rural junction and the community is about 10,000 yuan.

Of course, there is a gap, but where can it be as outrageous as Seoul?

What's more, even in the old city and district, there is no suitable place that looks like a good place. Most of the stores are cramped, which is far from the situation that Cai Pingping expected.

Of course, the slightly larger stores are not completely absent, but they have generally been rented out for a long time, and the business situation seems to be good, there is no possibility of changing hands, and it is not the turn of these people to pick.

"What the hell is this place, I can't even find a decent storefront, otherwise the price will be ridiculously high......"

When she returned to the car again, Cai Pingping's depression that she had suppressed for a long time finally broke out, and she complained indignantly.

"I really didn't see any very satisfying choices...... Rao Hong sighed in agreement.

Wakazakura and Zhao Minlong looked at each other, although the latter did not understand Chinese, but it was obvious that the two in the back seat were very depressed.

The two whispered a few words in Korean and discussed what to do next.

"Actually, Wakazakura Nuna, the range of these places you chose is a bit small, right?" Zhao Minlong asked tentatively.

Based on the experience of running down the road, it is easy to conclude that the places Wakazakura is looking for have a common feature, that is, the banks of the Han River within a radius of several kilometers with Iksandong as the center.

"Isn't it for the convenience of Rainbow Oni and them!" Wakazakura muttered aggrievedly, "And we must have had to run between the two ends of the ...... a lot at first."

Cai Pingping aside, Rao Hong and Liu Guanghui are married. If the tea house is located too far away, either the husband and wife will be separated, or there will definitely be one person who wastes a lot of time and energy on the way back and forth every day.

If you want to blame Naxon's Minerva Building, why did it choose one of the most prosperous sections of Gangnam - the junction of Yeoksam-dong and Samseong-dong.

"Although we are small in Korea, Seoul is not so big!" Zhao Minlong made a joke and made a suggestion, "Why don't I take you to see other places?"

Along the way, he roughly understood the selection criteria of Cai Pingping and Rao Hong, as a native of Seoul, he naturally knew where to find a more suitable choice, but the distance was probably a little far.

Wakazakura translated this suggestion to the two sisters in the back seat, and the two of them were hoping that someone could come up with another plan, so they immediately agreed without saying a word.

This time it was a long way off, after the Han River, Namsan Park, and Dongdaemun, until the junction of Jongno and Seongbuk-gu.

"This is a residential area between Changdeokgung Palace, Seoul National University, and Sungkyunkwan University, what do you think?" found a vacant space on the side of the road and parked the car, and after getting out of the car, Zhao Minlong walked up to Wakazakura and asked.

This is obviously an old city, and there are no sidewalks, so the width of the street is barely two cars in parallel, and if any car is parked on the side of the road, it will immediately become a one-way street.

This kind of road is already a wide avenue in this area, and there are many alleys on both sides of the road that are only accessible to bicycles.

However, compared to the buildings in the old city and district that I have seen before, the houses in this area are generally larger. Although they are basically below three floors, they are not as fragmented as the previous small attics, and there are really many houses of more than 100 square meters.

"It looks okay, but it's a bit far away. After listening to Ruoying's translation, Cai Pingping nodded, but still had doubts.

"If you take the subway, it's about nine stops from us. Line 2 of Xuanling, Gangnam to Education University to transfer to Line 3, then highway bus passing, Yushui, Yaoshui, Zhongwu Road, Eulji Road 3rd Street, and finally get off at Jongno 3rd Street, not far away. If you can drive yourself, it's pretty convenient. ”

Zhao Minlong took out his mobile phone to find the Seoul subway route, checked the most convenient route, and counted them one by one. Wakazakura tilted her head and nodded in agreement as she performed simultaneous interpretation.

If you compare it with the magic capital, the distance of nine subway stations is indeed not too far. Cai Pingping nodded silently, and was half convinced.

"It's not convenient to squeeze the subway all day long, right? If you really want to open the tea house near here, it seems that Sister Hong, you have to learn to drive." She turned her head to ask Rao Hong's opinion.

"I got my driver's license in China, so I don't know if I can use it in Korea. What if I have to take a driver's license test in South Korea, what if I don't know Korean?" Rao Hong was a little worried, she had just learned dozens of daily words in Korean, and if she wanted to take the Korean written test, it would be ironclad.

"That's okay. If you have a Celestial Dynasty driver's license, take it and take it to the driving school, and then take a written test to exchange it for a Korean driver's license. And there are also Chinese written exams, which do not necessarily have to be taken in Korean. It is said that there are only 20 questions, and you can pass the test with 60 points, so it is very convenient. Wakazakura hurriedly comforted her.

"Any questions?"

Zhao Minlong saw that they discussed for a long time, and asked suspiciously, Wakazakura gave him a rough idea, and he even nodded his head, which can be regarded as a certification of the statement about the Chinese written test and difficulty of the driver's license.

"Not only that, but Executive Zhao of the studio has long said that he can give Brother Kewei and Brother Guanglong a car, because they don't have a driver's license, and the company and the place where they live are not far away, so they don't usually need it. If Rao Hongnuna wants to use the car, you can ask them to lend it to her first. Zhao Minlong reminded.

Wakazakura nodded and translated this passage into Chinese.

"Well, the problem with the driver's license and the car is solved. So is there a suitable store for rent around here?" Cai Pingping was also a little interested at this time, "Is it too late to look for it on the Internet at this time?"

It's almost three o'clock in the afternoon, and more than half of the day is already over. At this time, I started to search, found a suitable storefront, and then waited to contact the landlord, I guess it was going to be dark, right?

That's why Cai Pingping asked for other people's opinions like this.

"I do know a place, not far from here, why don't you go over and have a look first?" Zhao Minlong unexpectedly disagreed.

In fact, before going out, Zhao Changchang specially explained to him, if Rao Hong and Cai Pingping found a satisfactory location first, forget it, if they can't find a suitable choice, they might as well go to "that place" to have a look.

So Zhao Minlong led the three girls to a three-story orange building, which occupies a large area, about 30 to 50 meters long and wide, and is located at the intersection of two intersecting two-lane roads. There is also a small communal parking lot at the back of the building.

The building space on the first floor is divided into two parts, left and right, by a staircase and a large gate in the center, with a bar on the left and a billiard house on the right, both of which are elegantly decorated.

"This building is called the Minglun Building, which is the private property of Zhao Chang's family, the second and third floors are rented to the nearby Daxue Road Chinese Church, and the bar downstairs is opened by Zhao Chang himself, if you can retain those employees here, the rent is negotiable." ”

Standing in front of the building, Zhao Minlong introduced.

In fact, this bar was opened by Zhao Cangting during his college studies in order to have a place to stay with his fox friends and dogs, and hired a few classmates who were unable to go to college because of his grades or family background in high school, which can be regarded as finding a job for them.

He hadn't been to this place much since his father had forcibly sent him to serve in the army. It wasn't originally a business to make money, so I didn't pay attention to it, but let my personal financial advisor and assistants like Zhao Minlong come over to take stock of the accounts on a monthly basis.

At this point in time, the bar has not yet opened, but through the brown glass, you can clearly see the internal environment inside.

Cai Pingping stared at the spatial structure of the bar, while Rao Hong looked back and forth at the surrounding environment, and both of them nodded frequently.

"If you don't dislike it, this bar is about 300 square meters, and it's 15 million won a month. No deposit or prepayment is required, and it can be credited to the account designated by him on time at the end of each month. How, what do you mean?" Zhao Minlong asked with a smile.

The equivalent of RMB is more than 80,000 yuan, although it is a little high, but the actual area is much larger than expected. And with no upfront payment and no deposit required, it's almost impossible to find a better option.

As soon as they listened to Ruoying's translation, Cai Pingping and Rao Hong's eyes shot out of joy.

p.s. Korean male pronounces his brother as Henning, which is closer to the pronunciation of 'brother', and after consideration, it was decided to write brother, taking into account both transliteration and paraphrasing, and will not be explained separately in the future.

I'm really sorry for the year, everyone. It is estimated that there is only one watch today, plus the one watch owed yesterday, it is two watches, and it is rolling all over the ground......

By the way, I'm not making it up, I looked for the real scene of Google Maps for a long time before I took a fancy to this Minglun "building". Upstairs is really a Chinese church on University Street, and there are Chinese character signs!
