Chapter 60: The Antique Mall
Ask for Sanjiang tickets, the results of Sanjiang tickets are really miserable, the brothers who read the book should support it! It didn't take a minute, I hope that the brothers who support this book will vote, thank you.
I built a group, identify the fake and keep the truth, group number: 361638021, the verification information is the title of the book, and the city hides the truth.
Chen Qing's family inquired so clearly, because they also want to rent the façade there, if they can't rent directly from the landlord, but from the second landlord, they need to provide a high transfer fee, if the owner of the Four Arts Gallery changes, the owner will take back all the shops and rent them out, as long as the rent is paid.
"Are you really sure that the Four Arts Gallery is going to be sold?" He Biyun asked.
"Uncle Meng, there is one of our fellows in the Four Arts Pavilion, he mentioned this to me two days ago, and asked us if we want to rent a house, if we change the landlord, there is no transfer fee for the two shops under the Four Arts Pavilion.
However, the price of these four art galleries is a bit high, where did ordinary people get so much money to take over? This is why I will mention it when you talk about starting an antique business today, after all, your family now has the funds to take over. ”
Meng Guangtao said with a smile, "We do have this idea, see if we can ask your fellow countryman out, let's find out where the situation is, if it is suitable, we will buy it directly." ”
Originally, he didn't dare to think of buying a large shop in the antique street, but now, he has full confidence to buy the shop, so that he will have no worries about the future.
Doing antiques business is not every day, and if the business is not good, you have to pay high rent, so few people can afford it.
The reason why some merchants on the antique street can't survive is not that they don't have the ability, but that they don't have good luck.
If the house is their own, no matter what happens in the middle, they can make a steady profit without losing money.
Meng Guangtao and the others originally wanted to buy a store, so that their family didn't have to run all over the street to find a storefront.
In the next few days, Chen Qing helped Meng Guangtao run the house, and his position could only be on top of Han Peacock.
There is also a reason why Chen Qing is so enthusiastic, if Meng Guangtao's family buys the Four Arts Pavilion, he can rent one of the two shops below the Four Arts Pavilion, so that he may become the only restaurant on the antique street.
The flow of people on this antique street is too large, and it is impossible to lose money by opening the only restaurant here.
It turns out that they don't want to rent a house, they can rent from the second landlord, not to mention the things in the store, but also to pay the transfer fee, plus the rent of their own house, it is not easy to turn over for a few years.
This time, there is no need to pay a transfer fee, and there is no need to receive the inventory of the previous family, which can save a lot of money, such a good thing, but it is hard to find.
Chen Qing was busy helping Lao Meng's family buy a house, and Han Peacock didn't have much time to shop for treasures on the antique street.
And he has been lucky recently, but he still understands the truth of excess, so he is also happy to stay in the dark for a while.
Without the pressure of life, Han Peacock follows Chen Rui out of the stall every day to help their family sell steamed buns.
The shops on the antique street are very good, and Meng Guangtao has also been on the antique street for four or five years, so he also knows about the Four Arts Museum, but after a little understanding of the situation, Meng Guangtao made an appointment with the owner through Chen Qing and their fellow villagers.
The other party was really anxious to get rid of the house and cash out a large amount of money, seeing that the Meng family really wanted to buy the house, they opened a very real price, and the two sides negotiated the price after a morning.
Although the house is not cheap, it is really nothing for the Meng family, who has just made a windfall, and the four-story small building covering an area of 100 square meters was sold for 15 million.
The lower floor is 60,000 per square meter, 100 square meters is 6 million, and the second floor is 30,000 per square meter, a total of 300 square meters are worth 9 million, a total of 15 million, and the handling fees generated by various transactions are paid by the seller.
In this way, Meng Guangtao directly invested 15 million to buy a small building, which is definitely a big deal at the moment when the property market is in a downturn.
Of course, spending a lot of money to buy this small building can preserve its value, and it can be regarded as a means of preventing inflation.
Although the property market is sluggish, the value of shops will not depreciate at any time, but there are many real estate speculation groups now.
Without the hype of the real estate speculation group, and many people are afraid of being covered and do not dare to invest in real estate, the Meng family will buy this small building so easily.
The house formalities were completed within a week, and they immediately began to decorate the house, and before that, the Meng family had already hired a decoration company to design the new store.
Meng Guangtao is an old man, he knows that he doesn't have much ability, if he inherits the business of the Four Arts Museum and re-operates antiques related to qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, he may be able to use the original source of customers to support the business.
But he didn't have the professional knowledge to match it, so he didn't have the ability to take over the resources of the Shen family, after all, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are not something that anyone can play.
Meng Guangtao was born as a hawker, and he usually makes a small fuss, but now that he has bought such a building, if he is allowed to run it, then he really can't use the four-story building.
At that time, he just wanted to grab this building, but he didn't think about how to use it, and when he bought it, they were dumbfounded, and it was Han Peacock who reminded him that he made a decision.
He started as a hawker, and he made a burden and walked the streets and alleys, earning hard-earned money, even if the hawkers on the antique street were exposed to the sun and rain all year round, it was also very hard.
Now he has bought a four-story small building, with a total usable area of 400 square meters, and he must not be able to use it all, so he simply cleaned up the house, completely opened up the upper three floors, and used some special counters to divide the whole room into a large number of stalls.
Although the counter is made of glass, it is all made of bulletproof glass, and there is an old-fashioned iron lock on it, if you put something in, the lock is locked, unless you smash it with a heavy hammer, there is really no way to open it easily.
Meng Guangtao directly transformed this small building into a special shopping mall, all the counters on the mall are rented, long-term rental, one day can also be rented, of course, you can rent for a few hours.
To put it bluntly, this is a temporary place for Meng Guangtao to prepare a temporary place for all the hawkers and itinerant merchants to stay.
This shopping mall, which Meng Guangtao called an antique mall, also appeared, because it was rented according to the counter, so the price of renting a counter was not high.
The counter does not occupy a large space, a shelf in the back, a counter in front and a chair in the middle, a total of only about three square meters, and the rent of each square is 1,000 yuan, that is, such a stall costs 3,000 yuan a month.
Although this price is not low, compared with a doorman room of about 30 square meters below, the rent of 30,000 yuan per month is a headache for some people, and it is even more unbearable for some hawkers.
In fact, if you are in the antique business, how many goods do you need to put out for sale?
Generally, most of the goods placed in the antique shop are almost all modern artworks, and one or two of these things can be displayed as samples for customers to see.
Therefore, the effect of opening a store outside is actually similar to the effect of a counter that Meng Guangtao has set up now, but its rent is only one-tenth of that of opening a store outside.
After Meng Guangtao bought this small building, only one of the three façade rooms below was left by the Meng family, and the other two were rented by Han Peacock and Chen Qing.
Although Han Peacock hasn't figured out what to do yet, he won't suffer a loss just by earning a transfer fee.
And Chen Qing rented one, obviously to cook a restaurant business, because the house is not big, so he can only make some fast food and vegetarian food, with this house can his business be stable.
However, the rent is really not cheap, 30 square meters of front house, a month's rent will be 30,000 yuan, an average of 1,000 yuan a day, and at least 2,000 buns a day will be sold to return to the capital.
If it weren't for Han Peacock's strong suggestion, Chen Qing's family would have wanted to give up when they heard this rent price, but under Han Peacock's strong suggestion, Chen Qing finally rented it.
This house is five meters wide and more than six meters long, which is only about 30 square meters, but it costs 30,000 yuan in rent every month, no matter what Chen Rui thinks, she can't think of how to earn back the rent.
"Why did you agree to rent it? We sell at most 1,000 buns a day, and all of them earn only 2,000 yuan, and now that we have rented a house, the little money we earn in the future is not enough for the rent. Chen Rui looked at her husband who was arranging the table and chairs and complained.
Chen Qing said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this, you just wait to collect the money, in the future, we don't have to move tables and chairs, and we don't have to push the stove around, the work in the shop will be mine in the future, and you will be in charge of collecting money." ”
"I really want to be so easy, but I'm afraid that the money I collect will not be enough to pay the rent." Chen Rui said angrily.
"Sure enough, you'll just have to wait and see." Chen Qing said with a smile.
Chen Rui looked at Chen Qing suspiciously: "Are you hiding something from me, and besides, what is the name of our steamed bun shop?" Now that the documents are complete, the name should be filled in, right? ”
"Hehe, wait a while, we'll unveil the plaque of Uncle Meng's house and you'll know it." Chen Qingdao.
"What is Xiao Han busy with today? Why hasn't it come yet? Aren't we going to order steamed buns to sell when we open today? We gave Uncle Meng a total of 500,000 yuan for rent and deposit, but we have saved this money for several years, if we don't make money, we will have to drink the northwest wind in the future. Chen Rui said in a depressed mood.
"We're going to make money, you have to trust me." Chen Qingdao.
Chen Rui glanced at Chen Qing and said: "Of course I believe in you, if I don't believe you, I won't marry you, you tell me, what are Xiao Han and Xiao Zhu doing at home?" ”
"Hehe, you see they're coming." Chen Qing pointed outside.
