Loepie Road is located on the west side of Brooklyn, near Chinatown on Eighth Avenue in Sunset Park, so there are more and more Chinese people living here, and a new Chinese community has gradually formed in recent years.

In front of a six- or seven-meter-high factory building that is some years old, a large truck full of goods is parked, all of which are essential repair tools for auto repair shops, and several porters unload back and forth several times.

Brian, who beckoned the workers to place these tools in the store, was keenly aware that someone was peeping at him, and immediately looked around vigilantly, and after looking around, he found that his big boss Gu Ren was standing at the front of the big truck and looking at him quietly.

"How about this store I chose?" Seeing that it was Gu Ren, Brian let down his guard and stepped forward with a smile.

Gu Ren took a serious look at this small building, although he hadn't entered it yet, he couldn't see the situation inside, but the door was very spacious, and there was a platform with a large area, enough to park four or five cars, which was quite suitable for opening an auto repair shop.

The nearest shop is more than 10 meters away, so if you start a car wash business outside in the future, you don't think it will affect your neighbors.

After looking around, Gu Ren nodded with satisfaction and asked, "This bungalow is quite good, with a basement?" ”

"Of course, there is a basement, but I found it strictly according to the boss's instructions."

After saying that, Brian suddenly asked, "Aren't you curious about how much rent is here?" ”

"This is Brooklyn, not Manhattan, how much can I rent?"

Gu Ren's purpose in opening this auto repair shop is not to make a lot of money, so he naturally doesn't care about the rent, and the housing prices in Brooklyn are relatively low compared to the entire New York City, let alone the rent.

Brian looked at Gu Ren with a tyrant attitude, as if he didn't care about the money at all, and couldn't help but shrug his nose and said, "Okay, you're right, this is indeed Brooklyn, but the rent is not cheap, 80,000 a year." ”

"Only 80,000?"

Gu Ren was a little surprised, how could the rent be so cheap! Although I haven't gone in to see it, there are only two floors plus a basement, and it is still a shop facing the street, which is only 80,000 a year.

Brian rolled his eyes and said: "I know boss, you are very rich, but the rent of 80,000 yuan a year is indeed not cheap, if I didn't see that this building used to open an auto repair shop, and there are a lot of repair equipment left behind, I would definitely not choose here." ”

The security of Loepfe Road is not very good, hovering in the top three of the most chaotic streets in Brooklyn all year round, not to mention that many Chinese and Asian Americans have lived here in recent years, and a Chinese community has been formed, but people who come to live here are also forced to choose because they can't afford to buy or rent a house in Eighth Avenue Chinatown, so they can only choose nearby.

In the United States, once a community is not safe, the housing prices there will fall, Lofe Road dare not say that it is the cheapest place in New York, but at least in Brooklyn can be ranked second, and the rent of 80,000 yuan a year is very high.

"Brian, I trust your decision, since you must have your reasons for choosing here."

Gu Ren said as he looked at the factory building in front of him and said, "Don't you take me in to have a look?" ”

After hearing those words, Brian's heart was a little touched, and then he smiled: "Of course, you are the boss, you can watch anywhere here." ”

The two entered the store one after the other.

"I chose this place, not only because it has repair equipment left over from the previous tenant, but most importantly, it is big and spacious enough, and the owner needs a basement!"

Brian was very familiar with this place, and while leading Gu Ren to visit, he introduced: "This factory was built in the sixties, and was originally used to make canned food, because of the relationship between the Soviet Union and the United States during the Cold War, the factory owner at that time deliberately dug a large basement until the economic crisis in the late seventies, after the factory owner went bankrupt, it was confiscated and auctioned by the bank......

Brian obviously decided to rent this small factory with a history of almost sixty years after a detailed investigation, and the introduction was also straightforward, especially after he explained in detail that the basement of the factory had sound insulation, which made Gu Ren very satisfied.

Gu Ren wanted a basement in order to be able to put some weapons, so a basement specially prepared for the Cold War was very much in line with the requirements in his heart, not to mention that this factory was in Lofe Road, a place where even the police were unwilling to come over to patrol, both in terms of security and concealment.

He suddenly asked, "How big is this?" ”

Brian thought for a while and said: "The total area is about 800 square meters, but the landlord is separated by one floor, and if you add up and down, it is almost 1,300 square meters, and if you count the basement, it will be more than 1,500 square meters." ”

"Take me upstairs and have a look."

There is nothing to see on the first floor, except for some leftover car repair equipment, and because of the fact that it used to be a car repair shop, the floor and walls are covered with dirty black oil stains, and although it has not been used for several years, you can still smell the smell of engine oil.

Then the two of them stepped on the simple steel staircase to the second floor, and the environment here was much better than the first floor.

The second floor of the partition was divided by the former tenant into four rooms, except for the largest warehouse dedicated to storing auto parts, about 300 square meters, the remaining three rooms are simply renovated, one is for the workers to rest, one is for the boss to work, and the other is a bathroom.

After looking at the second floor of the partition, the two went to the basement to take a look, the same as Brian introduced, this basement was carefully built by the original businessman, although it is now very dirty, but the basement wall has been reinforced by multiple layers, not only has an independent diesel power supply system, but also isolates several rooms, and there are special excretion pipes, and the sound insulation effect is also very good.

After visiting a circle, such a big place, and the planning is very good, the rent is only 80,000 yuan a year, Gu Ren is very satisfied and said: "Good job Brian." ”

Brian smiled at the corner of his mouth and said, "I've completed the probationary period?" ”

Gu Ren nodded: "Of course, your probationary period is over, so let's sort it out here, and we will officially open for business when we recruit full workers." ”

Bryce said: "It's easy to sort out, and it will be open next month, but there are still some problems with the license." ”

"What's the problem? Need I do something? Gu Ren was puzzled.

Brian said, "The name, you haven't decided on the name of this repair shop yet. ”

The name of the store!

Hearing this, Gu Ren pondered for a few seconds, then opened his mouth and said, "Let's call it a speed car repair shop." ”

"Speed? Does it mean anything? ”

"It doesn't mean anything, just take it, if you insist on it, it's that I want our shop to repair the car as fast as possible."
