Chapter 22: I was almost deceived
After dawn, I went back to the property office and lay down here to sleep, while Han Susu went to the veterinarian, the cats were all injured, and it was better to ask the doctor to come than to go to the hospital.
I slept until noon, and when I woke up, the community had electricity, Li Guodong and Coconut drank tea in the property office, and told me that they had been dealt with, the corpses of the dead mice had been burned, and the corpses of stray cats were still in the community.
"Little master, this is for you." Coconut hurriedly got up, smiled and took out a wad of banknotes from the drawer, and put it in front of me, looking like 20,000 yuan.
I didn't refuse, but I didn't accept the 20,000 yuan, but pushed it to him and said: "The stray cats left last night, they have also made great contributions and efforts to the community, and the 20,000 yuan is considered to be given to them, so use the money to improve their food and living environment." β
"This, that's too much." Coconut was a little surprised, and swallowed.
"It's a little more, but I hope you can send someone to take care of these stray cats." I yawned and asked again, "Where is your Sister Han?" β
"Sister Han is in the stray cat gathering place, and the doctors are treating their injuries."
"Okay, the matter here is also taken care of, and I'll leave." Without further ado, I nodded and said goodbye to the two of them.
Li Guodong couldn't send me in a wheelchair, so he hurriedly said to me: "Little master, I will contact you often in the future, and I will contact you as soon as I have work." β
I waved my hand without looking back, and when I came to the gate of the property, Zhubai was already waiting here, I asked the coconut to tell Han Susu, picked up Zhubai, and rode on the shared tram on the side of the road.
When I was in the Panlong community, it was the first time I shot in Ningzhou in three years, because the death of the gun in the snow also gave me a recognition of myself, to be honest, I have such a little ability, compared with Huo Zhengxiong, it is too far away, and I am now a little afraid that Zhubai will die because of this, so I must be strong, one is to protect myself, and the other is to protect my partner.
This time, the biggest gain is money, but also to solve my urgent need, two checks add up to 700,000, I went directly to the bank, after handling the business has been noon, a simple meal, just look around for the store, I can't sit and eat, I have to use this as start-up capital, do my own business.
Although a professional feng shui master can do it, but in my current state I can only work part-time, first, this is Ningzhou, the Huo family's territory, once there is any problem, the Huo family will come forward to deal with it, and secondly, I have no relationship and no connections, not every time I can meet a big boss like Li Guodong, it is safer to open a shop.
The consumption in Ningzhou is very high, the rent in the urban area is also very expensive, as far as the money in my hand, I want to open a store in the urban area to go into one-third, I choose to live near Ningzhou University, I can also live in the store, so that it is convenient to go to school after the start of school, of course, doing business is not blind, losing money is not good, each area has the characteristics of each region.
For example, near Ningzhou University, there are mostly female students, and women's money is easy to make, so I think opening a boutique is almost the same.
For me, renting a shop is also about feng shui, generally speaking, it is best to have a shop at the corner of the street, usually such a house is called Mong Kok.
I fancy the house at the corner of University Road, although this is the end of University Road, but it is a crossroads, the flow of people is not bad, and it happens that it is being rented here, I called the landlord, through the window to look over, the area of the house is only about 20 square meters, it seems that the purpose of living in the store is to soak in the soup.
The landlord grinded for half an hour to arrive, and it was a fat middle-aged man, a bit of a southern tyrant, with big pants and a white vest, a pair of shabby sandals, and a bunch of keys in his hand.
"If you want to rent, 18,000 a month, bet one and pay three." The landlord was very simple, took out a bag of Huazi and said, "Come to Genhuazi." β
I waved my hand to say that I didn't smoke, I felt a little uncomfortable, such a high rent, opening a boutique is a loss, a bet to pay three, a month of 18,000, three months is 54,000, plus a month's deposit, just the store will have to pay 72,000 money, no wonder no one rents.
"Landlord, can it be cheaper?" I asked, frowning.
The landlord smiled, showed a mouth full of big yellow teeth, waved his hand and said: "Brother, what kind of location do you see this, Mong Kok, leaning on the university town, a prime location, so let's do it, I think it's not easy for a student like you to start a business, as long as you can decide today, I will give you two thousand yuan less!" β
"Three thousand lines?" I asked again.
The landlord squinted his eyes, suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, as long as you can set it today, three thousand will be three thousand, let me tell you brother, I am a very kind person." β
I didn't expect him to be so good at bargaining, and immediately said: "Sign the contract, sign it now!" β
The landlord didn't say anything more, opened the faΓ§ade and told me to wait, and went back to get the contract myself.
I walked around the rented room, but it was quite clean, but the price of 15,000 a month was really expensive, and the boutique really couldn't do it.
At this time, my mobile phone rang, and it was Han Susu calling.
"Hey Zhou Chen, where are you? There is a courier for you here in Panlong Community, and I will send it to you. β
"Courier?" I'm a little weird, I didn't buy anything, and the delivery should have to be delivered to my rented house.
"Then come on, I'm at the intersection of University Road."
"Okay."
I didn't care, I hung up the phone and squatted down the steps, gently scratching my white chin.
After another half an hour, the landlord arrived, handed me the rental contract to read, and when I was looking at the contract, Han Susu came.
"Zhou Chen, what are you doing here?"
"Rent a house, do business." I stared at the contract and replied casually.
Without waiting for me to finish reading it, Han Susu dragged the contract over, and after taking a look, he frowned and said, "Landlord, your rent can catch up with the city center, right?" β
"Oh girl, look at what you said, I can compare with the city center here, but I am also in a prime location, backed by college students......"
"Alright, take it back." Without waiting for the landlord to finish speaking, Han Susu handed the rental contract to the landlord and pulled me out.
"Hey, what do you mean?" The landlord was dissatisfied and shouted loudly.
As soon as I was about to speak, Han Susu said that I was trapped, and after stuffing me into the co-pilot, he drove away, looking a little angry.
