Chapter 113: Finalizing the Storefront
This street was newly built in the first two years, surrounded by commercial shops, not far from the residence of foreigners, the flow of people, and most of them are willing to spend money, but correspondingly, the housing prices here are relatively high.
"If you really fancy this place, I don't mind if you rent it." Lin Changshan said.
There are two storefronts to see, one is due for rent, located at the end of the street, with a large area, and the other is closed due to poor management, located in the middle of the street, with an area of about 20 square meters, not big or small, Song Yuhua looked a little moved.
However, when she asked about the price, she was immediately persuaded to quit, her clothes took the affordable route, and according to the high rent here, I am afraid that most of the profits every month will be handed over to the landlord.
Song Yuhua shook his head at Lin Changshan, and the two went to the next place.
Time passed, and the sun gradually set to the west, until it was blocked by the mountains in the distance, leaving only the glow of the sky shining brilliantly.
looked at four places in a row, none of them were satisfactory to Song Yuhua, and she didn't say anything after she was tired for a day, so she asked Lin Changshan to accompany her for a day, which made her a little embarrassed.
Seeing that there were several small restaurants not far away, Song Yuhua patted the shoulder of the person in front of him, "Brother Lin, stop and rest first and eat something." β
The bicycle stopped in front of a noodle restaurant, and the two of them were not picky, so they went straight to order two bowls of sauerkraut noodles.
I was just going to eat some, but who knew that the salty, sour, crisp and tender taste made Song Yuhua's eyes light up, and the speed couldn't help but speed up.
"Brother Lin, is there still a faΓ§ade?" Song Yuhua asked.
Compared with Song Yuhua's slightly elegant behavior, Lin Changshan was different, maybe he was really hungry, he gulped on the noodles, and only heard a sound of snoring, but in two or three minutes, only a bowl of noodles was left with soup.
Song Yuhua was silent for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "Do you want another bowl?" β
"No need." Lin Changshan shook his head, and then began to answer the question just now.
"There is another place, Lianhua Road, which is in a good location, it used to be a large market area, and then it developed into a cheap commercial area, and there is a railway station not far away, so there is a lot of traffic, and the housing prices are low, but because of this, the security may not be very good."
Song Yuhua nodded, "Let's go and see it first." β
When I came to the place, sure enough, as Lin Changshan said, the old-fashioned low bungalows and three- and four-story cement buildings around were staggered and crowded together, the walls had already changed color because of the wind and rain, and even peeled off a little, and the streets were full of people coming and going, but looking at the clothes, most of them seemed to be cheap goods.
Song Yuhua secretly thought that the price of her clothes was quite appropriate.
Accompanied by Lin Changshan, Song Yuhua inquired about several stores that were ready to rent or sell, and finally settled on a shop on the street that originally sold fabrics.
In the past, there were few ready-to-wear clothes, and the fabric was more cost-effective, so most people liked to buy fabrics and go home to do it themselves, but now it is different, with the progress of the reform and opening up era, people's pursuit of wearing is no longer just to avoid the body and keep warm.
Song Yuhua wanted to buy the faΓ§ade directly, even if the money was not enough to borrow something, but the landlord was unwilling to sell it and only rented.
No, it is rare to meet such a satisfactory place, and Song Yuhua no longer insists on signing a one-year lease contract with the landlord.
The money earned these days is all gone, and only a few dozen dollars remain.
The fabric in the landlord's store still needs to be moved, so Song Yuhua has to wait for two days, just in time, she has to find a craftsman who knows how to work wood, and order a few hangers and hundreds of hangers.
It was dark, the sunset was over, the whistle of the train was accompanied by the sound of a clang, and another train entered the station.
A yellow-faced woman in her thirties, carrying a bag in one hand and a little girl of eight or nine years old in the other, walked out of the train station.
"Mom, I'm so tired, won't Dad come to pick us up?" The little girl raised her innocent face and asked with confusion.
The woman squatted down and touched the little girl's hair lovingly, "Dad is busy, Niuniu is a big child, you have to be sensible, let's go find Dad." β
The little girl nodded, stopped talking, and looked curiously at the strange and novel surroundings around her. Suddenly, she stopped and pointed not far away, "Mom, I see Dad!" β
The woman thought that she recognized the wrong person, and was about to comfort her daughter for a few words, but her eyes subconsciously followed the direction she was pointing, and she was stunned, the burden in her hand fell to the ground, and the expression on her face was gloomy.
Not far away, Song Yuhua sat in the back seat of Lin Changshan's bicycle, suddenly pressed a small pebble when turning, the body shook, Song Yuhua subconsciously grabbed the hem of Lin Changshan's waist, and after two seconds, the body regained its balance, and then let go and re-grasped the iron steel ring under the seat cushion.
Lin Changshan looked at the road ahead, didn't look back, and only said, "If you can't sit still, you can grab my clothes." β
Song Yuhua chuckled, "No need, it's okay." β
Neither of them noticed, and in the crowd across the street, two pairs of eyes, one large and one small, were staring at them intensely.
"Mom, who's the sister behind Dad?"
The little girl asked suspiciously, but this question was destined to be unanswered.
β¦β¦
The Lin family's shop and the school are two directions, refusing Lin Changshan's suggestion to send her to the school gate, Song Yuhua got off the bus halfway through the road and took the bus back.
During the summer vacation, the school was very deserted, and I only saw a figure in the middle of the ring, the yellow light stretched the figure very long, and the breeze swayed through the shadows of the trees, which made people a little creepy.
Song Yuhua tightened the small satchel on his body and quickened his pace.
Behind the shadow of the tree, Du Weiwei showed half of her body, her face was gloomy, and she muttered to herself: "It seems that Gu Jun didn't come back to look for her." β
With a sneer, Du Weiwei turned to leave, as if she had never appeared.
Walking into the dormitory building, saying hello to the dormitory aunt, and seeing the light coming from the glass window of the dormitory, Song Yuhua was instantly relieved.
Xiong Ailan was sitting on the bed reading a book, and when she saw Song Yuhua coming back, she smiled and said, "Why did you come back?" Eat grapes? It's quite sweet. β
Song Yuhua noticed a bunch of grapes on the table, and immediately raised his eyebrows, "You bought it?" β
Now that the grapes have just come out, the price is not low, according to Xiong Ailan's character, she won't spend money like this, is it something good?
After a little guess in my heart, I saw Xiong Ailan smile softly, "It was bought by Ohtani." β
Song Yuhua was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the big valley in her mouth was referring to Hu Dagu and suddenly sighed twice, "It's so intimate, it seems that good things are coming." β
Xiong Ailan's face turned red, and she pinched her fingers shyly, but she didn't hide it, "He said that he would get married when I graduated." β
"You've already promised?"
"Hmm."
Song Yuhua opened her mouth, wanting Xiong Ailan not to be in a hurry to get married and get along again, but seeing the happiness on her face, she couldn't bear to pour cold water.
It's just that people's hearts are fickle, and Hu Dagu seems reliable now, but what about a year from now, three years from now, and five years from now?
Gu Jun's face appeared in his mind, Song Yuhua was slightly stunned, shook his head and threw the man out, and lay on the bed tired and closed his eyes.
β¦β¦
The dawn had not yet risen, but the east had been dyed red by the morning glow.
Song Yuhua and Xiong Ailan came to the garment factory together, and the sound of sewing machines resounded in the factory that had just started.
Leaving Xiong Ailan here to keep accounts, Song Yuhua came to the Lin family's store again, wanting to find Lin Changshan to discuss the follow-up of the Lianhua Road faΓ§ade, but the strange thing is that Lin Changshan, who has always been a workaholic in the store, is not there today.
Song Yuhua was puzzled in his heart, "Shan Yanzi, where is Brother Lin?" β
Shan Yanzi scratched the back of his head and smiled a little silly, "Boss Song, Boss Lin is at home, saying that the daughter-in-law and child from the countryside are here, and they won't come to the store today." β
Song Yuhua suddenly realized, I hadn't heard Lin Changshan mention it before and I hadn't seen my sister-in-law, but I didn't expect it to be in the countryside, the two husbands and wives had been together for a long time, and there must have been a lot to say, so it was better for her not to bother.
The next contract was signed, and although there were many things such as decoration and opening, she was not unable to do it alone.
Thinking of this, Song Yuhua said: "Okay, the store will be handed over to you, let Brother Lin and his sister-in-law get together and give you a salary increase in a few days!" I'll go first. β
When Shan Yanzi heard about the salary increase, he immediately grinned, "Okay, Boss Song, don't worry, I will definitely be optimistic about the store!" β
Song Yuhua smiled softly, turned around and was about to leave, but before he walked out of the store, he saw Lin Changshan riding a bicycle not far away, his face was very ugly.
