Chapter 169: Take the Bookstore
Gu Wentao started his new journey, and Guxian also began their journey here. 35xs
After Gu Wentao left, Guan Hanchao and the others still habitually came to Zeng Yirou's house every time they had something, not because it was convenient here, but subconsciously they felt that the Zeng family had Qian Yiming in charge, which could make people feel more at ease.
Besides, Qian Yiming is also a member of the bookstore now, and it will not be wrong to find him if you have something!
Qian Yiming didn't expect that he just spent 2,000 yuan casually, but for the sake of Zeng Yirou's face, he was pulled into the water.
Guan Hanchao: Their first task now is to rent a storefront.
All schools, from kindergarten to high school, are on vacation, and they can open food stalls at any time, but if the store they see is given a head start, they will regret that their intestines are green.
Guan Hanchao didn't feel that he had been a gangster for a few years, so he was domineering and pretentious.
They are now secretly talking to people in nearby restaurants and bookstores, asking about the rents of some other people, and unexpectedly find that several of them are actually their own houses.
They cautiously went to test the situation in the jewelry store.
Under the guise of buying a hair ring, he asked why the store was closed.
The girl who opened the shop said that this was her family's house, and she didn't have a job before, so she asked her to open a shop and have fun. Flash Dance.
Now, the family trustee has found her a job, and she is going to close the door to go to work.
Zeng Yirou asked in a curious tone how much the rent would cost.
Of course, these half-grown children are very easy to ignore, and the girl who opened the store directly gave an inflated price and left them directly.
Guan Hanchao and they discussed with Qian Yiming, and finally decided to find Guan Hanchao's father and Zhu Mingming's uncle to go to the owner of the store to ask about the rent.
The two gods they invited, one has been in a leadership position for a long time, and the other is shopping everywhere, with a unique vision, in addition, the connections in Guxian are also incomparable to these little broken children.
I met with the landlord for a meal and drank a drink (of course, the expenses were paid out of the money raised, which was considered public spending), and I successfully got into a relationship with the landlord, one was a distant relative of the employees of the silk weaving factory, and the other was a good friend of my uncle and a friend of the landlord.
I also inquired that two families had also inquired with them about renting a house, and they had noses and eyes.
Regardless of whether someone wants to rent a house, whether it is true or not, whether it is the landlord who wants to raise the price, they dare not delay.
The next day, the two parents brought their acquaintances to the landlord again, this time the dinner was bigger and more lively, and finally directly used a reasonable price.
Of course, in order to make the other party willing, it also gives the other party room to raise prices reasonably.
Otherwise, the other party actually just wants to rent it to them for a year, so that the price can be raised in the future!
Hey, it's always not easy to do business!
A matter of renting a house, it took almost a week of busy work before it was completely settled, they had to move in, and they had to wait another week for the landlord to deal with the jewelry in the store.
Fortunately, they can also breathe a sigh of relief knowing that the house can't run.
Zeng Yirou bit the tip of her pen at home, wrote and drew in a brand-new notebook, and complained to Qian Yiming with a bitter face: "Hey, these days, it's not easy to do business!" I haven't bought a copy of this book yet, the bookshelf has not been set, and the public relations expenses, rent, and deposit have cost more than 2,000.
Money, why is it so worthless?
How many things do you have to sell to earn it back?!
No, five years later, the rent is due, and we don't make a penny, and we're left with a bunch of books to eat ashes, right?
I couldn't help but shudder when I thought about it, and I regretted it so much that I wished I never knew about it. ”
After all, Zeng Yirou opened a store in his previous life, and he knows very well about the shops that sell clothes in their area.
Many stores, but the change of stores is too fast, the cost has not been recovered, there are a bunch of clothes left, crying and sad faces, leaving the business.
Of course, she and a few people who have been in the store for a long time have not hoarded these cheap clothes, and it is not a stone to fall into the well, at most it is just a robbery while the fire is burning.
On second thought, this is a great idea!
If they can go into some stores to resell the processed goods, then they will make money!
However, she has never opened a bookstore, so she doesn't know what kind of books to buy to make money, so it's better not to get involved too much in such a professional thing.
Looking back, she told Guan Hanchao about this idea, and asked them to be cautious, not necessarily cheap is a good thing, after all, what is left in the backlog at the end and can't be sold is generally not a good thing.
Turning around, Guan Hanchao told Gu Wentao about this proposal when they contacted him, and Gu Jian also said it very clearly.
Unexpectedly, their luck was very good, in an underground book market in the magic capital, a storefront contract expired, quit, and wanted to sell books cheaply.
However, the books in this store are not easy to buy!
Generally, most of these underground wholesale book markets are selling pirated books, which are cheap and affordable, and there are a wide range of types.
However, this shop is a strange thing, and it sells genuine books.
It is said that it is sold cheaply, and the price is still higher than that of pirated copies.
Gu Wentao and Zhou Zhiyuan finally discussed it and still took down these books.
However, the bookstores in Guxian County are still mainly pirated books, because the consumption power there is limited, the economic base determines the superstructure, and there is not much demand for the quality of the books.
They left these books in order to open a bookstore near the school in Kyoto, where the requirements are high, and these books are just right.
However, they didn't have much money, so they directly asked Zhou Zizhong and Gu Dechun to borrow money.
When the books arrived in Kyoto, they were first placed in Zhou Zizhong's courtyard.
Zhou Zizhong was afraid that the books would be moldy, so he opened them one by one and wanted to dry the books.
This look is amazing, several sets of books have been out of print, and they are genuine.
Just a few books go around in the hands of those who love collecting, and they will directly earn back the cost.
Gu Wentao and Zhou Zhiyuan were a little dizzy by this sudden pie, and for the first time they knew that books still had this effect.
After consulting Zhou Zizhong's opinion, he shot directly.
It's okay to collect these things yourself, and the value of collecting them in the future may also be high, and the price will definitely increase slowly.
However, the increase will definitely only be within the rational range, and it will not become rich overnight.
Gu Wentao relied on his intuition and decided to deal with them all.
Many years later, Zhou Zhiyuan realized that the increase in the collection could not increase inflation, and it was useless to keep it.
These are all digressions.
