Chapter 427: Zeng Ji Shop
The Zeng family doesn't care about this, and is rushing to be well-off.
To open a store, the first thing to do is to have a store.
This is simple, when Zeng Ruolan decided to be an agent, because she was going to learn to drive, she said hello to Zeng Ruoxin and asked him to help find acquaintances to find a shop for them in the market, which was also opened in the wholesale market in Guxian County.
The wholesale market in Guxian County is relatively small, in a large compound in a spacious alley on a main street.
Zeng Ruoxin didn't look for them in the compound, because the rent inside was expensive, the house was still small, and there were all kinds of vegetables, fruits, meat, aquatic products and other things sold everywhere, and the road in the yard was remembered as wide and could only pass a tricycle.
He found them a shop outside the wholesale market near the intersection of the main street, which was large and tidy, and it was the only way for people to enter the wholesale market, the main rent was cheap, the transportation was convenient, and the goods were easy to import and export.
Zeng Ruolan and Zeng Yirou were very satisfied, if it weren't for the fact that this house was a public house in the upstairs community and was not sold to the public, they would have wanted to consider taking out a loan to buy this shop.
In Gu Wentao's words, in the future economic development, the improvement of the national living standard is an inevitable thing, and a small compound will definitely not be able to meet people's growing demand for material life, and it is bound to expand.
The area around the wholesale market, especially the area near the main street, will definitely be the main commercial shop in the future.
Zeng Ruolan gritted her teeth and signed a five-year contract with the managers here, and the rent was not signed, but would be changed at any time with the market situation every year.
This is a trend of increasing prices year by year!
Gu Wentao played tricks and added a clause to the contract, if the five-year contract expires, they want to renew the contract, and they want them to give priority. It is also indicated that during the contract period, if the lessor does not agree, it is not allowed to take back the store at will, otherwise it will compensate three times the amount of the one-year rent for liquidated damages.
The administrator is Zeng Ruoxin's good friend, and this is a public thing, so he didn't care about these things, and directly signed the contract in duplicate.
The last one in this shop was supposed to be a restaurant, and the walls were full of grease stains, so they had to scrape the walls, repaint them, and buy the shelves again.
Gu Wentao felt that this was costly, so he called Chi Kaikai in Ishihara City directly, his father now intends to enter the real estate industry, and his subordinates have only formed a construction and decoration team, and he directly asked Chi Kaikai to bring people over and practice first. I also read a large list of materials, and when they came over, they brought them by truck by the way.
After all, Ishihara City is much larger than Gu County, and many materials are not mentioned here, because it is a county-level distribution at the end, and they are much more expensive.
As soon as Chi Kaikai heard that it was for Zeng Yirou's family, he knew that his brother's love road was not smooth, so he came over to help, and couldn't help but bring things and workers, and came in person, with drag oil bottles - Yuan Xiangfei and Yang Kai.
These things will definitely not be able to accommodate these people at home, Chi Kaikai took the oil bottles to live in a nearby hotel, and the workers will live directly in the store, anyway, in such a hot weather now, a simple wire bed or a few wooden boards, with their sheets, you can sleep.
Moreover, it's only a matter of three or four days, and it's fast.
When they came, Gu Wentao had already drawn all the drawings for the decoration. People study architectural design, these things are not a piece of cake?!
The dimensions on the drawings are clearly written, and the workers just need to do it, if there is anything they don't understand, isn't it, isn't the master on the side?!
Zeng Ruolan and Zeng Yirou were not idle, and they couldn't help with the decoration, so they were in charge of logistics, giving everyone food and water, plus some seasonal fruits, and they were also very busy.
Qian Yiming was calculating various expenses on the side, as well as budgeting the goods needed for the first purchase and the estimated prices for retail sales and wholesale.
Zeng Ruolan's new store doesn't plan to sell only one thing, laundry detergent, so that their good location is completely wasted.
They also purchase directly from the Zhu family's wholesale company, and they still get the lowest discount.
To be an agent, you don't just have to sit in the store, you also need to run around in the initial market development.
They divided into groups and came together to sell.
Zeng Ruolan and Gu Wentao are in a group, Zeng Yijiu Qian Yiming is in a group, Chi Kaikai and Yuan Xiangfei and Yang Kai are in a group.
Gu Wentao wanted to be in a group with Zeng Yirou, but Zeng Yirou said that among them, Gu Wentao was the most capable and had the best understanding of the market, and the meaning of letting him follow Zeng Ruolan was actually to let Zeng Ruolan learn more from him. After all, not long after, the person who was going to be busy with business in Gu County was Zeng Ruolan, not anyone else.
The store also needs a janitor, the fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, Zeng Ruoxin's eldest daughter Zeng Yilu is also idle in the village, and the children are now in kindergarten and primary school, just in the village, her mother-in-law and father-in-law will take people back.
The main reason is that Zeng Yilu's husband Qin Aimin has always wanted to enter the city, and this year it happened that a carpenter in their village returned to the village to collect apprentices, and he entered the city early in the morning. Zeng Yilu approached Zeng Ruoxin several times for this matter, asking him to find a way, but he didn't have a chance.
Seeing that it was less than a week after signing the agency contract, Zeng Ruolan's money in her hand was about to bottom out, and she was also anxious! She originally thought that she could spare some money to buy a second-hand van, but now, it is empty talk.
This van is second-hand at this time, and it is not cheap, and Zeng Yirou also thinks it is not cost-effective.
Gu Wentao and Chi Kaikai spoke out that they could lend money to the Zeng family, but they were directly refused.
Their family was not rich in the first place, and now they are even more destitute, and if the store loses money, they will not have more money to pay off their debts.
It's better to be honest and take it one step at a time.
Li Chunhua's brain turned quickly and made a suggestion.
Didn't their family use to raise pigs?!
It is also necessary to deliver on weekdays, so it is not easy to send a large pig.
So, the family bought a small tricycle.
Now, this car is at home, some people want to buy it, they are not willing to give it, now it is almost rusty, and no one buys it, even if they want to buy it, they can collect the money for scrap iron.
It's better to drive it out and let Zeng Ruolan deliver goods on weekdays, too far away in the mountains and too bad roads, can't run very much, but there is still no problem around the county.
Transportation is also ready-made.
Half a month later, before they started school, Zeng Ji, a wholesale shop for daily necessities, finally officially opened.
Through their half-month running market, the large and small shops in Guxian County, even if they don't want to sell Xiao Q laundry detergent, they also know Zeng Ji Xiaopu.
