Chapter 41: Buying a Shop

When Master Liu saw the safety helmet for the first time, he was a little shocked at the same time. Hearing Lin Yunxuan's words, he reacted from the shock of the safety helmet and nodded again and again.

He didn't expect that the master not only didn't blame him for mismanagement, but also made them such a good helmet to protect their heads, and his heart was moved and admired. So I silently made a decision to complete the project as soon as possible and with high quality, so as to help the owner's family save some wages.

Shen Lao also saw a safety helmet for the first time. He didn't expect that an accident would make Lin Yunxuan think of making a helmet to protect the safety of craftsmen, and he didn't expect her to think of using ancient vines to weave helmets.

The progress of the project was very fast, and the foundation was laid and the pipes were dug in ten days.

Because there is Shen Lao on the other side of the house, there is no need to worry about it, Lin Yunxuan only needs to make Shen Lao's meals every day and send them over, and then take a look at the progress. So she began to prepare for the lo-mei shop. The first step is to choose a shop.

Shopkeeper Li learned that Lin Yunxuan wanted to open a lo-mei shop in the town, so he was very enthusiastic to help her find two shops, so that she had time to go over and have a look.

Lin Yunxuan originally planned to ask Shopkeeper Li which shops in the town were being transferred and worth starting, but she didn't expect that Shopkeeper Li had already helped her find it, and said that if the silver in her hand was not enough, she could lend her silver. Lin Yunxuan was happy in her heart, but also faintly felt that Shopkeeper Li seemed to be a little overly enthusiastic about helping her with things, but she couldn't tell what the problem was, and she couldn't think of it, so she didn't think much about it, just as Shopkeeper Li was hospitable.

The two shops selected by the shopkeeper Li, one large and one small, the big one is diagonally opposite the Zuixian Building, the store is about eighty square meters, and there is a room for resting at the back; The small one is not on the main street, on the inner street, the first one to enter the street, the store is only thirty or forty square meters, but there is a small yard behind.

Lin Yunxuan took Zhao Dalin and He Cuifang around and compared them in their hearts.

The big one belongs to the street store, the location is conspicuous, and the flow of people is relatively large. Good location, big area and certainly not cheap. The smaller one is on the inner street, and the flow of people is relatively small, but the size of the store is more in line with her needs, and although the shop is small, it has everything. There is a backyard, a well, and two rooms that can be used both for temporary rest and as a storeroom.

Lin Yunxuan intended to choose the smaller one, but she still consulted Zhao Dalin and He Cuifang's opinions.

"I think it's more cost-effective to have a small shop, we just started trading, and the scale should not be too big." Zhao Dalin said with a frown.

"Yes, and the big one has only one room in the backyard, so it's not convenient if you want to live in it, but the small one is relatively much more convenient. If Xiao An comes to the town to go to school in the future, let's live in the shop, not only can we save the money of renting a house, but it is also convenient to take care of Xiao An. He Cuifang took Zhao Dalin's words and said, she thought about it more long-term.

Lin Yunxuan nodded, and said, "Then let's take down the small shop." β€œ

The three of them had no experience in buying a shop, so they returned to Zuixian Building to find the shopkeeper Li.

"This faΓ§ade also has a backyard, and it is estimated that it is about a hundred taels." Shopkeeper Li learned that they wanted to buy a small shop, and said with a deep sigh.

Lin Yunxuan raised her eyebrows when she heard this, this price was about the same as her estimate. After all, Shimen Town is a prosperous town, and the prices in the town are not low, especially the houses and shops. Whether in the past life or now, compared with the countryside, the price of houses in towns is always much more expensive, at least many countrymen who have worked hard all their lives to buy houses or shops in the town.

Lin Yunxuan smiled and said: "This price is okay, can Uncle Li help me find someone to talk about the price, naturally the lower the pressure, the better." ”

Shopkeeper Li thought for a while, and then said with a smile: "You sit down first, I'll go out to find a friend, he is a dental dealer, he is the best at this kind of house trading, you don't have to wait a few days, maybe I can give you an answer today." ”

After speaking, Shopkeeper Li left Lin Yunxuan and them to sit and drink tea in the conference room, and he hurried out.

Zhao Dalin and He Cuifang were so excited that they couldn't sit still, and they didn't have the heart to drink tea, the two looked out of the door from time to time, and occasionally discussed in a whisper.

Lin Yunxuan drank tea absentmindedly, but her mind kept popping up how to decorate her shop, what kind of people to invite, and how to break into this business road.

After waiting for half an hour, Shopkeeper Li came back with a smile on his face, followed by his tooth shop friend.

"How's it going, have you finished talking?" Zhao Dalin asked anxiously.

"The negotiation was settled, and the final deal was eighty-eight taels of silver." Shopkeeper Li said with a smile, poured a cup of tea and handed it to his friend, "Thanks to my Ding Rong brother." ”

Ding Rong took the teacup, drank it all, moistened his thirsty throat, and said, "Brother Li lifted me, and I didn't make much effort. This shop has been in the hands of our peers for more than half a month, and no one has taken over it, and the owner is in a hurry to get rid of it, so it is so easy to talk about it. ”

"Why is the owner in a hurry to get rid of it?" Lin Yunxuan keenly captured the key point in Ding Rong's words.

"To pay off gambling debts." Ding Rong sighed and said, "Gambling is really harmful, gambling people are ten gambles and nine losses, this owner was originally a landlord, there are hundreds of acres of fertile land at home, and there are several shops, life was originally very good, but unfortunately the first two years began to be infected with gambling, and slowly lost all the family property." This shop is his last shop, I heard that the people of the gambling house originally wanted to use this shop to pay off part of his gambling debts, but the price was too low, I don't know how the owner later talked to the gambling house, and finally the gambling house was willing to give him a month to let him sell the shop and pay off the gambling debts. ”

"Then if we buy this shop, will we be in trouble?" Lin Yunxuan was a little worried.

"Don't worry, I, Ding Rong, have always done things properly. I've already inquired, the gambling house will not interfere with the sale of this shop, and after the shop is sold, it will not fight the idea of this shop. Ding Rong said firmly.

Lin Yunxuan couldn't rest assured, and raised her eyes to look at Shopkeeper Li.

Shopkeeper Li received Lin Yunxuan's information, put down the tea cup in his hand and said: "I also know this owner, and people are still more trustworthy. I also know people in the gambling house, and I have also inquired, which is the same as what Ding Rong said. ”

After listening to Shopkeeper Li's words, not only Lin Yunxuan was relieved, but Zhao Dalin and He Cuifang were also relieved.

But for the sake of prudence, after Lin Yunxuan proposed to sign the sales documents, they paid half of the money first, and put the rest with Ding Rong first, and then paid after making sure that the shop had no debt disputes.

Ding Rong pondered for a moment and then nodded in agreement, and then went to the owner of the shop to discuss.

After a stick of incense, Ding Rong came over with the owner of the shop, and he agreed to Lin Yunxuan's request.

So, Ding Rong was the middleman, and the group carefully inspected the shop before going to the tooth store to sign the sales documents.

Because Lin Yunxuan hadn't reached the end yet, she couldn't buy the shop herself, so she signed the sale and purchase documents in the name of Zhao Dalin. When paying, according to what Lin Yunxuan said before, only forty taels of silver were given, and the remaining forty taels were placed here by Ding Rong, and when Lin Yunxuan confirmed that there were no other debt disputes in this shop, the owner vacated the shop and the courtyard behind it, and then gave the remaining forty taels.

Holding the signing paperwork, Zhao Dalin and He Cuifang stood on the side of the road and looked at each other, and the husband and wife were so excited that they couldn't speak for a long time. Who would have thought that three or four months ago, they were living a tinkling of poverty, and now they are not only building a new house, but also buying a shop in the town, and have become the richest people in the village.

Looking at Lin Yunxuan, who was walking in front, thinking back on their lives in the past few months, they felt like they were in a different world. I think they just saved Lin Yunxuan with kindness at the beginning, but I didn't expect that my life would be turned upside down because of her, perhaps, this is a kind of good cause to get good results.

After buying the shop, Lin Yunxuan immediately made a work list in her heart and found that there were really a lot of things to do next.

The first thing to bear the brunt of is the decoration of the shop.

Because the shop I bought was originally dealing in rice noodles, whether it was decoration or layout, it was not in line with the lo-mei shop envisioned by Lin Yunxuan, so this decoration had to be completely torn down and restarted.

As for the candidate in charge of the store decoration, Lin Yunxuan politely rejected the candidate recommended by the shopkeeper Li and decided to use Zhao Dongsheng, that is, Aunt Zhang's husband.

Lin Yunxuan asked Zhao Dongsheng to make a small table for Luo Yao to eat, and she recognized his craftsmanship very much, and with Aunt Zhang's relationship, let him be in charge of the decoration, and she was also relieved.

Zhao Dalin and He Cuifang also agreed to let Zhao Dongsheng be in charge of the decoration of the shop, so after returning to Gangtou Village, Zhao Dalin went to find Zhao Dongsheng.

The next morning, Zhao Dongsheng came to find Lin Yunxuan.

Lin Yunxuan took out the drawings she had drawn last night and showed them to Zhao Dongsheng.

Zhao Dongsheng pointed to the two large and small rectangles that took up almost half of the shop on the drawing, and asked, "Dongjia, what is painted here?" ”

Lin Yunxuan looked down, and it turned out that Zhao Dongsheng was referring to the L-shaped counter and operating table she painted, so she explained: "The small one is the cash register, that is, the counter, in the direction of the door, to make a window." The long one is the counter and the place where the guests pick up their meals, and two windows should be made, one on the inside and one on the outside. The window inside can be left out when there are few customers, but it can be opened when there are many people. Then in the opposite direction of the door, a door was made to facilitate our people to enter and exit, and the rest of the place was separated by wooden boards. ”

Because there is no glass in this time and space, Lin Yunxuan can only use wooden boards instead.

Zhao Dongsheng couldn't understand why he did this, and asked, "Where is the guest sitting?" ”

Lin Yunxuan pointed to the drawings and said: "The window is a place to buy things for guests, and those who want to buy things only need to line up at the window and leave after buying things." β€œ
