Chapter 5 Renting and Planning for the Future

As soon as the two got off the train, they took the car to the vicinity of Fudan University, and now there is still about a month and a half before the start of school, Qi Ming plans to rent a house near Youwei to settle down, and the two of them have been shopping here for a long time and finally rented a small house on the first floor for 300 yuan per month in a factory community next to the university. The furniture in the house is relatively complete, and after paying the rent for half a year, the two are so tired that they spread out on the bed.

Chu Youwei couldn't stop giggling, and after lying down for a while, she arched into Qi Ming's arms, and then said sweetly: "Husband, what are your plans next?" Do you want to get a job or do a small business? ”

Qi Ming hugged her tightly and said softly: "I want to set up a small shop near your school, mainly buying milk tea and yogurt twist." "The investment of these two is the smallest, the last Qi Ming once invested in a milk tea chain, because he liked that taste, so he spent a lot of time to learn, and finally he also developed a few milk tea varieties with a better taste, as for yogurt twist, that is he likes to eat, and is worried about the unhygienic outside, so he learned to do it himself, and finally many friends feel that it is better than the taste outside, so he thinks that he will start with these two projects first.

Originally, he planned to start with the stock market, but in 96 the entire domestic stock market was a bear market, and now the capital is very small, and entering the market is a disaster. And the biggest opportunity is the lunar year, the Southeast Asian financial crisis, the capital is slightly more, and the short Thai baht is the explosive growth point of wealth. And his other strong point, the computer field, now in China, the computer is basically a desert, and no matter how much capital is plunged into it now, there will be no profit. He doesn't want to and doesn't have the capital to cultivate this market, and he can still grab a wave of opportunities in the lunar year and even the year after that, that is, the mailbox business and the navigation website. Therefore, July of this year's Daoyin year is the primitive stage of his capital accumulation. He kept admonishing himself to be calm, Mo Lang's obscene development is the king's way. He wants to give his little cutie confidence, so that she can give her happiness in the face of her, she just needs a happy life, and he can bear all difficulties.

At this time, Youwei, who was lying on him like a cat in his arms, raised her little head and asked, "Husband, what is milk tea?" Is it tea? ”

Qi Ming smiled and said: "Alas, this is not easy to explain to you, I will make a little bit of it on a cloudy day, and you will be white, I will go outside your campus to see if there is a suitable store, let's just take a break." ”

So the two squinted in the room for a while, and then went out together. They came to the nearest exit from the School of Economics and Management that Chu Youwei was about to enroll, and looked at the streets of those places, there was a small street not far from the school gate, Qi Ming walked around the neighborhood twice, and found that there were quite a lot of students hanging out here, so he discussed with Youwei to see if there were any suitable shops here. After walking around, I found that there was a shop that made breakfast to be rented out.

So Qi Ming stepped forward and saw a middle-aged man guarding the vacant shop, so he stepped forward and greeted, "Big brother, do you want to rent it here?" ”

The man looked up at Qi Ming, and saw that the young man was quite energetic, so he smiled and said, "Yes, the business is not good, so I want to sublease this place, how can the young man have an idea." ”

Qi Ming smiled and said, "Alas, it's not my sister who wants to study here this year, she has never been far away, so I'm not at ease." I just want to accompany her here, I want to find a job, this is not from the mountains, there is no technical job to find, just think about the whole small business. The family is poor by the way to see if they can earn some money, so that the girl can successfully finish college, and have a good future. ”

This is the middle-aged man couldn't help but glance at Qi Ming, and said with a smile: "Your big brother is amazing." ”

Qi Ming smiled and asked, "What's your surname?" How much do you rent here? ”

The middle-aged man also replied with a smile: "Don't be expensive, my surname is Gao, tall and strong." My rent for this score is 1,000 yuan a month, and if you want it, I can give you these furniture cheaply. ”

"Brother Gao, you see that I don't make breakfast either, I just want to sell a special snack in my hometown, I can't use your furniture, and I don't have much capital, can you just rent the house to me?" Qi Ming said with a shy smile, and deliberately pulled the corners of his clothes with his hands, reflecting a little bottomless and lacking confidence.

Maybe this Mr. Gao has a good impression of Qi Ming, or maybe he saw Qi Ming's shyness, he said magnificently: "Okay, I still have four and a half months of rent here, you just give me four months, and I'll take the things away and deal with them." For the rest, I'll call the landlord and you'll sign the lease agreement with her directly. Brother Gao is also a bold person, and immediately called the landlord at the public phone next to him, and soon signed a rental agreement, and Qi Ming also paid 6,000 yuan in rent.

After determining the shop, Qi Ming asked Brother Gao about a second-hand market not far away, so he took Chu Youwei to take a car over, he bought nearly 2,000 yuan of things there, these equipment need Qi Ming to make further modifications, for which he bought some accessories, and spent nearly 300 yuan.

I found a delivery person in the thrift market and delivered everything to the shop, and at this time, Brother Gao also pulled the furniture away. In this way, Qi Ming and Chu Youwei quickly cleaned the shop and moved all the equipment and items they bought, and at the back of the store, he placed an electric heating cabinet there, and then installed a stainless steel trough next to it, and he wanted to convert this stainless steel trough into a constant temperature heater. An electric mixer was installed in the back, which he used as a dough mixer. There is a kneading table in the middle, a milk tea configuration console in front, a sales area at the door, and several tables and chairs are ready to be arranged in front of it as a rest area.

In the afternoon, Qi Ming finally finished modifying the machine. Then he and Chu Youwei found a food market and bought all the ingredients they needed. Then I found a shop specializing in shop signs, made a signboard for Youwei's milk tea shop, and asked Chu Youwei to spend a lot of posters on the shop.

In the end, I got rid of Brother Gao and helped me go through the business license and related procedures, which took three days. Brother Gao was very interested in the milk tea shop that Qi Ming was going to do, so he made an appointment with Qi Ming to come as an apprentice after it opened, and then go to another university to open a franchise store after learning, so Brother Gao was very attentive to helping with these procedures.

It wasn't until late that Qi Ming finally concocted eight so-called signature milk teas, as well as 10 kinds of drinks. Then it took nearly forty minutes to fry two flavors of twist, one is yogurt-flavored and the other is fruity.

Under the tasting of Brother Gao and his wife and a few neighbors, everyone felt that it tasted great, especially milk tea, which was called a delicious one! Qi Ming thought in his heart, this is the power of the generation difference, and finally priced 5 yuan for milk tea and 4 yuan for drinks. The price of twist two yuan.

In the end, Qi Ming and Chu Youwei dragged their tired bodies and returned to the rented small home with difficulty, and the two collapsed on the bed again, looked at each other and smiled, and then hugged each other and fell asleep.
