Chapter 25: The Tail of Opportunity
2005 was still a popular year for entrepreneurship.
Even if he has not caught up with the tide of the times in previous years, but now with a red ticket and PHS in his hand, a person can still have the courage to step in the direction of his dreams.
Look at the vendors who come and go on Phoenix bicycles and motorcycles, as well as the various street vendors on the streets, who exude freedom and confidence from the inside out.
It seems that as long as you dare to fight hard, you believe that you can start from scratch and make a fortune.
After all, there have been so many successful examples in the past few years, as long as you can catch the tail of the wave, you can still have a good future.
Therefore, at this time, no matter who has the idea of starting a business, Lu Ning does not feel strange.
What's more, Ji Xuan, a person who has been cultivated in the business atmosphere since childhood, no matter how you look at it, is more likely to start a business than her, a person who came out of a worker's family, and has more business acumen and experience.
It's just that Ji Xuan's sudden honesty made Lu Ning a little embarrassed. But from the bottom of her heart, she recognized Ji Xuan's character even more.
Lu Ning gently patted Li Jie's slightly stiff arm, and smiled at Ji Xuan: "Yes, I have seen some places in the past few days, and I am ready to be in Luzhen for the time being." ”
She has the need to start a business, and she can't hide it, so it's better to admit it generously.
"Luzhen is really good." Ji Xuan nodded casually and analyzed, "I went to Moon City and the towns around Moon City, and I felt that those places were almost meaningless. However, Luzhen has convenient transportation and is a transportation hub, so if you can really do it well, it will not be too bad. ”
In fact, doing business also pays attention to the right time, place and people, and moreover, there is a saying that if you want to get rich, you must first build roads. It's not too bad to do business in a transportation town.
Lu Ning nodded in agreement: "That's right, do business, just take your time." ”
In the end, she was not very familiar with Ji Xuan, so she didn't say anything more.
There are more snacks sold in the core of the commercial street, and there are noodle restaurants and fast food restaurants outside. A few people were looking for a noodle restaurant, and one of them ordered a bowl of noodles and solved the lunch first.
As for the face money, before Lu Ning and Li Jie paid, Ji Xuan paid first. Although Li Jie didn't pay much attention to him during this period, he still enjoyed it.
After lunch, Lu Ning wanted to see the house, and Ji Xuan wanted to investigate. But Luzhen is so big, walking around, it's all like this.
So, intentionally or unintentionally, they looked at the rental house together. Of course, on the way to see the property, I also researched some shops and small vendors by the way.
Renting a house to open a training class, in the choice of location, first of all, you have to exclude the farmer's street, you can only choose on the national highway street and the commercial street.
Lu Ning prefers the commercial street, because the commercial street itself is a prosperous main street, and there are many people coming and going. In addition, there is an iron mine primary school in the direction of the Anning River, and it is good to hold a training class next to it.
However, the bustling commercial street is too noisy and has a strong commercial atmosphere. Most of the houses on both sides are one-story shops, and there are very few two-storey ones.
Most of the two-storey buildings are still self-occupied behind the shops, or the first floor is used for stores, and the humble second floor is rented out for living only.
Therefore, Lu Ning could only settle for the next best thing and choose National Highway Street.
Although the national highway is a national highway and there are many vehicles coming and going, it is relatively quiet compared to the shopping street full of hawking.
Rents here are relatively cheaper than on the high street, and there are no significant drawbacks other than a really poor location.
In addition to the houses renting at the bridgeheads on both sides of the Sunshui Bridge, there are houses for rent only in the north, towards the highway entrance and the Luzhen community.
After looking around, Lu Ning temporarily chose two of the houses for comparison. These two sets are relatively slightly better than the others. After all, it is a house in a small town in the mountains, so naturally it cannot be compared with Jincheng.
One of the houses is located at Qiaotou, which is the second floor of a self-built house, with an area of 110 square meters.
This room used to be used for training classes, with four bedrooms and two living rooms. There is a master bedroom with bathroom for living, a small study for the office, two rooms for the classroom, and the living room for the activity room.
There are still a lot of tables, chairs and benches left by one person in the living room, so the landlord offers a rent of 20,000 yuan a year.
20,000 yuan is a lot of money for Lu Ning. It can be said that she doesn't have 20,000 yuan all over her body.
But the landlord said that the house has good feng shui, and the teacher who opened the last training class was a math teacher from the middle school in the town, and the training class was also for math training.
He earned a lot of money, and he was transferred from the middle school in the town to the middle school in Moon City. Not only that, but the teacher also bought a house in Yuecheng and started the training class again.
In this regard, Lu Ning was noncommittal, only said that she would think about it again and come over when she thought about it.
The other is a three-storey self-built building not far from the highway entrance.
The building is 500 meters away from the commercial street, 100 meters away from the highway entrance, but only 50 meters away from the entrance of the Luzhen community.
Although most of the people who will go this way are residents of the community, as well as cars and people going to the direction of Ningxian County, it is cheaper.
Because the house is on the side of the road, the first floor has been rented by the landlord to a tile seller. The second and third floors are being rented out.
The building comes with a small courtyard of 50 square meters, and there are many tiles in the small courtyard. The store on the first floor is a roller shutter that opens outward, and there is a back door inside the store that leads to the backyard, but not to the second and third floors.
The stairs leading to the second and third floors are next to the store, and through a small roller shutter, you go up to the second floor and up to the third floor. But you can't go directly to the store on the first floor, and you can't go to the backyard.
In other words, the backyard is rented out with the store on the first floor, and the rest is rented out together with the second and third floors.
The layout of the second and third floors is the same, with 120 square meters on each floor, three bedrooms, one living room and one bathroom. The floor is covered with marble tiles, and the walls and roof are simply decorated.
Both floors are now vacant with no furniture and appliances, and the landlord used to live in it himself. Now they have moved to the county seat, so they entrust the tenants on the first floor to help rent out.
The rent is not high, and the two floors add up to 15,000 a year, that is, you have to buy everything you need in it.
You can buy some second-hand things, but it doesn't cost much, but the location is not very good, and you need to think about it more.
After looking at the house, it was time for dinner. The three of them chose a nearby restaurant and ordered food, and then began to struggle with which house to choose.
Lu Ning frowned, pursed her lips and said to Li Jie: "The two houses have their own advantages, which do you think is the right choice?" ”
The Qiaotou set is well located and faces students from Luzhen and nearby villages and towns in Luzhen. But the area is small and the price is expensive.
The entrance of the community is large and cheap. However, the location is remote, and it can only be used by students in the town and the villages and towns that go in this direction.
