Zhang Dezhen returned to his residence in a bit of a daze, restless and restless for an afternoon.

For a while, I felt that it would be very good to get the 20,000 yuan of the buyout; After a while, I imagined that if Xu's fast food's lo-mei restaurant was a big success and sold tens of thousands, wouldn't it be a big loss if I chose to buy out?

After pacing around the cramped residence for one hundred and eight laps, Zhang Dezhen finally took out his mobile phone and called his wife.

"Hey, Ah Meng, yes, there's something I can't decide, you can help me take a look"

As Zhang Dezhen made the ins and outs of the matter clear, the breathing sound on the other side of the microphone became heavy and rapid: "You said this, is it true?" ”

"Yes, my recipe is said to be a family heirloom, but the handling techniques of every household here are not much different, and it is rare that such a recipe can be sold for 20,000 yuan." Then Zhang Dezhen's voice changed: "But the boss has a good vision, and he has set up a fast food restaurant in just two or three months, and now he wants to open a lo-mei restaurant, maybe he thinks there is a market."

After saying a few words, the wife on the other side also fell silent, as if she was weighing the gains and losses of the two choices.

But at this time, a young male voice came from the other side of the microphone.

"Brother-in-law, since the boss thinks there is a market to open an independent lo-mei shop, why don't you come out and work alone, and make more and less by yourself, isn't it better than working for others?"

"What nonsense!"

Immediately after, the wife's reprimand and the brother-in-law's rebuttal came from the other side of the microphone.

"I'm not right, it's a job for the boss, and it's a job for yourself, why give this opportunity to make money to others"

The words that followed became more and more blurred, and Zhang Dezhen didn't hear it clearly, but it was undeniable that his brother-in-law's words opened up his new ideas.

Indeed, doing it yourself is also doing it, and doing it for the boss is also doing it; Do it yourself, earn a thousand is a thousand, do it for the boss, earn a thousand to get fifty.

"Dezhen, don't listen to his nonsense, our family can't toss this."

His wife's voice came out of the microphone, waking Zhang Dezhen up from his fantasy.

"I didn't tell you that your work was not going well before, and at the beginning of the month, my son went to the hospital again, and the doctor urged us to hurry up the operation, and it would be dangerous to delay it any longer. Mom, her feet have started to hurt again recently, and the medicine she took last time didn't work, so she had to go to the hospital."

The wife babbled a lot, and every word was like a heavy hammer smashed on Zhang Dezhen's heart, not only the fire that had just risen, but even the firewood was smashed to pieces.

The question is back to the original point, which one to choose?

At this moment, both husband and wife fell into silence.

They want both the 20,000 yuan buyout fee and the later share.

In silence, Zhang Dezhen began to pace in the cramped residence again, round and round.

20,000 yuan is a buyout money, and if you take this money, your future sales will have nothing to do with you in the slightest, whether it is good or bad;

The share is a continuous income, and if the sales volume is good in the future, you can simply lie down and make money; But if the sales are not good, maybe you won't even be able to earn back the 20,000 yuan buyout money.

Zhang Dezhen remembered that when he first came to Xu's fast food restaurant as a rider, there was only one store at that time, and the daily sales were only about 600 copies.

But now, in just over half a month, the second store and the third store have been leased; Daily sales have also risen from about 600 to more than 2,600 copies.

The lo-mei shop will be opened in the Silver Star office building, and Zhang Dezhen knows that the rent is not ordinarily high.

Presumably, Xu An has confidence in lo-mei, so he chose to open an independent lo-mei shop in this place where every inch of land is valuable.

Today, the boss also went out in a suit to pull a new order, if he can get this new order, the daily sales of the lunch box will be four or five thousand copies.

Since you can run the lunch box business so well, the lo-mei business must not be bad, right?

Zhang Dezhen bit his teeth again and again, blood oozed from his lower lip, and the blood slowly slid down the corner of his lip to his chin, dripping onto his chest, waking him up from his thoughts.

Since there is no hope of opening your own store, it is better to fight and see if you can turn a bicycle into a motorcycle!

Near the Silver Star office building.

Xu An rode an electric three-wheeler around the streets and alleys, looking for a store with the right rent, the right size, and the right location.

From three o'clock to four o'clock, the store looked at three or five, but none of them met Xu An's needs.

Either the price is too high, it's too big or too small, or the location is too remote.

If it's just a transit point for selling lunch boxes, it doesn't matter if it's a little bit.

But after 2 p.m., the store will also be used to sell lo-mei, which is not good if it is too biased.

After spending another twenty minutes wandering around the two residential areas, Xu An finally gave up the idea of finding a suitable store today, thirsty and tired, he found a convenience store, bought a bottle of water, sat in the shade of the tree in front of the convenience store, and rested on a stone bench.

At this time, two uncles wearing white vests, flip-flops, and puff fans were walking towards the convenience store, arguing with each other as they walked.

"I said that your house is kept as a utility room, don't talk about it, the first three or four shopkeepers have closed down after less than three months, your house has bad feng shui, and it is not suitable for business."

"Why is it not suitable, I think the location is very good, but those shopkeepers before had no financial luck, and even made my prosperous house mildew." The uncle said and smashed his mouth twice: "I will bring the radio over in a while, and put the Great Mercy and Great Compassion Mantra for two days to drive away this mildew." ”

"Old feudal, old superstition, old foolishness." Another uncle shook his fan with a look of disdain.

"If you have the ability, throw away the grapefruit leaves hanging at the door."

"That's different, I'm here to please the lottery, but it's not your feudal, superstitious idea."

"You're the one who has the most crooked reasoning." The uncle still wanted to refute, but as soon as he looked up, he saw Xu An's eyes staring at him with straight eyes and sparkling, and he suddenly felt unhappy in his heart, and asked in a very bad tone: "You young man looks a little raw, what are you doing here?" ”

"Uncle, where is the store you just mentioned, what is the location, can you take me to see it?"

Looking at the store?

The two masters glanced at each other suspiciously, and then examined Xu An, and after making sure that the young man was alone and there was no threat, he asked: "Which intermediary are you, and how do you charge for your store?" ”

Xu An was stunned for a moment, looked down at himself, white shirt, black suit pants, black leather shoes and a big back, which really looked like he was working in an intermediary.

Thinking that his age didn't seem convincing, Xu An simply followed the old man's words and said: "Our company has just opened, and we are currently collecting store information, and the stores that have completed the transaction within this week will not charge intermediary fees." ”

No intermediary fees?

When the old man heard this, he became interested, since it was free, there must be no grass and no grass to hug him!

However, the uncle has seen a lot of the market, and he is also very vigilant, and asked very cautiously: "There is no charge for the whole process?" Don't come up with an introduction fee, a meeting fee or something until the final deal is made. ”

"No, no." Xu An patted his chest and replied: "I don't charge a penny, if you really collect it, you come to me and make up for it for you." ”

Hearing Xu An's words, the old man was a little relieved, turned around and led the way in front, and said babblingly: "I saw that you and my grandson are about the same age before I gave you this opportunity, don't do any deceitful things when you are young, when the time comes, you will collect money, I don't need you to double, you just pay me the money." ”

These words made Xu An a little crying and laughing, it seems that he is still very well disguised, this uncle really regards himself as an intermediary.

After following the old man for more than 300 meters, he turned into an old street.

The old street looks old, and the concrete floor is already a little cracked and potholed, and some weeds are emerging from these cracks; However, the street is quite spacious enough to accommodate up to four people at a time, and is flanked by a variety of shops, most of which are restaurants, ranging from desserts and snacks to rice and noodles.

The old man walked to the third storefront at the corner of the street, took out the key and opened the roller shutter to invite Xu An to come in and watch.

Although the exterior of the store looks a little shabby, the inside looks pretty good, and I don't know if it's because it's well maintained or because the previous owners have renovated it.

The walls are white, the floor is covered with gray shiny stain-resistant tiles, and the whole store is very boxy.

The inside of the store is very clean, and the thief has to 'bah' twice and scold twice when he passes by.

Xu An estimated the location, and when the time came, after pushing the two freezers to one side, just half of the remaining space could be used to place lunch boxes, which was very suitable as a transfer station.

"Uncle, what is the expected rent in your store?" Xu asked after taking out his mobile phone and taking pictures of the inside and outside of the store.

"We don't talk darkly, the rent here is 3,700 yuan a month, and I will follow this. Although my store is a little smaller than the others, the location is good, and you can see it from the outside road. The uncle said very boldly.

Three thousand seven hundred, this price is not expensive.

Xu An looked up at the Silver Star office building not far away, and estimated the distance between the two, about 600 meters, a little far, but it was still within Xu An's acceptance range.

After exchanging contact information with the uncle, Xu An said goodbye and left, sat in front of the convenience store until half past five, and then walked to the vicinity of the old street to observe the flow of people there.

As soon as I walked to the intersection, I saw office workers passing by, and there were many students wearing school uniforms.

Some office workers walked to the gate of a nearby residential area and swiped their cards to enter the community; Some of them went to eat in fast food restaurants on this side of the old street

This person traffic, this location, and this store size fully meet Xu An's requirements, and it's you.

In case the night long dream was cut off, Xu An took out his mobile phone and called the uncle.

"Hey, Uncle Chen, it's me, Xiao Xu of the intermediary company, someone who has seen the photos of this store is quite satisfied and wants to rent it."

"Yes, yes, yes, it's a dry diet, you know, yes, yes, it's selling duck necks, duck claws, and duck wings."

"Okay, we're in front of the store now, and you can see me when you come over."

Less than five minutes after hanging up the phone, Uncle Chen's figure wearing a white vest, stepping on flip-flops, and shaking a fan appeared in front of Xu An's eyes.

"Xiao Xu, why are you alone, the person you said you wanted to see the store?"

Xu An showed a standard smile of eight teeth at Uncle Chen: "Uncle Chen, I am the one who just wants to rent your shop." ”

It seems to have recovered yang, my throat was uncomfortable all day yesterday, and I had a low-grade fever of 37.4 all day today.

(Spoiler aside, because it's just now, Xu An is not sure how much sales this lo-mei can sell in the market, and when the business grows, the share given to Zhang Dezhen will be recovered in a reasonable way.) Spray lightly)
