Chapter 50: Facade Settlement
Lin Qiu listened carefully to Zhou Xiaotong's serious advice for him, and his black eyes instantly flashed with a strange look, and his eyes were gentle and watery, falling on the figure of the girl next to him.
It was as if a flame was about to burn in his eyes, revealing undisguised heat.
Zhou Xiaotong was still unconscious, staring ahead, walking forward with cheerful steps, still muttering: "If you really make up your mind to run this travel agency project, the place and the people are indispensable, you can discuss the selection with that Mr. Zhang, what should you do with that person?" β
Lin Qiu lowered his head and smiled confidently at Zhou Xiaotong: "Then you don't have to worry, I have already figured out where to recruit tour guides." Guess first! β
Zhou Xiaotong stomped his feet pretending to be angry, and said with a little grievance: "You already have an idea, why are you asking me why?" I'm not the roundworm in your stomach, how do I know what you think? β
Zhou Xiaotong thought to herself, Lin Qiu didn't tell me anything and let me guess, isn't this embarrassing, we are all still students, and we are new to the city, where do we know any tour guides, can't we start training now?
Thinking so in my heart, I unconsciously asked out of my mouth.
Lin Qiu listened to Zhou Xiaotong's words, and his eyes were even more golden in an instant, and he said directly: "Xiaotong, you are so smart, I originally planned to directly recruit locals and college students who are familiar with the Kyoto route to serve as tour guides, as soon as you remind me like this, I immediately have an idea!" β
Now it was Lin Qiu's turn to talk, and Lin Qiu, who was awakened by Zhou Xiaotong's words, looked happy.
"We can hire a few fun-loving local veterans, and most of the rest can be used by college students to work part-time, and we are in Kyoto, and there is no shortage of college students.
Moreover, college students are young, smart and motivated, and their salaries are cheaper by more than a star and a half, so we can greatly save costs. You're my wisdom cue! β
Lin Qiu, who was suddenly open, looked at Zhou Xiaotong happily, Zhou Xiaotong was confused by Lin Qiu's sudden enthusiasm, but she was also very happy that she could help Lin Qiu, which made her feel very accomplished.
"Without further ado, let's go to their leprosy restaurant now, discuss the next work tasks and make the next work plan, and eat something to fill your stomach by the way, you haven't eaten, have you?"
Zhou Xiaotong deliberately blocked Lin Qiu's mouth with a sentence, "I'm very picky about eating, if you want to invite guests to dinner, forget it, I'm afraid of embarrassing you." β
She really wanted to see what Lin Qiu's reaction would be next.
Lin Qiu quickly sensed her thoughts, and said quietly, "I know you like to eat sweet and sour dishes, the sweet and sour pork ribs made in that store are delicious, you will definitely like them." β
Zhou Xiaotong felt that Lin Qiu was tempting her with food, her mouth pursed, but there was a smile in the corner of her eyes, she didn't really want to embarrass Lin Qiu from the beginning.
Lin Qiu then tempted: "There are also a lot of authentic snacks in Beijing, which the locals like to go to, I will take you to taste the authentic taste of Beijing." β
"Since you say that, then you're welcome, I want to eat all the signature dishes and the most expensive meals of their restaurant, can you afford to invite me?" Zhou Xiaotong continued to play a small temper.
It seems that she did it on purpose, Lin Qiu raised her head and looked directly into Zhou Xiaotong's eyes, and replied dotingly and seriously, "Can you finish eating so much, you also told me before that you should cherish one meter and one dish, and you can't waste it, if you can really finish it, then I will treat you and let you eat all the food you want." β
didn't expect him to take his casual jokes seriously, and Zhou Xiaotong was a little embarrassed for a while.
She touched her earlobe and gave herself a step down, "I'm kidding, how can I finish that table, I'm not a pig." β
After a pause, she took Lin Qiu's hand and said, "I'm not kidding you, let's go find them quickly, they will be busy when we catch up with the meal." β
Lin Qiu's face turned red the moment Zhou Xiaotong took his hand, and he didn't hear what she said at all, just followed her steps in a daze.
Zhou Xiaotong's straightforward contact made Lin Qiu always excited.
He shook it back shallowly, and saw that Zhou Xiaotong did not resist, so he held her little hand tightly, and observed it carefully, only to see that her entire ears were so red that they were about to burn, but she was still pretending to be calm.
Lin Qiu just held Zhou Xiaotong's hand tightly, one with a red face and the other with red ears, and walked hand in hand to the leprosy restaurant.
He ordered a table of signature dishes, and also called out to the monkeys, and they got together to discuss how to choose a feng shui treasure for the travel agency to serve as a fixed business place and the specific matters of selecting a tour guide.
Come to think of it, buying a house is not realistic. As long as it is in the 90s, this road will not even be thought about.
Because from now until the mid-to-late 90s, it is still mainly welfare housing, and there are very few commercial houses, and the prices are even more incredibly high, not to mention in Kyoto, where every inch of land is expensive.
In today's Kyoto, for example, in the early 90s, housing prices were about 2,000 yuan per square meter, while during the same period, most of the local workers' monthly income was less than 200 yuan, and the housing prices were more than 10 times the monthly income.
As a fledgling college student, Lin Qiu's school subsidies and his own money from gambling and stock trading were not enough to buy a commercial house in Kyoto.
And the salary of leprosy and monkeys plus bonuses is at most thirty or forty yuan a month, and the income of a year is only three or four hundred yuan, and even a half-square-meter house in Kyoto cannot be bought.
What's more, there is no commercial housing construction project at present, and even if you have money, you can't find a place to buy it.
I don't know how difficult it is to open a travel agency, but I really have to implement it to know that it is really difficult!
Especially in the era when food stamps are needed to buy a meal in some places, it is unrealistic to buy a commercial house!
Lin Qiu sighed: "It's really not a good home, I don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil, and salt are." This incident really gave me experience. β
At this time, Zhang Yuansheng was late, and as soon as he entered the door of the private room, he saw a group of little guys with sad faces and miserable faces, and he couldn't help laughing.
Lin Qiu's previous performance had always been relatively mature, and when he suddenly saw his melancholy look, he couldn't help but want to laugh a little,
He asked, "What's wrong, why are they all crying and sad." β
The monkey couldn't help but pout: "We are discussing the faΓ§ade of the travel agency, but the housing prices are too high now, and we can't afford to buy a commercial house at present." Although Mr. Zhang may be able to pull out the money, they are not sure that this job will definitely make a lot of money, and it will not be good if he does not earn debts when the time comes.
"That's it, I've already figured out how to deal with it."
Zhang Yuansheng said this, is that a play?
Zhou Xiaotong and Lin Qiu glanced at each other, their eyes were full of curiosity, and they all looked at Zhang Yuansheng together.
"I happened to be at the train station, and there was a house at the entrance of the station that was idle, but it was not a commercial house, or an ordinary residential house, and the flow of people there was too large, and the rest of the coming and going was not good, so the house was idle.
Let's take a moment to go there and see if we can use it. I'll decorate it if it works. β
