Chapter 090: Every inch of land is golden
"That sister will wait for your business to open before leaving. However, I have to take a telegram home first, so as not to go back late, and our mother is in a hurry. Han Chuntao thought for a while and agreed to Han Chunlei's proposal
Han Chunlei: "Okay, I'll accompany you to the post office to shoot telegrams in the afternoon." By the way, see if there is a suitable venue. β
At this time, Ah Xiong's mother was screaming in the courtyard downstairs to eat.
"Sister, let's go downstairs to eat first. β
"Okay. β
......
......
Today's noon dish was hearty.
Roasted pork ribs in honey sauce, duck sliced in white sauce, soy sauce chicken, braised beef, spiced peanuts, plus a stir-fried wheat cabbage......
Han Chuntao was frightened by the battle in front of him, this meal was to be put on hold a few years ago, and it was going to be criticized, which was too capitalist and rotten life!
She couldn't help but secretly wonder, are the people of Shenzhen living so rich now? Ordinary people have such a sumptuous lunch at one time, and if they want to be replaced by a better family, won't they celebrate the New Year every day?
Not to mention her, even Han Chunlei was a little surprised, he knew that because his sister came over, Ah Xiong and their family were hospitable, and they would definitely add dishes.
But with this level of abundance, it was the first time he had come to Ah Xiong's house for so many days.
Ah Xiong's mother has always been in charge of the finances of the kitchen, and without her approval, this lunch would not have been so good.
Han Chunlei smiled: "Thank you, Mother Xiong!"
"Oh, why don't I say hello to your sister from so far away?" Axiong's mother explained with a smile.
As she spoke, she enthusiastically sandwiched a piece of pork ribs to Han Chuntao, and said, "Good girl, sit down quickly, try your aunt's ribs!
"Old mother, tell people what to do?" Ah Xiong felt that his mother was talking a little too much today.
"Thank you, Auntie. β
Han Chuntao didn't understand the Hakka dialect between Ah Xiong and Ah Xiong's mother, but she felt the warmth and hospitality of Ah Xiong's mother, and immediately thanked her.
"Good food?" Ah Xiong's mother asked with concern as she watched Han Chuntao eat pork ribs.
"Well, it's delicious. Han Chuntao nodded.
"Eat more if it's good. Ah Xiong's mother sandwiched a large piece of duck meat for Han Chuntao and asked, "By the way, the pretty girl wants to stay in Shenzhen for a long time?"
Han Chunlei knew that his sister couldn't understand Ah Xiong's mother's words, so he took the initiative to reply for his sister: "My sister is going to stay for a week." By the way, Brother Xiong......"
Han Chunlei turned his face and said to Ah Xiong, "Discuss it with you." In the future, my sister will often come to Shenzhen to deliver goods, and she needs a temporary place to stay. So I want to rent the house vacated by Sister Hong and let my sister live there!"
"Stay for a while, settle down, what kind of money do you want?" Ah Xiong waved his hand.
Ah Xiong's mother also shook her head again and again, and said, "No good money!
This old lady is a bit of an anomaly today.
Han Chunlei was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood a little, could it be that she had taken a fancy to my sister and wanted my sister to deal with Brother Xiong?
Why is this messing up the mandarin duck spectrum?
No matter what, one yard is one yard, Han Chunlei thinks that the rent will definitely have to be paid.
Finally, Han Chunlei said something wrong, and Ah Xiong's mother relented and agreed to rent the house to Han Chunlei according to Sister Hong's rent before.
After lunch and a brief rest, Han Chunlei took Han Chuntao to the post office and took a telegram home.
After taking the telegram and leaving the post office, he took Han Chuntao around the Dongmen Market for three or four hours, planning to rent a space as an office.
However, there are not many ready-made office buildings at present, and because of the establishment of the special export zone, the foreign population has flocked to it, so that the units in the office buildings near Dongmen Market have been rented out. If it is idle, either the place is too big and the price is too expensive, or the other party is unwilling to rent it.
The siblings continued to the evening, but to no avail.
The next day, he thought about it, he couldn't just look for it like a headless fly, he had to ask the local snakes in the area of Dongmen Market to help inquire.
He thought of Li Jiajun, the manager of Guangyuan Tea House.
So he took his sister out to experience the morning tea of Cantonese people.
In Guangyuan Teahouse, he met Li Jiajun, drinking tea, and he told Li Jiajun what he meant.
After hearing this, Li Jiajun took it without hesitation and said, "Don't you just want to rent the office near Dongmen Market? This matter is simple, I will help you keep an eye on it for a while." I'll let you know as soon as there's news. I thought it was a big deal. β
"Thank you Brother Jiajun first, but I can't wait for a while, I'm in a hurry. I want to settle a place early. Han Chunlei said truthfully.
Li Jiajun pursed his lips and said, "Then you should have said it earlier, I want to think about it......"
Li Jiajun thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Don't say it, I really know that there is a house around here that is vacant, and it can be rented, but that house is a little smaller, I'm afraid you don't like it!"
"How small?" asked Han Chunlei.
"It's almost ten square meters," Li Jiajun pointed in the direction of downstairs and said, "This downstairs," On the third floor of this tenement building, you can rent it at any time. But put a table and put something in it, and the room will be full. Moreover, the room type of this house is not very good. β
He paused, and gestured with his hands: "It's not like a normal house, boxy, but an inverted triangle, big on the outside and small on the inside, it looks awkward and impractical, so it has not been rented out." β
"Ten square meters? It's a little small, but it's enough. β
Han Chunlei nodded and said, "As for the room type is an inverted triangle, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." β
Han Chunlei didn't care that this room was small and the room type was strange. After all, his current business has only opened, and the employees and bosses are all by himself, and it is a waste if the place is big.
He values this place in Dongmen Market, the geographical location is good, and the faΓ§ade of the office is located here, which is convenient for customers to come to the door or contact, and it also has natural advantages for doing business.
As for the space is too small to hoard tea, this is simple, and it will be good to rent a warehouse when the time comes.
Think about it, in the famous Huaqiangbei business district in later generations, most of the counters are not this way of operation?
A three-to-five square counter can only accommodate one or two people, but it doesn't affect them to do millions of business?
Besides, Han Chunlei felt that the office had small benefits. After all, the purpose of the state to allow the existence of self-employed people is to solve the living problems of the unemployed youth in the society, not to encourage the private economy. With the huge profits of his Longjing tea now transferred from the north to the south, he rents a big office, which will become a live target in the eyes of others, and when the time comes, he will not look for trouble, and the trouble will come to his door.
According to the historical development trajectory, in the first two years, things have to be done and money has to be earned, but people must be low-key, and Mo is public.
He liked the room Li Jiajun said very much, so he asked, "Who owns this house? Are you sure you can rent it at any time?"
"Of course you can rent it. Not only this empty room on the third floor, but also the entire tenement building, is run by the street. Officer Wang of the sub-district office has a good relationship with me. If you're really interested, I can get you in touch right now. β
Han Chunlei nodded seriously: "Quite interested!"
"Okay, you wait a minute, I'll go shake the phone!"
Li Jiajun said and returned to the counter.
In less than half an hour, Officer Wang of the sub-district office came up.
After Li Jiajun introduced him and Han Chunlei, he indirectly endorsed the book for Han Chunlei in front of Director Wang.
Soon, Director Wang took Han Chunlei down to the third floor and opened the house that had been unable to be rented.
Han Chunlei and Han Chuntao took a brief look, it was indeed very small, almost ten square meters, and the room type was really an inverted triangle, most businessmen don't like to rent this kind of house.
No wonder it has been vacant.
Han Chunlei noticed that the lock on the door just now was full of dust.
Officer Wang said: "You have also seen the room, and this is generally the case. Not only is it small, but the room type is not right. However, according to the regulations, this tenement building belongs to Class A housing, and the monthly rent pricing requirement is one square meter and three cents. This room is 9.7 square meters, and the rent for a month is two yuan and nine cents, which is not very cost-effective for ordinary people to rent. So for so many years, we haven't rented out this room. β
Director Wang does have a good relationship with Li Jiajun, so he is also seeking truth from facts to Han Chunlei at this time, and he has not concealed it at all.
But when these words heard in Han Chunlei's ears, they were a different matter!
What kind of experience is it to have an independent office with less than three yuan a month in Dongmen Market, where every inch of land is at a premium?
It's not too cool, okay?
Seeing that Han Chunlei didn't speak, Director Wang proposed: "Comrade Xiao Han, I also know that this room type and rent are indeed not equal, but this is a public house, and it must be implemented in accordance with the policy. In this way, if you really can't find a suitable place in Dongmen Market, it is better to rent here for a year. When you find a place, you can move out!"
Rise?
As soon as Han Chunlei heard this, he guessed that the other party wanted to go wrong.
Immediately, he smiled and said, "What, Officer Wang, in order to support your work, I will simply rent it for a few more years!"
"Ah, rent for a few more years? Well, of course I can't ask for this, after all, being able to rent out the house is also to revitalize idle public assets. However, you have to think clearly, this place ......" Director Wang felt that Comrade Xiao Han was so real, and he should treat him more sincerely.
"I thought very clearly. β
Han Chunlei nodded and confirmed, "Director Wang, I plan to rent this house for ten years, and we can sign a ten-year lease when we go back." β
"Ten years, eldest brother, have you figured it out?" Han Chuntao, who had been silently following behind without speaking, couldn't help but speak this time.
Han Chunlei gently shook Han Chuntao's hand and gave her a reassuring look.
"Ten years?"
Officer Wang was also surprised, and then moved: "Comrade Xiao Han, you are so supportive of our work! Do you have any other requirements? If you have a request, you can mention it, and I will report it to the leaders above! Of course, don't mention rent reduction or anything, this is really a hard and fast policy provision. β
"Since it is to support your work, there is no need to embarrass you, the rent is three yuan a month, and if you reduce it, it will be gone. Right? Haha. β
Han Chunlei smiled and continued: "But since Officer Wang said that you can make a request, then I will make a small request, I hope you will allow me to put up a signboard on this tenement building." β
"That's it?"
Director Wang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that Han Chunlei really made a symbolic request, Comrade Xiao Han is really a real person.
He said very happily: "As long as you sign a ten-year rental agreement with our street office, you will do business here, can you still not let you put up a signboard? β
Han Chunlei was dumbfounded, he agreed so happily?
It seems that in recent years, everyone's concept of advertising is very weak, or even none.
Han Chunlei felt that he had made a lot of money!
