Chapter 84 The Little Patriarch Who Buys Property (Part 2)
After seeing the house, Gui Chongyang followed Gui Wu to the pier again.
The three newly purchased small shops by the uncle and nephew are on the street on the dock, next to the big market. One of them is closer to Master Zhou’s house, only three shops away. Gui Chongyang said, “If this is useless to Uncle Wu, I will keep it.”
Gui Wu nodded and said, "I don't care about opening a shop for the time being. If you want to use it, use all three rooms."
Gui Chongyang nodded and said, "If Uncle Wu feels relieved, let my nephew give it a try."
Gui Wu was curious, but he felt a little expectation.
This little Chongyang is a solid scholar and starts to learn from it after you remember. Where can I get the opportunity to learn business? But I look very confident.
When we arrived at the second shop, it was half a street away from the Zhou family shop. There were also two shops with doorsteps. There was also a Sanhe Courtyard behind and a circle of houses. The place behind was half spacious than the previous shop, and the price was 30% higher than the previous one.
Gui Chongyang nodded while watching, but became more and more satisfied.
Gui Wu became more and more curious, but he was content and was not in a hurry to ask.
When I arrived at the third one, it was on the other end of the long street. Because it was next to the dock, the shop here was slightly larger, with three front doors, but only two small rooms were connected to the back. The place was small, so it was only a price higher than the shop in the middle.
Before, Wang Saner, a young man in the teahouse, was cleaning and sorting it out here with a broom.·
Seeing the two uncles and nephews of Gui Wu come in, Wang Saner hurried forward: "Fifth Master!"
Gui Wu nodded and said to Gui Chongyang: "This is a guy I used in the teahouse before. He is a down-to-earth and easy-to-learn person. If you want to arrange something, you can let him run away for you." He said to the guy: "This is my nephew, and he will call him 'third brother' from now on."
Wang San'er was fifteen or six, a quarter older than Gui Chongyang, but he still honestly called "Third Brother".
Gui Chongyang's little face also stretched out. He looked at Wang Saner and saw that he was wearing old white clothes that were washed, with two patches on his elbows, and the shoes on his feet were also wired and connected. Although his clothes were shabby, they were not sloppy and cleaned up, and he did not look shy.
Gui Chongyang nodded slightly and said, "Can you read it?"
Wang Saner's face turned red, lost her usual calmness, and shook her head.
Gui Wu said next to him: "The private schools in the town charge high fees, and there are few ordinary families who send students in them. In the village below, there are not many private schools like Mujia Village. In the final analysis, it is the legacy of the uncle and uncle back then."
There is a place where the academic style in Jiangnan is prosperous, and village schools are common, but it is unusual in the north.
The village school in Mujia Village is the first of the surrounding villages, and there are also surrounding village children studying there, but the tuition is not 300 yuan a year, but twice as much as possible. Even so, it is much cheaper than in the town. There are several families who can live a good life to send their children to study there.
Gui Chongyang just asked casually, not disappointed. He took out two strings of money and handed it to Wang Saner and said, "You can buy one for food on this street for less than ten cents. Don't worry about it. You should be able to fill your stomach, forget it if you spend more than ten cents."
Wang Saner took two strings of money and didn't ask too much, so she went out to purchase immediately.
Gui Wu said: "You are still young after all. If you know that you are the boss outside, you must be despised. In the future, I will stand in front and count. I have lived in this town for more than ten years, so I will give me some face outside."
Speaking of this, Gui Chongyang couldn't help but be curious and looked at Gui Wu and said, "Uncle Wu, everyone calls you "Fifth Master" outside? Looking at his respectful appearance, it doesn't seem to be just looking at Master Jiang."
Gui Wu patted his forehead and said, "It's just a name, what's the curiosity? Tell me quickly, what do you want to organize? Look at you, are you going to leave all three shops? Will the shop be too big? Then Wang Saner went to buy food, is he going to open a restaurant?" He said that, he showed some disagreement: "Is it a coincidence with the Zhou family? Your second brother is there, but it's still our Gui family owed the Zhou family favors."
By inheriting craftsmanship, you will have more ability to settle down and make a living. This master is not bad for rebirth parents.
If it were other people, they would recruit a few young men in the name of recruiting apprentices. They would use them for a few years first, and then they might not be willing to pass on their skills. How much they could learn depends on how much they could learn. Like Master Zhou, it is not common to bring Gui Qiu around directly, and there is no hidden master.
Gui Chongyang said: "Uncle Wu, don't worry, my nephew knows that these three shops really want to make food, but they won't run into the Zhou family. The Zhou family is a braised pork, and these three shops make noodle shops. If you buy a few buns, wontons and other snacks, you can also have simple rice sets such as one meat and two vegetables."
After hearing this, Gui Wu frowned and said, "This kind of small business is not enough for one shop, so you have to get three?"
Gui Chongyang said: "Unified plaques, small profits but quick turnover, can be used to move. The trading street in front of the pier is nearly two hundred feet away. To be honest, the streets of the business are different, one side next to the market and the other side next to the pier, and the middle place can take into account both. In this way, as long as someone wants to eat a bite of food, he can see one of three rooms. At that time, the price will be marked clearly. That is, outsiders who have just got off the boat on the pier want to eat hot rice, and don't have to worry about being slaughtered if they are not familiar with it."
Gui Wu has been making a living in the market for more than ten years. People from all walks of life can't help but think a little more and said, "In this way, even if you haven't robbed those big restaurants, you have robbed those small businessmen who cross the baskets on the dock."
Smashing someone’s job is like killing someone’s parents.
It’s not that I’m afraid of those people taking revenge, but they can make money with harmony and complaints.
Gui Chongyang thought for a while and said, "How many people are there?"
Gui Wudao: "Xiji is a big wharf, there are always 20 or 30 people."
When Gui Chongyang heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, then we will all be summoned to the restaurant?"
"How can three small restaurants use so many people?" Gui Wu shook his head and said.
Just like the Zhou family’s braised restaurant, there are two shops, and there are about ten tables. Only Master Zhou and his daughter and Gui Qiu greet each other. Although there are many people, it is enough to greet them diligently.
Gui Chongyang said: "A storefront left four and five people to take care of it. The excess people threw their hands with baskets to the dock to sell, but they sold uniform food and came out of the shop."
After hearing this, Gui Wu went in and thought about it carefully, it was a good idea. It could not only comfort and place these people, but also expand the sales in the shop. As for those who want to continue working alone and are unwilling to join the shop, they should continue to work alone. Anyway, Gui Chongyang's placement method was already fulfilled by kindness.
"It's really a way to make money. But although the idea is good, there must be a good shopkeeper who can watch this stall well. After all, it is the entrance. If the transaction is good, it will be left to others to make trouble." Gui Wu said.
"Justice Qiu is the shopkeeper. I want to do this business with Qiu Er Ge and Sister Zhou. Qiu Er Ge is the shopkeeper and Sister Zhou is responsible for the kitchen pool. Uncle Wu uses the shop to invest, which is also considered a share." Gui Chongyang said while laughing.
The old house in the village has been built, and the relationship between "Xigui" and the villagers has also eased a lot. The Mei family and the Li family are both in disgrace and will not be annoying for a while. Gui Chongyang also has the intention to focus on "open source".
Tongzhou is too close to the capital, and the land here in Tongzhou will only become more and more expensive.
Now Du Li is ahead, and the Gui family cannot buy scattered land. Many powerful people are watching the land. The Gui family cannot seek death. Now, if they are not visible, they will start to buy several industries without any exposure. Making money is one thing, and taking the opportunity to train Gui Qiu.
Gui Wu was expecting that Gui Qiu was using Gui Chongyang. The same was true for his thoughts. It was because his family members looked more secure; but using Zhou Dingxiang surprised Gui Wu.
Seeing Gui Chongyang laughing, Gui Wu said in confusion: "What are you thinking about?"
Gui Chongyang smiled and said, "Brother Chun's marriage has been booked for some days. Has it been mentioned by Brother Qiu's marriage? I want to steal Master Zhou's apprentice and daughter, and I always have to give the Zhou family an explanation!"
