Since several people had no objections to the shop, they began to discuss the price.
According to Su Xiaotian, it is best to buy it.
Anyway, if you buy a shop this year, you won’t lose money. If you sell it in the future, you can make a fortune.
But the owner of the shop was only willing to rent it out and refused to sell it.
This made Su Xiaotian a little regretful.
There is always something uneasy about a rented shop.
What if the other party sees that business is good and wants to take the shop back?
Even if a contract is signed, the contract may not be followed.
But now, there is no other way but to rent it first.
The owner of the shop asked for a rent of fifteen yuan a month, but Su Xiaotian thought it was too expensive.
Qi Liangying also thought it was too expensive. After the two of them lowered the price, the owner of the shop set the rent at ten yuan a month.
At ten yuan a month, the rent is not expensive, but it is not cheap either.
After all, this shop is really not big.
Seeing that such a small shop cost ten yuan a month, Qi Liangying felt very sad.
Li Zhuzi and his wife bought a yard and shop in the county town, and they only spent 200 yuan.
No wonder Xiaotian said that shops in the capital city are very expensive, but even in the provincial capital, the price is so expensive that even the capital city would not dare to think of it.
Finally, the shop was rented and a contract was signed for three years.
It was Su Xiaotian's intention to sign for three years. Although Qi Liangying didn't know why, Xiaotian said so and she followed Xiaotian's wishes.
Anyway, the money is not given all at once, but on a quarterly basis, and the number of years the contract is signed is not important in Qi Liangying's opinion.
Su Xiaotian originally planned to advance the money herself, but Qi Liangying insisted on paying it herself.
When she came out of the factory, the factory gave her a severance package.
Qi Liangying planned to use the money to open a shop.
The other party took the first quarter's rent and left, and Qi Liangying had already rolled up her sleeves and was getting ready to clean.
There was nothing else in the shop, but there was a set of cleaning tools.
Su Xiaotian also helped with cleaning.
The hygiene of the shop is indeed not very good. It can be seen that no one has bothered to clean it up for a long time.
Because they were considering selling food, the two of them cleaned very carefully.
"Xiaotian, you need to give this corner a good wipe."
"There is so much ash on the roof, it looks so dull."
"I'll clean up here, second mom, I'll make sure it's wiped clean!"
The two ladies talked to each other and worked very enthusiastically.
Su Laoer and Su Shouwen went out and didn't know what they were doing.
When the mother and son had finished cleaning the house, the father and son came back.
The two of them brought back all kinds of items needed to open a shop, carrying them in their hands and on their bodies.
Qi Liangying smiled when she saw her husband thinking so carefully.
When she wanted to start a business, she was actually worried about her husband's objections, but she didn't expect that her husband would be so supportive.
She hurriedly and considerately stepped forward and asked Su Laoer to rest quickly.
"It's not tiring either. Shouwen and I first separated the room at the back and set up the stove."
Su Laoer wiped the sweat from his forehead and said happily.
"Second Mom, this shop looks really different now that you guys have cleaned it up."
After the originally dusty shop was cleaned, it really changed a lot.
"It will definitely be better when we go back to arrange it." Su Xiaotian had already thought about how to arrange it.
Spending the least amount of money to decorate the small shop so that it makes people's eyes light up is Su Xiaotian's goal.
"You still need a counter. Then put the braised meat, braised vegetables, braised eggs, etc. on the counter, and then cover it with a gauze cover to keep it clean."
Su Xiaotian said and gestured.
In fact, it would be better if it could be made into a transparent glass cover.
But in this day and age, the price of glass is extremely expensive, and the second mother may be reluctant to part with it.
Let’s talk about it later when we make money later.
"Okay, I'll go to the flea market later and have a look. If it doesn't work out, I'll just buy wood and make a new one myself." Su Laoer smiled cheerfully and continued the work at the counter.
"The wall is a little gray, so I'll go back and get some white dust and paint it again."
Su Shouwen was also thinking carefully about what else could be improved.
One afternoon passed, and several people had tidied up the shop and the house behind it.
"The only thing missing is the counter in front. Once the counter is up, we can open it on a good day."
Qi Liangying looked at the new shop with satisfaction, as if she could see the days of making money in the future right in front of her.
At this time, it was completely dark, so a few people found a small restaurant nearby and spent three yuan for a meal before returning to the guest house.
I asked the waiter at the front desk and found out that Su Ciliang and others had not returned yet.
"I estimate that Second Brother and the others will definitely be back early tomorrow morning. This time there will be fewer people but more goods. Let's go to the train station to pick them up."
Su Xiaotian thought of this and said.
Su Shouwen felt that Su Xiaotian had the same idea, so he said they would go to the train station together the next day.
"I remembered that there was a train to the provincial capital at around eight o'clock in the morning. Let's go and take a look." Su Shouwen specially read the train timetable.
Su Laoer and Qi Liangying would not object.
The next day, the four of us went to the train station together early in the morning.
Qi Liangying was very excited and kept staring at the platform.
She hadn't seen her son for more than half a year. As a mother, when she didn't think about him, she didn't think about it at all. Now that her son was about to arrive, her longing became even more intense.
"Second mother, are you happy to see your second brother later?" Su Xiaotian clearly saw Qi Liangying's excitement, so she asked narrowly.
Qi Liangying looked at Su Xiaotian angrily and said, "You kid, you are so naughty!"
Just as a few people were talking, I saw a few familiar people.
Qi Liangying looked at her son and was so excited that she almost cried.
This brat is already at the door of his house, and he doesn't know how to go home first.
When Su Ciliang saw his parents in the crowd, he was so surprised that he could hardly close his mouth.
Why are his parents here? They are here with Brother Xiaotian.
"Dad, Mom, why are you here?"
Qi Liangying said angrily: "When you arrive at the door of your house, you don't know how to go home and have a look. You don't want us as parents to come and see you?"
Su Laoer looked at the people following Su Ciliang carrying large and small bags, and said hurriedly: "Don't talk about old times now. When we have time later, let's take the things back first."
Women are troublesome. There are many people at the station. What should I do if I lose one or two items?
Qi Liangying also reacted and hurriedly stepped forward to help carry things.
I have to say that a few people brought back a lot of goods from this trip.
Even if four more people were added to help, it would still be exhausting.
After finally moving so many goods to the guest house, several people were already paralyzed from exhaustion.
Su Xiaotian poured boiling water for each of them.
"Drink some water first, second brother. You have worked hard along the way, and I'm afraid you haven't eaten well either."
Su Ciliang smiled and said, "It's not bad. We took turns to rest along the way, and Lin Lin made food for us. It's not bad at the moment."
