Hearing Lin Zheng's words, Xu Bing took two steps, walked in front of him, and asked: "Are you saying that the hot pot we had just now was prepared by you yourself?"
"yes.
In fact, I’m not only talented in music, I’m also quite talented in eating.”
Lin Zheng laughed and continued walking forward.
Xu Bing nodded with deep understanding and said: "Not to mention, the hot pot you made is really delicious. If you open a shop, with your current influence, you will definitely make money."
"So, I have found all the stores.
Hey, this is it."
Lin Zheng looked at the plaque, then stopped and walked inside.
This is a two-story shop with a usable area of 300 square meters, which is more than enough to open a hot pot restaurant.
It used to sell high-end furniture, but now Yuncheng has opened a special furniture building, and everyone selling household items has gone there, so this store wants to be transferred out.
It's just that the rent here is not cheap and the area is too large, so it hasn't been rented out for a while.
In fact, for Lin Zheng, this area is a bit larger. After he got the hot pot recipe, he actually wanted to build a hot pot restaurant of about 100 square meters.
But it happened to be for rent here and the location was good, so I came over to take a look first.
It is worth mentioning that Edmond Western Restaurant is also on this street, not too far from here.
"Hello, sir, hello, madam, our store has been relocated, and there are not many furniture in the store now..." A waitress came up and said apologetically.
"Oh, we're not buying furniture, we're here to look at the house."
Lin Zhengdao.
"You two want to rent this shop?"
the waitress asked.
Lin Zheng nodded, and then asked: "Can you show us?"
"Of course, you two, please come with me."
The waitress took Lin Zheng and Xu Bing upstairs and downstairs for a walk. After returning to the first floor, Lin Zheng asked Xu Bing, "What do you think?"
“The place is nice, but isn’t it too big?”
Xu Bing said worriedly.
With such a large area, the investment must be huge, and the risks will naturally increase.
Lin Zheng nodded and said: "Actually, I only wanted to build a space of about 100 square meters at first, but this place is for rent and the location is good, so I will take you to have a look."
"Sir, if you are really willing, I can call the boss here. Our boss said that if you really want to rent it, the price can be easily negotiated."
The waiter said.
Lin Zhengdao: "Then call your boss.
Oh, let him meet us at Edmund's.
Sister Bing, leave me your business card."
"OK.
I’ll call the boss right now.”
The waiter took Xu Bing's business card, respectfully sent the two of them off, and quickly called the boss.
"We are all full, why should we go to a Western restaurant?"
Xu Bing said.
"Mr. Edmund and I are considered friends. Now that we are here, why not pay a visit?"
Lin Zheng smiled.
"You want to inquire about the rental situation?"
Xu Bing suddenly thought of this and asked.
"Just asking."
"I find you are quite hypocritical."
"Yeah?
So do you think I’m being hypocritical to you?”
Lin Zheng asked.
Xu Bing snorted and walked forward.
"What's this expression?
I didn't do anything to you?"
Lin Zheng touched his nose and said to himself curiously.
When Xu Bing heard this, he said resentfully in his heart: "It's because you didn't do anything to me that I'm not happy."
The two came to the western restaurant. Mr. Edmund was no longer busy. When he learned that Lin Zheng was coming, he quickly invited him to the private room.
"Lin, why are you free to come here today?
what do you want to eat?
I’ll make it for you myself.”
Edmund hugged Lin Zheng warmly and then asked.
"Mr. Edmund, I'm not here to eat today. I'm mainly here to see you and inquire about the rent here."
Lin Zheng said.
"Then have a drink.
Hold on."
Edmund went out for a while, then came back with a bottle of red wine and three glasses.
At this time, Lin Zheng had taken off his hat and eyes, and his ever-changing facial makeup had returned to his own appearance.
"Two drinks is enough, she still has to drive."
Lin Zheng pointed at Xu Bing and said.
"Lin, there are always many beautiful girls around you. I really envy you."
Edmund joked.
"Haha! That's because I'm too handsome and can't help it.
Mr. Edmund, has business been good recently?"
Lin Zheng joked.
"Thanks to you, business in the store is very good now, and the attendance rate is very high."
Edmund patted Lin Zheng on the shoulder, then showed curiosity and asked: "You just said you wanted to inquire about the rent here?
What business do you want to do?"
Lin Zheng smiled and said, "I want to open a hot pot restaurant, and I won't compete with you for business."
"Haha, Lin, you are so funny..." Edmund had a drink with Lin Zheng, and then talked about the overall rent situation of nearby shops, and Lin Zheng already knew it.
At this time, the waiter came in with a middle-aged woman, and saw that Mr. Edmund was also there. The two were old acquaintances, and they had a few warm conversations.
Mr. Edmund introduced Lin Zheng to her, and the middle-aged woman immediately came over to shake hands excitedly: "Mr. Lin, I really didn't expect it to be you?
Can I take a photo with you?"
"sure."
Lin Zheng stood up and took a photo with her. At this time, Edmund said, "You guys talk first, and I'll get you a fruit plate."
"Mr. Lin, please introduce yourself. My name is Zhang Yuxia, and I am the boss of Shangpin Home Furnishing.
Now that there are still two years left on the lease of that store, I will give you the original price. What do you think?
This is the contract I signed before."
Zhang Yuxia said, opening the photo album on her phone and letting Lin Zheng take a look.
"Boss Zhang, the price you mentioned is very suitable, we rented it."
Lin Zheng had already inquired about the price with Edmund just now, and the price quoted by Zhang Yuxia was indeed not high, so Lin Zheng agreed without saying anything.
"Very good.
You have helped me solve an urgent problem, so let’s sign the contract now?”
Zhang Yuxia asked.
“We each take what we need, and it’s not really helping.
Then sign it, when can you take away the remaining furniture?"
Lin Zheng asked.
"I'll clear them all out tonight, I won't waste your time."
Zhang Yuxia said.
“Boss Zhang is so refreshing!”
Lin Zheng and Zhang Yuxia signed a sublease contract, and then directly transferred the money to Zhang Yuxia.
"Mr. Lin is also a cheerful person! This is my business card. If you need any furniture in the future, just come to me and I will give you the lowest price."
Zhang Yuxia smiled.
"Okay, then I'd like to thank Boss Zhang first."
Lin Zheng took the business card with a smile and said.
"May I ask, what kind of business does Mr. Lin want to do?"
Zhang Yuxia asked curiously.
Lin Zhengdao: "I plan to open a hot pot music restaurant. Boss Zhang is welcome to visit then."
"That's for sure.
I will definitely be there when you open your business."
Zhang Yuxia said with a hearty smile.
"Boss Zhang, please keep it a secret for us before we open. We want to maintain a sense of mystery for the time being."
Lin Zheng warned.
"Understood! I won't say anything to others.
Well, let’s do this for today, I will make arrangements now and try to free the house for you before dark.”
Zhang Yuxia exchanged a few pleasantries and left in a hurry.
Xu Bing said with some emotion: "Aren't you going too fast?"
“If the price is right, rent it. What’s there to think about?
Next let’s find a decoration company.”
Lin Zheng stood up and walked outside with Xu Bing.
At this time, Edmund came over with a fruit plate: "Lin, are you leaving so soon?
Not settled yet?"
"No, we have signed the contract and now we are looking for a decoration company.
In a few days, we will be neighbors, and you are welcome to taste my original hot pot."
Lin Zheng invited.
"That's for sure, I will definitely be there then."
Edmund smiled and agreed, but then his eyes widened and he asked in disbelief: "Lin, what did you just say?
