There are more than thirty merchants in Paris Street, so the survey this time was also very fast. Originally, according to the arrangement, we were not allowed to stay here for more than ten minutes at most, but the city's top leaders went deep into the masses and listened to the voices of the merchants.
Although Sister Luo and others also heard what Mr. Hu said, in the end, they still spoke out what was in their hearts.
"Our street has already established a brand effect. The merchants value credibility and ensure quality. But now, it's all because of the mess on the other side."
"Those people across the street not only arbitrarily occupy the road for business, but the quality of the products they sell is also questionable."
"Those dark sheds they have are really an eyesore to the city. It makes me uncomfortable when I see them!"
…
The final result of these mixed reactions was that an hour after the investigation ended, Deputy Director Li from the office came to Shen Lin's store.
"Xiao Shen, according to the spirit of the above research, it is up to you to take over the renovation of the shops opposite." Director Li said solemnly: "There is only one requirement, and that is that the specifications of these shops must not be lower than what you have now Stores used.”
“The leadership requires that the bright spot of a Paris-style street must be created well, and it must fully achieve the effect of lighting up a lamp and illuminating a large area!”
It can be said that Shen Lin has been looking forward to this decision for a long time, but on the surface, he looked embarrassed and said: "Director Li, the shop opposite has been rented to others, I will step in now..."
"Don't worry, the Cotton and Linen Company has already checked. Their leasing this time was just a verbal decision by the deputy manager, a private act, and there was no written contract."
Director Li waved his hand and said: "The cotton and linen company will come forward to take back those shops, so you don't have to worry about this."
Looking at Director Li who looked confident, Shen Lin suddenly felt relieved. It was indeed much better for the cotton and linen company to take back the shop than for him to take it back.
"But Xiao Shen, the cotton and linen company has proposed that you rent these shops to operate, and one year's rent and security deposit are indispensable."
"Their opinion is that you have to pay at least one year's rent and security deposit to ensure that this place will be turned into a shop like Paris Street."
Director Li smacked his lips and said, "You should know this number better than we do, it's probably more than 20,000 yuan."
"More than 20,000 yuan, you must hand it over to the cotton and linen company before the day after tomorrow. Otherwise, they can only choose another partner based on your breach of contract!"
More than 20,000 yuan is not a big number at all for Shen Lin. He currently has a total of 60,000 to 70,000 yuan in his bankbook.
So Shen Lin didn't take this request to heart yet.
"Xiao Shen, this condition of the Cotton and Linen Company is actually to stop some people's mouths, so you must complete it as soon as possible."
"I know, for you, Xiao Shen, this problem can be solved in minutes, right?"
Shen Lin looked at Director Li's vague words and understood in his heart that this was a matter that was directly entrusted to him. I'm afraid someone might have objections.
He immediately expressed his stance: "Please rest assured, Director Li, if you respect me in this matter, I will promise to do it properly and never embarrass you!"
Director Li smiled with satisfaction and patted Shen Lin on the shoulder: "Young man, do a good job, I'm optimistic about you!"
At this moment, a burst of noise came from outside, and someone shouted loudly: "I won't move, Du Beikang, you collected my rent, and I won't move!"
When Shen Lin heard this, he looked up and saw two familiar figures standing across the road.
It's Du Beikang and Boss Li.
These two people who are so good that they wish they could wear a pair of trousers are now spitting like stars, looking like sparks are flying around them.
Shen Lin had no intention of paying attention to the dispute between the two people. He continued to discuss the next matter with Director Li.
After finishing what he had to explain, Director Li quickly said goodbye and left. Just when Shen Lin returned to the store, he saw Du Beikang, whose face was a little swollen, limping in.
Du Beikang glanced at Shen Lin with hatred, and when Shen Lin looked at him calmly, Du Beikang suddenly had a trace of depression in his eyes.
He pulled out his chair, sat down directly opposite Shen Lin and said, "Boss Shen, can we chat for a while?"
Shen Lin nodded and said: "Of course, please sit down, Boss Du. Qiangzi will give Boss Du a glass of water."
Qiangzi had been in the store when Director Li came. When he heard that the cotton and linen company rented the row of shops opposite to Shen Lin, he immediately became happy.
How could Qiangzi have sympathy for a lost dog like Du Beikang? He immediately brought a glass of water and placed it heavily in front of Du Beikang.
"Boss Shen, I know, are you messing with me?" Du Beikang didn't drink the water. He looked at Shen Lin fiercely, his voice full of resentment.
Before Shen Lin could speak, Qiangzi had already stepped forward and said, "Du, what are you talking about? If you are a Crab, if you walk sideways in your store, no one will pay attention to you!"
"But if you come to our store to provoke someone for nothing, I'll slap you!"
Du Beikang's short body, coupled with the fact that he had just been pushed twice by Boss Li, made him feel a little unsure.
After being scolded by the young and energetic Qiangzi a few times, his face became even more ugly. He wanted to get angry, but he moved his lips a few times and held back.
"Qiangzi, go and do your business. Boss Du and I have something to talk about."
Shen Lin smiled at Boss Du and said: "Old Du, you said I was messing with you, aren't you a Zhubajie slut, so you can beat him up? I see that your surname is Du has never stopped, and I have never found it for you. Stay out of trouble!"
Shen Lin's voice was not high, but there was a hint of coldness in his words.
Du Beikang looked at Shen Lin's cold eyes and couldn't help but tremble in his heart. He had always known that Shen Lin was not easy to mess with, but at this moment, Shen Lin gave him a terrible feeling.
"Boss Shen, I'm not hiding anything. Regarding Ye Yichen, I admit that what I did was wrong." Taking a breath, Du Beikang looked at Shen Lin and said: "But...but you can't stop me either. A way out!"
Looking at Du Beikang, who looked like he was asking questions, a playful smile appeared on Shen Lin's face. He said lightly: "There is an old saying, if someone doesn't offend me, I won't offend him; if someone offends me, be courteous. Three points; if someone offends me again, I will give you a shot; if someone offends me again, I will eradicate the root cause. You have come to where you are today because of yourself."
"You and Ye Yichen conspired to take back my place, but if that didn't work, you rented the opposite side and wanted to use the chicken to lay eggs. Don't you think your wishful thinking was too good?"
"You're taking advantage of me. Are you addicted to taking advantage of me, or do you think I, Shen Lin, am a soft persimmon and it's fun to pinch me?"
Du Beikang was choked by Shen Lin's words and had nothing to say. Now that Du Beikang has been completely defeated, it is useless to say anything more.
So, he tried his best to calm down his emotions and said: "Boss Shen, I admit defeat this time. I came here just to talk to you about something."
"In this place across the street, I have invested thousands of dollars anyway. Whether it's pushing down the wall or opening the door, I'm the one looking for it."
"Since you want to take over this place, why don't you invest the thousands of dollars in it for me? After all, your investment will be saved in the future."
After saying this, Du Beikang looked at Shen Lin eagerly.
