Chapter 159: Don't even think about increasing the rent
Paris style street, store No. 2!
It was already past eight o'clock in the evening, and although there were still a lot of people coming to watch on the street, they were no longer as busy as they were during the day.
But the closed No. 2 store was filled with solemnity at this time.
Sister Luo, Boss Tong and others didn't leave, and they didn't even have dinner. After all, compared with what was happening before them, if they didn't eat one or two meals, they wouldn't have much appetite.
"Sister Luo, I said that we have been discussing here, but they are all just words. This is not a solution. Tomorrow Shen Lin will refund the rent to us!" A middle-aged man with a fat and round face was a little impatient. said.
He is Ma Yuncheng, the owner of Store No. 9, who mainly deals in children's clothing. In the past, when he sold children's clothing in the wholesale market, due to fierce competition, even though he went out early and came back late, he did not make much money.
However, since I moved to this Paris Street, although I have been very tired these days, the money I earn is several times that of the wholesale market.
This kind of situation where the rising tide lifts all boats is something he could never imagine in the past. He would not be willing to move out!
Sister Luo glanced at Ma Yuncheng and was furious: "If you have a way, just tell me!"
This sentence immediately choked Ma Yuncheng and made him speechless. Yes, as long as he has some way, why should he be anxious here?
Just when everyone was anxious, someone heard complaining: "When there were rumors that Shen Lin had run away, I advised you not to believe those rumors."
"But you, you all just didn't believe it, and you dragged me to Shen Lin's wife's workplace, where you started yelling and making trouble!"
"If I hadn't run away with you, how could I have turned my rent into an IOU!"
This complaint suddenly filled the already depressing air with gunpowder gas. At that moment, someone said: "Li Suanding, don't be an afterthought here!"
"When you were running to find Shen Lin's wife for a refund, weren't you jumping up and down too low?"
"What, now you're blaming others again? No one wants to do this!"
The man known as Li Suanding is a man in his forties who wears glasses. He has a bit of an irritable appearance and his middle-parted hairstyle is quite different from the others.
"Who do I blame? Who spread this rumor? Who do I blame!" Li Suan Ding said loudly, scratching her neck.
A middle-aged man who had lowered his head and said nothing suddenly stood up and said: "Li Suanding, my brother-in-law is not doing everything for everyone's good!"
"If you believe Shen Lin, you won't believe what my brother-in-law says."
"What, you feel you've been fooled now? If you feel you've been fooled, go find the regret medicine and take it. I'm telling you, if you talk nonsense again, be careful I slap you hard."
Before Li Suanding could speak, someone heard someone say: "Chen Luopi, what are you bluffing about? Your brother-in-law caused everyone to be like this, you are still reasonable."
"My temper has changed in the past two days. Otherwise, I would have had to clean up that little thing, and he would have done me a lot of harm."
And with these words, all kinds of voices came and went, and the atmosphere in the whole room was about to explode!
Seeing how noisy everyone was, Sister Luo couldn't bear it any longer. She slapped the table and said, "Shut up, everyone!"
"If any of you come to my place to discuss something, just sit here for me. If anyone is looking for trouble here, get out of here!"
Over the past few days, Sister Luo has established quite a prestige with her unrivaled pride and warm-heartedness.
Now that she is angry, the noisy people become more honest.
After the surroundings fell silent, Sister Luo glanced around and said, "Is it useful for you to discuss whose responsibility it is now?"
"Do you think that if you find a scapegoat, you can expose everything that happened last time and you can still keep your shop?"
Some people who originally had small thoughts couldn't help but put away their small thoughts when they heard what Sister Luo said.
After all, such petty thoughts are shameful. Once Sister Luo breaks it off, they can't continue to be entangled in this matter.
"Sister Luo, you have an idea, what should we do?" Boss Tong took a deep puff of the cigarette in his hand.
Sister Luo glanced at everyone and said, "Since we have done something wrong, we must be punished."
"Sister Luo, what you mean is that we go to Shen Lin to apologize together, but we have already apologized to him today, and he won't accept it at all!" Boss Tong spread his hands and said helplessly.
"If an apology is useful, then the people who made the mistake will be overcrowded." Sister Luo said solemnly: "Boss Shen will never be satisfied with an apology."
"Then what else is he going to do?" a boss said unconvinced.
Sister Luo glanced at the person who spoke and said, "He still wants to take back his shop. After all, we don't have a lease contract now."
These words made the angry boss speechless. Although he wanted to be domineering and say that he would not rent if he did not rent, he knew very well that it was easy to say this, but it was really difficult to do it!
"I think what we have to do is two things. First, let Boss Shen know our apology; second, show our sincerity."
"This sincerity is the price to punish ourselves for our short-sightedness."
When Sister Luo said the word "price", everyone present fell silent. They knew very well that this price would definitely not be a few words.
This price is estimated to be double the rent, right?
"We have two thousand a year, which is already high enough, how could it be so outrageous..." A small boss who was reluctant to give up money was still holding his neck and plausibly speaking at first, but soon faded away.
What he said was directly ignored by the people discussing it.
For these people discussing, although they also feel sorry for the rent, it is not important. What is important is to save this cornucopia no matter what!
"Sister Luo, how much do you think we should increase the rent for Boss Shen?" someone said in a deep voice after pondering.
Sister Luo did not speak, but slowly stretched out five fingers and said: "A shop has to increase by this amount no matter what."
"Why didn't he rob it? I think even if we were wrong, we shouldn't give him a rent increase of 500. This is too much."
"Yes, five hundred is too much, I won't do it!"
"I won't do it either. At worst, I'll just find another place by myself!"
Listening to the sounds all around, Sister Luo shook her head. She didn't say anything more, but said in a deep voice: "Since everyone doesn't agree, then let's do our own things."
"Let's all leave today, I'm going back too."
Sister Luo's expulsion, coupled with the fact that even after such a long discussion, no one, two or three came out of the discussion, most people began to disperse.
Boss Tong was walking among the crowd, and all he could hear were the comments of his peers.
"Are you increasing the rent for Shen Lin?"
"Don't even think about it. I have that money, so I might as well spend it myself!"
"I don't know how. Whoever gives him a promotion will be his grandson. At worst, I will just leave!"
