Wang Xudong smoked a cigarette and looked around inside and out. He was very satisfied with the place. It had several conditions he wanted most. The first condition was that it faced the street and was a main road in the city. He needed this kind of high-rise building.
The most important thing for traffic is an elegant place. The second condition is that there is an independent entrance and exit space. Unlike shopping malls and office buildings, this is the first floor facing the street, with independent entrance and exit doors. The third condition is that the environment is good enough and the area is large enough.
Wang Xudong didn't hesitate and agreed directly. When talking about the rent, the landlord hesitated for a long time and finally said to Wang Xudong: "I rented this place to that video game city at a price of 50 yuan per square meter per month.
You’re here to rent, and you’ll pay it every six months. You’re Deng Suo’s friend, so there’s no way I won’t give you face. Let’s do this, brother, I’ll pay you three hundred yuan per square meter per month, and I’ll pay you quarterly.”
After hearing the price, Wang Xudong secretly calculated in his mind that the monthly rent of 300 yuan per square meter would be almost 150,000 yuan, and the annual rent would be 1.8 million yuan, which was a bit too high for him.
"Isn't this a little too high?"
"Brother, this is really not high. Look around here. It's not the price of my family. It's the price of everyone. The price of small storefronts is more expensive. Where is this place? This is Wuyi Avenue, the main road of the city, Deng Suo
He is the parent official of this area, and Deng Suo is very clear about the prices in this area, right?"
"Three hundred yuan is a bit high, so let's do it. I won't say anything. Let's go for two hundred and five. This is my brother. Two hundred and five dollars means it's easy for everyone to talk. If you talk well, I will talk easy, right?" Director Deng
He patted the landlord boss on the shoulder and said.
How could the landlord not know what Director Deng meant? He said with a sad face: "Deng, you said that. Of course I can't say anything, but... but the number two hundred and five is not nice, so let's just say two hundred and six."
"What's the deal with two hundred and fifty when doing business? Business people like round numbers, just two hundred and five, that's it, don't say anything more. If you think it's okay, just sign the contract." Deng Suo finally spoke.
So, Wang Xudong and the landlord signed the lease contract directly there. The rent was finally calculated to be 130,000 a month, minus any fraction. After signing the contract, the landlord forced Wang Xudong and Deng Suo to
Invite me to dinner. In the end, Wang Xudong insisted that he buy it. When doing things, you must be principled and humane. If you can get this appearance at this price, the landlord is really cut off. Before leaving, Wang Xudong waved to Director Deng.
When saying goodbye, he put 20,000 yuan in cash on the seat of Deng's car without leaving any trace. He didn't say anything. Director Deng saw it and pretended not to have seen it. The two waved goodbye, and Director Deng drove away.
Everyone understands it tacitly.
Wang Xudong asked Li Xiaotian to help him drive home. He drank a lot. When Wang Xudong got home, Su Wanqi was already mopping the floor. There were bowls, chopsticks and vegetables on the table. Obviously, Su Wanqi had cooked the food herself.
She also left some food for Wang Xudong. Because it was too late, she ate first.
Before this, Wang Xudong would never believe that Su Wanqi would cook and mop the floor herself.
"Leave it here. If you have nothing to do, just sit there and rest. The floor is quite clean. Why drag it?"
"It's okay. I have nothing to do anyway. I need to exercise after eating. Why did you come back so late? Have you eaten?" Su Wanqi asked.
Wang Xudong wanted to say that he had eaten outside, but when he saw the food that Su Wanqi had left there, he smiled and said, "I didn't eat. I was delayed by something in the store, so I came back a little late."
"Let's eat then. The dinner I made was left for you, but it doesn't taste very good. You can just eat some." Su Wanqi pointed to the food on the table and said.
"Wow, it's so rich." Wang Xudong walked over with a smile. The food was still hot, so he filled a bowl of rice and ate it.
"Well, not bad, delicious, delicious, very delicious, so delicious." Wang Xudong praised it while eating.
Su Wanqi looked at Wang Xudong eating loudly, feeling joy and warmth from the bottom of her heart. She walked over and said, "Okay, stop pretending. I'll eat it before you. I know the taste myself. It's really not delicious, so I can eat it."
It’s just swallowing. I’ve already cooked the same three dishes for lunch, and I couldn’t swallow them at all. I gained some experience in the evening and was finally able to eat them.”
"No, I really think it tastes good. It tastes much better than what I made. If you don't believe me, try it."
"I've tasted it a long time ago. If you think it tastes good, just eat more." Su Wanqi mopped the floor next to Wang Xudong and suddenly smelled it.
Su Wanqi stood there with a frown, and then asked Wang Xudong: "Did you really not have dinner?"
"No, there's something going on in the store. I work overtime there, so I'll be late when I get back." Wang Xudong ate heavily, but didn't respond.
"Then why do you smell so strongly of alcohol?"
"Ah...the smell of alcohol? Is it...is it...is it there? Oh, that's right. In the afternoon, I drank some wine with a customer in the store, so..."
Wang Xudong was interrupted by Su Wanqi before he finished speaking.
"Thank you." Su Wanqi said to Wang Xudong, she said it from the bottom of her heart. She knew why Wang Xudong lied and said he didn't come back after eating, and why he pretended to be so delicious even though it was clearly not delicious.
"Thank you. To be honest, first, it is indeed delicious. Of course, your cooking cannot be compared with the chefs in the hotel, but for beginners, it is already very impressive. Second, I did have a social event in the evening,
I drank with others outside, but as you know, everyone at the wine table is drinking. Where can I eat? I am really hungry." Wang Xudong said as he ate.
After finishing eating, Wang Xudong asked Su Wanqi: "Has the submission of resumes been settled today?"
"Well, one of the two companies called me and asked me to go for an interview tomorrow." Su Wanqi nodded, and it was obvious that she was in a good mood.
"I used to interview people, but now it's their turn to interview me." Su Wanqi said with a smile.
"Then come on, I'm going to another place tomorrow afternoon. Please pay attention to your own safety and call me if you need anything."
The next day Wang Xudong still got up early in the morning, and then drove the van directly to the newly rented store. The key to the store was now in his hand. Then, a car came, and several people still got out of the car.
, Wang Xudong even still remembers that these three people were the ones who decorated his studio.
Wang Xudong called the decoration company yesterday and was very satisfied with the last decoration, so Wang Xudong contacted the same decoration company this time. (To be continued)
