Chapter 131 Looking for a storefront

When Comrade Xu came out of Wu Yali's house, he raised his hand and looked at the time on his watch. It was almost two o'clock in the morning.

After walking more than ten meters away, Xu Tongdao couldn't help but stop and look back at the door of her house. Wu Yali, who had just opened the door for him and sent him out, had disappeared and the door was closed.

——The human face is nowhere to be seen, but the peach blossoms still smile in the spring breeze...

This sentence flashed through his mind inexplicably.

Thinking of these words, he smiled.

Thinking about it now, his experience at her house tonight was like a dream, quite unreal. When they were upstairs, he impulsively kissed her, but she rejected him and told him to leave quickly.

He left, and the speed was indeed as she expected - quite fast.

But unexpectedly, when he was about to open the door and leave, she caught up with him again. What happened next was that she took the initiative and took him back to the second floor, and then back to the leaky room on the second floor, taking the clothes from him.

Several quilts brought out from the cupboard were spread haphazardly on the bed, and what happened next is indescribable.

Her enthusiasm and initiative were beyond his imagination.

It is precisely because of this that when he thinks back on it now, he feels like he has just dreamed.

He lowered his head and took out the cigarette case, lit another cigarette, squinted his eyes, turned around and continued walking in the direction of the rental.

On the riverside road in the early morning, the cool breeze blew on his face and body, making his rationality gradually return.

He knew that the matter between him and Wu Yali was still a secret in a short period of time.

Not only because there is a 7-year age difference between them, but also because he is only 17 years old, and she is still married with a child.

Fortunately she is a widow and the man is dead.

The most important thing before him is to open a store as soon as possible and continue to make money.

Regarding the future between him and Wu Yali, he didn't want to think about it for the time being because he couldn't figure it out at all and there were too many obstacles between them.

To be honest, he was a little fascinated by her amorous feelings in bed.

His Taoist heart was a little unstable again.

When he returned to his residence, Xu Tonglin was still asleep.

Comrade Xu looked at him and then washed his face and feet gently. After going to bed, he still couldn't sleep. He was thinking about what happened tonight and what he should do in the next few days.

He didn't know exactly what time he finally fell asleep.

He slept until about 8 a.m. the next morning, when Xu Tonglin called him to get up and eat, and he opened his sleepy eyes in a daze.

Xu Tonglin frowned and looked at his face suspiciously, "Xiaodao, your drinking capacity is too bad, right? You haven't fully recovered yet?"

Comrade Xu leaned on the bed to calm down. Hearing this, he wanted to laugh a little, "Yes! It seems that my drinking capacity is far worse than yours. Next time I have a drink, please help me hold back a few more drinks!"

Xu Tonglin nodded, his expression a little proud, "That's right! You don't even look at how much more meat I have than you. Think about it, if the same alcohol is diluted into our bodies, it must be the concentration here.

It’s lower! Right? Hey, get up and eat quickly! Hurry up!”

"good!"



While having breakfast together, Comrade Xu looked at the drizzle that was still falling outside, and said to Xu Tonglin: "Lin Zi, let's go and see what stores are for rent on that street later. It's best to have two-story stores."

Three rooms connected together.”

Xu Tonglin hummed, buried his head and slurped a few more bites of noodles. Suddenly he stopped his chopsticks, raised his head and asked, "By the way, Xiaodao, did you agree to let me become a shareholder last night? I feel so

Something happened."

Comrade Xu glanced at him, smiled and nodded.

He could tell - Xu Tonglin couldn't remember clearly what happened last night when he bought shares, and he might be wondering if it was a dream he had when he was drunk last night.

But since he promised Xu Tonglin, he will not regret it.

Xu Tonglin's eyes lit up, "You want me to buy 10% of the shares? Right?"

Comrade Xu nodded.

Xu Tonglin was happy, thought about it, and asked hesitantly: "It seems that you also said that you will never dilute my 10% share. Is this true?"

Comrade Xu still smiled and nodded.

After the meal, they both put on their rubber boots, took up their umbrellas, and went to the street where they had set up stalls every day, looking for storefronts with rental notices along the street.

This street is very deserted during the day, more than 80% of the stores are closed, and there are few pedestrians on the road. It is completely incomparable with the bustling scene at night.

Although there are not many storefronts with rental notices, you can still see one or two from time to time. However, two adjacent stores have rental notices posted on them, so it is not easy to find them.

After walking more than half a street, they saw three connected shops with signs for rent on the roadside.

Moreover, these three stores should have been a dance hall before, and the sign above the door said dance hall.

Seeing the leasing notices posted on the doors of these three stores, Xu Tongdao and Xu Tonglin stopped at the same time.

Looking at the three stores from both sides, Xu Tonglin asked hesitantly: "Xiaodao, can you look at these three stores?"

Tongdao Xu frowned and shook his head slightly.

He was not very satisfied with these three stores.

First of all, this place is a bit far away from where they set up their stalls every night, and the section where they set up their stalls every day... is the most lively place on this street at night, with the largest flow of customers.

In comparison, the location of the three stores in front of me is much deserted at night.

For catering... it's not that you can't choose an unpopular location. For example, the private restaurants he had heard of before were usually located in remote locations.

Because the earliest private dishes were made by wealthy families who had no choice but to cook delicacies based on family recipes and sell them to the outside world.

The place of business is your own home.

This is the original appearance of private kitchen.

But private kitchens can become popular mainly because they have private recipes passed down from their ancestors.

It is no different from a secret martial arts secret book, it is an exclusive secret recipe.

And does Comrade Xu have such an exclusive secret recipe?

It is true that he is good at a few dishes, barbecue recipes and techniques, and he is indeed many years ahead in this small county, but he does not think that those he knows are some unique secret recipes.

What's more, if you open the door to do business, why should you make it more difficult to make money?

Wouldn't it be better to choose an area with the most customer traffic?

"Then what should we do? Where we just walked, there were single stores for rent!" Xu Tonglin scratched his head, feeling a little discouraged.

Comrade Xu looked back at where he came from, thought for a moment, and walked back, "It's okay! Let's go back and have a look! Let's see which ones are doing worse business and see if we can take over!"

He has seen similar things before.

For some stores with poor business, as long as the sublease price is right, the store owners will actually consider selling and subletting.

Not long after, the two stopped in front of a beef noodle restaurant. On the door of the adjacent store to the east of this beef noodle restaurant, there was a notice for rent.

And this beef noodle restaurant... this morning, it was actually open and in business.

There was not a single diner in the store, only a man in his thirties sitting behind the first dining table at the door, holding a white enamel teapot in both hands.

There are five red letters on this enamel teapot - Qiaotou Fertilizer Factory.
