Chapter 38 (2/2)
”Yes.” When the man saw that Li Mu was a young man, he knew that he would not buy his old cashmere pants. He responded casually.
Li Mu immediately took out a cigarette. The striking red color stunned the middle-aged male shopkeeper. He exclaimed in his heart: at such a young age, he even smoked in Greater China, which is really a luxury!
When he was greedy, Li Mu just took out two of them and threw them to each other. He exclaimed, ”I have been longing for Mongolia since I was a child. It's a good place!”
The middle-aged man took over the Chinese smoke thrown by Li Mu in the air with both hands. Excited, he immediately looked at Li Mu with great admiration. Anyway, he was also idle, so he took out the lighter and ignited it for Li Mu first.Li Mu is also very polite. When he sees the other side come to light his own cigarette, he protects the fire with both hands to show respect.
The impression of the middle-aged man on Li Mu was much better.
It's rare for a local boy who smokes China to be so polite to his peddler who is wandering around the country all year round.
So, he lit his cigarette and took a beautiful SIP: ”we have picturesque scenery in Mongolia Province, and my brother must go to have a look if he has a chance.”
Li Mu nodded and asked curiously, ”elder brother, are you Mongolian?”
The man laughed and said, ”yes, Mongolian people, my name is Bayan, blue flag people.”
Li Mu nodded: ”you should also be very hard in this kind of business!”
Bayan sighed, ”who says no! I've been working for five years, and I've almost run all over China. ”
Li Mu asked with a smile, ”how many days have you been in Haizhou? What's the business like? ”
”Not so!” Bayan shook his head discontentedly: ”people here are too stingy, and they love to bargain. Those big brothers and sisters, big brothers and aunts, holding cashmere pants of fifty yuan each, still need to offer me five yuan...”
make complaints about Bayan's Tucao. Li Mu smiles. Haizhou's consumption power is not high enough. Besides, the clothes that are in it are not even up to price. Besides, Haizhou's winter is not very cold. Cashmere trousers are not necessary for everyone.
Then, Li Mu asked his concern: ”this is the center of our city, isn't it expensive to rent such a store?”
”Not bad.” Bayan dusted his ashes: ”eighty yuan a day. I wanted to sell it here for a few days, but I didn't expect to sell real goods.”
It's Li Mu's turn to be surprised. It's 80 yuan a day. When we have a look here, three shops are connected. It's estimated to be 150 or 60 yuan at least. It's just that they are very messy. It seems that they just demolished the previous decoration. Now there's nothing in them. Apart from a pile of hanging cashmere pants, there are two other floors, which should be sleeping by Bayan and his wife.
”The rent here is not cheap. 80 yuan a day is a bargain.”
Bayan shook his head: ”I thought it was a bargain at first. The sublease owner told me that he used to do cloth business here, but the landlord will raise the price this year, so he won't rent it. Just as he said that there was a cloth market opening, there was a lot of traffic there, so he moved there. There is more than a week left for the real landlord to close That's why he rented it to me for $80 a day. ”
With that, Bayan said mysteriously, ”it is said that only 5000 yuan a month ago here, the real landlord will rise to 7000 this year!”
This is the message Li Mu wants.
More than seven thousand yuan a month? I don't know whether it's true or not. If it's true, it's really great.
But think about it. After all, the business is still in its infancy. The market prospect is uncertain and the investment confidence is insufficient. Once the retail industry, especially the clothing business, starts to break out, the rent here will surely skyrocket.
Bayan felt that Li Mu seemed to be very interested in the shop, and he thought that he would take the initiative to hand over the cigarette cover, so he asked: ”little brother, do you want to rent this shop?”
”Well.” Li Mu did not cover up, nodded.
As soon as Bayan reached out his hand, he took off the words of ”big sale” pasted on the wall beside him, revealing a printed A4 paper: the shop is for rent, 139*****
Li Mu immediately took out his mobile phone and wrote it down, threw the rest of the cigarettes to Bayan, and smiled: ”brother Bayan, thank you.”
Bayan didn't dare to accept it. Li Mu was far away when he wanted to go back.
He has no addiction to smoking in this life. Smoking is not an essential thing for him. Besides, it is harmful to his health. So if it's not necessary, it's better not to smoke or not.
