MTL - Serve as Contrast Team in a ‘Dad with Baby’ Show-Chapter 89 no money

Early the next morning, after the prepared breakfast was sold out, Hu Mao and his wife found Lin Cheng with their bank cards.

"We have been here for so many years and have saved some money, but we have two children to raise, and we have to send money to both families, so we don't save much. Here is 50,000 yuan. Do you think it will work? ?" Yang Fang pinched her bank card and asked without knowing it.

Lin Cheng thought about it and nodded.

"Yes." After a pause, Lin Cheng said again: "You only need to take out 40,000."

Hearing this, Hu Mao and the two were taken aback, and asked back: "Don't you need 50,000?"

"You don't need to invest too much in the early stage, and you still have to leave some money for your children to pay for tuition and books, to rent a house, right?"

"Take out 40,000 first, and I will try to make up for the difference in the process." Lin Cheng said.

"This, what an embarrassment." Hu Mao and Yang Fang said in unison.

They knew that Lin Cheng and Lin Momo would leave after filming the show, and the proposal to open a store was actually helping them. And this week, due to the constraints of the program, it was not easy for Lin Cheng and the others to make money.

Thinking about it this way, the husband and wife are really embarrassed to accept money from Lin Cheng's family.

It wasn't until Lin Cheng said that they would not take away the money they earned from the show that the husband and wife nodded and looked at Lin Cheng and Lin Momo with gratitude.

After some calculations, Hu Mao, Lin Cheng, and Lin Momo went out to the street.

The streets of the old town are not wide, but relatively complex.

"There are mainly three lively streets around here, one on this side, one on this side, and one on that side." Hu Mao pointed to the directions of several streets and introduced to Lin Cheng.

Several people walked on several streets one by one.

The first street is on the back of the main road. Although there are many shops on both sides, they are mainly nightclubs, and the time when the largest flow of people is mainly concentrated after 9 pm.

The second street is relatively narrow, and there are mostly unlicensed food stalls on both sides. It was here that Hu Mao's family sold Xiaolongbao in the morning.

…

After comparison, Lin Cheng finally chose another street adjacent to this one.

On one side of this street is an old-fashioned residential area, while on the other side is a newly built residential area. The first floor of the house next to the sidewalk is a shop.

It is close to the vegetable market and a school.

The point is that there are many small dining spots and small restaurants on both sides of the road. Judging from Hu Mao's statement, many of them are old shops that have been in business for more than ten or twenty years, or even more than thirty years.

Meeting Lin Momo's curious eyes, Lin Cheng patiently explained to her the reason for choosing this place.

"It is close to residential areas and there are many old shops, which proves that there is a stable source of repeat customers. Being close to the vegetable market can guarantee the sales of primary processed products, and there is no need to worry about soy snacks being sold out if there are schools nearby."

Another point: this is not a main road, and the rent of shops will be relatively low.

After listening to Lin Cheng's explanation, not only Lin Momo showed an expression of "that's how it is", but even Hu Mao who was beside him couldn't help but nodded.

The three of them walked back and forth on the street a few more times.

On the entire street, apart from restaurants, there are hardware stores, grocery stores, pharmacies, fruit stores, small clothing stores... almost everything you need. In addition, there are also some temporary two-dollar stores and decoration clearance stores here.

"The size and location of this store are not bad." Lin Cheng pointed to one of the stores that were selling clearance goods.

The shop is not big, about fifteen or six square meters, with all kinds of handicrafts and decorations scattered all over the floor, and the words "last day", "factory direct sales", and "bleeding big sale" are posted all over the store.

Lin Cheng and others came to a small food store not far from the store to inquire about the situation.

After chatting for a while, Lin Cheng got to the point: "Let me ask you, how many days has the store over there been open?"

"You said that the clearance store has been open for a few days. I don't remember exactly how long it was. It must have been five, six, seven or eight days." The owner of the small shop recalled.

"Do you know how much the rent is?"

"Those are rented by a single day. I really don't know how much it is per day. If you are interested in renting, you should ask the owner of the shop for details."

Lin Cheng nodded.

Several people found the owner's information on a rental notice posted next to the shop, borrowed a phone number from the owner of the small grocery store, and called him.

The phone was connected quickly.

"Which one?"

"Hello, I saw the rental information you left next to the shop."

"Yes, do you want to rent a shop?" the person on the other end of the phone asked.

"If you have this intention, how much is your shop rent?" Lin Cheng asked straight to the point.

"Rent, you have seen the shop, right? I am the landlord of this shop, there are no other fees, and it is a prosperous shop facing the street..." The other party talked for a while, and finally said: "If you rent it alone, it is 200 a day, but it has to be paid. The minimum rent is 3 days, depending on how long you rent, if you rent for a long time, we can give you a discount on the price.”

"How about it, rent it?" the other party asked.

"I'll think about it." After finishing speaking, Lin Cheng hung up the phone.

Hu Mao on the side calculated: "200 a day, and renting a shop that sells off goods for three days is 600, which is not expensive."

— actually, cheaper than that.

Lin Cheng thought to himself.

Such clearance merchants will choose stores that have not been rented out or are in the transition period when renting stores, and then play side-by-side. After renting the shop according to the minimum period, even if the time exceeds the agreed number of days, as long as the landlord does not find a new person to live in the shop and does not come to urge them, they can put it on for a few more days until the landlord takes back the shop or the business because of the same The source of customers in one place decreases and has to be changed to the next place.

"Long-term rental may lower the price." Lin Cheng said.

There are more than half of the old shops on this street, and such shops usually don’t change places easily, and if the newly opened shops can’t innovate in the things they sell and don’t have their own characteristics, it will be difficult to maintain long-term operation on this street , This is also the reason why these stores have been changing stores and can only be rented temporarily.

Seeing Hu Mao's puzzled expression, Lin Cheng analyzed again: "Temporary short-term rental generally does not make much money. If it is not for long-term rental, the landlord should not bother to choose short-term rental, so let's talk about the contract." When it’s time, you can try to negotiate a lower price.”

This is one of the reasons why Lin Cheng took a fancy to this shop.

Of course, there is another consideration that Lin Cheng didn't tell Hu Mao for the time being - the small appliance store next door to this store is about to close down.

Judging from the details of that store, it should have been open for about four or five years. The business of such stores is mediocre, but relatively stable. Generally speaking, the boss is not very good at dealing with the products displayed in the store.

But when communicating with the owner of the small food store just now, Lin Cheng noticed that the owner of the small appliance store wiped the small electrical appliances displayed on the shelves very clean, and even when the shelves were full of products, he was still cleaning the small electrical appliances in the warehouse. Take out other products and fill the shelves.

There is a possibility: the boss does not intend to do this business any more, and intends to sell as many existing products as possible, and may close the store when the annual lease contract expires.

At that time, when the store of Hu Mao's family has stabilized, it is just in time to rent the store next door to expand the store.

—

The two called the shop owner again.

However, this time it was Hu Mao who used his mobile phone to call the other party.

After the landlord received the call, he was a little excited when he heard that he planned to rent for a long time. Dang even put down other things and rushed to the shop in person to have an interview with Lin Cheng and the others.

Several people made an appointment to meet at a noodle restaurant on the street.

"Are you going to rent for a long time?" the landlord asked.

"Yes, we rent this shop for catering." Hu Mao said.

The landlord nodded, and said again: "I rented this shop to others to open a noodle shop before, and the water and electricity are connected in it. If you want to do it, you can do a little repair."

"My shop is originally rented for 200 yuan a day. If you want to rent it for a long time, I can give you a little bit cheaper, 5300 a month, starting from half a year, deposit and pay. What do you think?"

After all, before Lin Cheng and Hu Mao could open their mouths, the landlord added another sentence: "This price is already very cheap for you. If you don't believe me, you can go to other shops to inquire. The dumpling restaurant next door is cheaper than my shop." It’s only 2 square meters bigger, and it’s been rising to 5,500 a month since last year.”

Lin Cheng and Hu Mao did some research before the landlord arrived: on this street, apart from the shop owner's own shop, the monthly rent of other shops usually ranges from 4,000 to 6,800.

"We can sign a longer lease term with you, but in terms of price, I hope it can be lower." Lin Cheng said.

"This..." The landlord's eyes moved slightly, he lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then looked at Lin Cheng again: "How long do you want to rent?"

"Guaranteed for 5 years." Lin Cheng said.

As soon as these words came out, the landlord's expression became a little surprised: "So long?"

After being surprised, the landlord looked at Lin Cheng with some uncertainty, and said, "I'm not sure if you can really rent for five years. Five years is not much different to me, and it might be better to sign a contract year after year than to rent for five years at a time."

【Why do you say that? 】In the live broadcast room, someone asked puzzledly.

Soon someone else answered the question:

[Because prices are rising. 】

[That's right, if you just sign the contract, if it is signed every year, then the landlord can raise the price every year. If it is signed for several years at one time, the landlord will not be able to increase the price. Of course, if you want to earn more by signing year after year, there is a premise that the store can be rented out every year, and the tenant must accept the increased price. 】

…

Of course, Lin Cheng also thought of this.

"If you are considering the issue of rental income in the next few years, we can agree in the contract that the amount at the time of signing the contract shall prevail. In the future, the rent may be negotiated at no more than 2% of the signed amount every year. "

[Can it still be like this? 】

[Theoretically speaking, there seems to be nothing wrong with it. 】

[It was agreed in advance, and it seems reasonable to raise a little bit every year. 】

[I don't know if it's reasonable or not, but I feel like the landlord has been persuaded, haha. 】

…

At this time, the landlord was really moved: he was not sure how the rent in this area would increase in the future, but it was better to agree on a price increase like this than to rent a few shops at the same price for more than ten years.

And it saves you the hassle of bargaining.

Thinking about it this way, the landlord feels that he is not losing money.

only…

"It's not impossible to sign like this, but I will charge more for the deposit, two deposits pay one." The landlord said.

"About the deposit is also the second question I want to talk about." After Lin Cheng finished speaking, he continued: "The deposit can be set according to what you said, but we will not pay it in one go."

"What's the meaning?"

"What I mean is that after the formal signing of the contract, in the first half of the year, from the first to the sixth month, 20% of the store's book income will be credited as a deposit every month."

"You can also understand this as an investment. The deposit is about 10,000. If the income of our store is 8,000+ per month, then the part that exceeds the deposit for 6 months will be your investment income. .”

"What if you still can't earn 8,000?" the landlord asked.

"According to the agreement, if the amount recorded in half a year does not reach the agreed amount, then continue to draw from the monthly income until it reaches the agreed amount. You will still not lose money in this way." Lin Cheng replied .

However, Lin Cheng's words aroused the confusion of everyone in the live broadcast room.

[It feels so troublesome, so why does Lin Cheng do it? 】

[Yes, I didn't quite understand the meaning of Lin Cheng's actions. 】

[I seem to understand. 】

[I also seem to have guessed the reason. 】

【what reason? 】

[The reason is that there is no money! Hahaha. 】

[The reason is the money of Hu Mao's family, plus Lin Cheng and Momo have earned too little in the past few days, if they paid a two-month deposit at one time, it would not be enough to open the store. 】

[Hahaha, that's it, it's so funny, and a bit sad, the deposit is paid in installments! 】

【Lin Cheng: (on the surface) look at my operation; (actually) I have no money. 】

[So speaking so brilliantly, Lin Cheng just wanted to fool the landlord into agreeing to install the installment. 】

[What nonsense are you talking about? 】

[That is, Lin Cheng doesn't want to lose face? 】

…

here.

The landlord pondered for a while before he understood what Lin Cheng said: This is an investment that does not lose money at all, and maybe earn a little bit.

The landlord's eyes on Lin Cheng moved slightly, but he was still worried.

"What you said is quite good, but who knows how to do business? What if you quit after two or three months? Where can I find someone?"

"If you don't do it for a long time, the decoration and facilities invested in the store in the early stage are basically new, and you won't lose money if you dispose of them."

What Lin Cheng said hit the point, and immediately dispelled the landlord's last worry.

Finally, the landlord nodded.

After some haggling, finally, Lin Cheng signed a lease contract with the landlord at a price of 4600 a month.

At this time, the live broadcast room has been swiped by bullet screens:

[Lin Cheng's wave, I'm convinced. 】

[Learned. 】

[I also learned it, but I never expected that one day I would learn to open a shop in a variety show live broadcast. 】

[I don't know if it's right, but I was fooled into it anyway. 】

[Is this cheating? No, this is the book on getting rich. 】

…

[But why choose long-term rental? Isn't there so much to rent every year? ] Someone raised a question.

At the same time, after signing the contract with the landlord, Hu Mao, who got the store key from landlord f, also asked the same question.

[This is easy to understand. Long-term leases are relatively more stable. I feel that the business that Lin Cheng let Hu Mao’s family do can’t lose money, and after the show is broadcast, the business may be very good. One-time signing for five years, To save the landlord from seeing the business is good, the price will rise and the rent will rise sharply. 】

[Moreover, 4500 a month, based on 2%, will only increase by 90 yuan in the next year, which is actually not much compared to the increase. 】

[For the landlord, it is also good to be able to rent out stably, so that neither side should suffer. 】

…

What the audience said was just one of the reasons.

"Long-term store lease contracts are conducive to applying for loans."

"In addition," Lin Cheng said after a pause, "No accident, the old houses in this area may be demolished in about 3 to 4 years."

This is the news that Lin Chenglai accidentally learned from a company that has business cooperation with the Lin family when he was learning about this area.

Therefore, Lin Cheng specifically emphasized the breach of contract by Party A in the contract.

Once the house is demolished, the landlord must pay Hu Mao's family corresponding compensation while receiving a sum of demolition funds.

"At that time, you can relocate the store to the store outside the newly built community on the opposite side. The compensation should be more than enough to pay the transfer fee of the store on the opposite side."

[Fuck? I thought of it all! 】

[Lin Cheng thinks too far. 】

[Although there is a little suspicion of 'cheating', but let me know that this place is going to be demolished, I can't think of what Lin Cheng is thinking about. 】

[I finally know why I can't do anything. 】

[I also know, I am probably only one Lin Cheng's brain away from success...]
