Rebirth 90: Koi Fufu Wife Has Space

Chapter 94 Rent a store

Sure enough, by the end of July, the financial crisis began to gradually approach the inland, and for a while, everyone was in danger.

It's obvious that even Li Xu's small business has been affected.

Now, after a whole day, I can earn thirty or forty yuan, not even half of what I did before.

Business was sluggish, so Li Xu gave up most of his thoughts on renting a front room.

No matter how Ji Yuanyuan tried to persuade her, she remained unmoved.

Ji Yuanyuan can also understand. After all, their family is not a rich family. Even if the house prices have dropped now, it still costs ten to twenty thousand yuan to buy a first-floor apartment.

A slightly larger one is estimated to cost 30,000 to 40,000, or even 50,000 to 60,000.

Li Xu doesn't have that much money in his hands right now. Even if he does, what if he loses the money he bought for the front house?

Unlike Ji Yuanyuan, Li Xu knew that house prices would definitely rise in the future, so naturally he did not dare to take risks.

Ji Yuanyuan is not in a hurry, since housing prices will continue to fall in the past few years.

If you buy it later, you will spend less money. However, Ji Yuanyuan feels that if you buy early and enjoy it early, it is not so important to have more money and less money.

The money will be earned sooner or later.

Although Li Xu didn't want to buy, under Ji Yuanyuan's persuasion, he still planned to rent a front room for half a year to give it a try.

If that doesn't work, go back to the vegetable market. Anyway, even if you lose money, you won't lose much.

Just when Li Xu was looking for a suitable concierge, Qin Mucheng's letter and gifts came from City B again.

This time Qin Mucheng sent a lot of things, and they were still some miscellaneous things.

They are all things that Qin Mucheng sees interesting and wants to share with Ji Yuanyuan.

In this letter, in addition to Qin Mucheng's daily sharing, there was also bad news.

This summer vacation, Qin Mucheng can't come over to play.

There are two reasons. One is because Qin Haowen has been very busy recently and comes back very late every day. Qin Mucheng complained in his heart that Qin Haowen has not had dinner with him for almost a month.

You don’t need to think about it to know that it must be affected by the financial crisis. Qin Haowen is busy recovering losses!

The second reason is that Qin Junshan is not in good health. He said that he has been coughing since last month and is out of breath whenever he walks.

Seeing this news, Ji Yuanyuan's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that Mr. Qin’s body is dying?

Although she didn't know what year Mr. Qin passed away in his previous life, she vaguely heard Qin Mucheng say that he died when he was very young.

Maybe it will be in the past two years!

Looking at this letter, Ji Yuanyuan fell into deep thought.

If Mr. Qin were by her side and she could be nourished by the spiritual spring water, maybe the old man's health would be better.

But now that we were thousands of miles apart, she was helpless and couldn't really help.

Perhaps, should she find a way to get the old man to come over? Or go there by herself?

She was still so young, she could only follow wherever Li Xu went.

Li Xu's business and the Li family's greenhouse have just started, so it is naturally impossible for Li Xu to leave S city.

Then let Mr. Qin come to S City?

What good reason can I find?

Ji Yuanyuan lay in front of his desk and thought for a whole day, but he couldn't think of a reason. There was a lot of waste paper on the floor.

Li Xu came back from outside after a busy day. When he saw Ji Yuanyuan's appearance, he laughed and said, "What's the matter? Is it so difficult to write a letter to your brother Mu Cheng?"

I've wasted so many pieces of paper and still haven't come up with any satisfactory writing?

Ji Yuanyuan scratched his head with the tip of his pen, a look of distress on his face: "I have a lot to say, I don't know how to say it..."

Even if he says it, it’s not certain whether the Qin family can believe it!

Li Xu laughed when he heard this: "In that case, when our house has a telephone installed, you can call Brother Mu Cheng directly and say whatever you want."

Ji Yuanyuan turned around and looked at Li Xu with a surprised look on his face: "Are we going to install a phone in our house?"

A phone, from the installation fee to the monthly rent and phone bills, is not a small sum of money.

That's something only wealthy people can afford to install. When did her mother become so generous?

"Today your Uncle Zhang and I selected a store, negotiated the price, and paid the deposit. Mom plans to install the phone in the store, and I can earn some pocket money by then!"

So that’s it!

Ji Yuanyuan gave Li Xu a thumbs up.

The economy was in recession, and the shop owner had a hard time finding someone to rent the shop, and the price was very low.

For a store of more than 50 square meters, the monthly rent is only 100 yuan.

I signed a one-year contract temporarily, and the rent was paid in one lump sum, plus a one-month deposit.

The total is one thousand three hundred yuan.

On the day she signed the contract, Ji Yuanyuan went to see the store. She was quite satisfied.

In 1997, the concept of public housing had not yet emerged, and the more than 50 square meters in the contract was the actual area inside the apartment.

The entire store is a rectangle of seven meters by seven and a half meters, and the space is divided into three parts.

As soon as you enter the door, you will see a large passage room that is seven meters by six meters. Further inside, on the left is a small bathroom of about 1.5 bungalow. The inside is very small, with only a squatting pit and a faucet. There is a long corridor on the right.

Nothing.

Ji Yuanyuan stood inside the store and made a preliminary estimate. At least three rows of shelves could be placed in the passage outside.

The corridor inside can be used as a warehouse to store some vegetables, or as a kitchen.

The walls of the front room have been painted, so there is no need to renovate. All he needs to do is buy a few rows of shelves and a table to put at the door for Li Xu to collect money.

The shelves were simple, so Zhang Kun took Li Xu to the second-hand market and bought six of them. The quality looked good, and the total cost was less than 100 yuan.

Place one on each of the four walls, and two more rows in the middle.

The table was also bought from a second-hand market, it cost less than thirty yuan, and the seller also gave me a chair.

After everything was installed, Li Xu went to find someone to put a phone on the table at the door.

It was already after five o'clock in the afternoon when the phone was installed.

Ji Yuanyuan couldn't wait to dial the Qin family's phone number. Qin Mucheng had told her in the previous communication.

The phone rang three times, and a young voice answered the call: "Hello, this is the Qin family. Who are you looking for?"

Judging from the voice, it didn't belong to anyone from the Qin family. Ji Yuanyuan guessed that it might be the nanny of the Qin family.

"Hello, sister, I am Qin Mucheng's classmate. I am looking for Qin Mucheng."

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll call him." The woman said, and soon there was no movement.

Ji Yuanyuan waited for about a minute before a young voice came from the other end of the phone: "I am Qin Mucheng, who is my classmate?"

"Ahem, Classmate Qin, you can't even recognize my voice, right?" Ji Yuanyuan deliberately cleared his throat and spoke in a very rough voice.

I originally thought that Qin Mucheng would have to guess a few people before he could guess her.

But what Ji Yuanyuan didn't expect was...

"Yuanyuan, you are Yuanyuan, right?" Qin Mucheng's voice sounded particularly excited.

Ji Yuanyuan blinked his eyes, looking confused.

Is my own voice so easy to guess?
