rebirth from small pockets

Chapter 150 Of course choose a small shop

Chapter 150 Of course, choose a small shop

Some things cannot actually be understood in just one rebirth.

Such as the housing prices in Beijing!

In 1998, housing prices in Beijing were generally around 2,000 yuan per square meter.

It’s not impossible to buy it even for a little over a thousand people in a place a little further away!

Of course, housing prices will naturally be more expensive the further in, and the higher-end residential areas will naturally have higher prices.

There are properties priced at 4,000, 5,000 or even higher! But those are not representative!

Similarly, the prices of shops in Beijing at this time are far lower than Chen Li imagined, even much lower!

This is also the reason why Chen Li's previous offer was to let Deng Weimin rent a shop for him for three years instead of buying him a large shop.

In Chen Li's opinion, even in 1998, the prices of shops in Beijing should be very high.

But he completely ignored that it was only 1998, and the Fourth Ring Road in Yanjing City would not be connected for another two years, and the Weigong Village he proposed was on the West Third Ring Road in Yanjing City!

In other words, today's Weigong Village is not actually the city center of Yanjing.

In addition, Chen Li knew that this was a university town, and Weigong Village was close to Zhongguancun, so he subconsciously imagined that the prices of shops here were very high!

But in fact, this is not the case!

If asking Deng Weimin to buy a shop of more than 100 square meters for Chen Li is a bit excessive, then Deng Weimin can still afford a small shop of more than 30 square meters.

As an executive of Snow Beer, Deng Weimin's current salary can be considered to be ahead of most people in the country.

Therefore, Deng Weimin felt that since he was paying Chen Li, he might as well get it right in one go and pay Chen Li more satisfactorily.

Favor~! It is gradually accumulated through such things.

And the reality is exactly what Deng Weimin thought. After he proposed to give Chen Li a small store, Chen Li's mind instantly abandoned the 100-square-meter shop in front of him.

The reason is obvious. Renting is definitely not as cost-effective as buying!

To put it bluntly, Chen Li is confident that he can do something. Otherwise, some people may run a small business in a store for several years, and in the end the money earned may not be as fast as the value of the store itself.

Plus, what did Deng Weimin just say? That small shop is right between the University of Foreign Studies and the University of Science and Technology!

At that time, Chen Li wanted to say, "Fuck~!"

If it weren't for the wrong occasion, Chen Li would have immediately wanted to drag Deng Weimin to go to the landlord and buy the shop.

This store in Yanjing City is still on the Third Ring Road, and is located between two universities.

Chen Li doesn't even need to do any business at this location. He just rents out the shop and waits for the rent to rise and the value of the shop to appreciate.

If nothing else, wait for about ten years, then sell the shop or simply keep it and continue to collect rent, and then Chen Li can return to his hometown and become a rich man.

Of course, Chen Li would definitely not do this.

Although the small storefront of more than 30 square meters is a bit small, it is still my own property rights.

The worst thing is to give up dining in! Anyway, Chen Li has never thought about building a fast food restaurant similar to KFC McDonald's.

The main reason why he asked Huang Biao to study at Dix in the first place was to complete the task at that time.

But later, Chen Guofu asked his comrades to force Huang Biao into the newly opened Dicos in Nancheng, and then Chen Li began to have the idea of opening a fried chicken restaurant.

Yes fried chicken restaurant!

Fried some chicken legs, chicken wings, and sell some hamburgers, cola, etc.

In the late 1990s, this thing was simply profitable!

Because Western fast food like KFC, McDonald's, etc. are really too expensive.

You can see it simply by looking at the data.

KFC entered China in 1987, and McDonald's entered China in 1990!

As soon as these two foreign fast food restaurants entered China, the prices of food sold in their stores were far higher than people's living standards at that time.

For a long time, KFC and McDonald's were definitely luxury goods in the domestic fast food industry.

In his previous life, Chen Li ate KFC for the first time in 2004.

At that time, Chen Xue had just graduated from college and came to Yanjing to travel. At that time, Chen Li took Chen Xue to KFC for the first time.

Chen Li’s first impression of KFC at that time

The taste is indeed good, after all, fried food is indeed very fragrant. But the biggest problem is that it is expensive!

He couldn't remember what Chen Li ordered at that time. Anyway, he and Chen Xue spent more than 60 yuan in the end, but they were not full.

Later, after leaving KFC, Chen Li took Chen Xue out to have a bowl of wontons.

That was still 2004, and it's only 1998 now, but KFC's food prices are actually not much different from those in 2004.

In fact, since KFC and McDonald's entered the Chinese market, although the price of their food has increased, it is completely unequal compared with various raw materials and the rate of inflation.

It can be seen from this that how profitable were KFC and McDonald’s in the early days?

That is simply not making money, but robbing money.

So~! By "coincidence", Chen Li directly put his second pot of gold plan on a fast food restaurant.

He didn't think about punching KFC or kicking McDonald's. That was unrealistic.

To be precise, this will not be realistic for a long time.

Even though Chen Li has the advantage of rebirth plus system, KFC and McDonald's are not just freeloaders.

It’s not that Chen Li is reincarnated and can bring down others. He has been working in fast food for decades, and Chen Li is not reincarnated that can erase the difference.

But if Chen Li’s goal is just to make some money, then it would be very practical.

Okay~ Actually, the reason why Chen Li wanted to open such a fast food restaurant was just to make money.

Let's leave it to Dicos to defeat KFC and McDonald's!

Anyway, at this time, Dicos was competing against KFC and McDonald's, but soon Dicos would be outclassed by KFC and McDonald's. In the end, Dicos had to change its plan and focus its business on second- and third-tier cities and even small counties.

Chen Li's goal is simple: to use fast food restaurants to accumulate enough wealth in the short term, and then use this wealth to do things with great future prospects.

Don’t think that you can’t do big things with a small amount of money. In fact, you can do a lot of things with a small amount of money.

As long as the operation is good, Chen Li is confident that he can use this small fast food restaurant to earn profits that ordinary people can't imagine.

Of course, these words seem a bit "hypocritical". No matter how much you talk, it's better to actually do it.

Therefore, the top priority is that Chen Li must obtain the property rights of this small store.

"Brother Deng~!"

"Your two choices are meaningless!"

"Do you still have to choose? I will definitely choose the second one!"

"The shop of more than 100 square meters is really attractive, and there are many things to do. I even made relevant plans from the beginning."

"But...the rented shops are definitely not as fragrant as your own shops!"

"So. I choose a small shop!"

Chen Li poured himself a glass of beer. At this time, he couldn't care less about the inconsistency between eating hotpot mutton and beer.

"Brother Deng~ You are serious about this!"

"You know~ I am an honest person!"

"I won't be polite to you anymore~!"
