The Sun Never Sets In Spain

Two days have passed since the Flying Witch was defeated. Today is the day when Alfonso and the mutual aid president have agreed to discuss business.

"Hey, let's go, we will talk about business in the afternoon. You said that you have a good position, so you have to take me to see it!" Alfonso reluctantly took four words of standing awkwardly.

"You are so mad at me. Yesterday you and Edward ran to play without me!" Nasi said angrily. He felt betrayed by two friends.

"I am mainly afraid that you will be discovered by your mother and there will be no good fruits to eat.

Besides, I asked for time off for the two of us today. If we finish our work earlier, we can go to play earlier. "Alfonso can only coax.

I went to school four days a day, went out to play after school, and didn't touch government affairs. Now I really feel like an ordinary child.

"Huh." Although still unhappy, Take Four followed.

Then Alfonso knew that Nasi hadn't thought about where the store should be opened. Even though he lived here for many years, he didn't know where to open the supermarket.

After calming down, the two of them wandered back and forth along the Champs Elysées.

Be sure to fix the position before the afternoon meeting.

…

The Champs Elysées is not very long, it is more than two kilometers, part of which is close to the palace and it is not allowed to open shops.

The merchants on the street near the palace and residential areas mainly sell some luxury goods and consumer goods.

Most food and beverages are bakeries and fruit shops, concentrated on the side close to the Arc de Triomphe.

It's not that businesses don't want to open in residential areas. It is that nobles have chefs in every household, and they are not allowed to open too close to shops that carry oily fumes and need to use horse-drawn carts to update raw materials.

Alfonso's plan is to open near the Arc de Triomphe, because the supermarket must have a large amount of merchandise updates, and opening too close can easily attract complaints from nobles.

On the other hand, the Arc de Triomphe is more convenient and well-known. The French may not know the Elysee Palace, but they certainly know the Arc de Triomphe.

Of the 10 tourists who came to Paris, 9 would go here to stroll around. Even a few years later, even the Prussian army would come here to visit, and the supermarket's popularity would not immediately rise.

Of course, the supermarket may have been in ruins at the time of the Prussian parade in Paris, but this is not important.

As long as the items are distributed in advance, even if they are bombed into ruins, they will lose some decoration money. Moreover, the supermarket is located in the center of Paris, and the possibility of being bombed is minimal.

"Just here." Nasi and Alfonso stopped at a building on the right side of the Arc de Triomphe, less than 300 meters away.

Take four explained: "The area where this building is located is a triangular area.

On the back of other buildings on the Champs-Elysées is another building on another avenue.

As the apex of the triangle, it is another street on the back, which is easy to get in and out.

In addition, the right to use half of the shops in this building belongs to Viscount Henry. He has recently fallen into a divorce dispute with his wife. He should be in need of money, and the price can be suppressed.

Of course, this place was originally the most expensive place for rent in the Champs Elysées. "

"Yeah..." Alfonso thought this place was really good and the traffic was convenient.

You must know that horse-riding and passenger carriages are not allowed on the Champs Elysées, and carriages are only allowed to transport goods at night and in the early morning.

If the supermarket is located in the middle of the city, people will have to walk a few steps, and it will be inconvenient for them to transport large items back.

"Just here, we will go to the promotion association for a meal."

Because of the lack of talents for business negotiations, and nobles like them can't go off in person, they have a lack of demeanor.

So he talked to Edward when he went to see the horse racing with Edward yesterday, and entrusted him to arrange an old business man who has been in the mall to help.

Not surprisingly, the other party is now at the promotion meeting.

After eating, the two walked to the promotion association located in the nearby street.

This is because the land price of the Champs Elysees is too expensive, and the government is reluctant to let them occupy a piece of it for office use.

The Promotion Association is a two-story square building with a large floor area. After all, it often accommodates many businessmen for meetings.

Near the door, a fat, bald middle-aged man was standing there, taking out his pocket watch from time to time to take a look. It was obvious that he was in a state of anxiety, but his face was still calm and calm.

"His Royal Highness, Your Highness Alfonso." Seeing them coming, the fat man hurriedly greeted him, and he was relieved.

"Are you the one appointed by Edward?" Alfonso looked at the fat man's vicissitudes of life and sparse hair, thinking it was a talent.

"Yes, His Highness Edward asked me to come. My name is Zana Sanu and I am a Swiss.

They are having a meeting. Your Majesty, let's confirm the lease of the shop first. "

Speaking of Zana, he pulled out a stack of documents from his purse:

"This was done overnight after I received the news in the middle of the night last night. There are data on subletting and renting expenses in recent years.

Then there are several alternative locations, as well as the list of owners behind these shops, all I found are in them. "

He seemed very impatient. After all, this matter involved two crown princes. If he could be appreciated, he might be able to earn a hereditary title, which would be a class leap.

Alfonso took the document and couldn't help but glanced up at him.

Although the other party said that these data promotion committees are all included-the lease data is nominally confidential, but for them, they can see it.

But everyone will appreciate people who work harder, especially after Alfonso has seen too many dudes in horse racing in the past two days.

At this time, the staff also sent their documents, and compared the two, and found that what Zana gave was not bad at all.

After hearing about Alfonso’s location, Zana said:

"Viscount Henry opened several perfume shops and leather bag shops. The decoration is relatively luxurious, and the subletting fee should be increased accordingly.

The decoration of several other shops is not bad either. The subletting fee is about 350,000 francs. After all, the profitability of a dozen shops on the three-story building is good, and additional compensation is required.

There is still half a year's rent, 150,000 francs. The deposit has to be paid for one quarter, 75,000 francs. "

Alfonso calculated it in his heart, and said it was quite a lot. This time Isabella in Paris gave him a total of 100,000 pounds, which is more than 20,000.

Not to mention the tax payment, the licensing and decoration in the later period, the cost of this is only £40,000 starting.

Supermarkets have to contact supply channels and publicity, which is another large sum of money. In any case, the initial investment for supermarkets to be set up is 50,000 pounds.

But when he thought that the money could not buy Nasi and Edward's three horses, he felt that it was not a lot...

"Okay, I authorize it to you, you can talk about it, and you will be rewarded for your work." Alfonso said lightly.

Zana talked but stopped. He didn't want a reward, he just wanted to work under Alfonso.

He analyzed it carefully last night and felt that this supermarket was very promising. If he could be allowed to run it, he would be confident that his name would ring through the entire Parisian business community.

The only way is to follow Alfonso. To open a large supermarket in the 19th century, he did not have the financial resources he needed.

It's useless to talk more about it. Only when things are done can we make requests. Thinking of this, he responded: "Make sure to get things done!"
