Chapter 954 Buy the shop for Liu Yao

"Sister-in-law is here!"

No matter what Li Qian's attitude towards him was, Su Mingzhe's attitude was pretty good.

Li Qian has a bad attitude towards Su Mingzhe because she thinks that the reason why her ex-husband turned bad was because of Su Mingzhe and his group of bad friends.

Plus, Su Mingzhe and Liu Yao are not in a serious relationship, so Li Qian dislikes him.

Now, Su Mingzhe greeted her with a smile and called her "sister-in-law" again. For a moment, Li Qian was too embarrassed to continue to show a bad face.

After Su Mingzhe poured tea for Li Qian, Li Qian took out a new contract and slapped it on the table:
"Since you are here, take a look at this new lease contract! The monthly rent signed three years ago was 15,000 yuan, and you know what happened. Now that Lao Zhang and I are divorced, the contract you signed with Lao Zhang is definitely no longer valid. If you want to continue renting, the rent will be the same as the surrounding shops, 20,000 yuan per month!"

The 'Lao Zhang' that Li Qian mentioned is her ex-husband.

The two had just obtained their divorce certificate when Su Mingzhe traveled through time.

As a close friend in the business world, Su Mingzhe was called over by several friends and persuaded the two of them.

Unfortunately, both of them were determined to divorce.

In the end, the two dealt with their marital property with the witness of a lawyer and broke up "peacefully".

"Sister-in-law, don't worry about the lease contract!"

Su Mingzhe listened to Li Qian's speech, took a sip of tea, then smiled and said:
"Sister-in-law, I want to ask, is your shop for sale? I want to buy it!"

The prices of shops are different from those of commercial housing.

The monthly rent for a commercial housing unit may be only one or two thousand yuan, but the selling price may be as high as one million yuan.

The monthly rent of a shop may be 10,000 or 20,000 yuan, but the selling price is only around 2 to 3 million yuan.

This is because, depending on the location, rent, and traffic conditions, the selling price of a general shop is twelve to eighteen times the rent.

Although Wutong Lane is in the city, it is surrounded by old "cultural alleys" and the municipal government does not allow demolition.

Moreover, this place is relatively remote and there are not many tourists, so it is very difficult to rent a place, let alone buy and sell it.

Li Qian thought for a while and made a gesture:
"The minimum is 2.6 million, excluding tax!"

"Row!"

Su Mingzhe immediately agreed:
"Sister-in-law, when are you free these two days? Let's go to the house!"

Su Mingzhe agreed so decisively and quickly that Li Qian felt like she had lost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

However, the words have been spoken, and Li Qian is not about to regret it.

The two agreed on a time, and Li Qian immediately got up and left.

She doesn't like to be involved with scumbags and mistresses.

After seeing Li Qian off, Su Mingzhe originally wanted to take Liu Yao home to rest, but she insisted on watching the store.

"This alley is so congested, and there's not much business. Why don't you go home and rest for a couple of days? Once you've recovered, you won't have any time to waste! This is what they call 'sharpening the knife is not as effective as chopping wood'!"

Su Mingzhe coaxed and persuaded Liu Yao, and took her to the Bauhinia community behind the photo studio.

Bauhinia Community is a high-end community built in the 1990s.

After more than 20 years, the high-end residential area of ​​​​then is no longer high-end.

Like the elevator that was highly respected in the past, it has broken down countless times in the past twenty years.

After returning home, as soon as he entered the door, Su Mingzhe suddenly picked up Liu Yao and strode towards the bedroom.

after an hour.

"Brother, let's go take a shower!"

"I'll release the water!"

The original body was rude to Wu Xu but gentle enough to Liu Yao.

Su Mingzhe followed his original habit and took a hot bath in the bathroom holding Liu Yao.

Before I knew it, it was already past four o'clock.

After the break, Su Mingzhe got up, got dressed, and prepared to leave.

Liu Yao immediately showed reluctance:

"Brother, can't you stay today?" "I'll come back tomorrow."

Su Mingzhe doesn't like to break appointments.

He had already made an appointment with Wu Xu at noon to pick her up after get off work and have dinner together outside in the evening.

Seeing that the man was really going to leave, Liu Yao couldn't persuade him anymore, so she had to ask:
"Should I wait for you at home or in the store tomorrow?"

"It's up to you. I'll come over tomorrow morning after I finish my work at the company."

Su Mingzhe and Liu Yao made an agreement, kissed each other, and then left.

It takes at least half an hour to drive from the city to the High-tech Zone.

If you encounter a traffic jam, you may spend an hour on the road.

Fortunately, Su Mingzhe left early and did not encounter the evening rush hour, and arrived back to the High-tech Zone before five o'clock.

At half past five, after picking up Wu Xu, the two went to a Jiangnan Mansion near Baihuayuan Community for dinner.

The food at this restaurant is quite good, and when Wu Xu is alone at home, he often orders takeout from them.

The two ordered a few dishes and chatted about various gossips while eating.

After dinner, Su Mingzhe held Wu Xu's hand and walked to a nearby small square. They danced a slow three-step dance to the accompaniment of the aunties' music.

After dancing, the two continued strolling on the busy street.

This place is close to the university town and there are a lot of young men and women here.

Su Mingzhe looked around and could occasionally find one or two "white skin, beautiful faces and long legs".

Wu Xu had long turned a blind eye to her man's lust.

Just when Su Mingzhe and Wu Xu were shopping.

Liu Yao, who had slept for the whole afternoon, woke up feeling full of energy. He simply called a few friends and made arrangements to meet with them to exchange the foreign debt.

All of Liu Yao's friends are local "rich ladies" whom she met after she opened her photo studio.

Although we don't know each other's ins and outs, most of us know a little bit of the details.

Soon, everyone met at a nearby restaurant.

Liu Yao settled the accounts with several people one by one, and gave them an interest of 1% per annum.

The foreign debt of more than 300,000 yuan means the interest is more than 30,000 yuan.

After settling the bill, they had a midnight snack and then dispersed.

the next day.

People are happy when they are happy.

After getting up and washing up early in the morning, Liu Yao looked at herself in the mirror. Her skin was fair and rosy, and moist and shiny.

She had paid off all her foreign debts last night and called several employees who had stopped working, inviting them to come back to work.

After breakfast, seeing that it was still early, Liu Yao cleaned the house again. Before going out, she thought for a moment, took a box of small umbrellas from the bedside table, and put it in her purse.

At 7:30, the photo studio finally opened, which was "really slow".

Several employees who lived nearby came one after another.

Although they are called employees, there is actually only one female photographer who is permanent, and the other five can only be considered "part-time".

Of course, even if it was part-time work, Liu Yao's remuneration for them was not low. The basic monthly salary was fifteen hundred yuan, plus commissions and so on, the salary level was much higher than that of similar photo studios nearby.

It is precisely because the employees are paid too high a salary that the photo studio's profit level is very low. Even in the peak season, the monthly profit does not exceed 50,000 yuan.

In normal seasons, the company can only barely maintain a break-even state.

Liu Yao waited until everyone was gathered, and then paid out the wages owed to everyone, and also gave them an additional half month's salary as a 'bonus'.

All the employees were cheered up when they saw their salaries and bonuses arrive.

Liu Yao waited until everyone calmed down, then clapped his hands, signaling everyone to be quiet, and then he spoke:

"I have another piece of good news for you all. I have already negotiated with the landlord about the purchase of this shop. You no longer have to worry about the risk of the photo studio closing down..."
