Chapter 162 Shock
After receiving the results of the market survey, Huo Guang was not in a hurry. Everyone was quite simple and sincere in the opinion column. The most concerned issue was how much rent to pay. After all, the shopping mall is a place where the wind and rain cannot blow. Unlike the public areas on the street, everyone has the awareness to pay rent, but they are afraid that it will be too expensive and they will not be able to afford it.

There are also many people who are not willing to follow Huo Guang. Most of them are used to setting up stalls on the street and obeying the old rules. Coupled with the negative propaganda of Wei Jiangwen and Luo Jin, they are timid and unwilling to move to take risks.In fact, no matter whether he supports his shopping mall or not, Huo Guang can still face it calmly, he has this confidence.

What is more gratifying is that two-thirds of the stall owners are willing to follow him. Apart from the title of county horse and the prestige of Changming Hou Mansion behind him, it is more because of Huo Guang's personal charm.

Although Wei Jiangwen tried his best to publicize how unreliable Huo Guang's behavior is, everyone knows that before Huo Guang's arrival, gangsters ran rampant on the street. Not only did they have to collect protection fees, but they often stole money. They were punched and kicked, but after the county horse came, the gangsters on the street not only stopped doing evil, but also helped them carry them every day, and even cleaned the streets. Compared with Wei Jiangwen's empty words, they were more willing to trust the county horse.

After checking the quantity and category that I am willing to follow him, I probably have some understanding in my heart. Although I can't completely fill the mall, there must be no problem with a good location.He believes that as long as the mall opens, it won't be long before it will be hard to find a shop here, and it may be possible to use the surrounding open space.

In the next few days, Huo Guang didn't do anything other than wander around the small building once in a while. He wandered back and forth in the mansion leisurely. Rong An couldn't sit still because of his leisure.

"Husband encountered some troubles and couldn't solve them. Do you need Rong An's help?" Rong An thought for a long time, but couldn't help walking to Huo Guang who was walking in the yard.

Huo Guang was in a state of mental relaxation when he suddenly heard Ron An's words and was stunned for a moment before replying, "Everything is going smoothly and there is no trouble. Princess, please rest assured."

Hearing these words, Rong An was slightly relieved, and pursed his lips.

Huo Guang thought for a while, maybe Rong An felt that he should be so busy that he didn't even have time to sleep for such a big business as a shopping mall. Now that he is so leisurely, it was too abnormal, so he was naturally a little worried, but Rong An was very busy, every night I was ready to go to bed, but I saw that the light in Rong An's room was still on.

"Princess, are you willing to go and see what the three-story building looks like now? It's time to relax, okay?" Huo Guang's suggestion made Rong An's eyes light up. It was really time for her to go out for a walk. She had just left When Chang'an came back, he was busy with official business. Although he didn't leave the house these days, he was still thinking about what his husband's shopping mall was like.

After hearing Huo Guang's words, Rong An agreed directly without any hesitation. She already had a rough outline in her heart, because Huo Guang's sketch clearly depicted the appearance of the shopping mall, which she had never seen before, but she was even more looking forward to it. .

This is also the first time that the two of them have left the house at the same time. Huo Guang goes out by himself, usually walking in a low-key manner.This time, because the princess needed to ride in a carriage, Huo Guang also rode out on Ta Xue.

Thinking it was one thing in my mind, but seeing it with my own eyes turned into another thing. When Rongan's carriage stopped at the three-story building planned by Huo Guang, it was no exaggeration to describe it as shocked.

The moment she stepped out to buy a car, she was stunned by the scene in front of her. The building, which was about to be renovated, was completely different from the sketches on the paper. It was more three-dimensional, more intuitive, and shocked her even more.

Rongan's voice trembled slightly, "When will it be completed?" She even couldn't wait to see what Huo Guang would transform the small building into after the completion. Would it shock her even more?
Huo Guang never felt that he was a business genius. He just moved what he knew to this world based on his feelings. The shopping mall will be put into use in a few days. These people were the first batch to support him. Huo Guang naturally put himself in their shoes and allocated the best position to them in advance.

Huo Guang sent a contract to each merchant, asking everyone to read carefully before signing. After all, it involves interests, and wrangling later will hurt peace.The contract mainly stipulates some details, and the order of the shopping mall must not be chaotic. After all, he has never opened a shopping mall before, and he has never even done a small business. It feels full-screen, crossing the river by feeling the stones and watching every step.

At this time, the common people are relatively simple, as long as selling things in the mall can make more money than selling at the street stalls, it’s all for a bite of food, not afraid of hardships, and less money. Huo Guang understands this better than anyone else. Working at sunrise and resting at sunset is just for life.

The manpower that can be used in Tianfu these days has basically been used. Although the smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, it is absolutely impossible not to publicize a new thing. He made a lot of leaflets at home and told Wang Yi to bring people. It is distributed in various streets of Wancheng, and it can be posted in a prominent place. The content of the advertisement is copied from the template of countless advertisements he has received. In addition to the opening time, there are also some attractive discounts and programs.

Huo Guang vacated two fronts at the entrance of the first floor of the shopping mall. He reserved these two places early on, just to invite two people.

Although Wancheng’s previous economy did not have a large itinerary and there were few shops facing the street, it was not completely absent. There were two very famous jewelry shops in Beiguan, one selling gold and silver jewelry, and the other specializing in jadeite. It is in a state of monopoly in Beiguan. It is said that their jewelry is supplied to the Houfu every year as a tribute to the imperial court. It is difficult for ordinary people to buy it, and they have no money to buy it.

Huo Guang is going to "invite" these two shops to the shopping mall. Of course, the joining of these two shops will not promise them much profit, let alone charge their rent. After all, ordinary people cannot afford it. Huo Guang mainly In order to improve the grade of his shopping mall, it is also good for other small owners who follow him to have a bottom of mind.

To deal with these two families, Huo Guang could only use his own identity, an identity they could not refuse - the county horse of the Marquis of Changming.

The princess happened to be by his side, and Huo Guang was going to put the matter of persuading the two companies to join the shopping mall on the agenda. He didn't want to call Rong An at first, because she was already very busy, and he didn't want to bother her with his own affairs, but after thinking about it, he still felt that it would bring trouble. This matter will become much easier when Rong'an is together.
