The richest man starts from a street stall

Chapter 120 Expensive Shops

Chen Shi asked salesman Huo Ming to sit at his desk.

He also asked Ren Xiaozhuang to pour him a glass of hot water. The two of them would probably chat for a long time.

After Chen Shi asked him about his recent work, he got straight to the point: "Mr. Huo, I've been working hard recently. I came here because I have a very important matter that I want to assign to you."

Chen Shi asked him to pay attention to the business of the shop before, but he didn't know how it was going.

He just mentioned it casually before, but now that the next business plan has been determined, he should let him investigate it in depth.

Huo Ming said respectfully: "Boss, the work is not hard, it's all the job, please tell me."

He held a notebook in his hand, but he didn't drink the water on the table.

The boss treats him well, the salary is high, the benefits are good, the boss has a good temper, at least he hasn't lost his temper in front of them.

He is only eight or nine years younger than himself, but his character is very stable.

At the last sales exhibition, everyone in the company was not optimistic and felt that they were losing money.

But in the end, no one expected that the exhibition would be so popular that it was life-threatening and unbelievable. The company would make a lot of money, and the employees would also benefit.

Therefore, in his eyes, the boss is a very shrewd and capable businessman who turns corruption into magic.

Other businessmen cannot see the business, but he can stand out from the seemingly ordinary small commodities and play brilliantly.

Take the company's small commodity store, there are shops selling small commodities in the surrounding area, and there is no business for similar products.

No matter what the company sells, it will be difficult for others to sell the same type of products.

Shocking and domineering!
If it is just a store selling the same small commodities, it can really be closed.

If we buy more other products, other stores may not be able to survive.

Fortunately, there are currently no malicious conflicts with competing stores.

Chen Shi also asked those strong boys, a group of more than a dozen people, to sneak around his shop intentionally or unintentionally, move goods, and show their strength by the way.

Once a week, the time is not long, more than ten minutes.

At first, everyone in the company didn't understand, and neither did the male students, they just asked them to move the goods.

Huo Ming is a shrewd person, and at first he didn't understand what the boss was doing, but after seeing the owners of other nearby small commodity stores always coming to observe, he finally understood the boss' intentions.

Not afraid of thieves stealing, but afraid of thieves thinking.

It means that those colleagues don't even dare to think of causing trouble.

Chen Shi saw him nodding, very serious, he was very satisfied, and reminded: "I let you know about the shopping malls and stores in the provincial capital, but now, I just want you to really investigate deeply."

"Our next step is to rent a shop in a shopping mall or a pedestrian street store to sell clothes!"

"You are also a local. How do you know the business circle of the provincial capital? Those shopping malls, department stores, and pedestrian streets."

After listening to the boss's words, Huo Ming pondered for a while, thought about the language structure, and said, "Boss, according to what I'm familiar with, plus the recent investigation, I'm more familiar with it."

"Such as Chunxi Road, Sino-Ocean Taikoo Li, Global Center, CapitaLand, Yida Plaza in Jinniudian, Joy City, Intime City, Raffles Vientiane City, Suning Plaza City Outlets, Fox, People's Shopping Center, Wangfu Well, Pacific, Ito, Moore Parkson Tianfu Plaza store, etc.

These can be regarded as business districts with a relatively large flow of people, and they are very popular. "

Chen Shi nodded. He knew some shopping malls, but he didn't know some places.

Unexpectedly, Huo Ming knew a lot, so he seemed to have put in some effort and asked: "Where do you think it is the most popular?"

Huo Ming said without hesitation: "It should be Chunxi Road, but other places are also good. Without specific comparisons and data, it is hard to say."

Chen Shi nodded and said, "Well, that's what you said. Chunxi Road developed early and is considered an old street. It is famous."

Most people think that the most famous business district in the provincial capital is Chunxi Road, even in the whole country, it is quite famous.

The biggest feature of Chunxi Road is the collection of various specialty stores of many brands, as well as numerous Chinese time-honored shopping malls. It is a favorite shopping place for foreign tourists and local white-collar workers.

There are also large shopping malls and hotels in the business district.

Chen Shi asked again: "How are the shops there?
I think we should have them in the first batch of shops. The first shot must be fired. "

“Boss, do we have to rent a popular shop?
There must be very few vacant shops, and the transfer fee is very high. The transfer fee for a prosperous shop of more than ten square meters can range from tens of thousands to more than [-]. If the area is large, the transfer fee will cost tens of millions. "

Huo Ming didn't understand why the boss had to play such a big game.

If a store is bought, the rent plus other things, depending on his posture, there is no one or two million that can't be played.

Asking him to negotiate would definitely make him feel a bit weak.

After hearing Huo Ming's words, Chen Shi felt a little worried.

If you want someone else's prosperous shop, they will definitely kill him.

Otherwise, they are still making money. Although they earn less, they don’t give money, so why transfer the store to you.

No money, why?
Because most of the contracts signed with the landlord have a deposit. If the rent is withdrawn, the tenant will not get the deposit. The deposit is as little as one month and as much as two months.

The monthly rent for the shops there, which are more than ten square meters, is [-] yuan, or as much as [-] yuan.

In addition to the decoration fee, you can't get it back after you cancel the lease. If you can't make much money, you want to marry the next tenant and make some money by the way.

If it was really a prosperous shop, they would have a profit of hundreds of thousands a year, and they would not sublet it even if they gave the other party several hundred thousand yuan.

People are originally a hen that lays golden eggs every day, but you want to buy chicken from a hen at ordinary prices.

What an international joke!
In short, the only shops that can be rented are those that are losing business, or those that are located in a deviated position.

A good location and good business may not necessarily make you profitable. After all, the rent for a shop in a good location is ridiculously high.

In some locations, the monthly rent can reach 3 to [-] yuan for a pavement of more than ten square meters!
But the monthly gross profit can be [-] to [-]. Can it be said that the business is not good, but after paying the rent, it is a loss.

Of course, there are also cases where there is no transfer fee.

However, the rent will be higher, because the original tenant is losing money and cannot bear the high rent. Stop the loss early, and would rather not have a deposit but return the lease. The waiting time is too long, and no one will take over.

No one took over, it was because the rent demanded by the landlord was too high, not because the booth was not good, there must be many businessmen who are interested in this kind of booth.

Chen Shi thought for a while, and said, "Look for it first. In that kind of business district, the transfer fee cannot be avoided. It's okay if the location is a bit off, and the rent is high, but the area must be large, at least 250 square meters. It’s passable.”

Huo Ming understood, nodding while recording, the company's shop business is extremely hot, if the space is too narrow, the turnover rate will not be very high.

But it is difficult to find a shop with an area of ​​250 square meters, and it is even more difficult to sublet it.

However, he had to overcome these difficulties.

If he doesn't look for it, let the boss look for it.

What a joke.

If so, he is not far from being laid off.
