Rebirth of the Nine-Three Era

Yin Yuan discussed with Lao Huang the price of commercial street suites and first-floor shops.

"The house price in Jiangming is 960 yuan/square meter, and the shop price is 2100 yuan/square meter. It should be similar here in Xiangshan, right?"

"The Xiangshan area is generally similar, but it depends on the location. For example, the commercial street area is a bit more expensive than other places, 1050 yuan/square meter, and the shop floor is 2200 yuan/square meter."

Huang Guanyuan believes that the selling price should be determined based on nearby housing prices.

“Then let’s book according to this price, which is 1050 yuan/square meter for a suite and 2200 yuan/square meter for a shop.”

Yin Yuan said: "We should also learn some sales techniques from others."

"What other sales methods are there?" Huang Guanyuan asked puzzledly.

"Whether it's a suite or a shop, it all has a better location. Those real estate developers will cover up the high-quality houses and try to sell the inferior houses first. We also use this trick. Have to learn.”

Neither Huang Shaoqi nor Pan Nianzu understood: "Which floor is the best, high-rise or staircase?"

Yin Yuan said: "There is a saying in the stair house that it is called Gold Three Silver Four, because the first and second floors are very humid and have bad air. It is troublesome to go up and down on the sixth and seventh floors. The third and fourth floors are the best."

"As for the elevator room, there is no need to pay secondary water supply fees on the 6th to 7th floors, and the housing price is low because the floors are low. Or the 23rd to 28th floors have good lighting and will not be affected by the distance between buildings. The 8th to 11th floors are dust floors. No one who knows better would choose.”

Pan Nianzu finally understood that when he first bought a house, his uncle specifically told him not to buy a suite on the 8th to 11th floors. It turned out that there was this meaning behind it.

After dinner, Huang Shaoqi said he wanted to play a game of chess with Pan Nianzu.

He knew he couldn't beat Yin Yuan, but he thought he was as good as Pan Nianzu, or even better than him.

Huang Guanyuan was discussing another matter with Yin Yuan.

"Last time I met with a boss Su from Zhejiang at the Xiangshan City Trade Union. He asked me how much the rent for a commercial building would be."

Both commercial buildings have three floors, plus an underground parking lot.

The construction area is [-] square meters, which can be used to build a large shopping mall.

Yin Yuan said: "If he wants to rent the whole floor, we can give him a preferential price."

Huang Guanyuan said: "He just wanted to rent the lower floor to open a self-selected supermarket. I offered him a monthly rent of 9 yuan/square meter. But he wanted to sign a 10-year contract, but I haven't agreed to it yet."

Yin Yuan said: "It's okay for him to sign for 20 years. His rent doesn't need to be increased in the first three years, but starting from the fourth year it has to increase by 10% every year. Because the rent of the shop will definitely increase in the future."

Huang Guanyuan told Yin Yuan the phone number of Boss Su.

"Either you talk to him."

Yin Yuan called Boss Su.

"I talked to Mr. Huang last time, and he said he wanted to discuss it with you. I am going to rent you an entire floor of [-] square meters to open a self-selected supermarket. Because the initial investment is relatively large, it is not cost-effective if the lease period is short. So I want to sign a ten-year contract with you, or longer, do you think that’s okay?”

Yin Yuan said: "No problem, you sign for 15 years or 20 years. It's no problem. I don't need to increase your rent for the first three years, but starting from the fourth year, it will be calculated by increasing it by 10% every year."

Boss Su said: "Mr. Yin, your move is too powerful. The price increase is too big, how can you afford it? It starts at 9 yuan/square meter, in the fourth year it is 9.9 yuan/square meter, and in the fifth year it is 10.89 yuan/square meter …”

Yin Yuan said with a smile: "Mr. Su is a shrewd person. If you compare the rent of shops in the past few years with the rent of current shops, you will know how much the rent has increased? It has not even increased by 10% every year. In the future, it will only increase. It will be less.”

Boss Su thought for a while and seemed to think that was the case.

He has taken a huge advantage by not raising the rent for the past three years.

"Starting from the fourth year, the increase will be 8%. Do you think it's okay?"

Yin Yuan said to him: "Think carefully about what I just proposed. I will not increase your rent for the first three years. Your business has stabilized. A higher rent will not be a burden to you at all."

Boss Su promised to contact him after thinking about it.

Huang Guanyuan said to Yin Yuan again: "I have an idea. In another commercial building, I invited more than a dozen large furniture factories in Dachong Town to rent the entire building and turn it into a furniture exhibition and sales center. Businessmen from other places came to Xiangshan City. You can go to the exhibition center to see samples or discuss business.”

Yin Yuan said: "Uncle, your idea is very good and it should work."

Huang Guanyuan said: "Okay, I will take care of this."

That night, Pan Nianzu and Huang Shaoqi played two games of chess, and each lost one game, evenly matched.

The two are indeed on the same level.

Several people arrived at the Xiangshan Hotel around eight o'clock the next day. The competition venue was located in the large conference room on the second floor.

Yin Yuan drew lots and drew Xu Wendong first.

This man is a small man, not very impressive in appearance, but with a pair of very lively small eyes.

"I have heard about Painter Yin for a long time, and Painter Yin has already entered the ranks of famous painters. I never expected that his level of Go is so high."

"Painter Yin, just be merciful and don't let me lose too badly."

Yin Yuan said: "Brother Xu is being humble. Brother Xu is not weak in chess. He can get the top place in every competition. His strength should not be underestimated."

The two guessed, and Xu Wendong went first with black.

Everything was stable at the beginning, and the layout was all traditional.

In the confrontation between several corners, there is defense and offense, no distinction between top and bottom.

Yin Yuan spent less time in comparison.

After Xu Wendong played more than 100 moves of chess, he spent more time thinking.

Yin Yuan was still unhurried and unhurried.

White began to gain an advantage in the chess game.

Xu Wendong abandoned his son and said: "Painter Yin's chess skills are indeed extraordinary. I have already lost."

Yin Yuan said: "Don't you want to see the outcome after winning the championship?"

"I lost and learned a lesson. Your changes in chess are really dazzling, unpredictable and unexpected."

Throughout the game, several other people also decided the winner.

Li Ciying played against Huang Shaoqi, and Huang Shaoqi won with black.

On a whim, Huang Guanyuan and He Jian set up a chess table in the corridor outside and started playing chess.

At this time, Huang Qiusheng's brother Huang Haisheng saw Huang Guanyuan playing chess with He Jian and did not bother him. He stood aside and watched the two of them play chess quietly.

More than an hour later, He Jian said: "Old Huang, if you play chess to this level, you have already lost. If you play chess again, you will appear ignorant."

Huang Guanyuan said: "It's because this guy is distracting me. I want to tell him something. I'll fight you later and see if I can beat you?"

He Jian said: "Haha, you are really good. If you lose, you can still put the responsibility on others."

Huang Guanyuan took Huang Haisheng to a small conference room nearby.

"Mr. Huang, I'm sorry. I went to Jiangming to open a factory. I should say hello to you first. I shouldn't have dragged away several workers in your factory." Huang Haisheng said apologetically.

Huang Guanyuan said: "Let's not talk about this anymore. After you earn some money from working, who doesn't want to be your own boss? It's understandable. It's only after you actually do it yourself that you realize it's not what you imagined."

He said: "Whatever you do has nothing to lose to me. If you don't become a plumber, there will be a lot of people trying to squeeze into the position of plumber. I heard your brother say the other day that the factory you opened has no orders. The workers all quit their jobs and left, so I made a suggestion to him when we couldn’t continue working.”

"Do you want to do OEM processing? I will let you process the orders from my factory. If the quality is guaranteed, I will pay you a certain fee. The profit is relatively thin, but it can allow your factory to survive."

Huang Haisheng asked tentatively: "For example, what is the unit price of a federal five-piece set?"

"700 yuan, 450 yuan for materials, 200 yuan for workers' labor and other expenses, and you still have 50 yuan in profit."

The wholesale price he sells to customers is 850 yuan per set, and he earns a net profit of 150 yuan per set.

Huang Haisheng gritted his teeth and nodded and said, "I'll do it. Thank you, Mr. Huang, for showing me a clear path. Don't worry, I will do it well."

Huang Guanyuan reported the prices of several other pieces of furniture to him.

Huang Haisheng used to be the supervisor at Guanyuan Factory. He knew the cost of materials and labor costs, including the ex-factory price.

Huang Guanyuan agreed with him on the cost of rough processing and finishing. It was agreed that when receiving an order, he could pay some deposit first, and then settle the balance after completing the rest and receiving the goods.

Huang Haisheng agreed.

Yin Yuan played chess with five people in the morning and won all of them.

Nianzu and Shaoqi both won three games and lost two.

Anthony Wong and Liu Guining lost, but unexpectedly won with Xu Wendong.

When he walked out of the conference room, he saw his brother talking to Huang Guanyuan and his son. Huang Shaoqi gave an order for one hundred federal five-piece sets for his brother's factory to process.

He also said: "I will make these [-] sets first, and I will arrange an order for you every few days. As long as you are willing to work hard, I guarantee that you will have endless work."

When Huang Qiusheng used to work at Guanyuan Factory, he knew that many small factories came to him to receive processing orders.

He also proposed this matter to his brother and brother-in-law, but his brother was worried that Mr. Huang and his son would definitely be angry with him and would not let him do it alone.

Of course, he also went to inquire with several major factories and wanted to take processing orders, but no one paid attention to him.

Unexpectedly, when he was on the verge of bankruptcy, Mr. Huang gave him a hand.

Huang Haisheng said that he would invite the Huang family and his son to a restaurant for dinner at noon. Huang Shaoqi said: "Who will eat your meal? We are competing here, and the organizer will arrange food and accommodation."

Huang Haisheng left with great gratitude.

During lunch at the restaurant, Yin Yuan sat down with the Jiangming City team members.

He asked Zhao Tinghao: "Professor Zhao, did you achieve a complete victory this morning?"

He said guiltily: "I fought against that guy Liu Changding, but I lost to him. I haven't fought against Liu Guining yet?"

He was thinking: Could it be that my chess skills have regressed?

Or has the Liu family's chess skills improved?

Yin Yuan comforted him: "Don't be discouraged. The young man is making rapid progress. If he loses to his son, he might beat his father this afternoon."

Zhao Tinghao said: "I lost to Xiao Liu, but I defeated Xu Wendong. I thought it would be a tough battle with him, but he was a little absent-minded, so I defeated him easily?"

Yin Yuan said: "Xu Wendong lost against me, he lost against you, and he also lost against Huang Qiusheng. Didn't he lose three games and only win two. From the looks of it, our Jiangming team is considered to have won two games this morning. A great victory.”

He Jian also said with a smile: "Everyone performed well. I hope everyone will continue their efforts and work hard in the afternoon."

Cheng Bin also said that he won three games and lost two.

After lunch, I rested for more than an hour.

During this period, Yin Yuan also received a call from Boss Su: "Hello, Mr. Yin, I am Su Xiangyang. I will sign with you on the first floor, just as you said."

"Ms. Su is a cheerful person. Are you free tonight? Let's meet for dinner and sign the contract."

Of course you pay a deposit.

Su Xiangyang said, "Okay, but are you, Mr. Yin, free to come to Xiangshan?"

Yin Yuan said: "I have been participating in a friendly Go match at the Xiangshan Hotel these two days. My uncle is also here. Or should I come to the Xiangshan Hotel to get a private room?"

Su Xiangyang said he had no objection.

Yin Yuan found the room next door where Lao Huang and his son lived, and told him about inviting Boss Su to the hotel for dinner tonight and signing a contract.

Huang Guanyuan said cheerfully: "It's a good sign. People are already renting the house before it's ready. This property should be easy to sell in the future."

Yin Yuan said with a smile: "Since someone opens a self-selected supermarket, forget it. I also want to open a supermarket myself if no one rents the building after it is built."

There are no regular supermarket chains these days, but within a few years, several big foreign brand supermarkets, as well as several domestic supermarkets, will pop up.

Opening a supermarket is also a big and profitable business.

When he said this, Huang Guanyuan and his son must believe it.

As long as it was something he wanted to do, he had succeeded in many businesses.

In the afternoon, Yin Yuan's first opponent turned out to be Liu Guining.

See them two masters playing chess.He Jian, Huang Guanyuan, and several others all chose a position where they could watch the chess, but from an angle that would not affect them.

Liu Guining said: "Xiao Yin, young man, please be merciful, don't let my old man lose so embarrassingly!"

Yin Yuan said: "Master Liu, don't be too modest. I don't even know whether I win or not."

The two guessed, and Yin Yuan played black first.

It turned out that Liu Guining was old and would play more conservatively.

Li Mincheng and Zhou Yi from the Academy of Fine Arts, as well as Zhao Tinghao, are all like this.

But Liu Guining is unexpectedly full of energy. Even if he takes certain risks, he dares to make moves in unexpected places.

Moreover, the chess moves are wide open and closed, and you can always make good moves at critical moments.

Fortunately, Yin Yuan was able to flexibly adapt to changes. After more than 100 shots, he used more versatile responses to make the other party fall into deep thought.

After more than 200 shots, Yin Yuan gained a slight advantage.

In the closing stage, several robberies fell into a state of strangulation.

In the end, Yin Yuan defeated him by a slight margin.

"I admire it. Young people have stronger fighting spirit. I once played chess with Ma Xiaochun. You were slightly inferior to him in terms of actuarial calculation, but he was not as good as you in terms of changes in chess moves."

Yin Yuan said: "Master Liu is a national player and there are many things worth learning from me."

He Jian and several spectators watched the battle in a thrilling way and learned a lot from it.

Next, it was Yin Yuan's turn to make a deal with Liu Chang.

Compared with his father, his chess skills are slightly inferior, but he is better than Xu Wendong. I don’t know why he lost to the opponent again in the knockout round.

Yin Yuan also maintained his undefeated record in the afternoon.

Ranked first, Liu Guining ranked second, Liu Changding third, Zhao Tinghao fourth, Huang Qiusheng fifth, Xu Wendong sixth.

Tomorrow's team competition will also be decided by the six of them.
