Rebirth 00 I earned 999 from selling lunch boxes

Chapter 380 Not a fuel-efficient lamp

The next day at noon, He Wenlin heard from He Ling that the High-tech Zone was also planning to build a Xikelai shopping center, which would have shops for sale. She came to take a look and, by the way, went with He's father to pick up Grandma He.

Although He Wenlin was reborn, he didn't know everything and everywhere.

He Wenlin really has no idea whether this business district will be bustling in the future, but buying houses, land and shops are cheap now, and the prices will definitely increase in the future.

The prices here are cheaper than those in Times Square. He Wenlin took a fancy to two shops next to the entrance of the shopping mall, one facing the intersection and the other facing the side road.

The 28-square-meter storefront facing the intersection has a good location and a large area, and costs 115,000 yuan. It is the most expensive storefront here. The other one is 14.5 square meters and costs 37,000 yuan.

He Wenlin bought the two storefronts without hesitation. The other party offered a slightly lower price of two thousand yuan, which meant that He Wenlin spent 150,000 yuan for the two storefronts.

The interest rate for shop loans is higher than that for home loans, so He Wenlin always pays in full for shops.

No loan is required and there are much fewer procedures.

He Wenlin first paid a deposit of 20,000 yuan, and the remaining procedures will be completed on Friday.

Seeing that He Wenlin was so straightforward, He's father didn't say anything this time. He's father didn't quite agree with buying too many houses, but he was very much in favor of buying shops.

Especially now that He Wenlin also runs a cake shop, it is more convenient to have his own shop, so he doesn’t have to worry about the landlord raising the rent when he sees that business is good. That would be disgusting.

Paid the deposit and signed the contract.

Then Mr. He drove He Wenlin to the Mandarin fast food restaurant to pick up Mrs. He.

Xikelai Shopping Center is a bit far from He Wenhua. It takes 20 minutes to drive there even if there is no traffic jam.

"Uncle, Linlin, you are here too." Xia Lijuan was very enthusiastic when she saw He Wenlin.

Xia Lijuan introduced: "Dad, this is Wenhua's uncle, this is Linlin, this is my dad, and this is my brother Baokun and sister Lifeng."

He Wenlin smiled and greeted: "Hello uncle, hello brother and sister."

Xia Lifeng smiled and said, "My brother is not as old as you. He is only fourteen years old."

"Oh, that's my brother, hello."

No matter how much He Wenlin disliked Xia Lijuan, she was still He Wenhua's girlfriend, so she still had to be polite, so she was all smiling and polite.

When Father Xia saw He Wenlin, he smiled and said, "What a good kid! No wonder he's so capable."

After saying that, he looked at He's father and said with a smile, "During this period, my daughter Lijuan fell down. Thanks to the old lady for helping out here. She is so old, but she is still busy here. Thank you for your hard work. The children have made you worry."

At this point, Xia's father said to his daughter Xia Lifeng and son Xia Baokun, "Call me uncle, you are all dumb."

Mr. Xia is quite enthusiastic and good at speaking.

Xia Lifeng and Xia Baokun were probably embarrassed, so even though their father asked them to call for help, they didn't.

Father He glanced at them and didn't say anything about their rudeness. Because they were He Wenhua's in-laws, Father He was also very polite.

Father Xia acted like the host and said to He Wenhua, "Xiao He, buy some good food and wine. In the afternoon, let your uncle and grandmother have dinner here."

Father He said hurriedly, "Don't bother. My store is very busy, and there is a factory over there that is rushing to deliver goods these days. We also received orders for midnight snacks, so we are very busy. The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon. Then, we can have a meal together."

Father Xia said with a smile: "Okay, then let's have dinner together on Dragon Boat Festival. I heard that your supermarket is going to open soon, so we will go there to join in the fun."

"It's my honor." He's father said politely, "Then we will go back first."

Xia Lijuan pulled He Wenlin and said to her, "Linlin, my father and brother are here too. I'll ask them to help me. Can you arrange a job for my sister?"

"She can go to my food factory where we make egg rolls." He Wenlin said, "If she wants to learn how to make cakes, she can go and learn without any salary. If you guys are willing, let her come after the Dragon Boat Festival."

"After learning, there is no salary?"

"If she wants to stay and work for me, she has to sign a contract and serve me for six years. During her study, I will also pay her a salary so that she has basic living security.

Of course, if she breaches the contract, she will have to pay me 50,000 yuan. I will ask a professional lawyer to draft a contract. Since she is not yet an adult, her parents will have to sign it together."

When Father Xia heard this, he smiled and said, "Linlin, we are all family, so this is not necessary."

"Uncle, sometimes the people closest to you are the ones who are hurt the most. My own aunt and cousin learned a skill and secretly stole my clients. So... oh, I'm really sorry.

Lifeng is only fifteen this year. In six years, she will be twenty-one. By then, she will be about the same age and have enough experience. If she wants to open a store at that time, I will definitely support her."

When Old Mrs. He Wenhua heard what He Wenlin said, they were both surprised.

What surprised them was that relatives were stealing customers.

He Wenhua asked He Wenlin: "Linlin, is your cousin named Tang stealing your clients?"

"Of course I was. I was so nice to his family, but what happened? He contacted my client and offered me a price that was 20 cents cheaper than mine. We went to their door, but Tang Kai's cousin said that business was like a battlefield, where the weak are the prey of the strong. Humph, I reported him, and my uncle was arrested and locked up for most of the day. He was released only after paying a fine. My aunt was so sad that she moved out overnight." At this point, He Wenlin looked at the Xia family with a smile and said, "Business is not something that anyone can do if they want to."

He Wenlin answered in Mandarin, so the Xia family could understand him. When they heard the words "being arrested" and "paying a fine", they were frightened.

He Wenlin smiled and said to Xia Lijuan, "Uncle, sister-in-law, as long as Lifeng has no other thoughts and works honestly for me, I will never treat her unfairly based on the relationship between our two families. You don't want to sign the contract, do you have other thoughts?"

Xia Lijuan waved her hands quickly: "No, no."

He Wenlin: "It doesn't matter if she has one. Just let her come to work for me for a year and learn while doing."

In the first half year, you just need to crack eggs and knead the dough, and then I will teach you slowly later.

It is impossible to learn for free, let alone get a salary. If you perform well, bonuses or something like that can be given at our discretion.

The Xia family's father and daughter both looked unhappy.

He Wenhua said, "Lifeng just arrived, let's have some fun first, no need to rush to work, wait until after the holidays."

"Yes, let's talk about it later." Father He looked at the time. "It's getting late. Let's go back first. We'll talk about it when it's Dragon Boat Festival and everyone is having dinner. Let the children have fun for the next few days."

Father Xia's face froze a little, and he nodded and said, "Okay, we'll talk about it later."

He Wenhua and the Xia family father and daughter sent He's father and old lady He Wenlin away.

On the way back, Old Lady He sighed and said to Father He, "Wenhua told me this morning that the Xia family wants a betrothal gift of 50,000 yuan. Lijuan has also been thinking about setting a date for the wedding when both families are here."

Father He: "Fifty thousand yuan is a lot of money."

Old Mrs. He: "That's right. Who in the average family can afford to give so much as a betrothal gift? Wenhua is not even 20 years old. Which boy at this age can afford to pay so much? We are not from a wealthy family."

"I think they are asking for more because they see my brother doing business." He Wenlin said, "This family is not easy to deal with. Just now, my sister-in-law's father asked my brother to buy more good food and wine to take care of us. The tone is just like the host. Most people don't have this attitude."

Logically speaking, it should be Grandma He and Father He who said this, asking He Wenhua to buy more good wine and food to entertain his future father-in-law, but now the situation is reversed.

Father Xia treated this as his territory.
