Elf, I am really a farmer

Zhang Long, Li Hu and Sun Zheng took the money given by Wen Qi and set out to the city to buy a shop.

They knew that this mission was very important and they also understood Wen Qi's trust in them, so they all worked extra hard.

The three of them have been in the city for many years and have some connections.

They first asked around to find a suitable store for sale.

Relying on his connections in the underground black market, Zhang Long contacted some well-informed people and inquired about the situation of suburban stores.

Li Hu visited friends with whom he had done business before to see if they knew of any suitable store resources.

Sun Zhengze searched for various real estate information on the Internet, not missing any possible clues.

After some effort, they finally found several potential stores in the suburbs.

The three of them went to check it out without stopping.

The first store is not small in size, but its location is relatively remote and the surrounding transportation is not very convenient.

Zhang Long shook his head and said, "This place won't work. It's too remote and it will be inconvenient for guests to come here in the future."

Li Hu also nodded in agreement: "Yes, we have to find a better location."

Sun Zhengze was silently recording the shortcomings of this store.

Then they came to the second store.

The location of this store is relatively good, but the area is a bit small and the building structure is not very reasonable.

Sun Zheng frowned and said, "This area is too small. I'm afraid it won't be enough."

Li Hu also said: "Besides, this structure will be troublesome to renovate in the future."

Zhang Long decisively decided to give up this store and continue looking.

During the search process, they encountered some difficulties and challenges.

Some shop owners charge too high a price, which makes them stay away.

Once, they took a fancy to a store with a suitable location and size.

But when they negotiated the price with the store owner, he asked for an exorbitant price, five million for less than 500 square meters.

Zhang Long frowned and said, "Boss, your price is too high. We really want to buy it, so please give us a reasonable price."

The shop owner said in a tough manner: "Stores in this location are very popular, and my price is already very cheap."

Li Hu also tried to negotiate with the store owner: "Boss, we know this location is great, but your price is beyond our budget. Can you lower it a bit?"

The shop owner was unmoved: "No, this is the price, not a cent less."

Sun Zheng was watching the stalemate between the two men and the store owner, and he felt very anxious.

He thought for a moment and said, "Boss, we are just starting out and have limited funds. How about this? We'll pay a portion of the deposit first, and then when the store business picks up, we'll give you some extra returns."

After hearing what Sun Zheng said, the shop owner hesitated.

Seeing this, Zhang Long and Li Hu struck while the iron was hot and continued to persuade the store owner.

Eventually, the owner agreed to lower the price a bit, but it was still far beyond their budget.

The three did not give up and continued looking for a suitable store.

Finally, they found a relatively large shop near Chunhua Research Institute.

This place is in the suburbs and the price is very cheap. There are two floors in total, with a total area of ​​600 square meters, which is enough for a shop.

They walked into the store excitedly and carefully examined the house structure and surrounding environment.

Zhang Long said with satisfaction: "This is good, the location is good, and the area is large enough."

Li Hu also nodded in agreement: "Yes, the price is also suitable."

Sun Zhengze quickly contacted Wen Qi to report the good news.

They started negotiating the price with the shopkeeper.

Zhang Long spoke first: "Boss, we are very satisfied with your store. But can you give us a better price?"

The shop owner hesitated and said, "This price is already very cheap, I can't lower it any further."

Li Hu said, "Boss, we sincerely want to buy it. We will definitely run this store well in the future and bring you more customers. Please think about it again."

Sun Zhengze also said: "Boss, we are just starting out and our funds are indeed limited. Can you please lower the price a little? We will definitely remember your kindness in the future."

The shop owner thought for a while and finally gave in: "Okay, seeing that you are so sincere, I will lower the price a little bit. But it can't be any lower."

After hearing this, the three of them were delighted and quickly agreed on a price with the store owner, completing the transaction for three million.

With the joy of buying the store, they couldn't wait to go back and report the good news to Wenqi.

Along the way, they discussed the various advantages of the store and imagined the prosperity of the store in the future.

The three of them quickly returned to the farm, and after seeing Wen Qi, they couldn't wait to report the situation of the store.

Wen Qi didn't expect that these three people were so efficient and got things done in just two days.

He looked at the three people's excitement, a gratified smile appeared on his face, and he praised them heavily:

"You guys did a great job! I didn't expect that you would get the store done so quickly. It seems that I was right about you. Keep up the hard work."

The three of them felt very happy and proud when they received Wen Qi's praise.

Then, Wenqi decided to go check out the store with the three of them.

They rode on their goats and headed quickly towards the shop.

Along the way, Wen Qi's heart was full of expectations. He hoped that this shop could become an important base for him in the Pokémon world.

Arriving at the store, Wen Qi carefully observed the location.

It is very close to the research institute, with convenient transportation and relatively large flow of people.

And this store is indeed quite large, with two floors totaling 600 square meters, so the space is very spacious.

Wen Qi was very satisfied with the location. He nodded and said, "This location is great, and the store is big enough. You did a great job this time."

The three of them felt even happier when they heard Wen Qi's praise.

Wen Qi looked at the surrounding environment of the store again and began to plan the decoration style of the store in his mind.

He said:

"This store only cost 300 million, which is a good deal. I gave you million before, and now it's done for million. You can use the rest of the money for decoration.

200 million yuan won’t make the house luxurious, but it can be decorated to be more upscale. After all, we plan to sell high-end goods, and energy cubes cost hundreds of thousands of yuan at most, so it will be more profitable if the decoration is better.”

The three of them listened to Wen Qi's words carefully and nodded continuously.

Wen Qi continued:

“I hope the decoration style of this store will be simple and elegant, highlighting our high-end quality.

The first floor can be set up as a display and sales area, displaying various types of energy cubes so that customers can intuitively see our products.

The second floor can be set up as a rest area and negotiation area, providing customers with a comfortable environment and making it convenient for them to communicate and purchase with us.”

The three of them carefully took note of Wenqi's decoration ideas.

Wen Qi also emphasized: "The materials used for decoration must be of good quality, and the standards cannot be lowered to save money. If we want to build a brand that customers can trust, we must start with every detail."

After talking about the decoration, Wen Qi thought of another important thing.

He said to the three men:

"Take my senior cultivator certificate and go to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to open a store. If you want to sell energy cubes, you must have a mid-level cultivator or above to guarantee it before you can open the store."

Wen Qi knew that this was necessary. Otherwise, if anyone could open a store, it would easily cause market chaos, uneven product quality, and affect the growth of Pokémon.

The three of them understood the importance of the matter and nodded, saying that they would definitely get it done.

Wen Qi looked at their serious expressions and felt full of confidence.

He believes that with the efforts of these three people, the store will be able to open smoothly and achieve success.

Finally, Wen Qi said: "The rest is up to you. I look forward to the store opening soon and bringing us more profits and opportunities."

After saying that, Wen Qi rode away on his goat, leaving the three of them to busy themselves with preparations for the decoration and opening of the store.
