Chapter 240: Just work hard, don’t worry about the future, come on!

Cui Changjia spent two days in the Xiaonanshan area and negotiated a two-story unfinished shop near the intersection with a total area of ​​1,800 square meters, with an annual rent of 340,000 yuan.

Cui Changjia signed a three-year contract, which stated that the rent would not increase for three years.

If the landlord agrees, Cui Changjia would like to sign a five-year contract.

The owner of this shop originally wanted to rent it to Cui Changjia for at least 350,000 yuan per year, but Cui Changjia said that this was an unfinished house and she still had to renovate it. If she couldn't open the shop during this period, she would suffer a loss.

The landlord was also very determined. He spent six million to buy this shop. If the occupancy rate here was not too low, there were few people and it was difficult to rent a shop, he would never have rented it to Cui Changjia at such a low price.

Cui Changjia negotiated with the landlord for a long time before reducing the rent to 340,000 yuan.

As soon as the contract was signed, Cui Changjia asked Cui Xiuyuan to pay the rent to the landlord. After getting the key to the shop, she measured the dimensions of the interior of the shop late at night and then rushed home under the stars.

When she returned to the factory, she already had a complete plan for the shop in her mind.

It was late when she got home and there was no food in the canteen, so Aunt Zhang shredded some pork and cooked her a bowl of stir-fried hand-rolled noodles with two poached eggs in it.

As soon as the noodles were cooked, Cui Changjia took the big bowl to the office and talked about the shop with Cui Xiuyuan.

When Cui Xiuyuan received a call from Cui Changjia saying that she had taken a fancy to a shop of 1,800 square meters, he was so shocked that he could hardly sit still in the factory.

I have to say that his sister is really ruthless. She spent nearly 2,000 square meters at once. With such a large area, it would cost at least 200,000 yuan just to lay the floor, paint some latex paint, and hang the ceiling. Moreover, for this 1,800 square meters, making furniture samples alone would be a considerable expense.

He said the investment would be three or five hundred thousand, but now the rent alone is more than three hundred thousand!
Cui Changjia handed the blueprint to Cui Xiuyuan, and sat next to him with a bowl in his hand. While eating, he said, "Brother, draw the blueprint on the computer first, and I'll tell you how to do it."

As a man, he keeps his word. Cui Xiuyuan had already made a promise to his sister, telling her to go ahead and do it boldly. He could only grit his teeth and follow his sister's instructions to open the drawing software and draw the structural diagram first.

Cui Changjia was very hungry. He ate noodles in big mouthfuls while watching Cui Xiuyuan draw.

The two new draftsmen in the factory do not live in the factory, so Cui Xiuyuan has to do overtime work at night by himself.

It was just a sketch, very simple. The sketch of Cui Changjia was finished before he had even finished eating half of his noodles.

While waiting for the image to be printed, Cui Xiuyuan said, "I contacted a computer installer today and replaced a few computers, including yours. I'll come and install it in a couple of days when the configuration is ready."

Their drawing software requires a high-end computer to run. It would be a shame if the work was delayed because of the hardware, so they just replaced them all and spent a lot of money. There is really no need to save money on this.

"I hardly use it, no need to change it for me."

"It's a matter of spending an extra two thousand yuan. Today I paid back the money to Lv Lichao and Duan Jinyun. I think they feel quite regretful."

Cui Changjia smiled and said, "Our interest rate is more than double the bank's deposit interest rate, and we have never lacked their interest, so of course they feel regretful."

The blueprint was printed out, and Cui Xiuyuan showed it to Cui Changjia, "How do you want to decorate it?"

"It doesn't require any renovation. The floor and walls are simple. The main thing is to install a suspended ceiling and spotlights. The maximum distance between a spotlight and the other is two meters. You can calculate how many you need first."

Cui Xiuyuan said, "One every two meters, nearly two thousand square meters, at least one thousand are needed. With so many lights, they can't be routed in one line. If one burns out, the others can still be used. We need to find a serious electrician to route the lights. Can't we not use ceiling lights or spotlights? This whole set is estimated to cost fifty or sixty thousand."

"I don't think so. Brother, think about how many lights were installed in our previous store? We buy the materials ourselves, hire our own laborers and electricians, so we should be able to save some money. Brother, these are secondary," Cui Changjia pointed to the blueprint and said, "Brother, you see this shop has two gates. I plan to rent out the space ten meters behind the gate. The rent is calculated on a daily basis, two yuan per square meter per day. It extends eight meters back. Calculate how many meters this circle is and how much money we can earn in a month." Cui Xiuyuan was shocked by Cui Changjia's idea. This circle would have at least 1400 square meters. If all of them could be rented out, the rental income would be yuan a day, yuan a month, and a full yuan a year!
Then the basic expenses for running their entire shop will be enough, and the profit from selling furniture can almost be their net profit!
"Are you looking for branded furniture for rent?" Cui Xiuyuan's tone was filled with excitement.

"No, why would we hire furniture brands? Are we going to let them compete with us? We don't hire any furniture brands. We only hire people who do decoration, make curtains, and sell home appliances."

"Sister, work hard, I will support you unconditionally!"

Cui Changjia laughed, "I'll go to the building materials market tomorrow."

Their careers are finally about to embark on a new journey. All they need to do is work hard, don’t worry about the future, and come on!
The next day, Cui Changjia went to the building materials market after breakfast. She first inquired about the price of spotlights. After looking around, the cheapest ones were seven or eight yuan each. She thought they were too expensive, so she called Cui Zhengze, who happened to be in Su City. She asked him to ask how much the spotlights cost there. If they were cheap, she asked him to send a batch over.

Every bit of savings counts.

Anyway, they often transport and ship goods there, so it is convenient for them to carry things back and forth.

Cui Changjia was walking in the hardware market while talking on the phone to Cui Chengze. She wanted to go look at tiles first, and then go to Uncle Chang's shop to order latex paint, so that she wouldn't have to make another trip.

As she was walking, she suddenly heard someone calling her from behind.

Cui Changjia turned around and frowned immediately. It was Ye Mingzhi.

When Cui Changjia saw that it was him, he turned and left.

"Didn't Cui Changjia hear me calling you?" Ye Mingzhi actually ran in front of Cui Changjia and stopped her.

"Sister, what's wrong?" Cui Chengze said on the other side of the phone.

"It's okay. I'll meet someone. You can go today to do what I said. I plan to finish laying all the tiles within a week."

"I know. I'll go now."

After hanging up the phone, Cui Changjia looked at Ye Mingzhi and asked coldly, "What's the matter?"

"Cui Changjia, we won't become enemies, will we?" Ye Mingzhi looked at Cui Changjia's clothes and said, "You don't even have money to buy clothes, how about I buy you two sets?"

Ye Mingzhi is really despicable. When he was engaged to Cui Changjia, he was unhappy and crying all the time. Now that the engagement has been cancelled, he still says such things. Isn't he disgusted?

Cui Changjia looked down at his clothes: sneakers, jeans, and a cotton coat he bought at the wholesale market last year. His clothes were ordinary and his hair was tied up casually. This kind of outfit was certainly not high-end, but Cui Changjia's next main job was to oversee the decoration. He couldn't wear his nice clothes well.

"Are you sure?" Cui Changjia asked him, "The clothes I wear are not cheap. They cost at least two thousand yuan each."

Ye Mingzhi thought Cui Changjia was going to refuse, but he didn't expect Cui Changjia to say that.

Ye Mingzhi was a little happy. "Two thousand yuan, it's not like I can't afford it. Let's go now?"

Cui Changjia stretched out his hand towards him and said seriously, "No need to bother you to accompany me, just give me four thousand yuan."

My dears, the update is finished. Those who stayed up late to wait for the update should go to bed after reading this. Good night.
