Universe Infinite Canteen.

Chapter 91 Negotiation
"I know, but you have to go in and see the conditions inside before you can discuss the rent."

Ma Lu is now a successful person with a daily income of 20,000 yuan, so he is not intimidated by this number, but the asking price is indeed beyond his budget.

The most important thing is that the landlord doesn't seem to be very easy to get along with, and there will probably be some quarrels in the future.

Malu had already crossed out this store in his mind, but since he was here, it would be unreasonable not to go in and take a look.

Perhaps it was because Malu didn't show any timidity, and Lao Wang beside him was silent and seemed quite enigmatic. Ms. Chen was a little unsure about the two of them, so she finally introduced them into the store. .

There was also a middle-aged man with neatly combed hair, wearing a polo and a Longines watch.

The surname is Zhou, who claims to work in a bank and is married to Ms. Chen.

After a few simple greetings, Ma Lu saw that Ms. Chen and Mr. Zhou had no intention of introducing them, so he started wandering around by himself.

This hot pot restaurant has a typical layout of an outdoor hall and an inner kitchen. The outer hall for diners is about 60 square meters, and the back kitchen is 25 square meters. Among the several restaurants I have seen in Malu, the back kitchen ratio is relatively high. .

Lao Wang was very satisfied with this.

Many bosses hope that the front room will be as large as possible to accommodate more tables, so there will be very little space left for the kitchen, but this will reduce the efficiency of dining.

No matter how many people sit, slow service will actually affect the speed of making money, and will also cause the restaurant's reputation to decline. In addition, the mood of the employees working in the kitchen will also be affected.

Even if the palus are in a bad mood, it's not a big deal.

Malu walked around and could see that the previous tenant was very attentive when decorating and chose good building materials.

And because we are also engaged in catering, we contacted the Electric Power Bureau to increase the voltage capacity before opening, and the three-phase electricity was transformed, and the smoke exhaust pipes were also ready.

This can save tens of thousands of dollars in modification costs for those who take over the business later. As long as they simply renovate, purchase necessary kitchen equipment, replace the door with a new door, and buy some second-hand seats, they can start business directly.

The disadvantage is that the flow of people is average. It is said to be sandwiched between three communities, and it is not far from the entrance and exit of the community. However, the three entrances and exits are not the main entrance, and two of them will lock the door after 10 pm.

In addition, when he came over, Malu also took a look at the surrounding environment. This side road was very short, with a total length of less than 100 meters. There were no pedestrians or vehicles even one-fifth of the main road next to it.

But this is not a big problem for Ma Lu. The No. 1 food stall in the universe has already accumulated a lot of fame and customers. It has opened more than a dozen WeChat groups, so there is no need to worry about the early customer flow.

And there is a small parking lot 20 meters after the intersection in front, which can be regarded as solving the parking needs of some customers.

The most important thing is that it is not far from Hangzhou University. If you choose to open a store here, you don’t have to completely throw away the legacy that Malu built at the west gate of Hangzhou University in the early days. You can also inherit part of it.

After getting the desktop breeding farm, the takeaway business can be launched immediately.

It's a pity that the rent is too high, and the landlord seems to be a jerk.

While Ma Lu and Lao Wang were looking at the store, another man walked in outside the door.

The person who came was wearing leather shoes and trousers, with a Montblanc belt tied under his slightly protruding belly. He held a black leather bag in one hand and wore a string of Buddhist beads on the other hand. If nothing else, he should be the so-called Mr. Zhang.

When facing Mr. Zhang, Ms. Chen and his wife's attitude was completely different from that towards Ma Lu and Lao Wang. They took the initiative to greet him warmly and personally showed him around the store.

He kept boasting to him about how good the business of the previous hot pot restaurant was and how much money it made, complaining that their rent was too low, and so on, and then asked again.

"Mr. Zhang, have you thought about how to make a fortune here?"

"Oh, I plan to open a chess and card room." Mr. Zhang took out the Zhonghua bag from his bag, showed it around and saw that no one was smoking, then lit it himself, and said happily after taking a sip.

"The chess and card room is great," Mr. Zhou said. "The chess and card room makes money, and it's not as hard as catering."

"No, no, it's all about earning some hard-earned money. Rent, decoration, cleaning, and waiters are all expenses. In the end, I don't have much left. If I don't control costs well, I have to lose money. It's not easy to do business these days. ah."

"Looking at what you said, Mr. Zhang seems to be the kind of person who is smart and has the ability to make a lot of money," Ms. Chen said impatiently, "If there are no problems, let's sign the contract."

However, Mr. Zhang is also an old fox. How could he express his position so easily? He took another puff of smoke.

"No rush, no rush. I still have a few places I haven't visited yet. I have to compare them before I can make a decision."

"Hey, you can't find a place with a better location and cheaper rent around here than ours."

Mr. Zhang smiled and said nothing.

Ms. Chen frowned slightly when she saw this, and pointed at Malu again.

"It's not that I'm urging you, Mr. Zhang. The main reason is that our store is indeed very popular. Look at how many people have come to ask about it just one day after our news was posted. Mr. Ma, like you, is also here to see the house, and I I’ve made appointments with a lot of people tomorrow, if you don’t believe me, look at my chat history.”

Ms. Chen unlocked her phone, opened WeChat, and waved it in front of Mr. Zhang.

"Of course it's okay to choose a shop, but I'm going to say something ugly earlier. Mr. Zhang, after you finish the comparison, you find that our place is better. You may not be able to rent it when you come back."

In order to force the order, Ma Lu was successfully upgraded from Xiao Ma to Mr. Ma in Ms. Chen's mouth.

And judging from the fact that she made an appointment for both of them to visit the store at the same time tonight, in addition to being more convenient to see it all at once, she must also have the intention of letting both parties raise the price of each other.

At this time, Malu suddenly interrupted, "I see that all the shops facing the street here have two floors, so what is the upper floor for?"

"Oh, this is a commercial and residential building, and there are tenants living upstairs."

After Ms. Chen finished speaking, she saw Mr. Zhang raise her eyebrows, and before he could speak, she added, "Mr. Zhang, don't worry, the upper floor also belongs to us. The tenant is very honest and will definitely not affect your business down below. "

"Seventeen thousand is still a bit expensive." Mr. Zhang smiled slightly, as steady as a mountain.

"Hey, why is it expensive? Our place is 90 square meters. If you calculate the unit price, it is already cheap in the surrounding area. If you don't believe me, you can ask the next street. It's only one street away. The rent there is much more expensive than here." Mr. Zhou Also help the lady speak.

Ma Lu on the side was giving advice to Mr. Zhang.

"Mr. Zhang, if you want to open a chess and card room, it doesn't have to be on the first floor. If you rent the second floor, the rent will be much cheaper."

These words made Mr. Zhang a little excited, but before he could speak, Ms. Chen shook her head, "No, no, the second floor has been rented out."

"Commercial and residential houses offer water, commercial and electricity services. How can living in a community be as comfortable as that? You can ask the tenants to move to another place. I believe Mr. Zhang's price will not disappoint you." Ma Lu continued.

Ms. Chen and Mr. Zhou looked at each other, and it looked like they wanted to rent it. But in the end, Ms. Chen just said, "We'll think about it, and we'll rent the first floor first."

"Can you let me see the real estate certificate?" Ma Lu made a new request.

"We'll look at it when you sign the contract when you're sure you want to rent." Ms. Chen said casually as Ma Lu obviously didn't care about Mr. Zhang.
