Chapter 72

The actions of Fang Ming and Zhou Yafang soon caused a sensation in the Small Antique Street—the fact is that there is no way not to cause a sensation, because no one has carried out renovations in such a big way for many years.

Early in the morning, the staff of Little Antiques discovered the sound of tearing down the walls at the same time from several storefronts that had been fenced off yesterday afternoon.

"What's going on here? Why is someone decorating all of a sudden?"

"I heard that it was Zhou Yafang who bought Boshizhai and Chengwei Restaurant. It seems that the renovation together now is to merge the three stores."

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there will naturally be well-informed people. Although Fang Ming and Zhou Yafang bought Zhu Bai and He Lin's stores just happened, it has already spread, so we know Although there are not many people, there are also many.

"Isn't it? Such a big deal? Is it possible to make so much money in antique business now?"

"Yeah, dare to invest such a large amount of money? At least one or two million."

Noticing this big move, most of the onlookers were the bosses of Little Antique Street. They were all rolling around here. Naturally, one could roughly estimate that this time Zhou Afang's investment would definitely start at one million.

"One or two million? I heard that the antiques in Pan Xia He Lin's store alone cost 200 million."

"Huh? Bullshit? Spend so much money?"

"Tch, I had dinner with He Lin last night, and he said that Fang Ming and Zhou Yafang not only bought the shop, but also bought antiques from his shop, so Zhou Yafang really spent a lot of money this time. gone."

"Hey, it seems that Zhou Yafang is too impulsive in doing things. How old is it, and you still have such a big investment? You really think that antiques can make a lot of money."

Jiang Wen came early in the morning. She had already rented a house outside, so she didn't stay at Zhou Yafang's house anymore. She came here by herself. After a quick breakfast, she just wanted to help out in the store when she heard that these people He stopped immediately after the discussion.

At the beginning, she just wanted to hear what other people said, but the more she listened, the more anxious she became. She found that there were many people talking about it, but no one was optimistic about Fang Ming and Zhou Yafang.

"What's going on here? Why does everyone dislike Fang Ming and Sister Afang?"

After all, Jiang Wen was young, so she couldn't hold back any longer, and said loudly, "What do you know? Of course it's a good thing to have a big business store, so that you can attract customers!"

"Hey, little girl, you haven't done business, have you? You're right. Of course, a large store will attract customers more easily, but the cost is also high if the store is large. Not to mention, the rent alone is relatively high. The more important thing is that we are in the antique business. The size of the store is not the only important thing.

"This one……"

Jiang Wen couldn't think of how to refute, her little face flushed, and finally stomped her feet and rushed into the store.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Fang Ming and Zhou Yafang came earlier, drinking tea at a table in a corner of Afangzhai.

Hearing a rush of footsteps outside, Fang Ming looked up and found that it was Jiang Wen who rushed in, and her little face was flushed with anger.

"Huh! Those people outside think that it is wrong for us to expand the scale, and they are not optimistic about us."

Fang Ming and Zhou Yafang looked at each other and smiled. It was not surprising that the people outside were talking about it. Naturally, there were many reasons for this result.

"It's not entirely unreasonable what they're saying."

Jiang Wen was stunned by Zhou Yafang's words, and said, "Ah? Why do you say that?"

"The current antiques are indeed not as profitable as before. The first is that there are fewer and fewer good things now, especially when the whole people collect everything, no matter how good or bad it is, as long as it is in their hands, they are not willing to buy it." These people just don't want to sell or don't offer a high price, so it is more difficult to buy a piece of stuff than before, and the price is also higher; second, people are more picky now than before, antiques want to sell A good price is a bit too difficult. Of course, this is also related to the fact that there are too many people entering this industry. The competition has often become vicious. With the price being suppressed again and again, it is more difficult to sell at a high price than before. "

Zhou Yafang has been in this industry for several years, and she has a deep understanding of the changes during this period. In the golden age of antiques and gold in troubled times, now is the golden age, and there are more people playing antiques, but the whole market has not changed for the better. A feeling of getting worse.From this point of view, what those people outside are talking about is not wrong.

"Huh? Then let's expand the size of the store?"

Jiang Wen became even more anxious when she heard it. She didn't quite believe what was said outside the store just now, but now she heard Zhou Yafang admit it herself, so she naturally knew it couldn't be fake.

Shaking his head, Fang Ming said: "This is just one aspect of it. In fact, no matter which line of work it is, it is the same. Some people do well and others do poorly. The same is true for running a store. Those people can't play well, it doesn't mean we Can't play."

Together with Jiang Wen, it was indeed the case. My worry was indeed a little too much, so I smiled embarrassedly.

"Of course, another reason why these people talk so much is envy and jealousy."

Zhou Yafang poured Jiang Wen a cup of tea, nodded and said, "Yes, this is also one of the important reasons."

"Why is this again?"

Jiang Wen felt strange, she could understand what Fang Ming said before, but this really confuses her.

"Who in business doesn't want to open a big store? If you can't open it yourself, others will open it, so naturally you will be envious."

Jiang Wen tilted her head and thought for a while, and finally understood Fang Ming's words, "Hey, since this is the case, let's make them more envious and jealous."

Jiang Wen, Fang Ming and Zhou Yafang who were holding small fists at the beginning of the year all laughed.

Zhou Yafang's face was full of smiles, and she said: "In the future, everyone will flock to our store. It's hard to say anything else. At least our Wenwen will definitely attract all those men."

Jiang Wen's face turned red all of a sudden, and she said embarrassedly: "Sister Yafang, what are you talking about, I don't have such abilities."

"You don't? You must have, just wait and see."

Zhou Yafang is very confident about this, and she also thinks that Fang Ming's proposal to let Jiang Wen come to help in the store is a very good idea: no matter what line of work, a beautiful clerk can always attract customers more easily than other places. The same goes for antique collecting.Moreover, generally speaking, old men play collections. If a beautiful woman suddenly appears, it will be even more impactful.

Jiang Wen is definitely a beauty. In the past, it was just because of the poor living conditions that she couldn't dress up. Now that she comes to her shop, she must dress up well. It will definitely make people feel amazing.

"Ha! I agree with Sister Avon on this point. I think you will definitely become a flower in the Antique Street in the future."

Fang Ming is very confident about this point. After all, he has seen Jiang Wen wearing the C version of the little black dress. Jiang Wen really only lacks a good dress and nothing else!

Holding his chin and thinking for a while, Fang Ming suddenly said, "Sister Avon, do you think the employees in our store should unify their uniforms?"

Zhou Yafang was taken aback for a moment, but immediately came back to her senses, smiled, and said, "Although your idea is obscene, I have to admit that your proposal is really good. I agree. It seems that we Now there is one more thing, and that is to find someone to drive out this uniform."

"Ha! Great!"

Jiang Wen has an excellent figure, where the big ones are big and the small ones are small. Simply put, she has big breasts, hips, long legs and a childlike face. Put all these together and put on a uniform. Absolutely something very tempting.

Jiang Wen's face slowly turned red. Although she had never seen anything in the world, she understood what Fang Ming and Zhou Yafang meant. She lowered her head slowly, almost resting on her towering chest. .

"Jiang Wen, don't worry, you may not become an expert in collecting, but you will definitely become an expert in selling antiques, and, in our place, in addition to the basic salary, every time you sell an antique, you There will be a commission, so you work hard! I believe you will also become a man of the hour in Little Antique Street."

"Well, I'll try my best!"

Jiang Wen nodded emphatically, because her family's financial conditions were too poor, coupled with the reasons for escaping family planning, she had no way to study since she was a child, and just when she thought that she would repeat her father and mother's path in her life Fang Ming appeared in front of her and offered herself a job opportunity—in the eyes of others, it was just a job opportunity, but she understood that it was far from that simple. What Fang Ming gave herself was a chance to change her own destiny. opportunities, which allowed her to see a future different from her parents.

Of course, what she understands more is that if she wants to seize this future, she still has to make great efforts.

Looking at Jiang Wen's earnest expression, Fang Ming understood her thoughts at once. The children of the poor are headed early, which means that the children of the poor are mature early and understand the hardships of life better. Similarly, they also cherish the hard-earned Opportunity, Jiang Wen is like this at this time.The glimmer of hope in her eyes is like a spark of fire, as long as a suitable opportunity is provided, it will definitely ignite, and that kind of power will even scare herself.

Avonzhai, Boshizhai, and Chengwei Hall were all caught in the sound of wall beating and other renovations, followed by bursts of smoke and dust. It was impossible for Fang Ming, Zhou Yafang, and Jiang Wen to stay in the shop anymore .

Walking to the side of the road, looking at the shop that had undergone a major operation, Fang Ming's eyes also showed bursts of light. Soon his own shop will appear, and this is where his hope lies.
