Northeast Night Talk

Chapter 137

I thought over and over again about the future of opening a store, secretly admired my far-sighted gaze, and was so happy that I couldn't sleep for several nights.

I always dream of getting rich one day, and the whole safe is full of gold bars...Mr. He Da's safe shocked me deeply.

At the beginning, when I saw Mr. He Da flourishing and majestic, I was very envious. At that time, I felt that Mr. Yin Yang was a very promising career.

Not only can you make a lot of money, but you can also help people seek good luck and avoid bad luck, which is very consistent with the purpose of eliminating demons and defending the way.
But...doing business doesn't seem so easy?

The first problem we faced immediately appeared, and the cash-strapped one was the problem of money... How can we do business without money?

The idea of ​​opening a store is imminent, but renting a store requires money. Although the rent of a store in S City is not very high now, it will cost thousands of dollars a year to find a remote place on the outskirts of the city.

He Yinyang and I found a shop in Chengguan District, and negotiated with the boss. The rent is 5000 yuan a year, and the one-time delivery is three years, which is 5000 yuan.

5000 yuan is not a small amount, but it is not out of reach. Brother Dong usually saves money for his own house, but it is only enough for one year's rent.

He Yinyang and I figured it out, and when the store turned around, 2 yuan would be about the same. After all, we are not a big business. It can be said that we are empty-handed white wolves. A table, a chair and a mouth are enough. .

He Yinyang volunteered to invest in his grandfather, Mr. He Da. I smiled resentfully. Mr. He Da doesn't even give you pocket money now. Do you still want to pluck the hair from this iron cock?
I didn't expect much at first, but it turned out to be a big surprise!
When He Yinyang put 2 yuan in front of my eyes, I was completely dumbfounded.

"My grandfather is very supportive of us opening a store, but there is a request..." He Yinyang looked at me submissively.

"What request?" I looked at him suspiciously.

"He wants us to bring in some funeral supplies..." he said awkwardly.

I was stunned, selling funeral supplies, isn't that what shroud shops do?Brother runs a Fengshui studio, okay?If there are some wreaths at the door or something, who would dare to come in and tell a fortune?How to do this business?
He Yinyang saw that I was reluctant, so he quickly explained to me...

After he finished speaking, I realized that the old magic stick had other plans.

The meaning of the old magic stick is to ask me to work for the funeral parlor!

The funeral home uses us to do the work?After listening to his explanation, I realized that this was the case...

Although funerals have been reformed now, and the government requires funerals to be carried out in funeral parlors, there are still many rural villagers in the suburbs and nearby counties. It is difficult to change the folk customs. It is still popular to build coffins at home, and the remains of the deceased will not They are sent to funeral parlors for cremation, and most of them are buried in the fields of their own homes. This matter cannot be controlled, and it has always been a resistance to funeral reform.

Mr. He Da really has some economic savvy, and he set his calculations on us.Chengguan is located on the edge of the city, and it is easy to get in touch with nearby villages. As Mr. Yin and Yang, if we can undertake some funerals, if we can persuade the family members of the deceased to go to the funeral home, then the funeral home will have another source of income.

He wanted us to play a role in mobilizing the villagers, and we became dependent on the funeral home. This idea is really meticulous and admirable.

"Brother Dong, think about it, it's always good to have multiple ways of making money. When we open this store, we can not only help people with fortune-telling and Feng Shui design, but if we add the channel of funeral, if it succeeds, then we will It's done!"

He Yinyang saw that my brows were tightly furrowed and I was unmoved. He was a little anxious, pursed his lips and said, "As for those Yin-Yang gentlemen in the funeral parlor, whoever undertakes the funeral and presides over the funeral is not a few thousand, my grandfather said , this store is for the two of us to practice, let us gain experience, as for the profit, we will share it with the funeral home fifty-fifty!"

To be honest, my heart was moved, and it was very moving.The group of half-hearted Mr. Yin and Yang in the funeral parlor did make a lot of money. A funeral, from funeral to coffin, can cost two to three thousand for a few, and there is a lot of money in it. Who doesn't like to do it?But the working environment is a little bit bad, I stay in the funeral home every day, and the deceased has to rush to take over when it comes.

It's different when I open a shop outside. I can pick up jobs by myself and go to the funeral parlor. After this trip, I can get half of the profit. Why not do it!It seems that the old magic stick has given us a favor and opened the back door.

"Success! That's it!" Brother Dong agreed decisively after some consideration.

Seeing that I nodded, He Yinyang was overjoyed at once, but soon his expression turned down again.

"My grandpa agreed, but he said that I have to discuss with the managers myself about cooperating with the funeral home. My grandpa said that he would not come forward to help me clear up the relationship." He said with a bitter face.

I smiled and understood.Normally, I really underestimated this old magic stick. I always thought that he got to where he is today by luck, but judging from his training of his grandson, it is by no means accidental.

The cooperation with the funeral home cannot be negotiated in a day or two, but we still have to open this store first.

With the 2 yuan sponsored by Mr. He Da, the rent was settled. When we handed over the rent to the landlord, the landlord was so happy from ear to ear. With his broken face, he is considered remote in Chengguan Yes, this price was really earned by him.

The store is in an alley, and there are stalls selling vegetables along the street on both sides of the alley. The environment is very dirty, but the advantage is that there is a large flow of people, and it is not very deserted.

The store owner gave us the key and left. We opened the shutter door and entered the house. The store was empty, but there was a faint smell of steamed stuffed buns. We guessed that this store used to be a steamed stuffed bun shop.

The area of ​​the first floor is not very large, but fortunately there is a second floor. The actual area of ​​the two floors is not too small, and it can be used as a warehouse.

This is where we are going to show our ambitions. The two of us are so excited that we have been homeless since graduation, and now we have finally found a way forward.

The two of us hooked up and went to the small store to buy a beer. We sat on the ground in the empty store and got up cheering.

I was drowsy from drinking in the afternoon, and I kicked He Yinyang awake, and there were still important things to do, so I started to celebrate.

He Yinyang and I split into two groups. I went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to apply for a business license, and he went to the funeral parlor to research the purchase channels, planning to buy some funeral goods.

Two days later, the plaque was finally inlaid, the name is 'Dongyang Fengshui Work Design Studio',
Han Dong's Dong, He Yinyang's Yang, although the names are a bit vulgar, they sound pleasant to the ear.

There are three subtitles on the plaque, 'feng shui design, hexagram fortune-telling, shroud funeral. 'It's clear and clear.

At this moment, there are already a set of tables and chairs, a set of sofas, and several pots of flowers and bonsai in the room. They were all extorted from his grandfather by He Yinyang, and some bonsai were even brought out from home.

As for the shrouds, paper money, and funeral objects, they have also been purchased, and they are now placed on the second floor.It cost us a lot of money to buy these goods, and the small urn alone cost several hundred yuan.

He Yinyang and I discussed it, and we will officially open before July [-]th, because July [-]th is the Ghost Festival, and ordinary people must burn paper money, so we can sell some goods.

The only problem left now is the issue of accommodation.Now that the two of us are opening a shop in Chengguan, we can't rush to the university town every day. It's not far from He Yinyang's house, but I don't have the nerve to go to someone's bed.

I made up my mind and planned to rent a house nearby. The rent here is not too expensive.

He Yinyang searched houses for me on the Internet. One bedroom and one living room houses are so sought-after, there are almost none, and the rest are basically rented together.

I saw a very cheap one and asked He Yinyang to contact me.The next day I called the landlord to see the house.

The community we came to is an old building from the 70s. The environment is not particularly good, and the walls of the yard are still hollowed out with red bricks.There is also a factory next to the community, and the towering chimneys are constantly filling the ozone layer.

The price is very cheap, so let's not be hypocritical. We climbed up to the second floor, and the owner is already waiting in the house.

The homeowner is a woman in her 30s who led us around the house.The house is quite big, with two bedrooms and one living room, a kitchen, and a washing machine in the bathroom. It's very good, and I'm very satisfied.

I saw that the other bedroom was empty and asked the owner why it was unoccupied.The owner of the house looked at me meaningfully and said: "Originally, I didn't plan to rent this house together, but it's a coincidence! Just before you two came, there happened to be a little girl who wanted to rent a house with me. In sum, let’s just rent it out for the two of you, that’s all!”

I was stunned for a moment, this is really a coincidence, and... the person who will be renting with me is a girl?Emma, ​​my little heart is beating for no reason, it's really a big girl getting on the sedan chair!Never slept with a girl... um no, never slept in the same room with a girl... um, that doesn't seem right either.

We can live in after paying the rent. I think it's still early, so we might as well move our things here today. Move early and quickly.

Originally, the school didn't have much stuff, so He Yinyang drove the funeral car and pulled it over for me in one trip.

It took a while to tidy up, and the house looked a bit homey. He Yinyang made a pennant, "The iron mouth is broken", I think this tone is quite loud, so I didn't dare to hang it in the store, so I just hang it at home. , Hanging in the living room seems a bit nondescript.

He Yinyang helped me a lot, and Xiaoya called. He Yinyang left me and went to his love.Sitting in a room that is not very full, I feel a little empty in my heart. This feeling is different from when I was in the dormitory, a little strange and a little hesitant.

I want to come out and live on my own one day, but I feel lonely when things come to an end. Maybe this is just growing up.

I fell asleep on the sofa all afternoon, and in the evening, there was a sudden sound of unlocking outside, and I sat up from the sofa in a jerk.

A girl of similar age was holding a big suitcase that didn't match her figure, and slowly moved in from outside the door, looking a little silly and cute at the same time.She saw me looking at him and glared at me, "Why are you still watching! Come and help me!"

Hey!This girl is quite arrogant, and she is so domineering when she asks for help.

That's what I thought in my heart, but seeing that this girl looks quite fresh, how dare I refuse when the beauty asks me to help me, so I ran over in a hurry.

The beauty didn't talk much, so I helped her set up the salute, introduced each other, and then went about my business.

But Ya's name is pretty nice, so I remembered it right away, Hu Yao, she asked me to call her Xiaoyao.
