Shen Yizhou has already arranged the decoration of the snack shop. He is the master who is usually responsible for the construction of the provincial department.

It just so happened that the store officially received the keys today, so Xia Qingyuan and Lin Dongxiu went to the food court early in the morning.

The master who led the team was named Kong. When Xia Qingyuan came over, he was looking at the drawings drawn by Xia Qingyuan.

Xia Qingyuan smiled and called "Master Kong." Then she explained her identity and purpose of coming.

Master Kong is of medium height. He works in the sun all year round and has dark skin.

The two exchanged pleasantries, and Xia Qingyuan mentioned some of the effects she wanted.

Master Kong smiled and said: "When Secretary Shen said that this drawing was made by my wife, I still didn't believe it.

Now it seems that it is true.”

Xia Qingyuan smiled: "I was just thinking about it based on my own ideas."

Master Kong nodded: "Basically, all the requirements you mentioned can be met. I have a suggestion for the door curtain."

Xia Qingyuan: "Master Kong, please tell me."

Seeing that Xia Qingyuan didn't mind, Master Kong said, "I think if you want to sell food, it would be bad if the door curtain is too long.

Moreover, the disadvantage of plastic door curtains is that they are heavy and tend to change color over time.

If you change the length to be shorter and hang down from the top, it can play a blocking role."

Master Kong gestured with his hand, and it reached the position of an adult's neck.

Xia Qingyuan seriously thought about Master Kong's suggestion.

There is also a step at the entrance of the store. If you add the step, the curtain will be just as tall as an adult. It will not affect people's view of the inside at all, and it also plays a blocking role.

This blocking effect will make people subconsciously feel that it can block some dust.

The most important thing is that they don't have dine-in service, or they don't set up tables outside the door, so the whole store looks much cleaner and tidier.

Thinking of this, Xia Qingyuan nodded: "Master Kong's suggestion is good."

Seeing that Xia Qingyuan agreed, Master Kong smiled and touched the back of his head, and continued: "Actually, I have another idea."

Xia Qingyuan looked at him with a smile and motioned for him to continue.

Master Kong said, "I know you don't want to dine in. You are mainly worried about the geographical location, too much dust and hygiene issues.

In fact, I think we can put two small tables on one side against the wall, which doesn't take up much space.

If someone eats something delicious, it will attract more people to come in, don't you think?"

Xia Qingyuan thought about this issue Master Kong mentioned later.

The freshly made beef offal in a pot is no different than those that require stir-frying or cooking. It's ready to order. It's quick to finish one portion and easy to clean up.

Now hearing what Master Kong said, Xia Qingyuan nodded again: "Okay, put two small tables next to it."

The small table is really small, probably less than half a meter wide.

But due to the special nature of the food she sells, no more than two bowls can be placed in front of one person, which is enough.

At the beginning, Master Kong also wanted to give Xia Qingyuan some suggestions based on his own experience. Unexpectedly, she accepted them so quickly and had a good attitude.

He was happy in his heart and said: "Don't worry, I will definitely do it well for you."

Xia Qingyuan also smiled: "Since my husband has found Master Kong, I can naturally trust him."

She paused: "I have a question. I want to confirm with Master Kong. How many days will it take to complete the shop?"

She paid the rent, but she was burning money every day, so she was naturally anxious.

Master Kong patted his chest and said, "It will take about three or four days to get it done for you."

In terms of hard decoration, Xia Qingyuan did not make major changes to the store. The simple renovation work could actually be completed on the same day. Even for the decoration and cabinets with some classical elements she requested, he had already found the materials in advance.

Hearing this, Xia Qingyuan had an idea in her mind.

She smiled and said, "Then I'll trouble Master Kong."

While he was talking, Aunt Wu hurried in from outside.

Seeing Xia Qingyuan, she panted slightly and patted her chest and said, "Madam, I finally found you."

She first went to the vegetable market along the way, and then came here from the path next to the vegetable market. Fortunately, she found it.

Xia Qingyuan hurriedly supported her and calmed her down: "What's wrong, Aunt Wu?"

Aunt Wu said: "My nephew called just now and said that there is a shop on Linhai Road that he wants to rent out.

It's said that it's very urgent to cancel the lease. Now if we go there, we might be able to rent it at a better price."

When Xia Qingyuan heard this, she quickly said goodbye to Master Kong and went to Linhai Road together.

The location of the shop Aunt Wu mentioned is about ten meters away from the pedestrian street. The two shops are adjacent to each other, each measuring 37.8 square meters.

The store had changed from the usual dazzling array of clothes. All the clothes had been taken down, and someone was packing them inside. There were sounds of men and women cursing.

It was still early and there were not many pedestrians on the road. Only people who opened stores nearby stood at the door and watched.

A tall young man next to them saw them, waved and shouted: "Auntie!"

Seeing Xia Qingyuan again, he nodded to her shyly: "Mrs."

Aunt Wu immediately introduced: "This is my mother's nephew, Wu Fang, who I told you."

Xia Qingyuan also smiled and nodded: "Hello."

Wu Fang explained to the two of them: "The owners of these two shops are related by sisters-in-law. The one on the left is the sister-in-law who first opened a shop on Linhai Road.

Later, when her younger siblings saw that they had made some money, they also started clamoring to open a store.

What a coincidence, she and her sister-in-law live next door.

The two of them tried their best to grab customers and made a lot of trouble, so they didn't have a good reputation on this road.

Some time ago, the old lady at home got sick, and I asked them to take turns to take care of her.

They were worried that the other party would steal all the business when they returned, so they were unwilling.

The old lady later got angry with her two sons and asked them to close the shop, pack their things and go home.

No, all the men in the family went out and ordered the shop to be closed.

The two daughters-in-law had no choice but to agree, but the landlord quit.

Now that the Chinese New Year is approaching, it is difficult to transfer the store, and they are unwilling to bear the landlord's losses, and they are asking the landlord to refund the remaining rent to them, and they are making a fuss."

It only took Wu Fang a while to understand the matter clearly.

When he spoke, his eyes were still shining. He was not gloating about his misfortune, but he was really enthusiastic about everything.

When Xia Qingyuan listened to his words, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

She asked: "How much is the rent?"

Wu Fang was stunned for a moment, then realized that Xia Qingyuan was talking to him, and immediately said: "I just heard them talking about 2600 per year for a single shop."

Xia Qingyuan nodded: "It's not expensive."

Then I realized that it was not that there were no people who wanted to take over the business, but that the people around them were also renting shops.

If this store is sublet, the owner of the original store will have no way to explain.

Unless you are like Xia Qingyuan, you want to rent a shop before the year and keep an eye on it.

No one knows yet, but as time goes by, it won’t be certain.

Xia Qingyuan said thoughtfully: "You can go talk to the landlord and see if it would be cheaper to rent the two rooms together."
