Chapter 78 - Buying a Store
"Alright, I'll be troubling Master Zhao."
Zhao Xing said to Xiao Yi and gave him the key. Then, he turned around and left. Xiao Yi paced around the old shop for a while.
Looking at the golden area, it was a shop that wasn't very big. For a moment, he really didn't know what he could do. He had his own abilities, but it felt like he couldn't fully display them.
After walking around the shop, Xiao Yi walked out. He took a look at the bustling street and noticed that it was packed with people. Especially the Fu Ruixiang Jewelry Store on the left, the few big words were flickering with a golden light, which made Xiao Yi's blood boil. It seemed like this street was filled with gold and jewels just like the ones in Fu Ruixiang Jewelry Store.
He turned around and glanced at his empty and dusty shop, then looked back at the bustling business Fu Ruixiang Jewelry Store beside him. The corner of Xiao Yi's mouth twitched as he laughed bitterly.
"You bought this shop?" Suddenly, a skeptical female voice could be heard.
Xiao Yi was startled, immediately turning to look at the person who spoke. It was a woman in her thirties with heavy makeup. At first glance, all he could see was a thick layer of makeup. That head dragged her head, hiding most of her face. Only the shiny necklace on his chest, the South African diamond, looked particularly eye-catching.
He was very well-built and very plump. However, his chest was flat and unremarkable. Especially in the light of her plump figure, her chest looked even more flat. It could even be said that there wasn't any.
At this moment, he looked at Xiao Yi with a face full of disdain. Even the large mole on her forehead didn't move at all. It was like he was talking to the air.
However, Xiao Yi knew that this woman was definitely speaking to him. Because at this moment, in this bustling street, only the two of them stood there facing each other without moving.
"Something like that." Although his impression of this woman was not good, Xiao Yi still replied lazily.
"I had a long discussion with Secretary Zhang about this shop. "They're all unwilling to sell, but the old man actually sold it to you." The middle-aged woman swept her gaze across Xiao Yi's unassuming figure, and continued in a puzzled manner: "I have to say, you still have some ability. However, I have coveted this shop for a long time. To tell you the truth, I am the owner of this Fu Ruixiang Jewelry Store, Aunt Lan. All these years, the people who counted the money were all soft. "Look at the five rings on my finger, I'll change them every day."
This was a high profile way to show off one's wealth, but the human Aunt Lan had the ability to show off one's wealth. Strong capital and a booming business. There was nothing wrong with showing off her wealth in front of Xiao Yi, the poor brat.
"What do the things you said have to do with me?" Xiao Yi was silent for a moment, then raised his head and coldly said.
"Of course there is. "One million, transfer the shop to me." Aunt Lan laughed heartily and immediately threw out a huge temptation.
As the boss of this Fu Ruixiang Jewelry Store, Aunt Lan had long coveted this once overbearing florist. The Fu Ruixiang Jewelry Store was flourishing in business, of course there would be a trend of expansion. The one beside her was spending money, and that was exactly what she saw as meat. Only, this was Old Secretary Zhang Weimin's shop, she had been looking at this piece of meat and didn't have the ability to eat it.
Today, he accidentally discovered that the dust covered big door of the florist beside him had opened once again. From the looks of it, the family was bought by an unknown kid. This made Aunt Lan very happy, so she immediately went out of the store to prepare the other florist.
The Old Secretary s of the Old Secretary s could not move, but this brat's florist s had ten thousand ways to obtain them. To her, transferring one million was the most direct method.
Aunt Lan was laughing because she saw Xiao Yi's expression change. The two hands that were hanging down slightly clenched. This was the sign of being moved, the Aunt Lan saw things very clearly. She knew that Xiao Yi was tempted.
Forty square meters, a million. It was equivalent to 20,000 plus one square meter. This kind of sky-high price was something that could not be avoided.
Only, after a while, Xiao Yi took a deep breath, he shook his head and rejected the offer with determination: Not selling.
These two words were simple and straightforward. There was even a hint of arbitrariness in his words.
"Not selling?" Aunt Lan was startled for a moment. Then, with five fingers deep within his heart, he smiled at Xiao Yi: "Add another five hundred thousand."
On the other hand, the Aunt Lan was rich, so she increased the bid by five hundred thousand. This kind of spirit was something that only Fu Ruixiang's old lady could do.
Xiao Yi only chuckled and said: "I won't sell it for another five million."
"Why?" Aunt Lan was startled, a sullen look appearing on her face.
"Because I plan to keep this shop for my own use." Xiao Yi smiled confidently and said a bunch of nonsense.
"Use it for yourself?" The Aunt Lan scoffed, then scolded, "This place is so small, what can you do? Besides, how can I allow others to sleep under my bed? My Aunt Lan has taken a fancy to this shop. Even if you don't sell it, I still have ten thousand ways to get it. "
Aunt Lan's words were not out to intimidate Xiao Yi, but she did indeed have the ability to. He had crawled and rolled in the business world for so many years, but his connections were enough to crush Xiao Yi to death. She, the Aunt Lan, indeed had the ability to obtain Xiao Yi's florist through ten thousand ways.
Of course, this was because Aunt Lan did not know Xiao Yi. Based on her many years of experience looking at others, she had already identified Xiao Yi as a poor and average looking kid. Even if he got this florist from the Old Secretary, it was most likely an opportunistic action, so there was nothing to worry about.
Xiao Yi only chuckled at Aunt Lan's threats. And then he suddenly said, "It's so beautiful."
"What's really beautiful?" Aunt Lan was stunned.
"Your imagination was truly beautiful." Xiao Yi laughed, and then said with vigor: "Since you have ten thousand ways to get rid of it, then I will wait. I really want to see who in this ocean dares to fight with me over this florist. "
Aunt Lan, who had been humiliated by Xiao Yi, started laughing at this moment. Looking at Xiao Yi's florist, he muttered: "In my opinion, this ocean changes every day. On this street, your florist looks out of place. It does not match the beauty of the city, so my guess is that Urban Planning Bureau will quickly plan out that florist of yours. "
Aunt Lan's words were not wrong, on this street. Xiao Yi's old shop did indeed look somewhat out of place.
"Oh, then I'll wait." Xiao Yi smiled, and said with confidence.
"I forgot to tell you, I have some friendship with Urban Planning Bureau's Director Lu." Aunt Lan laughed until her branches trembled, and the makeup on her face seemed to be on the verge of falling off, as she said happily: "You refuse a toast only to be punished. However, this is good as well, it saved me 1.5 million yuan. Aunt Lan is very busy, I don't have time to mess around with a stinking brat like you. Let's ride the donkey and read the book and see what happens. "
After Aunt Lan said this, she shook the five huge diamond rings on her finger. Swing her fat bottom, she chuckled as she returned to the jewel-like Fu Ruixiang Jewelry Store.
When Aunt Lan entered the jewelry store while swinging her fat bottom, Xiao Yi's phone suddenly rang.
When he looked at the caller ID, he saw that it was an unfamiliar number. Xiao Yi pressed the answer button, opened his mouth and politely asked: "Hello, may I ask who you are looking for?"
"Excuse me, is this Mr. Xiao Yi?" It was the voice of a mature man. There was a trace of politeness in his robust voice.
"Yes, what can I do for you?" Xiao Yi smiled and continued to ask.
"It's like this." From the receiver, the man's voice carried a trace of secret joy, "I am Lu Haiyang, the director of Urban Planning Bureau of Jianghai. I heard that he wrote a good handwriting. Tonight, I have prepared a sumptuous dinner at my own house. I would like to invite Mr. Lee over, and also want to reward you with a few words. "
When Xiao Yi heard that someone was treating his to a meal, he immediately revealed a smile and asked, "Are there bear paws, goose liver s, oysters, marigolds, Almas caviar, Giant White Mushroom, and Louis 18 pizza?"
As for the words Urban Planning Bureau s and rewards, Xiao Yi was not careful at all. Xiao Yi did not take the Aunt Lan's words seriously at all. When he heard that there was someone to eat, he immediately became happy.
