Who would still start a business seriously after being reborn?

Chapter 29 The landlord is actually a school leader?
Cheng Yi remembers that during his sophomore year, Handong University used this shop as a topic and gathered some top students to study the reasons for its failure.

That group of top students from different colleges boasted that the location was in a blind spot and that there was a problem with the shop planning.

Anyway, after saying a lot of nonsense, the final conclusion is that this shop deserves to die.

Cheng Yi used to think their analysis was damn right, but looking back now, it was pure bullshit.

In fact, there are such shops in the commercial streets of many university towns.

It is located in a remote corner, and some students don’t even know what the shop does after graduating from college.

Ultimately, the business operations of merchants lack competitiveness.

Cheng Yi once made a characterization of college students that was not malicious but was realistic.

The two characteristics of the vast majority of college students are laziness and greed.

This is not a derogatory term.

Lazy means that most of them are too lazy to move. Once they go to college, the depression accumulated in three years of high school will be completely released, and they will unconsciously develop a kind of laziness. Even when going to the cafeteria to eat, many people are too lazy to go and try to ask their roommates to bring it back for them.

There are so many ways to express greed.

I crave computers, girls, food, drinks, toys, and everything I should crave.

A piece of watermelon can make everyone in the dormitory line up to meet the godfather.

These two characteristics of college students have also led to the emergence of a series of lazy cultural industries such as group buying, takeout, and online shopping.

And those shops in the corners and crevices died precisely because of laziness.

To put it bluntly, it's because the place is too far away and there's nothing that college students crave, so they're too lazy to go.

If there are free girls there, let alone the end of the commercial street, even if it is the end of the world, what difference does it make?

Even a bicycle can smoke when pedaled.

Cheng Yi and Du Yusheng walked towards more and more remote places until they reached the end of the commercial street. All the shops here were empty, and many shops were too lazy to even put up a vacant room for rent.

"Boss, isn't this too desolate? It's not even as good as our county town." Du Yusheng felt a little unbelievable.

Cheng Yi laughed and said, "This place was originally farmland, and there are no residential areas or towns around it. It would be strange if it wasn't desolate."

He reached the end and looked up to see the poor shop.

This four-story shop of nearly 1,000 square meters seems to be cursed and looks very desolate.

Looking at the rental phone number of Jifang on the wall, Cheng Yi took out his mobile phone under Du Yusheng's horrified gaze.

"Dig, dig, dig..." Du Yusheng pointed at Cheng Yi's mobile phone, so excited that he could hardly speak.

"What are you digging for?" Cheng Yi glared at Du Yusheng and said, "Can't you see I'm on the phone?"

"Boss, you actually have a cell phone?" Du Yusheng stared at Cheng Yi's cell phone, watching Cheng Yi skillfully dial the landline on the wall.

Cheng Yi smiled at Du Yusheng and said very pleasantly: "As long as you follow me and work hard for a month, you will also have a mobile phone of your own."

Cheng Yi's words shocked Du Yusheng. He looked at the mobile phone in Cheng Yi's hand, and the dream progress bar had almost reached 99%.

The bell rang a few times before an old voice came from the other end: "Hello, who is this?"

"Hello, are you renting a shop? I would like to consult you." Cheng Yi replied.

"Ah, ah, yes, yes, yes. When you are free, I will take you to see it." The old voice suddenly raised its tone and seemed very excited.

"I'm next to your shop now." Cheng Yi said with a smile.

"You, wait for me for a moment, I'll be there soon." The old voice quickly hung up the phone. Hearing his anxious tone, Cheng Yi wanted to tell him not to worry, but thinking from his perspective, he was more anxious than the old man.

With a shop of more than 1,000 square meters lying here, anyone would be anxious.

These days, the rent for popular shops in the city has reached 40 cents per square meter.

Even the rent in this commercial street is as low as 20 cents in some good locations.

Although this four-story shop is in a remote area, it is a new shop that has been developed for only a few years. All kinds of fire-fighting facilities are very standard, and it should be rentable for around 8 cents to 10 cents.

Based on an 8% calculation, the annual rent would be nearly 30,000 yuan. 30,000 yuan is enough to buy a house in the suburbs of the provincial capital.

If you lose a house in a year, who wouldn’t be anxious?
Not long after, Du Yusheng pointed at a bicycle speeding towards him in the distance and shouted, "Is that the landlord? He looks like an old man. Wow, he's even standing up to pedal."

He was a very stylish old man, who maintained a very good figure and had a very straight back. Even when he stood up and kicked, he kicked with great vigor.

As he watched the old man approaching from afar, Cheng Yi's expression became more interesting.

Isn’t this the director of the Student Affairs Office of Handong University?

Cheng Yi remembered that the old man was called Shen Dongxing, a man with a very bad temper and principles.

Because Young and Dangerous movies were quite popular at the time, and Shen Dongxing had a good image and temperament, the students gave him a nickname, Situ Haonan.

Cheng Yi really didn't expect that the most miserable landlord in their eyes was actually Shen Dongxing.

No wonder Handong University would hold a research seminar based on this shop.

I guess that was Shen Dongxing's most helpless and final struggle.

Shen Dongxing leaned his bicycle against the wall, his face flushed with excitement. He walked over and said, "Hello, are you looking at the shop?"

"Ah, yes, hello, hello." Cheng Yi kept a very humble attitude.

This is his immediate boss for the next four years.

How dare he be so arrogant?
Moreover, it was Shen Dongxing who arranged his first job after graduating from university.

Shen Dongxing is extremely concerned about student employment. He allows students to be picky about jobs, but he will never allow a student to be unable to find a job after graduation.

Those students who were too picky and had to stay at home to rely on their parents would often receive interview invitations from Shen Dongxing even a year later.

This is an old man with principles, responsibility, style and good looks. It is because of this that he was re-hired by Handong University.

Seeing Shen Dongxing again at this time, Cheng Yi was also a little excited.

Although Shen Dongxing's face now has some traces of time, his deep eyes still sparkle with wisdom. He is very tall, with neatly combed gray hair, giving people a calm and charming feeling.

Even when he was riding a bicycle at full speed, he was dressed very elegantly, with a neat shirt, straight trousers, and a pair of shiny leather shoes.

No matter where you go, it will become a unique landscape.

"Judging from your age, you shouldn't be that old, right?" Shen Dongxing looked at Cheng Yi and asked in surprise, "Are you renting it for yourself, or for your family?"

"You old man, are you questioning my boss's age? My boss is a business genius..." Seeing that Shen Dongxing had doubts about Cheng Yi, Du Yusheng on the side immediately became unhappy.

Cheng Yi slapped Du Yusheng back, causing him to hold his head and scream.

Cheng Yi looked at Shen Dongxing and said embarrassedly: "Sorry, my friend has always been disrespectful."

"It's not a big deal." Shen Dongxing rubbed his hands and just laughed dryly.
