Watching Su Yingxue get into the Santana police car, the car spewed out a cloud of exhaust gas and sped away. Li Mu kicked a can away from the roadside without much interest.
It was not easy to escort the goddess home late at night, but the bastard who fawned over the leader got in trouble. Fortunately, it seemed to be a good thing to be able to learn to drive with the school beauty whom I had a crush on for many years.
Su Yingxue in the car turned her head, saw Li Mu's actions, and couldn't help but smile. Has this guy always been so interesting? Why didn't I realize it? I always thought he was silly, even cute, and his style seemed to have changed too quickly.
Li Mu didn't know that Su Yingxue had been watching him until the car turned at the intersection.
He just thinks that his high school life has come to an end now, and starting from tomorrow, he will have to prepare for college.
Money sounds like a small thing, but if you think about it carefully, you still need to hold on tighter. His parents will be unemployed at the end of the year. Li Mu's hope is to help his parents find a new way out before going to college.
Li Mu knows his parents. They consider themselves young and strong when they are about forty years old. Even if he can make a lot of money, pile a lot of money in front of them, and tell them that they can take care of themselves in old age, they will not be able to take time off.
They need a career to maintain their enthusiasm, and they also need a career to prove their worth, so the best solution is not to let them lay off their jobs and then explore the society. You should find a reliable career for them. direction.
Li Mu thought carefully about what business to do in 2001 that would be easy to make money without being too tiring or troublesome.
After thinking about it, Li Mu suddenly looked up and saw the signboard of the Baleno store that was still lit late at night. Li Mu suddenly felt enlightened.
Yes, open a specialty store!
In Haizhou now, there are still very few clothing brands for young people. Apart from sports and leisure brands like Li Ning and Double Star, the only ones seem to be Baleno and Jeanswest.
Semir has not opened yet, nor has Yichun. Metersbonwe, which has been popular for many years, has not opened either. The first Metersbonwe that I remember opened was during my first winter vacation in college, during the lunar calendar. It opened on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and the business was so booming that it was still more than half a year away. The franchisee should not have started operations yet.
When he thinks of Metersbonwe, Li Mu thinks of Jay Chou, a figure who will become a king in the future. He has endorsed this clothing brand for more than ten years. Although Metersbonwe has not gone up the level in more than ten years, Li Mu can To be sure, in the past ten years, brands such as Baleno, Semir, and Yichun have long been in decline, but only Metersbonwe is still holding strong in the mid- to low-end market.
If you spend your own money to join a Metersbonwe store for your parents, I dare not say anything else. In a city like Haizhou, it is definitely not a problem for a store to make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.
Moreover, he had a deeper understanding of the history of Metersbonwe, that is, Metersbonwe was the clothing brand that paid the most attention to information construction. Their powerful network system support invited famous American companies to Made by Cisco, Li Mu doesn’t know if they have started to ask Cisco to help build the network system. However, from this point alone, it can be seen that this brand has a very long-term consideration. Moreover, with an efficient network system, joining the Merchants will be very worry-free when it comes to purchasing and adjusting goods as well as handling inventory, returns and other issues.
My mother is from a financial background, and my father is also very careful in his work. If he opens a specialty store and hires an experienced store manager and some young salespeople, they basically don’t need to be in the store every day. They only need to check the payment regularly. , inventory and system sales records are almost the same. With my mother here, I don’t have to worry about others tampering with the accounts.
You don't have to worry too much, and you don't have to work too hard. You can definitely make money, and you can make it for at least a few years with confidence. The feasibility of this plan is very high. What you need to consider now is how much money it will cost to open a store.
…
The next day, Li Mu checked some information on the Internet and looked at Metersbonwe's official website, and he already had a rough idea in his mind.
There is no franchise fee for joining Metersbonwe, but there are several conditions.
First of all, priority is given to blank markets, that is, those in prefecture-level cities that do not yet have a Metersbonwe store;
Secondly, specialty stores in fifth-tier prefecture-level cities must be on the street in bustling urban areas, with an area of not less than 80 square meters and a counter area of not less than 50 square meters;
Thirdly, the investment amount in fifth-tier cities is not less than 200,000 yuan, and the decoration standard is 80,000-150,000 yuan;
After meeting these requirements, you can apply to Metersbonwe and pay an inspection fee of 3,000 yuan. They will first send an inspector to inspect. After passing the inspection, they will take it back to the headquarters for review and approval. It begins with the practical stage of training, decoration, and distribution of goods, and then it can be opened.
Li Mu roughly calculated that the overall cost is actually about 400,000, because the official investment amount actually takes into account the local rent and distribution volume. If you open a specialty store according to the standard of 80 square meters, the one-year rent will be just as much. It only cost tens of thousands of yuan. After all, this was a fifth-tier small city in 2001. The price of commercial housing was still below the thousand yuan line, and the price of bustling commercial buildings was only a few thousand per square meter, so the rent was naturally not much more expensive.
However, considering that the store also has a great impact on business, Li Mu still prefers a larger area. Specialty stores in later generations often have an area of several hundred square meters, but now they are generally less than a hundred square meters, which may also be the case. Investors are cautious about the future.
The larger the store, the rent, decoration, distribution volume and even the number of salespeople will increase accordingly, but it doesn't matter. According to online reports, it usually only takes two months from the beginning of the review to the final opening of the store. If the decoration speed is fast, The store even opened in more than a month. Based on this calculation, the first person to open Metersbonwe in Haizhou in his previous life will not start implementing it for at least three months.
What is lacking right now is money.
Li Mu opened the QQ account called Immortal Endless, and as soon as he went online, he received a message from Sun Peng: "Hello, the price of one million is too high. I found a partner to buy shares. Eight hundred thousand is ours." Two of the limits that can be taken out, okay?"
Sun Peng didn't lie. Eight hundred thousand was indeed his limit. He quietly communicated with his old partner. The other party was very interested, and he also disliked people like Jia Bei. If he took down someone like the Stone Overlord, With Qi Juechen's awesome plug-in, he no longer has to worry about people like Jia Bei competing for his job.
When the two of them added up, the total cash amount was only close to 700,000. Afterwards, the two contacted their families and communicated. The total cash that the two families could come up with was just over 100,000. After all, Spending 800,000 yuan is really at the end of the rope.
However, both of them are very confident that as long as the Stone Overlord gets it, the former agents will immediately come to beg them like dogs smelling bones, and they believe that profits will be realized soon.
Li Mu thought about it carefully. Since Sun Peng said this, regardless of whether what he said is true or false, one thing is certain. If he agrees, he will get 800,000 yuan soon. If he wants more, then There must be back and forth communication and bargaining, and I don’t know how long it will take.
After wanting to understand this, Li Mu replied to him: "Okay, then eight hundred thousand, where are you?"
"Yanjing!"
Li Mu thought about the geographical location. Yanjing was too far away and it was the opponent's territory. It was impossible for him to go there in person. It was not safe, so he might as well choose a slightly more moderate place.
So, Li Mu said: "You guys come to Pengcheng to trade!"
"Pengcheng?" Sun Peng asked hurriedly: "Are you in Pengcheng?"
Li Mu: "Yes, I will bring a laptop for you to check the program. You can deposit the money into the CCB card in advance, and we will go to the bank to transfer the transaction."
"This..." Sun Peng hesitated.
In fact, even if he decided to buy this plug-in, he still had many worries.
For example, will the other party abide by the agreement and stop using the plug-in after selling it to me? Maybe he sold the Stone Overlord to himself, and then used the same code and changed his name to compete with him
For example, does he have a better technical solution and make a Stoneware plug-in that is even more high-end than Stoneware Overlord
Another example, is he a liar? Making a fuss about the code
Sun Peng thought too much, but he couldn't help but think too much. Eight hundred thousand was the entire property of the two of them. It could be said to be all the gamblers' chips.
Li Mu asked: "Why are you hesitating?"
Sun Peng said: "I'm afraid you will compete with us in the Stone Age field in the future."
Li Mu said: "If I had this plan, I would have run this plug-in myself. I guarantee that you will not make a penny in the future. The reason why I didn't do this is because I don't think highly of plug-ins." To grow something, you must have studied the Stone Age. With my technology, making a plug-in is still too overqualified. This is just a program I made casually. In my eyes, it is not even software."
Sun Peng was convinced.
When others show off to him like this, he may still resist, but this unrelenting effort is really awesome. After studying the Stone Overlord, they found that not to mention understanding other people's core technical codes, even the programming logic Can't research it.
Sun Peng, who is also engaged in technology, believed in this fight to the death at this moment and replied: "Okay, let's go to Pengcheng. You tell me a time, and I will go to the train station to buy a ticket tonight!"
