The ground floor of Jincheng Building has an area of 2,000 square meters for rent. Dad Xu has already inquired about it before. Because of SARS, the shopping mall’s leasing has not been smooth. At present, the preliminary intention that may be reached is that the rent is about 110,000 a year.
Because he has experienced the era of skyrocketing housing prices (including shop rents), Xu Tingsheng was a little overwhelmed by this price. The most central location in the county, the most eye-catching building, with an area of 2,000 square meters, the annual rent is only 110,000
In his previous life, Xu Tingsheng knew almost nothing about housing prices and commercial real estate prices around 2003. That was not something he would have paid attention to based on his family situation and way of thinking at that time. It is a year of commercial real estate, and commercial real estate will enter the fast lane of rapid development in this year.
In fact, under the combined effect of various factors in this special period, there is no appropriate standard for the rent of shops in Jincheng Building at this time. The owner has no standard, and the tenant has no standard. Everything depends on the psychological positioning of both parties.
Before entering the office of the boss of Jincheng Building, Xu Tingsheng grabbed Dad Xu and said firmly, "Dad, the rent can be accepted up to 150,000 yuan. The longer the contract period, the better. The most important thing is to fight for the payment method. Let's keep more money." funds."
When the father and son entered the office, the fat middle-aged man behind the desk greeted him politely, made tea himself, and then asked, "Are you two here...?"
Dad Xu got straight to the point: "We want to know about the rental situation of the shopping mall on the first floor."
The middle-aged fat man immediately became interested, and hurriedly asked, "What's your name, boss?"
"Miangui's surname is Xu."
"Oh, Boss Xu..." Boss Jincheng hesitated for a while and said, "Unfortunately, Boss Xu came a step late. After several rounds of bidding in the shopping mall on the first floor, we have basically reached an agreement with Boss Zhao of Nancheng Hotel."
Xu Tingsheng and Xu's father looked at each other and smiled knowingly. Boss Jincheng's words were half true and half false. He said that after several rounds of bidding in the mall, in fact, almost no one cared about it, but he and that boss Zhao had basically reached an agreement, but it was not groundless.
Of course, it's a deal if it's settled, as long as the contract hasn't been signed, it's the same as if it hasn't been negotiated, and from the perspective of rent, the boss of Jincheng must be dissatisfied.
Dad Xu said directly: "Is there still something to talk about?"
"There is, it's just..."
"Yes, yes, yes, we are here to raise the price."
This may be the most beautiful sentence Boss Jincheng has heard in this period of time. Jincheng Building suffered from SARS during the opening stage and was struggling. , it is no different from begging the other party to rent, the rent is crushed to death.
Now someone actually told him that we are here to raise the price.
The boss of Jincheng couldn't care about the government's scheming anymore, and said directly: "Do you know the rent we negotiated?"
Dad Xu actually only has a general understanding of the rent of the shopping mall, but he knows that once he asks, it will be difficult to hear the truth from the other party, so Dad Xu avoided the truth and said with a smile: "Yes, we can add 5000 .”
As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Xu Tingsheng once again looked at his father with admiration.
Boss Jincheng didn't hesitate anymore, and after a few polite words with Dad Xu, he picked up the phone and called Boss Zhao.
Putting down the phone, Boss Jincheng said to Dad Xu: "Boss Zhao doesn't really believe it, he plans to come over by himself, you see?"
Dad Xu took a sip of tea and said, "It's just right. I hope to finish the talk today and sign the contract as soon as possible. If that Boss Zhao waits a few days before coming to talk, we may not have time to wait."
"Boss Xu can rest assured that we will negotiate on the spot and sign the contract as soon as possible."
"Okay, then let's wait for Boss Zhao to come over."
The two chatted for a while, and Boss Zhao, who is over 50 years old, opened the door and came in, and said directly: "Boss Ye, are you looking for someone to play with me?"
Dad Xu didn't say a word, there's no need for him to speak at a time like this.
Boss Jincheng's face was a bit ugly, and he said directly: "Boss Xu's price is 105,000, which is 5,000 higher than Boss Zhao's. What do you think, Boss Zhao?"
"105,000?"
Dad Xu nodded.
"Then you sign it." Boss Zhao made a gesture to go out.
Dad Xu stood up straight away, and stretched out his hand to Boss Jincheng: "It's a happy cooperation."
"Pleasant cooperation."
Boss Zhao tilted his head and thought for a while: "Are you serious? 110,000."
Dad Xu didn't hesitate for a second: "115,000."
Boss Zhao was stunned for a moment: "Brother, your addition really looks like the entrustment that Boss Ye invited."
Dad Xu smiled and didn't speak.
Boss Zhao tentatively asked: "What if I add it to 120,000?"
Dad Xu was about to speak, but Xu Tingsheng tugged at the hem of Dad Xu's clothes behind him, Dad Xu hesitated for a while and said: "Boss Zhao really adds it."
This scene fell in the eyes of Boss Ye of Jincheng Building and Boss Zhao, each had their own speculations, but one thing was the same, that is, they both felt that once Boss Zhao raised the price to 120,000, Dad Xu would hesitate.
In fact, Xu Tingsheng did this on purpose to show them, and Xu's father cooperated very well.
"Boss Ye, Boss Xu, wait a minute, I'll make a call."
Boss Zhao left the room, made a phone call outside for three to five minutes, and came back and said directly: "120,000, that's what I said today, Boss Ye, Boss Xu, you can join hands to tease me, or it's true, I It’s priced up to this price, and there will be no increase if you die.”
Boss Ye of Jincheng Building was quite satisfied with the price in his heart. Of course, he looked at Dad Xu with gratitude and anticipation.
"Boss Xu, what do you think?"
Xu Tingsheng pondered in his heart for a while, his side came suddenly, and Boss Jincheng's phone call was also made in front of his father and son, which meant that it was almost impossible for him to collude with Boss Zhao.
On the contrary, the suspicion of colluding with Boss Jinchengye to help raise the price is much greater.
"Then, should the price be increased or not? If so, how?"
While Xu Tingsheng was still thinking, Dad Xu had already reached out his hand to Boss Ye in Jincheng: "125,000, I hope Boss Ye won't make things difficult for me."
This sentence is very strange. After the price increase, Dad Xu also said "don't embarrass me".
But it was such a strange sentence. In the ears of the boss of Jincheng, the meaning of the other party was: I have been very frank and straightforward. I hope you will stop hesitating and stop trying to push us up. If you still can’t If I am sure, I will be very embarrassed. If I am embarrassed, I may have to give up.
From Boss Jincheng's point of view, he naturally hopes to cooperate with the frank and straightforward Boss Xu in front of him, and this is the second time the other party has reached out. If he hesitates, it will be too embarrassing for the other party.
Xu Tingsheng watched from the side, and felt a little like laughing in his heart. Dad, the first batch of peasant entrepreneurs in the 1980s, had such an aggressive look, his aura was really strong.
The three parties were silent for a while.
Boss Zhao reached out to Dad Xu first: "Congratulations, Boss Xu, I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."
Father Xu replied: "Thank you, Boss Zhao, for letting go. If there is a chance in the future, please take care of Boss Zhao."
As if annoyed by Boss Zhao's preemption, Boss Ye from Jincheng Building quickly came over and held Dad Xu's hand, saying repeatedly: "Happy cooperation, happy cooperation."
Dad Xu and Boss Ye talked about the details for a while, including the length of the contract, the increasing ratio of the rent, the method of payment, etc., and Boss Ye discovered that this generous and straightforward Boss Xu can actually be very cheating and serious, but Could it be that he is going to pull Boss Zhao back now? Could it be that Boss Zhao is not cheating
Boss Ye chose to give in.
…
Xu Tingsheng and Xu's father each rode a bicycle, pedaling slowly.
"Dad, why do you need to add five thousand in the end? Isn't it okay to add one thousand and two thousand?" Xu Tingsheng asked.
"I have thought about this too, but I think if I only added one or two thousand at that time, this matter might not be settled. That boss Zhao would think that he can fight again. Although he said that he would not add any more , but such words are no different from farting, and besides, even Boss Ye from Jincheng may have a lump in his heart... What do you think?" Dad Xu explained.
Xu Tingsheng smirked and said, "Anyway, I don't understand, I just think that Dad was so powerful and powerful at that time, he overwhelmed the two bosses."
"Stop flattering", Dad Xu said with a smile, "You think I've been farming with peace of mind these past few years. Chance."
"As for your point that Boss Ye and Boss Zhao were suppressed, I think the first reason is that Boss Zhao himself is not very determined to win this mall. Be careful, secondly, that Boss Ye seems to be short of money, I guess he will be out of cash soon, or else with our little money, compared with him, a boss who builds a building, it’s nothing like that.”
After listening to his father's analysis, Xu Tingsheng suddenly felt that he didn't know his father at all in his previous life. His abilities and ambitions were far beyond his imagination.
"It seems that I can really be the rich second generation Young Master Xu with peace of mind." Xu Tingsheng thought happily.
"What are you laughing at?" Dad Xu asked.
"No, I just feel like you just now, dad, I've never seen that kind of aura before, and I haven't even thought about it." Xu Tingsheng replied.
Dad Xu smiled: "The group of people we first set up the factory are almost the same. One is hard work and considers himself not the boss, and the other is arrogant and unreasonable. At that time, the system was imperfect and there were many miscellaneous things. If the factory can stand, it depends on the momentum and methods of our bosses."
"This time we have money in our hands, and you paid me another 150,000 yuan. It's no wonder I don't have any momentum."
"Dad, do you trust me so much? I don't understand anything."
"Still pretending to be with your dad. To be honest, I wouldn't believe it if I were you before. However, you have changed a lot in the past few months. Ever since you said that when Wang Jinfang came to the house, I have started to feel this way. I feel, yes, the price of pork has indeed started to rise.
Then the matter of Banlangen and white vinegar, your grades, and the 300,000 you earned... including the way you called home when you were in the isolation ward and the way you pulled my clothes just now, I gave it all to Dad A feeling, you seem to have grown up suddenly, and it's not a normal growth, your kid has become a genius all of a sudden.
I have discussed this matter with your mother several times, but I couldn't figure it out, and then I simply stopped thinking about it. Anyway, you are my son, which will not change. "
Xu Tingsheng didn't explain anything, he just called out: "Dad."
Xu's father supported the handlebar with one hand, leaned the bicycle over, and touched Xu Tingsheng's head with the other hand: "Dad just hopes that you will not be too stressed, you can do many things you can do, and don't force yourself to do what you can't do. There is a dad , in Dad’s heart, nothing is as important as your happy life and health.”
"Um."
Xu Tingsheng nodded with a sob. Since his rebirth, he has been burdened too much. Family, friends, relationships, even teachers, classmates, almost everything in every aspect, he wants to take care of everything with his foresight, so, He worried about Huang Yaming and Fu Cheng's college entrance examination, he took care of Yao Jing and Wu Yuewei's feelings, he even cared about fighting for Lao Zhou, helping Zhang Xiuyun, reminding girls who failed their math exams, and worrying about Fang Yunyao's marriage happiness...
he is tired...
These words from his father were the best consolation. He made Xu Tingsheng understand that there would always be a mountain behind him, and at the same time, he did not have the absolute responsibility to bear so much.
"God gave me a chance to live again, if I can't even live happily, it's too bad." Xu Tingsheng thought.
"Dad, compare and see who is faster."
After Xu Tingsheng finished speaking, he ran away, Xu's father scolded and rushed to catch up. The two bicycles were speeding on the road... and went home.
