The Landlady and The Amnesiac

47

Everything is developing in a good direction.

Although there are other sugarcane stalls competing for business with them now, it has not had a significant impact. They earn hundreds of yuan in income every day. As summer comes to an end, they have also negotiated with three hotels to agree to place unmanned vending machines. According to Zhou Jianguo’s estimate, they will open a second store at the latest by the end of the year. Roughly calculated, the net profit will also be close to ten thousand per month, not counting the income from selling sugarcane.

Zhou Jianguo discussed with Luo Bei and decided that when they opened their third store, they would quit their jobs together and develop the unmanned store as their main business. At that time, they also planned to start an online store. Online shopping is also a big pie, and everyone wants a piece.

Although Luo Bei has become much more diligent now, she still sleeps an extra hour on weekends.

It was just 8 o’clock when her phone rang. It was Zhou Jianguo calling.

Shouldn’t he be at the construction site now?

She answered the phone groggily, but before she could say anything, she heard Zhou Jianguo say, “I’ll give you half an hour. Meet me on the first floor, and I’ll take you to see the car.”

Luo Bei immediately woke up. A few days ago, Zhou Jianguo said they made money from stocks and in a short while, they would have enough money to buy a car worth a hundred thousand yuan.

Are they going to see the car today?

This is too fast! It hasn’t been too long since she last discussed buying stocks with Zhou Jianguo!

While brushing her teeth, Luo Bei felt a bit skeptical about life. She had only graduated for a year, and now she was already developing until she could afford her own car? It’s unimaginable.

Will she be able to save up for a down payment and buy her own small apartment next year or the year after?

Just thinking about it is exciting!

Luo Bei went downstairs in just 20 minutes. Zhou Jianguo glanced at the time and sighed again, “If I take you to see the house next time, I think you will be even faster. You really need to be motivated to move.”

“That’s for sure.” Luo Bei only wore light makeup, but she was beautiful enough.

Neither of them had time for breakfast, so they had a snack at the stall. While eating steamed buns, Zhou Jianguo said, “What I’m thinking is, many car models now offer two years of interest-free financing. If we find a suitable car and the 4S store agrees to two years of interest-free financing, we can just pay a down payment. We can use the remaining money for something else. What do you think?”

Luo Bei nodded, “That’s fine. What do you want to do with the remaining money? Are you still interested in unmanned stores?”

“No, the development of unmanned stores has exceeded my imagination. I’m afraid that if I invest too much, it will be a headache if I can’t recover the cost later. This scale is already good for this stage. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. If we have the capital and ideas, I think we can develop another business.”

If someone else said this, Luo Bei would definitely think that this person is too unreliable and unstable. But when it came from Zhou Jianguo, she followed his train of thought, “What kind of business do you want to do?”

“Forget about the real estate industry if you’re not a big shot. We only have a few tens of thousands of yuan on hand…” Zhou Jianguo slowly thought, “Do you know that the consumption of fruits in our country is increasing every year? Now there are more and more fruit stores, what does that mean? It means that this is a huge market, but fruit stores cannot do without people to watch over them, and we don’t know much about this field.”
