Chapter 577
Chapter 575 new goal
After returning to Binhai to take over the pet shop, Zhang Zi An has set two small goals. The first is to gain a firm foothold in the pet industry. The second is to slap some money and renovate the store. Fortunately, these two small goals have been achieved.
Now he wants to set a third small goal, which is to introduce more pets, especially rare pets that ordinary people rarely see, and let pet shops be known by more people.
The singular pet shop is no longer a small shop that has never been seen before. The reputation has gradually spread, and even spread across the sea to the United States and Fuso. More and more people know that there is such a unique pet shop in Binhai.
He could have chosen to be comfortable with the status quo, as long as he continued to operate, at least he could not wear it.
However, many customers come here, but they are defeated, because there is no pet they want in the store, which makes him feel that he missed N billion!
So he made pains and decided to expand the scale.
Of course, it is risky to expand the scale, but even if it is a loss, it will be a big deal for him to go back to the company and go to work for nine to five.
The store can also be rented, and the advantages and disadvantages are the same. The only principle is to try to get closer to the pet store. The prices and rents around the Spring Festival are in a low period. He doesn’t want to drag on any more.
The aunts of the neighborhood committees go all the way to collect the protection fees all day long… No, it is the management fee. They should be familiar with these news, and they usually gather in the neighborhood committee to talk about gossip, and there is something in the street that can be known for the first time. So, Zhang Zi An asked the valley grandma about the situation.
Grandma Gu didn鈥檛 quite believe it at first. She lived on this street for a lifetime. She used to watch Zhang Zi An鈥檚 parents start to run pet shops early, and did not make any money other than paying off the mortgage. Zhang Zi An After taking the pet shop for less than half a year, the kid wants to expand the scale of the store. I still want to run without learning to walk?
“Forget it, Xiao Anzi, you went out to college and didn’t come back for a few years. Now it’s hard to come back. It’s also the fall of the leaves. If you listen to your grandmother, don’t think about it. Anan will manage your three-acre land.” I will buy a car for some money. After two years, my grandmother will introduce you to a package that you are satisfied with. I will get married and have a good time. Then I will have a handsome niece or a big fat boy. If I can evaluate the May 1st model of labor in Dongcheng District. You haven’t lived in your life…” Gu Grandma said with a heavy heart.
Gua鈥檚 grandmother thought that she was screaming, and Zhang Zi An couldn鈥檛 help but laugh. I don鈥檛 know what to say.
Standing on the perspective of her older generation, she is right, and many young people are also pursuing this, and his wife and children are hot.
But Zhang Zi An doesn’t think so, and his expansion is not entirely about making money. He has seen many rare and rare pets from books such as “Rare Pets”, and often feels that he can’t be too addicted. If you can introduce these pets into the store, even if it is not for sale but just for display, you can Bring a great satisfaction.
“I don’t have three filial pieties, no one is big. Grandma, I look at Xiao’an, you grow up day by day. After this year, you are one year older, but you don’t even have an object. Grandma, I look in my eyes, eager in my heart. ……”
As a big BOSS of the neighborhood committee, Gu Grandma is particularly able to talk about it, and the door is big. Zhang Zi An quickly stops her from continuing. She laughs and laughs: “Grandma, I still have something, you tell me, there is no shop for rent nearby or Transferred?”
“Hey, you kid, how can you not obey? Grandma, I am for you…” Grandma Milk shook her head in a pity, and sighed and said: “To transfer… Hey, it seems like the store next to you.” Want to transfer, or do you ask in the past? But my grandmother still advises you to think twice before doing things…”
Zhang Zi An heard it, next to the store? He said that he still knows the owner, but has never heard of the store to be transferred?
“Valley Grandma, are you sure? I live next door, why haven’t you heard about Tao Te’s transfer?” he asked suspiciously.
“Hey! You still don’t believe your grandmother? Grandma, can I lie to you?” Grandma Gu is not happy to blame, “I didn’t go to your store a few days ago to collect the health and management fees for this quarter. By the way, Going to Xiaotao鈥檚 shop, he didn鈥檛 pay the living and said that he planned to transfer the store. Who would buy me and let me go to it… Do you say this is not good? Xiao Anzi, you give the grandmother a review, The whole street has been handed over, and he will not pay. Isn鈥檛 this a nail house? Let my grandmother do the other people鈥檚 ideological work in the future…鈥?/p>
“I know, thank you Valley Grandma!”
He didn’t wait for her to finish, and quickly took the road.
People like Ms. Gu鈥檚 grandmother always like to teach the younger generation with the attitude of a life tutor, and show that 鈥淚 have eaten more salt than you have ever eaten鈥? 鈥淒o not eat the old man鈥檚 words, and suffer losses in front of you鈥?In fact, they don鈥檛 know that they are already behind the times. The neighborhood committee can only collect cash for health and it is a typical example.
She is really good for Zhang Zi An, but the thoughts of the older generation can only be defended and can’t be made. In this ever-changing era, many things are like sailing against the water. If you don’t advance, you will retreat. If she is to decide, she will certainly not like the Zhang Zi An to pay more attention to the introduction of automatic dog washing machine, this opportunity is missed.
Zhang Zi An is too lazy to listen to her, not too lazy to explain to her, trotting away from the neighborhood.
The south side of the singular pet shop is next to a shoe store. The history of the shoe store is longer than the singular pet shop. It seems to have been opened since the 1980s. It has been operating until now, and it is five years to see it. Ten years old shop, rounded up to a hundred-year-old shop, Zhang Zi An never thought that this shoe store would be transferred.
Lu Yiyun saw that Zhang Zi An came back, but did not enter the store, but turned to the side, and blinked in confusion, because Zhang Zi An rarely went to the neighbors.
Zhang Zi An walked to the door of the shoe store. He was too familiar with this shoe store. When he was young, the new shoes of the whole family were basically bought from this store, so they usually get along well. The quality of the shoes is generally, the parents buy shoes from here mainly to take care of the neighbors’ business, and secondly, the quality problems are easy to replace.
The gold-colored signboard on the dark red floor reads 鈥淶honghua Road Shoe Store鈥? The old door face has not changed for at least ten years. The layout of the shop is almost the same as that of the strange pet shop, but the area is bigger, the first floor is the shop, two The building is a residential and warehouse.
The floor-to-ceiling glass door has been dirty because it has not been rubbed for a long time. Like the natural and pollution-free protective color, the store is almost invisible from the outside, but since there is no lock, the owner should be inside and not go out.
Zhang Zi An looked up and down carefully, still did not see the “transfer” brand, had to push the door and see.
“Welcome, take a look.”
There were no guests in the store, only a man who was the owner of the store turned his back to the door and squatted on the floor with a shoe box.
This man is called Xie Tao. He is a few years older than Zhang Zi An. He knew it when he was young, and Zhang Zi An wants to call him a brother.
There are many types of shoes in the store’s shelves, ranging from a few dollars of slippers to hundreds of dollars of domestic famous brand shoes, but the style is slightly older, as if most of them were popular last year or even the previous year. .
“Tao Ge, it is me.”
Xie Tao turned his face. “Hey, isn’t this Xiao Anzi? Come in. Is there something?”
Zhang Zi An smiled and didn’t know how to speak. If it is a stranger, but an acquaintance can’t directly ask you if the store sells or sells it?
“Tao Ge, I didn’t seem to open the door recently.” He found an excuse to chill.
Since he returned to Binhai City to take over the pet shop, whether it is cloudy or rainy, whether it is business or not, it will be open for business. On the other hand, this shoe store is almost three days fishing for two days. The days when the door is closed are more than the days when the door is opened. Much more.
“Business is not good, can’t make money, now people are buying online.” Xie Tao took the ash on his hand and stood up, kicked the shoebox aside, and smiled helplessly. “And my mind is not here. I got married a while ago.”
“Tao brother, why didn’t you tell me about such a big thing? Too much to see it! I want to drink your favorite wine too.” Zhang Zi An said with regret.
Xie Tao licked his hair and said with a sigh of relief: “It鈥檚 the wedding that you did when you came back. I wanted to invite you, but… I鈥檓 still thinking about it, don鈥檛 bother you.鈥?/p>
Zhang Zi An stunned, and this reflected what he meant. The day when Xie Tao was making a drink was the time when Zhang Zi An prepared a funeral for his parents, so he was not invited. Xie Tao expected that he certainly did not have that feeling. Even if he was invited, he would not come, so he did not inform him and let him calm down.
He nodded and said that he understood, “I have to make at least a gift. Where is the scorpion?”
“Don’t see it.” Xie Tao shook his head. “Your nephew is a foreigner. We are married to Fengzi. Isn’t it popular now? After we have finished drinking, we will go to honeymoon, then we will have children and return home. What is the month, very troublesome, I am too tired to run at both ends, and earned a few dollars, just took a break. After the break, I found that the business in the store is even worse, and many old customers have nowhere to go.”
Zhang Zi An feels the same. In the past, the pet shop had been tepid under the management of the parents, but it was still good to maintain normal business. As a result, after the business went out of business, it was reopened, and the old customers ran away… although the pet shop originally had no old customers, but The impact of going out of business is real.
At the same time, he also knows why this shoe store always does not open the door. It turns out that Xie Tao has married a foreign wife, and has experienced a series of life events such as honeymoon trips, childbirths and months. It seems that Grandma Gu said this The rumors that the shoe store is to be transferred may not be groundless.
