On the 2nd of January, a report on consumers' rights protection in front of Guangmei Electric appeared in the relatively late page of the Evening News, but the report was relatively objective, and there were no comments attacking Guangmei Electric, and no subjective text was added. .

   As we all know, when the media wants to attack a certain business, word games can be played.

   For a foreign company like Guangmei Electric, it is already very rare.

   After another day, Lu Dong received a call from Fan Yunming. Fan Yunming used the relationship with Guangmei Electric to contact the Quannan Railway Bureau.

   Just in time for the liquidation at the end of the year, a few shops over there are vacant.

  Lu Dong can come and watch it anytime he wants.

   It may be very troublesome for many people, just like Lu Dong's contact with the Evening News Agency before, it may be a simple task for a certain group of people.

Lu Dong went there once before New Year's Day, and even when he asked and inquired, no one said that the lease of the shop was about to expire. He also called later and left his contact information. Boss Tie took the initiative to contact him, which is really unreliable.

  The so-called auction rental is obviously divided into people and goals.

   When someone who has a proper relationship comes here, naturally there is no need to take pictures. It doesn’t matter, and it’s not easy to take pictures.

   Open tenders for non-target units can declare their bids void, not to mention a small shop for rent.

   Lu Dong was a little surprised, Fan Yunming was too fast, Guangmei Electric just owed the favor, and then paid it back.

  There is a coming and going, and probably Guangmei Electric also has this consideration.

   Having said that, did the trio come with an assist from the gods?

  The railway station is one of the most crowded places in a big city, whether it is now or more than ten years later. Fan Yunming helped contact people, and Lu Dong rushed to the railway station. It is not too late for this kind of matter.

   After contacting the good people, I came to the management office of the railway station. A Director Xia led Lu Dong into the station.

  Go up from the elevator behind the security checkpoint to the waiting hall of the train station, which is similar to train stations all over the country. Outside the hall, there are various restaurants and shops selling specialty products.

   A few are clearly empty.

   Avoiding the crowd and coming to the left-hand side of the hall, Director Wang said simply: "The third, fifth and ninth in this row, the lease expired at the end of last year and did not renew. Which one do you want to rent?"

   Lu Dong said directly: "Director Wang, which is the biggest?"

   Director Wang glanced at Lu Dong. He was very young, but the person who introduced him was reliable, so he didn't say much, and replied, "No. 3 is the largest, with about 100 square meters, and the other two rooms are less than 100."

   Lu Dong spoke politely: "Can Director Wang take me to No. 3 to have a look?"

   Director Wang nodded slightly, came to Shop No. 3, opened the door, and went in with Lu Dong.

   The shops here are all one-story structures. The third shop is about 120 square meters. The neighbors on the left and right also sell catering.

   Lu Dong looked back at the door. Passengers were passing by in a shuttle. The flow of people here was much larger than that of Ximen.

  The shops on both sides of the hall are conspicuous enough, and there are quite a few people who drive to buy food and eat temporarily.

  Many people take long-distance trains to buy things and eat on the train. Western-style fast food is easy to carry, which is very suitable for railway stations.

   Lu Dong asked if he could do catering and got a positive answer. He simply said, "Director Wang, the rent here?"

People came through the relationship above, so Director Wang naturally asked for the lower limit, saying: "500,000 rent a year." For those who came through the relationship, he pointed directly to the point: "Generally people have to walk and rent, With the competition for auction and rental, the upper limit is not known, right? I will not tell you falsely, no matter how much rent is, it will be handed over to the station.”

   Lu Dong replied: "Okay, Director Wang, I'll rent this room."

   Director Wang nodded and said, "In this way, if you come to do the formalities in the afternoon or tomorrow, the sooner the better, the shop in the station will not be able to be kept."

   "I'll come over tomorrow."

   That afternoon, Lv Dong asked Du Xiaobing to enter the train station to inquire about the profitability of the store in various ways. He also found the phone number of the original renter of the third store, and contacted the other party and asked about it in general.

   The business here is good. Most of the people who can enter the railway station are related households, except for a few who use money to smash the door.

  Dry catering shops, as long as the prices and tastes are not too outrageous, the business is not bad.

   Of course, there are also those who lose money. After all, some people like to do a one-shot deal, but many people go in and out of the train station more than once or twice a year.

   The next morning, Lv Dong and Du Xiaobing came to the train station together, signed an agreement, paid one year's rent, and left the rest of the decoration to Xie Gong's company.

   Today, Lu's Catering can be said to be a super big customer on Xie Gong's side, and Xie Gong responds to every request.

   Lu Dong specially explained that the store must be renovated before the Spring Festival.

After leaving the train station, the two went to look at the Ginza Commercial Building in Beiyuan, which was under construction. Because Qiansheng Group rushed to work, it will be completed in the spring of next year, and the three connected shops facing Beiyuan Street have already been settled. For Lu's catering, only after the interior decoration is completed, the store can be officially decorated.

   In the future, the basement floor will belong to Ginza supermarket, part of the first floor and the second floor will be leased by Guangmei Electric Appliances, and the third and fourth floors will be Ginza shopping malls that sell clothing and leather goods.

   There are building materials market, furniture market, lighting market, as well as dense residential areas, etc., and the traffic is very large.

   Of course, in this era, Beiyuan Street has the most, or bathing centers, business clubs, KTVs and nightclubs.

   It is no exaggeration to say that this is the well-known red light district in Quannan.

  Young girls, even if they have a serious job here, if someone asks, don't say that they work on Beiyuan Street, otherwise it will be easily misunderstood.

   As for whether anyone cares...

  One of the largest places in Sennan, right in the middle of this street, is very conspicuous.

   When Lu Dong and Du Xiaobing drove away, they could see clearly that there was a bathing center to the east, a business club to the south, and a nightclub opposite.

   It seems that these are still very large in scale.

   It can only be said that the real work, the big guy comes out and eats, it is not easy.

   Back to the university town, the car went to the enterprise area in the west of the province, Lu Dong saw Song Na, Huang Juan and Natasha, and greeted Du Xiaobing to stop.

   The three stood at the door of the dormitory area of ​​a foreign-funded company, taking advantage of the off-duty time to do a questionnaire with the people who came over.

   Their target is very specific, regardless of whether they wear workshop work clothes, mainly to find those who sit in the office.

   As long as you observe carefully, it is not difficult to tell the difference. The difference between hairstyle and wear is quite obvious.

   This is also based on the reality. The wages of front-line workers are not high, and they often work 24-hour shifts. How can they have the time, money and energy to engage in various fitness exercises.

   On the other hand, those who can wear professional suits and sit in the office in foreign companies these days, even in a new development such as Qingzhao University Town, have guaranteed income.

  Song Na saw Lu Dong and waved her hand here, and continued to do her own business.

   Lu Dong didn't bother to go over and chatted with Du Xiaobing in front of the car.

  The sky was getting darker and darker, Song Na finished over there, and greeted Huang Juan and Natasha to come together.

   "Get in the car." Lu Dong opened the trunk: "Put things here."

  The three of Song Na put away the materials and sat together in the back seat. The three of them were all thin and not crowded in winter clothes.

  Du Xiaobing drove: "Have you been busy all afternoon?"

  Song Na replied, "It came out after two o'clock."

  It was cold and I was busy outside for half an afternoon. Huang Juan rubbed her hands coldly, and Natasha was also breathing frequently in her hands.

   Lu Dong is Song Na's boyfriend, very conscious: "What do you want to eat? Let's go to dinner together, I'll treat you."

  Huang Juan was familiar with Lu Dong and Song Na, and deliberately joked: "Lu Dong, you treat, Song Na pays the bill?"

   Lu Dong patted the pocket of his down jacket and said, "Don't worry, I have the money."

   Natasha said in slightly blunt Chinese: "You can eat anything, I will be cold and hungry."

   "Hotpot is the best day." Du Xiaobing held the steering wheel and said, "At this point, there must be no tables in the store."

  Since it’s getting really cold, Lu’s Hot Pot Restaurant is almost full at noon and at night, and on weekends and holidays, there are still queues.

   It is not uncommon for the nearby junior high school students to wait in line for half an hour on weekends.

   Lu Dong said that he wanted to treat guests, but Huang Juan and Natasha couldn't say much.

  Song Na's head has been so busy lately that she has little time alone with Lu Dong, and she can't think of where to go.

  Du Xiaobing suggested: "Let's go to the exhibition center. The hotel over there has opened a brazilian barbecue cafeteria. I heard from the people in the school that it is good. Let's try it?"

   Lu Dong looked back at the three ladies: "How about you?"

   "Okay." Song Na agreed.

  Huang Juan said with a smile: "I've only heard of self-help, but I haven't eaten it yet."

   Natasha is not a big Ivan, and her stomach is far from assimilated. Thinking of the variety of buffet options, she can choose at will, and agree to eat it.

   The hotel called Crowne Plaza on the side of the Convention and Exhibition Center is doing high-end business. High-end means high prices, which also means that there are not many people.

  In this day and age, a self-service meal costs 99 yuan per person, and most people won’t come to eat.

   There was no accident. Lu Dong didn't have enough cash with him. Fortunately, he could swipe his card instead of paying for Song Na.

   There were really not many people in the restaurant. Five people found a large table and went to get food.

  Song Na specially walked with Lu Dong and asked, "I've been so busy these days that my head is dizzy, so I didn't ask you, how is Quannan doing?"

   "Very good, everything went well." Lu Dong said simply: "I signed a contract with the train station today, and Burger King will soon open a shop at the train station."

   He turned and asked: "On your side, market research has been done for more than a week, is it feasible?"

  Song Na said while picking up the food: "As far as the current statistics are concerned, the feasibility is relatively high. I have done more than 300 questionnaires for the target group, and many people are interested."

   Lu Dong reminded: "It is a very optimistic estimate that one-tenth of those who are interested will pay."

  Song Na said: "I understand that fitness is a little worse in terms of questionnaires, but Sanda and aerobics are quite popular."

  Lu Dong nodded: "When the time is right, you can add taekwondo appropriately."

   Back at the dining table, the five of them ate and chatted, mostly talking about the questionnaires Song Na and the others had taken in the past few days.

  Huang Juan and Natasha have also been doing it, and they also think it is quite feasible.
