Chapter 304 Buying a Facade
Thinking in his heart, Bai Xiaobai connected to Ah Hua's call.

"Hello, Ah Hua, I returned to Jianghai yesterday." After answering the phone, Bai Xiaobai directly stated that he was already in the store.

"Okay, so are you free this afternoon? I'll find you in your store."

"Okay. Ah Hua, do you think it's three o'clock? I'll wait for you in the restaurant."

"Okay, see you then."

After hanging up the phone, Bai Xiaobai quickly got up, went back to the bathroom, brushed his teeth and washed his face, went downstairs into the glass kitchen, and prepared a small fresh meat wonton, served with a special golden butter stick for breakfast.

It's already a quarter past ten, so it's not too early.

After eating and drinking, Bai Xiaobai went out to buy things at WEM, the largest supermarket on Chaotianmen Street.

The food in his family has not been replenished for five days, such as pure milk, bread, and fruit can be bought as a spare, and there are some trivial daily necessities, which should be replenished at once to save trouble.

In WEM, a large supermarket, Bai Xiaobai pushed a small cart, walked among the shelves, and was frantically sweeping all kinds of goods.

the same moment.

On the WeChat official account of Xiaobai Restaurant, fans began to leave messages frantically in the comment area of ​​the graphic message about the temporary closure of the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival.

"The latest gossip, according to the owner of Wang Wangle Pet Shop, Boss Bai went to pick up his pet dog home last night, so Xiaobai Restaurant should be officially open today."

The owner of Wang Wangle Pet Shop is a girl who is also a loyal customer of Xiaobai Restaurant. She undoubtedly revealed the news that Bai Xiaobai took over Xiao Hei in WeChat last night, and it has now spread in the comment area of ​​the WeChat public account.

Immediately follow the review of this comment.

"True or not, before the closure of the business, Boss Bai said that he would resume business on the afternoon of the [-]th, and he would send a message. There has been no news since he refreshed all this time. I guess Boss Bai hasn't had enough fun yet."

"I went to Xiaobai's restaurant this morning to take a look, but the shutters were still closed, and there was no one in sight. Boss Bai probably hasn't come back yet."

"I remember that some diners have Boss Bai's phone number. Who can call and ask Boss Bai for a letter, when will his shop officially open? It's been five days, and I don't think about it. My daughter-in-law said that I lost five or six catties."

……

The comment section of the WeChat official account was wildly discussed, but Bai Xiaobai didn't know that when he was scanning the goods, the phone in his pocket rang.

I thought it was the call from Grandma Ahua.

As a result, he picked up his phone and looked at it.

No.

It was Lan Weihao's call.

"Hey, Brother Little Wolf, what's the matter?" Bai Xiaobai asked enthusiastically after answering the phone.

"Brother Xiaobai, when will your store open? The friends on the WeChat official account are very anxious. They want me to ask for confirmation. In fact, I am also very anxious. I especially miss the imperial rouge rice in your store."

What Lan Weihao said surprised Bai Xiaobai.

Although there are quite a lot of regular customers in the store, Dulan Weihao was the only one who called to ask about the opening hours.

"Brother Wolf, I'm shopping in the supermarket now, and I have something to do at noon, so I can't open. It is tentatively scheduled to open at 05:30 tonight."

Lan Weihao happily said on the other end of the phone, "Alright, then I'll go to your restaurant for dinner tonight."

"Okay. See you later."

After hanging up the phone, another call came in immediately.

It was an unfamiliar number.

As soon as Bai Xiaobai connected, he was also the diner who asked about the opening hours.

The key point is that Bai Xiaobai has no impression of this diner.

In short, the next few calls were all about business hours, which made Bai Xiaobai sweat all over his face.

There are even calls harassed by flagged advertisements...

In view of the enthusiasm of the diners, the patient Bai Xiaobai had no choice but to purchase products while opening the WeChat official account and sending a message, stating that it was tentatively open at 05:30 in the evening.

After purchasing the required items, Bai Xiaobai went to the WEM counter to handle the free home delivery service as usual, and then easily left the supermarket empty-handed.

It was lunch time, so Bai Xiaobai ate lunch outside, and then returned to the store for a lunch break.

After the lunch break, it was already 02:30, Bai Xiaobai changed into clean clothes, washed his face, tidied up his messy hair after a rest, and then went downstairs to wait for A Hua Po.

When it was close to three o'clock, A Hua Po called.

Bai Xiaobai opened the shutter, just in time to see Ah Hua standing outside the door.

Ah Hua is very old, and after not seeing her for a few years, the wrinkles on her face became more and more dense, like dead bark, even thick powder putty could not cover up the deep traces of time.

Although the white hair was not dyed black, it was maintained quite shiny.

His face was still the same as before, with a pair of large round gold-rimmed glasses, quite artistic.

Although her face is old, from the energetic eyebrows and eyes, one can roughly imagine her delicate and beautiful face when she was young.

The aunt is wearing a simple and elegant old man's dress with blue background and white flowers, and elegant black cloth platform shoes on her feet.

As soon as she entered the door, she said, "Little white boy, long time no see."

It's true that I haven't seen him for a few years, and it's been a long time since anyone called Bai Xiaobai "Little White Cub" in person.

Xiaobaizai is Bai Xiaobai's nickname.

Except for the dead parents, only A Huapo would call him that.

Bai Xiaobai immediately warmly greeted Ah Hua to sit down, and then slightly pulled down the small half of the rolling gate, indicating that the store was temporarily closed.

Because Ah Hua brought her own mineral water, Bai Xiaobai didn't pour water for her.

After sitting down, Bai Xiaobai asked directly, "Grandma, it's been a long time. Is there anything special about looking for me this time?"

Ah Hua doesn't like to beat around the bush either, she cuts to the chase and explains why she's here:

"Little Baizi, it's like this. I'm going back to the United States with my daughter next month, and I probably won't be going back to Jianghai in the future. I'm thinking of selling my facade, like asking if you want it first. "

The facade that Ahuapo is talking about is the restaurant that Wang Tuzi originally ran.

No wonder Baldy Wang suddenly stopped opening a restaurant a month ago and went to work as a chef at Hengyuan Hotel. At that time, Bai Xiaobai felt that something was wrong.

Now that the aunt said it, some things are reasonable.

It should be that Grandma wanted to sell the front door next door, but Baldy Wang couldn't afford it, so she didn't open the restaurant anymore.

Maybe it's that simple.

But having said that, there are some things that Bai Xiaobai can't figure out right now.

Although the location of Chaotianmen Street is not very good, but in first-tier cities, even if there is a facade on a small arterial street, you can completely rely on the facade to collect rent, and you can easily have a stable extra income for the rest of your life.

Very few people are willing to sell the facade directly.

Or there are special reasons, or simply want to sell and go abroad permanently.

Bai Xiaobai didn't think too much at the moment, and didn't ask the specific reason, but said directly, "Grandma, tell the truth. If your price is right, I will buy the facade next door to you."
