Songjiang University of Technology, still in a coffee shop on Student Street.

Jiang Hao sat in the store, looking at the drizzle outside through the large floor-to-ceiling glass windows.

The entire store was empty except for the one female clerk who was quietly slacking off.

Suddenly, a white Volkswagen Golf stopped outside the coffee shop, parked directly in front of the coffee shop, blocking the entrance of the shop.

This should be the coffee shop owner he had an appointment with. It seems that he is quite familiar with the situation of his shop.

There weren't many customers to begin with, not to mention the rainy weather today, so we don't care about losing customers by blocking the entrance.

A young man in his early thirties walked into the store, wearing a simple black jacket, a white shirt underneath, and loose black pants.

The overall outfit is a bit old-fashioned, giving him a vibe that makes him look like someone from an institutional or public institution.

"I didn't expect you, Boss Jiang, to be so young!"

Seeing Jiang Hao's simple student-like outfit of a white sweatshirt on the upper body and a pair of simple jeans on the lower body, the coffee shop owner's eyes lit up.

"Xiao Lin, give me a latte."

While talking to the female clerk who was about 27 or 28 years old, he sat down opposite Jiang Hao.

"Boss Jiang is so young, I wonder what he does?"

"I am still a student, studying at Songgong University."

Jiang Hao drank his coffee and didn't hide anything. Every word he said was the truth.

"Boss Wang, you look very young. Did you just come here from work?"

"Haha! That's true. I work in a state-owned enterprise nearby."

"Let's not talk about this for now. Boss Jiang, are you planning to contract the store or buy it?"

Boss Wang took the coffee handed to him by the waiter and got straight to the point.

I just saw off the Hillhouse Capital team yesterday.

After Jiang Hao returned to school today, he was looking forward to a specific reply from Manager Gao.

Whenever I have some free time, I can’t help but feel itchy in my heart. I think of this coffee shop and I have the urge to buy it.

Finally, I called the boss's phone number that I had written down, thinking of asking about the price first.

However, as soon as he called, the person on the other end heard that he was there to discuss the store's business and immediately asked him to meet for a talk.

Within half an hour, they both arrived at the coffee shop.

"Boss Wang, is this shop yours?"

"That's right! I bought this shop in 07. I have the property certificate and everything. Are you considering selling the whole shop or renting it out?"

Jiang Hao originally thought that Boss Wang was just a tenant who opened a store and only had the lease rights to the store.

Now I didn’t expect that he is the owner of the store, which is convenient.

Considering how half-dead this store is right now, it would be really hard to keep it going if it weren't a no-cost business.

"What's the rent price? What's the purchase price?"

"If you want to rent, the rent for the nearby shops is 3,000 a month. I'll give you a cheaper price of 2,000 a month."

"If you buy it, this shop has two floors. I won't hide it from you. The property certificate shows that it is for one floor. The second floor was privately built by the previous landlord when I bought it."

"So I'll calculate it based on a single-story apartment of 68 square meters, 8000 per square meter, a total of 54 yuan."

"I'll round it off for you and make it 540,000."

Boss Wang quoted a series of prices without hesitation. It seemed that he had already made a plan in his mind and had been thinking about it for a long time.

As for the other possibility that had already been discussed with many people, Jiang Hao would never believe it.

It's just such a shabby place. Apart from him, I can't think of anyone else willing to take it over.

"Boss Wang, don't think you can fool me just because I'm a student."

"The rent for the houses around here is 3,000 yuan, which are near the side entrance of the school, near the entrance of Student Street."

"Your store has turned a corner and is already the store at the edge."

"If someone is willing to rent this room for 2,000 yuan, I suggest you rent it out immediately. I will not hesitate."

Jiang Hao rushed over from the laboratory and asked the owner of a pork trotter restaurant in a good location.

The boss didn't think much about his student-like appearance and told him the information directly.

The shop is only about 3100 square meters and the monthly rent is yuan.

As for the nearby areas, for example, the rent for the milk tea shop not far away next door is only 800 yuan per month.

Of course, the milk tea shop is a bit small, but its location is better than theirs, closer to the student flow in the central area.

From a business perspective, even if the rent of the milk tea shop is raised to 2,000, it will still be more profitable than if the rent is reduced to 800 here.

Except for Jiang Hao who knows that the land and shops will appreciate in value in the future, there is a 99% chance that doing business here will result in a loss.

"Also, the price of the shop you mentioned cannot be calculated based on the area. This is not a house. The price of a shop still needs to be calculated based on the rent and return on investment."

"The annual rent for your shop is at most 6 or yuan. I will calculate the rent for you based on years, plus an ideal % rent increase each year."

"The price of this shop is no more than 300,000 yuan. Considering the location itself, I don't think anyone would buy it even at 250,000 yuan."

After seeing that Jiang Hao was not the rich second-generation student studying at Songgong University as he had imagined, or the kind of student who opened a shop on impulse.

Boss Wang's original enthusiasm quickly dissipated, and after Jiang Hao pointed out the true situation of the shop, his face looked a little embarrassed.

At this time, he asked with gritted teeth.

"Then why did you buy this shop, Boss Jiang, knowing that it was not profitable?"

"I just think this store has a nice environment and it provides a place for me to chat with friends outside of school. I don't expect to make any money."

"If I rent, I need to sign a four-year contract to ensure that my school years are not interrupted. If I buy, the price must meet my expectations."

The price Jiang Hao had in mind was a monthly rent of around 1200 yuan, with an annual increase of no more than 4%, and a four-year contract as the standard.

This way he can come here and sit down whenever he has time, with peace of mind while studying for his doctorate.

He just likes this feeling of quietness in a bustling place, and with a rent of 1200, he wouldn't lose much even if he made a loss a month.

"If we negotiate the price today, Boss Jiang, can you just sign the contract and pay it off?"

"No problem for me. Once the deal is done and the contract is ready, I can transfer the money to you online or via bank transfer right now."

As he spoke, he showed the other party the balance information of 500,000 yuan in the text message.

Seeing that Jiang Hao did have this ability, Boss Wang's expression looked a little better.

"Boss Jiang, to be honest, I don't plan to keep this store any longer. Just tell me the price!"

The question of bidding was thrown back into Jiang Hao's hands.

To be honest, based on his psychological expectations, he can accept a store price of around 200,000 yuan. If it is higher, it would be boring.

As for the current land prices in Songjiang City, the prices of shops have increased slower than housing prices in recent years.

But the price surge in the future is certain. Under inflation, including the increase in consumption, the overall real estate market will experience a sharp increase.

Even though the location here is really bad, it will be no problem to sell it for three hundred thousand to five hundred thousand in a few years.

Although he valued the enjoyment that this store brought him, he would not be willing to accept a business that would result in a pure loss.

The store may not make any money, or even make a small loss, but the appreciation of the house can make up for it.

"I think if we pack up all the stuff in the store, I can offer up to 180,000 yuan."

He plans to continue running the coffee shop, so these equipment can continue to be used.

Just purchasing some equipment such as coffee machines, even second-hand ones will cost tens of thousands.

The price he quoted for the transfer of the shop was 180,000, which was a bit low, thinking that he wanted to give the other party room to bargain.

"Row!"

The expected price war did not occur, and what responded to Jiang Hao was Boss Wang's crisp and clear "OK".

As soon as he finished speaking, Boss Wang reached for the briefcase he was carrying and took out a standard contract from it.

He started filling in the amount and terms without a trace of the unhappy emotion on his face.

It's over! I shouted too loud!!! Jiang Hao couldn't help but feel regretful.
