Infinite Anecdotes

She opened her mouth, and only said half a sentence, "But I..." Tang Cheng snatched the right to speak: "Alia, you can implement the matter of opening the store, and the money part I will do it, and you will take care of it, and at the same time, go to participate in some scripts that can form a team, which is definitely a good way of publicity for the reincarnation, and if you are busy, hire some natives to help look after the store."

"En." Aliya responded obediently, but there was not much interest in her voice.

What happened to me, Alia didn't understand

Obviously before becoming a reincarnation, her greatest wish was to open a store by herself and live a more relaxed life. For this reason, she did not hesitate to use her body to make a deal with Tang Cheng.

But now, in less than a month, she has completely turned from a tomboy into a woman, and all she thinks about is not wanting the man in front of her to leave her. She knows that her thoughts are very selfish, even unreasonable, obviously She is the thing that belongs to Tang Cheng, but she has the unrealistic idea of ​​occupying the master, but she still can't help but want to do this and look forward to it.

For such a self, Aliya felt a little disgusted.

After that, what exactly did Tang Cheng say to herself, Alia couldn't hear clearly.

After eating, the two of them bid farewell to the restaurant. According to Tang Cheng's previous plan, it was necessary for the two of them to go to the appraisal center.

For a long time, Tang Cheng's own cards have been handed over to his acquaintance Bart for identification, but considering that the old Bart's shop is a private shop after all, and Alia is a newcomer, after clearing the reincarnation script once, she must According to her habits and the problems she encountered in the script, she made adjustments and reinforcements, so it seems that the old Bart's shop has fewer choices, so Tang Cheng chose the most prosperous city in Shanghai, claiming that all kinds of products are available. There is no shortage of Tianfu Street.

Because of the relatively short distance, after Tang Cheng and Aliya came out of the restaurant, they directly boarded a sightseeing bus like a bus and moved towards Tianfu Street.

Don't think that there are no four-wheeled vehicles in this world because of the automatic path-finding aircraft. In fact, people who can afford to ride a hover car every time they go out are generally reincarnations.Although the Devil's City belongs to the awakened people's city, in fact, it still does not have a large population of natives, who are hired to do some boring mechanized work. After all, it is much cheaper to pay them than the awakened people.

And they are not archmages, they can fly and run by themselves, so the sightseeing car has become their best means of transportation, and some awakened people who have lived in the city for many years will also come here to save money. Take these, because it is different from the suspension car, it is a completely free public facility, of course, because of this, its daily flight and route are fixed, and it is accurate to the second.

I don’t know if it’s the time to get off work in the evening. There are a lot of people in the car, and the seats are all taken up, and those who can’t get a seat can only stand. Alia stands in a position near the window , with an iron pole, still listless.

However, this situation did not last long.

The reason was that a magic hand suddenly reached under Aliya's body while the car was crowded with people, and pulled the zipper off her fat times.Aliya was terrified, and when she hurriedly turned her head, she found that Tang Cheng was standing behind her and looking at her with a smile, and she immediately understood who the prankster was.

The resistance quickly subsided like a tide, but Aliya still couldn't help feeling shy, because being pulled away in a car with so many people, showing her body or something, is really a frustrating thing. Extremely shameful PLA

But for Tang Cheng, this is just the beginning——

He didn't care about the muddle-headed natives around him, and his unscrupulousness was even more outrageous. He approached Alia bit by bit, blocking her with his tall body.

it is more than words.

Alicia felt a little nervous.

Hey, just kidding, here is...

"Well!"

Aliya couldn't help letting out a whimper, and she quickly covered her mouth with her hand, but there were still a few fragmentary sounds pouring out of her fingertips and throat.

She stood on her tiptoes, straightened her back, and Tang Chengcheng lay beside her ear, and said slowly: "Seeing your depressed face makes me feel depressed too. What is there to think about in the future?" , it’s better to have fun in time.”

For a time, the wind and rain became stronger.

Alia's body kept trembling, and she felt that the eyes of her surroundings seemed to be looking at her. She obviously resisted this situation, but her body became hot uncontrollably, and she even felt waves of unprecedented pleasure .

Aliya didn't know how she made it through, she only knew that when she arrived at her destination, she was squatting on the ground and couldn't stand up at all.

109．shop

When Alia finally calmed down, the two of them wandered around the nearby shops.

The area of ​​Tianfu Street has always been the most prosperous area in the entire Demon City, and it is also a gathering place for various sensual places. For example, the Black Gold Bar that Tang Cheng frequented is here. At the same time, it has banks, exchanges, auction houses, And the largest commercial building in the entire magic city.

Tang Cheng introduced to Alia: "If you want to open a store in Shanghai, there are generally two ideas. One is to buy a piece of land around Shanghai, decorate it yourself, and do it yourself like Bart and most self-employed. The advantage of running a business is that it’s not a problem to have enough food and clothing, but this method is very network-intensive, and frequent customers require a lot of time and emotional investment, so I strongly don’t recommend you choose this.”

"What about the second one?" Alicia asked.

"And the second one," Tang Cheng laughed, leading Alia's eyes, looking at the dazzling shopping mall in front of him: "That's where a store is opened."

"Shop here!"

Alicia gasped.

According to her original thoughts, it was actually very close to the first one Tang Cheng said. After all, she was not deeply involved in the world at that time, and she had no concept of many things, but when he heard that Tang Cheng meant to be in this most prosperous shopping mall. When the store opened, Aliya couldn't help being stunned.

You know, the location of Tianfu Street is more than simple, it is an astronomical figure. Alia used to be a supporter, so I have heard anecdotes from many people who run handymen in the shopping mall. The monthly rent of any store here is calculated on dry basis, that is to say, you only start to calculate the profit after earning [-] points, otherwise, you will just wait to lose money.

But is the money really so easy to earn? At the beginning when Aliya sold herself to Tang Cheng for two hundred points, she already felt that it was a lion's mouth, but even so, it was only enough to pay a fraction.

If that's all, the problem is, it's just rent.

Aliya remembers very clearly the boy who brags to them back then, although that guy doesn't know where he heard it from, but what he said is quite similar

He said that in the commercial buildings on Tianfu Street, 10% of the total number of stores closed down every month, and nearly 50% of the stores are struggling to survive, that is, they are clenching their teeth but facing bankruptcy at any time, only 4% They are making money, and less than [-]% of them are making big money, but those are basically organized consortiums or wealthy businessmen, and some of them are even the managers of the magic capital themselves.

If it goes bankrupt due to poor management, it will be really bad luck. You have to pay for the dismantling of the decoration. Even if you used gold to build the floor, the other party will tell you to move away without any leftovers. Things are either depreciated or turned into rubbish. Many people who can't accept the ruthless reality have died of depression since then.

However, this deformed city will not be rounded up because of the withdrawal of these depressed people. In a few days, you will find that the storefronts that have just demolished the decorations and sent away the losers are full of ambitions. A new boss and a new facade were built.

Although the flow of people in this area of ​​Tianfu Street is first-class, the problem is that there are many shops here, and there are many kinds of shops. If you really want to go from the first one to the last one, it will take a day. Customers have so many choices, how to catch people's attention and fit marketing is the key point.

Taking the low-end and cheap route is destined not to survive here. Only by relying on high-end products that are not available in other stores can you highlight your own advantages and win a piece of life in this commercial building where the competition is as fierce as the battlefield.But this brings up another problem, that is, purchase channels and high-end products are not created for nothing, and require a lot of initial capital and channel construction.

After Aliya told Tang Cheng about these ideas, Tang Cheng's surprised eyes greeted him, and he praised her without hesitation: "That's right, you think quite far, so it seems that I I have more and more confidence in you. However, you also need to have a little more confidence in yourself and my vision."

Talking about it like this, Tang Cheng didn't give much explanation, just took Alia to continue wandering in the commercial building. Apart from appraising the cards obtained in the previous script at the beginning, Tang Cheng's wandering was not even worth talking about. Focus on purpose, just wander around aimlessly, and ask the price when you see a good product. If the price is right, you don’t even pay back the price, just buy it and leave.

Aliya really couldn't understand Tang Cheng's thoughts. In fact, he was really like a mystery many times when he was silent.

However, in this matter, Tang Cheng didn't have any tricks. When he finally stopped at the door of a store with the sign of transfer, Alia finally knew what he was going around just now, because The first thing he said when he walked into the store was: "This store is in a good location, let's knock it down."

Alia's expression was as surprised as that of the depressed female clerk in the store. The reason for the former is that the store is almost twice the size of similar stores and lacks of interest. This may be the main reason why it cannot continue to operate. The reason, and the latter was surprised that their shop transfer notice was posted two weeks ago, and no one has even come to inquire. The boss has lost a lot of hair because of this. It's gone, and she herself is obviously worried about her future, but at least she still takes the salary offered by the other party, so she comes to this sparsely populated store every day to be like this.
