Shenhao Started From Bragging About Paying Taxes

Chapter 423: Dilapidated Bookstore, Suitable Venue

This place is really good.

The area is very large, even larger than the first floor of the small white building of the doll bar. It is about 300 square meters by visual inspection.

And there are stairs in the middle of the first floor, and there is space on the second floor.

When Li Tianyu went up and took a look, it was so.

The space on the second floor is about the same size as the first floor, and it is also quite spacious.

The three returned to the first floor.

Guo Guang: “Boss, how about it? Isn’t it nice here?”

Li Tianyu nodded: “It’s true, so let’s talk about it with the boss now.”

Guo Guang is of course not surprised. Li Tianyu does have the meaning of doing things vigorously and resolutely. Whatever he wants to do, he will come.

Confident that it is not an ordinary foot.

Just now Li Tianyu discovered that there seems to be no one here. The three of them have been wandering here for a long time, let alone the boss, even the clerk did not see one.

If a few people come in, and they steal a few books, they don’t know.

But it can also be seen that this bookstore is indeed dying, and there are not many customers coming in.

Guo Guang went inside and called out the owner of the bookstore.

The owner is about forty years old. He looks like a big and thick man, and he doesn’t seem to be a bookstore at all.

Li Tianyu shook hands with the boss and introduced himself.

The owner’s name is Wang Shaohua, who is not a native of the imperial capital, but he has been in the imperial capital for 20 years, and he has opened this bookstore for about ten years.

Wang Shaohua started a complaint with Li Tianyu and the others.

Wang Shaohua: “When I first opened this bookstore, the business was very good. I can sell hundreds of books every day. I don’t even count any magazines or newspapers. But the past few years have really gone from bad to worse.”

When Wang Shaohua said this, he pointed to the situation in the store and sighed: “You have seen it, let alone people, there is not even a ghost shadow… Oh, sorry, I am not talking about you.”

Li Tianyu waved his hand to indicate that it did not matter.

It can be seen that Wang Shaohua still has feelings for this bookstore.

After ten years of persistence, everything around has long been used to it.

It is indeed helpless to sell this bookstore now.

Wang Shaohua invited the three of them to the back room and sat down: “To be honest, I am also very reluctant, but there is no way, how do you say it? Oh, yes, stop the loss in time.”

Li Tianyu nodded: “Boss Wang, I want to ask, is this store your own or rent it?”

In fact, when shaking hands just now, Li Tianyu had already obtained Wang Shaohua’s information, so asking this is also a “process.”

Wang Shaohua smiled: “Oh, of course it is rented. How can I have the money to buy the store here.”

Li Tianyu: “How long is the lease term?”

Wang Shaohua stretched out two fingers and said with a smile: “There are less than two years left.”

Li Tianyu, Guo Guang and Zhao Xialan all showed surprised expressions.

Guo Guang: “There is still so long? Boss, how many years have you rented?”

No wonder they were so surprised.

Such shops in the core area of ​​the Imperial Capital, especially in Wulitun, rarely rent for too long, and they are basically signed every two years.

This bookstore has been open for ten years. The owner can’t transfer it right after signing the renewal contract, right?

Wang Shaohua said embarrassedly: “I don’t want to hide it from a few people. When I wanted to rent this place, the price of land and shops were not too high, and it was catching up with the sharp drop in house prices, so I thought about signing a few more years. The owner actually agreed and signed it for twelve years at once.”

When everyone heard it, they were dumbfounded and dumbfounded.

But if you think about it carefully, it doesn’t matter.

The contract can be signed for twelve years, but the rent can be paid once a year.

After all, it was Wang Shaohua who took the big advantage.

The landlord’s heart is big enough, hasn’t it been thought that signing for such a long time will affect the rent increase?

Ten years ago, the rent here was terribly low compared to now.

Even if there is an annual rent increase clause in the agreement, the increase is minimal, usually 3% to 5%.

Compared with the rate of market rents in previous years, it is simply a drop in the bucket, not worth mentioning.

Wang Shaohua added: “The price he transferred is definitely higher than the rent, but it won’t be much higher, about 20%.”

Li Tianyu nodded, Wang Shaohua was quite honest.

Li Tianyu now has a principle, that is not to bully honest people.

He said: “That’s OK, I will accept this shop, and I will pay you the transfer price, but I have a condition.”

Wang Shaohua immediately responded, “You said.”

Li Tianyu: “Help me contact the owner. I want to talk to him in person.”

Wang Shaohua: “Oh, that’s better to say, anyway, when signing the transfer procedures, the owner must be there too. I will call him back, and then you can talk to him.”

Wang Shaohua added: “Actually, the owner is a very elegant gentleman, and he is very good at talking.”

Li Tianyu nodded: “Then choose a day instead of hitting the sun. Call the owner over today.”

Wang Shaohua: “Okay, I will contact the owner.”

Zhao Xialan looked dumbfounded.

Such a big thing is set, this boss is too embarrassed, right?

Although Li Tianyu is the owner of the doll bar, he is not necessarily a rich man.

As far as Zhao Xialan knows, many shops in Wulitun were opened by many people who went bankrupt in partnership.

There are also people who have borrowed millions of dollars and took huge risks.

But looking at Li Tianyu like this, it’s a bit like a rich second generation.

But why does the rich second generation want to open a bar here? Wouldn’t it be better to spend time and drink freely?

Zhao Xialan is really incomprehensible.

Wang Shaohua picked up the phone and dialed the owner’s phone.

“Mr. Feng, this is Wang Shaohua. There is a gentleman who wants to take over the shop. Let’s talk together. Do you have time today?”

“…Huh? You are here now? Do you want to talk to me about something?”

“Oh, that’s right, then we are waiting for you.”

Wang Shaohua hung up the phone and said to Li Tianyu: “Mr. Li, you are really a coincidence. The owner’s agent is here and will be there in a few minutes.”

Guo Guang asked strangely: “The owner’s agent?”

Wang Shaohua: “That’s right. The owner is now too old and doesn’t want to take care of these chores, so he entrusted an agency company, and Mr. Feng is the agent.”

Li Tianyu nodded, feeling strange in his heart.

Why is it so coincidental?

The agent surnamed Feng ran over, what do you want to talk about?

But since it’s coming, let’s have something to say and listen to what the other person thinks.

Several people were talking, and there was the sound of a car engine outside.

An Audi SUV stopped at the door of the store.

A chunky middle-aged man pushed the door and got out of the car.
