Zhang Kun said, “This small room can be divided into two parts and added with a wall. Some sundries or stocks are placed near the toilet in the inner part. The outer part is by the window and has sunlight. It can be used to rest.”

When the landlord heard that, he immediately said, “Yes, yes. You can do whatever you want with the store. As long as you restore it to its original state when your renting period is up.”

Li Xu looked at the landlord and said, “If we rent it, we’ll rent it for a long time. Can you lower the rental fee?”

Which landlord didn’t like a stable tenant?

When she heard this, she immediately asked with a smile, “How long do you plan to rent it for?”

Li Xu thought for a moment and said, “Ten years from now!”

The landlord’s smile became even brighter, “That’s fine. Then we ll calculate it by year.

…..

One thousand a year. It’s not expensive, right?”

It was indeed not expensive. This store was a little bigger than the one in their house.

The rent there was still a hundred dollars a month.

On average, one thousand a year for this store rental fee was less than a hundred dollars a month!

Li Xu was very straightforward. “That’s fine. It’s settled, then. Please prepare the contract, and we’ll first rent it for ten years and pay the rent once a year. How about it?”

The landlord was immediately surprised by Li Xu’s straightforwardness.

They had only been here for a few minutes, and it was settled just like that?

Zhang Kun was already used to it. He had long realized that Li Xu had always been very decisive in such matters.

Otherwise, how did Li Xu’s business get started?

She was hardworking, willing to endure hardships, and had courage.

“Okay, okay. I’ll prepare now. Please wait for a while,” The landlord said immediately.

“No rush. We’ll go back and get the money. See you in an hour!” Li Xu said.

After parting with the landlord, Li Xu and Zhang Kun returned to the shop and took out two thousand yuan from the small money box on the cashier.

One thousand yuan was used to pay the rent, and the other one thousand yuan was to go to the market to buy a few shelves later.

After taking the money, Li Xu went to Hu Chunli’s house.

Seeing that Li Xu and Zhang Kun knocked on the door, Hu Chunli was a little surprised.

“The shop location has been confirmed. If you are free, you can come with us to take a look. Later, your Brother Zhang and I will go to the second-hand market to take a look. We will get everything we need.”

Hu Chunli was a little surprised. “So soon?”

Li Xu nodded, “It’s just been confirmed. We haven’t signed the contract yet. We’ll go sign the contract in a while.”

Hu Chunli quickly said, “Okay, then wait for me for a while. I’ll go change my clothes.”

She opened the door, “Come in and sit for a while.”

Li Xu brought Zhang Kun into Hu Chunli’s house.

The house was still the same as before. Other than the sofa being changed, the furniture in the home was still the same as before.

Yang Jingyi was sitting on the sofa, watching IV while doing her homework.

When she saw Li Xu and Zhang Kun come in, she called out obediently, “Hello, Auntie, Uncle!”

Hu Chunli called her, “Jingyi, come in and change your clothes. We’re going out.”

When Yang Jingyi heard this, her eyes lit up.

She quickly put down her pen and went to the bedroom.

Li Xu felt a little sad watching this.

Hu Chunli must have kept her at bay and not let her go out. That was why she was so excited when she heard she was going out.

The mother and daughter changed their clothes very quickly. They changed in less than ten minutes.

The four of them arrived at the shop in less than an hour, but the landlord was already waiting.

She held a few pieces of paper in her hand. When she saw Li Xu coming over, she quickly handed them over as if afraid Li Xu would go back on her word.

Li Xu had already signed the contract once, so she understood the contract well. She read the contract carefully from beginning to end before signing her name and ID card number at the end.

Before they came, the landlord had already written her own information and signed it. So after Li Xu signed the contract, the contract was considered completed.

The landlord divided the contract into two parts, and each person kept one.

Li Xu also took out a thousand yuan from her pocket and said, “Please count it.”

The landlord immediately counted them one by one. Each of them had to be looked at in the sunlight to see if they were fake.

After confirming that the bills were real, the landlord handed the key to Li Xu. “This is the key to the main door. If you want to change the locks, change them.”

Li Xu took it, “Thank you!”

After handing over everything, the landlord took the money and left happily.

After the landlord left, Li Xu took the key and opened the door.

She told Hu Chunli about her previous thoughts, “Although this room is smaller, it can bask in the sun. When the time comes, the cash register will be placed here. When you turn around, you’ll see Jingyi.”

Hu Chunli was quite satisfied. She nodded and said, “It’s not bad. Suppose we put a small bed inside and a small table here. She can sit on the bed and do her homework.”

Seeing this, Li Xu was speechless, “Then that’s it. Tomorrow, I’ll get someone to build a wall in the middle and leave a small portion inside. Usually, I’ll put some random things or stocks inside. We’ll go and buy a small bed and a table for the outer part. Come, let’s measure the size.”

The last sentence was directed at Zhang Kun.

Zhang Kun had brought a meter with him when he came. The two of them worked together and quickly measured the size.

After measuring the size, Hu Chunli brought Yang Jingyi home, while Li Xu and Zhang Kun went to the second-hand market.

They were also quite lucky. They bought a few good-quality shelves, a cashier, and a few stools.

As for the bed and the desk for homework, Li Xu bought new ones.

After all, Yang Jingyi used to use good ones. She feared Hu Chunli would be upset if she bought second-hand ones.

After they were done shopping, the things were sent to the shop. Zhang Kun went to the market to find a worker and bought some bricks and cement. He made an appointment to work the next day.

It was already past six o’clock when they returned home.

The children had not returned home yet. Both of them were starving, so they simply made a noodle. Before they finished eating, Gong Wenbai sent the children back.

At the same time, he also brought back a piece of good news.

“The old man contacted a vegetable buyer and made an appointment to come over in a few days to see the quality of the vegetables. If it’s possible, we can work together for a long time in the future. They need a lot of them,” Gong Wenbai said.

Li Xu asked in surprise, “Really? Xiao Gong, please thank Uncle Qin for me. I’ll ask Li Yong to thank him in person another day.”

Gong Wenbai nodded. “Okay, I’ll definitely convey your message.”

After he left, Li Xu quickly took a few mouthfuls of rice and said to Zhang Kun, “Take them home. I’ll go to the shop and call Li Yong!”

Zhang Kun was about to say something when Ji Yuanyuan reached out and grabbed Li Xu’s hand. “Mom, I’ll go with you!”

Li Xu hurriedly grabbed Ji Yuanyuan’s hand and walked out.

Zhang Kun stood up, “The two of you go and wash your hands. After washing your hands, stay on the sofa. I’ll wash some fruits for you to eat.”

The two brothers obediently put down their school bags and went to the bathroom..
