Chapter 262: Finding a Shop (9)
At this moment, the lobby downstairs was bustling with people, every seat taken, and the guests were chatting and laughing, making it a lively atmosphere. The waiters were like industrious little bees, shuttling back and forth between the tables and chairs, busy serving dishes and clearing the table.
Zhu Yingying stood at the stairs, looking at the busy scene, and couldn't help but sigh: "This business is really good!"
Yunniang, standing by, beamed with a smile as she modestly replied, "It wouldn't be this good normally, but after the Zuifenglou on East Street closed, many of the customers who used to dine there switched to our place."
Zhu Yingying nodded and said thoughtfully, "I see. It seems we've lost a strong competitor." Her eyes rolled around, and she suddenly leaned close to Yunniang and asked mysteriously, "Do you want this competitor to disappear forever?"
Yunniang was confused by her words and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
At this moment, Yang Jiu, who had been silently listening to the conversation, spoke up: "Even if the Song family doesn't open Zuifenglou now, there's no guarantee that someone else will want to open a restaurant. Just wait and see, at the latest tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, someone will definitely come and buy this place and reopen it. Stores on East Street are the most in-demand."
Zhu Yingying shook her head and retorted, "What if we can stop other people from opening restaurants here? Then, wouldn't your Pinxiang Garden business continue to thrive?"
"Don't allow others to open a restaurant? Unless our Yang family takes over and opens the store ourselves. But..." Yang Jiu frowned, as if he had thought of some difficult problem.
Zhu Yingying quickly interrupted him: "Hey, who says we must open a restaurant, sister? In my opinion, the location of Zuifenglou is not suitable for opening a restaurant at all, but it can be used for other businesses. Such a good geographical location must not be wasted. Besides, I already have an idea in my mind about how to do it!" As she spoke, she smiled proudly.
Zhu Qingqing suddenly understood. Up until this point, she had been completely absorbed in planning the hot pot restaurant, giving no thought to other matters. Now, after Zhu Yingying's guidance, she instantly grasped that her sister was preparing for the future of opening a shop.
"That's right! This Zuifenglou is indeed not suitable for opening a hot pot restaurant, but it is perfect for selling the goods we have carefully prepared. After all, these things are unique and rare in the Great Zhou. If we don't open it on East Street, the most prosperous and noisy street in the capital, wouldn't it be a waste of such an excellent location and business opportunities?" Zhu Qingqing agreed with deep agreement.
Seeing her sister also approve of her idea, Zhu Yingying was extremely excited. She immediately turned to Yang Wu and said urgently, "We have to take over this Zuifenglou no matter what, whether it's by purchasing or leasing. There's no time to lose. Send someone to the brokerage to pay the deposit. If we're a little slow and someone else gets there first, it'll be a disaster!"
Zhu Qingqing also quickly added, "That's right! Let's finalize it first. I'll discuss this in detail with Team Leader Yang later. If he's not interested in cooperating, then this Zuifenglou will be considered our Zhu family's own business. At that time, the rent will naturally be borne by us."
Upon hearing this, Yang Wu did not dare to delay for even a moment and hurriedly called Yang Jiu, and solemnly instructed him: "Go to the pawnshop quickly and make sure to book this Zuifenglou. Never recommend this building to anyone else. Go quickly and come back quickly!" After receiving the order, Yang Jiu rushed out like an arrow and headed straight for the pawnshop.
