After entering the cake shop, Li Mo bought a mousse cake and sat at the counter to chat with the shop owner.
"Hey! I really regret coming here to open a cake shop!"
"Not only is the rent expensive, but the competition is fierce! If you want to survive, you can only fight on price."
"I have been suffering from insomnia for many days. I am really exhausted mentally and physically. I feel like my hair is about to fall out."
The shop owner is a young woman in her thirties, with long, straight, wheat-colored hair. She is very beautiful.
But Li Mo could tell that her mental state was indeed not good.
Li Mo cut off a small piece of cake with a spoon and put it into his mouth, knowingly asking:
"Oh, are there several cake shops on this street?"
The landlady glanced at Li Mo and spoke quickly:
"Are you a freshman? This street, including my family, has a total of three cake shops!"
Speaking of this, the landlady sighed again:
"Oh! Actually speaking, three stores are not bad. After all, the business district of the university town is so big, and you can still make some money."
"But a while ago, a new store opened in front of us. It didn't follow martial ethics at all and just started a price war to attract customers!"
"For the same item, he directly discounted our price by 20%. Isn't this ridiculous? Isn't it clear that he will kill us!"
As soon as she talked about the newly opened cake shop, the proprietress became angry and kept chattering:
"If we want to retain customers, we can only enter into a price war with them, but in this case we will hardly make any money. It's meaningless!"
"So I really don't want to do it anymore, but the contract I signed with the landlord only expires in one year, and I can't sublease it."
"I've had the sublet sign hanging by the door for two months, but no one has even asked."
"I'm really anxious. Even my aunt didn't come on time. Alas!"
While Li Mo was eating the cake, he quietly listened to the boss's wife's complaints.
When he was sweeping the street that day, he saw that this place was sublet, but he didn't consider it.
This store is too small, only 15 square meters when it is full, and it is also long.
This limits its business use, and it is normal for no one to care.
"Boss, don't be too angry. Since making cakes doesn't make money, then we can do something else."
"Oh, do something else. I have no energy to do anything now."
The landlady waved her hands listlessly:
"And this shop is not suitable for doing anything else, or maybe switching to a milk tea shop."
"But this street is full of milk tea shops. If you open one, you won't make any money."
"Alas! I don't have any extravagant expectations now. I just hope that a big grudge will stupidly take over my store. That's enough."
Li Mo chuckled and pointed at himself:
"Lady boss, do you think I'm the stupid, resentful person you say you are?"
The landlady heard this and was a little confused:
"What do you mean?"
"I mean, I want to take over your store, but the price, hehe..."
"..."
Half an hour later, Li Mo and the landlady jointly drafted a contract, which only required signatures and fingerprints.
Based on the fact that the proprietress just complained to Li Mo for half an hour about all the shortcomings of this store.
Li Mo bought everything in this store at a super low price.
Of course, this does not include the boss lady.
However, the boss's wife was pretty good, and she didn't blame Li Mo too much for his treachery. She just punched him twice in the chest in a symbolic way.
The boss lady is actually happy to be finally out of the sea of suffering.
Then, Li Mo called Chu Fuling.
When Chu Fuling walked briskly into the store, Li Mo said straightforwardly:
"Little fool, as your best friend in this life, I would like to express my gratitude today and give you this cake shop, okay?"
"Okay."
Chu Fuling nodded happily without any hesitation.
As long as it's from Li Mo, she doesn't care what store it is, she just wants it.
The thirty-year-old young lady boss stood next to the two of them, her eyes widened.
Oh, why don't you just kill me with a knife, just for fun?
Okay, okay, as a thirty-year-old sister, I have really been knocked down by you, and the blow is worth it.
But your girlfriend is really beautiful too! No wonder you're willing to spend money on her without blinking an eye.
Little brother, you are so inhumane, do you have any brothers or cousins at home? Introduce it to me.
"Boss lady, boss lady? Boss lady!"
"Ah, what's wrong?"
Li Mo shouted three times in a row before the landlady was brought back to reality.
"Are you doing it all by yourself? No shop assistants?"
"There is one clerk, but the business is not good, so she is not allowed to come to work. She works for half a month and takes half a month off."
"Oh, that will save trouble. Just call someone over and let her recognize the new boss."
"Okay, I'll call her."
Ten minutes later, a tall and thin girl walked into the store, and the proprietress immediately introduced:
"Well, her name is Wang Fang, and she lives near here."
"Wang Fang, they took over the cake shop from me, and they will be your new boss from now on."
After a brief acquaintance, Li Mo transferred the money to the proprietress at once and asked Chu Fuling to sign the contract.
Chu Fuling didn't even glance at the contents of the contract, and directly signed her name and pressed her thumbprint at the end.
She completely believed in Li Mo. Even if Li Mo sold her, she would probably be able to sit by and help Gaga count the money.
Then, Li Mo called Ke Xia and asked her to immediately draw up a naming agreement worth 40,000 yuan.
Seeing Chu Fuling signing Party A of the naming agreement, Ke Xia was a little confused:
"Boss, I don't understand. What's the point of naming yourself?"
Li Mo chuckled:
"Of course you don't understand. I'm playing hard to get."
"Our website has just started, so merchants don't have enough confidence in us and don't dare to spend money on it."
"But our naming fee cannot lower the standard, so we can only use this method."
Li Mo asked Ke Xia to sit down and took a piece of cake from the refrigerator for her to eat.
"The cakes in this store actually taste very good, but they don't do much business because they don't want to lower prices."
"So I want to use this website activity to expand the cake shop business."
"The business of this store has increased. It will not only justify the popularity of our website, but also dispel the doubts of those merchants."
“And it also allows me to make money from this cake shop, killing two birds with one stone, so why not do it.”
Hearing this, Ke Xia nodded with some understanding. Just when he was about to speak, he was overtaken by Chu Fuling on the side.
Chu Fuling clasped her fingers and spat out softly:
"Inflating the naming fee will allow the cake shop to turn a profit and further increase the website's popularity and user base."
"Kill three eagles with one stone."
