June 13th; Shafu District, Porcelain Street.

Gu Kaiwen has verified the changes in Xiaojing Lake. He is thinking about how to use the changes in Xiaojing Lake to gain more benefits.

Originally, the simplest solution should be to convert the Gu family’s old tea shop into a restaurant that mainly sells fish in Xiaojing Lake. However, considering the significance of the old tea shop to Yun Zhongyang, Gu Kaiwen gave up this idea.

"Master Yun, I'll go out for a walk." Gu Kaiwen greeted and walked out of the old teahouse.

Porcelain Street is the most famous "ancient town" tourist attraction in Shengqing City.

In recent years, the popularity of porcelain streets has increased year by year, thus allowing porcelain streets to be expanded again and again. Some residential areas have also become tourist attractions.

Gu Kaiwen is planning to find out if there is a suitable shop on the Porcelain Street. If there is a suitable shop, he doesn't mind renting it. Even if the price is higher, it is acceptable.

Nearly an hour, Gu Kaiwen did not find a suitable shop. When he returned to the old teahouse, he saw the neighbor next door receiving two young men wearing white shirts and trousers.

The summer in Shengqing City is very hot.

Even though it is mid-to-early June, the temperature has risen to a high level of more than 35 degrees Celsius. In this hot weather, almost 99% of young people wearing white shirts and trousers can be concluded that they are real estate agency staff.

‘Is Old Man Ding going to sell the house?’ Gu Kaiwen secretly thought.

Ding Ronghua is the boss of the Ding family’s tofu rice next to the teahouse. He and Gu Kaiwen’s grandfather are old friends. Gu Kaiwen did not eat less tofu rice from the Ding family when he was a child.

Gu Kaiwen walked into the front yard of Ding’s Tofu Rice. This front yard is a little smaller than the old teahouse, but it is also very small. Gu Kaiwen knew that the front yard of Ding’s Tofu Rice is 150 square meters, which is only 20 square meters less than the old teahouse.

"... Although my old house is only 60 square meters, its yard is 150 square meters. In addition, it is still on the street, so don't bother me, the old man!" Ding Ronghua was talking loudly.

Gu Kaiwen interrupted, "Old man Ding, are you going to sell a house?"

Ding Ronghua glanced at Gu Kaiwen and snorted, "Xiao Wenzi, what are you doing?"

"Tsk tsk!" Gu Kaiwen tsk twice, "Old man Ding, are you going to the United States?"

Ding Ronghua's son Ding Haoran studied in the United States and stayed in the United States after graduation. Rumors had married an American wife, which made Ding Ronghua show off again and again in the neighborhoods on Porcelain Street.

"Your Uncle Haoran's wife is going to give birth to a son. Your Grandma Zhou has already gone there first. I have to go there even after I have handled it." Ding Ronghua said with some exclamation.

Gu Kaiwen raised his eyebrows, "Are you not going to come back?"

"We two old guys should stay there to help them take care of their children." Ding Ronghua responded.

Gu Kaiwen did not ask too much or make any comments, "Old man Ding, how much do you plan to sell this house?"

"Hmm?" Ding Ronghua looked at Gu Kaiwen, "You guys have any ideas?"

"I have some ideas." Gu Kaiwen answered bluntly, "If the price is right, I will buy it. I will not sell it to anyone who is not bad, and my neighbor will be unlucky."

Ding Ronghua thought about it before narrating, "We are old neighbors. You know the situation here. The 150.24 square meters inner courtyard and an old house with an internal area of ​​60.8 square meters are 211.04 square meters."

Gu Kaiwen nodded in agreement, "Where is the price?"

"According to the current popularity of the porcelain street, it will definitely be hotter in the future." Ding Ronghua did not directly talk about the price, but he was laying the groundwork for pushing up the price.

The popularity of porcelain street is indeed getting higher and higher!

In 2010, the average daily passenger flow in the porcelain street was only about 10,000 people, doubled in 2012, and doubled again in 2016, reaching the height of the average daily passenger flow of 40,000 people.

This is a very scary data!

Simply put, the popularity of the porcelain street is about two-thirds of that of the Forbidden City.

Such a popular tourist attraction is also a tourist attraction within the city, so its real estate value will naturally not be cheap.

Ding Ronghua continued, "The net charge is 4 million yuan, and you will bear all the expenses."

Gu Kaiwen quickly thought about it. In the past five years, there has been no precedent for real estate transactions in Porcelain Street, and there is no reference comparison of transaction prices.

However, there are shops for rent on Porcelain Street, and the latest price is 1,200 yuan per square meter per month, which means that the annual rent of one square meter is 14,400 yuan.

Ding Ronghua's quotation is less than 20,000 yuan per square meter. Even though Ding's tofu rice is not in the golden position of Porcelain Street, the price is very sincere.

Gu Kaiwen thought about it for a while and nodded, "No problem! However, I need some time to prepare for 4 million yuan of funds."

"Xiao Wenzi, how much time do you need?" Ding Ronghua asked, "I have booked the ticket for No. 21, and I will reserve a few more days to get together with my relatives and friends in the future."

"Give me three days, and after three days, I will give you an answer whether it succeeds or not." Gu Kaiwen responded.

Ding Ronghua nodded, "I want it!"

"I'll prepare the funds first." After saying that, Gu Kaiwen turned around and left the inner courtyard of Ding's Douhua Rice.

After Gu Kaiwen left, the two intermediary officers said, "Old Master Ding, if you have a price of 4 million, I will sell it to you immediately."

Ding Ronghua said lightly, "210.04 square meters, priced at 5 million yuan."

"But...didn't you just sold 4 million?" the intermediary staff asked angrily.

Ding Ronghua sneered, "I watched that little guy grow up. My grandfather and I are friends of life and death. You have figured out the relationship and then talked about business."

After Gu Kaiwen walked out of the inner courtyard of Ding’s Douhua Rice, he took out his cell phone to make a call.

A few dozen seconds later, a lazy voice came over, "Old demon?"

"Second brother, are you still in Shengqing?" Gu Kaiwen added, "I am going to borrow 4 million from you. If you can lend it to me, you will say you are in Shengqing; if you can't borrow it, you will not be in Shengqing City, as this will not affect our friendship."

"Hmph!" Fan Yingjun snorted softly, "You kid, you deliberately disgusted me, right?"

Gu Kaiwen laughed twice, "Second brother, where are you?"

"I'm in Shengqing, Beiyu District." Fan Yingjun responded, "What do you want 4 million?"

"Buy a property." Gu Kaiwen responded truthfully, "You have been to the tofu restaurant next to my teahouse. Old Man Ding's family is going to the United States. I'm going to buy it to expand my business scope."

"What business scope are you going to expand?" Fan Yingjun said curiously.

"I'm ready to compete with your family!" Gu Kaiwen joked.

Fan Yingjun sarcastically mercilessly, "To be honest, I have a street for you, and you can't even compete with me!"

Fan Yingjun was not joking about this.

Fan Yingjun's family runs a chain of catering companies, including hot pot, high-end hotels, mid-range restaurants, and Chinese restaurants. There are at least 200 behemoths with a total market value of more than 3 billion.

"When will you ask for money?" Fan Yingjun added.

"Of course, the faster the better, so as not to change later." Gu Kaiwen responded with a smile.

"Wait a moment." Fan Yingjun remained on the phone.

About half a minute later, Gu Kaiwen received a text message reminding him that his bank card with the last number '2666' received a 4 million yuan transfer.

"Wow! Second brother, don't you come here for the 4 million business in person?" Gu Kaiwen complained.
Chapter completed!
