An ordinary person’s life is nothing more than birth, aging, illness, and death, involving clothing, food, housing, and transportation. Now, Ye Qiu is starting to lay out the various aspects of ordinary people’s lives. In terms of clothing, he’s investing in Louise in France; for food, he has opened the Imperial Cuisine Restaurant, coffee shop, and supermarket. As for housing, it hasn’t been included yet, nor transportation.
However, in terms of birth, aging, illness, and death, he has already invested a large amount of money in an antiviral research laboratory and also in educational institutions, which are institutions opened by Liu Lingxiu’s uncle.
He believes that in a few years, even if he does nothing, he will still have a steady stream of inco.
After chatting with his father in the yard for more than half an hour, returning to the hall, Xiaomai was still sitting there.
"Xiaomai, go to sleep."
Ye Qiu was planning to take a shower and then continue his cultivation.
In Jamaica, he had already broken through cultivating into the ninth-layer early stage of Qi Refinent Realm, and he believed that soon, he would enter the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
After taking a shower, he returned to his room, turned on the air conditioning, and moonlight outside the window shone in. Ye Qiu picked up the black invincible storage ring inside his drawer and indeed found it still showed no reaction, so he could only put it back.
This ring looks peculiar to ordinary people, so Ye Qiu no longer wears it.
After a night of cultivation, the next morning, he got up to wash up, prepared to have breakfast and then return to the Jin University Campus for classes.
After having breakfast with his parents and sister, Ye Qiu headed back to the Jin University Campus.
Parking the car at the boys’ dormitory, he returned to the classroom. It was Thursday, with two classes in the morning, and when he just sat down in the classroom, the classmates naturally surrounded him asking about his overseas trip.
After finishing two morning classes, Ye Qiu prepared to head to the ga company there.
Upon arriving at that ga company, Luo Yang and Ning Yun rushed over and said, "Brother Qiu, we contacted the agency yesterday, and they have found several locations for shops for us."
"Let’s go check them out!"
Ti is pressing now, and once those coffee beans are shipped back, business will need to start. In the anti, renovations should be completed quickly, along with advertising.
Ye Qiu and the two got into the car first towards Luo Yang’s ntioned real estate agency.
Actually, most real estate agencies focus on houses; few deal with storefronts because it’s challenging.
Besides, store business varies, and not everyone can invest.
Arriving at the real estate agency shop with the two, Manager Song spoke, "Mr. Ning, according to your requirents, I found several nice stores in so busy buildings in Jinling, ranging from one hundred to two hundred square ters and all are two-story."
"Let’s go see them now."
Manager Song got into Ye Qiu’s car, personally leading Ye Qiu and the two towards the center of a plaza’s building.
Undoubtedly, this area is one of the most bustling parts of Jinling, surrounded by working white-collar professionals.
"The comrcial environnt here is pretty good," Ye Qiu said.
"Of course, the foot traffic is high, and custors here can afford to spend, but the rent might be steep."
"How much?" Ye Qiu asked.
"Around five hundred per square ter."
At five hundred per square ter, a hundred-square-ter area costs fifty thousand, and two hundred square ters cost one hundred thousand—no wonder the shops are vacant.
"Brother Qiu, the rent here is expensive; without counting utilities, it’s one hundred twenty thousand a year."
"For you three, this is just the first year’s rent; later, it’ll increase by five to eight percent each year."
If that’s the case, future rents would be even higher.
Adding the wages of the staff, managent, utilities, and other expenses, without making at least thirty thousand in pure profit a month, there would be no earnings at all.
"Let’s take a look first."
The three got out of the car, and Manager Song led them towards the shop on the first and second floors, which seed great with many pedestrians passing by.
"Was this previously a beverage shop?" Ye Qiu noticed the signs indicating it used to be a beverage shop.
How did it end up closing?
"Boss Ye, it was indeed a beverage shop here before, but it closed down."
Manager Song took out the keys, opened the door, went inside, and after looking around downstairs and upstairs, Ye Qiu felt it was quite good.
As for the rent, it could be negotiated, taking it down for eighty thousand a month.
"Not bad; taking it for eighty thousand is doable," Ye Qiu said to Manager Song.
"There’s also a transfer fee from the previous owner, who wants thirty thousand."
Generally, these shops are signed with the actual landlord for a year or even longer. But if business is bad and they close, the shop would be transferred, generating the so-called transfer fee.
"Ha, the business is closed, yet he dares to ask for a transfer fee," Ye Qiu coldly asked.
"Boss Ye, it’s just how the market works, nothing can be done about it."
"At most, ten thousand for the transfer fee; agree or drop it."
"I’ll contact the forr owner here, as well as the landlord."
Manager Song conveyed Ye Qiu’s conditions, and they eventually agreed on a twenty thousand transfer fee, with the rent being eighty thousand a month.
If they don’t transfer and just leave it there, they wouldn’t get any rent, suffering a loss.
"Deal with these matters yourselves."
Ye Qiu planned to transfer ten million into the coffee shop company’s account.
"After this, let’s check out the second location."
Manager Song got back into Ye Qiu’s car, and as Ye Qiu drove over, he found the location quite ideal, leaving him puzzled why these businesses closed down.
Soon, the second shop had been checked, also two-story with the first and second floors. However, the inside needed complete redesigning.
After arranging these, Ye Qiu and Luo Yang, and Ning Yun went to a bank to open a company account, transferring ten million in first.
Then the company registration and related tasks were all assigned to these two.
"When registering the company, rember to register Jamaica Clear Springs Coffee completely without giving anyone a chance."
Ye Qiu believes this company will surpass Starbucks in the future.
Thus, when he initially secured Jamaica Clear Springs Coffee, he decided that this would be the only Clear Springs Coffee globally.
The patent registration is vitally important.
Otherwise, re-acquiring it later would likely cost a significant sum.
As for patents in Europe and Arica, Ye Qiu plans to have Louise assist with registration.
