A street is not the sa as a piece of land. Planning a piece of land is quite simple, but planning a street involves significant difficulties.
Not to ntion the difficulty in planning, Tang Rao never thought that putting all eggs in one basket was a wise choice, nor did he want to invest all his energy and money on the sa street. If there was a loss, he couldn't afford it.
"Forget it, let's not act impulsively for now. Zhang Wang has a lot of ideas in this area, I'll consult him and then make a plan."
This street has beco a ruin, and relying solely on the ability of the locals to renovate it would be incredibly difficult. Anyone with a bit of sense, observing the current situation, wouldn't imdiately beco the scapegoat and take over such a large burden.
The upfront investnt is huge, the future losses unclear; only Tang Rao dares to think about such business.
Wen Jinjin knows Zhang Wang and later found out that Zhang Wang is Zhang Kexin's older brother, essentially making him Tang Rao's brother-in-law. She believes Zhang Wang's consideration for this street will beco more cautious due to Tang Rao's current status.
"That's fine, we're not in a rush. We have enough ti to plan. Besides, there's nothing much going on these days, right?"
Wen Jinjin is focused on setting up a clinic. The construction of the clinic is entirely Tang Rao's concern; she only glanced at the blueprint, felt the design t her requirents, and approved it without changes, saying it could be implented.
In these two days, Tang Rao accomplished two major tasks. First, under Wang Han's arrangent, he won favor with Bei Lin and Zhang Kexin, making these two won completely his. Second, he consulted Zhang Wang about the street to see if there were any good business opportunities, and Zhang Wang just sent him a ssage, urging him to visit the Kao Shan Shop as soon as possible, sounding quite urgent.
"Boss, no, brother-in-law, hold on. I'll finish this deal then talk with you. I'm telling you, since you shared your idea with , I've thought of a foolproof business. I'll share it with you shortly."
When it cos to making money, Zhang Wang is more interested than anything else, and he always has ideas that gain Tang Rao's approval. The confident tone in Zhang Wang's words just ignited a new wave of excitent in Tang Rao, who wanted to see what clever plan Zhang Wang could produce.
Tang Rao found a secluded spot to sit, a place that allowed him to watch the entire Kao Shan Shop from within.
While contemplating life, Zhang Wang attended five clients, each of whom made a purchase through him. The purchase rate was one hundred percent, and the amounts weren't insignificant. It wasn't that these people lacked such things or had to pay high prices here, but Tang Rao noticed the major difference in the way Zhang Wang recomnded these items compared to others.
As Zhang Wang, smiling gleefully after collecting the Purple Crystal, walked towards Tang Rao, Tang Rao only showed a slight trace of happiness, avoiding any overt praise lest Zhang Wang beco cocky.
"Boss, this month we made another fortune. As your loyal subordinate, is there any extra reward this month?"
Before he got closer, Zhang Wang began asking Tang Rao for a reward, which made Tang Rao frown, not imdiately answering his question.
"You used to call brother-in-law, why now the boss?"
Tang Rao was displeased with how Zhang Wang addressed him, a dissatisfaction he didn't want to hide.
Talking to Zhang Wang, Tang Rao never thought of concealing things, never being coy.
"No, boss, it was an unintentional mistake just now. Who dares to raise their status before the boss, right? You've always been my big brother. Even if my sister marries you, you're still my big brother."
Zhang Wang felt deeply hurt, crying out silently.
How did he encounter soone like Tang Rao, whose mood is so unpredictable? He never knew when Tang Rao might be angered or the reason behind it.
"Glad you know."
Tang Rao's expression relaxed significantly and his gaze softened when looking at Zhang Wang.
"So, big brother, do you think my performance this month deserves a reward?"
Zhang Wang doesn't lack that money. If he truly did, he wouldn't have been willing to let go of the entire Kao Shan Shop for Tang Rao and willingly work as his subordinate.
Asking Tang Rao for a reward wasn't really for the extra Purple Crystal, but for Tang Rao's recognition. That recognition is sothing money can't asure.
It's a symbol of honor!
"Once your business proposal satisfies , we might consider giving you a little extra this month."
Tang Rao didn't outright refuse but left Zhang Wang room for negotiation.
Previously, there wasn't even room for discussion.
"Alright then, here's a rough map I made in my spare ti. Take a look while I explain."
Zhang Wang took out the map with great care, using a slender twig to point out every detail on the map. Tang Rao realized that after he shared his thoughts, Zhang Wang went to see the street and drew the map according to the conditions, marking his thoughts on it.
Knowing to personally survey the area, not just talk, Zhang Wang never cuts corners, just this alone is worth endless rewards from Tang Rao.
"Boss, this street used to sell antiques. Before that, it gained fa for selling fake items and was once suppressed. After finally getting back on track, this problem occurred, making antiques difficult to continue. Over the years, whether it's this street or the entire Tingzhou, even North Island, the structure of places and items sold are more or less the sa. My idea is, could we bring out those rare goods from the boss and sell them here?"
Tang Rao remained noncommittal, rely listening as Zhang Wang continued: "You see, now there's everything for sale here, comparing quality, price, everything, making business increasingly difficult. If the boss is willing to introduce your finest items and distribute them among the shops for exclusive sale, would you still worry about business not thriving?"
Would it be like Yanren Street abroad? Specializing in selling Yan country specialties?
A beautiful vision imdiately painted itself in Tang Rao's mind.
"Are you so sure I can provide enough goods for sale?"
Like the items from Tang Rao's personal palace and Space Ring aren't automatically replenished once taken out; they need to be placed inside to be retrieved when needed. If a shop were opened to sell these things, there would inevitably be a ti when they're sold out. Once sold out, where would he restock from?
