Tang Qing is indeed looking for a storefront apartment.
Coming out of the old courtyard of the Li family on Lushan Road, Tang Qing jogged all the way to the foot of the embankment at the west bridge.
Last night, Tang Qing accidentally learned from a neighbor that there was a cheap garage for rent next to the West Qiaotou embankment.
Tang Qing was wondering if she could rent a garage and open a people's barber shop? So when her parents and father-in-law came over, she hurried over to ask about the situation.
When Li Ya was out of breath and caught up with Tang Qing, Tang Qing had already negotiated the price and rented a garage facing the West Bridge.
"Master Jiujin, can we open a shop here?"
Li Ya was suspicious. The garage in front of her was only twenty-five square meters at most. It was low and narrow and didn't even have a window.
"Why can't we open it? They even set up stalls in the open air."
"Can that be the same?"
"Why is it different? My grandpa used to have to shave his head and bear the wind and rain. At least I can protect myself from the wind and rain."
"Master Jiujin, if you don't have money, I have it here. Go rent a better storefront room."
"Liya, thank you for your kindness. There is no way I will ask for your money."
"Master Jiujin, would you like me to invest in the company? I'm looking for a cooperation project."
"Liya, how much money can the People's Barbershop make in a year? Are you still investing in shares? Let's do this. If Xiaoqiang grows up and has no future, you can help him invest. I'll beg your aunt."
Tang Qing smiled and waited for the landlord to bring the lease contract, sign and pay, and receive the key.
"Master Jiujin, you should think about it again."
"Don't think about it, the People's Barber Shop will reopen tomorrow!"
"What? Will we reopen tomorrow?"
"Yeah, you'd better go back to the hotel and get some sleep. I'll go get someone to help move the equipment."
After Tang Qing finished speaking, he pulled down the rolling shutter, turned around and walked towards the downtown street.
"Master Jiujin, let me help you move it together."
Li Ya catches up with Tang Qing.
"No, you should go back to the hotel and sleep. You must be tired after not sleeping all night."
"Master Jiujin, didn't you also stay up all night?"
"I'm a bitch, it doesn't matter if I don't sleep for one night."
"Master Jiujin, let me help you together."
"Liya, you really don't have to. To be honest, you can't do physical work, so it will be a hindrance here."
"Well, if you need anything, call me anytime."
"I'm sure you're welcome. Come back quickly."
After Tang Qing and Li Ya broke up, they first came to Bao Wentan's home.
"Good morning, Master Jiujin!"
"Good morning!"
"Good morning, Master Jiujin!"
"Morning for you too!"
…
Seeing Tang Qing coming over, the neighbors in Laotaimen greeted her one after another.
Since the last time Tang Qing came to Bao's house as a guest, the neighbors in Laotaimen have been extremely polite to Bao and the woman Bao. Not only did they no longer spit on the woman Bao, but they also took the initiative to greet her. The woman Bao also took the initiative to give him sex
He gave everyone burritos and deep-fried cakes, and they got along very harmoniously.
"Hey, are you frying fried cakes so early in the morning?"
Tang Qing walked into Bao's home and saw the woman Bao was busy in the kitchen.
"Ouch, Master Jiujin, why are you here?"
The inquiring woman quickly turned around.
"What? I can't come? Well, it smells so good!"
Tang Qing grabbed a piece of fried cake and ate it with relish.
"Master Jiujin, you know I can't speak. Please sit down and I'll wake up my man."
The woman who inquired was a little at a loss.
"No need to shout, no need to shout, I'm up."
Bao Wenwen ran down the stairs in a hurry, his clothes still not neatly dressed.
"What? Why don't you set up a food stall and sleep in?"
Tang Qing grabbed another piece of fried cake and put it into his mouth.
"Master Jiujin, it's rare for you to sleep in, haha."
Bao Wenwen dressed neatly and held a chair for Tang Qing.
"I won't sit down anymore. Come to the People's Barber Shop after breakfast. Help me paint the new shop in the morning and help move the equipment in the afternoon."
Tang Qing picked up a glass of water on the table and drank it down.
"Master Jiujin, have you found the store?"
"Master Jiujin, have you found a new storefront?"
Bao Wenwen and his woman's eyes sparkled.
"Yes, you can start setting up the food stall again tomorrow. I'm leaving!"
Tang Qing grabbed a piece of fried cake and stuffed it into his mouth, walked out of Bao Dawen's house and came to Xiao Baldou's security window shop.
"Master Jiujin!"
"Master Jiujin!"
"Are you busy starting so early?"
When the young bald couple saw Tang Qing coming over, they quickly put down what they were doing.
"Is business good? Let's do more!"
"Well, that's right, that's how it should be."
"Master Jiujin, is there something wrong with you coming here so early?"
"Well, I have found a garage to be used as a people's barber shop. Can you help me install a few tool racks there?"
"Of course, can you go now?"
"You should do your work first and come back during lunch."
After Tang Qing told Little Baldy the specific location of the garage, he returned to the Li family's old yard on Lushan Road.
"Qing'er, Director Liu has been waiting for you for a long time!"
When Tang Qing's mother saw Tang Qing walking into the old courtyard, she hurriedly grabbed her hand and brought her to Director Liu.
"Good morning, Director Liu, did you come here in the middle of the night?"
"No, I just arrived and don't have much time."
"Mom, you have to be honest when you speak. Don't be like some people who don't have a clear aim when speaking. They have eight legs for chatting like Carpenter Wang when he talks about a big book. Don't chase after you when you fly."
(Chat has eight legs, don’t catch it when you fly. It’s a slang term in Yancheng, referring to speaking with exaggeration and exaggerating.)
"How come I can't catch you when I'm flying with eight legs?"
"Didn't you say that Director Liu has been waiting for me for most of the day? If Director Liu has been waiting for me for most of the day, she will have to come and wait at least in the middle of the night."
"You kid, you know how to take advantage of me. Please thank Director Liu, she came here specifically for your storefront!"
"Oh, then I would like to thank Director Liu first. However, I have already found a storefront room."
"Master Jiujin, have you found a storefront yet?"
"Have you found a storefront space?"
"Where?"
"Is the rent expensive?"
Upon hearing that Tang Qing said that the storefront room had been found, Director Liu was a little surprised. Tang Qing's mother, father, and father-in-law were also unexpected and rushed over to inquire.
"The rent for a house under the river embankment by the West Bridge is only 8,000 yuan a year."
"Eight thousand dollars a year?"
"Is it possible?"
"You're not being cheated, are you?"
"Yes, are there such cheap storefront rooms?"
Director Liu, Tang Qing's parents and father-in-law didn't believe what Tang Qing said.
"Believe it or not, contractor!"
Tang Qing ignored Director Liu and his father, mother, and father-in-law, and turned around to call the contractor.
"Here it is!"
The contractor's bulging body quickly rolled in front of Tang Qing.
"Can you send me two painters this morning?"
"Yes, twenty is no problem."
"Just two, you can let them follow me later."
"Okay, do you have any other instructions?"
"In the afternoon, prepare a tool cart for me and call five or six brothers to help me move the equipment to the People's Barber Shop."
"OK, make sure to complete the task!"
"Don't worry, I will pay them according to the standard wages."
"Master Jiujin, what are you talking about about wages? Besides, if we have to pay wages, can't we just get married together when the time comes? I don't know."
The contractor's big, round head shook at Tang Qing, with a proud smile on his face.
"Don't be so naughty in front of me. Believe it or not, I'll shave you into a golden glory!"
"Yes, yes, no slipping, no slipping..."
Seeing Tang Qing's face sinking, the contractor shrank his neck in fright, and covered his big round head with his fat hands.
"Hmph, it's true that a dog can't change its habit of eating shit. Is Master Jiujin the kind of person who takes advantage of others? Why don't you get out of here?!"
The Shanghai aunt stood in front of the contractor with a solemn embrace of the Spring Festival.
"you?!"
When the contractor saw Auntie Shanghai, his body that had tightened his neck suddenly became half shorter.
"Go and do your business and remember my business."
"Well, okay."
The contractor ran away and left Auntie Shanghai.
"Welcome the Spring Festival, give me a hug from my aunt."
Tang Qing took the New Year greeting card from the Shanghai aunt.
"Oh, it's been a long time since Aunt Qing said hello to the Spring Festival. Alas to welcome the Spring Festival..."
"Stop talking nonsense. What happened? How can I help you? Just tell me!"
