Chapter 632 - 631 Startup Plan
With Zhao Dafa as her successful mentor, Shen Hongmei undoubtedly had a hundred times more confidence in her entrepreneurial plan.
Early the next morning, she drove her sports car to scout for the right storefront.
In the current economy, large household appliances like televisions, refrigerators, and washing machines, were still considered luxury items for the average family, costing thousands or even several thousands, which meant ordinary families had to think long and hard before making a purchase.
Drawing inspiration from Shen Mingzhu’s entrepreneurial idea, Shen Hongmei also wanted to make money from the rich and planned to open a high-end, tasteful specialty store.
To open such a store, not only did the location need to be good, but the area needed to be large enough as well.
Fortunately, she was not short on money and quickly found a suitable storefront.
The shop was located in a busy shopping district, with two floors, totaling about three hundred square meters, and an office building above.
Shen Hongmei had it all planned out -- the shop would be used as a showroom and retail space, while she would rent two office rooms above for office work, large business transactions, and storage.
After some bargaining, the two-story street-front shop plus the two office rooms above, with a total area of about two hundred square meters, had an annual rent of three hundred thousand.
Shen Hongmei did not accept Zhao Dafa’s financial help and hadn’t sold her stocks yet, so she could only pay a deposit to secure the shop, planning to sign the official contract and pay the rent once she sold her stocks on Monday.
