Chapter 131 Open your own store
After talking with Zhou Qing, Zhang Qiyuan came to the teahouse to find Luo Gang.
"My salary should all be credited to my account today." Zhang Qiyuan said as he sat in front of Luo Gang.
"See, I told you, the boss always keeps his word." Luo Gang happily poured a cup of tea for Zhang Qiyuan.
Zhang Qiyuan glanced at Luo Gang and said, "She was planning to continue to owe me the money, but I told her that I would go to the Labor Bureau for arbitration and expose her on Xiaohongshu, and then she agreed to transfer it to me immediately."
"..." Luo Gang was a little dumbfounded and said, "Can you still stay in the company if you do this?"
"So I'm going to the headquarters to resign right away." Zhang Qiyuan said lightly.
Hearing this, Luo Gang fell silent.
Their store is relying on Zhang Qiyuan to place orders. If Zhang Qiyuan resigns, will his store still be able to place orders?
"Which store are you going to go to after you resign?" Luo Gang asked after a long time.
"I plan to open my own shop. Brother Luo, do you want to join me?" Zhang Qiyuan stared at Luo Gang and said.
After all, he had only been in the business for four and a half months and lacked experience in the real estate industry. It would be too risky for him to open a store alone, and there were some things he didn't understand. But Luo Gang knew more. After nearly three months of getting along with him, he felt that Luo Gang was a good person and would definitely be more qualified than him as a store manager.
"With the current market conditions, you still dare to open a store. You are quite brave." Luo Gang asked instead of answering.
"The brave will die of overeating, while the timid will die of starvation. I have discovered that if you want to make money in the real estate industry, you have to open your own store."
"Have you made a plan? Where do you want to open the store? Which brand do you want to join? Do you have anyone under you?" Luo Gang asked.
Zhang Qiyuan said seriously, "Brother Luo, I have really thought about this. I want to rent the former Shijia Real Estate. First of all, the decoration is ready. After we take over the shop, we don't need to decorate it. We can just buy some air conditioners and furniture and operate it directly. Secondly, the store is opposite the middle school. After the school starts in September next year, it will be easy to make rental orders here. The rental orders alone are enough to support the brokers. Of course, the store rent is more expensive. Brother Luo, you need to talk to the landlord about this. It would be best if you can negotiate a rent of around 6,000."
"As for which brand to join, I have also considered it. I want to run it myself. First of all, the initial investment is small and there is not much pressure. Secondly, if we join other brands now, most of the houses have been taken. If we join now, there are very few houses. Even if the house is sold, we have to give nearly half of the commission. It is difficult to make money. Moreover, we are only familiar with the southern district and cannot sell second-hand houses in other places. Joining a brand is relatively useless for us."
"As for whether I have anyone under my command? I should be able to get Wang Yong and Sister He over here. Together with the two of us, there will be four of us. Four veterans are enough. Then we can get a few newcomers. I think Wang Qun and Li Xin are good candidates."
After hearing what Zhang Qiyuan said, Luo Gang was somewhat moved.
He had wanted to open his own store as early as the year before last. If Xiong Wei hadn't interfered, he might have already partnered with Dong Hui to open Shijia Real Estate.
And if Zhang Qiyuan could poach Wang Yong and He Guixiang, there would be something to be gained.
"How much money do you plan to spend to open the store? How much money will it cost if I join you? How much share will you take?" Luo Gang pondered.
Zhang Qiyuan was delighted. Since Luo Gang asked this, he must be interested.
"When the 22 yuan arrives in my account later, I should have about yuan in my hands. I plan to buy a second-hand car worth about or yuan, leaving or yuan for expenses, and the rest can be used to open a store. It mainly depends on how much you, Brother Luo, want to invest?" Zhang Qiyuan calculated.
"Given the current market conditions, are you sure you want to open a store? If you lose money, all the money you earned in the past few months will be gone." Luo Gang looked at Zhang Qiyuan in surprise.
"At worst, I can find another store to work and increase sales." Zhang Qiyuan said indifferently.
"..."
Luo Gang was speechless. Only Zhang Qiyuan dared to say this. He thought about it carefully before saying, "When I was in the most difficult time, it was Ms. Zhou who lent me 100,000 yuan. I can't let her down."
Zhang Qiyuan's heart sank. If Luo Gang was unwilling to form a partnership with him, it would be difficult for him to find a suitable partner.
"But..." Luo Gang paused and said, "If you leave, it will be difficult for this store to continue running. Besides, the company is very short of money now. It is said that they don't plan to rent the office building on the headquarters floor anymore. They are planning to move the headquarters to Mr. Zhou's earliest store, Vanke Jincheng Store. Gong Xue and her colleagues happen to have no one in the store. If our store doesn't make good sales next month, we will probably have to close it."
"So I plan to help Mr. Zhou guard the last shift."
Zhang Qiyuan couldn't help but frowned. This meant that if he wanted to open a store, he would have to wait until Shangjia Real Estate closed down.
As if he could see what Zhang Qiyuan was thinking, Luo Gang continued, "But this does not affect me from investing in a store with you. All I can take out now is 50,000 yuan, so let's fight. Whether you buy a villa or sleep on the overpass, it's up to you, Qiyuan. I still have high hopes for you."
"Don't breathe so heavily when you speak. In fact, after these few months of getting along with each other, I also feel that you are a very good partner, Brother Luo." Zhang Qiyuan immediately laughed.
"Since you, Luo, have put up 55 yuan, I will put up 45 yuan. I will own % of the shares and you will own %. You will be the store manager at that time, and the salary will be yuan. Is that okay?"
"Okay, but all this is based on the condition that you bring Wang Yong and He Guixiang here. If the company doesn't have a few veterans, it will be difficult to make a profit." Luo Gang thought for a while and said.
"Okay, then I will be responsible for bringing Brother Wang and Sister He over in the next few days, and Brother Luo, you will be responsible for negotiating the rent with the landlord."
Zhang Qiyuan said confidently that with Luo Gang's investment, he believed their store would still be successful.
After talking with Luo Gang, Zhang Qiyuan packed up his things and asked Li Xin to take them to the dormitory for him. After completing his resignation, he would move out of the company dormitory.
Then Zhang Qiyuan took a taxi and came to the headquarters of Shangjia Real Estate.
"Hey, Zhang Qiyuan, why are you here?" Li Ying at the front desk asked in surprise when she saw Zhang Qiyuan.
"I'm doing something. Where's Mr. Zhou?" Zhang Qiyuan said vaguely.
"In the office!"
Zhang Qiyuan nodded and walked towards the general manager's office.
Boom boom boom!
Zhang Qiyuan knocked on the glass door of the office.
"Come in!" Zhou Qing's voice came from inside.
Zhang Qiyuan pushed the door open and walked in.
Seeing that it was Zhang Qiyuan, Zhou Qing sighed and said, "Zhang Qiyuan, why don't you reconsider it? In fact, our Shangjia Real Estate is quite good."
"No need, Mr. Zhou, I have thought it through clearly. Shangjia Real Estate is good, but I have zero tolerance for wage arrears." Zhang Qiyuan shook his head firmly.
"Okay, then you go with Ao Fei to complete the resignation process first. I'll ask Zou Xingyuan to transfer your salary to you before six o'clock." Zhou Qing said.
Zhang Qiyuan thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll wait here until six o'clock. I'll resign only when the money arrives."
"up to you!"
