Li Ya casually picked up a small red booklet. On it, it clearly registered the family's property information, including square footage, location, and so on.
These small booklets, each of them, were worth a great deal and could not be overlooked.
After flipping through several property deeds consecutively, Li Ya finally couldn't contain her joy. She casually tossed the property deed in her hand and rushed to hug Qin Chuan, jumping and dancing with happiness.
"Qin Chuan, you did an amazing job!"
"With these property deeds and land certificates, we can finally move on to the next step!"
Qin Chuan also smiled, "Yes, the Great Wall is hard to build from scratch. We've finally successfully taken this first step!"
"What we need to do next is find a bank for a loan!"
"Once the loan is approved, we'll register the company, get approval from the government, contact the construction team, and start construction directly!"
"And regarding the construction team, I already have candidates in mind!"
Li Ya nodded and said happily, "Great! Great! You arrange everything!"
"As for the bank, I'll help you contact someone right away!"
After speaking, Li Ya released her small hand from Qin Chuan's chest and quickly returned to behind her desk, picked up the phone, and began dialing.
"Xue Tao, are you free for lunch today? I'd like to treat you to a meal to express my gratitude!"
When the call connected, Li Ya spoke directly.
"What? You're not here, you've gone on a business trip? When will you be back?"
"Okay, okay, I'll wait for you to come back! Definitely, definitely!"
After hanging up, Li Ya shrugged helplessly, "Qin Chuan, I'm afraid the loan will have to wait a few days. My old classmate who works at the bank just left on a business trip this morning and won't be back for about three days."
Qin Chuan replied, "It's okay, three days is three days. The villagers in Huangjia Village will need a week to move anyway, so there's no rush!"
"However, these items need to be stored in your safe first. We can take them out when we need them!"
Qin Chuan pointed at the leather case.
Li Ya hummed in agreement and quickly locked the leather case in the safe. Just as she finished, there was a sudden knock on the office door, and a figure rushed in.
"Boss, I've chosen the place you asked me to find!"
Chun Tao said quickly as soon as she entered. Then, seeing Qin Chuan and Qin Gang standing in the office, she was extremely surprised, "Why are you guys here?"
"What, Chun Tao, aren't you welcoming us?"
Qin Gang said with a smile.
"How could that be? I'm just genuinely surprised!"
Chun Tao quickly waved her hands, her nervous demeanor making everyone laugh.
"Qin Chuan, it's good that you're back. Come with me to check out the storefront!"
At this moment, Li Ya spoke.
Qin Chuan's heart stirred, "The storefront for the flagship store?"
"Yes!"
Li Ya nodded, "You guys have been busy these past few days, but I haven't been idle either. I've been having the factory speed up production of those clothes and sending people to look for a suitable storefront in the city.
"Chun Tao found a place, and since you're here, let's go take a look together!"
"Alright!"
Qin Chuan agreed, and the group immediately drove towards the city.
Not long after, they arrived at the main street of the city.
This was currently the most prosperous street in the county town. Nearly two-thirds of the businesses were located here, selling general merchandise, clothes, shoes, fabrics, snacks, and operating restaurants, etc.
Led by Chun Tao, the Santana stopped next to a row of bungalows.
"It's there!"
Chun Tao pointed to a storefront on the opposite street with a "For Transfer" sign and said.
Qin Chuan, Li Ya, and Qin Gang all turned to look. They saw that it was a shop selling clothes, but it was children's clothing. There was a "For Transfer" sign at the entrance.
Just a quick glance from afar, and Qin Chuan's brow furrowed slightly. He said, "No need to go down, it's not suitable!"
Chun Tao became anxious, "Qin Chuan, you haven't even gone down to look!"
"Sister Chun Tao, we're friends now, so I don't need to beat around the bush."
Qin Chuan explained, "That shop across the street is too small and doesn't meet my expectations at all!"
Li Ya also nodded. The shop looked a bit small at first glance, and she was also not satisfied.
Just then, Qin Chuan continued.
"Since we're opening a flagship store, and we want everyone in Yongnan County to think of our name first when they think of buying clothes, the first point must be that it's big enough! It must have enough presence!"
"According to my requirements, two hundred square meters is the minimum requirement. It would be best to find a place over five hundred square meters, and ideally a thousand square meters across two floors!"
*Clack!*
As Qin Chuan finished speaking, it felt as if jaws were dislocating in the Santana. Chun Tao and Qin Gang's eyes widened, their mouths slightly agape.
Even Li Ya was surprised and couldn't help but say, "Qin Chuan, a thousand square meters across two floors, isn't that a bit too big?"
Unexpectedly, Qin Chuan shook his head firmly, "It's not big, not at all big. I even think it's small!"
"Since we're going to do it, we must be the top of the food chain, at least in our small county!"
"Only in this way can we create the most impressive psychological impact on everyone!"
"In the future, when ordinary people chat with each other, if they say their clothes were bought from our flagship store, it will be a symbol of status. If they weren't bought from our flagship store, then they are low-end goods. That's called success!"
"In addition, our flagship store will also train a group of professional sales staff, with unified uniforms and appearances, operating under the principle of 'the customer is God,' providing meticulous care and thoughtfulness to customers."
"Strictly speaking, we are selling both brands and services in tandem. We sell brands and we sell services!"
Chun Tao couldn't help but ask anxiously, "Won't the cost of opening a store like this greatly increase? Will we be able to make it back?"
"Please remove the 'δΉ' (me). Trust me, we will not only make it back but also make a huge profit!"
Qin Chuan's face once again showed that extraordinary confidence, a confidence that had appeared many times at the exhibitions before.
Chun Tao, having been a participant, felt her heart settle. It seemed that as long as Qin Chuan said they could make money, they definitely would.
"Everyone, remember, when opening a flagship store, rent and renovation are the main expenses. In the early stages, they account for at least fifty percent of the cost. Clothes and labor account for thirty percent, and the final twenty percent is what you ultimately earn!"
"Therefore, we must be willing to spend money and invest in the early stages!"
Everyone pondered this.
"However, this time, there's something different, and we can save a lot of money!"
At this moment, Qin Chuan spoke again.
"Where can we save money?"
Li Ya asked with a puzzled expression.
"Renovation!"
Qin Chuan smiled, "Sister, have you forgotten? I told you before that I am now in the renovation and construction business. Since this is our own store, of course, I will be responsible for the renovation!"
"You see, doesn't this save a lot of money!"
As Qin Chuan finished speaking, Qin Gang immediately chimed in, "Yes, my brother's renovation work is absolutely beautiful!"
"Since this shop needs renovation, it must be us!"
