Chapter 195
"Is that Mr. Qin?"
"It's me, who are you?" Qin Mo was curious.
"Sorry to bother you, I'm the owner of the Chunxi Road hot pot restaurant. I heard that you want to acquire our store, so I called you in advance to confirm." A voice came from the other end of the phone.
Qin Mo reacted immediately, looked at the time, and then smiled and said, "You're welcome. Let's do this. I'll go there in the evening and then talk in detail."
Then the two of them exchanged a few polite words before hanging up the phone.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Qin Mo went out again. He said hello to Jin Zhe and Su Shi and left.
When he came to the parking space, the lights of the AMG GTR PRO came on. He was going to drive the car over. He hadn't driven it for several days and was going to let it move around.
After setting the navigation, Qin Mo drove directly to the Sichuan hot pot restaurant on Chunxi Road. There was no traffic jam along the way, and music was playing in the car.
Half an hour later, Qin Mo arrived at the hot pot restaurant. After parking the car, he unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car, then walked towards the hot pot restaurant.
It was dinner time, and there were many people in the restaurant, almost full. At this time, a waiter came straight over and asked politely, "How many gentlemen?"
"I'm looking for your boss." Qin Mo responded casually.
"Are you Mr. Qin?" The waiter reacted.
"It's me." Qin Mo smiled and nodded.
"Mr. Qin, please follow me, our boss is waiting for you inside." The waiter stretched out his hand and led Qin Mo in front.
"Hello, Mr. Qin, my last name is Chen, Chen Lidong." A man who looked about 40 years old came up with a kind smile on his face.
"Hello." Qin Mo stretched out his hand and shook hands with the other party.
"Please sit down." Chen Lidong said, and then poured Qin Mo a cup of tea.
"Thank you." Qin Mo thanked him, took a sip of the tea, and it turned out to be White Peony, but it tasted better than the White Peony he drank in the Wuxiang Tea Space.
"14-year-old White Peony, I prefer this flavor. I wonder if Mr. Qin is used to it." Chen Lidong noticed the change in Qin Mo, and then said with a smile.
"Boss Chen is too polite. I don't have much ability to taste tea. I just tasted it once in Wuxiang Tea Space before, and I felt a little surprised." Qin Mo also responded with a smile.
Chen Lidong's eyes flashed with surprise. He didn't expect Qin Mo to say that. He thought Qin Mo showed that expression because he thought the tea was too cheap. Now it seems that this guy is really honest.
The 14-year-old White Peony is of better quality, and the price is basically around 2,000 to 3,000. It is not expensive but not cheap either.
Compared with the white tea in Wuxiang Tea Space, it is obvious that the white tea he is drinking now tastes better and fuller.
"Mr. Qin is studying in Tianfu?" Chen Lidong poured tea for Qin Mo again, and then the two chatted.
"Freshman of Tianfu University." Qin Mo smiled.
"You are really young and promising. Brother, I am older than you, so I will call you Brother Qin." Chen Lidong said with a smile.
Qin Mo smiled and nodded, not minding at all, not to mention that the latter was obviously more friendly. The two chatted about family matters while drinking, and after a while Qin Mo got straight to the point.
"How much does Brother Chen plan to sell this store for?" Qin Mo asked calmly.
The system only gave him a budget, which was the bottom line that Chen Lidong could accept, but it didn't say that this guy just raised the price temporarily, so it was better to ask clearly.
Isn't doing business just a matter of arguing? You and I, in the end, the price was brought to a level that both parties could accept. There are still few bosses who are as straightforward as the previous beauty agency.
"Brother plans to sell it for 8.6 million." Chen Lidong stated his goal.
In fact, he was also testing Qin Mo. If he was a white man who knew nothing, maybe he could make hundreds of thousands more.
"Brother Chen is joking." Qin Mo smiled, and he was indeed guessed.
Qin Mo took a sip of tea and continued, "I have done research on this hot pot restaurant before coming here. The overall positioning is biased towards the low-end market, with an average of more than 100 yuan per person, and an annual net profit of about 1.8 to 2.5 million."
"I have just taken a brief look at the area and facilities of this store. From decoration to rent, the initial investment should be around 10 million. The hot pot restaurant has been open for more than a year, and the business is not bad. Let's assume that the net income for one year is 2 million."
"This income is not low for a hot pot restaurant, but Brother Chen still plans to sell it. There are only two situations. One is that there is a problem with the capital chain, and the other should be that the business situation this year has declined, and it has fallen beyond Brother Chen's tolerance range, so he wants to sell it. If I am not mistaken, it should be the latter." Qin Mo smiled and looked at Chen Lidong.
Chen Lidong looked at Qin Mo in surprise, because what Qin Mo said was correct.The revenue of the past few months has indeed dropped a lot compared to last year. He was surprised and said, "Did Brother Qin find out all this?"
Qin Mo smiled and said, "I guess so. I have a basic understanding of the prices and rents in Tianfu, and the profits of hot pot restaurants are almost transparent, especially for the mid-to-low-end positioning, so it is not difficult to guess. As for me, I dare to conclude that the reason for the decline in brother's revenue this year is not because of the problem of capital chain, but because of the watch on his hand."
Qin Mo calmly drank a sip of tea, looking like he had understood Chen Lidong thoroughly. The watch on his hand was a Patek Philippe minute repeater series watch, 5073p platinum black dial, and the price in the secondary market has exceeded 10 million.
Who would come out with a watch worth more than 10 million to show off when the capital chain is broken?
So the first situation is not true at all.
Chen Lidong glanced at his wrist and looked at Qin Mo with some admiration: "Brother Qin, you are very knowledgeable about watches?"
"I also have a Patek Philippe, but it is just an entry-level collection watch. I studied all kinds of Patek Philippe watches before I bought it." Qin Mo said jokingly.
"Brother Qin bought the 5160 series?" Chen Lidong guessed the watch Qin Mo was talking about.
"5160R." Qin Mo nodded and smiled.
"Young and promising." Chen Lidong sighed again. Qin Mo's behavior and observation of details were quite sophisticated, not like a student who just entered college.
"Brother Qin, how much do you think is appropriate?" Chen Lidong stopped arguing. Qin Mo was not a rookie at all. If he kept talking nonsense, he might collapse.
"I will offer up to 8 million." Qin Mo calmly sipped the tea. He would never make mistakes according to the budget given by the system. He believed that Chen Lidong would definitely agree in the end.
"Brother Qin, can you offer more?" Chen Lidong asked.
"To be honest, this hot pot restaurant is worth 8 million in my heart. You know the market this year. Hot pot restaurants are the most abundant thing in Tianfu." Qin Mo said with a smile.
Then he continued: "The degree of internal competition in the past two years has made other investors dare not invest, or they will lose everything after investing. Moreover, this restaurant is positioned in the middle and low end. When I take over, I will definitely improve the positioning. At that time, I will undoubtedly face the loss of another group of customers, so this restaurant is only worth 8 million."
