But just based on this face alone, Old Hu gave him full marks.
"Xiao Cui is our chief foot therapist here. She may be young, but her kung fu is amazing!" The owner held Xiao Cui's hand and introduced her to Lao Hu. He suddenly felt like he had entered a brothel.
He sized up Xiao Cui. Compared to the lady boss's enthusiasm, she was very shy and reserved. She was even too embarrassed to look at Old Hu. With one look, he could tell that she was not the chief foot therapist. It must be because there were no more employees available that the lady boss pulled her out.
After taking a closer look, Lao Hu felt that this Xiao Cui's facial features were similar to the owner's. Could they be relatives?
Lao Hu raised the corner of his mouth. It seemed that this place wasn't doing well. Then his price would be easy to negotiate.
"I say, owner, you're already the chief foot therapist. Why are you still so shy? Also, you don't seem to have many customers. Could it be that the service isn't good?" Lao Hu raised his eyebrows and asked. He took the initiative to lie down on a massage chair.
"What are you talking about? My business is usually very good. I saw that you have an extraordinary temperament, so I specially asked Xiao Cui to give you a massage. You have misunderstood my good intentions!" The proprietress was still reluctant to admit her mistake, which made Old Hu want to laugh.
Did she forget that he had posted a transfer ad outside?
"Then come. Let me hear what kind of service you have!" Lao Hu crossed his legs. She really thought of herself as a big boss.
"Our starting price is 299, then 499, then 699. The higher the price, the more complete the service." The owner stood beside Lao Hu and couldn't stop smiling.
Although Lao Hu was dressed very normally, one couldn't judge a book by its cover. What if he really was a big boss?
So, she asked for double the usual price.
"Tsk tsk, big sister, you really are demanding an exorbitant price. The price here is double that of other foot massage shops!" Lao Hu sat up and wanted to leave. Seeing this, the lady boss quickly let go.
"Hey, boss, what are you talking about? Our customers are different. How can they compare with us when they spend tens of yuan for a massage? We are serving people like you!
Naturally, the price will be slightly higher, but it will definitely be worth it. "
The Lady Boss blocked his way. Lao Hu sniggered, "Big sister, your stall is about to close down, right? That's why you're asking for so much."
Hearing this, the Lady Boss was stunned. "Big Brother, if you say that, I'll …"
"Alright, I came here because I saw your sublet advertisement. I'm very interested in your room."
Lao Hu walked around the house twice and carefully looked at the details. He found that the decorations were not bad, but there was room for improvement.
After all, the difference between a traditional Chinese medicine clinic and a foot massage shop was too big. The clinic must have that kind of solemn and grand feeling, so that people would trust the doctors here.
"Oh ~ I see!" The Lady Boss suddenly stopped smiling, and her tone became a little higher.
She turned around and sat on the sofa. Picking up a cup of tea, she said, "Then you have seen our request. If you can agree to it, we will sign the contract."
She had clearly written on the sublet advertisement that the original price was 100,000 yuan a year. Now, it would cost 90,000 yuan a year to sublet it. Moreover, the things here could be left for the next tenant to continue using.
"Big sister, what's the hurry?" Lao Hu stood by the window and looked at the scenery outside.
This place was facing a big road, and the view was very wide. However, there was also a disadvantage, which was that it was too noisy. Customers who wanted peace would not be able to have peace here.
"What?
If you think it's expensive, you don't have to rent it. Our location is superior, and many people are fighting to rent it.
The Lady Boss's tone was a little impolite. She had tried so hard to please him just now, and just thinking about it made her feel embarrassed.
"What's the hurry? The price can be discussed."
Lao Hu rubbed his chin and smiled amiably, "Big sister, everything about your pedicure shop is good, but the location is not good."
"You're just a renter. Watch your words. You have no right to criticize my shop." The Lady Boss's attitude became stern, and it was not the flattering look she had before.
"Don't be anxious. Listen to my analysis.
First, you opened it by the side of the road, and the soundproofing of this house is not very good. It will affect the customers' rest. What do customers come to a pedicure shop for? It's to relax!
Second, you opened it next to a university. How many university students can you expect to come for pedicures? "
With that, Lao Hu shrugged, "This shop of yours can't continue. I've asked around, and there are only two customers in a week. If you don't quickly rent out this house, you will only lose more and more money. In the end, you will lose everything!"
The Lady Boss was silent. Because Lao Hu was not lying. Her business really could not last for long.
"Just give me a painful answer. How much money do you want?"
This was the question she was most concerned about. As for why her business was not successful, she did not need Lao Hu to teach her.
"I'll give you a 20% discount. 70,000." Lao Hu reached out his hand and gestured. The Lady Boss immediately came to life.
"No, that's impossible. It's written clearly on my advertisement. It's at least ninety thousand yuan a year, not a cent less!" The lady boss jumped up from her chair, looking as if she couldn't be negotiated.
"Big sister, your advertisement has been up for almost half a month. Quite a lot of people have come, but most of them leave after seeing it. No one is like me, bargaining with you!"
Lao Hu stood in front of the Lady Boss and looked at her. Although he still looked sloppy, his attitude was very serious.
"To tell you the truth, I've already asked around. When you first rented this place, it was 70,000 a year. As for your price increase, I can understand. But we're all doing business. If you can't do it well, you can't let others bear your losses."
Lao Hu did ask around, but he did not have any real evidence. It was all based on blind guesses. If he guessed correctly, he might be able to rent it cheaply. If he guessed incorrectly, he might be able to rent it cheaply. If he guessed incorrectly, he would have to pay more.
This time, the Lady Boss really did not speak. She looked at Xiao Cui, who also had a helpless expression and shook her head at her.
After a while, she let out a long sigh, "Alright, 70,000 it is. Anyway, I don't want to stay in this place anymore. If you can give me the money now, we'll sign the contract now."
The Lady Boss turned to the front desk and took out a stack of paper from the drawer. It was obvious that she had prepared it for a long time.
"I like people like you who are straightforward!"
Lao Hu took out a plastic bag from his pocket and opened it on the table. Inside was a neat 70,000 in cash. Seeing this, the Lady Boss hurriedly signed her name on the contract, afraid that Lao Hu would go back on his word.
