In order not to lose the remainingmonths of the lease The boss of Old Treasures found the landlord as quickly as possible andthen called in a couple colleagues to evaluate the goods.
Cutting meat is always the hardest decision to make butas long as you make the decision and wave the knife, there is nothing that cannot be cut.
The landlord was very happy.
After all, he had found someone for his next tenant.
Otherwise, if nowas willing to continue renting the property when the current tenant expired He would have to struggle to find a tenant and lose a day's rent.
soafter he arrived, he immediately signed an agreement with thepeople recognizing the transfer of the remainingmonths of the lease andsigned a new contract with Peter.
Peter did not need to pay money immediately He only needed to pay when the 3-month lease was up.
Just transfer the rent to the landlord before the new lease term begins.
After signing the agreement, colleagues with the same positioning as Old Treasures on Antique Street flocked to the place.
Merchants here like to go to their peers' stores to take inventory.
Once this peer decides not to operate the business anymore Or even plans to no longer personally retail the remaining goods It means that he is willing to accept clearing goods to his peers at a price lower than the cost price.
If you buy something that costshundred You can often get it for 70 or80 Which is much more cost-effective than going to other places to purchase the goods yourself.
The boss saw his colleagues coming over and clearing away all the goods in less than 1/2 an hour.
He couldn't help but sigh to Peter "It seems that this meat must be cut when it's time to cut it!"
"In the past, I only had to look at this pile I had a headache when I bought all the goods."
"Now that they are all gone, I feel much more comfortable."
"Although I lost a lot of money, I finally have a chance to have a good mood."
Peter nodded in agreement and said "People say that out of sight is out of mind."
"Annoyance, this is the truth. When these things become a drag on you."
"Although they still have value, they can only provide you with negative emotional value until they are cashed out."
"Every day you are upset is an invisible loss."
The boss nodded and said "You are right! just similar to the oil stock I bought back then."
"From the 2nd day, I bought it, every day thereafter is the best time to cut meat."
"Unfortunately, I am like an ostwealth, I just dived into the sand and didn't care about anything."
"I foolishly waited for my money back."
"More than10years have passed."
"Taking into account inflation, I have lost at least 90Percent."
Peter smiled slightly.
In fact, most people With such a mentality, hesitant and always holding unrealistic illusions Such people are actually not suitable for investment and will never be able to grasp the timing of stopping losses and taking profits.
Seeing that the goods were almost cleared, the boss calledSeveral friends to help pack up all the remaining personal belongings.
He also called a small truck to take them all away.
Then he said to Peter "This is what's inside The children's tables, chairs and benches are all old."
"andnowants them for sale. It's a pity to give them away."
"I guess you don't like them, but you can keep them for transition."
"It will take time for you to order new ones."
"When the new ones come, then I'll take them back."
"Alright." Peter nodded.
The boss said again "By the way, I won't take off the store's sign."
"If you don't like it, you can have someone pick it off when you change it later."
Peter smiled and said, "The word treasure is used too often in the industry."
"More, but I am too lazy, so I won't bother to come up with a new name."
…
It was noon, and the handover of Peter's new shop had been completed.
At this time, Manager Smith ran over with a flower basket congratulating the opening.
As soon as they met, he said enthusiastically "Oh, Manager Zachary, you are really efficient."
"You just came back yesterday evening, and the store opened at noon today!"
Peter smiled and said "When you can do a small business by yourself."
"Of course. The sooner the better."
Manager Smith placed the flower basket next to Old Treasures's door and said with a bit of blame "Manager Zachary, you are still too unfamiliar."
"Almost 1/2 of the merchants in this antique street are old acquaintances."
"Come on, your new store has opened."
"Why don't you tell everyone and sendSeveral more flower baskets."
"Which will make your aura brighter!"
Peter hurriedly handed over his hands and said, "Manager Smith spent a lot of money."
"butthis is my small business. I don't know if I can continue the business for long."
"It's not suitable to make a big fanfare and hold it high right from the beginning."
"It's better to keep a low profile."
Manager Smith nodded and said with a smile "You are so humble. With your strength, you will soon make a name for yourself in Antique Street."
"Your Old Treasures business will definitely be the hottest on our street."
Peter said politely "Then I'll lend you good luck."
Just as he said that Ervin walked with a smile.
He came over and saw Peter and Manager Smith at the door.
He pretended to be surprised and said "Oh, isn't this Manager Zachary? When did you come back?"
Peter also recognized Ervin.
The reason why he still remembers Ervin is that in his opinion Ervin is the smartest vendor in the entire antique street.
He is really smart.
However, in Peter's opinion before, Ervin's intelligence was not used in the right way.
He is a well-informed person, and he can see that although People similar to to Ervin have a little cleverness They have not settled down to turn their little cleverness into a real skill.
In addition, he comes from a humble background and has no noble people to support him.
It's still hard to get ahead.
butlooking at Ervin today, he clearly feels that this person's aura is a little different from before.
He has also become a little rounder from the skinny feature before.
It seems that he has been living a good life recently.
So, Peter asked him with a smile "Ervin, are you still doing business in Antique Street?"
Ervin said with a smile "Occasionally, I come here occasionally."
"Now I mainly do something with an old brother."
"Antique Street can't take care of me anymore."
As he said that, he asked pretending to be curious "Manager Zachary, are you opening a new business?"
"Yes." Peter nodded and said, "It's a new business."
"Collect some things, and also… Help people evaluate their stuff."
"Treasure appraisal."
