"Do you believe me now?" Gu Ning looked at him with amusement.
"Of course I do! How could I not? They're nothing in front of you. They'll run away as soon as they hear your name. Unless they're stupid, "Du Laifeng said. If he still didn't believe Gu Ning's words, he must be stupid.
Gu Ning wasn't an ordinary girl. She was good at kung fu and had a lot of connections. Smart people didn't dare to offend her.
Du Laifeng felt very lucky to meet Gu Ning now, and he felt that his future would change because of her.
"How much is the rent?" Gu Ning asked.
"Well …" Du Laifeng thought for a while, and thought that he shouldn't ask for too much from Gu Ning. If he asked for too much, he would seem greedy, and Gu Ning wouldn't trust him.
Gu Ning understood his thoughts, so before Du Laifeng could say anything, Gu Ning opened her mouth. "Just pay the rent. I hate to be cheated, but I don't like to take advantage of others either."
Since Gu Ning said so, Du Laifeng gave her the best price. Gu Ning and Du Laifeng had the same idea.
After that, they signed the lease contract. Gu Ning signed it for five years.
Du Laifeng also signed a labor contract. He would have 10% shares of the branch of Xiangyun Antique-store in City B with a monthly salary of ten thousand yuan and a commission of 1% every month.
Although it was a small amount, if he bought an authentic antique, which was worth a million yuan, he would have to pay ten thousand yuan for it.
Of course, he might not be able to sell an authentic antique in several months, but it was possible that he could sell an authentic antique worth over ten million yuan.
If he could sell an authentic antique worth over ten million yuan, he would have to pay a hundred thousand yuan for it.
Therefore, it was a very good deal for Du Laifeng. In addition, Du Laifeng also had 10% shares of the branch of Xiangyun Antique-store in City B.
This 10% might even be worth tens of millions, as long as he could sell a lot of authentic products.
She didn't plan to run an antique store and leave it to its own devices. She also planned to participate in antique activities in the future to expose Xiangyun Antique-store and increase her popularity.
It was hard to find authentic antiques nowadays. As long as people knew that Xiangyun Antique-store had authentic antiques, they would be willing to buy them.
Du Laifeng didn't think further, because he was already shocked by the name of Xiangyun Antique-store.
People who worked in the antique industry were aware of the trend in the antique industry. Although Xiangyun Antique-store was located in the capital, the antique industry in City B.
She heard that Xiangyun Antique-store was auctioned a few days ago and changed its boss. After that, its business skyrocketed. Not only were its handicrafts beautiful, but there were also many authentic handicrafts.
In the contract, Gu Ning wrote that Xiangyun Antique-store was the branch of Xiangyun Antique-store in City B.
Du Laifeng rounded his eyes in shock. "Goddess Gu, are you the boss of Xiangyun Antique-store?"
"Yeah." Gu Ning calmly said, "I have many authentic handicrafts, but I can't put all of them in Xiangyun Antique-store in the capital. It's too eye-catching, so I plan to open a branch and put some of them in it."
Gu Ning said it casually, but Du Laifeng was shocked.
You have many authentic handicrafts? How many do you have? Ordinary antique stores nowadays were already very famous if they had several authentic handicrafts, because they were all worth a lot of money.
He heard that Xiangyun Antique-store had dozens of authentic handicrafts. This news shocked the entire antique street in the capital. Otherwise, how could it be spread so quickly?
Goddess Gu was indeed very rich.
After signing the contract, Gu Ning said to Du Laifeng, "You can clean up your store these days and register the remaining handicrafts. You can make money from them if you sell them, and I won't interfere."
Hearing that, Du Laifeng was surprised. He planned to directly put these handicrafts into Gu Ning's store, but to his surprise, Gu Ning was so generous.
Gu Ning added, "I'll send you the door plate of Xiangyun Antique-store later, and you can find a craftsman to make the same one for you. Carve a branch in City B on the lower left corner, in case people say that you stole it."
"No problem, boss," Du Laifeng said at once.
After they signed the contract, Du Laifeng changed the way he called Gu Ning. It wasn't because Gu Ning asked him to, but because he wanted to show that he cared about her more. In fact, it directly showed that they had a relationship before.
After that, Gu Ning transferred a year's rent to Du Laifeng. Although the contract was for five years, the rent had to be paid every year.
Du Laifeng also owned the branch of Xiangyun Antique-store in City B, so he didn't need to pay a deposit.
Before Gu Ning left, she noticed that someone was observing her store, so she was followed the moment she walked out.
Instead of being followed, it was more like being followed in public.
Once she walked out of the antique street, there were fewer people, so Gu Ning was stopped by someone.
"Miss, please wait a second," a woman in her forties stopped Gu Ning. She was dressed in ordinary clothes.
"Hi, what can I do for you?" Gu Ning stopped and asked with a cold attitude.
"Miss, I just saw you signing a contract with Du Laifeng in Duji Antique Store. You're renting his store, right? I think you'd better not rent it, or you'll be in trouble. " The woman pretended to be considerate of Gu Ning, but Gu Ning noticed the cunning look in her eyes.
There was nothing that Gu Ning didn't understand. If she guessed correctly, this woman must be Du Laifeng's stepmother. She must be here to stop Gu Ning from renting Du Laifeng's store.
Even so, Gu Ning still played along. "Why?"
The woman looked mysterious. She glanced around, like she was afraid that other people might hear her. She moved closer to Gu Ning and said in a low voice, "Because Du Laifeng offended some gangsters, and they said that no matter who rents his store, they'll cause you trouble."
At the mention of people from the underworld, the woman revealed a terrified expression.
That's right. How many ordinary people are not afraid of people from the underworld?
The woman thought that Gu Ning, a young girl, would be scared, but unexpectedly, Gu Ning wasn't affected at all. Instead, she remained calm, which confused the woman.
Could it be that she didn't know what it meant to be a gangster?
Thinking of that, the woman thought that Gu Ning was right, so she explained, "Gangsters are gangsters. What wouldn't a person like that do? If you're targeted by gangsters … You're so beautiful. You're so pretty, you definitely won't be able to escape their clutches. "
