Chapter 1111: So Snack Market and Snack Street Were Two Different Places?!

Chapter 1111: So Snack Market and Snack Street Were Two Different Places?!

The situation at the snack market was more or less settled. Pei Qian was prepared to go back and rest.

The snack market was not big but it was almost 4 PM by the time they were done walking around.

He was really tired from working so much today. He had to go back and eat something good and rest early.

Zhang Yahui handed the custom-made Cyberpunk-style notebook over. “Boss Pei, I’ll leave this notebook for you as a souvenir.”

Pei Qian did not want it at first. He did not even want to check in. Why would he want it?

However, he found it difficult to turn him down looking at Zhang Yahui’s expression. He still took it subconsciously.

Zhang Yahui and Liang Qingfan accompanied Boss Pei out.

However, as Pei Qian walked, he opened his laptop and flipped through it. Coincidentally, he found the page on the map of the snack market.

The map on the notebook was printed in advance. It could not be updated in real time like the map on the application.

Thus, there were a total of three maps drawn on this notebook. They represented the three stages in the plan for the snack market.

The first stage was the initial opening stage.

Only the region of the snack market was open, and the snack street was undergoing construction. It was gray.

It was very similar to opening a map in the game. Needless to say, it was probably Bao Xu’s idea.

At this stage, the ratings of various snack stalls would only be opened to gold-tiers and not diamond tiers because they could not be moved into independent shops in the snack street.

In the second stage, the first batch of shops at the snack street had been renovated. They could officially start operations.

At this stage, the snack stalls were opened to diamonds. The first batch of diamond vendors could move into the snack street and own independent shops. The opening of the snack street was less than a kilometer away.

In the third stage, all the shops in the snack street would be renovated and opened.

More diamond-tier snack stalls would be moved into independent shops. The snack stalls at the snack market would continue to absorb outstanding vendors from all over the country to supplement.

As diamond-tier stores, there was a need for further ratings between them. What’s more, once the entire street was connected, various interactive activities could be fully unfolded. Only then would the entire Cyberpunk Food Street be complete.

After reaching the third stage, the straight line of the snack street would be close to two kilometers. However, there would be some twists and turns along the way. The actual tour might be about 2.8 kilometers.

This also meant that the snack market and Thriller Hostel would be connected through the entire snack street.

Pei Qian stopped in his tracks, his mind filled with question marks.

???

He looked at Zhang Yahui on the left and Liang Qingfan on the right.

“This street… what’s going on?”

Zhang Yahui was stunned. “What do you mean what’s going on? Boss Pei, this is the ‘Cyberpunk Food Street’ that I’ve been talking about just now.”

Pei Qian was confused. “The snack market…”

Zhang Yahui pointed behind him. “This farming market is a snack market. The one outside is a snack street.”

Pei Qian: “…”

This was really messed up!

Zhang Yahui had mentioned the keyword ‘snack street’ many times before.

However, Pei Qian did not pay much attention to it.

He thought that “snack street” was just another name for “snack market”. Zhang Yahui did not pay attention to his words and used the wrong words.

However, he just realized that the snack street and snack market were two completely different concepts!

That was because Pei Qian’s initial idea was to make a snack market to settle these vendors. He did not intend to make such a big scene and change the entire street.

After Pei Qian handed this task to Zhang Yahui and Liang Qingfan, he did not ask anymore. He became an overseer entirely.

That was why he only realized that the snack market was only the starting point of the snack street. In the future, the entire street would be within the scope of the Cyberpunk Food Area!

What was even scarier was that this street was connected to the snack market and Thriller Hostel. It was a one-stop service from delicacies to amusement!

Pei Qian was silent.

That was definitely not his intention!

Thriller Hostel is currently a very famous tourist attraction in Jingzhou. Anyone who came to Jingzhou to travel would most likely visit the Thriller Hostel.

Even if they did not experience those particularly scary and exciting projects, he would at least play the Desperate Escape, which had the lowest degree of fright, the highest participation, and could be repeated. Then, he would walk around the Golden Maze and then wash his hands at the Healing Fountain.

The current state of Thriller Hostel might not be able to recover the initial investment but it already had a very healthy profit.

As an amusement park, this was already a rather dangerous situation.

That was because all the amusement parks in the world were long-term projects. They might not be able to recover their capital even if they were to continue operating for twenty to thirty years. However, its effect was long-term. It would continue to attract tourists from all over the country. It could boost the local tourism economy and promote the development of other industries.

Even if it was slower, they just had to keep driving it as long as it could generate profits.

What’s more, Thriller Hostel was still working hard on the roller coaster!

The roller coaster project would be completed in the next cycle. At that time, no matter how they tried to avoid it, they would definitely welcome a large number of tourists.

He thought about the state of the snack market and snack street…

The problem was huge!

After a moment of silence, Pei Qian said, “The idea of buying a street shouldn’t be Bao Xu’s…”

Liang Qingfan said, “Oh, no, that’s my idea.”

Pei Qian glanced at him.

Yes, luckily it was not Bao Xu this time.

Otherwise, he would have to put the moon landing plan on the agenda.

Zhang Yahui quickly said, “Boss Pei, let’s move now and walk to the snack street? The renovations might not be complete, but we can take a look at the general route.”

Pei Qian nodded.

Alright, since he was already here, he would be able to confirm the seriousness of this matter if he walked there personally.

Two kilometers was not a long distance. It would take about half an hour to walk.

It would take much longer if they were to eat and shop. It was normal for them to shop for an hour or two.

However, Pei Qian and the others were purely walking and looking at the route. Thus, they would be much faster.

Liang Qingfan introduced, “Boss Pei, there are still some cars available at the moment. However, we have already submitted an application to the relevant department and approved it.”

“Construction will be done on this road soon. After construction is complete, cars are strictly prohibited.”

“The construction of the road segment mainly includes renovations of the buildings’ face, brand advertisements, construction of Illuminati engineering, highlighting the business atmosphere, modifying the along-board facilities, and so on.”

“Of course, this renovation work has nothing to do with us. It was funded by the relevant departments in Jingzhou.”

“What’s more, during the construction process, they asked for our opinions and matched our shops’ style.”

“After all, this involves the transformation of the old industrial zone. The relevant departments are very supportive. They also want to use this opportunity to revive the economy of the old industrial zone and speed up the transition from the second industry to the third.”

Pei Qian: “When did this happen?”

Liang Qingfan said, “I only found out yesterday. I didn’t have the time to report it.”

Pei Qian: “…”

Good lord, how could I not know about such a huge matter?

He had just walked to the entrance of the food street, and yet he had already received such shocking news!

He could only say that Tengda’s employees had always been good at reporting bad news.

To Liang Qingfan, Tengda did not need to fork out a single cent or take on any responsibilities for the entire road construction. They only needed to make some suggestions. Was there any reason to reject such a good thing?

Pei Qian thought about it. Indeed, he could not reject it.

Even if Liang Qingfan told him in advance, he would probably only be helpless and furious.

Forget it, forget it.

The three of them continued walking along the food street.

The various shops were in different states. Some had already been renovated, some were not opened for business yet and some were still operating.

That was because different shops had different contracts. Some shops had to leave a certain amount of time for handover.

He felt nothing special after walking around.

These shops were basically the same. There was no difference before they were renovated.

All in all, the journey was indeed long. After walking for half an hour, his legs were almost sore. Only then did he reach the finish line.

They were almost at Thriller Hostel.

Pei Qian asked, “There are so many shops. The rent should be quite high, right?”

That was the only thing Pei Qian was concerned about.

The shops on this street were calculated based on the distance. Even if the rent of one shop was not high, it would add up to a lot.

Some of these shops were big and some were small. The biggest one was about the size of a small supermarket while the smallest one had a very narrow small door.

He estimated that there were about 50 shops in a kilometer. The entire route might be 2.8 kilometers, but they would pass by some shops after making multiple turns. Thus, there should be more than 150 shops.

The rent for the old industrial zone was very low, but Tengda was building large buildings here. Even a fool could tell that this place had a high commercial value.

The original average rent was about 2,000 yuan. It has to have risen to 3,000 or even 4,000 yuan now, right?

Based on this calculation, he would be able to spend about 500,000 yuan per month on rent. That was not even including expenses such as utilities and salaries.

It was not a lot of money but it was still an expense!

What’s more, the profits of the food street had been greatly reduced by Pei Qian. The prices of the snacks could not be any lower. Based on the current profits, they would definitely not be able to make ends meet. This rent would be pure expenses.

He felt much better at that thought.

Indeed, it was better to look at the problem from another angle. That would make him happier.

Liang Qingfan smiled. “The rent was still alright.”

“That’s because we signed long-term ten-year contracts with the shops. The rent is 50% higher than the original price. The rent for each shop is about 3,000 yuan on average.”

“What’s more, we’ve already bought about 40% of the shops here. We might have only sold them at a 50% premium but they’re all ours. We don’t have to worry about rent anymore.”
