A 50-year-old man is reborn and becomes a complete slacker, leaving his scumbag children completely

Unfortunately, there weren't many self-employed individuals at that time.

Therefore, there aren't many people who open shops and then sublet them.

The two wandered around the streets for a long time, but still couldn't find a suitable place.

Just as he was about to give up, Hu Dahai noticed a house facing the street nearby. Everyone else was eager to turn their street-facing houses into shops, but this one was completely enclosed by walls.

Although this place isn't a very popular or crowded area, if it were converted into shops, there would probably still be some tenants.

Hu Dahai asked the cleaning lady on the street out of curiosity, "Ma'am, why doesn't the owner of this house, in such a good location, open a shop?"

If we're talking about who knows this place best, it's naturally the cleaning lady who sweeps here every day.

When the aunt saw that Hu Dahai was so young, yet he called her "elder sister," her attitude improved considerably.

She stopped sweeping altogether and, leaning on the broom, said to Hu Dahai, "Young man, you don't know, this house is a haunted house. Nobody dares to buy it, let alone open a shop here."

"Huh? A haunted house?" Hu Dahai didn't react, but Huang Yunya behind him panicked; she was terrified of ghosts.

The cleaning lady began to speak eloquently: "That's right. The original owner of this house bought it, and less than a month later, his daughter hanged herself. Then he sold the house at a lower price."

"The next landlord bought the house because it was cheap, even though he knew it was a haunted house. But what he didn't expect was that his wife would also fall seriously ill and die suddenly a few days later. The landlord moved out overnight."

"Two people died in this house in a very short period of time. Everyone is scared. Who would dare to buy this house? Even the two shops next door have reduced their rents significantly."

Upon hearing this, Hu Dahai suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."

He nodded and said to the cleaning lady, "Ma'am, do you know how to contact the owner of this house? I want to buy this shop."

"What?"

Two exclamations came directly from beside Hu Dahai.

One was the cleaning lady, and the other was Huang Yunya.

Neither of them expected that Hu Dahai would dare to buy the house even though he knew it was haunted.

"Brother Dahai, if we buy the shop here, won't it cause people to be afraid to buy clothes from us?" Huang Yunya said in a trembling voice. Just thinking about selling clothes in a haunted house made her goosebumps rise on her arms.

Hu Dahai smiled and reassured her, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I'll handle this problem properly."

He turned to the still-stunned cleaning lady and asked again, "Ma'am, do you know where the landlord is?"

The cleaning lady was now wondering if she hadn't explained things clearly enough, which might have led to Hu Dahai's misunderstanding.

But after repeatedly reflecting on what she had just said, she realized that what she said was not wrong.

She said incredulously, "I know, I know, but you really want to buy it? This is a haunted house?"

Hu Dahai smiled and said, "Do I look like I'm joking? As long as the price is right, I'll naturally buy it. If I buy this house, I'll give you 100 yuan as a tip."

The cleaning lady looked at Hu Dahai's serious face and was also a little confused.

There really are such fools who want to buy haunted houses right away.

But considering that the person was willing to give her 100 yuan as a reward for her hard work, the cleaning lady couldn't bring herself to refuse.

She said awkwardly, "Okay, I'll take you there. The landlord lives not far ahead."

Hu Dahai was overjoyed, and the three of them, led by the cleaning lady, arrived at the other end of the alley.

I met the landlord of the house in a place about the same size as this room.

When I heard that someone was coming to buy the house.

The landlord quickly turned around and closed the door, clearly indicating that he didn't want to let these fat sheep get away.

This house not only caused him to lose his wife, but also left him with a dead house.

Now, houses are not only unsellable, but they can't even be rented out. They're just sitting there, simply depreciating in value.

When someone finally offered to buy his house, he was naturally overjoyed.

"If you want to buy this house, just name your price." He looked at Hu Dahai with a fawning smile.

He didn't dare to offer a price, fearing that if he offered too high a price, Hu Dahai would turn around and leave.

"Huh." Hu Dahai was taken aback; there were actually people selling houses like this.

However, he certainly wouldn't be the first to offer a price, because when it comes to offering a price, whoever speaks first will reveal their bottom line.

"You decide. If the price is right, we'll take it. If it's too high, we'll look at other options," Hu Dahai said.

"Sigh." The landlord sighed and gestured, "I bought it for 100,000 back then, but it seems impossible to sell it for the original price now, so how about 50,000? What do you guys think?"

He immediately offered half the original price, but Hu Dahai certainly didn't believe he had actually bought it for 100,000.

So he tried to negotiate a lower price with the landlord.

Unexpectedly, the landlord tearfully cut the price down by another ten thousand.

In the end, Hu Dahai got a great deal: he bought a street-facing house for 4 yuan, which, with a little renovation, could be turned into a decent shop.

When Hu Dahai left the landlord's place, he didn't forget to give the cleaning lady 100 yuan.

The cleaning lady was surprised that Hu Dahai was actually willing to pay, and thanked him repeatedly, saying, "You really keep your word. If you open a shop in the future, I will definitely help you find business. The cleanliness in front of your shop will definitely be the best on the whole street."

The cleaning lady happily went home with ten ten-yuan bills in her hand.

Hu Dahai and Huang Yunya, who looked completely dazed, were left behind.

"Big Brother Dahai, you're really buying this house? Aren't you afraid?"

Huang Yunya's voice trembled as she spoke.

"Afraid? Why should I be afraid?" Hu Dahai smiled and said, "There is no such thing as a haunted house in this world. It's just that they were unlucky and two people died in a row."

"Believe me, as long as our shop is well-decorated and people come and go, everyone will soon forget about this whole thing," Hu Dahai said with a smile. "Besides, you'll be one of the owners then, so you won't have to be in the shop all the time."

With Hu Dahai's comforting words, Huang Yunya gradually breathed a sigh of relief, secretly vowing that she would never go to this store alone at night again.

With the shop secured, Hu Dahai immediately began the shop's renovation.

Hu Dahai dismantled everything that was originally in the house.

This is a two-story building. The first floor is used to sell clothes, and the second floor is used as a warehouse. If it is expanded later, the second floor can also be used for display.

As for the street-facing side of the shop, Hu Dahai used floor-to-ceiling glass.

This way, anyone walking by can easily see what's being sold inside.

After Hu Dahai shared his blueprint and plans with the renovation workers, the renovation work commenced in full swing.

Because the shop area was not large, and Hu Dahai provided enough money, the renovation work was completed quickly in just half a month.

During this period, Hu Dahai and Huang Yunya also bought enough plastic mannequins and solid wood mannequins to display the clothing.

On the day the renovation was completed, Huang Yunya came over to take a look. At first, she thought Hu Dahai would design a very traditional style.

She never expected Hu Dahai to have such aesthetic sense. The renovated shop was a complete eye-opener for her.

Its bright and cheerful decor was completely different from any other clothing store on the street. Huang Yunya had never seen a women's clothing store with such a strong sense of technology and modernity.

Huang Yunya looked at the bright and cheerful shop with great satisfaction, but when she looked at the shop entrance, she noticed that something was missing.

This shop doesn't have a storefront yet.

"Brother Dahai, what should we name this shop?"
