Chapter 782 I'll accompany you for a while and help you think about it

Even though she had seen the slavery system in some countries, Qiao Ran couldn't help but express sympathy for these poor people.

Shopkeeper Chen was already used to it, he didn't even look at those people, just waved his hand:

"I'm not looking to buy anyone. Today I'm bringing someone to buy a shop. Miss Qiao, this is my distant cousin Chen Shun. He has to call me uncle, so you don't have to be too polite to him."

"Chen Shun, this is Miss Qiao, the recently famous Great Doctor Qiao, and the future Crown Prince Consort of my employer. You must help Miss Qiao choose a good shop with affordable prices, and don't be perfunctory, otherwise I will not forgive you!"

When the fat man Chen Shun heard this, his attitude immediately became several degrees more respectful, and he quickly bent down to greet him:

"I have met the future Crown Prince's Consort!"

Qiao Ran was stunned for a moment, then smiled and waved her hands:

"No need to do that. Just follow Shopkeeper Chen and call me Miss Qiao! I want to ask if you have a bigger shop here, probably about the same size as yours, or even bigger. It should be in a better location, with a high flow of people, where rich people gather, not near prostitutes."

When Chen Shun heard that she wanted to buy such a big shop, he immediately smiled.

The bigger the shop and the better the location, the higher the selling price and the more commission you can earn. Who wouldn't want that?

"Yes, yes, yes! Miss Qiao, I'm not exaggerating, but there is no house or shop in the entire capital that I, Chen Shun, can't find. Please tell me what kind of business this shop is mainly used for, so that I can introduce you to a suitable one."

When Qiao Ran told him about her plan to open a produce supermarket, Chen Shun pondered for a moment, probably comparing in his mind which sources of shops would be more suitable.

Then he asked Qiao Ran and Shopkeeper Chen to wait for a moment and went into the counter to get a bunch of keys.

"Miss Qiao, I have two shops that are more suitable for what you said. I'll take you to have a look first and you can compare them. If you don't like either of them, I'll take you to see other shops."

"Okay, I'll trouble you then."

Qiao Ran nodded in agreement, then turned to Shopkeeper Chen and said:

"Manager Chen, thank you for bringing me here. If you are busy, please go back to the restaurant first! I will thank you again some other day."

Shopkeeper Chen said with a smile:

"Miss Qiao, you are too polite. It's just a small favor. I am not busy now, so I will accompany you and help you with the details."

"Okay! Thank you! You have more experience than me, I'd really like to trouble you to help me with some advice."

Qiao Ran was also very happy to hear this. After all, Manager Chen was the head manager of one of the major restaurants in Beijing. He should know better than herself how to choose a good store.

So Shopkeeper Chen and Qiao Ran both got on the carriage, driven by Chen Shun, and headed for the busy street.

Originally, Qiao Ran wanted to drive the car herself, but Chen Shun was very perceptive. Besides, he was also very scared. He was just a lowly brothel worker. How could he dare to trouble the great doctor Qiao, the future prince's consort, to drive for him? That would shorten his life!

So Qiao Ran couldn't persuade him and had to get on the carriage with Manager Chen.

However, after seeing the two so-called popular shops that Chen Shun mentioned, Qiao Ran was not very satisfied.

There is a store that is a bit small, and it used to be a pharmacy. It has many small cabinets and the layout is not very reasonable.

The second store was not in a very good location, as it was close to the north city gate, where most of the people and even slums gathered, which was not the target customer group for the store.

Seeing that Qiao Ran was not satisfied with either of these two shops, Chen Shun's original confidence was somewhat dampened.

In his opinion, these two shops best met Miss Qiao's requirements.

He frowned and continued to search for the source information he had memorized in his mind. Suddenly his eyes lit up, but then he hesitated again.

Seeing Chen Shun like this, Qiao Ran asked:

"Mr. Chen, is there a better shop?"

"This……"

Chen Shun looked at Shopkeeper Chen standing beside him, not knowing how to start the conversation.

Shopkeeper Chen urged unhappily:

"Just say what you want to say. Why are you hesitating like that?"
