Chapter 53 Repair Shop

There is a cutting machine at the construction site, and the safe was finally opened after a zombie spent an hour cutting it.

Lu Chuan raised his chin in great interest.

There's no way, I haven't seen the world, and Lu Chuan doesn't know what the local tyrants' safes will contain.

Even millions of gold can be thrown in the drawer, presumably the contents of this safe are more valuable.

Under Lu Chuan's micro-control, a zombie opened the safe, but there were neatly coded dollars, or more than one million.

In addition, a box contains a pair of glass bracelets.

In another wooden box, there is a palm-sized ceramic bottle, which is extremely beautiful. With just a glance, Lu Chuan was sure that this should be an antique, otherwise it would be impossible to carefully put it in the safe.

In addition to this, there are several diamond necklaces.

A thick stack of real estate certificates and some asset documents are of no use to Lu Chuan at all.

Of course, a ledger attracted Lu Chuan's attention.

After taking it out and opening it, Lu Chuan didn't seem to understand the numbers he saw, but the numbers above ranged from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions, which was astonishing.

Lu Chuan took a look at it, and the number on this ledger was no less than 200 million.

but……

The next moment, Lu Chuan threw the account book into the garbage.

Before the end of the world, this ledger is very important. But now it's the end of the world, and the people involved are almost dead. What's the trick? Who will be involved?

Even if people are alive now, it is the end of the world, who cares about these?

In the apocalypse, there is still investigation...I have nothing to do when I am full.

He put all the valuables in the safe into his storage space, and Lu Chuan was satisfied with the harvest.

There is no way to rummage one by one.

The biochemical factory is 2 kilometers away. Although there is a gold shop, it has been looted by survivors once, and there are not many left. Only when such a household is very cumbersome, they give up.

If you want money, you can only think of a way.

Lu Chuan also understands that this method is a non-renewable resource. Once searched, there is no more.

For the biochemical factory, one hundred thousand zombies, this kind of search is just a drop in the bucket.

Lu Chuan did not intend to use these funds to create zombies, but as start-up funds.

…………

Daihatsu auto repair shop.

Lu Chuan got off the taxi and looked at the big door, but the cheesy name was golden.

As one of the top international metropolises in China, Handong City has an absolutely astonishing number of vehicles, and the streets are almost full of all kinds of cars.

A car repair shop, the location is suitable, the business is still very impressive.

In front of the Daihatsu auto repair shop, its location is not good, but it is not bad. Looking around, it was full of cars waiting to be repaired, at least twenty or thirty.

The 4S shop has after-sales service, and most of the people who really come here to repair are cars that have expired.

Compared with the high cost of 4S shops, this type of auto repair shop is much more affordable.

"Huzi, I'm here, the door."

Lu Chuan called Zhao Hu, who was a repairman inside, and a loud voice came from inside.

Moments later, a large young man in a blue technical uniform ran out.

With a height of 1.8 meters, and a physique with a strong waist, Zhao Hu is full of a sturdy taste.

Those who are familiar with him know that Zhao Hu has to have a shell, but his personality is simple and honest, and he will never blush with you unless it is a last resort.

Of course, if he really irritated him, the consequences would be equally serious. As far as he admits his truth and his body, few ordinary people really are his opponents.

Zhao Hu is a native of Lu Chuan's neighboring village. He is only separated from Lu Chuan's village by a small stream. He has played with Lu Chuan since childhood.

After graduating from high school, Zhao Hu's name fell to Sun Shan, so he switched to auto repair.

When Lu Chuan was a junior, Zhao Hu graduated and worked in this Dafa auto repair shop. Due to his solid repair skills, he has been promoted to the status of a master in just two years.

In the same city, they are playmates of childhood. Lu Chuan and Zhao Hu are naturally in constant contact and always get together from time to time.

"Brother Lu Chuan." Zhao Huhan laughed.

…………

A breakfast shop next to the Daihatsu garage.

The two were not so particular about it. They sat in front of the low table, and each ordered a bowl of noodles to eat.

Zhao Hu's salary is not bad, he can get about 5,000 per month. Just like Lu Chuan, the family conditions are a bit poor. The mainstay of the family has fallen to Zhao Hu since he joined the job. Usually, he only has a thousand money left, and the rest is called to the family.

One thousand yuan, it may not be able to feed people in Handong City, so naturally it will not be so particular.

After eating, Zhao Hu said, "Brother Lu Chuan, why are you so free to come and play with me this time?"

"Huzi, tell me about your current repair shop." Lu Chuan didn't make a detour, he just asked.

Zhao Hu scratched his head and said, "Brother Lu Chuan, I don't know how to start."

Lu Chuan thought about it too. His question was too general, so he changed the question: "How many cars does the repair shop usually have to repair, or in other words, do you understand the operation of the repair shop?"

Talking about this, Zhao Hu said it one by one.

In a repair shop, in fact, the most important thing is the master, and everything else is second.

The fixed assets of the repair shop, except for the same workshop as this factory, are a few lifts and a painting workshop, four-wheel alignment, etc., and there are not many fixed assets.

Invest a few hundred thousand and you're almost done.

There are three masters and seven apprentices in the Daihatsu auto repair shop.

Two receptionists at the front desk and one technical supervisor.

All in all, there are thirteen employees in the entire Daihatsu auto repair shop.

A small-scale repair shop, with eleven people, cannot be said to be small.

From Zhao Hu's remarks, the average monthly expenditure is only 40,000 yuan for labor. The rent here is 50,000 yuan a month, including utilities and other miscellaneous expenses. If you earn less than 100,000 yuan a month, you will lose money.

It looks like it is booming inside, but in fact, the condition of the Daihatsu auto repair shop is barely making ends meet.

"Huzi, you said that if the parts used by the repair shop are dismantled, will the customer object?" Lu Chuan touched his chin and asked a crucial question.

Zhao Hu said: "Disassembly? How many repair shops do you have now that don't need to be dismantled? A dismantled part costs half the price of a new one. Some dismantled parts only last two or three years, which is no worse than a new one. "

"Take the engine as an example, what is the price of replacing a brand new engine? This price is higher than the price of the old car."

"Don't change?"

"If you don't change it, buy a new car."

"But it's different with dismantled parts. I dismantle an engine from other cars and spend a small amount of money to do a big thing. Anyway, there is nothing to say about the quality. The price is only half or even one-third of a brand new engine. "

"Besides, are new and new parts really brand new? There are many refurbished parts on the market now."

As soon as he said this, Zhao Hu opened the conversation.

Regarding the auto repair industry, Zhao Hu is not a newcomer, and he has long known the tricks.

With this information in hand, Lu Chuan basically has a bottom line.

This time I came to Zhao Hu, mainly because Zhao Hu had always complained to him about his boss's inability to make progress, and always wanted to change careers and sell this car repair shop.

Controlling enough information, Lu Chuan laughed: "Huzi, if you were asked to manage the repair shop, would you dare?"

"What?" Zhao Hu didn't understand.

Lu Chuan didn't talk much about this topic, but stood up, stretched, and said, "Huzi, take me to talk to your boss."
