The next day, Su Wen came back to the small town.
Since the real estate agents were too afraid of Song Xincai to show Su Wen any properties, he decided to go directly to the shop owners himself.
Unexpectedly, most of the shop owners in town had been overtly or covertly threatened by Song Xincai's cronies, who claimed that anyone who dared to rent their storefront to Su Wen would have to face the consequences.
Under the threat of these cronies, the residents of the town were too scared to rent out their properties to Su Wen for his business.
However, perseverance paid off, and Su Wen found an owner who had moved to the provincial city, leaving only a phone number on the shop with a "for rent" sign.
"If I rent it to you, I'm afraid Song Xincai might burn it down in the middle of the night. How about this, I'll just sell it to you and you can bear any losses,"
that was the offer Su Wen got over the phone. After discussing the price, they agreed to a deal for 1.5 million yuan.
