The flow of people in the busier blocks is higher, and the rent will be relatively higher. But the flow of people directly determines the income after the opening of the store, only with incomes the store can continue.

As for the furniture used in the store, in view of the relatively simple decoration, we try to choose high-end furniture, so as to restore the first impression of customers.
