My Shop Thrived Even More After the Rent Hike

About the story

A couple running a small breakfast shop works tirelessly, and their attentive management makes the business thrive, with a steady stream of customers every day. As the lease approaches its end, however, the landlord abruptly triples the rent from 60,000 to 180,000 yuan. A heated dispute follows. The shopkeepers argue that they built the business through their own efforts, know the local rental market and are willing to pay a reasonable price. But the landlord refuses to budge, leaving the family facing the very real problem of renewing their shop's lease.
