2 Feb 2016, Tue 0:22J: Hello David. How are u? Only now arrived here in my housefrom Malate. 0:55J: Hello David, can I ask when u plan to send the money forpaying the rental shop and for buying some stuffs for ourbusiness? 13:05 D: Hi Jounio, I already transferred the money last Friday.

Get the shop!!!J: Yes David, I receive her message only now. Thank you, Imessage you when I got in the bank. D: Ok. p. 81

3 Feb 2016, Wed 11:31 D: Did you get the money? Mocha transferred to you yesterday! 11:44J: I‘m sorry for late reply David. I only get the only now be-cause I’m busy yesterday. Thank you David. D: No problem! It’s great to hear you get it! 12:06J: Thank you David! Always take care. I give you the newsafter I finish talking to the owner. D: Cool! I’m so excited to see the shop.J: Yes David me too.p. 82

5 Feb 2016, Fri 21:06J: David good evening how are u? Sorry I’m busy this past fewdays because I have a little problem. The problem is cannotget the place because me and the owner of the shop talkingand he don’t want to pay him a half of down payment and if Ipay the whole down payment I cannot start the business. I’mthinking if I convince him I pay a half of down payment I canbuy many stuffs. As of now I buy some stuffs. But for now themoney is not enough to rent like that place. And I plan first todo business like online selling through internet. And it’s ok ifthe name of the page is Yu Cheng Ta online selling? I hope uunderstand the situation. 21:15D: Hi Junio, it sounds sad, but how much should you pay for the rent? It’s not enough for that? I mean Online store is a different concept as what we dealed before. I think it’s better to have an actual space to run a rice shop and mini grocery store first. Internet can hold on. You can put internet machines afterward, no? 21:23J: Because the rent is 8,000/month and 3 months downpay-ment is 24,000, if I give it all the rest of money is only 6,000.And a mini grocery and rice shop is not enough money. I alsowant that place. D: Yes me too. I like the place.J: Because I need to put a rice box for the rice and grill for thewindow because it is dangerous if no grill because only glass. p. 83

21:33 D: How much you think you can make it for the place? If you also want to do it, you also have to think about other ways, I am more like the supporting role. 21:47 D: Anyways, don’t feel pressure! Just let me know when you have any plans for the business and we will find a way to fix it.J: Really I want that place. But I’m thinking rent is 8,000 amonth. And I searching another place not expensive. And Ithink the income of our shop putting only there in rental free. 21:55 D: So if we find a way, we still can rent it before Feb15?J: I let u know when I find another place David and we canmake it. D: Ok, Let me know.J: Yes we can still rent before Feb 15 David. D: You can have a look of other place. Or think about the plan if you want to keep the shop. 22:05J: Really David I’m in hurry to get that place. But also I needsome money to fix it that place. Tomorrow I talk to repairperson to renovate the shop and I let u know David how muchmoney to fix it.D: Ok, and also help me to ask Tokyo 88 or new man’s strip bar if they like to do a free advertisement as an exchange.J: I know in my mind and in my heart we can make it thatbusiness David. D: I think so too!p. 84

22:20J: Of course I help u to negotiate to Tokyo 88 bar or men’s stripbar. I promise that to u. Before I can not forget that. D: Ok! I have to go! Need to get up super early to go back to my home town for Chinese New Year. Keep me posted and take care!J: Ok David take a rest for tomorrow. Happy New Year! Thanksto you David! p. 85

7 Feb 2016, Sun 13:28J: Hello David good afternoon. Good vibes. David I tell u aboutmy plan in our shop. And now finish thinking plan 100 times.And now this is my plan. No.1 30t for the product of minigrocery and rice product. No.2 24t downpayment for our shop.No.3 16t for renovation, grills, permit, and other expenses.And now we need 40t to start our business David. 14:33 D: Good afternoon Junio! Thanks for the plan, and I like the 100 times part. I understand how much we need to spend to start the business. As our deal, I can provide the 50t for the business for sure. But I might not provide whole budget for the business as this shop need to spend. What’s your idea to get the extra? 16:00J: David my idea now is this The remaining in 50t is 20t canproduce lot. And the remaining extra 10t can I barrow from u?And I pay u back in March when u arrive here in manila. Davidcan I ask u can u send me money 30t and my money is 10t allin all is 40t And we can start the business before Feb 15. 16:17 D: Got it and I will think about it! The problem now is from yesterday until next Sunday will be the Chinese New Year.
