Chapter 22: Leaving the House (4)
"Another shop is not far from here, just in front of it, and the owner of this shop is going to sell it. ”
A few people turned a corner, and they saw the shop that Zirao said, the owner of the shop was probably in a hurry to sell it, and now the store is empty, there is no signboard hanging, and Su Miao can't see what this shop does.
The sharp-eyed owner of the store saw the three of them, and walked out, his own family is no longer in business, and those who can stand here will definitely not be customers, and the young lady wearing the veil outside must also come to see his store.
"Did Miss come to see our store?"
Su Miao looked at the middle-aged man with an honest face who walked in front of her, and knew in her heart that this should be the owner of this shop.
"Yes, can the boss take me in and have a look?" asked Su Miao.
"Yes, yes, yes, please give Miss a rough introduction to the layout of this store. The contemptible surname is Hou, and the young lady's surname is noble?"
The boss turned around and walked to the store with the three of them in front, introducing himself to Su Miao by the way.
Su Miao followed behind Boss Hou, looked at the somewhat empty storefront, and responded, "Don't be expensive, your surname is Su." ”
The honest and honest Boss Hou nodded with a smile, "Miss Su, the layout of our store is still simple, and now the place where we are standing is what I usually use to sell goods, that is, to write gadgets and porcelain or something." ”
Su Miao looked at Boss Hou's eyes, this store is still quite large, and there is no complicated pattern, it is in a boxy shape.
When the time comes, you can set up some counters and set them up a little.
Boss Hou saw that Su Miao was almost there, and walked in again.
"Miss Su, go inside with me again. Inside is a small courtyard, which I originally prepared for the guys who worked in the store, and there are about ten rooms, although each room is smaller, but it can still accommodate about 20 people. ”
The boss walked to the courtyard at the back and pointed to Su Miao.
Su Miao was amazed at the design of this small courtyard, which was somewhat like a modern courtyard house, and there was an osmanthus tree in the middle of the courtyard.
Su Miao had some surprise in her eyes, she didn't expect that there would be such a hole behind the small shop, if she recruited workers in the future, she would be able to let them live here.
Boss Hou saw Su Miao's satisfied look, and felt that his store could still be sold, so he introduced Su Miao more enthusiastically.
Raising his hand and pointing to the other corner of the courtyard, "There is also a well over there, if the young lady recruits someone in the future, it will be convenient for those guys to live here." They cook their own meals and save money on the store. ”
After all, Boss Hou is a businessman, and he can consider more interests.
Su Miao looked even more satisfied, and praised with a smile: "Boss Hou is worthy of being a businessman." This shop is very close to my heart. ”
When Zi Rao and Lian Xin heard Su Miao's words, they knew that this shop was basically settled, and some excited expressions appeared on their faces.
When Boss Hou heard this, his smile cracked even wider, and it was not in vain that he worked hard to introduce, and after waiting for so many days, this shop was finally able to sell.
"Miss Su has won the award, Miss Su has good eyesight, this shop is on the street, and the number of people passing by every day can be described as large, Miss Su must be a source of money for this shop!"
Su Miao listened to the boss's last praise of her shop, and the corners of her mouth were lightly raised, and she didn't stop it.
After the boss finished speaking, he asked: "The boss can hear that he is also a cheerful person, I wonder how much the boss of this shop plans to bid?"
When Boss Hou heard this, he sighed leisurely and explained: "To be honest, something happened to the elders in the family and they urgently needed silver, so I was in a hurry to sell this shop." ”
"Because my shop has a yard and faces the street, the price is higher. But most of the people who wanted to buy the shop heard the offer and left directly. ”
Boss Hou's face was a little embarrassed.
said to Su Miao: "I'm really in a hurry, I'll sell it to Miss Su for 1,500 taels, how about it?"
The two maids secretly gasped when they heard the price, staring at Su Miao, not knowing what their young lady would do.
Su Miao frowned, this price is still within her budget, this shop has a yard, and the price is worth it.
Boss Hou looked at Su Miao silently, a little anxious, "Miss Su, I am also a businessman, you will definitely not lose money if you sell it to Miss Su at this price." ”
He gritted his teeth and continued: "In this way, I will leave the counters and display shelves that I just moved out yesterday to take away. Miss Su, don't worry, I only let people do them last year, and I will never lie to you!"
"As you can guess, if it weren't for the value of these things, I wouldn't have let them move. ”
Boss Hou almost patted his chest to prove it.
Su Miaosong's expression eased, and he said with a smile: "Then let's talk about it." When will Boss Hou sign the paperwork for the transfer of the store?"
"I'll let someone plan it first, and Miss Su will come over at this time tomorrow. ”
When Boss Hou heard that Su Miao agreed to buy this shop, the big stone in his heart instantly fell to the ground, raised his sleeve and wiped the sweat from nervousness.
Su Miao heard the time agreed by Boss Hou, and also said goodbye with a smile, promising to come back tomorrow.
The two maids didn't come back to their senses when they left the store, and they couldn't believe that their young lady had just bought a shop.
Su Miao looked funny: "Don't think about it, the money that my grandmother gave yesterday is enough to buy this shop, we will come over tomorrow, now let's go and see the homeless people first." ”
Su Miao looked at the sun that had risen and urged.
The two maids came back to their senses, and then remembered the task they had come out of this time, and hurriedly took Su Miao to the place where the carriage stayed.
Su Miao got into the carriage and heard Zi Rao give a few words to the coachman outside, and the carriage began to drive slowly.
......
It didn't take long for Su Miao and his party to arrive at the closest place to the general's mansion where the homeless people gathered.
"Miss wait first, and Lianxin and I will go down and ask first. ”
Su Miao didn't respond, looking at the situation outside the car window.
The situation outside is not optimistic, and it feels like half of the displaced people have gathered here.
It was originally a temple, but then the people who offered the incense gradually went to another temple that heard about the spirit, and this temple gradually fell into disrepair.
It has become a place where these displaced people can still shelter from the wind and rain.
Su Miao looked a little sad, those homeless people leaned against the wall weakly, and some slightly smaller children cried in their mother's arms, and their mother was whispering on the side.
In addition, the older children sat on the ground with their eyes closed, and could feel more breath coming in than they were entering, and the amplitude of the chest rise and fall was so small that it was almost invisible.
Although there are passers-by on the road, everyone is still running for their own livelihood, and no one has much resources to leave for others.
At this time, the two maids also trotted back: "Miss, the situation is not very good, the slaves and maids have just entered the temple and counted roughly, and there are almost two hundred people here." ”
Su Miao's face was gloomy, this situation was even more serious than she thought, and she took off the purse that she tied around her waist when she thought about it.
"I just saw a shop selling steamed buns in front of me, Zirao, you go and buy them all first. Then give some silver to Lotus Heart, and let her go find some water. ”
The two maids were also sour when they saw the situation in the temple, and immediately went to leave quickly to prepare food and water.
