Chapter 698: Renting a house to live in
When the shopkeeper heard that they didn't plan to live in their inn at all, their faces were not very good-looking.
"There is a small yard, but the price is not cheap." However, although they were reluctant to live in their own inn, the small courtyard they were looking for happened to have one of them. However, it was also added by himself from his wife's private house outside, and it has been vacant until now, and it is appropriate to take it out now.
"The shopkeeper has the right one on hand?" It's not that Song Li doesn't believe what the shopkeeper said, it's just that he doesn't look like the shopkeeper is there, but maybe he can't say if he looks away.
The shopkeeper snorted coldly, "Dabao, you look at the inn, I'll take a few guest officers out for a while." "The shopkeeper heard that Song Li didn't believe what he said, so he planned to take Song Li to see it in person.
Since the shopkeeper is willing to lead the way, of course, it is the best.
"Thank you so much to the shopkeeper." Song Li bowed to the shopkeeper.
Song Li's politeness made the shopkeeper who was not optimistic about them blush at first, and this person didn't look so annoying.
"Come with me!"
The small courtyard that the shopkeeper said was not very far from the inn, probably two streets. And although the area of this small courtyard is not very large, it is a good place to be quiet in the middle of the noise.
"How?" Of course, Song Li's happy shopkeeper in their eyes could also see that this house might not be able to be bought if it weren't for his connections. You must know that the houses in the capital are all every inch of land, but you can't get them with silver. But this rule is also for them ordinary people, and the really powerful people certainly don't care about this.
"Sure enough." Of course Song Li was very satisfied, but seeing that the shopkeeper was so familiar with the house, presumably the owner of the house should be an old acquaintance with him. "I wonder how much this house costs?" Although the house seems familiar to the owner, it has nothing to do with her.
Because of Song Li's appearance when he was in the inn before, the shopkeeper didn't give Song Li a too high price. "Thirty taels of silver a month is enough, but you have to solve the three meals a day by yourself."
Thirty taels of silver, if they can build a good house in their living water village, it's a pity that in the capital, this is just a month's rent for a small house.
The shopkeeper saw that Song Li did not express his position, and thought that he was not very satisfied with the price of this rent. sighed in my heart, didn't I expect that this result of looking like a human being couldn't even give thirty taels of silver?
"I'll rent this house for half a year." Just when the shopkeeper's plan was not to drop the price a little, Song Li's answer caught the shopkeeper off guard. The originally indifferent face was immediately replaced with a smile, "What you said is true?" Even the tone was a lot more polite.
The shopkeeper's attitude can be regarded as human nature, so Song Li doesn't care too much about the shopkeeper's opinion.
"It's a deposit." Song Li didn't want to waste too much energy looking for a house, and this house was still in line with his heart, as for the price, this little bit of money was not within Song Li's consideration.
After the shopkeeper put away the deposit given by Song Li, he smiled all over his face. "This is the key, I'll give you this house."
Mo Chun took the key, and the shopkeeper looked at Song Li, but then thought that even if these three people came from a small place, this person was also the master of the other two after all, and it was normal for him to hold his own identity. When I think about it like this, the shopkeeper's heart is much better.
The shopkeeper took Song Li and they left after a circle in the house, Song Li and them were so tired that they didn't have the extra energy to visit the house they were going to live in the capital for nearly half a year.
Song Li lived in a room alone, but because there had been no one in the room for a long time, there was a faint musty smell. Song Li opened the window to let the musty smell drift away, and then took out a spray from his space that could remove the musty smell. After the musty smell in the room cleared, Song Li took out a brand-new quilt from the space and spread it on the bed.
This quilt was originally bought by Song Li and prepared to be prepared, but because it has been placed in the space, it has not been used, but he did not expect it to come in handy today.
After a night's rest, Song Li's spirit improved a lot, and so did Mo Chun and Qiao Dalang.
"Our main purpose today is to gather intelligence and do market research." Song left the road.
The two of them can still understand the intelligence, but they don't know what it is when they do the market research. But soon Song Li explained it to them.
"Mo Chun kept a record of all the shops that sold rouge, including their varieties and the customers who came and went, as well as the needs of the customers."
"Dalang, collect information from all the garment shops and cloth shops in the same way as the rouge shops."
As for Song Li, she planned to go to the gambling house to have a look, after all, the gambling house is the fastest place to get money.
"Yes," the three of them split up.
After Xia Mingyuan rested for the night, he remembered the new friends he had made yesterday, and thought that maybe he could continue to play with them, so he sent someone to invite someone to Xiahou Mansion. However, the conclusion was that the person had already left the inn.
"Gone? It's a shame. Xia Mingyuan said.
"Eldest son, I see Miss Ji coming, aren't you here?" Although there were willow trees on the side of the lotus pond, Ji Qian's figure was quickly discovered.
Xia Mingyuan secretly sighed that his luck was really bad, but he still greeted him with a smile.
"Cousin."
"Cousin." Ji Qian's face was shy, although her cousin was not cold to herself on weekdays, but it seemed that she had never taken the initiative to greet her today, so Ji Qian's heart was still very excited.
"I don't know where my cousin wants to go?" Xia Mingyuan said.
For Xia Mingyuan's inquiry, Ji Qian was of course happy.
"Feiluan and I are going to go for a walk on the street, is my cousin willing to go with us?" Ji Qian's expectant little eyes stared at Xia Mingyuan so directly.
Xia Mingyuan secretly complained in his heart, telling you to hide just now, but you still have to make up, isn't this taking the initiative to give others a chance? However, even if Xia Mingyuan was unwilling in his heart, he couldn't say it at this time.
"If my cousin doesn't feel annoyed, then it's better to be respectful than to obey my fate." Xia Mingyuan said.
Ji Qian didn't expect that Xia Mingyuan would really agree to go to the street with her, how could her cousin ever do this to herself? Could it be that he has finally discovered his goodness? Planning to be with yourself?
So sometimes you really have to pay attention, otherwise the little kindness you release will be easy to make up for by people's brains.
