Chapter 66: Pan Puzi (II)
() Cheng Bo paid a deposit of two taels of silver on behalf of Liu Qin, and instructed Jiang to wait for the letter in the house.
Before leaving, Liu Qin asked Master Jiang to bring the jar wine again, ready to take it back and invite his father to drink, and by the way, public relations. These two jars of wine Jiang and his wife resolutely did not accept the money, only said that it was given to them to drink, Liu Qin was very emotional, this Jiang couple is also honest people.
They left the tavern, and the Jiang couple went all the way to the place where the carriage was parked at the entrance of the alley, and Liu Qin looked at the house next to the tavern facing the entrance of the alley, the door was locked, as if no one lived there, so he asked about the situation of the house.
Jiang Wang said that the family had left Wucheng to go to another place, and it had been empty for more than half a year, and I heard that it had been stored in the tooth store for sale, perhaps because the location was not good, so it had not been sold.
Liu Qin nodded, already thinking about it.
Because Master Liu was still in the yamen, Liu Qin didn't bother him, anyway, Master Liu would definitely go to Zhuangzi to see them in two days, so the group got into the carriage and went back to Zhuangzi directly.
After returning to Zhuangzi, the more Cheng Bocai thought about it, the more inappropriate it became, thinking that Liu Qin had repeatedly told him not to say it after going back, and he really didn't dare to tell the old lady in person, after all, it was really unreasonable for him to do this, because of good wine, he was bewitched by a little doll in a daze.
Uncle Cheng was remorseful there, Liu Qin returned to Zhuangzi, and immediately acted vigorously, calling Xingsheng Ankang and Datong to Jiang Li's house, Fang Nuo was naturally there, Xiao Wu became the background board, anyway, he followed Liu Qin wherever he went, rarely spoke or expressed his opinions, as if other people's affairs had nothing to do with him.
Liu Qin made three important instructions, the first tomorrow Fang Nuo took Changxing Changsheng to the tavern again, and signed the employment document with the Jiang couple, as for the form of the document, please refer to the document style signed between Datong and Liufu.
Second, go to the tooth shop and ask the house near the entrance of the alley, how much silver is needed to buy it, if the price is right, you can pay a deposit in advance, and the three of them will discuss and decide with reference to the surrounding prices.
The third is to contact the owner of the tavern shop, the third is based on the second success, that is, if you can buy the first one, then talk to the owner of the tavern about renewing the lease or buying, if the first one is not bought or is bought by someone else, there is no need to renew the lease, Liu Qin has to consider changing places to do the business of the wine shop.
Liu Qin's words were very clear, and after making sure that everyone understood, he smiled and said to Fang Nuo: "Arnold, you are responsible for all the money matters, and you have to keep the accounts well." ”
Fang Nuo was entrusted with a heavy task by Liu Qin, he was excited and uneasy, and said with some lack of confidence: "I, can I do it?" ”
"Absolutely." Liu Qin patted him on the shoulder, "Who can do this except you, don't you say?" ”
Everyone said yes, Fang Nuo, the chief financial officer, took office.
On the second day, Liu Qin went to her sister-in-law to borrow a hundred taels of silver and handed it to Fang Nuo and them to run errands. It should be said that Liu Qin still has a small asset, since the beginning of the week, she is a little miser, holding on to the gold ingots, and the red envelopes for the birthday gifts and New Year's celebrations have accumulated in the past few years, and she doesn't spend it herself, she is saving for the future, and now it is starting to come in handy.
On this day, Liu Qin had been thinking about opening a tavern, and she didn't have the heart to go out for a stroll, which made the old lady wonder, why was she so well-behaved today, and the sun came out of the west.
Nearly in the evening, Fang Nuo and the three of them came back, and the three and a half children did such a big thing for the first time, and they were very excited, and the three of them reported the incident again, and Liu Qin was so loud that they didn't understand it.
In general, things went smoothly, they first found the tavern, signed the paperwork with the Jiang couple, and then went to the tooth shop to discuss the purchase of a house, the house was sold for more than half a year and no one cared, the owner was also anxious, the price was suppressed, and finally under the calm bargaining of Changxing, the transaction was sold at a price of eighty taels of silver.
Before they went, they had figured out the surrounding markets, although Beicheng was not as prosperous as the three main streets in the southeast and west, and the price of the house was much lower, but after all, it was in Wucheng City, if it wasn't for the owner's worry, the price of that house would be at least more than one hundred taels.
The house was sold on the spot, and the transfer procedures were completed as Jiang Li, which was also agreed by Liu Qin in advance, anyway, Jiang Li's was also hers, and the family did not speak two words.
Then there were some twists and turns when contacting the owner of the tavern, first I didn't find anyone, then I found someone, and I couldn't be the master, and finally the owner came out to negotiate on both sides, or I bought it at a price of seventy taels, and if I wanted to rent, the rent would be increased.
The two sides talked for a long time, and in the end the other party was only willing to give up to sixty taels, so Fang Nuo and they left a message, saying that they had to reply to the master's house to decide, so it was a little late to return.
Liu Qin thought about it and felt that if he wanted to do it for a long time, he still had to buy it, after all, it didn't matter how he changed his things, and it could be seen from the real estate economy in his previous life that no matter what era it was, as long as it was a peaceful year, it was not wrong to buy a house and buy land, and it would not depreciate.
Liu Qin decided to let Cuiyu go back to the city together tomorrow and go back to the house to get some silver, before he told his father, the sister-in-law couldn't show the stuffing, so it was not good to borrow it from the sister-in-law. He also told Fang Nuo to leave some money for Master Jiang, so that he could continue to brew some good wine and store it while waiting for the day when it reopened.
Liu Qin first cut and then played to get everything done, just waiting for Master Liu to come, but Master Liu was not available for several days, and sent someone to Zhuangzi to reply, only saying that there were many things in the yamen.
Liu Qin has not been idle in these days of waiting, and the little dolls on the Zhuangzi are all familiar, Cheng Bo's grandson Zou Yougui's son is also seven or eight years old, originally the head of the child on the Zhuangzi, and now these young masters and girls are here, he consciously gave up the position of the child king to Liu Qin, so Liu Qin can be said to be a hundred responses in the Zhuangzi, and he is not majestic.
During the day, they will discuss going to the small river by the village to touch the fish, or go to the fruit grove to climb the tree and pick the fruit, and tell stories while counting the stars in the shade at night.
On this day, Liu Qin, who had visited Zhuangzi all over the place, took a group of idle people to the field to see the peasants weeding in the seedling fields, most of these farmers were people from nearby villages, and there were also people from Zhuangzi, such as Feng Da. Feng Da saw Liu Qin and others from afar in the field, and hurriedly came over to say hello.
Feng Da, who has been reformed through labor for more than a year, is darker than before, stronger, and looks much more honest, except that he still has a little thief in his eyes, which somewhat exposes his true nature.
Feng Da said hello, and he also took a break in the shade of the tree, Liu Qin and they were all standing, Feng Da didn't dare to sit, he stood aside and wiped his sweat with his sleeve from time to time, and fanned the wind.
At this time, a peasant woman approached with a bamboo basket, and before she got close, she called out shyly, "Brother Feng." ”
Ah, there is a situation, Liu Qin's eyes suddenly widened, and he didn't let go of this opportunity to gossip.
