Bought the restaurant

"Who are you? What are you doing here? I don't think we owe you any money. The middle-aged uncle looked at Yuan Qing, saw her smiling face, and was not in order, thinking that it was sent by a creditor to fight a protracted war.

"I just want to come, the person who bought this restaurant." Yuan Qing said this lightly, and then said, "Why aren't you welcome?" ”

"Don't be kidding...... middle-aged uncle saw that Yuan Qing was just a girl, so he didn't believe that she would come to buy this restaurant.

"Don't believe me?" Yuan Qing's smile was still the same. "I know, your restaurant owes a lot of debts, how much do you plan to sell this restaurant?"

"One white fifty taels of silver." The old man said.

"Give me the exact amount of money the restaurant owes."

"I'm not afraid to tell you, more than four hundred taels of silver." The old man has nothing to hide, he is about to return to his hometown, this mess, he doesn't want to clean up, so he thought of selling the restaurant and throwing it to others to clean up.

"A hundred taels of silver." Yuan Qing stretched out a finger, "Don't worry, I will pay off the debts of the restaurant one by one, but this restaurant has to be cheaper." The tone was unhurried.

"No, one hundred and fifty taels, I won't sell it for a penny less." The old man jumped to his feet angrily. One hundred taels is the same price as the previous buyer. He refused to sell it before, but now he is willing to sell it.

"Is your restaurant worth that much money?" Yuan Qing was disdainful.

"Yes, the shopkeeper, this restaurant looks like it is operating on the surface, but it often doesn't pay for it." The middle-aged uncle looks like he bought the restaurant as soon as possible, but this restaurant is just an empty shell.

"Okay, add another tael of silver, it's up to you to sell it or not." Yuan Qing said, his eyes were unwavering.

"You ......" the old man was stunned. This is buying a restaurant, not buying cabbage. Plus a tael?

"I'm already benevolent, one hundred taels is my bottom line, one cent less, I won't buy it." Yuan Qing's tone was flat, but it was resolute.

At this time, another buyer of the restaurant walked in, he was a man in his thirties, with a big belly, a fat body covered with a very expensive dress, a smile on his face, and his eyes were narrowed into a line, "Shopkeeper Hu, but after thinking about it, does the restaurant sell or not?" ”

"Boss Jin, you're here, hurry up, please take a seat." The middle-aged uncle beckoned the man he called Boss Jin to sit down and offered him another cup of tea. This attitude is very different from the previous attitude towards Yuan Qing.

Boss Jin is a businessman, and he has some friends who are officials behind him, so he can still eat well in the mall. "Boss Hu, who is she?" He saw the girl sitting on the side, and saw that her face was beautiful, if it weren't for the girl's calm expression, he would have thought that this girl was a girl specially prepared for him by the shopkeeper for him to play.

"Hehe, Boss Jin, my surname is Yuan, you just call me Miss Yuan." Yuan Qing introduced himself with a smile.

"Miss Yuan, I'm glad to meet you." Boss Jin is a sophisticated and sleek businessman, this girl can sit here so calmly and calmly, needless to say, she must have a few brushes, and she is polite to Yuan Qing in the spirit of having multiple friends who are easy to do.

"Don't dare, don't dare." Yuan Qing returned the salute. This is a false courtesy, and it is necessary to have it in that era.

"Boss Jin, the price you gave is too little, can you have more? This girl also came to buy a restaurant. "The middle-aged uncle acts as a middleman, and he is like asking these two people who buy a restaurant to bid against each other to maximize the price of the restaurant, and the one with the highest price wins.

With this kind of method, Yuan Qing and Boss Jin don't know that they are now opponents and comrades-in-arms on the same side, because neither of them wants to raise the price of the restaurant.

"Miss Yuan, how much do you have?"

"One hundred and one taels, hehe, Boss Jin is sorry, he has one or two more silver than you." Yuan Qing said, telling this cold joke in a calm tone.

"Hehe, the girl is really good at laughing, I only give ninety taels." Boss Jin's tone was resolute and irrefutable. Shopkeeper Hu and the middle-aged uncle were stupid when they heard it.

At this time, Yuan Qing chuckled: "Hehe, Boss Jin, you are really good at laughing, then Miss Yuan, I will thank Boss Jin for giving me the restaurant." He bowed to him.

"Boss Jin, you ......" Shopkeeper Hu pointed at Boss Jin, and he was speechless with anger. The middle-aged uncle vaguely felt that something worse than this was about to happen

"Miss Yuan, don't thank me too early, I'm going to set someone in this restaurant, but the price is ninety taels." Boss Jin's smiling face was not there, but his face was gloomy, "Miss Yuan, I can't help but tell you, offending me Jin has no good fruit to eat, you know the current concubine, she is full of praise for me Jin, and the county master of Qiuzhou is my old friend." ”

Yuan Qing sneered, compared to the backstage, labor and management also saved the life of the prince, "Really?" Boss Jin, once some things are exported, it will be difficult to take them back, this restaurant will be the one with the highest price according to common sense, if you think I have offended you, just take a look at this jade pendant first, and then make a conclusion. Yu Yu took out the jade pendant that Li Chen gave her. Yuan Qing vaguely remembered that the young man seemed to be the prince here, so he kept the jade pendant he handed her with him all the time, just in case of emergency, just like now.

"This jade pendant ......" is priceless, and his owner is either rich or expensive, "This is the prince's belongings." After that, the shopkeeper and the middle-aged uncle looked at this jade pendant again and again, respectfully.

"Even if you have vision, I don't need to say it now, Boss Jin knows how to do it." Yuan Qing took back the jade pendant and didn't say much. The meaning is obvious, such an important thing has been given away, so this person should not be provoked by ordinary people. In Tianyuan Kingdom, the only people who can engrave the word 'Li' on the jade pendant are the children of the royal family, and even high-ranking officials dare not. This kind of jade pendant is priceless and connected with the identity of the prince, so the shopkeeper Hu and the middle-aged uncle saw the jade as if they were seeing people, and bowed to the jade pendant.

Yuan Qing secretly pinched a sweat in his heart, and said in his heart, this ice cube face has done a good thing.

The end result speaks for itself.

Yuan Qing got this restaurant, and it was at the lowest price of one hundred and one taels of silver, which was eleven taels more than the price offered by the gold boss.

However, followed by IOUs, the restaurant owed a total of more than 400 taels of silver, Yuan Qing's cash in his hand was only more than 300 taels, and after buying the restaurant with 100 taels, there were only more than 200 taels of silver left.

The restaurant is the shopkeeper Hu and now it has become Yuan Qing's, but the underground of this restaurant is not the shopkeeper Hu, and the shopkeeper Hu has no right to buy and sell, so the land under the restaurant has to pay rent Yuan Qing heard this, and almost didn't crush the cup, "Ya, this restaurant is all built, why is this land still someone else's." ”

"Miss Yuan, don't you know, the land on the edge of the lake belongs to the imperial court, and the merchants have no right to buy and sell, this restaurant is simply built here by the imperial court, and I am just the shopkeeper here who is responsible for running this restaurant, and I am not really the boss here." Shopkeeper Hu said. He is also very helpless, this restaurant is called 'Moon Lake Restaurant' is close to Moon Lake, the state spent money to build here, the right to operate the restaurant is contracted to the people, how the people operate in the restaurant, the state has no right to ask, but the operator of the restaurant has to hand over some money to the state every year in order to continue to operate the restaurant. Just like renting a shop to do business, the owner has to pay rent.

It is no wonder that there is only one restaurant on the shore of the huge Moon Lake.

That's fine, there are no other competitors, and life is a little better. Yuan Qing could only think about what to do.

"Then who is the owner of the land in this restaurant? That is, to whom to give the underground rent. Yuan Qing asked him.

"The rent is generally given to the people who live in the palace, that is, the prince." Hu shopkeeper said. As the so-called whole world, it is not the royal land, this underground is the country, that is the royal one, the royal surname is Li, that is the surname Li.

If a prince is crowned the prince, then there is a fief, then the land in this fief is his, therefore, the rent of this restaurant must be handed over to the prince.

It's a very simple metaphor, and that's exactly what happened, otherwise, how would the royal people make extra money? If you rely on those sluggies, how can you get rich?

Yuan Qing was denouncing this evil feudal society at this time. It's really Zhumen's wine and meat, and there are frozen bones on the road.

Those arrears always have more than 400 taels of silver, plus the rent that has to be paid every six months, no wonder, the asking price of this restaurant is already very low, and few people dare to buy it.

I have to say that cheap is not good, good goods are not cheap. However, Yuan Qing also admitted it, did not complain too much, it was better to run the restaurant well, pay off the debt first, and the rent was due in only one month, and the next days were not very easy.

The middle-aged uncle is the second-in-command of the restaurant, and he is the second shopkeeper who helps the shopkeeper Hu take care of the restaurant.

These people also know that Yuan Qing is the new shopkeeper of Yuehu Restaurant. explained some matters, at this time, it was already dusk, Yuan Qing pulled Yuan Bao and walked home slowly.

The sun goes down, the red sunset on the horizon, falling on the edge of the green hills, far above the world, the glow of the sun, elongating the shadow of the species on the ground, two slender figures walking slowly, pale red glow, falling in the wardrobe, silent but like a low whisper flowing in the heart to tell the heart.

In the area of the urban-rural junction of Qiuzhou City, the night is deep and deep. The moon creeps up the branches, and in this place that lacks romance, it is rare to see a couple under the moon in front of the flowers, chanting poems against each other. You may be able to see this affectionate beauty from a mile away from here
