Chapter 108: New Shop

The original slum in Xicheng was demolished and rebuilt, and the road was much wider than the original, and two carriages could be driven side by side when there were vendors on both sides.

The newly renovated street is called Xinjie with a simple name, and the others are called Meat Market, Flower Fang, Fish Shop, Cloth Market, and Wuyi Lane. These places need to classify the merchants of the whole prefecture in a centralized manner, and Cheng Wanyu knows that after more than ten years, Xicheng, which was originally the poorest, has become the downtown of Huaizhou Prefecture.

Cheng Wanyu thought that she could completely get her own shop and house, but she didn't want to charge money. Although these are all expansions funded by the imperial court, the yamen also charges some commissions as the difference.

She didn't know if she had such conditions in her previous life, although she was unwilling, she still honestly handed over twenty taels of silver. After all, there are more properties in her name, and it is unknown whether Ma Mingyue's mother's family and others are willing to be noisy or noisy.

However, Lou County ordered that the people were confused, and there were still many ways to rectify the people. When he saw that many people came to make trouble, he was neither angry nor annoyed, and moved in if he was willing to move in.

But if the shop wants to open, it has to go through the procedures in the yamen, make a record, and pay taxes on the register. If you don't feel like you're going to open the door and do business casually, if you don't pay the money, you'll be stuck there and won't go through the formalities.

I can't go through the formalities, and the rent is not easy to rent out. These people who have stores in their hands can only admit it and pay the money honestly.

As for private houses, it is even simpler, and it is not uncommon for people to have a head book in hand and want to pay taxes or be forcibly recruited as soldiers. Whoever is a good person wants to become a military household, it is a lowly grin and cannot be famous. can only bow his head to pay the money, but he offended the officials by making a scene.

Most of Cheng Wanyu's shops were rented out, leaving two to open a liquor store. Although Cui Xibin was bald, fortunately, her sixth brother Cheng Hui asked for it back.

Own house, own wine, and a sure-fire deal is not bad. And Ermao, Black Bean and Dayong, the three dowry guys, also have a place to go.

The money earned every month can also offset the monthly money of several people in the family. It also saved Cheng Wanyu expenses.

Another company, Cheng Wanyu, plans to open a restaurant, which, unlike other restaurants, only sells fast meals. She also had a thought in her heart, wanting to thank the Bodhisattva for his rebirth. So a notice was posted at the door. But whenever a monk passes by, he will be invited in and given a sumptuous meal.

In the first three days of Jingxinzhai's opening, Cheng Wanyu invited beggars to eat for free. Eat people with short mouths and short hands. It's just three days. Everyone in the entire Huaizhou Mansion knows that there is a restaurant in Xicheng New Street.

Beggars are also human beings, and they all know about Entu. Although they ask for food, they also have their own rules, and after eating Jingxinzhai's food, they will guard Jingxinzhai.

When Fan Zhongen wrote a letter to the head of the family, Master Cheng, he praised Cheng Wanyu's move again.

Although it seems that Jingxinzhai has suffered a loss and spent money, it is not as useful to invite the most useless beggars to eat as it is to invite high-ranking officials and nobles. After all, he has tasted the fresh, and there will be repeat customers if he sings and praises it on the side.

In the long run, it is also a rare pleasure for beggars to make up nursery rhymes and sing them all over Huaizhou Mansion. The price is fair and affordable, and the money earned will be sent to Xishan Qingjing Temple to do good deeds every month. And the rest of the day's meals will be left for homeless little beggars and people with missing arms and legs. Even if the meal is not delicious enough in the future. But if a person has a good heart, there will be good deeds.

Cheng Wanyu unintentionally planted willows and willows, but made Jingxinzhai's business prosperous.

The shopkeeper of Jing Xinzhai is Cheng Wanyu's dowry housekeeper, and she took the two little maids out of the city alone to live a small life with Shi Jun. There was nowhere to place the people who left a courtyard, and now the three small ones are in the wine shop next to Jingxinzhai.

Fan Zhongen's steward hired a cook to recruit Xiao Er, and stayed in Jingxinzhai to make money for Cheng Wanyu with all his heart.

Two guards guarded Cheng Wanyu's house and would go to the store every day to help. Fortunately, the brothers of the beggar gang are righteous enough, although some villains want to cause trouble and destruction. can see a group of beggars sitting at the door, and I also know that these people are barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, just think about it.

In the winter of Cheng Wanyu's sixteenth year, she lived a very nourishing and satisfying life. Only the fact that her stomach has not moved has made her feel a little uneasy.

The only regret before the death of the previous life. It's just that there is no man and half woman by his side. Now she and Shi Jun are in love, but their belly is still not moving. Shi Jun was not in a hurry, but she was very flustered.

This day of the new year. Shi Jun is on duty again. After discussing with him, Cheng Wanyu decided to take the maid back to her parents' house. Although it is not good for a married daughter to always go home, this relationship must always be maintained.

On the twenty-second day of the lunar month, before she went out, Cheng Wanyu heard a knock on the door. I thought it was the Gao Yiqiu family who was going to gossip again, but Cheng Wanyu didn't care.

Xiaocui opened the door and was surprised to see that it was Tong Yong, who she hadn't seen for many days, so she blushed a little and invited him in unnaturally.

Since Tong Yong is here in person, there must be something important. Cheng Wanyu changed her clothes and hurriedly went to the front yard hall.

"Grandma, send someone to spread the word in the village. It is said that the young year will be sacrificed. If it is inconvenient for the master, the lady must go back alone. Wait until the second day of the Lunar New Year, and then go out from your in-law's house to your parents' house! ”

Cheng Wanyu frowned. It seems that this mother's family will not be able to go back. I don't know what tricks the old Shi family is going to play, and she can be sure that she must be coming for herself.

Cheng Wanyu is not stupid. Although I don't know much about the Shi family, I also know a rough idea from Shi Jun's mouth. I have the experience of being an official's wife in my previous life, and I know more or less what means people have in their homes.

"Can you find out who has been in the house lately?" Cheng Wanyu just thought about it for a while, and then smoothed out the context of the matter.

Tong Yong's eyes swept a touch of appreciation, nodded and smiled: "Let the eldest grandmother guess correctly, there is news from the village." said that the niece of the lady's mother's family came to visit relatives, and she is fifteen years old this year, which is in the mood for love. The subordinates are also worried that the owner of the village and his wife are interested in ......"

Cheng Wanyu sneered: "Sure enough, it was an enduring trick that let me go back to the village alone." No matter what I do, I can find a fault in me, and since I am General Cao Xiao's guarantor, I can't dispose of me at will. Then find an obedient and well-behaved person to contain me, also to take advantage of a disobedient eldest son. ”

Tong Yongdu: "The subordinates are worried about this, and the elders dare not resign." The newcomer entering the door will make the two masters feel disgusted, and without the support of Donglianghe, the young master will have one less arm! ”

Cheng Wanyu breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed: "If that's the case, then it's easier to do." It seems that my cheap mother-in-law doesn't necessarily have much ability, and I'm worried about how powerful she will be to pinch me! ”

Tong Yong looked up in surprise and blurted out: "Grandma, is this going back alone?" ”

The corners of Cheng Wanyu's mouth showed a ruthless and confident smile: "I've been stuck in this small courtyard for a few months, how can I not take advantage of the New Year to have a good time?" ”
