24. Chapter 024

In addition to the national capital Chenyang, the Liang Dynasty also had 14 cities.

Wuyang City and Huiting City are two of them.

Compared with Wuyang City, Fu Rui, the city lord of Huiting City, seems to be extremely unambitious, does not pull relationships, does not make good neighborliness, and sticks to his own one-third of an acre of land and does his duty conscientiously.

Under his governance, Huiting City does not say that it does not close its doors at night, but it is far more peaceful than other places, although it is still begging for life, but it looks extremely comfortable.

Many people don't look down on Fu Rui's character, and they have not said anything about running on it openly and secretly.

But if something really happened to Fu Rui, they were all willing to help, instead of falling into the trap like others, and even taking advantage of his illness to kill him.

In the words of Guo Ziliang, the lord of Wuyang City, people like Fu Rui can't reflect his importance when he is rich, but when he is in trouble one day, the only one who can help him, and the only one he is willing to accept help may be Fu Rui.

For someone as ambitious as them, Vorry is one of the few people who can make them feel safe and willing to deliver trust.

Of course, now these words are just talking, whether Fu Rui will really help him as he said when that happens, except for Zhang Hanqiu, no one is really sure.

As the only person to know in the next few decades, the reason why Zhang Hanqiu chose to come here is enough to explain everything.

When the whole world was dragged into the flames of war, Huiting City was the least damaged, and the slaughter of the city in other places still happened, but after the fall of Huiting City, it was only a change of officials, and the people were not greatly affected, but they scared themselves enough, so that after many years, the world was stable, and the stability and prosperity of Huiting City were unreachable.

Zhang Hanqiu didn't want to move all the time, from the time she planned to leave the Zhang family, Huiting City was the best place for her to settle down.

Hurry up and hurry, and finally advance the city at the gate.

Lifting the curtain and looking at the crowd outside, Zhang Hanqiu felt happy in his heart.

"Find a better inn to settle in, I'm afraid we'll have to stay at the inn for several days."

"Yes."

A day of running, since the night without words.

The next day, Zhang Hanqiu asked Ta Song to bring the innkeeper over, "I heard that the shopkeeper is popular and has a wide range of people, and our group has just arrived, and I want to ask the shopkeeper for a favor." ”

The shopkeeper who has aged has read countless people, and he does not dare to despise the noble lady who wears a hat and still has a childish voice, "Miss just command." ”

"I originally came to Huiting City to join my relatives, but I didn't think about it...... I have sold all the things in my hometown, and it is not suitable to go back, so I want to buy a house in the city and settle down, I don't know if the shopkeeper has a way? Rubbing the teacup, Zhang Hanqiu's crisp voice had a reassuring calmness, as if no matter what she said, the truth was just as she said.

It's a good thing to let yourself do things, the secret joy of the shopkeeper, if the thing is done, can it be no good for yourself?

"I wonder how big a house Miss wants? What is the acceptable price? ”

"Refreshing, rest assured, if it is done, I will thank you, as for the price...... I'll let my servants come with you to the talks, and it would be nice if the shopkeeper could help keep the price down. ”

"Miss is also a cheerful person, and the villain doesn't say much, so I'm going to work for Miss and give Miss news as soon as possible."

"That's very good."

Sending the shopkeeper out of the house, Ru Niang counted the silver in her hand and said, "Miss, do you think we should buy a smaller house to live in first?" I won't be able to get the things from Mrs. Shi for a while, otherwise you will allow the old slave to go to Xia's house? ”

"Ru Niang, you can't really treat me as the Xia family because I have turned myself into Xia Hanqiu, and seek the help of the Xia family with confidence, the Xia family may have pity on me, and the money will not be short of me, but the feelings are to be discounted, I hope to gain a firm foothold here with my own strength, at that time, I and my grandfather's family will not face the relationship of attachment and dependence, and the relationship will naturally be preserved."

Zhang Hanqiu, no, she is already Xia Hanqiu at this time, and the memories of several lifetimes are slowly merging, and she is no longer the Miss Zhang who didn't understand everything and only knew how to retreat.

"We have nearly eight thousand taels of silver in our hands, and when we settle down, you will work hard to go to Lianxi Temple, where there are not only the things that my mother has saved in the past few years, but also the gold and silver jewelry that my mother left in Zhangfu, we have sent them over, and we can also use them at critical moments, and then find some business to do in Huiting City, so that you don't have to worry about living a bad life."

"Miss, how can you do business with your identity, the old slave doesn't want to break your self-esteem, it's just ...... You are still so young now, you can't really not get married, and if the dowry is light, you must not be looked down upon by your in-laws? ”

"I'm just a civilian now, so I can't do business." Xia Hanqiu smiled hollowly, "Don't say it again in the future, with my current situation, even if I marry with Wanguan's family wealth, I won't be valued, how can a daughter-in-law without the support of her mother's family stand up straight?" If only Jiabao were my own brother, I would definitely take him to run with him desperately, he is so competitive, he will definitely have a great future in the future, with him behind him, even if he is married, what are you afraid of. ”

Ru Niang's sorrow comes from it, Miss has just started in this life, if she is so empty, what kind of hardship will she have to make in this life!

"Okay, Ru Niang, don't cry, why don't you live? You don't have to wait for your husband's mother-in-law and sister-in-law, you can still live happily, and when the shopkeeper has news, you will go with him to see the house, so you don't have to be idle, go outside to inquire about the price of Huiting City, don't be falsely accused and don't know it. ”

Ru Niang choked up.

"If the price is right, it is to buy a three-entry house, don't be stingy with money, once you buy the house, you may have to live for a lifetime."

Ru Niang gritted her teeth, turned around and went out of the inn to the market, the young lady's money can't be spent in vain, and it must not be blackmailed.

The innkeeper came quickly, and it didn't take long for him to reply to the message.

"The little one went to find a familiar Chinese, he has a lot of houses in his hands, both big and small, I don't know when the young lady thinks it's good to go and see it?"

"What's the price? What is the price of a small house? ”

The shopkeeper smiled, "The house is good and bad, and it depends on the price." ”

"Then tomorrow, you let that person come over early tomorrow morning."

"Okay, the little one will send him a message."

Ru Niang came back, her expression was a little excited, "Miss, the price of this Pavilion City is actually lower than that of Wuyang City, the old slave went to inquire, a good house in Sanjin will cost about three thousand taels, and it will be cheaper if it is a little inferior." ”

"Don't be greedy for that cheapness." Seeing Ru Niang holding her money bag tightly, Xia Hanqiu couldn't help but smile lightly, it looked like a warm breeze blowing, which was particularly heartwarming.

Ru Niang thought, just smiled at Miss's ease, she was determined to find a haode, and then she would find a way to find a way in the future, she didn't believe that Mrs. would ignore Miss in the future, and she didn't believe that the Xia family would look on coldly after knowing Miss's situation.

Now, it's only serious that the young lady is doing well.

"Ru Niang, when you see the Chinese tomorrow, you can ask if there is a shop connected to the house, so that it is convenient for us to make a living, we can't come forward, don't you still have Tasong them?"

Ru Niang is extremely reluctant for Miss to be a businessman, a cheap businessman, and she can't tolerate such a word being used on Miss.

But if it is indeed feasible for Tasong and them to come forward, which nobleman does not make a living at home, isn't it also taken care of by domestic servants?

"Yes, the old slave wrote it down."

It costs a lot of money to buy a good shop, and then you have to buy it together with the house...... Ru Niang's heart hung again.

Buying a house is a big deal, there is a lot of silver, Ru Niang is extra cautious, and the Chinese people are also very attentive, even the shopkeeper follows every day, and has gained enough benefits, as a person who has been rooted in the local area for many years, he has put forward a lot of useful opinions.

After a few days, Ru Niang finally locked her target in two places and asked the young lady to make a Zuihou choice.

After looking at both places, Xia Hanqiu did not hesitate to choose the one that was inferior in the eyes of several other people.

"Miss, if you want to do business, this place is not as good as the previous one, the old slave keeps this place just because he thinks this place is quiet and more comfortable to live in, but the restrictions on doing business are greater."

"It's a good fit here."

sent Ru Niang to negotiate, Xia Hanqiu took Ah Jiu to the shop to walk around.

This is a shallow alley, from the main street into only four shops, she fancy this place is in the innermost part of the alley, the shop is facing the alley, and only this shop is connected to a three-entry house behind, next to the shop opened another door to enter and exit, but the main entrance is at the other end.

The shop should have been selling ready-to-wear fabrics like the next ones, but probably it wasn't done, and the shop had been closed for a while, accumulating a thick layer of dust.

It's a really good location, close to the main street, because there are so many of them, but it doesn't look too noisy.

Along the way, she paid attention to the shops, and most of the shops on the main street were inns, wine shops, restaurants, and some rouge jewelry shops.

If she wants to make a living, the best thing is to avoid these and make something special.

What I learned in my previous life died before I had time to practice, so it's good to practice it here.

As for what to do......

Thinking of the beautiful stories I had seen, a smile crept all over my face.

Her experience is really not beautiful, and if it is known, it may earn a lot of tears.

She is not interested in dissecting herself to others, but if she uses the form of stories to discredit some people, such as Wu, Zhang Qiaoer, Zhang Zetian, and Qi Zhensheng...... She was delighted.

Which girl is not pregnant with spring, if she writes some lingering stories to print into a book and sell them in the shop, isn't that the unique feature of her shop? Even if all the four shops in this alley follow the trend in the future, what is there to fear from doing the same business as her?

Do you still have to worry about not being able to get by?

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case, Xia Hanqiu's eyes were shining, and her whole heart was about to move, and she couldn't wait to start her money-making plan now.

Ru Niang came in with a bitter face and reported, "Miss, the price can't be suppressed, and the other party will get at least five thousand taels if he bites it." ”

"Buy it."

Five thousand taels, they have less than eight thousand taels in total, and they have used some bits and pieces, and most of them have gone at once, and Ru Niang's heart hurts.

But looking at the young lady's expression, you can know that she has made up her mind, and Ru Niang didn't say anything in the end.

PS: Merry Christmas, everyone.
