After Xu Yan and his entourage left Gushan, they entered Hangzhou City from Yongjinmen.

It is said that there is quite an allusion to this Yong Jinmen. According to legend, during the period of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Qian Yuanjin, the king of Wuyue, led the water of the West Lake into the city, dug out the Yongjin Pond, and built the city gate. Legend has it that it is the place where the golden bull emerges in the West Lake, hence the name.

As the only way to visit from Hangzhou City to West Lake, the vicinity of Yongjinmen is extremely prosperous.

Yongjin Gate not only has a dry gate, but also a water gate.

There are rows of restaurants and shops inside and outside the city, there is an endless stream of cruise ships and cargo ships, and the bustling wharf reminds Xu Yan of Zhang Zeduan's "Qingming Riverside Map".

Xu Yan was very interested, and said casually: "Chang Yan picks up the clear wave to see the water and the sky; High-rise buildings and downtown fireworks are thousands of homes. ”

Xu Wei listened to it and said silently: "Chang Yan picks up Qingbo to see the water and sky; High-rise buildings and downtown fireworks... Childe casually came to be a peerless sentence, and it would be a pity not to be a poet and immortal poet of this dynasty. ”

Xu Yan smiled and said, "It's just love." By the way, Brother Wen, what do you think of opening a bookstore in this Yongjin Gate? ”

Xu Wei's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Xu also has this intention. Yongjin Gate outside the small Yingzhou, the cold food is more romantic. The red boats are full of singing and blowing, and there are high-rise buildings outside the flowers.

The sunny day is warm, the light smoke floats, and you can swim freely. Three thousand fandels, twelve dried ends, a cloud head. ”

After Xu Wei stopped, he said leisurely: "Such a beautiful place, there should be some literary and ink atmosphere. ”

Xu Yan nodded and said, "In this case, let's go and see if there is a suitable shop." ”

Yongjinmen is extremely prosperous, with all kinds of shops, and naturally there are no shortage of tooth shops.

Xu Yan found a 'Jin Han Ya Xing', and when he saw that he was doing real estate business, he strode in.

Xu Wei and Shuangxi followed.

The shopkeeper of the tooth shop was a lean man in his forties, with a goatee on his chin, and he looked extremely shrewd.

Seeing Xu Yan dressed like a rich son, he greeted him with a smile.

"This son, please come in quickly, Ling Zi quickly serve tea."

Xu Yan looked around and found that the shop was not large, and the limited space was basically filled with all kinds of cabinets.

The old shopkeeper saw that Xu Yan was very curious, and his heart should be a gentleman, and he had already made up his mind to slaughter a penny.

"Childe is here to buy property?"

He said this very carefully.

The so-called see people talk about people, and talk about ghosts. With Xu Yan's lake silk shirt, this jade pendant tied around his waist is enough to buy a house. Such a noble son naturally would not come to rent a house.

If he really talks about renting a house, Xu Yan will definitely pull out his legs and leave, isn't this a slap in the face?

"That being the case, I don't know if Childe wants to buy another business or buy a shop?"

"I want it all."

Xu Yan said domineeringly.

The old shopkeeper was already happy in his heart. Oops, this is really a business that doesn't come to the door, and it comes in pairs.

He hasn't opened it yet, and he didn't expect it to be a big order.

He swallowed and foamed, and said with a smile: "Childe is really a wonderful person. In that case, why don't we take a look at other industries first? ”

Xu Yan nodded and let the old shopkeeper introduce him.

"Since it's another business, Childe must buy it around the West Lake. The suitable places to live in the north of the West Lake are none other than the Yulian Pavilion and the Xiling Bridge generation. But there are too many temples, Zhaoqing Temple, Big Buddha Head, Zhiguo Temple, and Agate Temple are all gathered there, I am afraid that it will disturb the peace of the son. The west side is quiet, but there is a little bit of fireworks in the West Lake. This West Lake Middle Road is good, Qinlou, Pian Shiju, Shijintang generation of beautiful scenery, excellent environment, can the son be interested? ”

The old shopkeeper is desperately selling, all because this piece of house is the most profitable, and countless rich sons have bought other businesses here.

Who knew that Xu Yan refused directly: "Forget about this generation, it's too close to the lonely mountain." ”

He said in his heart that it was not easy to buy a set of other businesses to settle down, and then buy it by Mr. Qian's side, isn't this to find guilt for himself.

The old shopkeeper complained in his heart, this son's request is really many.

But he didn't want to miss such a god of wealth, so he had to continue to flip through the house bill.

After looking at it for a long time, he suddenly saw a suitable house, and couldn't help but be ecstatic: "Yes, there is a house at the foot of Santai Mountain and west of Yanggong Causeway, which is not only quiet, but also very close to the West Lake." Childe doesn't know, but this inner West Lake has a different charm than the outer lake. And this inner West Lake and the outer West Lake are connected, there is a small pier not far from this house, and the son can take a boat trip to the lake with the United States. When you are tired of playing, the son can also chant poems under the moon, frustrate the piano in front of the window, fortunately and even happy, isn't it beautiful! ”

The old shopkeeper said that the spitting stars were about to spray on Xu Yan's face.

Xu Yan frowned and said, "Is it really as good as you say?" ”

Seeing this, the old shopkeeper hurriedly patted his chest and said: "Jin Hanya never brags, and the houses introduced are all real. If Childe is interested, Xiao Lao'er can take Childe to see the house now. ”

Xu Yan was really moved.

Listening to the description of the old shopkeeper, this other industry should be located on the south side of Santai Mountain, the approximate location of Santai Dream Trace. In later generations, Xu Yan once went to that place, and it was indeed a first-class retreat, but many Hangzhou locals rarely went to play.

The most important thing is that it is very close to the West Lake, which belongs to the kind of existence that is quiet in the middle of noisy.

"I'll have to take a look at this house in a moment. However, Yanggong Causeway is too far away from here, so you should introduce the shops first. When we see the shops, it's not too late for us to look at other businesses. ”

Xu Yan didn't want to turn around and run away, so it was better to uphold the principle of proximity and settle down in the bookstore first.

The old shopkeeper hurriedly responded: "Childe is very right. I don't know which shop Childe wants to buy? ”

Xu Yan said lightly: "It's good near the Golden Gate." ”

The old shopkeeper nodded and said, "How big does the boy want to be a shop, and what is it used for?" ”

"Sell books."

"Childe is really an elegant person."

The old shopkeeper quickly flipped through the room books and soon picked a shop.

"This shop is on the north side of Hanyun Street, with a huge door and a small yard. Since Childe wants to open a bookstore, he must be indispensable for printing books, and a shop with a yard is just right. ”

Xu Yan secretly said in his heart, sure enough, he has a specialization in the art industry. This old shopkeeper was able to find a qualified shop according to the needs of customers in such a short time, and there was indeed something.

"In that case, take us to see it."

The old shopkeeper also saw that among the three of them, Xu Yan had the final say, and immediately smiled: "This shop is very close, let's just walk." ”

With that, the old shopkeeper took the key and walked ahead. Xu Yan and others followed closely.

Sure enough, as he said, this shop is very close to Yaxing, and it is only about 100 steps.

Coming to the door, Xu Yan glanced at the first impression and made a good impression, then turned to Xu Wei and said, "What does Senior Brother Wen think?" ”

"The orientation is good, this generation is also prosperous, and it is a good shop."

Xu Wei, who had been silent, finally spoke.
