Chapter 45 Renting
Lin Jiu followed twice and handed over the sample in his hand directly.
"Shopkeeper Qi, can you take this thing from me?" She didn't want to get into a fight with these two disrespectful fellows, she had a lot of things to do.
"That's right, Lao Qi hurry up and take a look, this thing is really good, it can definitely attract customers." The shopkeeper Wang helped on the side.
As soon as he talked about business, the shopkeeper Qi became very serious. He flipped the sample over and over several times, and from time to time a gleam appeared in his little eyes.
Lin Jiu was very patient and waited quietly on the sidelines without saying a word. However, the shopkeeper Wang was a little anxious, he stretched out his hand and pushed the shopkeeper Qi, and said angrily: "It's not over, you plan to see when it's a head, okay or not, give a happy word." ”
Shopkeeper Qi glared at Shopkeeper Wang, snorted and said arrogantly: "What's the matter, I'm in charge here, it's not your broken restaurant." ”
Without waiting for the shopkeeper to attack, he turned his head to look at Lin Jiu and said, "Girl, did you do this?" ”
"It's what I painted, my mother did. I'm not afraid of the jokes of the shopkeeper, my female celebrity really can't do it. ”
"Hahaha." Shopkeeper Qi smiled happily and seemed to appreciate Lin Jiu's confession.
"Little girl, I took this thing from you, and I took as much as I wanted. However, the ugly words are ahead, this thing is not difficult to make, as long as we launch it here, it is estimated that it will not be long before there will be many imitations. When the price I sell is lower, the purchase price will be lowered accordingly. ”
Lin Jiu nodded in understanding, who let there be no intellectual property protection in these years. However, she also has a way to deal with it.
"Shopkeeper Qi, don't worry, in addition to these looks, I have many other tricks. Let them imitate it, and we will always have something new to come out. ”
"Well said." Shopkeeper Qi patted his thigh and exclaimed.
"If the girl can do this, I can also assure you that the purchase price will never be discounted."
Talking about good business, Lin Jiu repeated his old tricks, saying that he was going to pick up the goods. After leaving the cloth village, she and the king's shopkeeper separated. Find a place where no one is around, take out the goods in the space, turn around and go back.
Shopkeeper Qi was surprised that he came back so soon. picked up the goods brought by Lin Jiu and carefully inspected them, and found that each piece was of good quality.
"Yes, the girl is a good person. This stuff is really well done. ”
"It's all my mother's work, I just came up with an idea." Lin Jiu is also very modest.
A pile of cloth art, the shopkeeper gave six taels of silver. This price made Lin Jiu very satisfied, and with the money she had saved before, she now also had savings of thirteen taels of silver. This money should be enough to rent a house.
Coming out of Buzhuang, Lin Jiu went directly to the house he saw last time.
The location is good, but the small area of the house has been rented out. All that's left is the big house in the middle of nowhere, and the one to share with the landlord.
Lin Jiu hesitated for a moment, but still planned to take a look at the shared house first.
She has her own considerations. Zhao has a weak personality and is not sociable. If you can live with someone, you usually have someone to talk to. Besides, as long as the landlord is good, he can help them in case of trouble. saved Zhao's ears from being soft, and when he was not at home, he was coaxed away.
Thinking like this, Lin Jiu came to the mansion.
She raised her hand and knocked on the door, and after a while, the door creaked open, and a small head sticked out of it, staring at Lin Jiu for a moment.
Lin Jiu roughly observed that the boy opposite, eight or nine years old, had thick eyebrows and big eyes. The clothes on my body were very old, but they were very neat and clean. This alone made Lin Jiu feel good.
"Little brother, do you have a house for rent?" Lin Jiu asked with a smile.
The little boy was stunned for a moment before replying, "Some sisters, come in and have a look." ”
As he spoke, he warmly welcomed her in.
"Grandma, someone has come to see the house." The little boy shouted into the house.
A silver-haired old lady walked out of it, although she looked not young, but she was in good spirits, and she walked very steadily, and she didn't even hold a cane.
Like the little boy, the old lady's clothes look very old, but they are very neatly organized, which makes people feel comfortable at first glance.
"Girl, do you live alone?" The old lady looked Lin Jiu up and down and asked.
"Oh no, I live with my mother."
Because he had a natural affection for his grandparents and grandchildren, Lin Jiu did not hide it, and told him from beginning to end how they were kicked out of their homes and how they slept in the mountains and forests.
The old lady and the boy were very embarrassed when they heard it, and they couldn't believe that there were still such ruthless family members in this world, and they didn't even care about their granddaughters and daughters.
The little boy patted his chest and said, "Sister, you can live in our house, my grandmother and I will be good to you." ”
Lin Jiu looked at this lively and kind boy and loved it. She gently stroked the little boy's head and asked, "What's your name?" ”
The boy was a little uncomfortable with this kind of intimacy and seemed a little shy, "My name is Zheng Jiadong." ”
Lin Jiu raised his eyebrows in some surprise, the name sounded quite bookish.
The old lady sighed and said slowly: "My short-lived son is a showman, and I gave my grandson such a name in the hope that he will become a pillar of the country in the future." Who knows, he himself went early. Even the daughter-in-law followed in grief, leaving us as an old man and a child. ”
They are all miserable! Lin Jiu sighed in his heart.
However, seeing that this old lady is knowledgeable and reasonable, and the family is lively and sensible, she has already moved her heart and plans to rent the house here.
"Grandma, can I take a look at the house?"
"Of course, I'll take you." Zheng Jiadong jumped up.
The Zheng family's grandmother nodded with a smile and asked her grandson to take Lin Jiu to see the house. I turned around and went to the kitchen, intending to boil some water and make a pot of tea.
The Zheng family's house is relatively new, and the three rooms to be rented out are in the east. The basic furniture inside is all there, and it is very clean and tidy. At a glance, I know that this pair of grandparents are diligent people and love the house very much. This made Lin Jiu very satisfied.
It's much more pleasant to live with someone who can live than with someone who is lazy and sloppy.
"Jiadong, your family's rental notice has been posted for many days, why hasn't anyone moved in all this time?" Lin Jiu was a little strange. It is said that the location of this house is good, and the price is not expensive, how can no one live in it.
"Because I don't like them." Jiadong thought for a moment and replied seriously.
Lin Jiu snorted and laughed, this little guy can't afford to rent a house according to his own preferences.
