Chapter 139: Pandian
Huai Yanqing hugged Lele, looked at the child in his hand and then at Lin Jinxiu: "Can Lele eat what you made?" ”
"Lele didn't eat it, I did." The corners of Lin Jinxiu's mouth twitched, and she asked Huai Yanqing rhetorically, "What does Lele usually eat?" ”
Do you have to be so clear!
Huai Yanqing's confused eyes lasted for another two full seconds before he reacted: "Oh, oh, oh, oh, so, like this, ......"
As he spoke, he glanced under Lin Jinxiu's neck.
"Look, look at what!" Lin Jinxiu slapped him on the back and called him back, "Hooligan......"
Huai Yanqing hurriedly looked away, cleared his throat with a cough, and changed the topic frantically: "What, shopkeeper, I think I can go to the shop at the east end of the market tomorrow." ”
"Yes." Lin Jinxiu saw Huai Yanqing change the topic, so she gave him a step down, "But you have to go early, it's best to take down the store within three days." ”
"Three days, it may be a bit tight......" Huai Yanqing looked up at the ceiling, "Shopkeeper, is the money enough?" ”
Lin Jinxiu thought about it for a while: "I have about 700 taels of silver in my hand, and I always feel that it is not enough, but if we don't open it, we won't be able to make it up." ”
She took out a purse from the side of her pillow with a silver ticket worth seven hundred taels of silver.
This is Lin Jinxiu, in order to make it easier to carry, deliberately went to the money village to change.
Huai Yanqing looked at the pillow where Lin Jinxiu took out the silver ticket: "...... This is not the one I pillowed on the road with Cui Xu......"
Lin Jinxiu blinked and nodded solemnly: "Hey, yes." ”
Huai Yanqing: "It seems that Cui Xu and I will be able to say in the future that we even pillow silver on the way to the county town......"
"That's right, that's right." Lin Jinxiu blinked her eyes wide, as if this matter had nothing to do with her at all.
"Come with me tomorrow." Before Huai Yanqing went out to go back to sleep, Lin Jinxiu stretched out his head and went out of the room to ask him.
Huai Yanqing heard Lin Jinxiu call her, stopped and turned around: "Okay." ”
Lin Jinxiu added: "I think it's safer for you to go with me." ”
Huai Yanqing seemed to be very happy that Lin Jinxiu could say this, and a pair of narrow Danfeng eyes smiled crookedly: "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate." ”
When Lin Jinxiu heard that he agreed, she retracted her head, and instead stretched out a hand and went out: "Good night." ”
Huai Yanqing also waved at her, regardless of whether she could see it or not: "Good night." ”
Next.
Lin Jinxiu got up early, dressed up, cleaned herself up neatly and tidy, and asked Ning'er to help braid her hair.
At least don't make yourself look like you can't afford a store.
It's a pity that Cui Xu's family doesn't have a bronze mirror, and he doesn't need it.
Lin Jinxiu can't apply a little powder to herself, but she should dress moderately.
In case it looks like a scammery nouveau riche is bad.
Lin Jinxiu, who had packed up, put the silver ticket on his body, and today he just went to see the situation of the store, and he didn't want to buy it directly.
It's best not to be completely thorough with the other party, and ask the price first to see the store.
Huai Yanqing also cleaned up a little today.
The long hair was tied up partially, and he was wearing a green shirt, which at first glance looked a bit like Qin Shuyao.
However, he looks a little more evil than Qin Shuyao, even if he is a scholar, he can't avoid a bad stomach, and he is completely a "well-dressed beast".
"Yo, the shopkeeper is very beautiful today." Huai Yanqing actually had a folding fan in his hand, and after opening it, he wrote the four big characters "unparalleled in the world", which was very arrogant.
Lin Jinxiu didn't comment on Huai Yanqing's dress, but just shifted the target to the fan in his hand: "Who gave you the fan......"
"I picked it!" Ning Er happily interjected, "Sister, Ning Er thinks those words are good!" ”
Okay......
In the end, Huai Yanqing still went out with this unparalleled fan in the world.
After all, it was Ning'er who chose it, and she was spoiled and petted.
Before looking at the store, Lin Jinxiu and the others didn't consider the price, and went to see a lot of land and shops she liked, and kept the similar price and scale in their hearts.
The price of the county town is several times more expensive than that of the county seat in terms of both houses and all aspects, and if it is according to the scale of Lin Jinxiu's original store in the county seat, the two-story store that is larger than his own home, if it is in a prosperous area, will cost at least a thousand taels of silver.
It's an empty piece of land, and it takes at least five hundred taels of silver to get it.
I think Lin Jinxiu spent less than two hundred taels of silver in the county to renovate and expand in the county, and it is really the county seat.
If you go to the capital in the future, do you have to need at least 5,000 taels to order a store?
It's just too expensive.
After understanding the market, Lin Jinxiu and Huai Yanqing did not hesitate, turned around and went straight to the two places discussed yesterday.
The closest one was chosen by Lin Jinxiu.
It is located at the end of the bridge, two floors, but slightly smaller than the original store in the county seat.
Although it is in a busy area, it has the feeling of being in a corner.
“…… In fact. Although it is Lin Jinxiu's own chosen target, it is not very satisfactory when he looks left and right.
She wanted to back down a little, "I always think it's good to open a bubble tea shop here......"
"Milk tea?" Huai Yanqing felt a little interesting when he heard this word, can milk and tea still be combined?
Lin Jinxiu glanced at the price of the store, which deepened her idea of turning around and leaving.
This shop actually costs nine hundred taels of silver, which is really worthless.
"When I have the materials, I'll make you milk tea to drink." Lin Jinxiu pulled Huai Yanqing and walked to another place, "Go and see the place you said." ”
Huai Yanqing was dragged away by her, and almost tripped over her skirt: "Don't think about this?" ”
"Look at that price." Lin Jinxiu frowned, "The price is enough for me to buy a piece of land, such a small shop, I will give him six hundred taels at most, and I feel a bit of a loss." ”
"Okay." Huai Yanqing took several steps in a row before coming to her side and walking side by side with her.
Next, I looked at several rooms in a row, either the price was too high and the cost performance was too low, or the store itself was really not good, and Lin Jinxiu and the others were not very satisfied.
Seeing that he was about to turn to the edge of the market, Lin Jinxiu said, "Do you still recommend me a shop?" ”
"Let's go check it out."
Under the leadership of Huai Yanqing, the two came to the large but somewhat old store he said.
This shop is located at the east end of the market, relatively close to the far edge of the market, in fact, it stands to reason that the location is not very good.
But Lin Jinxiu looked at the appearance of this store and actually liked it a little.
Compared to the store she looked at herself, this one was obviously more than a circle.
It may be because it is relatively close to the end of the market, next to the small courtyards of each family, that the business is not good, so it has not been able to sell.
Today, I was lucky that the owner of this shop happened to be in front of the store.
Seeing Huai Yanqing and Lin Jinxiu approaching the store, they felt that they should be coming for this store.
"Sir, ma'am, do you want to take a look at the shop?"
The middle-aged man greeted him.
Master? Madam? Lin Jinxiu was confused about this man's title.
As a result, before he had time to protest, Huai Yanqing naturally picked up his words: "Yes, is it okay?" ”
"Absolutely." When the man saw that the house he had been pressing in his hands for nearly two months was finally interested, he hurriedly laughed so hard that his teeth were almost grinning to the root of his ears, and stretched out his hand to greet Huai Yanqing and the others in the store.
"Let's go." Under Lin Jinxiu's contemptuous eyes, Huai Yanqing stretched out a hand and motioned to her very gentlemanly to invite in, "Madam, the opportunity is rare, but you have to look at it carefully." ”
Lin Jinxiu lowered her voice: "Are you addicted to acting?" ”
Huai Yanqing smiled, did not answer, but folded the fan, snapped, and then walked to the store with his hands behind his back, like a gentleman.
Lin Jinxiu smiled helplessly, Huai Yanqing is a man, there is nothing to do with him.
So she withdrew her leisure and pulled her attention back.
The shop was indeed very old, the red paint on the pillars had fallen off, and the store was covered in dust.
Lin Jinxiu carefully lifted the hem of her skirt so as not to get dirty.
However, the old can be replaced with a new one, and the dirty can also be cleaned.
Anyway, Lin Jinxiu originally planned to buy the store and then decorate it into his own style, so these are not the case.
"Look, sir, our shop ......" While the man was still pulling Huai Yanqing to keep introducing, Lin Jinxiu went to see the situation in the back kitchen and backyard by himself, and went to the second floor to see the layout of the private room that remained, and then slowly walked down the stairs with his skirt.
Huai Yanqing listened absentmindedly to the man's introduction to herself, and when she saw Lin Jinxiu coming down the stairs, she stepped forward to help her: "Madam, what do you think?" ”
Every time Huai Yanqing called Lin Jinxiu like this, she always had the kind of cheap smile she was familiar with, and the more she looked at it, the more she underwhelmed, but Lin Jinxiu was used to it, so she didn't say anything about him anymore.
"How much does this shop sell?" Lin Jinxiu asked the man.
The man looked at Huai Yanqing with some confusion.
"It's up to Madame to decide." Huai Yanqing didn't care at all about the man's gaze at him.
The man looked at Huai Yanqing, and then at Lin Jinxiu, only to see Huai Yanqing with an absent-minded smile on his face, but Lin Jinxiu's expression was serious, his eyes were serious, and he looked very reliable.
It turned out that this old man was a strict wife, and the man had a sudden expression of realization on his face.
"Madam, this shop sells this number." Saying that, the man compared Lin Jinxiu with a number of eight.
"Eight hundred taels?" Lin Jinxiu frowned.
The man nodded, "Yes." ”
"Five hundred taels, I want this shop." Lin Jinxiu said expressionlessly.
The men were stunned, and this Lin Jinxiu bargained too hard: "Madam, this is unacceptable, such a big store, it is really unreasonable to sell only six hundred taels!" ”
Lin Jinxiu stretched out her finger and said to the man:
"First, the location of your store is relatively remote, and it is not very easy to do business, so I decided to buy it because of the size and layout of your store."
Without waiting for the man to refute anything, Lin Jinxiu followed up with the second sentence:
"Second, whether it is the only remaining furniture in your shop, even the doors and windows are very old, if I buy it back, I have to dismantle and reinstall it myself, if it is a rough room, it is not worth eight hundred taels to me."
"Third, seeing that there is so much dust in your store, and the sign at the door is a little faded, I'm afraid that your store has been pressed for a lot of time in your hands, if you don't agree to this deal, I'm afraid it will take a long time."
The man was speechless by Lin Jinxiu's words, and seeing that Lin Jinxiu had told all the shortcomings of his store, he could only sigh gloomily.
