Twelve years of Zhengkang.

On the tenth day of the first lunar month, people who nested at home for the New Year by the way cats in winter gave up the hot kang head one after another a few days earlier, so that the county streets that were originally a little lonely because of the year began to be lively again.

Zhong Xiaohe was a little reluctant to slip on the three streets in the east, she wanted to see if she could pick up a leak, of course, it was best to be on the east first street.

The last three streets are finished, and the leak is not picked up, but the more I look at it, the more desperate I become, as Lao Zhong said, they are all old shops for many years, and whoever has nothing to do will take the shop out.

"A talent like Yao Baoyu is, after all, a minority of the few."

Suddenly, there was a commotion in front of me, which was on the corner of East 3rd Street.

If there is excitement, it is a bastard, passers-by have that good thing, hurry up and trot a few steps over to see the excitement, there is Zhong Xiaohe in it.

Along the gap in the human head, I saw that there were two couples arguing angrily.

After listening to it for a long time, coupled with the whispering of the onlookers, Zhong Xiaohe also understood that the two women on the field who hated the corners of their eyes and eyebrows were actually a pair of concubines, and the two men were a pair of brothers.

But it's a drama of brothers fighting the wall.

The two brothers died early, leaving their father, and the father died suddenly on Chinese New Year's Eve, leaving behind a yard and this shop, which is also the source of the brothers' discord.

There is no objection to the courtyard where I live, and the middle road wall separates the two families, but this shop, that is, the Xie incense and candle shop in front of me, has a controversy.

The boss said: My father is old, and I have been running the shop for many years, and the second child has not paid, and he is not good at management, and the shop is also defeated for him. It's not that I don't take money to compensate him, I have to do it.

The second child said: The code stipulates that all sons are divided equally, so why only make up a little money. What's the use of you making up that little money, I want chickens that can lay eggs all the time, otherwise how will my family live in the future.

Everyone is also gossiping, some accusing the eldest and some accusing the second.

Suddenly, someone pushed aside the crowd and shouted: Boss Xie Xie Er, it's you again, you have something to do when you go home and fight, and the road has been blocked several times in broad daylight!

The voice was familiar, Zhong Xiaohe looked sideways, but it was the handsome and handsome Wang Zhukuai.

When Boss Xie saw that the duke was coming, he squeezed out a smile, "Wang catches quickly, I don't want to, the second child comes over every day to make trouble, what can I do."

The second child was about to speak, but Wang Zhu quickly said:

"How many days has this been arguing? Sell the shop and divide the money, and the shop is rented out and the rent is divided. Even if the shop is divided into two parts, Xie Lao Da runs his own half, and Xie Lao Er's half is rented out, is it a chicken that lays eggs? This doesn't work, that doesn't work, you should go to Bo Gongcourt as soon as possible, ask the county official to judge, and disturb others in the province. ”

"Wang Zhukuai's words are reasonable, Xie Boss, Xie Er, hurry back to the house, what is it difficult for the brothers to discuss? Lose your face outside, waiting for your father to lift the coffin board? A familiar old man also echoed the persuasion.

When the second son of the Xie family and the two concubines heard this, their faces seemed to move.

When Zhong Xiaohe saw it, his eyes flashed slightly, afraid that his opportunity had come.

Take another look at Wang Zhukuai, this person is much more mature than the first time I saw him. And this person is afraid that he is his own lucky star, or his own lucky star, and he has helped himself or himself several times.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly waved his hand a few times with Wang Yu through the crowd.

Wang Zhu couldn't see it if he wanted to. The main reason is that the hand waving is too enthusiastic, and the smile on her face is also very infectious, and her heart is warm, but it is also strange, what is the girl of the Zhong family doing with her so enthusiasm?

……

Zhong Xiaohe hurriedly went home and found the big donkey's teeth, and asked him to follow Xie Laoer, if Xie Laoer wanted to rent a shop, he had to hurry up and settle it before others.

"As long as it doesn't exceed ten taels, let's decide." Zhong Xiaohe gritted her teeth, ten taels is her limit, she just hopes to be lower.

His shop is a bit biased, not too big, not as good as the Zhong family's cloth shop, and at the corner, and then divided into two, the rent will not exceed ten taels.

The big donkey's teeth followed for a day without results, and the next morning followed, and this time he finally had the right words, and the matter was done.

It's just disappointing that the rent is really ten taels, so Xie Lao Er has no other inputs, so he pointed to this, Zhong Xiaohe was anxious to contact, and naturally refused to reduce the rent.

……

"Girl, are you sure you want to rent here?" The old bell didn't like this place too much.

"Yes, Dad, there is little money here, and I can't afford to rent a good place, so let's save some money first."

Lao Zhong nodded, "The lease contract must be signed, Dad will give you a good look, there is a dispute in this shop, and it is best for both brothers to sign the contract." ”

It's all right to have an old clock watching.

It's just that when I was handing over the money, there was almost a problem.

Just when Zhong Xiaohe was about to take out the silver, Lao Zhong smiled, "How much money do you have?" At most, it's only ten taels. Knocking on the contract, he said: "I have to pay for half a year." "Naturally, it takes a long time to open a store, but who let Zhong Xiaohe have no money, he only asked for half a year.

Zhong Xiaohe's hand trembled, and he almost forgot, Lao Zhong didn't know that he still had the income of skin care products, Emma, Zhong Xiaohe withdrew his hand, wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead, and sneered: "Dad, I almost forgot." ”

Lao Zhong scolded her for being a little confused, and then took out sixty taels of silver from his sleeve and paid it to the other party.

"Dad, when I make money, I'll pay you back."

"So ambitious? Okay, dad waits. Lao Zhong was very pleased, feeling that his daughter had inherited her perseverance and mind in business.

Oh, it's okay, it just so happens that the silver is not enough.

I saved for another year, my grandmother gave some New Year's money, and secretly borrowed some from my mother, which will be sixty taels, and the money for decoration is still waiting to be earned slowly, this time it's good, no interest loan, not limited, much more reliable than the bank.

The contract is well written, because the Xie family's shop is divided into two, and Xie Lao Er is responsible for building a wall on a regular basis and separating it from Xie Lao's family.

Although Boss Xie was a little unhappy that the store he ran was cut out in half, he was helpless. disagreed, according to the meaning of the second child, he might really be in court, but he still had to give it in the end, so he had to hold back his grievances and sign it.

On the Zhong family's side, Lao Zhong asked Zhong Xiaohe to sign it. The Chinese person was invited by Zhong Xiaohe, and it was Wang Zhukuai.

Wang Zhukuai was also surprised, just now he heard the little girl say that he would pay back his father's rent, and he was really renting it for his daughter, "Expensive daughter...... Hah, that's amazing. Speaking of his daughter, he remembered the nickname given to this girl by the people in the county, and he wanted to laugh a little.

Lao Zhong laughed: "That's, my daughter is amazing." ”

Seeing that Lao Zhong's face was not modest or proud, Wang Zhuai also smiled, he was really spoiled by his daughter.

"What kind of store are you going to open?"

"Uh...... Grocery store. Oh, tradition, tradition. In the future, I will have to rely more on Brother Wang. ”

"Dad, I'm going to make an upgraded version of the grocery store, and the name is all ready, Longchang Department Store."

Longchang Department Store? Longchang can understand, the department store is strange.

"This name is weird, it's not as good as the Zhong family's grocery store."

Burst~

"Dad, I can rent this shop, Uncle Wang is indispensable, you take me to invite Uncle Wang."

Wang Zhukuai's young face was a little embarrassed, every time this girl called him Uncle Wang, she always felt very awkward, maybe this child looked a little big.
