Qingfu Town has been established for a long time, and He'an Mansion is close to the south of the Yangtze River, which is richer than the northwest side of Zhongzhou, but all rich families who have some ability will send people to search for shops everywhere, as long as there is something to sell, it will soon be bought.

"Qingfu Town is just three streets. The front street, the back street, the main street, all the shops on the street have owners. And the shops on Main Street have long been occupied by the rich families in the county. ”

Even the two streets that are not good in the front street and the back street, the shop was bought by the family of the mayor, the scribe's family, and the family of the official.

The rest of the shops are left by people who have lived in the town for nearly 100 years, which is the ancestral industry, and the yard of the front shop and the back house is the foundation of people's lives, and no one will sell it.

Doctor Wu made it clear to them the relationship between the shops on the street: "The old man has been in the town for more than 20 years, that is, five years ago, Master Zhou's house on the main street sold a shop. If you want to buy a shop, it's difficult. ”

Gu Jinli frowned when he heard this, it was so difficult to buy a shop in Qingfu Town.

The Chen family originally came happily, and wanted to buy a shop to be the shopkeeper, but when he heard Dr. Wu's words, he had a thunderous expression: "What can I do?" Doctor Wu, can't you help us in the Hanging Pot Workshop? ”

"Chen, what are you talking about, shut up quickly." The third grandfather scolded the Chen family, Doctor Wu has already helped them a lot, they can't let Doctor Wu help them with everything.

"Brother Wu, juniors are not sensible, don't care."

Doctor Wu waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay." ”

Gu Dagui and his wife have been in the town to set up a stall for so long, and the people in the Hanging Pot Shop have long known Chen's temper. This person is not bad-hearted, but he loves to be cheap, and sometimes he has no door to speak.

While they were talking, Gu Jinli untied the bamboo tube around his waist, took out paper, pen and ink, and began to write and draw.

She learned it from Qin Saburo. Qin Saburo would carry a machete, a rope, a fire fold, and two small bamboo tubes, a small bamboo tube containing a brush and rolled up yellow paper, and a small bamboo tube containing the ink that had been turned on.

After a while, she drew a simple map of Qingfu Town according to her memory, and asked Dr. Wu: "Grandpa Wu, is the vacant land outside the town's gatehouse from the town or from Shangjia Village?" ”

Shangjia Village is the closest village to the town, and outside the gatehouse of the town, there is a large wasteland, those wasteland, I don't know whose it is?

And Gu Jinli is interested in that wasteland.

There is no one in town to sell shops, it doesn't matter, she can buy land and build it herself!

Doctor Wu couldn't answer: "I don't know, the land outside the gatehouse has been barren for a long time." When I came, it used to be a pond, but then because there was no living water, it stinked in the summer, and everyone filled it up, and now no one cares where the people in the town pile up the garbage, that is, every month the people who pour night incense will go to burn the garbage. ”

Gu Jinli frowned, who belonged to that wasteland, even Doctor Wu didn't know.

Mrs. Wu is old and mature, and when she heard Gu Jinli ask, she knew what she was thinking. However, Doctor Wu is not such a shallow person, even if he knew, he would not go to grab that piece of land with Gu Jinli, but reminded: "Shang Xiucai or the Jiang family may know that if you want to do this, you have to avoid some people, lest you attract people's eyes before you finish it." ”

The boy was a clever man, and his eyes were poisonous, and he could see the wasteland at a glance.

"Yes, the juniors know, thank you Grandpa Wu for reminding me." Gu Jinli smiled and thanked Dr. Wu. Doctor Wu is right, as the saying goes, the meat that no one robs is rotten meat, but once someone robs it, the rotten meat will become a Buddha jumping over the wall, and immediately give you ten miles of incense.

"Xiaoyu, Doctor Wu, what kind of dumb riddle are you playing?" Chen was anxious, ran over and stared at Gu Jinli and asked.

Gu Jinli stretched out his hand to push her away, put away the simple map he had drawn, and said, "I didn't play dumb riddles, we were talking about human words." ”

Chen choked, Gu Jinli, a dead child, secretly harmed her every time she spoke, but she couldn't do anything to her, Gu Jinli was fierce and loved to use knives, she was not her opponent.

The third grandfather said: "Don't ask, what Xiaoyu is going to do, which time is not good for us?" If you ask questions and ruin the little fish, I can't spare you. ”

Don't look at Chen's spicy, but she is very afraid of the third grandfather, hearing this, although her heart is itching, she wants to know Gu Jinli's plan, but she can only give up.

Gu Jinli already had a plan in his heart, so he handed a silver ticket of one hundred taels to Doctor Wu: "Grandpa Wu, this is the money for medicinal materials you sent the day before yesterday, you can take it first." ”

He said embarrassedly: "If things go well, the rest of the money for medicinal materials may be owed, and I won't be able to give it to you until April 26, after Lei Wuye settles the payment for us." ”

Doctor Wu took the silver ticket and said, "Cheng, isn't it just credit, I'm afraid that you won't be able to run away." ”

Old Doctor Wu has some backgrounds, he has seen a lot of money, a few hundred taels is nothing in his eyes, and he can trust the Gu family.

Although they fled the famine, they are all honest people.

Gu Jinli was very grateful, and accompanied Dr. Wu for a while, played with Du Xusheng and Du Dingxiang for a while, and then said goodbye and left.

Dr. Wu asked Du Xusheng's brothers and sisters to send them off.

After leaving the Hanging Pot Workshop, Du Xusheng said: "Grandpa Gu San, come and see us when you have time, Grandpa has been talking to you several times, saying that he wants to drink with you." ”

Grandpa often said that they fled the famine, and they had no backers in Qingfu Town, and they were fellow villagers with Grandpa Gusan, so they had to deal with each other a lot, and if something happened to his family in the future, they could have someone to help.

"Eh, the third grandfather knows, go back and tell your grandfather, come back next time, I will definitely wait for him to come back, and I will leave after drinking with him."

"Okay, I'll tell Grandpa." Du Xusheng responded happily.

The third grandfather touched Du Xusheng's head with a smile, and turned around and left with a few people.

Gu Jinli said: "Third grandfather, let's not wait for Uncle Luo and them to close the stall, let's go to Shangjia Village." ”

She had to ask whose land it was? Is there a master or no master? If you don't have an owner, you can go directly to the county office to buy it.

The third grandfather said, "Okay, let's go." ”

When Chen heard this, he shouted, "Third Uncle, let's go back now?" Don't go to town and ask which shop has a shop to sell? ”

Luo Huiniang said: "Aunt Gui, Dr. Wu has already said that the shops in this town are all owned by owners, and no one sells them, so what are you going to ask?" I didn't have to be blasted out. ”。

"You know what? Even if no one sells it at the beginning, as long as we are willing to pay more, there will naturally be those who are willing to sell when they see the money. "The Chen family is very wealthy, and they think that as long as they spend money, there must be people in the town who are willing to sell the shop.
