Chapter 173: Two Little Friends
Xu Lanyin smiled again, "My brother is so good at checkers that even Aunt Xu can't play him." ”
Min Jia glanced at Xu Lanyin twice, thinking, you can't get down to me yet.
Xu Lanting looked at Min Jia's unconvinced little eyes, and said arrogantly, "I play checkers, two words, 'domineering'." Four words, 'really domineering'. In the checkers world, if you say that I am second, no one dares to say first. He glanced up and down at Min Jia again, and said disdainfully, "My sister is all my subordinate, let alone you." ”
You're as tall as me, and the two of you are still so thin, where is the domineering?
Min Jia's little face turned red, and he just couldn't say this. There was no choice but to fight his "domineering" on checkers, and the little girl walked towards the little table with checkers.
Xu Lanting gave Xu Lanyin a small look, meaning to see that my agitation method works.
The two villains sat on the Luohan bed and began to play chess. Their checkers were evenly matched, winning and losing half and playing game after game.
The little girl finally met an opponent, and she was so happy that she forgot her original intention.
Xu Lanyin went to the small kitchen to make a fresh snack of fried milk.
The snacks are crispy and tender, and the two children like to eat them very much, and the little girl fully accepts Xiao Zhengtai.
After a break, Xu Lanyin took the two children to play checkers for more than half an hour, and went to the pond for a spin.
The two little pot friends also held hands, and Xiao Zhengtai called Minjia "Jiajia" without seeing the field, and also called himself "little uncle".
Min Jia accepted Xu Lanting so quickly, and the two children were so enthusiastic, which made Xu Lanyin very surprised. She felt even more that the little girl would not refuse the person she liked, and she had a good personality. The reason why he closed himself off was not only because of An's death and the attitude of his family, but also because of the lack of love in the capital Fujian Mansion where he grew up, and he was estranged from the Fujian households who had been away for many years......
In the evening, Steward Hao came to Xu Lanyin and said that Min Hu and Zhao Wu were busy with that case and would not come back today.
He bowed deeply to Xu Lanyin again and said, "Miss Xu, thank you, thank you, that embroidery is so beautiful and chic." I personally took it to the shop today to frame it, and I also went to the carpenter's shop to order a rosewood screen frame......"
Yesterday, Steward Hao opened the embroidery and took a look, and the fresh and unique scenery immediately reminded him of the atmosphere Xu Lanyin created when he hypnotized his master. He felt that this embroidered screen would definitely help the master's insomnia. Seeing this embroidered screen, the master can remember Miss Xu's voice and the scene in the dream......
Xu Lanyin said with a smile, "I hope this embroidery can live up to its mission." ”
The next day, Xu Lanyin took her two children to the Huichun Medical Center to see Xu Lanting, and Steward Hao personally escorted her with six nursing homes.
The old imperial doctor had heard that Xu Lan had the ability to make the Min family sleep, and now he saw that Steward Hao had come with him, and he was even more enthusiastic about Xu Lanyin's sister and brother.
He checked Xu Lanting's pulse, prescribed 20 more pairs of medicines, and said that he would come back in three months. also said that after two or three years of transfer like this, Xu Xiaoge'er's illness will be greatly improved, and it is not certain that he will be able to become a general in the future.
This made Xu Lanyin's sister and brother very happy.
Xu Lan went to buy medicine, and was preemptively paid by Steward Hao, and the same is true for registration.
After that, the group went to the restaurant for dinner, and then took the two sleepy-eyed children back to Fujian.
The next morning, Hu Wan's daughter-in-law Xu came to see Xu Lanyin.
Yesterday, Ding Gu sent the things that the Hu family entrusted them to bring to Hu Wan and his wife, as well as his own gifts. After Ding Gu sent the things, he was accompanied by a small steward from the Min Mansion to inquire about his son's whereabouts.
Xu is very good at talking, and he laughed with Xu Lanyin for more than an hour, mostly talking about department stores. All kinds of deed formalities have been completed, the shopping mall can be built next month, and the Hu family is also mobilizing goods everywhere, striving to decorate and open for trial operation by the end of the year. Because of Xu Lanyin's relationship, Steward Hao took over the shares of the department store sent by Hu Wan on behalf of Fujian households.
Hu Wan has closed all the Hu family's stores in the provincial capital one after another, and put all his money and thoughts on the shopping mall.
The shopping mall is a bit big, in addition to selling the things of the Hu family, it still recruits some merchants to enter, there are Fujian Xu's Tea Shop, Jiangnan Dongli Silk Satin Village, Fu Ji Winery and several other high-quality businesses. The location of these stalls is relatively good and large, and the annual rent is 200 taels of silver.
"So tall?" Xu Lan blurted out.
This rent can rent a two-story shop with a small courtyard in a not very good place at the port.
Xu said with a smile, "The owners of those families have a good relationship with my father, and they also rented it after listening to my father's words and thinking that this kind of shopping mall is novel and may have unexpected effects." I only rented it for one year, and if it sells well, I will continue to rent it. If the business is not working, it will not be rented again. ”
Xu Lanyin was embarrassed to ask about her rent.
Last time, she proposed to Hu Wan that she wanted to rent a partial building connected to the backyard in the front main building, and two backyard wings connected to the partial building. There are a few tables and chairs in the side building, where guests can buy snacks, eat snacks, drink water, and rest. One room is used for snacks, and one room is boiled for hot and cold drinks.
Xu Lanyin's previous idea was that for private reasons, the department store was well run, and selling dim sum here Xu Jia's shop could quickly become famous in the provincial capital. Yu Gong, this is also a business feature, which is beneficial to department stores.
Let Lee bring an apprentice here in advance. Only make a few high-quality snacks, and the amount is smaller, which is responsible for opening up the fame. When they move to the provincial capital, they will bring Xu Dashi and others to rent another yard and expand the scale.
But the annual rent of a few counters is two hundred taels, and I don't know how much it costs for a few rooms in my house. It is so expensive, Xu Lanzhou and the Qin family will definitely not be willing, and they don't have that much money in their own family.
Xu saw Xu Lanyin's hesitation, and said with a smile, "My uncle left those three rooms to Miss Xu, and the rent is sixty taels of silver per year. ”
Xu Lanyin smiled hurriedly, "How embarrassing is this, how much should be charged." ”
Xu smiled, "It's not a serious shop, and the rent is much lower." She glanced outside again and lowered her voice, "Don't hide it from Miss Xu, because of you, my grandfather has a relationship with the Min Mansion, and there is no need to pay a lot of money to climb other high branches, saving a lot of money......
Although Min Hu is the deputy envoy of the judicial department, his father is a scholar of the criminal department, a scholar of the cabinet, and a close minister of the Son of Heaven. If you climb him, you don't need to cling to others, and you can also lay the foundation for opening a shopping mall in Beijing in the future.
I see. Since Steward Hao took it, it means that he can take it.
Xu Lanyin also accepted the kindness of the couple.
As soon as the Xu family was sent away, the mother-in-law from the outer courtyard came, saying that Master Ji invited Xu Lanyin to go to the outer courtyard.
Master Ji came to her, eighty percent for that big case.
