After discussing with Brother Changlin, the two decided to buy a shop to specialize in the wood carving business, as for Aunt Changlin and Sister-in-law Changlin, everything is up to the house.

Fortunately, the people who come to the noodle restaurant to eat every day are mixed, and there are even more teethers. Hearing the news that they were going to buy a shop, they were enthusiastic to come to help, so Li Miaomiao asked a little brother named Song Ping.

Early the next morning, as soon as the noodle restaurant opened, Song Ping came over, and it happened that Brother Changlin sent a few people to the town, and Li Miaomiao and Li Miaomiao followed Song Ping to see the shop.

The shop is on Changping Street, which is one street away from the noodle shop, next to the silver building, and there are some fat powder, groceries, and clothing shops nearby. Aunt Xie's cloth village is on this street, and there are many customers coming and going.

Song Ping took out the key to open the door and invited the two of them in, "This place used to be in the fat powder business, and the business was good. It's just that the boss is a bastard, who is addicted to gambling and has ruined the family business. In the end, she was beaten to death because of gambling debts, and the proprietress was orphaned and widowed, so she couldn't live anymore, so she thought about selling the shop. ”

Li Miaomiao and the others couldn't help but sigh when they heard it, it turned out that there was such a story, and the mother and son were really pitiful.

"Pity the mother and son," Li Miaomiao said with emotion.

"Yes, think about how capable the proprietress is a woman, this fat powder shop is what she single-handedly propped up, but it's a pity that it's ......," Song Ping said.

I took people to visit again, the shop is very good, the space is very large, the decoration inside is still very new, it is empty, except for the counter, there is not even a chair left. It seems that the boss has really lost all his family.

Li Miaomiao is generally satisfied, the only drawback is that there is no backyard, and the goods are not easy to store at that time.

"What do you think, are you satisfied?" Song Ping asked, several people have come to ask about this shop, but no one has bought it, which makes him a little anxious.

Li Miaomiao looked at Brother Changlin, and Changlin stepped forward and said, "I won't tell you, this shop is not bad, but I don't know how much money the master wants to sell?" ”

"We are all acquaintances, so I'll tell you a reserve price, two hundred taels." Song Ping said the offer given by the master's family, and he didn't expect to make money, get rid of the house, and help the orphan and widow.

Li Miaomiao and the two exchanged glances again, and Brother Changlin said again, "I won't give you an answer now, let's go back and discuss it with our family, after all, buying a shop is not a trivial matter." ”

Song Ping naturally understood, "Then I'll wait for the good news." ”

Li Miaomiao and the others went back to discuss with everyone, but Changlin's sister-in-law and Li Dazhuang didn't know the details and didn't express their opinions.

But the shopkeeper Zhu expressed his opinion, "I know that shop, it's very good, such a big shop, and it's on Changping Street, two hundred taels is really not much." "There are also orphans and widows, who are really pitiful, but there are so many poor people in the world, he naturally won't say what he thinks to affect Li Miaomiao's decision.

Li Miaomiao discussed it with Brother Changlin again, and the two of them decided to buy the shop.

When everyone dispersed, Changlin called Li Miaomiao to the backyard, and said embarrassedly, "Miaomiao, I won't tell you, I'm still happy about buying a shop, that is, that ......" Changlin didn't know how to speak.

Li Miaomiao looked at his cramped appearance and vaguely guessed something, "Brother Changlin, what do you say, and what do you have to hide from me." ”

"I'm really embarrassed, when I signed the contract, we said that it was five or five points, and the principal was too, but now I, I can't take out a hundred taels or so much", all his net worth doesn't add up to so much, Changlin feels more and more embarrassed.

Li Miaomiao couldn't help but laugh when she heard it, "What's the matter, I paid out this money, and my name is written on the deed, and it is also my real estate." When the shop opens, let's follow the contract. ”

"That's so embarrassing", Changlin felt that he had taken advantage of it again.

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about, the house I bought is mine at all times, even if I don't have you, I have to do my own business, and now I just use it." Li Miaomiao didn't feel that she was at a loss, she just thought she had invested in real estate, no matter what era she was, real estate investment was the most reliable.

Changlin was no longer entangled, and Song Ping came to eat at noon and told him.

After receiving the money, Song Ping was naturally happy, and immediately went to the yamen to get the deed.

The noodle shop was closed, and Song Ping also sent the deed. Holding the deed, Li Miaomiao's heart was excited, in addition to the village, she is now also a person with two properties.

"I'm troublesome to Brother Song Ping this time," Li Miaomiao thanked him.

"Don't bother, don't bother, if you need anything in the future, just look for me." Song Ping said politely.

"I heard that the shop was taken care of by the proprietress before, I don't know if it's true?" Li Miaomiao asked. When the shop opens, she must find someone who can take care of it, she has other things to do, so she can only find someone else.

When Song Ping heard this, he couldn't help but feel happy, "Yes, I won't tell you, the proprietress is a distant relative of mine, and she is a good hand at taking care of the store, not only can she read and break words, but also settle accounts." The previous shop asked her to take care of it very prosperously. ”

Li Miaomiao and Brother Changlin have also discussed, if she can, she will not look for anyone else.

"Can you bring someone to meet us, if you can, I want to ask her to be the shopkeeper in the shop." Li Miaomiao said.

"Of course, you wait, I'll bring someone over right away." Song Ping said that he ran away as soon as he smoked.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Song Ping came over with a young woman, followed by a boy of eleven or twelve years old.

Li Miaomiao carefully looked at the woman in front of her, she was about thirty years old, her appearance was mediocre, her clothes were white, but she was clean and tidy, she looked respectful and respectful, her eyes were not dazzling, and she looked steady and honest.

The teenager who followed behind was too, and it was a lot more reassuring to watch.

Li Miaomiao asked some more about business, and she answered very carefully and thoughtfully, and Li Miaomiao was very satisfied.

Let the three of them sit down first, Li Miaomiao took Changlin and his family to the backyard and asked their opinions.

"Miao Miao, we all listen to you." Sister-in-law Changlin said.

Brother Changlin listened to their conversation, and he didn't understand anything about it, but he also understood that the woman was a good hand at doing business, "I also think it's feasible."

So the three of them came to the front, "What do you call your aunt?" "After chatting for so long, I forgot to ask what someone's name was.

"The owner calls me Chun Niang", Chun Niang said, and pulled her son over to the side, "This is my boy, Qibao."

"Then I will also tell Chun Niang, we want to hire you as the shopkeeper in the store, it can be seen that you are a good hand in business, and the store will rely on you more in the future." Li Miaomiao said.

"The owner has a good reputation, it was you who gave me the opportunity, and I should thank you." Chunniang is grateful from the bottom of her heart, after paying off her husband's gambling debts for two hundred taels, there is nothing left, and she is worried about her livelihood.

"Then it's decided, this is the big owner of our store, and I'm the second owner", Li Miaomiao pulled Changlin over and introduced.

It made Changlin blush for a while, and he actually became the owner.

The two saluted each other.

Looking at the young man beside Chunniang, Li Miaomiao asked, "I don't know how old your son is, can he come to work in the store?" "There's still a lack of a junior in the store.

Chun Niang's face was happy when she heard this, "This kid is thirteen years old, and he used to help in the shop." ”

"Then Shippo should come to the store to help."

Chunniang took her son to thank her again.
