"Mother, what are you in a hurry?" Fu Xiaojiu greeted him and helped Wan Pozi, who was panting.

Wan Pozi took a few breaths before saying, "I'm in a hurry to come back and get the silver to call for money!" I have my eye on a suitable place to be our workshop, and there is another person in that place who has taken a fancy to it, and I won't be able to grab it if I don't pay the deposit quickly! ”

"What's so sought-after?" Fu Xiaojiu was curious.

Wan Pozi waved her hand, "I won't tell you first, I'll go get the silver first." ”

Wan Pozi took out three hangs of money from the money box on the counter, and then said to Fu Xiaojiu: "That place is not far from our medical hall, it used to be a dyeing workshop, and the family just moved away." I went to see it, the yard is big, the house is not small, it can dry medicine, and there is a place to make medicine, and the rent for a year is only twenty taels of silver, I fell in love at a glance! ”

Fu Xiaojiu was also moved by what Wan Pozi said, and hurriedly went with Wan Pozi.

But as soon as the two of them arrived at Yaxing, the shopkeeper of Yaxing said to them: "I'm sorry, auntie, the courtyard you fancy has been given." ”

Wan Pozi glared angrily, "What? Why don't you talk about your credibility? Didn't you say that whoever goes back first to get the deposit will be the one who owns the yard? We arrived first, why can't the yard be rented to us? ”

The shopkeeper of the tooth shop took the note in his hand, shook it in front of Wan Pozi and Fu Xiaojiu, and said: "As soon as you left with your front foot just now, people went directly to Qianzhuang to pay thirty taels of silver, and I am now renting thirty taels of silver to others in this courtyard." People directly gave me the full amount, and took the initiative to give a price increase, do you say I can not rent the yard to others? ”

"Then you can't ...... either" Wan Pozi wanted to say something, but Fu Xiaojiu stopped her.

"Mother, forget it, since the yard has been rented by others, we don't have to force it. The shopkeeper of the tooth shop, is there a house similar to that house, with a big yard and a big house? ”

Fu Xiaojiu didn't want to hang himself from a tree, and felt that there must be a similar mansion.

The shopkeeper thought for a moment and replied, "It is true that there is a mansion similar to it, but that mansion is not so close to your medical hall, and the rent is higher, and it costs fifty taels of silver a year." It's not that I started the price on the spot, that's the market. ”

Wan Pozi said angrily: "I think you are starting the price on the spot!" You black-hearted thing, how much more money have you earned us! ”

Fu Xiaojiu hurriedly grabbed Mrs. Wan and asked calmly: "Since this house can be rented for fifty taels and one year, it must be worth this price." Then I would like you to take us to see what the house is all about. ”

If it were someone else, the shopkeeper of the tooth store might not care about it, but Fu Xiaojiu's current reputation in the county town is not worse than Li, and even more respected than Li Dalong, so the shopkeeper of the tooth shop can still greet them with a smile.

The shopkeeper of the tooth shop is not a dead-eyed person, and said with a smile: "Hehe, since I made you pounce just now, I can't help but make no compensation." In this way, I will personally take you to see the house, and if you don't win, you don't have to give me money for running errands, and you can see as many as you want. ”

Fu Xiaojiu thanked the shopkeeper of the tooth shop, Wan Pozi glanced at him, and muttered: "This is like a human saying." ”

The shopkeeper of the tooth shop took the two of them to the front of the mansion of fifty two years, not to mention, this mansion does look more magnificent than Wan Pozi before, as soon as he entered the courtyard, the spacious yard and the tidy house made Wan Pozi and Fu Xiaojiu very satisfied.

And this house is very close to Fu Xiaojiu's family, and there are only two houses separated from the county school.

However, Wan Pozi and Fu Xiaojiu still retreated a little considering the rent of this house.

Fu Xiaojiu said to the shopkeeper of the tooth shop: "Please take us to see other houses again." ”

The shopkeeper of the tooth shop persuaded Fu Xiaojiu: "How good is this house, Fu Langzhong, with your strength, it shouldn't be a problem to rent a house like this, right?" ”

Fu Xiaojiu shook his head, "I've been using a lot of silver recently, and I have to save some." ”

The shopkeeper of the tooth shop said helplessly: "Then it's done, I'll take you two to see other houses." ”

The shopkeeper of the tooth shop took Fu Xiaojiu and Wan Pozi out of the door, and they just walked out of the house a few steps when they met an acquaintance.

"Fu Lang Zhong!"

Master Xu saw that Fu Xiaojiu was very kind, walked closer, and politely saluted Mrs. Wan.

As soon as the shopkeeper saw Master Xu, he hurriedly greeted him politely, "Ouch, isn't this Xu Yuanwai?" Are you walking? ”

Master Xu also smiled politely at him, "I just finished drinking with my friends, and I took a walk to eliminate food." The three of you are looking at the house? ”

The shopkeeper of the tooth shop suddenly slapped his head, "Oh, I just remembered that this house belongs to your name!" ”

Master Xu nodded and said, "That's right, this house is indeed mine." Do you want to buy or rent? ”

Fu Xiaojiu didn't expect that this house actually belonged to the Xu family.

"What a coincidence! I want to rent a house to do a pharmaceutical workshop, I saw a suitable house before, but unfortunately it was rented first, no, the shopkeeper took us to see this house. ”

When Master Xu heard this, he said happily: "You are going to open a workshop?" That's great! What do you think of this house, are you satisfied? ”

Fu Xiaojiu said embarrassedly: "This house is good, but the rent is a little higher." ”

Master Xu immediately said: "If I'm not mistaken, the rent of this house is fifty taels of silver a year, right?" ”

"You're right!" The shopkeeper said.

Master Xu immediately said happily: "Since Fu Langzhong has taken a fancy to my house, how about my rent for thirty or two years?" ”

"What?" The shopkeeper of the tooth shop was frightened by the price quoted by Master Xu.

Master Xu ignored him, and then said: "If there is anything missing in the rich man, just tell me, don't be polite to me!" ”

Fu Xiaojiu hurriedly said: "You have lowered the rent for me so low, how can I be embarrassed to let you buy me more things?" I'm content enough! ”

Master Xu said to the shopkeeper of the tooth shop again: "I still have a lot of houses for rent and sale in your place, right?" ”

The shopkeeper nodded with a smile.

Master Xu also smiled, "My house is in your hands, but I sold it and rented a lot." ”

The shopkeeper of the tooth shop immediately understood what Master Xu meant.

There is more than one tooth shop in the county, if the shopkeeper of the tooth shop dislikes the low rent that Master Xu gave to Fu Xiaojiu, and let him make less money on the difference, Master Xu will turn around and transfer all the houses he wants to buy and sell and lease to other tooth shops.

The shopkeeper didn't dare to offend Master Xu, so he said with a smile: "Hehehe, Xu Yuan's family has a big business, and nearly half of the houses in the county are yours." ”

Master Xu didn't talk nonsense to him anymore, and said directly: "Let's go, go back to the tooth store and sign the lease deed with Fulang, don't delay the business of the other people's medical center." ”

The shopkeeper of the tooth shop said again and again: "Okay! Xu Yuanwai is really righteous, and I have to learn more from you in the future! ”

Fu Xiaojiu and Wan Pozi were secretly happy in their hearts, and happily signed the lease deed.

After signing the lease deed, Fu Xiaojiu and Mrs. Wan thanked Master Xu and hurried back to the infirmary, and found that there were a few men standing in the infirmary who didn't look like they were seeing a doctor or buying things.

Wan Feizhi saw that they were back, so he trotted over and said to Fu Xiaojiu: "Third sister-in-law, they all want to work in the workshop, what kind of people do you see meet your standards?" ”

Fu Xiaojiu greeted them all first, and then asked them all about their ages and addresses, as well as what they had done before.

After these people answered, Fu Xiaojiu felt that four of these people were more in line with her wishes.

All four of them were in their thirties and forties, and they looked like men with strength and neatness.

Fu Xiaojiu asked them to come over early tomorrow morning to report, and first clean up the workshop together, and from tomorrow onwards, the monthly salary is 800 yuan.

Hearing this salary, everyone froze.

Among these individual workers in the county, Fu Xiaojiu's salary is probably the highest.

They all thanked the rich nine thousand thanks, and they all said that they would do their best.

Wan Pozi heard that Fu Xiaojiu actually gave them so much wages, and when these people left, she felt a little distressed about the silver.

"Xiao Jiu, do you need to give them so much wages? Your wages have caught up with other people's houses! ”

Fu Xiaojiu patiently explained: "Making medicine is not an easy job, it has to test their eyesight, physical strength and brain power, and some medicines also require superb skills to be made, such as rolling pills, which requires the person who rolls the pills to roll the pills evenly, which seems simple, but it is actually very testing people." ”

After listening to this, Wan Pozi finally understood the meaning of high wages.

"Xiao Jiu, then look, your second brother is still working in the wine shop, see if he can ......"

Wan Pozi was actually a little embarrassed to speak, but in order to let Wan Er earn more money and quickly repay all the debts owed, Wan Pozi still said it with a shy old face.

Fu Xiaojiu knew what kind of temper Wan Pozi was, so she knew how awkward it was for her to say these words.

Therefore, Fu Xiaojiu adjusted his voice very softly, and said with a smile on his face: "Mother, in fact, if you don't say it, I still have to tell you." I was about to discuss with you about letting my second brother come to work with me. I thought that we can't usually be in the workshop, but the second brother can still help us watch the workshop, and he can stay there at night, and he can also watch the medicinal herbs. ”

"Xiao Jiu, do you really think so?" Wan Pozi still didn't dare to believe Fu Xiaojiu's thoughts.

Fu Xiaojiu continued: "I really think so. The second brother is careful and can endure hardships, so I will teach him a few pharmaceutical methods first, so that he can learn to guide those people. ”

Fu Xiaojiu's empathy made Mrs. Wan cry with gratitude, Mrs. Wan tightly held Fu Xiaojiu's hand and sniffled, "Xiao Jiu, don't say anything, my mother has a daughter-in-law like you who has accumulated great virtue in her last life!" ”

Fu Xiaojiu smiled embarrassedly, "Mother, look at what you said." ”

Wan Feizhi finished the work in hand at this time, walked over in a hurry, took Wan Pozi's arm, and asked with a wicked smile: "Mother, aren't you afraid that the second brother will stay comfortable in the county and take the second sister-in-law over, and their family will settle down in the county from now on?" ”
