Chapter 110: Looking for a shop
On this day, Xiao Qi went to Hua Xi'er to practice kung fu together in the morning, and Hua Xi'er saw Xiao Qi's embarrassment, so she said: "Xiao Qi, I've thought about it for a long time, didn't the master let us help the poor people?" Why don't we open a shop to sell food, and when we have time, we can also give soup porridge at the door of the shop. ”
Xiao Qi clapped his hands, "That's a good idea, let's use stinky duck eggs, man, he's quite clever." ”
Hua Xi'er thought for a while and said, "I still need to recruit another experienced shopkeeper, I have already asked my father to exchange all the jewelry I picked up from Wu Million last time in the field, more than eight hundred taels, enough for us to buy a few shops in the town." ”
Xiao Qi nodded, "All that money is ill-gotten gains, let's use it all for business, buy more food with the money left over from the shop, and when we have time, we will go to the town to give porridge and send steamed buns." When we make more money, we can help more people. ”
A few days later, Stinky Duck Dan drove the carriage to send Xiao Qi and Hua Xi'er to Phoenix Town to find a shop.
This time, I didn't touch the big head at the gate of the theater, which really surprised Xiao Qi, in Xiao Qi's memory, almost every time I came to the town, I could see the big head at the gate of the theater.
Xiao Qi took a look and found Xiao Nan and Xiao Bei on the side.
Xiao Nan didn't wait for Xiao Qi to ask, so he said to Xiao Qi: "Brother Datou is sleeping in the broken temple, I saw Sister Pear Blossom and the owner of Xilai Building go to the Silver Building to buy things together a few days ago, and the people who went with them were full of things, and Sister Pear Blossom smiled happily." ”
Xiaobei: "Sister Lihua's owner looks a little old, she should be forty or fifty years old." The day before Sister Pear Blossom left, the eldest brother brought all the money to find Sister Pear Blossom, and I went with me. ”
Xiaobei scratched his head embarrassedly and continued, "I'm sorry, I eavesdropped on the conversation between the two of them. ”
"The eldest brother said that he would give all his money to Sister Pear Blossom and asked Sister Pear Blossom not to leave, so Sister Pear Blossom asked Brother Pear Blossom if you can give me five hundred taels, can you find a famous doctor for my father...... Then the big brother came back and lay down, and he didn't get up for a few days. ”
Xiao Qi: "I'll go over and see the big brother." ”
Xiao Nan looked embarrassed, "Brother Big Head said that he didn't want to see anyone, or Miss Xiaoqi, you should come to see Brother Big Head next time." ”
Xiao Qi was a little lost, Hua Xi'er took Xiao Qi's hand, "Let's go, let's go and see the shop, I think the location of your aunt's Wen Ji is quite good, let's go find it nearby." ”
Hua Xi'er pulled Xiao Qi into the carriage, "Stinky duck eggs, drive the carriage to the archway in the west of the city, my father said that there is a tooth man surnamed Li there who is quite reliable." ”
"Okay."
The stinky duck egg drove the carriage to the archway steadily, inquired about Li Yaren's home with the people around him, and smoothly brought Li Yaren to the carriage.
Hua Xi'er praised: "This person is really clever, Xiao Qi, this guy you chose is really good." ”
The group arrived next to Wen Kee's shop, and Xiao Qi sent two rabbits into Wen Kee's shop.
Mrs. Wen saw Xiao Qi carrying two fat rabbits, and warmly beckoned Xiao Qi to go to the backyard to drink tea and eat snacks.
Xiao Qi waved his hand, "Thank you, mother-in-law, I still have to leave beforehand, and I will drink tea next time." ”
Li Yaren was very enthusiastic, and took Xiao Qisan to see several shops near Wen Ji Shop.
The third place is two connected shops, there is a small courtyard behind the shop, there is a well in the yard, the water is very convenient, the owner's surname is Lu, he is a person who looks honest, and the price of the two shops and the small courtyard behind them is five hundred taels.
After a closer look inside and outside the three-person room, Xiao Qi was very satisfied, and Hua Xi'er looked at each other and nodded, and was about to agree, when something went wrong.
The stinky duck egg said with a disgusted face: "This house looks a little dilapidated, and it costs a lot of money to renovate it, so let's go and see other shops." ”
Hua Xi'er smiled, "That's right, let's take a look at a few more, it's exactly how we should shop around." ”
Xiao Qi thought that this shop was very good, but when he saw that Hua Xi'er and the stinky duck eggs had objections, he said: "Okay, anyway, we are not in a hurry, let's find it slowly." ”
When a few people walked out of the shop, the owner of the Lu house was anxious, "Don't, if it's because of the silver, we can discuss it again." ”
Xiao Qi didn't expect this price to be cheaper, she looked at the owner of the Lu family, and the owner of the Lu family gritted her teeth, "I'll give you ten taels cheaper." ”
Xiao Qi glanced at Hua Xi'er, and saw that Hua Xi'er didn't react, so he had to follow Hua Xi'er to continue walking.
The voice of the owner of the Lu family was very eager, "Four hundred and fifty taels." ”
Hua Xi'er pulled Xiao Qi and took two steps forward.
"Three hundred and eighty taels, the lowest price, I'm really in a hurry to sell, please think about it again for the girls."
The tooth man was very distressed, thinking that Xiao Qisan should be fooled when he was not old, and wanted to sell it at a high price with the homeowner, but he didn't expect the homeowner to quote the reserve price so quickly.
It's a pity that the owner promised to give him a five-point commission, and the price dropped so much that he made a few taels of silver.
Xiao Qihua Xi'er didn't expect that the stinky duck egg would save so much silver with a disgusting word, and immediately went to the Guxian County Ya with Li Yaren and the owner to go through the formalities.
After completing the formalities and returning to the shop, Hua Xi'er sighed: "The Li Ya people introduced by my father are not reliable at all, and they almost cheated us for more than 100 taels of silver, but this house is not so dilapidated, and it can be opened after cleaning up." ”
Xiao Qi: "Then let the rotten duck eggs help clean it up." ”
Hua Xi'er handed the copper lock to Stinky Duck Egg, "Stinky Duck Egg, then, I will calculate your salary from today." ”
Stinky Duck Egg was very happy, "I'll find someone to clean the shop with me when I go back, and strive to open as soon as possible." ”
Xiao Qi looked at the sky, "It's too late today, you can come over tomorrow to clean up, don't worry, we have to hire an experienced shopkeeper." ”
A few days later, Xiao Qi and Hua Xi'er went to the town to prepare for the opening of the shop, and met Xiao Nan at the gate of the opera garden.
Xiao Nan's eyes were red, "The big brother has left, saying that he is going to the south, and he said that he vaguely remembers that his hometown is in a place called Jiashan in the south of the Yangtze River." ”
The pear blossom is gone, and the big head is also gone, and Xiao Qi feels very lost.
When the two of them arrived at the shop, the shop was almost cleaned up, and a handsome little lady was dusting with a cloth, looking very raw.
At this time, the stinky duck eggs came in from the backyard with a bucket of water, and the little lady stared at the rotten duck eggs, "Why are you so slow, it takes so long to fetch a bucket of water." ”
Seeing Xiao Qi and the two of them, the stinky duck egg explained with a red face, "This is the Cuihua girl from Wangjia Village, and she happened to be free today, so she helped me clean it up." ”
"Cuihua, come and see you, these two are the owners."
Cuihua hurriedly saluted Xiao Qi and Hua Xi'er, and Xiao Qi waved her hand at Cuihua, "Don't be restrained." ”
Stinky Duck Dan blushed and followed Xiao Qi and Hua Xi'er into the backyard.
Hua Xi'er said to the stinky duck egg: "Stinky duck egg, we only need one guy in the shop for the time being." ”
Stinky duck egg: "Cuihua is here to help temporarily, and I give her half of my own salary." ”
Xiao Qi: "Stinky duck eggs, it's the first time I've seen your emerald tweed, and it's really better to see it than to hear it." ”
The stinky duck egg ripped off her clothes, like a shy daughter-in-law, "Cuihua's family is poor, and she said that she wants to make money, so I asked her to come over and help me clean up." ”
Hua Xi'er: "You don't have to deduct it from your salary, you can remember how many days she helped when you look back, and we will pay her." ”
The stinky duck egg smiled, "Thank you for the kindness of Miss Xi and Miss Xiaoqi." ”
