Chapter 36: Of course it's true

"Don't worry, as long as you really have news, Xiaoer, I will definitely not treat you badly."

As he spoke, Xu Yan also took out a few copper plates and handed them to Xiao Er.

Seeing the money she handed over, Xiao Er, who was originally entangled in his face, immediately changed to a smiling face, and the speed at which his face changed, Xu Yan's family was stunned.

Xiao Er quickly received the money in his arms, looked left and right, as if he was a thief for fear of being discovered by others, and then said flattering to Xu Yan:

"This matter guest officer, you are really asking the right person about the villain, if you ask others, they really don't necessarily know, you look there."

As he spoke, Xiao Er pointed to a table not far away.

The people who were originally petrified by Xiao Er's changes before and after, heard Xiao Er's words and looked at Xiao Er's fingers.

I saw that Xiao Er was referring to a middle-aged man with a rich body on the table next to him, who was leisurely pouring himself a drink, so happy.

"See, that's the money shopkeeper, he's selling his own shop, you must go to him."

"Really?" Xu Yan, who felt that things were too coincidental, asked Xiao Er in disbelief.

"Of course really, if you don't believe it, you can ask." Xiao Er saw that Xu Yan didn't believe him, and immediately assured him.

Xu Yan, who still didn't believe it, got up directly when he heard the words, and opened the meal next to the money shopkeeper.

"Dare to ask, but the money shopkeeper?"

"Exactly, I don't know what your Excellency is looking for me?"

Seeing Xu Yan who disturbed her meal, the shopkeeper frowned, not knowing what she was looking for.

"I just heard Xiao Er say that the shopkeeper has a shop to sell, and it just so happens that we are more interested, so we have come to you for verification, and I hope that Haihan will be disturbed."

Seeing that the money shopkeeper was a little unhappy with his behavior of disturbing his meal with himself, he hurriedly explained.

"It's true, I just bought a new shop, and I'm going to sell the original small shop, if you're interested, you can go with me to see it later."

Hearing that Xu Yan was here to talk about business, the attitude of the shopkeeper suddenly improved a lot, and he also gave Xu Yan a little introduction to the situation of the store.

"We're interested, so I'm sorry for you." Xu Yan was quite satisfied with the situation of the shopkeeper Qian, but he couldn't make a decision before he saw it specifically, so he agreed with the shopkeeper that there was enough time to see the house, and turned around and returned to his seat.

After the meal, the family followed the money shopkeeper to the small shop he wanted to sell.

I saw that the location of the small shop is not bad, although the store is not big, but there is a small courtyard behind, which is enough for my family to live and usually produce rouge gouache.

Although the house is some years old, the rooms are very tidy, as long as you bring your own things, you can move in directly.

Xu Yan's family was very satisfied with this shop, and decided to buy this shop after discussion.

"How about it, my shop is good, not only has a storefront outside, but also this yard in the back, ten taels of silver is definitely worth the money."

Seeing that Xu Yan's family had discussed, the money shopkeeper boasted about his shop while asking for the price.

"How many years has your house been built, and it has been broken like this, and we have to renovate it after we buy it...... Let's do it, we're going to have five taels. ”

When Xu Yan heard the shopkeeper's offer, he was not ambiguous, and while finding fault with the house, he directly cut the price of the shopkeeper in half, which was also the essence of bargaining.

"Five taels, don't even think about it, I'll tell you......" Hearing Xu Yan's bargaining, the money shopkeeper was also startled, and then directly started a bargaining with Xu Yan.

Yuan Junxian, Yuan Xiu and Yuan Yun looked at Xu Yan in front of him who was bargaining with the money shopkeeper in full combat, and his mouth was open enough to stuff an egg.

"Is this really our mother?" Yuan Yun sniffed Yuan Xiu uncertainly.

"It should be, right......" Yuan Xiu also replied hesitantly, although the gentle and considerate mother in his impression looks exactly the same as the person in front of him, the personality gap is so big!

In the end, after a long discussion between Xu Yan and the money shopkeeper, Xu Yan finally bought the store at a price of seven taels.

Xu Yan, who had negotiated the price of the house, turned around and saw the three Yuan Junxian, who were still in the petrification and had not yet regained consciousness.

Looking at the surprised expressions of the three of them, Xu Yan couldn't help but laugh softly.

"Okay, come back to your senses, it's late today, wait until tomorrow we go to the yamen to register, give the money, this shop will be ours, let's go first, it's not too early."

Xu Yan woke up the three people in a daze and returned to the inn to rest together.

The next day, Xu Yan went through the formalities with the money shopkeeper and gave the silver, which was regarded as officially owning the shop and settling down in this town.

When she came out, Siniang didn't have much to give, and after the expenses along the way, plus the cost of buying a store, there was not much left.

In order to make a living, Xu Yan plans to open his rouge gouache shop as soon as possible.

In the next few days, Yuan Junxian and Xu Yan were busy with their feet, running almost all the shops and corners in the town, and finally solved the problem of producing raw materials.

The subsequent production and sales are already familiar to Xu Yan, and there is no problem at all.

There was no grand opening ceremony, and there was no congratulatory celebration from the neighbors, so Xu Yan's beauty store opened quietly.

Although Xu Yan did not prepare any grand and novel publicity methods to promote his small store because he didn't want to be in the limelight, the good quality and cheap reputation was the best publicity.

With the excellent quality of the goods in the store and the approachable price, Xu Yan's small shop quickly made a reputation.

With the fermentation of the reputation of Xu Yan's store, more and more customers come here to buy some affordable cosmetics, not to mention, there are new varieties that are not available elsewhere.

It's just that the manpower is limited, Xu Yan has to produce and sell by himself, and he doesn't have much time, plus he doesn't want to be too showy, so he just makes some makeup powder and lipstick to be sold out.

Perfume, aromatherapy or something, although she can make it, it is too time-consuming and experience-consuming, so she gives up for the time being.

With the prosperity of the business, the family's money bag that had bottomed out has swelled again, and the family has taken up savings again, and the living standard has naturally improved a lot.

Xu Yan can't always wear a veil when receiving guests every day, not to mention that she is still in the beauty business, and sometimes she needs to give people some demonstrations.

But Xu Yan's yin and yang face is too obvious, although his family has been far away from the town where he used to live, and no one here knows his family.

But if someone recognizes him because of his face and spreads the news to the original town, it will be a trouble after all.

Xu Yan, who was helpless, had to put on makeup for herself every day before opening the store.

Fortunately, she herself is engaged in cosmetics such as rouge gouache, and she has everything she needs in her own store.

Everyone has a love for beauty.

Xu Yan, who had no blemishes on his face, was so beautiful that within a few days, he attracted some wild bees and butterflies to chase him.

It doesn't work without makeup, and it doesn't work with makeup, the development of things makes Xu Yan very distressed.

"Since it's all the fault of beauty, then it's good for me to make myself ugly!"

Xu Yan, who was distressed, suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a solution.

The next day, Xu Yan deliberately did not cover all the birthmarks on his face, but left an inconspicuous piece.

Those who had seen her before came to the store and saw her face very strangely.

"Shopkeeper, your face ......"

"Huh?" Xu Yan pretended to be experienced and looked at the mirror, and then said, "There's nothing wrong with my face?" ”

"No, what's on your face?" As he spoke, the customer pointed to the birthmark on Xu Yan's face.

"Oh, you said this, I thought you were talking about something, it scared me. This is a birthmark, I have had it since I was a child, and I got up late today and forgot to cover it up with foundation. ”

Xu Yan generously admitted.

After the news of the birthmark on her face spread, it was not as attractive as before, and the previous wild bee and butterfly disappeared in an instant.

As a result, Xu Yan's heart was completely put down, and the little bee around him finally disappeared.

How can a woman not love beauty, Xu Yan is the same, but compared to life, Xu Yan knows how to protect herself, even if she is scolded for being ugly, she doesn't care.

Compared with life, these are so insignificant, no matter how beautiful they are, there is nothing left without life, it is better to live freely.

"Xiao Xiu, Xiao Yun, how are you doing, did the little brothers and sisters next door bully you?"

Xu Yan looked at the children in front of him with a burst of satisfaction in his heart, especially when he saw the smiles on the faces of the two children, Xu Yan was even happier in his heart, sure enough, big places are different from small places.

"Mother, the brothers and sisters next door didn't bully us, they were very good to Xiaoxiu and his sister, and often shared fun with us, you see this is given to me by Huzi."

Yuan Xiu's eyes lit up, this was a treatment he had never had before, and now he not only had good friends, but also received a gift of his own, although he was just a small wooden man, but this was already very precious to Yuan Xiu.

Before they came to Shuixiang Town, they were regarded as monsters because of their hair color and pupil color, and friends and gifts were a kind of luxury, and they couldn't even think about it.

Although his mother told him that they are not monsters, and they are even noble, but there is still no way to understand these for the young Yuan Xiu, except for himself and his sister all day long, there is no friend The loss in the bottom of his heart, others have no way to understand.

But now that everything has been obtained by him, Yuan Xiu is of course very happy, and it is more of a kind of self-confidence.

"Really, that's really good, Xiao Xiu accepted Huzi's little wooden man, so is there a return gift? You must know that as a friend, you can't just accept gifts from others, and you must also be particular about receiving gifts, what you can receive and what you can't receive, these can't be casual. ”

The two children have their own little friends, of course Xu Yan is also happy, she is careful that the children will have a period of restraint due to the environment, so none of this happened.
