"Then let's have a pot of honeysuckle tea, pastries, gold and silver two-color cakes, jade white jade cakes, and a hawthorn cake." Hua Manxi said with a smile.

"Okay, guest wait." The little two smiled and went down.

As soon as the person left, Wang Shishi couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Why do you still drink tea, don't you want to buy a shop?" ”

"What's the hurry? It's still early, drink tea, eat pastries, isn't it? Hua Manxi glanced at her, "When you see the shop, you want to buy it, how do you know that there are no traps in it?" ”

Chen Xiuli also nodded and agreed: "Manxi is right, Kyoto is not as good as Shishan, it is better to be careful in everything, the shops on this street are very prosperous, and they are basically hard to find, and there are few transfers." ”

"Ouch, don't you see the door of this shop? No one eats, where is there any money to be made! Wang Shishi didn't think about it so much, "Besides, doing business is the same as gambling money, you have to take risks, you two are timid, what kind of business are you doing!" ”

"Ouch, you're really, you've made some money over the years, and you still have to get up, you can't say two words, think about it yourself, Shishan's food street, if it weren't for the full stream, would you be able to make so much money? And that resort is the same, and it's the same for selling tomato sauce. Chen Xiuli frowned slightly and said.

"Manxi, Manxi, Manxi is your sister-in-law, I'm not!" Wang Shishi was unconvinced, glared at Chen Xiuli fiercely, and dragged Hua Manxi away, and the two looked intimate, "So what?" Manxi is the God of Wealth sent to me by God, what can you do with me? ”

Hua Manxi smiled helplessly, and was about to persuade them, but suddenly heard a whoosh, and a cold arrow passed through the window and shot directly at a carved pillar in front of her, passing by her hair.

"What's going on! How could anyone put a cold arrow! Wang Shishi was the first to react, grabbed Hua Manxi's hand, and looked at her from head to toe, "Are you okay?" Are there any injuries? ”

Xiao Er happened to come up with refreshments, and when he saw this scene, he was so frightened that all the things in his hands were turned over, and he screamed: "Shopkeeper!" Let go of the cold arrow! Let go of the cold arrow! ”

When the shopkeeper heard the news, he saw the cold arrow inserted in the pillar, and was silent for a while, but finally raised his head, his face full of tears.

"What's going on?" Hua Manxi saw that he wanted to speak and stopped, and asked with compassion.

"Hey, let's go, our shop is closing, and we can't welcome customers anymore." The shopkeeper wiped the tears from his face and said in a hoarse voice.

Chen Xiuli and Hua Manxi glanced at each other, and finally Chen Xiuli said loudly: "Shopkeeper, to tell the truth, we came today to want to get off this shop, I don't know what price the shopkeeper wants?" ”

When the shopkeeper heard that he was going to buy a shop, he was so excited that he almost knelt down, and said with tears in his eyes: "Do you really dare to buy my shop?" Not afraid of offending the Patriotic Mansion? ”

Patriotic Mansion? Hua Manxi's eyebrows jumped, and he frowned: "What does it have to do with the Weiguo Mansion when we buy a shop?" ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, his face fell again, and he cursed: "Sure enough, you don't know, just go, go downstairs and get some snacks and go back, I should make amends for you." My shop is going to close, and I won't be able to sell dim sum anymore. ”

From the shopkeeper's words, Hua Manxi heard two points, one is that the shopkeeper has a lot of feelings for this shop, and the other is that he is not willing to close the shop.

"Shopkeeper, since we have the heart to buy the shop, we are not afraid of the twists and turns in it, you can offer the price." Wang Shishi is confident.

The shopkeeper glanced at them, although they were well dressed, but when they got up with those people in Kyoto who wore gold and silver, they must not be a powerful family, and besides, they came from other places, even if they sold this shop to them, they also caused trouble for them.

"Hey, forget it, you don't know the truth, I won't harm you, you are from other places, you don't know the depth of the water in Kyoto, this shop is not that I refuse to sell it to you, I'm afraid of affecting you." The shopkeeper wiped away a handful of tears and mourned.

"Shopkeeper, your shop is very elegantly decorated, and the upstairs is full of private rooms, if you take over, you can basically do business immediately, and you don't have to bother decorating, so I like it very much, I really like this shop, you can transfer it to me." Wang Shishi persuaded.

"Hey, you have also seen, my shop is just a few customers, and someone will release cold arrows, if you take down this shop, those people don't know how to deal with you! You're all young people, don't lose your life to make money! The shopkeeper's expression was sad, "If it weren't for these bad things, how would I have thought of changing the shop, I have been operating this shop for decades, and there are many customers who love to eat our shop's dim sum——"

Hua Manxi listened, looked at the cold arrow on the pillar, and asked, "Shopkeeper, what happened to you?" Tell us a little bit about it. ”

Seeing that they didn't buy like before, the shopkeeper either turned around and left, or took the opportunity to lower the price, and he also had some hope in his heart, and sighed: "That's the case, my name is Li Hui, and I am known as Cake Li." My hometown is in the south, we are rich in special pastries and pastries, I left my hometown more than ten years ago, dragged my family to come here, saw that there are no pastries to sell here, my mind moved, so I set up a stall to sell pastries. The sweets I made were soft and fragrant, and they quickly gained a foothold in Kyoto. Later, after making some money, I rented a shop, and then it got bigger and bigger, and I bought the shop myself. I have a son and a daughter under my knees, the son is studying in a famous academy in Kyoto, and the daughter helps at home, and the family is also considered to be harmonious and beautiful, but a few days ago, the two girls from the Weiguo Mansion came here to order pastries, saying that they were used for a tea party, and let the little girl send them over. The little girl looks elegant, quite a bit of a posture, the boy brother took a fancy to it, often came here to entangle, and wanted the little girl to be a concubine for him, although we are not a powerful family, but there is no reason to rush to the door to be a concubine! Besides, the little girl has already been married, and it is the Sun family who sells candied fruits in the east of the city. For this matter, the son's brother went to the Sun family to find trouble with Young Master Sun and broke one of his legs. I thought that this would force the little girl to marry him, but who knew that the little girl was also a strong personality, so she immediately packed up her burden and went to Sun's house to take care of Young Master Sun. These days, there is not a single customer, I want to resell the shop and take my wife and children home, but those who come to buy the shop are either afraid of offending the Lin family, or they want to take the opportunity to lower the price, so the shop is not sold now. ”

After the shopkeeper said that, tears welled up in his eyes again, and he sighed: "This shop is brick by brick, flower and grass, table and chair are all made by me with my heart, if not, how can I be willing to sell it?" ”

Wang Shishi and Hua Manxi listened, and a touch of surprise flashed on their faces: "Since he dares to break someone's leg, doesn't the government care?" ”

"How? The one who did it was the subordinate, that is, to sue him, but it was just to let a subordinate person take the blame, and they retaliated when they turned around, which was even more ruthless. Lao Li Tou shook his head, very sad.

"Shopkeeper, how much silver are you going to sell this shop?" Hua Manxi suddenly asked.

The shopkeeper didn't expect that after they heard his words, they still had the intention of buying, and he glanced at the man who followed them, and saw that he was dressed in blue brocade clothes, quiet and calm, but with an outstanding temperament, he must also be a big family.

"Most of the shops around here start with 80,000 taels of silver, I suffered such a thing, as long as 60,000 taels of silver, it is already a loss to vomit blood, but those who are in the forefront, they actually want to push the price to 20,000 taels, and some even give 10,000 taels!" That old Li Tou was so angry, "The so-called falling into the well is nothing more than that." ”

"Shopkeeper, you still have a house in Kyoto, right? You just sold the shop, don't you have to sell the house? After so many years, how can you take it away at once? Hua Manxi asked again.

"I have a house in Kyoto, but the house is rented out, and I don't live in it, if the shop is sold, I plan to sell the house to the tenant, if they don't buy it, we will sign a long-term lease and collect a rent, so that after a few years, if we want to go back to Kyoto, we will have a place to stay." The old man Li said sincerely.

"That's it, we still count you 80,000 taels in this shop, but we only give you 50,000 taels of cash, and the remaining 30,000 taels, we can be when you are a shareholder of our business, don't hide it from you, after we take over, we still sell tea and snacks, and after making a profit, we still record you every month, you don't have to panic, don't leave Kyoto first, if you want, you can go to my shop first to help me be a shopkeeper, that Lin Gongzi, I will deal with it." Wang Shishi thought about it for a moment and said.

"Shishi-" When Chen Xiuli heard her say this, he knew that she had the heart to take this matter, and hurriedly shouted, and set his eyes on Hua Manxi, wanting her to persuade Wang Shishi.

Who knew that Hua Manxi, who had always been steady, also nodded and said, "Yes, I also have such thoughts." ”

Chen Xiuli: "........"

"Shishi, it's a big matter, that's the Patriotic Mansion, this is Kyoto, not in Stone Mountain, what do you take to settle it?" Chen Xiuli disagreed and reprimanded lightly.

Wang Shishi raised a smirk, and said without fear: "What are you afraid of!" I can have fun in Chen Shangshu Mansion, and the same is true for Guogong Mansion, what can be difficult to defeat me Wang Shishi! Besides, Shen Shao still owes me a life-saving kindness, and it's time to find him. ”
