Mu Qingwan walked to the lobby unimpeded, shouted Hu Zhao and walked out of the teahouse.

It's still very early, why don't you go to the grain store to have a look, I stayed in the academy these days, and I didn't come out to see the shop, and I don't know what the situation is now. Thinking of the news that Steward Wang sent to the academy, Mu Qingwan decided to go to the grain store to have a look, so she took Hu Zhao straight to the grain store.

The central area of Taiyuan County is inexpensive, because of the relationship between Qingyun Academy, there are many people coming and going, and there are many business opportunities, most of the local shops are time-honored shops, and the business is running well, so basically you can't buy any very good shops.

Steward Wang inquired in many ways, and finally found a small shop, this small shop is only two grandchildren, by selling dim sum for a living, the craftsmanship is not bad, but unfortunately the store is small, and the money earned is not enough to pay the protection fee.

There will always be some small gangsters, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, and the big stores dare not reach out, but this kind of small shop, without background and strength, is definitely sideways. However, the gangsters are also afraid of being pushed too hard, and they will have no money to collect in the future, so they will collect money and leave every time.

Originally, the store business still had repeat customers, and the grandparents and grandchildren could barely make a living by selling dim sum, but in the past six months, the old man was sick and couldn't make pastries to sell.

Steward Wang agreed to deal with the affairs of the gangsters, but the old man had worked in the shop all his life, and he had relied on this craft for a living all his life. Steward Wang promised the old man that although the shop was sold, he and his grandson could continue to stay in the shop to help in the future, and there would be a salary payment, so he finally bought the shop.

The shop has already begun to be renovated, the rice fields have just been planted, there is no grain to buy and sell, and other businesses are not ready, so the grain shop is not in a hurry to start business.

Although the store is small, but the location is at the crossroads, if it is operated well in the future, it can still make money, although I don't know how it was before the renovation, but now it seems that the façade has been cleaned up, which Mu Qingwan is still more satisfied.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw that the store was deserted, but this can be accepted for the time being. The store is about 20 square meters, about 5 meters long and 4 meters wide, with a street layout, and a side door on the innermost side, which should be a backyard behind the side door, and the kitchen and living place should be in the backyard. As can be seen from the layout of the store, the store should be renovated from a house, and if the backyard can also be bought together, then the space will be much larger. Mu Qingwan thought about it, and she could discuss it with the owner later to see if she could buy the backyard together.

"This young lady, the store hasn't opened yet, so let's go to another store first."

As soon as Mu Qingwan entered the door, a five-year-old boy walked over, scratching his head, blushing, and talking to Mu Qingwan shyly.

"It's okay, I'll take a look first." It seems that this child should be the grandson of the old man.

"Oh, okay then." The little boy nodded, and then suddenly ran away, shouting loudly as he ran, "Grandpa, Grandpa Wang, someone is coming." ”

“……”

"Miss, why are you here?" As soon as Steward Wang came out, he was also very surprised to see Mu Qingwan, and there was an old man with crutches and a hobbling walk.

"I'm stopping by to take a look, how is it now?"

"I'm going to find someone to decorate, and now I'm going to redecorate it according to the previous pattern, I don't know if Miss has any good ideas?"

"Sit down first, who is this?" Mu Qingwan looked at the old man.

"Oh, look at me, forgot to introduce. This is the old owner of the previous shop, and this is my young lady, the master behind the store. Steward Wang introduced the two of them.

"This ......" The old man was a little surprised, could such a young girl open a grain shop?

"Elder Zhang doesn't need to be surprised, although Qingwan is young, she has been learning business with the elders in the family for some years." Seeing the old man's thoughts, Mu Qingwan explained.

"Uncle, I want to buy the backyard together, I don't know what you think?" Mu Qingwan asked tentatively.

"Hey, it's not that I don't want to sell, it's just that every inch of land here in Taiyuan is expensive, if the house is also sold, where will our grandparents and grandchildren go?" The old man looked sad.

"This is easy to do, I have a Zhuangzi in Shu County, if you think you can, you can live in the Zhuangzi, or I can build you a new house nearby. And your grandson, who is also young now, can pay for his education, and if he is able, he can also get a reputation in the future. What do you think? ”

"This ......" Mu Qingwan's conditions are very tempting, after all, it is not easy to be able to study at this age, the old man still can't believe it, can this girl call the shots? His gaze turned to Steward Wang.

"Old Zhang, what are you hesitating about? Don't worry, Miss will do what she says and won't treat you badly. Steward Wang helped beside him, but the teacher was still a little hesitant.

"Bang." The door to the shop was slammed open, and two angry men entered.

"Old man Zhang, collect the protection fee, hurry up and pay the money." One of the thugs had a wooden stick the size of a baby's arm in his hand and banged on the door, searching the house for the figure of the old man.

"Grandpa, I'm afraid." Zhang Lao's grandson timidly hid behind Zhang Lao.

"Yo, is there anyone else? Old man Zhang, you have found a backer, and tell you, it's useless. You have to pay today, or you will tear down your shop. The thug arrogantly pointed at the old man's nose.

"Hu Zhao." Mu Qingwan motioned for Hu Zhao to move.

Hu Zhao stepped forward and snatched the man's stick with a skillful hand, and then suppressed the man with a grappler. Seeing this, another gangster rushed forward to help, but was kicked away by Hu Zhao, and Steward Wang found a rope to tie the two together.

"Send it off." Mu Qingwan said lightly.

"What! You little girl, how dare you do this, when Lao Tzu comes out, I will never spare you. As soon as they heard that they were going to be sent to the government, the two thugs were also panicked, and pretended to shout strongly.

It was so noisy that Steward Wang found two more rags and stuffed them into the mouths of the two thugs.

"Woo woo...... "It's useless to see intimidation, the two gangsters are really scared, but what's the use? I knew why I had to do it in the first place!

Steward Wang has quietly checked, this person is an idle gangster, and there is no force behind him, but he sees Zhang Lao's family, old and small, and evil is born from the guts, so there is no need to worry about any trouble afterwards.

"This young lady, I agreed, and the backyard will be sold to you as well, hey." After what happened just now, seeing that Mu Qingwan easily solved a lot of troubles that had plagued him, Old Man Zhang agreed to Mu Qingwan's proposal.

The follow-up matter is relatively simple, Steward Wang sent the two gangsters to the government, as long as they pay a little money, it will be difficult for these two gangsters to come out again in the future. Then, Mu Qingwan signed with Mr. Zhang's family and bought the backyard. After getting the title deed, Mu Qingwan asked Steward Wang to arrange to send Zhang Lao's family to Shu County, and everything went smoothly.
