East Street. Meng Yuxuan stood at the door of Lin Cai's tofu shop, looking around to observe the nearby terrain and environment.

This tofu shop is flanked by butcher shops and noodle shops on the left and right sides, and business is not doing well. There are rouge shops, garment shops, and blacksmith shops nearby.

The house here is quite old, and it looks like it's been some years old. The main reason is that there are no customers here, almost everyone goes to West Street, and few people come to East Street.

The buildings on West Street are relatively new, and there are the most luxurious restaurants, the most lively green houses, and the cheapest butcher shops. If people want to buy anything, they only need to go to West Street and walk around, and they can usually make it up. Over time, people don't like to go to East Street even more. East Street is far from the city gate, and it is very inconvenient to take a trip.

But Meng Yuxuan looked at all the shops on West Street, and those that were resold were not to her liking. West Street was too crowded, which made it impossible for her to run her shop properly. East Street is different. There are many shops to choose from, and there is a lot of room to play, and the price is much cheaper than that of West Street.

"What do you see? Do you want to buy something? The proprietress of the butcher shop glared at Meng Yuxuan and said.

Meng Yuxuan took a look, wasn't this the boss lady who scolded her last time? It's really a narrow road. It seems that this tofu shop that is going to be resold cannot be bought. There is such a person next door, does she still need to do business?

Meng Yuxuan was about to leave, and the proprietress in the tofu shop came out. When she saw Meng Yuxuan, she hurriedly said, "Girl, do you want to buy a shop?" ”

The proprietress looked young, but her eyes were black, her face was haggard, and she looked as if she had been troubled by something for a long time, and she had not slept for a long time.

Meng Yuxuan hesitated. The proprietress next door was still staring at her, which was really unbearable. She didn't want to live all day fighting with this kind of person. But the proprietress looked as if she was in dire need of money, and her eyes were pleading with her, as if to say, 'Help me.' And she was very satisfied with the size of the tofu shop.

"I do want to buy a storefront, but I don't like the hostess next door. So, sorry, I'll have to find a new place. Meng Yuxuan said embarrassedly.

"Don't go." The proprietress of the tofu shop took Meng Yuxuan's hand and said eagerly: "Girl, please buy my shop, I really need silver." ”

"But ......" Meng Yuxuan glanced at the tofu shop, then at the butcher shop next door, thought for a while and said, "If you can convince the butcher shop next door to sell it to me together, I will buy your shop." If it doesn't work, I can't buy it. I can't hurt myself to help you. ”

"That's fine. In fact, Aunt Yang next door has long complained that there is no business, so it is better to sell the shop and go back to the countryside to farm. It's just that their butcher shop is too shabby, and no one has been willing to buy it. The proprietress of the tofu shop said, "I'll go and tell Aunt Yang to see if she is willing to sell it." If she wants, the girl can't afford to lose her word. ”

"It's nature. I was going to buy a store, as long as the price is right, who is not the same? Meng Yuxuan nodded.

"Then the girl come in and sit down! I'm going to ask Aunt Yang now. With that, the proprietress of the tofu shop walked to the butcher shop next door.

Meng Yuxuan didn't want to pay attention to the sharp gaze of the proprietress next door and walked into the tofu shop. The tofu shop is full of tools for making tofu. It's pretty clean. It can be seen that the owner is a diligent person. It's just that I don't have a business, and I don't know how long I haven't made tofu.

Meng Yuxuan thought that even if she bought this store, she could keep these tools. She can also make tofu and sell it. The original owner has no business, she has space and water, and there will definitely be a business.

"Aunt Yang, this girl is willing to buy our shop. You give me a price, let's sell it together! Anyway, there's no business, don't you think that's the reason? ”

The butcher shop proprietress looked at Meng Yuxuan with critical eyes, her eyes full of mean calculations. She said: "It's not impossible to buy my shop. The price is one hundred taels, and nothing is sold for less. ”

Meng Yuxuan chuckled and shook her head gently. She stood up and said to the proprietress of the tofu shop, "I'm sorry, this sister-in-law, it seems that this place is not suitable for me. ”

"Don't go! Girl. "The proprietress of the tofu shop is in a hurry. She pulled the butcher shop proprietress and said, "Aunt Yang, you give a real price!" Your shop is so old, small and dilapidated, where is it worth a hundred taels? It stands to reason that fifty taels is good. ”

The butcher shopkeeper glared at the tofu shop proprietress and said fiercely with an old face full of meat: "The old lady said that it is worth it." The old lady is not in a hurry to sell, and I have the final say on how much it costs. ”

"You! You ...... this," the proprietress of the tofu shop cried urgently. She wiped her tears and said, "Something happened to my husband, and I urgently need silver." Do well, and do not be embarrassed by me. Aunt Yang, have you forgotten? Three years ago, you were seriously ill, but my husband helped you find a doctor, and my family borrowed ten taels of silver to treat you. Have you forgotten all this? ”

The butcher's old face was slightly stiff. She frowned and said impatiently, "Okay! I'll just tell you the real price. Sixty taels. If it's less than sixty taels, I won't sell it. ”

Meng Yuxuan looked at the butcher shopkeeper, her eyes full of anger. The proprietress of the tofu shop is not wrong, her shop can sell fifty taels, it is good. But she actually asked for sixty taels. This is a blatant robbery while the fire is burning. Seeing her expression just now, I thought she was a shrew with a conscience. Now it seems that she is still overestimated.

"This ......" The proprietress of the tofu shop looked at Meng Yuxuan and said pleadingly: "Girl, how much are you willing to give?" ”

"How much does your store sell?" Meng Yuxuan sighed helplessly. "I see that your shop is bigger than hers, and it is neatly kept, and newer than hers."

"Eighty taels! Is it done? The proprietress of the tofu shop said hurriedly.

The butcher lady thought proudly in her heart: What a stupid. Her shop is the size of two of my shop, and it only sells for eighty taels.

Meng Yuxuan has already finished reading the entire tofu shop. The front is paved, and there is housing in the back. Not only that, but their yard is quite large. If you buy a tofu shop and a butcher shop, and then renovate it, it will definitely become the sign of East Street. If it weren't for the fact that I didn't have too much money in my hand, I really wanted to buy a few shops next door.

"Okay then! Sixty taels of hers and eighty taels of yours, I bought them together. "The butcher shop is only worth more than 40 taels, but the tofu shop is worth 100 taels. bought these two shops at the same time, in fact, she did not suffer a loss. The real loss is the proprietress of the tofu shop. "Keep the stuff you used to make tofu, too! Is there a problem with this? ”

"No problem. I took my husband to Licheng, and I couldn't take those things with me. The proprietress of the tofu shop hurriedly said, "Thank you, girl." Thank you so much. ”

"What's wrong with your husband? Look, you're in a hurry to sell your shop, and you're losing money. Meng Yuxuan asked casually.

"He was seriously ill. I heard that there is a miracle doctor in Li Cheng, and I want to take him to try my luck. The proprietress of the tofu shop said sadly: "Girl, let's go to the yamen to write documents now!" As long as you rewrite the paperwork and the deed, these two shops will be yours in the future. ”

"Yes. I gave my money first. I'll move back to the countryside tomorrow. The butcher smiled flatteringly.

"Let's go to the yamen together to write documents, and after writing them, we will give them directly to you in front of the officials." Meng Yuxuan said impatiently.

"It's stingy." The butcher snorted coldly.

An hour later, several people came out of the yamen. At this time, they had already transferred their accounts, and the butcher shop and tofu shop were both properties under Meng Yuxuan's name. And Meng Yuxuan also spent more than a hundred taels of silver.

Meng Yuxuan threw the two sheets into the space. Now she's starting to think about how she can use the two stores. The house is so old that it has to be renovated inside and out. According to her thoughts, I'm afraid that this matter can't be completed without a hundred taels. Add to that the hiring of people, the purchase of new furniture, and the hiring of a carriage to move the house, all of which require silver.

"Thank you, girl. I will take my husband to Licheng tomorrow. The shop will be yours in the future. The proprietress of the tofu shop said gratefully, "My name is Lin Cai." ”

"Sister-in-law Lin." Meng Yuxuan nodded and said, "My name is Meng Yuxuan." One thing I've always wanted to say is that I'm married, not a girl. ”

"Huh? You...... I really can't see it. You're so young and so beautiful. Lin Cai said in surprise.

"Humph!" The butcher shopkeeper saw that the two were chatting happily, and pushed her aside, and her face became gloomy. She threw her head back and strode away.

Meng Yuxuan saw the woman walking away, took out twenty taels of silver from her sleeve and handed it to Lin Cai.

Lin Cai hurriedly waved his hand, puzzled: "Girl, no, what is Madam doing?" ”

"Sister-in-law, take it! Your shop is worth the price. Meng Yuxuan said. Your husband's illness still needs silver. Twenty taels may not seem like much, but it is enough for you to hire a car to go to Licheng. If you don't dislike too little money, take it! ”

"Sister-in-law's kindness, sister-in-law really doesn't know what to say. My husband's illness is getting worse and worse, and if I can't sell it today, I'll have to take him to Licheng tomorrow. It's just that we don't have any money in our hands, and I don't know if the divine doctor will help us heal. Well, now, I'm glad I met a girl. Lin Cai said movingly.

"What's your husband's illness? Seeing you so haggard, I'm afraid it's not a matter of a day or two. Meng Yuxuan asked suspiciously.

"It's strange to say. Half a month ago, it was fine, but suddenly one day it was uncomfortable. Then the belly got bigger and bigger, and now it's like a pregnant woman. When it came to her husband's condition, Lin Cai was full of sadness.

"Such a strange condition." Meng Yuxuan was surprised. "I hope you can find the miracle doctor. Otherwise, with such a strange condition, ordinary doctors are afraid that they will not be able to do anything. ”

"Woo, sister, sister-in-law's life is really bitter." Lin Cai cried and said.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry. Everything will be fine. Meng Yuxuan patted Lin Cai's shoulder. The two walked as they talked, and walked to the vicinity of the tofu shop. Suddenly, I heard a quarrel in front of me.
