Ivan really couldn't refuse Fang Yizhi's kindness.

In Jinling, he was almost blinded, and he didn't know where to find Fang Yazi, that is, the real estate agent in later generations.

The same is true for Dong Xiaowan, she is actually not familiar with Jinling.

In this way, with Fang Yizhi, who is clear to Jinling Menqing, leading the way, this matter will naturally be much easier.

"Let's go, let's see. ”

"Then let's go, that place is not far from here, next to Laiyan Bridge, it used to be a restaurant, but now it can't be opened. ”

Ivan immediately chuckled.

Opened a restaurant?

It can't be a big restaurant, right?

He may not be able to afford it!

According to his thoughts, this place really doesn't need to be too big, it is enough for Dong Xiaowan and others to live.

Although he nominally wants to open a restaurant, at the beginning, all he could sell was steamed buns and dumplings, and as for stir-fried vegetables or something, he and Dong Xiaowan didn't have any good dishes.

But no matter what, we have to take a look first.

But walking on the road, Fang Yizhi asked him the most curious question: "Young Master Yi, which countries have you been to when you go to the West?"

This was a real problem for Ivan.

He can't just say Britain, Germany, France, Italy, and the like in one breath, right?

He remembered that medieval Europe was a bit complicated, and that countries were not as divided as they were in later generations.

Fortunately, he also played the game of the Great Voyage, and he still vaguely remembers some of them.

"I've been to a lot of places, like Spain, Portugal, England, the Netherlands and so on. ”

He remembered that these countries were all famous colonial and religious countries in the Age of Discovery.

Of course, in order to bluff people, he said these country names in English, and as a former waiter in a five-star hotel, his spoken English was so-so.

"Wow, I've been to Europa?

Fang Yizhi was overexcited.

Ivan: "......"

Damn, it seems to be a bit overdone.

What's the problem?

As everyone knows, in the Ming Dynasty, the West mainly refers to Southeast Asia west of Brunei and the coastal areas of India, even Zheng He, who went to the West seven times, only went to the Red Sea in East Africa at the farthest.

And now that he has said the names of so many European countries in one breath, how can he not overjoyed Fang Yizhi, who is very interested in European culture?

Fang Yizhi grabbed Ivan's hand again, and said eagerly: "Brother Ivan, the journey from Daming to Europa is long, how did you get there?"

Because he was so urgent, he even called Ivan, who was obviously a few years younger than him, by the name of his brother.

Alas, lying is really not an easy task.

If you want to round one lie, you have to use ten lies to round it.

As a last resort, Ivan had no choice but to continue compiling.

"I first went to the South Seas, and then I happened to meet a cargo ship back to Spain, which took more than a year to arrive in Europa, and then traveled around the countries of Europa, and only recently found an opportunity to return to Daming. ”

Well, as soon as he said this, not only Fang Yizhi's interest was even stronger, but several other people were immediately attracted to the topic.

"Yi Gongzi, I heard that the sea is extremely dangerous, the waves are higher than houses, and the fish are bigger than boats, is this true?"

"Brother Ivan, Europa's words are so awkward, how did you learn it?"

"Yi Gongzi, I heard that the people in Europa have big noses, blue eyes, and yellow hair, is that true?"

"Brother Ivan, have you brought back any strange treasures from Europa, have you ever dated a blonde and blue-eyed Western woman?"

......

Ivan was a little overwhelmed.

He had no choice but to use a delaying tactic: "Everyone, why don't you wait until I find a place to settle Miss Dong, and then I will find time to talk to you for three days and three nights?"

There is no way, even if it is a fool, he has to do some homework, otherwise it will be easy to be exposed.

"Okay, let's go find the house first, I've got this to do!"

Fang Yizhi began to take care of everything.

Judging from this stance, he is planning to entangle Ivan.

Alas, it seems that the trouble is up.

Ivan sighed secretly.

Fortunately, with his promise, Fang Yizhi finally let him go for the time being.

The group soon arrived at their destination.

The place Fang Yizhi said is a restaurant called Wangyue Tower, but it is now closed, as for the specific location, it is about 200 meters down the Wende Bridge.

The location is really nice.

Ivan checked back and forth, this is a small two-story building with a yard, the building is not big, it covers an area of about 200 square meters, and then the courtyard is about 200 square meters.

Like most of the buildings along the Qinhuai River, the building stands on the edge of the Qinhuai River and has a small dock for getting on and off the boat.

In the courtyard, there is a row of shops on the side of the street, which can be used for living or selling on the street.

Ivan is very happy with the place.

In his opinion, this place is not big or small, if it is small, it can sell steamed buns, and if it is big, it can be used to open a boutique restaurant, although the scale is not very large, but it is definitely suitable for him and Dong Xiaowan.

He never thought that he would open a restaurant into the kind of food stall that relies on the flow of people.

In this way, this is the right place.

He immediately asked for the price.

"Five hundred taels of silver a year, to be paid in one lump sum. ”

The answer was a middle-aged fat man who claimed to be the owner of the place.

Ivan gasped.

At such a price, if it is doubled tenfold, it is completely possible to buy here.

Also, five hundred taels of silver, plus Dong Xiaowan's debt of one thousand five hundred taels, didn't it make his task more difficult?

He hesitated.

In his opinion, if it is just to complete the task of saving the celebrity chef, it is okay not to use such a good place, no matter how small it is, anyway, he only plans to sell steamed buns and dumplings in the early stage.

"How about this place, isn't it? If you and Miss Dong open the restaurant, then we can come here often in the future." ”

Fang Yizhi asked a little expectantly.

Obviously, he really has his eye on Ivan.

Not only that, Dong Xiaowan, who is both talented and artistic, is also very attractive to them as scholars, if you come here for dinner, you can not only taste delicious food, but also talk about poetry and painting with talented women, which is definitely a beautiful thing.

But the problem is that Ivan doesn't want this!

He's just here to do tasks, not to make friends and have fun, and he doesn't want too many people to socialize with him all the time.

This made him even more hesitant.

Fang Yizhi immediately added: "Brother Yi, don't worry, as long as you can see this place, I will help you with other troubles." ”

Ivan: "......"

I guess the biggest trouble in the future will be you!

He hesitated, and the other spoke.

"Yi Gongzi, is it not enough silver taels? If it is really not enough, we can help Miss Dong think of a way together. ”

Ivan: "......"

Damn, this guy is quietly eyeing again!
