Chapter Ninety-Eight: Haunted
Soon, the little guy took the rewarded silver, nodded and retreated.
Senmeikaku is a famous teahouse in Kyoto, and although most people come here to drink tea, there are also some people who eat here.
Xiao Jinyue summoned the little guy and ordered a few side dishes.
"Jinyue, I haven't bought a store yet, how big should I buy, and I don't know how to choose to buy the right one?" As long as the county lord Minghua thinks that there will be a shop that he chooses and takes care of by himself in the future, he can't help but be excited.
"Hey, are the two girls going to buy a store? The little one happened to know that there was a silk shop to pawn and sell. It's not far away, it's on Chengping Street next to it, it's called Chen Ji Silk Shop, you can go over and see if it's suitable. ”
Unexpectedly, someone sent a pillow when he was dozing off, and Lord Minghua said happily, "Really? This is really good, we will go over and see it after dinner, thank you Xiaoer. ”
Xiao Jinyue didn't expect such a coincidence, and thanked the young man who served the food.
The street next to it is not bad, it's not far away anyway, just enough to go and see.
The young man smiled shyly and waved at the two, "It's nothing, it's nothing, the little one doesn't help much, but I just happen to know that the shop is going to be pawned, and you just happen to buy the shop." You go and take a look, buy it if it's suitable, choose another one if it's not suitable, and there's nothing to lose anyway. ”
That's right, buying a shop is not buying vegetables, of course, you have to choose carefully.
After the two of them had lunch in Xianming Pavilion, they didn't take the car, and walked slowly to Chengping Street, just to go shopping and eat by the way.
Xiao Jinyue saw that the county lord of Minghua was excited all the way, and his mouth kept chattering, and he couldn't help it.
This Minghua county lord has been pampered in the palm of his hand by the king of Nan'an and the princess of Nan'an since he was a child, and he has always been worry-free, and his biggest worry every day is what to eat and what to wear.
This is the first time I want to buy a shop to do business, and I can't get excited just thinking about it.
"County Lord, don't you really plan to go home first and discuss it with your father and princess?"
Lord Minghua waved his hand indifferently, "It's okay, just wait until we buy the shop first, and then go back and talk to them." Jinyue, you don't know, my mother has long wanted to take care of a few shops for me, saying that she would let me practice my hands first, so as not to marry in the future, and I won't even take care of my own dowry. ”
Xiao Jinyue couldn't help but be curious, "Then how many shops do you have now?" ”
Lord Minghua waved his hand boringly, "Oh, there is not one." ”
Without waiting for Xiao Jinyue to ask, she continued, "My mother's dowry shop has been open for an unknown number of years, and those shopkeepers and guys are all skilled, and they are responsible for everything."
My mother said that I would take care of the store, but it was just for me to learn to look at the account books, and someone else would do everything, so I didn't need to do it at all.
What's so nice about this ledger, it's boring to think about it, and I'm not interested in taking over those shops. ”
Turning his head and excitedly, he said, "It's not like now, we have to start everything from scratch." There are no shops, no staff, everything is up to us, and I get excited just thinking about it.
If my father and mother knew that I was finally willing to take care of the shop, I don't know how happy I would be. Oh, I just don't know if I have enough money to buy that Chen Ji silk shop..."
The two held hands, watched as they walked, and did not delay chatting.
At this time, a young man who was about fifteen or sixteen years old and carrying a hemp bag next to him said mysteriously, "Two girls, I just heard from you that you are going to buy that Chen Ji silk shop?" ”
Before they could speak, the young man shook his head again and said, "I advise you to give up this idea, that shop cannot be bought." ”
When Lord Minghua heard this, he couldn't help but be anxious, and hurriedly asked, "Why can't you buy it?" Is there something wrong with it? ”
The young man wanted to speak and stopped, but when he saw that the two girls had been staring at him, he turned his head to look around for a while, and saw that passers-by had not paid attention to this side, so he sighed.
"The two girls must rarely visit the shop here, and the haunting of the Chen Ji silk shop, the people around here basically know about it."
"The matter of Chen Ji's silk shop is so troublesome, even the tooth shop doesn't want to take over their shop. After all, knowing that the shop can't be sold, no one wants to do a loss-making business. ”
"The reason why the little one is telling you this is because I don't want to see your money go down the drain. If the two girls don't believe it, they can go and inquire. ”
After saying this, the guy walked away with the hemp bag on his shoulder.
After listening to the young man's words, Lord Minghua said in frustration, "Jinyue, what should I do?" The shop is haunted, or not? Let's go find another store, shall we? ”
Xiao Jinyue turned his head and glanced at the Chen Ji silk shop not far in front, "Since you're here, let's go and have a look first." Even if it was haunted, in broad daylight, presumably the ghost would not dare to come out. ”
Although she encountered such a bizarre thing through the journey, as a modern soul, she really didn't believe that there were ghosts in this world.
Besides, as a doctor in her previous life, she didn't deal with corpses.
Sometimes, the human heart is much more terrifying than the ghost.
Lord Minghua looked up at the bright sun overhead, and saw Xiao Jinyue smiling, without the slightest fear, she couldn't help but calm down.
The two walked to the door of the store, where a man in his fifties with half-white hair was wiping the counter with a cloth.
Everything looks like a normal shop, and there is nothing unusual.
Although he followed, when he arrived at the door, Lord Minghua couldn't help but stop.
Turning his head to look at Xiao Jinyue beside him, he saw that he raised his feet and walked in with a smile, and Lord Minghua hesitated for a moment and followed in.
The old man who was wiping heard the movement and immediately greeted him with a smile.
"Two girls, but you want to buy cloth? What you need, I'll bring it to you, you can choose slowly. ”
The door of the shop is open, the shop is brightly lit, and the tables, chairs, benches and counters are all spotlessly clean.
Neatly arranged silks filled the shelves, and nothing seemed to be out of place. In the big store, except for the two of them, there are no other customers.
Chengping Street is next to Yu Street, which is a relatively lively street. Along the way, they haven't seen any shop like Chen Ji's silk shop, quiet and deserted, except for the shopkeeper, there is not a single customer.
Oh, yes, if there is anything unusual, this Chen Ji silk shop has not even seen any trace of half of the man except for this old man who seems to be the shopkeeper.
Running such a large silk shop, normally speaking, it is impossible to rely on only one shopkeeper to maintain it.
In other stores, no matter how big or small, the shopkeeper's account room is indispensable.
But this is a big Chen Ji silk shop, except for such an old man, I haven't seen a young man for a long time, let alone a guest.
Seeing that Xiao Jinyue and Lord Minghua didn't speak for a long time, just quietly looking at the shop, the old man couldn't help but wrinkle his eyebrows and said, "Two girls..."
