Chapter 10: Empty-handed

After Xia Yuan left, Fang Shuyi was afraid that her daughter would not have enough money to open a shop, so she asked Qiu Yue to take 5,000 taels from her private account and give it to her daughter.

Xia Wan knew what her mother meant, and she didn't shirk it, and then she gave her mother the money when the store opened. The mother and daughter said something to themselves again......

Lu Fu.

Descending Xiao knelt on the ground, clasping his hands into fists, "Master, I found two women who raised red foxes, one is the daughter of the city lord's family, and the other is the daughter of Fang Yuan's family. Neither of them went out of the house yesterday evening, and the daughter of the city lord's family wore a pink robe yesterday, while the daughter of Fang Yuan's family wore a light yellow dress, which did not match what you described. ”

There was silence, and she raised her eyes to look at her son-in-law who was contemplating.

At this moment, Lu Jingzhi was thinking back to what the master and servant said yesterday, and vaguely remembered that the master and servant were planning to buy the shop in Zhenxi, since they couldn't find it, then wait for the other party to take the initiative to send it to the door.

Lu Jingzhi got up suddenly, knocked his leg with the fan in his hand, and looked at the still kneeling to the night, "Get up, you go and help Ben Gongzi do something now." Then he whispered in his ear.

I don't understand what Childe is doing when he buys so many shops in Lingfeng Town, and they won't be here for long, even if they open a store, they won't be so much! Although he wondered why his master did this, he didn't ask and went to do something.

The speed of the night service is very fast, and near noon, I spent 40,000 taels to buy 20 shops, all of which are close to the downtown area, and I brought back the title deeds.

Lu Jingzhi looked at the pile of land deeds in his hand and smiled evilly, and waited for the fish to come to the door by himself.

Fang Mansion.

When Xia Yan returned home from school and learned that he was going to take his sister to see the shop, he happily called Fu Bo to take a carriage to the west of the town.

Along the way, Xia Yan was chattering non-stop.

"Sister, sister, why did you suddenly remember to open a store?"

"Sister, sister, do you have enough money, my brother still has some money to wait for Xia Zhu to bring it to you."

Xia Zhu is Xia Yu's own brother, and the two are the sons of the Fang Mansion, and they are more reliable than the maids and guards they bought.

"Sister, sister, isn't it a little out of the way in the west of the town, why don't you let your father use the family's shop to open a store. It's both in the downtown area and close to home. ”

"Sister, sister, what shop are you going to open?"

"Sister, I heard my father say that you have more than one store, what kind of shops are you going to open~ See if my brother can help?"

"Sister, sister, when are you going to open? When the time comes, the elder brother will let his brother's friends and classmates visit it. ”

……

Xia Wan patiently answered her second brother's various questions along the way.

The group finally arrived in the west of the town, Xia Yan got out of the car first, and then reached out to help his sister down.

"Sister, look at which shop brother you fancy to buy for you~" Xia Yan waved his hand, very bold.

Although Xia Yan likes to play, he is not a person who likes to splurge indiscriminately. There will be some silver money left over every month, as well as every holiday given by my grandmother's father and mother, and some earned with friends, and there are a lot of all kinds of money, and there is still money to buy a shop for my sister.

"Okay! Brother. Xia Wan replied to her brother with a sweet smile, the store that her brother bought for her brother should be invested by her brother, anyway, in the end, it was her brother's money, and she would definitely not let her brother lose money.

Xia Wan took a fancy to the second store in the west of the town, the store was bright, and the space inside was quite large, because it was selling some grains, and the business was a bit bleak, selling these things in a place with less traffic would only have more people coming if the price was lower than that in the east of the town, and it was obvious that no matter how low it was, it would be a loss. Xia Wan saw that the shopkeeper was packing up again, and it seemed that the store was about to close, although there were fewer people on the street in the afternoon, the store should not be ready to close the shop now!

Xia Wan was a little puzzled when she saw that the store had already begun to move the grains placed outside to the shelves, and she came forward to inquire only to find out that the store had been sold, and she was a little regretful. This store has a large space, which is just right for the spice store she wants to open, but the store has already been sold, so she has to give up.

Walking to the back, she took a fancy to a shop, this shop is mainly selling medicinal materials, the store displays all kinds of Chinese herbs and medicinal materials, and there is a small courtyard behind her that can fry herbs, which is just in line with her idea of opening a dessert shop, and the small courtyard in the back is just used to bake desserts. The strange thing is that the shopkeeper is also starting to clean up the things in the yard, and after asking, he learned that the store has been sold, and Xia Wan regrets it again.

I asked a few stores in a row, but they were already sold, which made everyone wonder.

It's normal to sell three or four, but you can't sell all seven or eight in a row, and they all just sold this morning, so it's not normal. Xia Wan couldn't help but think that she hadn't offended anyone recently, and it wouldn't have been sent by her father to buy it, and who could buy so many shops in one go? What do you do when you buy so many shops?

Then I thought that what I said to Xia Yu last night could it be that someone listened to it? But there's no one else around, huh?

Suddenly, Xia Wan thought that it could be the man who was tied to the tree yesterday, and he must have heard what she and Xia Yu said when he appeared behind them quietly, but what did he do with so many shops? You can't open all the stores, can you?

In the end, Xia Wan and Xia Yan simply stood in place and sent the guards down to ask if the other shops were all sold.

After a while, the guard came back, knelt down and saluted, "Second Prince and Miss Qiyu, the latter ones were also sold this morning, and according to their description, they should have been bought by the same person." ”

"Huh? Is the water retrograde today? Why are they all sold? They were all sold in the morning. Xia Yan scratched his head.

Since the next ones have been bought, there is no need to look any further, even if there is still a location, it is already very biased, as long as the front store is not operated, it is difficult to drain the back store, the only way at the moment is to ask who bought it, to see if he is willing to sell some.

"Brother, let's go back, let's not buy it today." Then he turned to Fu Bo and said, "Fu Bo Lao asks you to inquire who bought these shops, and by the way, ask him if he is willing to sell a few shops." ”

"Hey~ Okay miss, the old slave is going to investigate." Fauber leaned over to inquire who had bought most of the shop on the street.

"Brother, let's go back, go back to the house and wait for news from Fu Bo," Xia Wan turned to Xia Yan and said.

"Okay, let's go, I can only go home and wait for news."

Xia Yan helped his sister into the carriage before going up by himself.

The group went home......
