Chapter 246: Shop
Xie Yixiao led people out in a carriage, and after turning around the street, he stopped at a street market.
This place is called Xiangxiang Street, and most of the people in this market are selling things from their daughters, and the storefronts are large and small, some have wide storefronts, and some can only stand a few people.
Some even set up a stall on the edge of the market to sell things.
Xie Yixiao thought about letting people set up a stall to try first, but after thinking about it carefully, if he set up a stall, he was afraid that he would not be able to sell it at a good price.
And her recipes are all good, some of them have been improved by later generations, and some of them have been improved by herself, and she and your trial users have also used them personally, and I think they are better than most of them on the market.
In this way, she thought about it, and it couldn't be sold too cheaply.
So he changed his mind and prepared to open a shop.
The shop that Mingxin found was not big or small, about four meters wide and six meters deep, and there was an attic on it, and the owner was an elderly couple.
In the past, the couple ran it themselves, and the woman was an old embroidery girl with good craftsmanship, and the business in the shop has been good.
However, now that I am older, some of them can't do it anymore, and the business is gradually failing, so I want to rent out this shop, not to mention that I am idle, and there is an income, and my life is passable.
"You've also seen the shop, there is an attic on this floor, you can put some things on weekdays, or rest, and this location is also excellent."
The location is really good, although it is not on the street, it is also in the middle of Xiangxiang Street, and there are a lot of people coming and going.
Xie Yixiao thought it was good, so he asked, "I don't know how much the rental price is?" ”
The woman said: "Look at this noble man really wants, my wife is not empty, how about ten taels of silver a month?" ”
The shops in the Imperial City are not cheap, and a shop like this can be bought for as little as eight hundred or thousands of taels of silver, and if you rent it, ten taels of silver is about the same.
"What about selling?"
"Sell?!" The woman was shocked for a moment, and then shook her head vigorously, "Noble, our shop is only rented and not sold." ”
Xie Yi smiled: "I am willing to give more money." ”
The woman said: "It's not that I'm not happy, it's just that the little ones in my family are staring at this shop, I and the old man are old, and we just want to spend our old age in peace, and when we are all gone, they will love as much as they like." ”
Xie Yixiao understood, probably because the sons are not very filial, if they are sold, maybe the money will be divided, and there will be no money in their hands in the future, this day is not easy, it is better to keep it, and you can get ten taels of silver every month.
If this is the case, it is not good to force people to sell their shops.
"Do you still rent it?"
Xie Yixiao hesitated: "I'll take a look." ”
Seeing that this couple is honest and loyal, but if their son is unreasonable, she doesn't know if he will come to make trouble, and she doesn't want to rent a shop and deal with these things.
The woman was a little apprehensive and said: "There are a few people who have asked again, if the nobles don't want it, if someone settles down, my wife will rent it to the next family." ”
Xie Yi smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'll take a look, if I can't find a good one, I'll come to see you again, if the shop is still there, let's talk about it again, if you find a suitable one, it's okay to rent it out, just think it's a loss." ”
The woman breathed a sigh of relief: "That, that's done......"
The group got out of the shop and walked around the market, the street was full of people, it was quite lively, Xie Yixiao looked at it and was quite satisfied.
Mingxin was a little puzzled: "Why didn't the girl agree, this shop is also extremely good." ”
Xie Yi said with a smile: "I listened to the mother-in-law's words, and I felt that the children in their family might not be very peaceful, if they bought it, it would be okay, I gave the money to buy it, who would dare to make trouble, but if I rented it, there might be other things in the future." ”
Mingxin understood: "So that's the case, then let's just look at it again." ”
A few people walked on the street, and as they walked, they came to the front of a shop, the door of which was ajar, and there were people arguing inside, and there were many people outside.
Mingxin saw Xie Yixiao stop, so she stepped forward to inquire about the news, and she found a plainly dressed woman: "This sister-in-law, what happened here, why did you quarrel?" ”
"Hey, I heard that the owner of this house is leaving, and he wants to sell this shop, because the price can't be negotiated, so there is a trouble."
"Why can't we talk?"
"It is said that the other party is only willing to give two thousand taels."
"Two thousand taels is not a lot." The shop was three times larger than the one they had seen earlier, and there was a second floor on it, but the price was about the same amount.
"I heard that there is a small courtyard inside, I heard that it is not small, where is it only worth two thousand!"
"I see, so which owner is it from? Which one came to buy it? ”
"I heard that this owner is the young lady of the Young Fu Mansion, alas, speaking of which, it is not the Young Fu Mansion now, it is the Yue family, I heard that this young lady is going to reconcile with her husband, and she plans to sell this shop and leave the imperial city."
"What about the people who want to buy the shop? Who is it? ”
"I heard that it is the eldest girl of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion."
Ming Xin got the news, and went back to talk to Xie Yixiao, Xie Yixiao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Young Lady Yue's shop?" Miss Xu wants to buy it? ”
Is this still looking for trouble with the Yue family?
"It's her." Mingxin said, "I heard that there are many people who want this shop, but Miss Xu stood up, who dared to ask for it again, and Miss Xu only gave two thousand taels, and the other party refused, so it made a fuss." ”
Spiegel was a little moved: "Girl, do you think we can ask Miss Xu for a favor and ask for this shop?" ”
This shop is much better than the one just now, even if it is not well managed in the future, it will not be a loss to sell the shop or operate something else.
And it's rare to find such a shop.
Xie Yixiao was also a little moved: "Let's go, let's go and have a look, let's take a look first." ”
So she led the people to the door of the shop.
Mingxin stood in front to open the way, Mingjing Qingluo stood on either side of Xie Yixiao, and the two guards followed behind.
The group crowded to the door, but was stopped by the guards in the door: "What are you waiting for?" ”
Spiegel said: "It's Miss Xu inside?" My girl's surname is Xie, and she has some friendship with Miss Xu, and I heard that she is here, so I came to take a look. ”
When the guard heard Mingjing say this, he didn't dare to be disrespectful, so he said, "It turned out to be Miss Xie, you wait, I'll send someone to talk to the girl." ”
Spiegel nodded: "I'm tired of this big brother." ”
The guard asked people to take their place, turned their heads and went to report, and after a while, Xu Huanting, who was dressed in red and wantonly and flamboyant, was late.
"What kind of wind is blowing you here today?"
