Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Chapter 265 Buying Hualou
I have seen four of the five brothels, and the last one is at the end of the street. It looks quite wide but it is a bit older than the others.

"Young master and girl, come in and have a look. My place is old, but it is wider and cheaper than the others."

The mother who was talking was at least in her thirties, and the thick powder couldn't cover the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes. Seeing that impatient look, she wished she didn't even have to give away the money.

Rent has to be paid every month. Who doesn’t worry if there is no business that pays rent every month?
Ji Xun and Shen Yuan walked in, and the inside was similar to the other houses. There was a small circular stage in the middle of the lobby for the girls to dance, play and sing, and there were stairs on the left and right leading to the second floor.

When you go up to the second floor, there is a circle of railings. You can look down on the first floor by lying on the railings, and you can see the performances on the stage at a glance.

Behind the railings are small rooms one by one. Shen Yuan counted twenty rooms in total. They are indeed big enough, and it is spacious enough to overlook the first floor from the second floor. If it is converted into a restaurant, at least thirty tables can be placed.

As soon as I asked my mother the price, 80 taels of silver would be transferred. This price, coupled with such a spacious building, is really tempting.It's a pity, it's a pity that it's located in such an alley, A Feng is only seven years old, if he hangs around in this kind of makeup, it will definitely ruin him for the rest of his life.Seeing Shen Yu'an shaking her head, her mother's heart sank, but she still had a smile on her face and tried her best to recommend it.

"Young lady, follow me to take a look at the backyard. The backyard is spacious, with fish ponds, gazebos and small gardens. If the environment is so good and the location is good, how can you afford it without 200 taels?"

Mother flicked her handkerchief and went downstairs, leading the two of them to the backyard.

When he came to the backyard and looked, Shen Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed to a door at the other end of the yard and asked, "Where does this door lead to?"

"Oh~~ This courtyard gate leads to Tai'an Street." Mom hurriedly led Shen Yuan over, opened the courtyard door, and pointed to an alley outside, "Going out here is Tai'an Street, do you want to go there? look?"

Shen Yuan said hello, and followed her mother into the alley with Ji Xun.

The alley is not very wide, but it is more than enough for a carriage, and the distance of a hundred meters leads to the road outside.

"This is Tai'an Street." The three walked to the entrance of the alley, and the mother pointed outside and said, "Didn't I just see that you have brought a child?
If there are children in the family who go to school, then my place is convenient. '

"Oh? What schools are there around here?" Ji Xun asked.

"There are two private schools there, and the masters are both scholars." Mom said while pointing, "There are two larger academies there and there. By the way, the dean of the Qinglin Academy in the north has passed the Jinshi. Yes, very learned."

"Mother understands all this?" Shen Yuan asked strangely.

Mom smiled shyly: "Damn~~ I've been in this business for decades."

Shen Yuan shrugged. Ancient literati and poets all loved to patronize the place of fireworks. It is a trend, and it is just like that if there is no fun.

"What do you think of Yu'an?" Ji Xun asked Shen Yu'an calmly, he should be very satisfied. A Feng went out from the backyard to go to school and was completely unaffected.

"Ah Xun is the master." Shen Yu'an replied softly, if her husband can hold up the sky, of course she will give him a chance, wouldn't it be nice to let go of the shopkeeper?
My mother was also quite confused when she saw the two people flirting with each other. This couple? Taking over the brothel? It's a bit weird.

"Ah Xun thinks it's okay." Ji Xun said calmly, "But the price?"

Mom hurriedly said: "It can be discussed, it can be discussed, young lady, let's talk slowly in the lobby."

The three of them entered the backyard and returned to the lobby to sit down. Ji Xun talked the price down to 20 taels in a few words, and the final deal was 60 taels.

This side of Shen Yuan really thinks that Ji Xun can hold his breath, and she admires this calm and sophisticated posture, so her husband was really overqualified when he was a hunter before.

All the girls in the mother's building are gone, and I am too old and sad to keep a single guest, and I will lose all my capital if I don't transfer the building.Someone here took over and took care of how much money it was, as if throwing off a big burden, feeling relaxed.

Immediately signed the contract and handed it over, my mother took the burden and left.

After her mother left, only Shen Yuan and Ji Xun were left in the big brothel. Shen Yuan looked up at Ji Xun with his chin propped up like a little girl.

"Ah Xun must be a good hand in business, and every word he utters has so much weight." This is Shen Yuan's sincere words, her husband doesn't look like Orion at all.

Ji Xun gently pinched Shen Yu'an's small nose.

Even though he was wearing the coat of 'Orion', he used to be the Night King, the emperor's most important eldest prince, if it weren't for the rule of establishing a heir and not establishing an elder, would Dasheng's prince be Huang Fuyi?
"Don't worry, my husband will help you in business." He used assistance, after all he was concerned about his identity as the Night King. Although he always emphasized that he was Ji Xun, deep down in his heart, he never really forgot that he was the Night King Huang Furan?
But no matter who he is, he will grow old with Yu Yu and stay together for a lifetime.

There was no one around, Ji Xun's presumptuous eyes fell on the lady's delicate and charming lips again, Shen Yuan pouted his lips on his own initiative.This building is roughly estimated to be at least 700 square meters, with [-] square meters upstairs and [-] square meters downstairs.

At that time, the upper floor will be converted into [-] private rooms, and the downstairs lobby can accommodate [-] tables, [-] tables easily.The location is also very good, guests can take Wanhua Street to come in, and our own people can take Tai'an Street.

And with such a big backyard, there is no need to worry about no place for pickled spicy cabbage.

They went to the kitchen to have a look again, Shen Yuan and Ji Xun were also very satisfied, it was very spacious, but the stove needed to be replaced, it was not professional enough.

"There are several rooms in the backyard, let's go and choose the one we like to live in." Shen Yuan felt that something was wrong as soon as the words came out, and blushed quickly, "Choose two rooms, one for each person."

"Regardless of the room, your husband can't leave you anymore."

"Forgot the third chapter of the agreement?"
"Didn't I do it?"

The two bickered all the way to the backyard.

There are four rooms in the backyard, all of which are quite large, with a smooth bluestone floor and clean.

It's just that there is a musty smell after staying for a long time. Shen Yuan opened the window to let the air in. When the time comes, after moving in, diffuse the incense, and the smell should be able to get rid of it.

There are four rooms where she and A Xun live in one, A Feng lives in one, and the other two can be used by several brothers.

At that time, a lot of manpower will be needed. Brother Shen, Second Brother, Third Brother Shen, and Brother Xingwang, two rooms for four people are suitable.

Shen Yuan decided not to hire them, and directly partnered with them, and we will talk about the details at that time.

After looking up and down, inside and out, and discussing how to modify it, Ji Xun and Shen Yuan went out from the backyard, took a detour to Penglai Teahouse, and asked Shang Jifeng and Shen Xingwang to go to the Yamen to see Zhang Neng off. .
