Chapter 113 Reconstruction
The truth about the shop's haunting has been found out, Xiao Jinyue thought about it, and asked the boy to go to the Tongfu Inn to invite Chen Dong's family over.

Hearing Xiao Jinyue's discovery of the secret passage, Chen Dong's family looked surprised. His family almost took the shop as their home, and the whole family lived here for more than ten years. He didn't even know that someone had dug the secret passage into his backyard.

Xiao Jinyue asked the second steward to take him down the secret passage, and then played a few notes on the water piano herself.

Listening to the familiar and chilling ghost voice, Mr. Chen choked up in his throat, "I knew it was impossible for my son's ghost to come back to make trouble, I knew it was impossible..."

Seeing this scene, Xiao Jinyue didn't say anything to comfort her, but quietly let Chen Dong's family vent all the suppressed emotions in her heart.

After a long while, Chen Dong's family calmed down, and wiped away the tears that had slipped down, "Miss Xiao, thank you for finding out the truth and telling me. I am relieved to know that the shop is not haunted. I will come back later." I will return the money for buying the shop to you, and I will not charge a cent for this shop, it will be given to you for free."

Xiao Jinyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Boss Chen, the reason why I told you the truth about the haunted shop today is to let you know that you have been running the shop very well. The reason why the shop is haunted is just someone else's conspiracy. Don't worry about it, it's not your fault. After you go back, just explain the matter clearly to the aunt and Brother An, so that the two can feel at ease, take good care of their bodies, and live a good life no matter what. "

Xiao Jinyue just couldn't bear to see that Chen Dong's wife was so old that losing his son was not counted, and he was gossip about that his son's wronged soul came back to the shop to make trouble, scaring An Ge'er so that he couldn't rest for a day, and was even frightened. Got to fall out of a tree and break my leg.

For such a big shop with a backyard and land, Mr. Chen’s family sold it to her for only 500 taels, which is no different from giving it away for nothing.Xiao Jinyue has always felt that she has picked up a big deal, and she can't bear it. She chose to tell the truth to the Chen Dong family. Firstly, she wanted them to get rid of the haunted heart, so that they could take care of their bodies with peace of mind. Second, she wanted to repay the Chen Dong family for running the shop. Selling her kindness cheaply.

Knowing that the shop was not haunted, Chen Dong's family went to a heartache, and the expectation for his son's return rose again. In order to thank Xiao Jinyue, he would give her the shop for nothing.

Xiao Jinyue persuaded her for a long time, but Chen Dong's family insisted on returning the 500 taels she paid for the shop.Xiao Jinyue had no choice but to say that if Mr. Chen's family insisted on returning the money, she would not want this shop.

Seeing her resolute attitude, Mr. Chen had no choice but to give up the idea.

……

After finding out the truth about the haunting, Xiao Jinyue thought for a while, and in front of all the craftsmen and storekeepers, she played a string of notes on the water piano to let everyone know that her shop was not haunted. It's all played by this piano.

Seeing with your own eyes and hearing with your own ears is the best way to dispel rumors.

After listening to Xiao Jinyue's playing, the shopkeepers and shop assistants in the surrounding shops were surprised and then happy.Their shop is near Chen Ji Silk and Satin Shop, and the business of their shop was more or less affected by the haunting.

Now that I know that Chen Ji Silk and Satin Shop is not haunted, but I think it is a haunted place. From now on, those customers will have no scruples, and I believe they will come back to patronize their shop soon.When the business in the store is good, their boss will naturally be satisfied, and when the boss is satisfied, life for them shopkeepers will also improve.

After the matter was over, Xiao Jinyue ordered the shop to continue construction.

Those craftsmen witnessed this scene with their own eyes, and they worked hard.

They heard that this shop was haunted before. Although they didn't say it, they were actually a little taboo in their hearts, and they were worried that some bad accidents would happen on the way to work.

Now I know that this haunting was deliberately done by someone, and it was a trick to seize this shop.Those craftsmen were relieved one after another. They no longer had any scruples, and they felt much more at ease when they started working.

As for the secret passage, Xiao Jinyue felt that it was useless and was going to have someone seal it up.

Unexpectedly, when her father came back from the palace on duty at night and heard about it, he immediately came over to check it out, and then took advantage of the night when there was no one there, and personally brought two cronies to dig up the secret passage that had been sealed for a third Come.

The entrance of the secret passage was deliberately camouflaged, so that it was impossible to tell that there was another secret passage here.

Xiao Jinyue looked at her father curiously, but Xiao Pingyuan didn't say much, he only said that it was useful to keep him in this secret channel.Let her forget about it, and don't mention it to others in the future.

Xiao Jinyue twitched the corners of her mouth. She always felt that this cheap father had secrets in her, and she was not a brave and impulsive person who acted rudely as she appeared on the surface.

Even though he didn't want to say more, Xiao Jinyue didn't continue to ask, but kept the matter in his heart.

The craftsman came to work the next day and found that the secret passage had been sealed up. Xiao Jinyue was just understating the authenticity. In order to speed up the construction of the shop and open the shop as soon as possible, she asked the servants in the mansion to fill up and seal the secret passage at night. .

Those craftsmen did not suspect him, knowing that Xiao Jinyue wanted to build the shop as soon as possible, so they worked harder.

Building a shop is manual work. Xiao Jinyue asked the craftsmen to build a large stove next to the shop, and asked the second steward to pick a few wives from the soldiers' families to cook for everyone.

Those who work here see that they are not only satisfied with three meals a day, but also have a combination of meat and vegetables, and their wages are sufficient.I come here early almost every day, and work until dark at night before returning reluctantly.

In less than a month, a two-storey shop was completed.

At this speed, people in the nearby shops all clicked their tongues.

After the shop was built, the shopkeeper and the cashier and other staff had to be ready. Xiao Jinyue invited Princess Minghua to the teahouse, and the two discussed together.

Although Princess Minghua opened the store in partnership with Xiao Jinyue, she doesn't know anything about business, she just wants to be a hands-off shopkeeper, and Xiao Jinyue will take care of everything, and she just waits for the dividends.

Since it was a partnership business, Xiao Jinyue didn't want to take care of everything by herself.

After persuasion for a long time, Princess Minghua didn't nod and arranged for people to come over. Finally, Xiao Jinyue had no choice but to say, "After our sugar store opens, there must be a lot of customers from noble families. You also know that I don't have any suitable people around me. But the maids and servants in your palace are well-informed, you pick two servants and two maids from the mansion and arrange them in the store, so that if someone makes trouble in the future, you can also shake the scene."

After hearing this, Princess Minghua remembered that Xiao Jinyue had been living at the border with her family before, and was indeed not familiar with the personnel and affairs of the capital, let alone the people around her.

Only then nodded and agreed to Xiao Jinyue's suggestion.

For the rest of the staff, Xiao Jinyue went to her father again without hesitation.
