144 Chapter 1 The Capital Opens [-]
Before he reached the gate of the mansion, he saw Miao Zhiming yawning step by step, as if smoking a big cigarette, his face was swollen, and he walked in pompously.

When he saw them, he was stunned at first, but then he just acted as if he didn't see them, and continued to walk towards his own yard step by step and yawn.

Miao Yinshu walked past him and left the Miao Mansion without making a sound.

After walking a little distance away from Xia, Leng Jianxiao couldn't help but said: "I think your father should also be a strict person, why do you have a laissez-faire attitude towards him, the second son?"

Miao Yinshu didn't have a good impression of her father, and she instinctively thought that calling her to the capital would not be as simple as reuniting their family.

Moreover, Mrs. Miao was obviously pretending to be sick, but her twin brother was nowhere to be seen.Also, even though she was allowed to go out of the house to play, she had to take care of her daughter who could not be said to be a direct relative of the Miao family, but a niece.

spit!She was a little skeptical of how the old man of the Miao family, the servant of the household department, managed to get up, and why he would tell such an obvious lie.

Just like some people I met last night, everyone showed suspicion when they heard Shen Yupei's introduction. They obviously didn't believe that she was a niece, but no one directly pointed it out.

But, who cares, as long as he doesn't move her for a while, she will be happy to live here with food and shelter.

Today's day is colder than yesterday, the clouds in the sky are very thick, and it looks like there will be a heavy snowfall.

Miao Yinshu clenched the sable fur cloak tightly with both hands, and wanted to straighten the fur of the scarf again, but was in vain.His heart was slightly suffocated, and he couldn't help lowering his eyebrows and lowering his eyes to look at the empty neck.

Leng Jianxiao beside her has been paying attention to her all the time, seeing her lonely expression at this moment, he sighed slightly and said: "Your scarf has been burned, so you don't need to wear it, why don't you change the rest?"

Miao Yinshu looked back at him with firmness in his eyes: "Since the one he gave you can no longer be worn, I won't wear anything else!"

"You..." Leng Jianxiao's eyes darkened, but he could only sigh, "Why are you doing this!"

Miao Yinshu smiled faintly, but did not speak.

The two walked towards the Xuanhutang silently all the way, they didn't choose to take a carriage, they wanted to see if there was a better choice.

Xuanhutang has opened four stores in the capital, located on the four main streets in the southeast and northwest respectively. The main hall in West Street is also the largest.The place Shen Yupei introduced to Miao Yinshu was next to the Hanging Pot Hall on South Street.

South Street is also the closest to Miao Shilang's Mansion, and this is the most prosperous street on the four streets in the entire capital, especially when it comes to food. On the adjacent small streets, as long as it is a business related to food All are booming.

The Xuanhu Hall is located right in the middle of the South Street. Don’t want Miao Yinshu to express anything. Leng Jianxiao saw the empty bunk, and he had already thought about it. .However, without seeing Shen Yupei himself, he felt somewhat better.

The shopkeeper of the Xuanhu Hall probably had received instructions from the young master's family a long time ago. After seeing Miao Yinshu come in to inquire, he immediately asked the staff to find the owner of the shop next door, saying that he lived not far away.

Miao Yinshu was very satisfied with the bustle of the street, and after hearing the shopkeeper's detailed explanation that this shop could be bought directly, she was even more looking forward to it.

After chatting for a while, the man who had just left brought in a woman who was over fifty years old. Although the old man had gray hair all over her head, she was steady on her feet and in good health.

Although the clothing material is not the best, it is also made of silk and satin, obviously not from poor families.

The woman first took Miao Yinshu and Leng Jianxiao to look at the house back and forth, and then said: "If my son hadn't been transferred to other places as an official, he wouldn't worry about us staying in the capital without anyone to take care of us. The couple are also unwilling to sell this shop!"

Hearing what she said, Leng Jianxiao's doubts eased a little.

Miao Yinshu didn't care why the shop was being sold, because to her, as long as the house was bought with a one-time payment, it was absolutely impossible to have other factors in it.What's more, it was introduced by Shen Yupei, so she can rest assured.

"So that's it!" Miao Yinshu responded, and then asked, "Then what is the price for your yard?"

As soon as money was mentioned, the woman's eyes were a little different, and she showed a little shrewdness: "Young lady, son, you should also know that the price of land in the capital is very expensive, and my entire yard was originally rented It also costs a hundred taels of silver a year. I will never talk nonsense about this, you can ask the neighbor next door."

"Well! I believe in auntie! Moreover, Mr. Shen introduced me to buy auntie's yard. Naturally, he knew auntie's character, so he would give me advice!" Although Miao Yinshu didn't understand the land price in the capital, but seeing Leng Jian beside him Xiao didn't say much, and guessed that the woman's words were true, "Ma'am, just say a price! Let's talk about it!"

Of course, the pavement, the yard inside, and the rooms are really good, but if she asks for a price, then she will bargain on the spot.

"Yo! Seeing that the girl is so young, she is quite a cheerful person! Then the old lady just said it straight!" The woman seemed to be relieved, and then said, "Girl, to be honest, we will have a meeting within two days." I’m out of Beijing, and I originally wanted to ask the neighbors to help sell the house or rent it out. Since the girl is straightforward, I don’t want to worry about it anymore, 5000 taels, what do you think?”

"Auntie, although your shop is very good, the price of 5000 taels is still a little bit high!" Before Miao Yinshu could respond, Leng Jianxiao had already answered, "The rent or land price in the capital these years Housing prices are indeed on the rise, but the land price on this South Street is still not as high as that near the residences of princes and generals on East Street. As far as I know, such a small house over there is probably only 5000 taels of silver !"

"Yo! The accent sounds like you're not from the capital, but I didn't expect to know the capital very well!" The woman didn't blush, she was asking for a lot of money, and praised Leng Jianxiao instead.

"It's easy to say! Easy to say!" Leng Jianxiao twitched the corners of his mouth at Miao Yinshu, looking at her suspicious eyes, probably thinking of meeting many officials and noble sons in the court last night, it seems that he wants to doubt that he said first I am not familiar with the dialect of the capital.

"Then aunt, can you make it cheaper?" Miao Yinshu first gave Leng Jianxiao a look that you will confess to me later, and then he did not directly counter the price, but listened to how the woman made the second price, "After all, I'm just making some snacks for sale. I'm afraid I won't be able to make a lot of money. If your asking price is too expensive, I'm afraid I won't be able to afford it!"

"Hey! Girl, my asking price of 5000 taels is indeed a bit high, just because we are going to move home, so we will not pay for the tables and chairs left in this shop and the things in the side room in the backyard. Moved away. You can take a closer look, these furniture, tables and chairs are all brand new, integrated, the value should be more than 500 taels of silver."

"Ma'am, we believe that these things must cost more than 500 taels, but they are second-hand goods after all, so the price cannot be calculated with first-hand goods." Miao Yinshu paused, then glanced at the layout inside and said,
"Well, ma'am, I sincerely want to buy it, and you are also anxious to sell it. I think that not all of the household items here were bought by your own back then, but also by someone who rented your shop later, right? .I'll give you 700 taels of silver, what do you think!"

"You seem to be a little girl who knows how to do business, but you have seen the key at a glance. The old lady wanted to earn more money, but she didn't expect you to see through it!" The red heart didn't jump, and he nodded after making a joke, "Well, four thousand seven is four thousand seven, and it saves me the trouble of selling these belongings, which is laborious and time-consuming!"

"Okay! The aunt can bring the deed of the house and the land with me. Let's go to the government office to complete the transfer procedures now!" Although four thousand and seven hundred taels of silver is not a small amount, if it can be sold in the capital The sign of the full moon has been launched, and there must be a lot of money in the future, and it is possible to make a lot of money every day!
When the time comes, she will open the pet shop again. She believes that with her ability and luck, she will be able to succeed.

"Miss, do you carry so much money with you?" The woman was a little surprised now.Looking at the long sable fur on her body, it is indeed very precious and valuable, but she only has a white jade hairpin on her hair, and she doesn't have any extra accessories, but she never thought that she has a huge amount of money in her body.

Miao Yinshu smiled lightly, but did not answer directly, but only asked, "I wonder if Madam needs a banknote or has she exchanged it for silver?"

"Of course it's a bank note, and it's easy to carry!" The woman thought to herself, no wonder a girl with a foreign accent wanted to buy a shop, it turned out that she was rich and powerful! "I have both the renunciation and the title deed, let's go to the government office!"

Going to the government office to go through the transfer procedures is much faster than buying a second-hand house in later generations. After a while, the house deed and land deed were changed, and the name of Miao Yinshu was changed, and the house truly belonged to her.

Seeing that it was still early, Miao Yinshu asked Leng Jianxiao to bring a few servants from the Miao Mansion to help her with cleaning, while she went to the market herself to see what equipment needed to be purchased.

When she bought some necessary items for the kitchen and asked someone to deliver the things to the shop for her, she heard a commotion in the backyard. It turned out that it was Xiao Zhaoer and Miao Yindie who followed.

"Sister! Sister! Can you make some snacks today?" Hearing Miao Yinshu's voice asking someone to move things, Xiao Zhao'er had already run out, followed by the chubby girl Miao Yindie.

"How can it be so fast, we have to build a stove after cleaning!" Miao Yinshu patted the heads of the two children, these two greedy cats.

Here, Miao Yinshu, Leng Jianxiao and the others are busy cleaning. On the other side, in an upstairs lounge of a teahouse, a stern man sits by the window, looks at the shop over there, and listens to the conversation of the person opposite. report.

"Back to the master, according to your instructions, the subordinate deliberately raised the price, so Leng Jianxiao did not doubt it anymore!"

"Hmm! Very good!" The stern young man was Shen Yupei, he nodded slightly and took a sip of his tea and asked, "Does Miss Miao have any doubts?"

"No!" The person who answered was the woman who was over fifty just now, but at this time her voice was not as old as just now, but very young.

When she replied, she gently pulled her hands along the hairline, and a thin human skin mask was peeled off, and it turned out to be the woman named Liuli.

She looked at the master's eyes focused on the other side, hesitated a little, but still couldn't help but questioned and said: "Master, Xuanhu Hall is our important base, and if you let her open a shop next to us, won't it leak us? secret?"

Shen Yupei raised his eyes slightly when he heard the words, and the lingering eyes shot straight at Liuli, and said in a low voice: "You are questioning the decision of the master!"

"Subordinates dare not!" Liu Li's complexion darkened, and she immediately lowered her head and closed her eyes.

"The reason why I let you out to atone for your sins is because you are the only woman by my side, and only women can reduce people's defensiveness! If you don't want to go back and think about your past, then you should remember your own duty!" Liuli's gaze came from Liuli's eyes. Turning his face away, Shen Yupei once again looked at the bustling shop opposite.
