Chapter 224
Hua Xiaoqiao looked at the small shop in front of her. Although the road section here is not the best, it is enough. The most important thing is that there is a wide open space at the entrance here. If you have a carriage, you can stop here.

The two of them will not forget their main purpose of coming here. Although they can chat well, the most important thing now is to find out about the storefront.

Huang Lingxi came here yesterday, so the owner of Baozipu knows Huang Lingxi. Huang Lingxi came here yesterday and asked a few simple questions and said that he would bring people to the shop. It's just that at this moment, seeing Huang Lingxi brought a little girl, she felt helpless.

He took the initiative to say hello and said: "Little girl, you said yesterday that you wanted to bring someone to see the store, so you must have lied to me. Could it be that the little girl you brought today still needs a store?" After finishing speaking, she shook her head helplessly. Put the wrapped buns in the steamer.

Huang Lingxi knew that the owner of the bun shop didn't believe it, she looked up at the boss and said seriously: "Uncle, don't look down on the people I brought, she really wants the shop, if you don't believe me, you will find out after talking about it." , tell you this now and you won’t believe that we are not.”

The owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop thought about it, Hua Xiaoqiao and the others could not really come here to play tricks on him. After putting all the wrapped buns in the steamer, he looked at Hua Xiaoqiao seriously: "Miss, you Do you really want this storefront?"

Just now, Hua Xiaoqiao stood aside and did not speak, even if they were chatting between the two of them, she did not say anything. When the owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop asked some disbelief, Hua Xiaoqiao nodded gently: "Yes, boss, we didn't come here on purpose. I want to tease you, can you introduce us to the situation of this store? I really want this store. "

The owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop wiped his hands with a cotton cloth, asked a few people to sit down on the small stools behind him, and patiently explained to them: "How about this store, I have been doing business here for more than a year. , how turbulent it is now, you also know that business is getting harder every day, and the location here is not very close to the street, so the business is naturally not as good as other places. I rented here because the rent here is cheap. Pots, pans, tables and stools can all be placed inside, so I can relax myself, but now the little money I earn a month is really not enough for my family’s expenses. Naturally, I want to save money so I plan to sell it out. To be honest, because of the location, it is not easy to get out here. What about your adults, little girl? Can you make decisions on such a big matter? And if you come here alone, don’t you have an adult to accompany you? It seems that your accent is a foreigner. "

The owner of the shop directly threw out a long list of questions. These questions were asked by Huang Lingxi before. Hua Xiaoqiao felt that the owner of the bun shop was very honest and did not hide it: "I am here alone in my house for the time being. This matter is natural. I am here to ask, of course I can make the decision, the shop owner can rest assured, I just want to ask how the rent is here?"

The owner of the shop still had doubts in his eyes. After all, Hua Xiaoqiao was a bit unreasonable at this age to say what he made a decision. He was a little suspicious: "Little girl, what you said is not lying to me, are you really able to make up your own mind? This matter The matter is not a small matter, as I said just now, the expenses here add up to about one or two taels of silver a month."

Hua Xiaoqiao knows that this is the capital city, and also knows that the consumption here must be higher than that of Tongzhou City, but she didn't expect such a small store in front of her to need a tael of silver. Now she understands what the store owner said. The pressure was a bit high, she looked at the busy aunt in front of the steamed stuffed bun stall, and knew that the business here was pretty good, although it wasn't particularly good, but it was a lot of pressure to spend a tael of money here in a month's rent .

The owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop saw the hesitant look on Hua Xiaoqiao's face, and said alone: ​​"Little girl, you don't know that you are an outsider, but the rent on this street is the most expensive in the capital, and you also know that the shops here are all expensive. Jin, have you seen the rice shop next door to me, it’s bigger than mine, but it costs five taels of silver a month, and it can’t do business if it’s a little short of business.”

Hua Xiaoqiao was completely surprised. Five taels of silver completely shocked her. She never thought that the shops here are so expensive, nor did she think that such a large shop in front of her would require so much money.

I can't help feeling that the rent I paid when I was in Tongzhou City was really a conscience.

But after thinking about it, this is the capital of the Zhou Kingdom and the most prosperous place in the capital. Although the facade at the end of the street here is not particularly large, the price seems to be acceptable, especially since there is such a large piece of land outside that can be used , Think about it or feel very cost-effective.

Hua Xiaoqiao looked at the boss and smiled slightly: "How do I pay the rent here to whom? What else needs to be done specifically? I plan to continue here. I can still afford a tael of silver."

Hearing what Hua Xiaoqiao said, the store owner really believed more than half of it. After all, now that money has been mentioned, Hua Xiaoqiao's reaction is still very trustworthy.

The shop owner looked at the business in front of him, he was a little overwhelmed, and motioned for a few people to wait and go to help.

When the shop owner left, Huang Lingxi said worriedly: "You said just now that you want to open a flower shop, Xiao Qiao, you can think clearly. You must know that there are many bosses in the capital who have tried to open a flower shop, but the last one In the end, you will lose all your money, are you sure you want to do this?"

Hua Xiaoqiao didn't hide anything but nodded seriously: "Yes, I'm sure I want to open a shop, you can rest assured I know it well, after all, I can't make fun of my own money, I've thought about it for a long time I also think very clearly that you can rest assured that I can handle it myself."

Huang Lingxi is still worried, even though she just met Hua Xiaoqiao, she still doesn't want Hua Xiaoqiao to lose money at that time, she is a little anxious: "Hua Xiaoqiao, what I told you is true, the business here is not as easy as you think , Have you ever visited the flower gardens outside the city? The big families in the city buy flowers and plants directly there, and the rest of the ordinary people are willing to buy flowers.”

Seeing Huang Lingxi worried about her so much, to be honest, Hua Xiaoqiao's heart really warmed up. Although she only knew Huang Lingxi better, she already felt that Huang Lingxi was really a good person. She smiled and looked at Huang Lingxi seriously: "This piece How should I tell you about the matter, I have really done the research, I have been to Zhu Boss outside the city, you can rest assured that I have my own plan here, I am not selling flowers and plants, I am just helping people to save flowers and plants. The shop is also because I am afraid that others will not find me, so I rent a shop, and I also plan to sell a little flowers and plants, you don't have to worry about these, if you are willing to help me, just guard the shop when the time comes."

The owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop just finished his work, came over and sat down and said: "Little girl, I have paid the rent for this shop for three years before, and I will keep all the notes written by the shop owner. You can rest assured of the paperwork, just give me the rest of the rent."

This matter is very simple. Hua Xiaoqiao didn't expect it to be so simple. After the calculation, the boss said that he has done business here for more than a year, which means that there is still more than a year left, and more than a year is only a dozen or two. Two silver, she has enough money on her body, and then she only needs to do a simple renovation here, and then buy some flowers and plants, and she will plant a few more pots by herself, which will be enough.

Hua Xiaoqiao is a free-spirited person, she asked some other questions about the store and settled the matter readily.

Huang Lingxi was really shocked. She looked at Hua Xiaoqiao in amazement. She didn't expect Hua Xiaoqiao to do things so freely. When she made a decision, she made it directly without muddling and it came out with so much money, 20 taels of silver. The banknote was just taken out like this, even the owner of the bun shop looked at Hua Xiaoqiao in disbelief, and was also surprised by Hua Xiaoqiao's actions.

After taking care of the written receipt given by the shop owner, after three days of discussion, she came to take over the shop, and she herself was relieved.

When Huang Lingxi and Hua Xiaoqiao left together, she was surprised and speechless.

After a while, he looked at Hua Xiaoqiao leisurely and said with a heavy heart: "Hua Xiaoqiao, what do you do, why do you take out so much money? And how do you have so much money? "

Such a young child has so much money on him, and he can make such a big decision at such a young age without having to discuss it with others. It is enviable to look at.

Hua Xiaoqiao shrugged: "I earned all of these. In fact, I also did business in Tongzhou City before. It's just that something happened and I came here. You can rest assured that I know you are worried about me. I really appreciate it You care, but you also have to believe that I must have that strength, I have earned all this money so hard, I will not use it as a joke."

Huang Lingxi also knew the situation of Hua Xiaoqiao's family. The boy looked up at Hua Xiaoqiao adoringly: "Sister, can I do things with you in the future? Don't worry, I don't need wages. I just need you to take care of the food. I'm very happy." I can do everything I can do if you need to run errands, I really admire you if you can't bring me to do business together."

Hua Xiaoqiao knew that the boy was called Heng'er in the chat with Huang Lingxi just now, and now she laughed when she heard what Heng'er said, and she didn't know why, just like a habit, she reached out and touched Heng'er's head in a low voice Said: "As long as your sister agrees, you can do things in the store together, and Qing'er will follow along, so that your sister can take care of the two of you. Speaking of it, don't worship me. It is said that the poor's children are early." I just have more chances than you guys, but in fact, I have gone through many detours and endured a lot of hardships."

What others can see is often not necessarily true. Everything is like this. She doesn't know how to explain it, but now she knows that what she needs is the goal.

Huang Lingxi looked at the sky and it was still early, and thought that Hua Xiaoqiao was also very kind to them, and Hua Xiaoqiao treated them to delicious food yesterday, she herself is a person who doesn't like to owe favors to others.

Several people were walking on the street, Hua Xiaoqiao had no interest in the things sold on the street, and just walked quietly.

Huang Lingxi hesitated for a long time and finally said hesitantly: "You have nothing to do today, Hua Xiaoqiao. I just thought that you invited us to dinner yesterday, and it's my turn to invite you today. I can't afford to invite you outside." But at home."

Huang Lingxi smiled a little embarrassedly, thinking that she only had such abilities now, compared to Hua Xiaoqiao, she knew that she was really inferior, so she smiled awkwardly.

Hua Xiaoqiao is well aware of the situation at Huang Lingxi's family, looking at the expectant faces of the three of them, she said softly: "It's not your turn to invite me today, think about it, you have done me such a big favor now, today I'll treat you guys, if you have a chance in the future, it won't be too late for you to invite me to dinner again."

Hua Xiaoqiao was also looking for an excuse, she really didn't want Huang Lingxi to spend money.

As soon as Hua Xiaoqiao said it, Huang Lingxi was surprised. She looked at Hua Xiaoqiao in a daze and replied in surprise: "How can this be done? You invited us to such a good meal yesterday, so we have to treat you today. , Although there are no big fish and big meat in my family, there are still small wine and small dishes, you can rest assured that you will not add burden to our family."

Hua Xiaoqiao also knew that Huang Lingxi was kind, but she was too embarrassed to go to Huang Lingxi's house.

Holding Huang Lingxi's hand, she walked to the restaurant beside her: "I'll ask you to say anything today, and don't be polite to me. You have also seen that I am not short of money."

Huang Lingxi was forcibly dragged into the restaurant by Hua Xiaoqiao, and Qing'er and Heng'er had to follow behind.

Hua Xiaoqiao took the three of them to the restaurant and found a table. It was time for dinner. Although there were not many people eating, there were already customers eating.

The waiter looked at the children who came in and frowned, with obvious displeasure on their faces.

"What to eat?" The waiter's attitude was a little bit bad, and his voice was a little loud.

Hua Xiaoqiao was naturally unhappy when she felt the attitude of the shop waiter.

After all, she came here to eat anyway, how can the attitude of the waiter in the shop make people happy.

Huang Lingxi was originally a person who was not afraid of anything. She looked at Hua Xiaoqiao and saw that Hua Xiaoqiao was about to have a fit. Naturally, she was dissatisfied with the tone of the shop waiter and directly patted the table and said angrily: "You are What attitude?"

The waiter's expression changed slightly and he became displeased, but when he looked at the counter, he found that the shopkeeper was not there, and immediately became arrogant: "I don't care about your business, can you afford to eat?"

It must be very annoying to say this, Hua Xiaoqiao and Huang Lingxi immediately became angry.

Hua Xiaoqiao also slapped the table with a "snap".
