Peasant women who keep their wives and make money should be self-improvement

Chapter 43
"Sijin, do you want to come down for a walk?"

"Okay!"

Wu Shi and Wu Man also jumped out of the ox cart, ready to walk, but the yamen guard at the town gate told Leng Han tactfully that cattle are not allowed to enter the town.

Leng Han pondered for a while, and after discussing with Sijin, he planned to sell the cow for five taels of silver, but someone returned four taels of silver, so Leng Han and Si Jin calculated and sold it.

"Mom, where are we going now?"

"Find a place to eat first, and when you're full, go to a broker (jian) to buy a street noodle, and settle down first!"

For cold this arrangement.Sijin had no objection, the four of them found a noodle restaurant and ordered egg noodles with green vegetables. Although the soup lacked water, Ke Sijin, Wu Shi and Wu Man ate very happily, as if they were eating delicacies from mountains and seas. It's wide open, but the next table, a few men, are eating side dishes and drinking, even more nonsense...

Listening to those men talking nonsense, Sijin listened, frowning, Leng Han raised his hand and touched Sijin's head, signaling to Yijin to eat noodles soon.

After eating the noodles, Leng Han took Si Jin, Wu Shi and Wu Man to find the largest brokerage firm in Qingping Town through the guidance of passers-by.

"Well, ma'am, what kind of house do you want?" Duan Yan asked, and asked the servant to serve tea to Leng Han and the others, and carefully served desserts for Si Jin and Wu Shi Wu Man.

"I want to buy a street surface, the kind that can do some business!"

Hearing this, Duan Yan pondered for a moment before saying, "Ma'am, I do have a few streets in my hand, but the location is different and the price is also different. Which one do you want?"

In the past, Leng Han never wanted to earn a lot of money, and had too many good days. As long as Sijin was by her side and called her mother sweetly, she would be the happiest day, but now, she can't...

"If it's in a good location, it's a little bigger. I'm going to open a tavern!"

As soon as Duan Yan heard Leng Han's tone, he knew that Leng Han was definitely not those women who stay at home, so he said with a smile, "Okay, Madam, I'll take you there to see the place, let's talk about the price?"

"it is good!"

Seeing that Leng Han agreed, Duan Yan motioned for Leng Han to drink tea first, got up and told the boys to harness the horses and prepare the carriage.

In order not to let others gossip, Duan Yan let Leng Han, Si Jin, Wu Shi and Wu Man sit in the carriage, while he sat outside the carriage, occasionally talking to Leng Han to warm up the atmosphere.

Would you like to introduce the streets of Qingping Town to Leng Han, there is a market every [-], plus it is well connected, there are many caravans coming and going, and there is a trading market in the south of the town, so even if you don't go to the market, there are still many people on weekdays.

There are also many taverns and inns. When Duan Yan said this, he naturally hoped that Leng Han could consider it. In Qingping Town, if the cooking skills are not excellent, it is impossible to make money by opening restaurants.

As for Duan Yan's enthusiasm, Leng Han just smiled and said nothing.

When I came to the place Duan Yan mentioned, the location was really good, but Duan Yan didn't want the house to be free, so he rented the storefront in front to the shopkeeper Feng who sells silk and satin next door.

When Shopkeeper Feng saw Duan Yan, he immediately stepped forward to say hello, "Treasurer Duan, bring someone to look at the house?"

"Yes, shopkeeper Feng, how is the business?"

"Thanks to Shopkeeper Duan, business is going well!" Shopkeeper Feng said, looking at the plainly dressed Leng Han, Si Jin, Wu Shi Wu Man, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

While Duan Yan was greeting Shopkeeper Feng, Leng Han took a look at the street. It was about 20 meters long and had about five facades. It was very large and spacious, especially when there were many pedestrians inside and out.

"The shopkeeper is busy, I'll take Mrs. Leng to see the house!"

"Okay, okay, shopkeeper Duan, please!" Shopkeeper Feng said, moving away, letting Duan Yan lead Leng Han and others into the backyard.

After all, he rented this street shop on a daily basis, and the original contract was very clear. Once someone bought the shop and yard, he would immediately move the things out and let the shop out, and the contract would also be completed immediately. stop.

However, Shopkeeper Feng is not worried, because, looking at Leng Han's clothes, he definitely cannot afford it.

The house plus the street shop cost at least 3000 to [-] taels of silver, not a few hundred taels, otherwise he would have taken it long ago.

Entering the pavement is a large yard with a well and osmanthus trees.

"There used to be restaurants here, but the fierce competition dragged down the original store. He had no choice but to sell the house and return to the countryside!"

Leng Han looked around carefully before asking, "Was this a kitchen before?"

"Yeah, no, it's closer to the outer hall. Look, there's a gutter over there to lead the dirty water outside!"

Leng Han nodded, very satisfied.

Duan Yan led Leng Han and the others to the back again, pointed to the five rooms and said, "This is the inner courtyard, you see there is an attic, it's not a problem if there are about ten people living there, the most important thing is that there are The wall separates this yard from the backyard, once the door is closed and locked, no one else can get in basically!"

"Is there a backyard?" Leng Han asked.

"Of course there are. There are two rooms in the backyard where sundries are piled up, and there is also a stable where carriages can be parked. Madame, do you want to take a look?"

"it is good!"

After Leng Han finished speaking, he followed Duan Yan and walked towards the backyard.

The backyard is bigger than Leng Han imagined. There are several tall camphor trees planted in the yard. Under the camphor tree, there is a stone table and a few stone benches. Next to it is a stable. It is impossible to raise four or five horses. question.

"Ma'am, what do you think of this yard?"

"not bad, very good!"

Leng Han's unsparing praise made Duan Yan smile, "Madam, what do you think?"

"How much silver?" Leng Han asked.

Duan Yan looked at Leng Han, then at Sijin, Wu Shi and Wu Man who were obediently standing aside, and after thinking for a long time in his mind, he said, "Two thousand eight hundred taels, even the fee for transferring ownership at the Yamen and signing the contract, about Two thousand nine hundred taels!"

Hearing more than 2000 taels, Sijin clicked his tongue, opened his mouth into an O shape, and immediately stepped forward, holding Sijin's hand, his small face was full of dignity, and even his brows were tightly knit together, forming a Mountain character.

Leng Han looked at it, touched Sijin's face softly, and then said softly, "It's a bit expensive, can it be cheaper?"

"This……"

Duan Yan hesitated.

At the beginning, the price of this house was 600 taels, and he had someone repair it and paint and clean it. Originally, he thought that he could earn 600 taels. It can be seen that Leng Han and others wore it, but he insisted on holding it down and did not ask for a high price. 800 taels, calculated, he can only earn a few dozen taels of silver.

"Master Duan, is there any difficulty?" Leng Han asked.

Duan Yan nodded, "Madam, to tell you the truth, I really didn't make much money in this yard, less than 900 taels, so I really can't sell it!"
