Little lucky girl with supernatural powers in the farm, becomes rich in business and raises cubs

Chapter 111 Not enough money

"Hey brother, our Shun Kee Escort Bureau is famous in Kyushu, why is the General Bureau so small?" Zhai Er picked a piece of grass and chewed to pass the time, chatting with the bodyguards in the Shun Kee General Escort Bureau with a smile.

The bodyguard he spoke to was a standard northern man who loved to chat with people, so he picked up his conversation and started chatting.

"What's your name brother? I remember your shopkeeper called you Zhai Er, right?"

"Hmm."

"Brother Zhai saw that it was the first time he came to Yingdu, and he didn't know the characteristics of our place!"

"What are the characteristics?"

"Hey, that's why things are very expensive!"

"What kind of feature is this?"

"Look down, what's under your feet?"

"Bluestone bricks."

"Just one brick, one tael of gold!"

"Oh! Why are bricks so expensive? Gold inlaid with jade?"

"It's not the bricks themselves that are expensive, but the land under the bricks! In Yingdu, every inch of land is worth every inch of gold!"

Singing and harmonizing, the dialogue between the two people had a lively effect, making the airy Xiao Ruo feel like he was in the Deyun Society.

These two are here to talk about cross talk.

The northern man pretended to be mysterious, pretending to lower his voice and asked, "Do you know how much the land of our headquarters would be rented for a year?"

The voice was so loud that Xiao Ruo, who was five meters away, could hear it clearly.

Zhai Er was very conscientious as a supporter, and immediately asked, "How much money?"

The northern man stretched out two big palms to count.

"1 taels of silver?"

Although the price is high, it is only three times that of Qinzhou. I have already made psychological preparations, and Zhai Er thinks it is okay.

The northern man shook his head and smiled: "It's gold."

This really startled Zhai Er, the grass roots in his mouth also forgot to chew, and fell directly to the ground.

"Gold, gold?!" He stared wide-eyed, stammering and repeating.

It wasn't just Zhai Er who was stunned, Xiao Ruo who had been paying attention to the content of the chat between the two also felt tense.

She knew that as the capital of the country, the price of goods in Yingzhou would be much more expensive than that of Qinzhou, and so would the price of land, just like Beijing before its rebirth, every inch of land was expensive.

The family fortune accumulated by the Xiao family over the years can be considered wealthy in Qinzhou, but it is only meager in Yingzhou.

In this way, it seems that if they buy a small courtyard for a family in the West Market, they will probably lose their money, and it is impossible to rent a shop in the East Market to open a Cordyceps specialty store.

"Miss Xiao?"

She was so engrossed in thinking that Xiao Ruo didn't even notice that Fang Zhongxiao and Fang Zhongxiao had returned.

At this moment, Fang Zhongxiao has taken over the title of the chief treasurer, and has become the legitimate chief treasurer of Shun Kee Escort Agency.

The new official took office without three fires, he still smiled and looked kindly, and greeted the Xiao family's carriage to leave the headquarters with him.

"Let's go and settle down first. Shunji has several houses in West Market. I've inquired about them as residences for bodyguards. There is a private courtyard, which is just right for your family to live in."

Xiaoxun was Fang Zhongxiao who was going to train him to be a confidant, so he must enjoy some privileges with him, such as arranging the same residence, the housekeeper can give their family special preferential treatment, and arrange a single family, so they don't have to be crowded with other bodyguards.

Unexpectedly solved the accommodation problem, Xiao Ruo quickly thanked: "Thank you, the shopkeeper, I am worried about this."

"Hey, you're welcome, Xiaoxun is going to be the head of the bodyguard bureau in the future, so I can't let you have to worry about where to live." Fang Zhongxiao said with a smile: "Even if the land price in Yingdu is high, this yard will definitely not have you The big one in Qinzhou..."

"It's all right, the shopkeeper of Laofang has taken care of you."

When we got to the small courtyard, it was exactly as the shopkeeper said.

There are only five rooms surrounding a three-meter-square open space, which can barely be called a courtyard.

But the free house is still a single family, Xiaoruo is already very satisfied.

I thanked the shopkeeper again and again, and with the help of the coachman, the family unloaded the luggage and goods from the car little by little.

Fortunately, I brought everything I could bring with me when I left Qinzhou, and I don't need to buy any more belongings right now, I just need to put things in order.

Twenty boxes of Cordyceps would take up one room, and in the remaining four rooms, old man Cen and Zheng Dongyang offered to live in one room, and Xiaoxun one room.

Considering that the two cubs are already ten years old, it is not suitable to live in another room, and at the same time, in order not to disturb Xiao Zhao's study, Xiao Ruo lets Xiao Niao and her live in one room, and Xiao Zhao lives in the remaining room alone.

There was no spare room for a stove, so Xiaoxun simply built a small stove with wood in the yard, barely able to cook some home-cooked food.

After the dishes were ready, a small wooden table was set up in the remaining space in the yard, and the family of six sat around and had dinner.

The place is too small, and everyone is crowded for meals. Xiao Ruo is heartbroken to pick up food for everyone, and secretly vows to open the Cordyceps specialty store as soon as possible to make a lot of money. Fortunately, Yingzhou can also have a comfortable place for the Xiao family. Home.

Early the next morning, Jiang Ping knocked on the door and asked Xiaoxun to go to the escort agency together.

Xiaoxun originally planned to send Xiaozhao to the Imperial College with Xiaoruo.

Xiaoruo patted his arm to reassure him: "You and brother Jiang go to the bodyguard bureau, I will send Zhaozhao off, there are two adults at the Imperial College who have said hello in advance, there will be no problem."

Only then did Xiaoxun follow Jiang Ping and leave.

It is not difficult to send Xiaozhao to the Imperial College, just ask around and you will know the location of the Imperial College.

The two hired a sedan chair and arrived at Chenshi on time.

Xiang Shanyi and Yan Fang greeted each other early in the morning, and after the gate boy of the Imperial College confirmed that it was Xiao Zhao, he led him to meet the teacher.

The small sedan chair cost two taels of silver when they came here, and Xiaoruo was a little bit pained, so she planned to walk back slowly, and happened to be visiting the East Market to see if there was any suitable shop to rent.

It was just after Chen, it was still early, and there were many shops on the street that hadn't opened yet. Xiaoruo walked slowly along the street, and when she saw a shop that was open, she went in to look at the goods, chatted with someone, and inquired about the prices. and house prices.

Walking into a fan shop, the staff in the shop saw that there were customers, and hurried up to greet them enthusiastically.

"Miss, do you have a favorite fan? We have round fans, feather fans, jade fans, ox bone fans, all kinds!"

Looking around, fans are displayed on a rosewood base, just like works of art.

Xiaoruo pretended to browse along the display shelves casually, and asked, "What kind of fan is the most popular?"

The guy immediately recommended it to her: "Now the most popular among girls is the acacia fan. The shop's lacquered brocade acacia fan is famous far and wide. Look, the handle of this fan is made of ivory."

He pointed to an exquisite round fan and said, "Every fan in the Ni Jin Yun Brocade Acacia Fan Store is made by a famous artist, and you can take it away with only 300 taels, which is very affordable!"

300 taels of silver for a fan!Xiao Ruo's heart skipped a beat.

Keeping her mind steady, she pretended not to care and tilted her head to look at the ivory-handled acacia fan, and said casually, "It's only 300 taels, and if you don't sell hundreds of them a month at this price, I'm afraid it won't be worth the money for the shop." .”

The tone was light and light, as if he was full of dislike for this fan, thinking it was too cheap.

The folks in Yingzhou are well-informed, and they know what kind of guests will say what kind of words in their stomachs.

Hearing what Xiaoruo said, he knew that this person didn't buy the fan sincerely.

His enthusiasm was controlled freely, and his tone immediately became a little cold: "Did the girl come to make us happy early in the morning? I see that you have been shopping from store to store since just now. Did you come to find out the market?"

The buddy regarded Xiaoruo as a professional commercial wind agent, inquired about the prices of various stores and went back to sell news. What he just said was to inquire about the sales in their stores.

"If you're interested in our shop money, you might as well ask the shopkeeper directly." The clerk's face turned completely cold, and he put on a look that he was ready to leave.
