Chaos on the temples: You can't escape if you provoke treacherous ministers

Chapter 934 Bidding
Because Liu Yunxiang wanted to take Sanbao with him, he woke him up, put on his clothes and washed his face. When he came out again, the backyard was already full of people.

Yan Mu saw her and squeezed out from the front.

"Don't go in, the innkeeper is dead."

"Ah?" Liu Yunxiang was surprised.

"I fell into a ditch last night when I came home drunk. When I was found in the morning, I was already out of breath."

Liu Yunxiang sighed endlessly. If the boss had listened to the waiter's advice last night, this incident would not have happened.Through the gap, she saw a woman lying on the ground crying in grief. To this woman, it was as if the sky had fallen.

Life or death, no one can do anything.

The family checked out and returned to Nan'an Inn. Jiang Yuan had already hired someone to clean it.

"I also hired a cook and a waiter to take care of them for the time being. When the inn opens, I will hire a few more," Jiang Yuandao said.

"To open an inn, you have to go to the government to register and queue up to get a sign. According to the situation, if you want to open an inn, you have to wait ten or eight years, so we guess we won't be able to wait." Liu Yunxiang said.

"I'll go to the government office to register first in the afternoon and check the situation." Yan Mu said.

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "Okay, then I'll go down to the market to buy some daily necessities."

They plan to live in Liangshan County, no matter how long they stay, they will always buy some necessary things.

The cook, Aunt Chen, is a chubby old woman. She is from Darong and married to Beijin 40 years ago.

"Madam, don't worry. Although I have been living in Beijin, I can still cook Darong's special dishes. You will know when you try my cooking tonight."

The main thing she and Yan Mu didn't choose was the Three Treasures, because they were afraid that this little guy would be wronged.

The boy's name is Liu Jin, and everyone calls him Jin Zi. He is tall and strong, with dark skin. He looks like he has done heavy physical work. He is not good at words and looks like a simple and honest man.

Liu Yunxiang took Sanbao to the market to buy, but because he was afraid that he would not be able to carry it, he asked for gold.

"My family lives in this alley."

Because Liu Yunxiang asked Jin Zi where his family lived, when he walked to the alley, Jin Zi pointed in.

"My father died of illness when I was ten years old, and my mother raised me."

Liu Yunxiang understood, "Are you married?"

Jin Zi was a little shy, and the blush could be seen on his dark face, "Not yet."

"Then you must already have a sweetheart, right?"

Jin Zi smiled and scratched the back of his head, "Well, when we build a new house next spring and winter comes, I will marry her."

Why do these words sound so familiar?

At the market, he met a woman selling steamed buns. Jin Zi ran over to help her lift the burden from her shoulders. Liu Yunxiang then remembered that this was the woman who went to the inn to deliver steamed buns.

Jin Zi said something to the woman. The woman smiled and looked over at the same time.

Thinking of something, she hurriedly bent down to wrap a bag of buns and trotted over to deliver them, "My Jinzi is a stupid person, but his hands and feet are not stupid. He works hard. If he does something wrong, Madam, feel free to scold him."

"These are the mutton stuffed buns that I made myself. You and the young master can taste them. If you think they are delicious, I will often deliver them to your home."

Aunt Liu was so enthusiastic that Liu Yunxiang was a little embarrassed. After she took the bun, she gave Aunt Liu a piece of silver.Aunt Liu didn't want it, so she gave it to her anyway.

"This is too much." Aunt Liu said.

"I will pay the money first, and then if the child wants to eat it, I will ask the gold to be taken from home."

"Alright, alright."

Aunt Liu was very happy and called her son over, saying that he had found a good boss and that he must work diligently and not let the boss make mistakes.

"Mom, please go back and sell buns quickly. Madam has other things to do."

"Oh, I have such a mouth, I can't stop talking once I start talking. Madam, please go quickly. After all, Jin Jin will do both the light and heavy work. He has a lot of strength and can endure hardships."

Jin Zi pushed his mother back, and Liu Yunxiang breathed a sigh of relief. She was really eloquent.

After returning, Jin Jin apologized to Liu Yunxiang.

"It's okay. I think Aunt Liu is very nice." "My mother is very happy that I can find a job."

"Then where did you work before?"

"Loading and unloading cargo at the dock."

"Why don't you do it?"

"The manager owed me half a year's wages. I asked him for it, but he always refused, and then he fired me."

Liu Yunxiang frowned, "What about the wages?"

"Did not give."

"You didn't want to ask for an explanation?"

"There is a boat gang at the pier. The people in the boat gang are not easy to mess with. My mother was afraid that something would happen to me, so she decided to let it go."

"You can also report it to the official."

"My mother won't let me."

"Why?"

"She said that we ordinary people must stay safe, hide when trouble comes, and endure when being bullied. We must never offend those we can't afford to offend."

Liu Yunxiang shook her head and laughed. This was too frustrating, but she couldn't say anything.

After purchasing many daily necessities, Yan Mu and Jiang Yuan returned home.

"We have already registered, and there are hundreds of people queuing up in front of us. The government office only told us to wait, but we don't know when we will wait." Yan Mu said.

Liu Yunxiang had no hope at all, but in the afternoon of the next day, news came from the government, saying that the sign of Yunxiang Inn had been withdrawn, and asked them to prepare and go to the government office to bid tomorrow.

"Bidding?" Yan Mu didn't understand what he meant for a moment.

The official explained, "Right now, there are about a hundred people queuing up to get the sign, but there is only one sign, and the one with the highest price will get it."

This is correct and fair, but all walks of life have to bid for brands, so every year the government earns a lot of money just by selling the brands. Whose pocket does this money go into?

Yan Mu looked at Liu Yunxiang. Liu Yunxiang had obviously thought about this problem.But they couldn't figure out the situation, so they didn't ask any more questions.

The next day, the two got up early and went to the government office together.

When they passed by, there were already many people in the yard. Everyone had this sign in their hands, and they were all trying to figure it out, and no one paid attention to anyone else.

As soon as they came in, the officer checked their identities and gave them a sign.

"Just write how much you want to bid on this sign, and we will collect it later. We will open the cards on the spot and distribute the signs on the spot. It is absolutely fair and just."

Yan Mu took the sign, and he and Liu Yunxiang looked at it for a while. They really didn't know how much to fill in. After all, they had no experience.

"It goes up to 1 taels. If it's lower than this price, don't fill it in. It's useless if you fill it in."

Hearing this, the two turned around and saw a middle-aged man wearing a green robe with a mustache and a shrewd look. He looked like he was in business.

"1 taels!" Liu Yunxiang didn't understand, "Just to buy such a brand?"

"The brands are limited, so everyone who wants to do this business has to grab them. The price is getting higher and higher. The last time I bid, it was 800 taels. This time it will only be better, so I said 1 taels." "

"I only run the inn business, when will I be able to make money back?"

"The inn business in Liangshan County is still easy to do, and the capital can be recovered in three to four years."

Liu Yunxiang was silent for a moment, then looked at the others who were standing in their own places, not communicating with others, "Why did you reveal this to us?"

The man smiled and showed his sign, which read: 3000 taels.

"you……"

"To be honest, I don't have that much money, so I came here just to join in the fun."

Liu Yunxiang and Yan Mu discussed it and finally wrote down a number.
