Chapter 306 Prepare to prepare
After signing the documents and agreeing on a date to pick up the goods, Liu Dongjia immediately took out a silver note worth one thousand taels and gave it to Shi Liu as a deposit.
In fact, considering how familiar they are with each other now, it doesn’t matter whether there is a deposit or not.
But since Mr. Liu gave it to her, Shi Liu accepted it.
In the past, she didn't need such large silver bills because they were inconvenient to use, but now, it would be nice to have a few of these large-denomination silver bills.
Liu Dongjia was anxious to get the matter done quickly, so he didn't bother to stay for long. He asked Liu Quan to carry the box carefully and followed him, then he said goodbye and left.
Shi Liu negotiated the deal but was in no hurry to leave.
The waiter brought another pot of hot tea, and Pomegranate sipped it.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door.
Fu Dong went to open the door, then turned back and reported: "Miss, the head of Jiangzhuang is here."
Jiang Zhuangtou walked in, "Miss."
Shi Liu pointed to the seat opposite and asked Jiang Zhuangtou to sit there.
Jiang Zhuangtou sat down and said, "Miss, I have found a candidate. I think he meets your requirements, but you still need to take a look at him personally."
"Where are the people?"
"Please move to the window, young lady." said Jiang Zhuangtou.
Seeing that he did not bring anyone into the teahouse, Shi Liu couldn't help but glance at Jiang Zhuangtou, and couldn't help but smile as she thought of something.
Then he stood up and went to the window.
The street market below the window is bustling with people coming and going, and various stalls selling goods in an endless stream.
Just looking down from this window, there is a noodle stall not far away. At one of the tables, there are two people, one old and one young, eating noodles.
The older one faces the teahouse, and the younger one faces the teahouse.
"Girl, that's the one."
Shi Liu knew that this was the one without Jiang Zhuangtou telling her. The old Rongtou who brought him was from the village, and she had seen him before.
Jiang Zhuangtou also put some thought into it and had the man sit facing this side so that she could see everything clearly.
He looks to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. Not only is he strong, but he also has thick eyebrows and big eyes. He is very likable at first glance.
"Where did you find it? Is it reliable?"
Jiang Zhuangtou said hurriedly, "I bought him from a pimping shop in Zhangnan County. He was an orphan when he was young. Later, he went from street to street with people to perform acrobatics for a living. Last year, the troupe had an accident, and all of them were sold to the pimping shop owner. He is a stranger and has a good tongue. I have explained everything to him in detail. He doesn't know the girl, but he dare not not do his job well. We have the contract of sale in our hands."
Hearing this, Shi Liu nodded slightly, glanced at the young man again, and turned around, "Okay, this is him. Get ready and have them come to our door in two days! You watch over him personally and make sure nothing goes wrong."
Jiang Zhuangtou responded: "I understand!"
Although he couldn't figure it out in his heart, their girl was the one that hundreds of families were vying to marry, so there was no need to worry about her marriage, but the girl insisted on doing this, which was really incomprehensible.
However, as a servant, he should just obey.
The girl took this matter very seriously, so he had to come in person and not make any mistakes. After drinking tea and finishing his work, Shi Liu strolled to the specialty store on Lingshui Street to have lunch and visit his second brother.
She decided not to go to Tongwanzhai because her elder brother was at home.
When they arrived at the specialty shop, they saw Li Rongyu busy inside, weighing, calculating and collecting money. He was very busy, so Shi Liu took Fu Dong forward to help.
When the shoppers heard Li Rongyu calling her "Shi Liu", they immediately knew that this was the Shi Liu girl who fought against the bandits. They were immediately very excited, "Oh, you are the Shi Liu girl! You are so pretty and heroic. No wonder you are so powerful!"
"Aunt, the total is seventy-six cents, please take it!" Being stared at fiercely, Shi Liu almost couldn't stand it.
With such enthusiasm, after finally finishing the work, Shi Liu breathed a sigh of relief without leaving any trace. Then he asked curiously, "Second brother, why are you here alone? Where is my great uncle?"
Li Rongyu was using his abacus to record the accounts, saying, "Grandfather went to Jiu Tiao Lane! Something happened to Fatty."
When Shi Liu heard this, he couldn't sit still, "What happened to Fatty?"
Li Rongyu said hurriedly, "It's not a big deal. There's a young man who keeps coming to the spicy hot pot shop these days. Fatty's uncle and aunt are not good at talking. Fatty will ask her great uncle to help out today. When the young man comes again, he will be driven away."
Shi Liu was confused after hearing this, so he simply went to Jiu Tiao Lane to take a look.
Halfway through the journey, they ran into Li Jizu returning, "Uncle Ancestor!"
"Pomegranate, are you coming from the specialty store?"
Shi Liu nodded, "I heard from my second brother that something happened to Fatty?"
Seeing that she came for this, Li Jizu couldn't help but say, "It's not a big deal. I've already solved it."
After that, let’s talk about the matter.
It turned out that the son of an old tailor in a tailor shop not far from Jiu Tiao Lane had taken a fancy to Pang Ni. You would have said that if he liked her, he would have sent someone to propose marriage. However, this man had been married once before, and that wife died of complications during childbirth less than a year after she got married. So taking a fancy to Pang Ni was like marrying her again.
Who would want their daughter to marry someone else? It's not like they can't find a good family. So seeing that Pang Ni is capable of doing business independently and has her own ideas, they want to get closer to Pang Ni. If they can make Pang Ni like them, then it will be a piece of cake to propose marriage!
As soon as Pang Ni arrived, she heard the old customers of the shop talk about the background of the tailor's son. How could she be bewitched by him? Besides, even if she didn't know the background, she didn't like this man at all. But the other party couldn't be driven away or scolded. He was very thick-skinned and came every day. Pang Ni was very annoyed, but her uncle and aunt were not good at speaking and couldn't win the argument with this smooth talker.
Only then did they invite Li Jizu to come and talk things over with him as an elder. If he dared to come again, they would not be polite.
After hearing what happened, Shi Liu also understood, "Then, Grandfather, you go back first. I'll go to Fatty's for dinner."
It was dinner time and the malatang shop was doing pretty good business. The weather had cooled down and the hot malatang was popular again.
Shi Liu entered the shop and saw Pang Ni busy at work from afar. Knowing that Pang Ni was not affected by other things, he felt relieved and chose a seat at the innermost part.
Fatty, who was busy, felt as if someone was staring at her, so she looked outside and saw Shi Liu, who was sitting and smiling at her.
She subconsciously opened her mouth to shout, but immediately remembered that Shi Liu's name was now famous in the city. If she shouted, Shi Liu would surely be surrounded by the customers in the shop, and there would be no peace and quiet.
He waved at her, then quickly took the basket and picked up the vegetables.
Soon, he walked towards Shi Liu with a bowl of hot spicy hot pot.
"Try our new creations. This roast duck is boiled in here. It tastes really good. I picked out the best for you. Look at this big duck leg!"
Pomegranate grinned, "I'm really hungry, I'll try it."
