Border Cook

Chapter 577 Teeth
Xia Mingyue's reputation and prestige in Jinqiu County are now known to everyone and admired by everyone, especially those who work in the government office.

For this reason, when he was on duty and patrolling the streets on weekdays, he often liked to visit Xia Ji's various food stalls. In his heart, he felt that if he could take good care of Xia Ji's business, it would be as if he had done something useful for Madam Xia, and he felt proud of it.

Isn’t it an extremely glorious thing to be able to escort Xia Mingyue’s family and the people who helped her back to Xia Mingyue’s home now?

Zhuang Cui knew what the runners were thinking, so she didn't say much. She just thanked them and let the two runners follow her back.

Zou Shiliu, however, was too young to keep his thoughts to himself, so he just asked his sister, "Is this Miss Xia a very remarkable person?"

Since entering the yamen, the county lieutenant has been very polite to him, and mentioned that the county magistrate's promotion was related to Xia Mingyue. Even the yamen runners admired him from the bottom of their hearts...

Although Zou Shiliu has determined that Xia Mingyue is a very good person because of being rescued, it now seems that this good person is also a very powerful person?

I just don’t know how powerful it is.

Zou Shiliu's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, and the yamen runner beside him heard it clearly, and couldn't help laughing, "I can't say it's amazing, I can only say it's very amazing, but if you want to know how amazing it is, you have to listen to me and tell you in detail..."

The yamen runner talked for a while, and seeing that everyone was laughing, he slowly began to tell the story of Xia Mingyue from the time she founded Xia's business with a smile on his face.

From doing business to take care of poor families, to hiring family members of military families as workers, to organizing a vinegar workshop, he was recognized by the Queen Mother, who personally gave him the inscription "virtuous and kind".

The yamen runner used his eloquence and sweet talk to describe everything in vivid detail, and the eyes of the sisters Zou Shiyun and Zou Shiliu lit up like stars in the sky.

"Ms. Xia is truly a heroine." Zou Shiyun sighed repeatedly.

Zou Shiliu was much more straightforward. He just clapped his hands and laughed, "Madam Xia is an extremely powerful person. My sister and I are so lucky to have met Madam Xia!"

It was really a stroke of luck.

Zou Shiyun sighed repeatedly.

When she was first rescued from Ma San and his wife by Xia Mingyue and others, Zou Shiyun was a little scared, as if she had been bitten by a snake once and would be afraid of ropes for ten years. She was worried that the two sisters had just escaped from the tiger's mouth, but would fall into the wolf's den again and become the fat meat that people targeted again.

Now it seems that her worries were unnecessary. The two sisters were really hit on the head by good luck to have met someone like Xia Mingyue.

Can it be said that after so many years, the two sisters have finally come to the end of their hardships?
A mist rose in Zou Shiyun's eyes.

The next morning, after breakfast, Xia Mingyue began to arrange today's affairs.

The first thing was to hand over the sisters Zou Shiyun and Zou Shiliu to the Song family, and let her consider arranging some simple tasks in the central kitchen.

Then, as she had planned last night, she went directly to the dental clinic to find a suitable place.

"The price and other things are easy to negotiate. The main thing is that the land should be large and close to Xinghua Lane." Xia Mingyue stated her requirements very clearly.

As for whether the house is new or old, you don't have to worry about it.

After all, since we are planning to move this central kitchen out separately, we should plan it carefully and rebuild it, which will be more convenient.

The owner of the pawnshop attached great importance to Xia Mingyue's business. He immediately turned out all the houses that were listed in the pawnshop, selected similar ones, and examined them carefully one by one.

But after looking around, I found that there are some large areas, but there are really no large areas that are close to Xinghua Lane.

This made the pawnbroker very troubled. He scratched his head until it was almost bald the whole afternoon. In the end, he had to go out in person and knock on the doors of the houses near Xinghua Lane that matched the size of the land Xia Mingyue had described. "Would you like to sell your house?"

"Do not sell!"

"Hey, hey, hey, don't be in a hurry to close the store, the price is reasonable and fair, and the other party can pay immediately."

"I said I won't sell it!"

"I really don't think about it anymore. The price is really suitable."

"..."

"Hey, hey, hey, if you don't want to sell it, then don't sell it. What are you doing letting the dog out?"

When one door failed, the pawnbroker knocked on the door of another one.

"Dare to ask..."

"roll!"

"..."

He hasn't spoken yet, okay.

After half a day, the owner of the pawnshop got nothing. After another half a day of thinking, he decided to change his words.

Instead of asking the other party if they are willing to sell the house, ask them if they are willing to exchange houses.

Without adding any money, you can exchange your own house for a bigger house with more houses in the county, and you can choose the quality.

This explanation was obviously more acceptable, so after two days of running around, the pawnbroker finally found a spacious house close to Xinghua Lane that met Xia Mingyue's requirements.

The price offered by the other party was also very reasonable. This price was not only acceptable to Xia Mingyue, but also could satisfy her need to purchase a house elsewhere.

It can be said to kill two birds with one stone and it couldn't be more suitable.

The owner of the pawnshop was overjoyed and went to find Xia Mingyue happily.

After Xia Mingyue took another look at the house, she was very satisfied. She immediately prepared some silver and, with the help of a pawnbroker as the middleman, signed the transaction document and sent it to the government office for filing.

When the seller of the house learned that the buyer was Xia Mingyue, he couldn't help but complain to the owner of the pawnbroker, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that this was for Madam Xia?"

"Isn't it the same whether you say it earlier or later?" The pawnbroker was puzzled, and then he laughed, "To be honest, I'm a little afraid that if I mention Madam Xia's name, someone might raise the price."

After all, everyone has seen Xia Ji's business in the past two years, so they naturally believe that Xia Mingyue has made a lot of money and is a wealthy man.

"Look at what you said. Are we so heartless?" The seller curled his lips, very dissatisfied. "I might as well tell you something unpleasant. If I had known that this was the house that Madam Xia wanted to buy, the price would have been reduced by 10%, and I wouldn't have had to sit here and think about it for two whole days!"

Is that so?

The pawnbroker was stunned for a moment. "You mean, if I had mentioned Madam Xia when I was knocking on every door, I wouldn't have been pushed out by so many people?"
