Chronicle of Farming in Muxianfu

Chapter 165 Deal (seeking pink)

At that moment, he ran out of the teahouse in a hurry, ran to Li Jiliang shop, and found Boss Li who was worried about not having enough money to buy goods. After saying this, Boss Li was overjoyed immediately, and hurriedly pulled him. If the yard can be sold, it must be Thanks a lot.The two rushed to the teahouse, exchanged a few words with Mu Ai, and then went straight to the east of the city.

When Mu Ai went to pick up Dayu and Xing'er from the ruined temple last time, she also passed by here, but it was getting late at that time, and she was wearing women's clothes again, so it was difficult to lift the curtain to take a closer look. Now that she walked past, she could see clearly The whole picture of this area.

Out of the city gate, all you can see is a low, dilapidated small adobe courtyard, with the sound of chickens and dogs barking from every corner, and the thin wooden poles in the courtyard are covered with frozen old wooden poles. Black and thin children in cloth clothes with a snot nose squatting and playing by the wall. Occasionally, people who came into the city with their shoulders on their shoulders would avoid the side of the road when they saw them in their bright clothes...

Mu Ai couldn't help but look back at the city gate that hadn't been away for a long time, that gate was like a barrier, separating the two worlds, inside the gate was prosperity and prosperity, and outside the gate was poverty and desolation.Boss Li has been secretly paying attention to her face. At this time, he thought she disliked the mess here, so he quickly said with a smile, "Mr. Mu, you don't know that although the people living here are poor, they have good character. My When the yard stored grain, no one ever came to steal it.”

Mu Ai smiled lightly, and replied, "Well, it can be seen that these people are very simple."

Boss Li chuckled dryly, and the few of them took another cup of tea, and sure enough, they saw two courtyards with three entrances beside the official road.They are all bluestone courtyard walls, gray tile roofs and ebony gates, very spacious.

Boss Li took the key out of his pocket and stepped forward to open the door to the courtyard on the left.It may be that it was intended to be used as a warehouse from the beginning. Once you enter the yard, it is much wider than ordinary houses. It can park three carriages side by side. The rest is the room for the coachmen and guards and a large kitchen that occupies a large yard across the yard.

There are two entrances and three entrances. There is no separation between the main room and the left and right wing rooms. It is specially designed to store food on weekdays.

Boss Li looked at Mu Ai wandering around, with a flat expression on his face, and felt a little bit bitter in his heart. He found a craftsman to build a yard at the beginning, which meant that it was for storing food, so all considerations were for ventilation and drying, and for storing goods.However, it seems a little too simple to sell now. Who wants to buy such an empty yard without even a tree? Thinking of the yard next to him, he has a headache even more. The record has been against him for many years, and the business is not competitive. He said that he chose one place to buy land and build a warehouse, and the yards were built in the same way, as if he was afraid of being worse than him.At the beginning, he still laughed at people learning from him, but now it is no longer ridiculous. He would rather that the boss could build more exquisitely, surpassing his yard, at least one can be sold today, and he can wait for money to help.

Liu Mancang followed Mu Ai, unable to guess whether Mr. Mu was satisfied, worried that he would not be able to earn such a fortune, so anxious that he stomped his feet, leaned forward and laughed, "Mr. Mu, are you satisfied with this house? Although the courtyard is a bit crudely built, the materials used are all solid and good things, and the courtyard has only been built for a year, and there is no damage at all."

Mu Ai nodded after listening, but still didn't speak.Liu Mancang and Boss Li looked at each other, but they didn't know what Mu Ai meant, so they could only bite the bullet and ask, "How about, Mr. Mu, let's take a look at the room next to it?"

This time Mu Ai made a sound, but she only responded with a simple word, "Okay".

Both Liu Mancang and Boss Li were gone, thinking to himself that Mr. Mu can really hold his breath, he is a master at negotiating business, Ouyang still looked around as usual, and made sure that there was nothing to climb around the courtyard wall, so he was safe and sound .When he came back, he saw the two people being forced by the wood wormwood like ants on a hot pot, and he felt a little admiration in his heart, this woman is really a born merchant, just by not talking, she can make the other party mess up.

Boss Li opened the courtyard on the right again. As expected, the layout is similar to the one on the left. The difference is that the main building in the third courtyard is more refined, and there is also a hall and interior room partitioned by green bricks. It is presumably used for the occasional small residence of the owner.

Mu Ai was very satisfied in her heart, she originally had other plans besides the medical center, and she also wanted to use such a compound, and now she bought them all together, which made her worry a lot easier.But the experience she gained when buying clothes and bargaining told her that no matter how satisfied she is with the goods, she should not show it, and she must pick out the faults.

So, he said lightly, "Boss Li, this yard is too simple. If I buy it, I have to find someone to rebuild it. It's a bit uneconomical. It's better to just buy the land and build it myself."

"Uh, Mr. Mu, this, this piece of land is good. I was afraid of food flooding at the beginning, but I chose the highest land nearby, and the bluestone, gray tiles, and wood used in this yard are all the best. Let alone decades, it’s fine to live for hundreds of years.” Boss Li was in a hurry and racked his brains to find the benefits of this yard.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Mu, the villain often walks around here, and he is familiar with this generation. To be fair, Boss Li's yard is indeed the best place in the neighborhood. It is high and sunny. You can see that it is only a few steps away from the official road, and it is only a cup of tea away from the city gate. There is no more convenient place to get in and out." Liu Mancang also hurriedly helped.

Mu Ai frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, raised the hearts of the two of them, and then asked, "How much money does Boss Li plan to offer for this yard? If it's not worth it, I'll find another place. It’s really not very satisfying.”

"Ah, Mr. Mu, you also know that such a yard costs 1000 taels of silver in the city, but since Mr. Mu is going to rebuild it, I will give up 100 taels to Mr. Mu. What do you think?" The boss adhered to the principle of asking prices all over the sky and repaying the money on the spot. He opened his mouth to quote the price. Liu Mancang stared at him and cursed inwardly. Boss Li is poor and crazy. The price here is so high, and it is still rumored to be a place to lose money?

After hearing the price, Mu Ai glanced around lightly, and walked out the door without saying a word, obviously dissatisfied with Boss Li's quotation.

Liu Mancang gave Boss Li a hard look, and hurried to catch up, saying, "Oh, Mr. Mu, Mr. Mu, don't go. The price doesn't suit you. We can talk again. Mr. Li is just quoting a price. Said that it must be sold at this price!"

"Yes, yes, Mr. Mu, don't leave in a hurry. I was confused just now and said the wrong price. Let's discuss it." Boss Li then rushed over and stopped in front of the door together.

There seemed to be a look of impatience between Mu Ai's brows, "Let's quote a real price."

Boss Li hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "500 taels! I only spent 700 taels for the materials. It couldn't be any cheaper."

Mu Ai turned around and looked at the house again, she still seemed a little dissatisfied, and said casually, "There are a lot of people I want to move here. The house is filled with goods in the front and people live in the back. It's still a bit crowded. I wanted to find a bigger one..."

Liu Mancang interrupted quickly, "Mr. Mu, this is easy to handle. You can buy both of Boss Li's yards. One is for people and the other is for storage. It is convenient and spacious."

Boss Li's eyes are also brightened. If the two yards are sold, he will be able to stockpile more food. When the price of food rises this summer, his shop will immediately come back to life.Immediately, he said immediately, "Yes, yes, if Mr. Mu buys both rooms, I... I can give Mr. Mu some more, one room is 500 taels, two rooms...950, no, 900 taels."

Suiyuan bought it for 800 taels at the time, which is much smaller than this yard. Now the two large courtyards only cost 900 taels, which is indeed very cheap.Mu Ai pretended to think about it for a long while before finally nodding and saying, "Okay, deal. Boss Li, I will send the steward to your shop in the afternoon to find you and go to the government office to work with you. Then I will hand over the money to you, of course. I have to trouble Master Liu too."

Liu Mancang was overjoyed, 900 taels, according to the rules, he was given 18 taels to moisten his hands, and the portion promised by Boss Li would be more than 30 taels, which is definitely a fortune.Immediately waved his hands and said, "No trouble, no trouble, if you need anything in the future, Mr. Mu, just find a villain."

Boss Li is also relieved. These two courtyards are his heart disease. He has a reputation of being bankrupt. They have been here for almost two years and no one cares about them. Now they are finally sold, and he no longer has to listen to other people's cynicism. .

Several people locked the door and went back to the city along the original road. Mu Ai bid farewell to the two of them and went to Shiweitian. It was the busiest time of the day for Shiweitian. Qingfengmingyuemu Sanmu Liu Du greeted the customers in the store, Mu Ai entered the store, waved his hand to let them not have to salute, briefly talked about the purchase of the yard, and then told Mu San and Mu Liu to take the money to Li Ji grain store in the afternoon.Mu San guessed that his mistress must have other plans, and immediately agreed.

Mu Ai was thinking about the children in Suiyuan, so she didn't stay any longer, she packed two boxes of freshly baked snacks, let Ouyang carry them, and then went back to Suiyuan.

It was almost noon at this time, and the children must be hungry. First, eat snacks to pad their stomachs, and then cook some delicious food to reward them. Mu Ai thought all the way into the yard, but in the hall there were only two brothers and sisters, Dayu and Xinger. While tracing red, pens and ink were thrown messily on the table next to her, but Simba and Cheng'er were nowhere to be seen.The smile on her face gradually faded. Originally, she told Chun Equinox and others not to supervise the children, and wanted them to develop a good habit of self-study, but...

Mu Ai stepped into the hall, Chun Equinox immediately put down the sewing basket, took the snack box in Ouyang's hand at the door and put it on the table.

When Dayu and Xing'er saw their mother coming back, they hurried forward to salute. Mu Ai picked up Xing'er, sat on the soft couch, and asked, "Has Xing'er been studying with his brother obediently?"

"Well, Mom, Xing'er is very good. She traced two pages of big characters and reviewed her pinyin. She also ate two pieces of snacks and drank a bowl of soy milk." The little girl happily counted all the things she had done to her. Mom listens.
