Dress up as a farmer's wife from the Wang family and fight for the best with space

The man quickly disappeared.

Seeing the man leaving, Wang Jiaozhen said to Gu Yunxi: "Yunxi, you are really amazing. The price is one thousand taels!"

"But I don't know if the other party is willing to sell it at this price?"

Gu Yunxi smiled and said, “Sister Zhen, do you dare to make a bet with me? I think you will sell it to us!”

Wang Jiaozhen hesitated for a while, then smiled and said, "I still don't want to bet with you."

Lu Qingqing and Gu Yunle on the side covered their mouths and laughed. After a while, the stranger came back, followed by a middle-aged man.

"Manager Liu, these ladies want to buy the shop." The middleman introduced enthusiastically.

"Madam, this is the current owner of the shop, Shopkeeper Liu."

Gu Yunxi nodded slightly as a greeting to Manager Liu.

Shopkeeper Liu smiled and said: "I heard that you offered four thousand taels to buy my shop? Do you know how much a shop on East Street costs now?"

Gu Yunxi nodded calmly: "Yes, I know."

"I know you still..." Shopkeeper Liu looked surprised and wanted to continue speaking.

However, Gu Yunxi interrupted him directly and explained, "Manager Liu, I see that your shop has been open for a long time, but no one has bought it."

"As for the price, even if you put out 4,000 taels, there may not be anyone willing to buy it. I want to buy it because I don't mind, but I only have 4,000 taels in my hand when I come out of the capital."

"Take a look. If it can be sold, then we can sign and seal it today and pay the money. If you don't want to, that's fine. I'll look for another place."

Gu Yunxi was very calm, and gave people the impression that he didn't really want to buy the Ye family's shop.

Seeing this, the middleman became a little anxious and hurriedly advised: "Shopkeeper Liu, your shop has indeed been open for a long time, and no one has asked about it. Otherwise, four thousand taels is just four thousand taels, right?"

The middleman didn't know how much silver Manager Liu had previously mortgaged to the Ye family, but he knew that if Manager Liu sold it for four thousand taels, he would definitely not lose money.

The middleman also wants to make this matter happen. Only if the deal is done can he get the middleman's fee. Otherwise, he will get nothing and today will be another day of work in vain.

Shopkeeper Liu was very hesitant and struggled for a long time, pacing back and forth.

When Gu Yunxi saw it, she just smiled faintly and waited silently. She knew that even if shopkeeper Liu was not willing now, he would definitely be willing later.

However, shopkeeper Liu finally agreed: "Okay, then four thousand taels."

The man was overjoyed, and Gu Yunxi's lips curled up, it was really done!

The middleman was very familiar with the business of buying and selling shops, and he immediately asked someone to draft a sales agreement. Both parties signed and sealed it, and then went to the government office together to get the agreement.

After signing the deed, Gu Yunxi took the deed and the key to the shop, took out four silver notes worth one thousand taels from his pocket, and handed them to Manager Liu with a smile.

As for the middleman's fee, it was paid separately by Manager Liu and had nothing to do with her as the buyer.

Wang Jiaozhen was also very happy. Her and Gu Yunxi's names were written on the deed of the shop.

Although Gu Yunxi didn't say anything, she still planned to write an IOU to Yunxi after returning home.

Even brothers would settle accounts clearly, not to mention that Yun Xi and she were not sisters, so these financial matters had to be made clear.

After buying the shop, in order to celebrate, a few people walked around the East Street for a long time and bought a lot of embroidery products.

After arriving home, Gu Yunxi immediately told the good news to He Feng and Old Man Lu, but did not tell Lu Jianchuan for the time being to avoid distracting him.

He Feng was also happy for Gu Yunxi and Wang Jiaozhen. It was not easy for women. The courage of the two of them to open a shop together was commendable!

"Sister Zhen, let's write to Grandma Dong and tell her. I don't know if Grandma Dong can help us find out where to purchase the goods?"

Gu Yunxi took Wang Jiaozhen and went straight to find paper and pen to write a letter to Granny Dong.

Coincidentally, Wang Jiaozhen also wanted to write an IOU, so they wrote it together.

When Gu Yunxi finished writing the letter, Wang Jiaozhen had just finished writing the IOU. After pressing her fingerprints on it, she handed it to Gu Yunxi.

Gu Yun was delighted to see this and said angrily: "Oh, Sister Zhen, why did you write this? No, no, no, you are not someone else, I can trust you."

Wang Jiaozhen smiled and explained: "I know we have a good relationship and you trust me, but let's put it aside."

After saying that, Wang Jiaozhen handed the IOU to Gu Yunxi.

Gu Yunxi had no choice but to accept it.

After writing the letter, Gu Yunxi sealed it up, asked Xiao Cui to take it out, and asked a servant to deliver it to the Yongchang Marquis Mansion.

In the following days, Wang Jiaozhen continued to run out every day and became more concerned about the embroidery shop.

After all, she will be the shopkeeper of the embroidery shop from now on. She will be responsible for taking care of the shop, and Yunxi will be responsible for providing novel patterns.

Two days later, Granny Dong wrote back, saying that they had found some clues regarding the purchasing channels.

Grandma Dong has never left home once since she returned to Beijing. However, she still went out for Gu Yunxi and Wang Jiaozhen's embroidery shop.

Granny Dong was familiar with the family and took the two of them straight to Buzhuang near East Street. There, she met an old friend, Shen Feiyan.

Shen Feiyan was in disbelief. When she saw Granny Dong, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Sister Xiangyu, all of them died because of you. I don't believe it at all. Where have you been for so many years?"

Shen Feiyan is Granny Dong's junior sister, and it was Granny Dong who taught her embroidery. Shen Feiyan is full of gratitude towards Granny Dong.

However, Shen Feiyan's talent was limited and she could not learn to be as outstanding as Granny Dong. In the end, she turned around and became a cloth merchant.

"Fei Yan, don't cry. I'm alive and well, aren't I?" Granny Dong smiled and hugged her, trying to comfort her.

"Some things happened before. You must also know about it. I left the capital alone before I had time to tell you. Alas..."

Speaking of what happened back then, Granny Dong's eyes were full of loneliness. The situation was urgent at the time, and if she had not escaped from the capital, she would really be dead now.

Shen Feiyan choked with sobs, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, held Granny Dong's hand, and said angrily: "You wrote to me a few days ago. I almost thought someone was doing something weird!"

"Now that I have met you, I know that my sister is really alive. Just live, just live!"

Granny Dong patted her hand gently and said with a smile: "Well, it's good to be alive."

"By the way, Feiyan, these two are the family members of my...apprentice. They are planning to open an embroidery shop, the one I told you about in the letter."

Only then did Shen Feiyan notice Gu Yunxi, Wang Jiaozhen, and Gu Yunle standing beside them, and smiled sheepishly.

She just cried in front of the younger generations. It was really embarrassing and outrageous!
