Gu Yunxi asked Xiao Cui to put the buns away and walked straight into a dental shop.

When the shopkeeper saw Gu Yunxi coming in, he immediately smiled and greeted her warmly: "Hey, madam, are you looking to buy a servant or a farm or a shop?"

Gu Yunxi smiled, pointed to the busy street outside, and asked directly: "Boss, I want to ask you, are there any shops for sale on this street?"

The shopkeeper smiled and nodded hurriedly: "Shops? Yes, yes, there are several. I'll take you to have a look now?"

Gu Yunxi nodded slightly, and the owner of the pawnshop immediately told other people to look after the shop, and he personally took Gu Yunxi out to look after the shop.

Xiao Cui followed silently behind, observing the busy street and listening to the pawnshop owner talking to Gu Yunxi.

Gu Yunxi often takes her with him when he goes out, just to train her. In the future, the Lu family will get better and better, and the young master's official position will become higher and higher. By then, their Lu family will no longer be the small family it is now.

In the future, the mansion will have more and more interactions with other dignitaries, and the requirements for her as the manager of the inner court will become higher and higher.

She followed Gu Yunxi and learned a lot from Gu Yunxi's conversations with other people.

Xiao Cui has always been confused. Didn't the young lady say that she was a native rural girl? How come her gestures and movements don't look like she grew up in the village at all? Instead, she looks like a lady from a wealthy family!

Gu Yunxi ignored what Xiao Cui was thinking. She followed the pawnshop owner to the door of a closed shop. The owner opened the lock with a key and walked in first, and Gu Yunxi followed him in.

Xiao Cui was very cautious. She pulled Gu Yunxi and followed the owner of the pawnshop into the shop first. After seeing that there was nothing wrong with the shop, she felt relieved and followed Gu Yunxi.

Gu Yunxi smiled but didn't say anything.

Upon seeing this, the pawnbroker's shop owner muttered to himself, Gu Yunxi looked very unfamiliar to him, and he had no idea which family she was from or what her background was.

However, precisely because of Xiao Cui's loyalty to her master, the owner of the pawnshop dared not underestimate Gu Yunxi any more.

"Ms. Gu, look, this is the shop. Look how spacious it is. No matter what business you do, it won't feel crowded."

The owner of the pawnshop was very enthusiastic and kept guiding Gu Yunxi and introducing the shop to her.

Gu Yunxi nodded slightly, quite satisfied with the shop. However, the shop was at the end of the street, and the people coming and going were not as many as those going to the vegetable market.

"Boss, let's take a look at other shops." Gu Yunxi said with a smile.

The pawnshop owner nodded, closed the door neatly, and took Gu Yunxi to the second shop.

The second shop is located in the middle of the street, just on the left side of the entrance to the vegetable market. Almost everyone who goes to the vegetable market to buy vegetables enters and exits through here.

This location was surprisingly good. Gu Yunxi followed the owner of the pawnshop into the shop and after looking around the shop, he felt even more satisfied.

The kitchen in the back is also very large. If we buy it to open a bun shop, my mother-in-law can show off her cooking skills and she won’t feel the shop is crowded.

However, the price is almost half more expensive than the one at the end of the street.

The shop at the end of the street only charges five thousand taels, but this shop charges a full eight thousand taels.

Gu Yunxi asked the owner of the pawnshop to take him to see several other shops. They were also good, but none of them were located as well as the entrance to the vegetable market.

After thinking about it, Gu Yunxi gritted his teeth and negotiated the price with the owner of the pawnshop. In the end, after talking so much that his lips were worn out, he finally lowered the price of the shop he liked the most to seven thousand five hundred taels.

Before she came out, she had brought the silver bills with her. After negotiating the price, she was taken directly to the government office in Beijing by the pawnbroker to transfer the ownership and get the shop deed signed.

"Madam, this shop will be yours from now on. I wish you a prosperous business and abundant wealth in the future." The owner of the pawnshop smiled from ear to ear. This business trip was really easy.

You know, in the past he took customers around for many days, and even talked his lips dry, but he might not be able to close a deal.

But this time, the lady only looked at a few shops on this street and immediately wanted to buy this thing worth more than 7,000 taels. She didn't even blink when she took out the banknote. She was so straightforward!

This time, he received a commission of more than seventy taels! He was really rich!

Gu Yunxi smiled, waved to the owner of the pawnshop, took the key and handed it to Xiao Cui, then left.

"Xiao Cui, tell Mo San the key and the address of the shop later, and ask Mo San to find someone to renovate the shop. Madam wants to open a steamed bun shop."

"Also, go and order a plaque. The name... will be Lu's Steamed Bun Shop."

Xiao Cui hurriedly took the key to the shop and put it carefully in her arms. This shop was bought for more than 7,000 taels of silver. Xiao Cui had never seen so many silver bills in her life.

She only knew that this shop was very, very expensive and worth a lot of silver notes!

"Hey, don't worry, Madam. I'll go find Mo San when I get back later." Xiao Cui agreed with a smile. While she was speaking, Gu Yunxi had already brought her to the door of the embroidery shop.

Gu Yunxi quietly walked into the shop. The sharp-eyed clerk recognized her and hurriedly called out, "Boss Gu, you're here."

Then, the waiter shouted again: "Shopkeeper Wang, Boss Gu is here!"

The shop assistants all knew that this shop was jointly opened by Shopkeeper Wang and Madam Lu. However, Shopkeeper Wang had always been the shopkeeper, and the shop assistants were used to calling him shopkeeper directly, and were not used to calling him boss.

But it’s different for Madam Lu. It’s a rare occasion for her to come, so when she comes, they will definitely call her the host.

Moreover, they heard that all the creative ideas in the shop were from Madam Lu. The shop assistants looked at the amazing embroidery and admired Gu Yunxi very much. When such a great boss came to the embroidery shop, how could they not greet him warmly and show his face?

Gu Yunxi smiled but did not stop the guys. She saw Wang Jiaozhen walking towards her with a smile, so she also walked over with a smile.

"Yunxi, you're here." Wang Jiaozhen held her hand, very happy.

It happened to be afternoon and there were few customers in the shop, so she was free. When Yunxi came over, she also had time to tell Yunxi about the recent events in the shop.

"Take a look at the account book first. All the accounts since we opened are recorded here."

Wang Jiaozhen held a thick account book and handed it to Gu Yunxi, indicating that she should read it first.

Gu Yunxi smiled and returned the account book, saying, "Sister Zhen, I won't look at the account book. Just tell me directly."

Seeing her being lazy, Wang Jiaozhen couldn't help but smile and said, "You, aren't you afraid that I will falsify the accounts?"

Gu Yunxi shook her head firmly and said, "Don't employ someone if you doubt him, and don't doubt someone if you employ him. What's more, I trust Sister Zhen, otherwise I wouldn't have asked you to open an embroidery shop together."

Gu Yunxi's eyes were shining as she looked at Wang Jiaozhen, which made Wang Jiaozhen feel embarrassed. Originally, she just wanted to tease Yunxi, but she didn't expect Yunxi to trust her so much!
