Lucky husband

Chapter 223 Look at the pavement again

After buying more than 200 catties of purple potatoes, Li Chengli's heart gradually settled down. Now that the seed potatoes have been bought, he has no room for regret. When the spring plowing begins, he will take good care of these purple potatoes that can be sold at a high price, and strive to save more this year. money!

Li Chengshi breathed a sigh of relief after observing it for two days. The second brother bought seed potatoes and came back. Brother Jin didn't have any more dreams. It seems that there should be no problems. At that time, we can collect more purple potatoes.

The three brothers tacitly did not tell the old man Li and the old lady Li about Li Chengli's purchase of purple potatoes, because the price of seed potatoes was high, and they were worried that the two old people would be worried if they knew about it.

Since it cost a lot of money to buy seed potatoes, and there was still a short time before spring plowing after the Chinese New Year, Li Chengli put his son with his parents and went to the county every day to find odd jobs, trying to earn the money back as soon as possible.

Li Chengshi's vacation came within two days. He packed his bags and said goodbye to his family and went back to the county seat. Every year after the end of the year, the county government would have a backlog of affairs to deal with, and he was still busy.

On the second day after Li Chengshi returned to the county office, a sincere boy who had never contacted Li Chengzhi came over. The boy who came over looked like he was in his 20s. He introduced himself as Qiao and named Yue, and asked Li Chengzhi to call him Xiaoyue. Can.

Of course, he came to Li Chengzhi not to ask Li Chengzhi if he still wanted to buy a shop, but to tell Li Chengzhi that a customer had registered and sold a shop that met his requirements, and asked Li Chengzhi if he wanted to take a look.

"No. [-] Zouma Street?" Li Chengzhi felt that the name was inexplicably familiar.

Qiao Yue said with a smile on his face that was easy to make people feel good about: "Brother Li, do you remember the last time you went to our honesty shop, when our shopkeeper introduced you to three shops for rent, one of which is The first shop is located on Zouma Street, of course that shop has been rented out now, not far from No. [-] shop."

After finishing speaking, Qiao Yue began to introduce the situation of the No. [-] shop on Zouma Street. Coincidentally, the owner of this shop also sold the shop for his son. His son was admitted to the government school in Fucheng, and he planned to sell the shop. Go to Fucheng to set up a small courtyard for my son.

Hearing Qiao Yue's words, Li Chengzhi's first reaction was suspicion. The main reason was that the surname Liang years ago also said that his son was going to Zhoucheng to study and the family only sold the shop. Now a shop came out to sell to his son in Fucheng It was hard for him to easily believe that he bought a house.

People who are babes are very good at reading people's faces. Qiao Yue also knew that a person surnamed Liang cheated the buyer of the deposit. Seeing that Li Chengzhi didn't believe it and didn't mind, he explained with a smile: "The owner of this shop is named Jin , Boss Jin’s family is quite rich. Not only does he own several shops in the county, but he also has many shops in various towns in our county. If he didn’t buy a house in Fucheng for more than 200 taels of cash, he would not sell the shop easily. I heard from the shopkeeper that brother Li's younger brother works in the county government office, if you don't believe me, you can check it out."

The Jin family belongs to an unremarkable family in the county town, but they are actually quite rich. Their family has accumulated a lot of assets through business for generations. In addition to the shop, they also have Zhuangzi and land outside the city. The development of the state city or the prefectural city has remained in Changping County.

Selling the shop this time was an accident. Houses in Fucheng are much more expensive than those in county towns. You can buy a good first-entry house in the county for two hundred taels. 500 taels, but a bigger house is cheaper.

What Boss Jin wants to buy for his son is a two-entry house. The house is already optimistic, 700 taels. This amount is not a lot for the Jin family, but he needs money to turn around in business, and the family can only take out more than 400 taels for the time being. There is still a shortfall of more than 200 taels of silver. Boss Jin didn't want to ask others to borrow it, so he thought of selling a shop.

The other shops in the Jin family are much bigger than the one on Zouma Street, not to mention that they are not easy to sell in a short time, and Boss Jin is also reluctant to sell, and the shops in the town are not that valuable, so you have to sell two or three to make up for it. The quantity was enough, so after some selection, he decided to sell the small shop at No. [-] Zouma Street.

Qiao Yue inquired about all these, but he didn't tell Li Chengzhi all of them, he just needed to clarify the situation of this shop.

They pay attention to sincerity in doing business with sincerity, and they will not speak indiscriminately without knowing it. Since he dared to say this, he was confident that what he said was okay.

In fact, Li Chengzhi didn't mean that he really didn't believe it, it's just that something happened just now and he heard about the same reason, so he subconsciously doubted it. Since Qiao Yue, who is sincere and childish, is so confident in them, he will believe them for the time being. , go to the shop first.

There are three relatively large streets next to the south gate, namely Zouma Street, Xishang Street and Judu Street.

Among the three streets, Zouma Street is the closest to the south gate, because it is close to the city gate, and the popularity of the three streets is also the most prosperous, and the shops on this street are not that big, they are all small and medium-sized shops, and there are no big ones. The big signboard of the shop blocks such problems of the small shop.

In addition, the shops on Zouma Street are sorted according to the distance from the south gate. The smaller the serial number, the closer to the city gate, so No. [-] Zouma Street is very, very close to the south gate.

Going through the information in his mind, Li Chengzhi was already satisfied with its location before going to see the shop.

This shop used to sell wine. Although everything in the shop had been cleaned up, there was still a smell of wine after walking in. Li Chengzhi couldn't help being intoxicated before he began to look at the shop seriously.

Because things have been evacuated, the shop looks clean and tidy, and you can also intuitively see how old the house is. The walls were originally repaired with bluestone, and it has been used for almost 13 years. There is basically no change. The tiles, beams and columns also look good, no problem.

Also, this is a relatively square shop. Li Chengzhi roughly estimated that after planning the stove, four rectangular tables can be placed in the shop, accommodating up to 24 guests to eat rice noodles at a time. Enough for a small rice noodle shop.

To be honest, no matter which aspect is compared, this shop is much better than the previous Liang's shop.

After viewing the shop, Li Chengzhi asked Qiao Yue the price of the shop, and he thought it should not be less than 300 taels.

Li Chengzhi's intuition was correct. Qiao Yue said that the selling price set by Boss Jin was 310 taels. He probably saw that Li Chengzhi was very satisfied with this shop. He whispered something, saying that the price was more reasonable. If you want to buy it, you should talk to Boss Jin.

Li Chengzhi was very satisfied with this shop. Since he planned to buy a shop at the beginning, he took advantage of his free time to visit all the shops in the vicinity. Unlike at the beginning, when he was blinded and didn't know anything, after getting to know a lot of shops, he knew that this shop was not bad at the first sight.

Therefore, Li Chengzhi directly told Qiao Yue that the shop was jointly bought by the two of them, and he would go to his brother at noon to come over and take a look at the shop. If there is no problem, he hoped to have an interview with Boss Jin directly in the afternoon, and he would close the shop today. given down.

It is true that the shop was jointly bought by the two brothers, but the purpose of Li Chengzhi to find Li Chengshi was not only to let Li Chengshi come to see the shop, but also to let him check the household registration file of Boss Jin in the county government. Is his son really going to Fucheng government school to study?

If there is no problem with Boss Jin, they will look at the shop again, and if Li Chengshi is also satisfied, they will buy the shop.

Qiao Yue understood the implication of Li Chengzhi's words, buying a shop is not a casual thing, of course one should be cautious, he smiled, and told Li Chengzhi that he could go to Chengxin Yahang to look for him at any time to look at the shop.

At this time, the business of the rice noodle stall was relatively not that busy, Bai Xiuhe and Li Caoye barely managed to get through, Li Chengzhi and Qiao Yue left and immediately rushed to the county government.

Today is the first day after the county government started work, and Li Chengshi was still getting back to the feeling of doing business. He had just finished a few things when he heard that his elder brother had come and asked him to go out for a while.

It was not easy to get back the feeling, Li Chengshi finished what he was doing before getting up and going out.

Li Chengzhi couldn't wait outside, and when he saw his younger brother coming out, he immediately pulled him aside: "Third brother, just now the sincere and childish people came and took me to see a shop, which is located at No. 310 Zouma Street, selling [-] Two, the owner of the shop is surnamed Jin, who seems to be a wealthy family in the county. The man said that his son was admitted to a government school in Fucheng. He sold this shop to buy a house for his son in Fucheng. If you have time this morning, please check it out. Check the situation of Boss Jin, if there is no problem, let's go to the shop again at noon, it is best to make a decision today."

Although Li Chengzhi spoke in a hurry, Li Chengshi heard it clearly. The location at No. [-] Zouma Street is good, and the selling price is reasonable. There seems to be a big family named Jin in the county.

After going through the information in his mind, Li Chengshi nodded: "Brother, I will check Boss Jin's household registration file in a while. If there is no problem, I will go to find you during the lunch break."

Knowing that the third brother at the county government office was very busy, Li Chengzhi didn't pull him too much and said: "Okay, then I won't delay your work, go back and get busy, and see you at noon."

After speaking, Li Chengzhi ran away. In fact, not only the third brother was busy, but also the rice noodle stall. He had to go back quickly. He had to go to the shop again at noon later. If he liked it, he had to go home immediately to pick it up. Yinzi, maybe he won't be able to work at the stall since noon.

Li Chengshi, who returned to the county government office, was always restless when he sat back in his seat to do things. He kept thinking about the shop and Boss Jin that his elder brother said, and he didn't read a word for a long time, so he just put down his hands. pen, turned around and went to the household room.
