Early the next morning, I went to the front hall first. The Xiao family had strict rules. Even if they had nothing to do every day, they had to calm down in the morning and evening. According to Yuan Yue, the family had nothing to do and insisted on paying homage to the old lady every day. , Let the family remember that the owner of this house is still this old lady.

But in fact, all the power of the Xiao family is in the hands of Xiao Nan's father Xiao Xiong.As for the affairs of the inner courtyard, Mrs. Xiao can ignore them if she can, but no one can shake Mrs. Xiao's status after all these years.

Yuan Yue sat at the back, and she herself felt that another lady would sit in the yard, and Mrs. Xiao was still talking: "The [-]th of next month is a good day, and our Duo'er is going to get married too. If you come and go again, it is inevitable that the big guys will help you."

Yuan Yue suddenly raised her head and looked at Xiao Duo.Counting the days, the sixteenth of next month, isn't it less than a month away?But in the final analysis, even though this Xiao Duo is Xiao Xiong's daughter, she was born of a concubine after all, so she probably won't make too much trouble.

Yuan Yue didn't take these things to heart at all, so she just let them go.

As usual, after Dingxing dispersed, Yuan Yue was arrested by Song Lin again, but unfortunately, Yuan Yue failed to make Song Lin fulfill her wish.After memorizing the family rules fluently, and doing almost all the etiquette, Song Lin felt that there was nothing she could do, so she let her go back at noon.

In the afternoon, Yuan Yue sneaked out, ready to go and have a look at the next shop.

There is only one main street in the entire city of Los Angeles. Although the other places are all side streets, you can tell which street has more people just by looking at it. However, there are also restaurants full of seats in some small alleys.

The shop that was about to be listed two days ago still had the words "sell" posted on it, so Yuan Yue took a look along it.

"What do you want to choose, my lord?" The shopkeeper knew that he was a young man from a wealthy family when he saw the person coming, so he went up to greet him.

Yuan Yue squinted her eyes and took a look. The store used to sell cloth, so it is estimated that the business is not doing well now, and it is also a small business, so it is not uncommon for it to fail.

"Is your store going to sell?" Yuan Yue deliberately asked the shopkeeper in a rough voice.

"Young master, are you interested?" The shopkeeper's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he walked out of the counter like a dog, and enthusiastically introduced to Yuan Yue: "The location of our store is not bad, but the business has been sluggish recently. It was still snowing two months ago, and there was no food to eat, let alone a few bolts of cloth.”

Yuan Yue thought for a while, she didn't know this, but it's only March now, the first two months should also be winter, right?Thinking like this, he continued to ask: "How much money does this shop cost?"

"Not too much, not too much. If you want to sell the goods, the young master will bring a total of 2000 taels of silver, what do you think?"

how?Yuan Yue remembered that when she was out shopping two days ago, Xiao Nan told her that 300 taels of silver would be enough for this store, but now it's 2000 taels. I'm afraid this store is too open?

"I don't do the cloth business, I don't want the goods, I just want this store," Yuan Yue squinted her eyes, and looked at the shopkeeper: "The shopkeeper, I also understand, if you say a number that I am satisfied with, maybe I will buy it." Just bought it."

The shopkeeper smiled obsequiously as soon as he heard it, and bowed slightly to Yuan Yue: "My lord, if you refuse to buy these goods, we won't be able to sell them, right? Do you want to think about it again?"

Yuan Yue is not stupid, these people are all businessmen who do nothing but profiteering, she originally only wanted to open a dessert shop, she didn't plan to buy such a cloth shop.Besides, the location of this point is not too good. Although it is on the main street, it will take two steps to go out of the city. Whoever has nothing to eat has a snack and has to walk to the edge of the city.

After thinking for a while, Yuan Yue frowned and turned to leave.

"Hey, young master, don't go, let's discuss it." The shopkeeper slandered Meixiao standing at the door of the shop, stretching out one finger with his left hand and five fingers with his right hand: "How about... this number?"

One thousand five hundred taels?Yuan Yue remained calm, with her arms folded in front of her chest: "Shopkeeper, it's boring for you to do this." Then she looked at him a few more times and walked towards the door of the store.

"This... young master wants to buy a shop?" Someone asked at the door, but Yuan Yue walked with her head down and didn't see it. Only then did she see someone blocking the door and looked up.

That person looked at Yuan Yue with a strange look, as if he had seen something interesting, he looked like a talented person, but it only took a few more glances to see that this person must have no good intentions.

"What does it have to do with you?" Yuan Yue looked at the man in front of him cautiously, and he didn't look like a good man.

The man raised his eyebrows and smiled: "How do you know it has nothing to do with me?"

It was only then that Yuan Yue noticed that the shopkeeper behind him had changed his face. It could be seen that the man in front of him should be the owner of the shop.Yuan Yue took another look: "Is this store yours?"

The man walked a few steps into the shop, called the shopkeeper, "Go make tea," and then turned to Yuan Yue, "Is Mao Jian okay?"

Yuan Yue nodded, she didn't have any opinion, and then followed the man back into the shop, but the man didn't stop, but walked towards the small room at the back, not forgetting to look at Yuan Yue and lead her in.

Unexpectedly, there was something special in the small room inside. Looking at the decorations around, Yuan Yue knew that the store would definitely not be listed because it couldn't sell.

The shopkeeper knocked on the door. The man stopped and called him in. He waited for the shopkeeper to leave before continuing to speak: "Miss, are you interested in the shop?"

Yuan Yue was taken aback for a moment, and immediately recovered her female voice, and nodded: "But I don't think your shopkeeper seems to have such a meaning?"

The man laughed: "I wonder if the girl is sincere?"

"Since I'm sitting here, do you still feel that I'm not sincere?" Yuan Yue chuckled twice: "I just don't know if you really want to sell?"

"How much is the girl willing to pay?"

Yuan Yue frowned slightly, she didn't want to show her low price, so she immediately smiled: "Of course, the lower the better."

The man laughed twice: "The girl is really smart."

"Each to each other." Yuan Yue also responded in this way, and the word shrewd is not used in this way.

"Forget it, if the girl intends to buy this shop, I can offer 1000 taels of silver, how about it?"

1000 taels, what she said was really calm, Yuan Yue frowned, and checked her current money, only 400 taels.

"800 taels!" Yuan Yue lowered the price again. Although she felt that this price was impossible, she still had to work hard. If she succeeded, she could spend a little less money.

"In my humble opinion, the girl doesn't want to buy it, right?" The man was also a little angry, and put on a gesture of seeing off the guests: "Seeing that the girl is dressed like a rich family, I'm afraid I'm joking?"

Yuan Yue pursed her lips: "Then... 850 taels?" She really has no money, and Xiao Tao found a pair of clothes worn by Xiao Nan.

"1000 taels, not one less."

"900 taels! One point can't be more!" Yuan Yue also struggled, this place is very out of the way, if she was not in a hurry to open a shop, she would have already checked in the city to see if there was a suitable place.

The man hesitated for a moment, and finally waved his hand impatiently: "Girl, if everyone is as smart as you, I probably can't do this business. 900 taels, but I have one condition!"

Yuan Yue raised her eyebrows slightly. Seeing him sit down again, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Since the young master has a request, then I also have a request. Why don't we talk about it?"

"Puchi..." The man still laughed helplessly: "You girl, you are really weird, okay, let's talk about it first."

"I only have 200 taels of silver, so if you agree, I will pay the 900 taels in three installments, the first installment is 200 taels, the second installment is 300 taels, and the third installment is 400 taels. Arrears, how about it?" Yuan Yue was also undecided, but she could still earn back in a month, so she just wanted to give herself a buffer.

"The girl really knows how to count."

"I see that the 900 taels of silver should not be short, my lord, and I won't lose your money either." Yuan Yue stared at him with blazing eyes.

The man smiled slightly: "Then I also have a request, but I haven't figured it out yet, I wonder if the girl can owe it first?"

Yuan Yue raised her eyebrows slightly. If she agreed to him and was coerced into doing something in the future, wouldn't she be at a disadvantage?

Only thinking like this, the man said: "I will not do anything against the law, and I will respect the girl's opinion. What does the girl want?"
