Chapter 33 Confirmed
Yu Wan saw that there was a mountain behind the village, and the direction was Daqing Mountain, which should be connected. She was still satisfied, and the three of them returned to Yahang.
The three of them sat down and the boy immediately served tea.
"How's it going? Miss Yu," shopkeeper Wu asked very anxiously. He saw Yu Wan again and again without asking any questions. He was in a state of confusion, wondering what she was thinking.
"Well, it's okay. How much money did the village sell for, whether the village's procedures are complete, and whether the owner of the village has used the village as a mortgage or anything else."
This Zhuangzi looks good. Why is the host so eager to take action? She is afraid that there is something ulterior in between.
When Shopkeeper Wu heard this, he thought that this little girl looked young and was quite sophisticated in her work.
"Don't worry, Miss Yu, there is nothing wrong with this village. It's clean. The main reason is that the owner has many sons. To support his son's education, he sold this village."
"Zhuangzi is full of fine farmland, with ten taels of silver per acre, which is exactly one thousand acres, and ten thousand taels of silver."
Yu Wan frowned. The price was too high. In the town, it was eighty taels of silver per acre. It was twenty taels of silver per acre. It was a bit expensive.
"Shopkeeper Wu, this price is too expensive if the owner wants it." This means that if your dental shop adds it yourself, you can lower the price yourself. Bullying her for being a little girl who doesn't understand the market? Two thousand taels. In the countryside, a family cannot earn these two thousand taels in a lifetime. Shopkeeper Wu has a big appetite and looks ugly when he eats.
Shopkeeper Wu: "This..."
Yu Wan: "I only have eight thousand taels to pay, and I want to buy a house on Anping Street. You see, if you make the decision, I will go and look at the house. If you like it, we will buy it together."
"Hiss", shopkeeper Wu took a breath, this little girl wants to buy a house.
But when he was about to speak, Yu Wan spoke again.
"Shopkeeper Wu, if you have a shop suitable for a restaurant, I'll take a look."
"Puff puff puff", shopkeeper Wu was so shocked that he choked on the tea he drank.
Shopkeeper Zhang was sitting there drinking tea, not surprised at all.
"Yes, yes, yes." Shopkeeper Wu stood up immediately, ignoring his embarrassed look.
Shopkeeper Wu immediately took out his book and flipped through it: "There are two houses for sale on Anping Street, and a three-story restaurant for sale on Hongfu Street, which happens to be in the downtown area. The previous owner also failed to open a restaurant. This restaurant has been closed down. Don’t worry, the owner asked for a low price. The business was not good after it was renovated and opened for a month. It has been in our store for a long time and has not been sold. They are anxious, they also need to recover funds for turnover, so the price is not high."
Yu Wan nodded: "Okay, let's go and take a look."
Shopkeeper Wu immediately drove a carriage and took Yu Wan to visit three places. He could no longer underestimate this girl now.
After checking the time in the afternoon, Yu Wan finished reading the three places.
Back at Yahang, Yu Wan picked ten more people to buy together.
This trip was really worth it. When Yu Wan saw the restaurant for the first time, she fell in love with it. The decoration was new and antique. The lobby on the first floor received ordinary guests, and all the rooms on the second and third floors were It's a private room.
The entire restaurant has red brick walls. The entrance to the lobby on the first floor is the cashier, and the lobby is surrounded by green plants. It's just that no one has taken care of it for a long time, and half of it is dead.
A table is separated by a pillar in the middle, and there is a place to hang a lamp on the pillar.
Next to the counter is the stairs, and under the stairs is the door into the kitchen.
The layout of the second and third floors is the same. Each private room is equipped with different curtains and curtains, ranging from simple and elegant to noble...
The tables, chairs and benches are also new, the kitchen and warehouse are very spacious, and there is a small courtyard on the second floor at the back where people can live.
As for the house on Anping Street, Yu Wan is interested in a four-in-a-yard building, which is much larger than the ones in the town. It is 70% new and has four small gardens. There is also an open space in the backyard, suitable for Yu Haoran and the others to practice martial arts. It is also very close to Mr. Shen’s school.
"Miss Yu, have you decided? When we went out to look at the restaurant, the boy went to ask the owner of the village if he could sell it for eight thousand taels," shopkeeper Wu asked.
There's nothing wrong with saying that money can make the world go round. Look, shopkeeper Wu is so efficient at doing things right now.
Regardless of whether the price was what the owner wanted, shopkeeper Wu dealt with it immediately.
"Well, I want both. I can't sign the contract today. I'll give you the banknote first, and I have to go back to the house to clean."
"Okay", shopkeeper Wu agreed readily, he couldn't ask for more.
Shopkeeper Zhang was smiling all the way, and he felt relieved when he saw that the matter was done.
"Miss Yu, let's stay at the inn tonight. It won't be too late to clean tomorrow."
"It's okay, there are still shops that are not closed now, and you can still buy things." It was really embarrassing to live in an inn with ten people, and they all looked sallow and thin, and their clothes were shabby.
So Yu Wan gave 16,600 taels of silver notes (8,000 taels for Zhuangzi, 7,000 taels for the restaurant, and 1,600 taels for the house) to shopkeeper Wu, and then took the key.
She selected Xiao Bo, who had been the steward, from among the ten servants, gave him the key and two hundred taels of silver to buy things and went back to the house.
After Xiao Bo took the people away, Yu Wan said to Shopkeeper Zhang: "Shopkeeper Zhang, thank you for bringing me here. Do you want to go back tomorrow or stay a few more days? I may stay here for ten days and a half."
Shopkeeper Zhang said with a smile: "Miss Yu is busy with you. I'll check on my son later. I'm going back tomorrow, and I need someone to guard the dental shop."
Yu Wan knew that they had something to do and wanted to say, "Then I'll leave first while you are busy."
"Hello, Miss Yu. If you need anything, you can come to the pawnshop to find me directly. I'll send it to your house tomorrow." Shopkeeper Wu immediately sent Yu Wan out.
"Okay, Shopkeeper Wu, please go back."
Yu Wan was strolling leisurely on the street alone. She had been in this world for almost ten days, and she had never been so leisurely as she is now.
She had never been leisurely in her previous life, and she had never been idle since she came here. When she had some free time in the future, she would still walk around. Being a traveler here is really worthy of the name.
This county town is indeed big and prosperous. The streets are full of neat rows of antique and exquisite buildings. The road is paved with bluestone slabs, flat and smooth. The buildings are made of red bricks and blue bricks. Each building has blue tiles, and various animals are carved on the eaves.
It only takes half an hour to get from the pawnshop to the house on Anping Street. At this time, there are only a few pedestrians on the street, and they are all in a hurry.
Yu Wan also quickened her pace.
Yu Wan arrived outside the door. The lights in the city had just been turned on. Lanterns were hung under the eaves of every house to facilitate the arrival of people who came home late.
"Knock knock knock", Yu Wan knocked on the door. It was Uncle Shu who opened the door. She specially chose him to be the doorman.
"Miss, you are back. Come in quickly", Uncle Shu hurriedly asked Yu Wan to come in.
