Farmer's Ruyi Manor

Chapter 522 Buying an Inn (2)
Looking at the old man, who was nearly sixty years old, Sun Meixiang murmured in her heart: "Could this be the owner of the inn? Why do you come out to do business at such an old age?"

"Yes old man, are you going to sell this?" Sun Meixiang still showed respect regardless of what the other party said.

"It is for sale, but you have seen my inn. Although the location is a bit remote, it is still very close to the city gate, and there are many guests coming and going in this area. Therefore, my asking price is not cheap... ..."

Seeing the old man rambling about, bragging about his inn, Sun Meixiang couldn't help thinking.She knows this, when she wants to increase the price, she will put her own things on the shelves, some of which are not, and talk nonsense.Even if it is a disadvantage, it will become an advantage.

"Old man, in a word, how much do you want to sell?" Sun Meixiang actually knew that she couldn't afford it at all, so she asked, just to let herself have an idea and a goal.

"Well, if you want to sell, give me 2 taels of silver a year for rent. Compared with any one on this street, I don't know how much cheaper. If you want to buy, then give me 20 taels of silver at once. , although my inn is old, but the location is good, it can be quiet in the middle of the noise."

20 taels of silver?Sun Meixiang didn't expect it to be so cheap. There were no shops that would sell it a year ago, and they wanted to take advantage of this time to make a fortune, usually after the New Year.

But looking at the current situation of this store, it's already this time, and there are not even any customers.It's really not good, which business outside is not booming.

"I don't know why the old man wants to sell this inn?" This is very important, even if she has enough money now, she doesn't expect to cause a lot of trouble.

"I'm getting old, and my son wants to pick me up to celebrate the New Year in the capital. This is also a temporary decision. I'm old and I've been messing around all my life, but I haven't seen any improvement in this inn. I want to get up before the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month. It's been two days, so I quickly dealt with it."

Sun Meixiang was relieved when she heard that the old man was polite and seemed to be a well-mannered person.

So they discussed and said: "Old man, can you see if this works? I only have ten taels of silver, and my life is hard. My husband died in the early years, my son died the year before last, and my daughter-in-law also ran away at the beginning of this year. I am alone with two grandchildren. Do you think you can sell me for 10 taels of silver?"

Sun Meixiang played the emotional card. She knew that when she was old, she valued family affection even more.What I said was nothing more than to win his sympathy.

Besides, looking at this old man, he doesn't look like a poor man, and he shouldn't be short of 20 taels.I'm so old, and I'm still tossing about these things, the picture should have something to do.

Otherwise, with the current time period, such a business would have already been drinking the northwest wind.

"Hey... also a poor child. I lost my wife in my early years and raised a son to grow up. I can also understand what you said. The saddest thing in life is that a white-haired person gives a black-haired person. Forget it, I I don’t lack the silver, so I’ll sell it to you for 8 taels. It’s just that you come over tomorrow to go through the formalities, and by the way, bring your two grandchildren over for me to have a look.”

The old man also wanted to know whether what she said was true or not.It's one thing to ask the grandson to come over tomorrow, and I can ask someone to investigate the situation this afternoon.

"Okay, thank you old man, then I'll come over at six o'clock tomorrow, okay?" Sun Meixiang didn't expect such a success, as if she was still in a dream, such a big inn, although it was a bit broken.This 8 taels of silver can be done?
"Well, no problem. But what should I call you? Can you tell me where you live and what is your name?" The old man wanted to find someone to investigate the situation.

Although he is old, he is not short of those silver coins.But after all, he has struggled for this inn for many years, and he also has feelings for it.If it comes across a person who cheats and deliberately deceives himself like this, then it is not a matter of eight taels of silver.

At that time, even if it is 800 taels of silver, he will not sell it.

At the dinner table in the evening, Sun Meixiang was discussing major issues.

"Aunt Sun, do you mean that you are going to buy the inn now?" Lin Xia was a little surprised. Buying an inn is a big deal. How could she do it alone?

He has been living in this house for a few days, and he has a more or less clear idea of ​​how the house is.Aunt Sun is a good person, regardless of her own family's situation, she can be so kind to herself and her mother, two people who have no relatives and no reason. It seems that it is time for me to repay her.

"Yes, Xiao Xia, I would like to ask you and Sister-in-law Yang to help me together, can you? When it is stable, Yang Yang and Shitou will also live there, so that we will not be distracted. It's just that I don't have enough money in the early stage. At that time, your wages may be less, and there are only three of us in the inn..." Sun Meixiang made an estimate of all the situations.

She also knew that the old man definitely didn't believe her one-sided words, and would ask someone to inquire about it if she wanted to, but she didn't care, and what she said was the truth.

She has made up her mind about this inn, no matter whether it is good or bad, this inn is her hope.

"Aunt Sun, why are you talking to us like this? You help me and my mother unconditionally. How can we negotiate with you when you need it. It doesn't matter to the three of us. I'm about to be a little girl." Two, mother's cooking and cleaning are on me and mother. Aunt Sun, you can just be the shopkeeper."

This is probably the most and longest time Lin Xia has said since he lived in this house.

"No matter what, I won't treat you badly. Well, let's not talk about it this time. When it's done tomorrow, you can come and have a look. Xiaoxia, don't quit your job there now. , until the end of the year, let's make another plan, see when it is suitable, and then open!"

When the time was not up to Si, Sun Meixiang stood at the door of the inn with Yangyang and Shitou.With ten taels of silver in her pocket, she felt her heart pounding.

I hope everything goes well, and it will definitely be won.Don't give her so much hope, let her down when the time comes, she doesn't want to try the feeling of falling from heaven to hell at all.

"Little lady, why are you here? It's been a long time!" The owner of Baili saw Sun Meixiang standing at the door of the inn with two children, his eyes lit up, and he went up to say hello.

Sun Meixiang was still thinking about who was so rude, what she looked like here, she didn't need to be reminded at any age, she was always in a hurry.

How could it have anything to do with the word "little lady"?This man was so rude, he even teased himself in front of the child.

What I wanted to say, but the moment I looked up, I saw that it was Baili, the owner of Xinglin House, and immediately shut up.I was wondering, why is this person here?
