Becoming wealthy by raising furry animals

Chapter 92 Buying a Manor (1)

Ban You looked at Erhua carefully. She had bright eyes and calloused hands. Her clothes were old but clean, and she looked like a hardworking person.

Thinking of this, she nodded with satisfaction, then took out a purse from her sleeve and handed it to Fang Silan.

"Sister Fang, this is the fee, please keep it."

Fang Silan took it, felt the weight, and said with a smile: "This is too much, I..."

Before she could finish her words, Ban You interrupted her: "Sister, you helped me find someone, this is what you deserve. And you took so much trouble to find me the right person in just one night."

Ban You's words were beautiful and touched Fang Silan's heart.

She laughed so happily that her eyes narrowed. She stuffed the purse into her sleeve and chatted with Ban You for a few more words before leaving.

"Your name is Erhua?" Ban You looked at the simple and innocent girl in front of him.

"Yes, Master. My last name is Wang, Wang Erhua."

"Then do you mind changing your name? There are a lot of customers coming and going in the store, so calling you Erhua may not be appropriate." Ban You said this with great hesitation. She pursed her lips, wrinkled her nose, and there was a hint of caution in her tone, fearing that the girl in front of her would think too much.

"It's okay, master, you can give me a name. I can't read and don't know what to call me." Erhua immediately responded to Ban You after hearing her words.

Ban You thought about it, and suddenly an idea came to his mind: "How about calling you Wang Miao? Miao is a word that describes a woman's beauty. From now on, I will call you Miaomiao."

"Miao Miao?" The girl muttered these two words and nodded vigorously. "Okay! Thank you for the name, Master."

Ban You took her hand, smiled kindly and said, "I'm glad you didn't think too much about it."

She turned around and called Cui Liu over. After Cui Liu came over, she took Cui Liu's hand and introduced him to Miaomiao, "This is Cui Liu. Cui Liu, this is Miaomiao. From now on, we're a family in the same shop. I just hope that we can all work together to make this shop a great success!"

"Okay!" the other two said in unison.

During the morning, in addition to receiving customers, Ban You was also quietly observing Wang Miao's situation.

Seeing that she worked efficiently and greeted customers with a smile, and hearing several customers praise her for her hospitality and thoughtfulness, I couldn't help but feel much more satisfied.

Before lunch, Qingsu Hall welcomed a guest who had not been seen for a long time.

"Lanxin, long time no see, I missed you so much." Ban You said as he hugged Li Lanxin, took her hand and went to the bedroom.

"I went to the farm outside the city a few days ago and only came back yesterday. But I heard that you went to the palace to treat Silver Wolf, and His Majesty personally bestowed the title of Miracle Doctor on you. You're amazing!"

Li Lanxin said this very sincerely, and her tone was filled with blessings and envy for Ban You.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that His Majesty would give such a generous reward." Ban You took Li Lanxin's hand and excitedly told her about this matter. He also told Li Lanxin about his encounter with Zhou Qi.

"Ah? You almost offended that prince?!" Li Lanxin's face was full of shock when she heard Ban You's words, and she unconsciously used some strength in her hands.

"Who said it wasn't? It scared me to death. I almost thought I was going to kneel down there."

"That prince and Prince Ning grew up together and have a very good relationship," Li Lanxin said with a sigh. "I just didn't expect you to meet him. Fortunately, the Queen likes you, so nothing happened. Otherwise, you would have suffered a lot."

"Who says it's not true? Fortunately, everyone loves me and flowers bloom when I see them." Ban You said, his words full of pride.

"Okay, let's stop talking about this. Let's go out for a walk. We can even have dinner together." Ban You said as he shook Li Lanxin's hand, with a hint of coquettishness in his tone.

"Okay, I've never gone shopping with you before."

Coincidentally, as soon as the two of them entered the shop, they saw Zheng Wenran's carriage parked in front of the shop. "Shu'er?"

"Ayou, I'm here to go shopping with you." Zheng Wenran did not get off the carriage, but lifted the curtain and said to Ban You.

"It just so happens that Lanxin and I are also planning to go shopping and have a meal. Shall we go together?" Ban You said as he introduced Li Lanxin to Zheng Wenran.

"Okay, then get in the carriage."

As soon as Zheng Wenran finished speaking, the coachman immediately put down the footstool and invited the two of them to get on the carriage.

"It's almost dinner time, why don't we go to Wangxian Tower and have a meal first."

"Okay, okay, I'm just hungry." When talking about eating, Ban You's eyes lit up and he nodded continuously.

Wangxianlou is a famous restaurant in Shangjing and is almost always full. If Zheng Wenran had not come and reserved a private room, they would have had to find another place to eat today.

In the private room, Ban You and the other two ordered a few signature dishes and a pot of osmanthus wine.

"This osmanthus wine is the signature dish here. It's slightly sweet and mellow, with a hint of osmanthus fragrance. The most important thing is that it's not intoxicating!" Zheng Wenran said as he raised his glass and drank it.

"Well, it's really delicious, much better than what I had in Yuncheng before." After taking a sip, Ban You nodded with satisfaction.

The three of them were having a great time eating, drinking and chatting.

"Shu'er, what have you been busy with recently? I haven't seen you for several days."

Ban You's words made Zheng Wenran put down her chopsticks. She wiped her mouth and sighed softly, "A good friend of mine has a farm on the outskirts of the city that she wants to sell, but she hasn't found a suitable buyer. She asked me yesterday, but it's just a single farm, and there's no need to buy it, so she hasn't sold it yet."

"What Zhuangzi?" Ban You looked at her curiously.

"That place is called a manor, but it's actually just a walled area. There are no servants inside, and no one has ever cleaned it. It's also remote and hasn't been used in a long time. His family has several manors, so they want to sell this unused one."

"Is that so?" Ban You said and nodded.

After a while, she suddenly looked at Zheng Wenran and asked hesitantly, "How much silver does the manor have?"

"It's not expensive. The farm is a bit bigger than Qingsu Hall. It costs 80,000 taels."

"Ahem, eighty thousand?!" Ban You almost spit out the hot imported soup he had just drunk when he heard Zheng Wenran's words. "That's too expensive."

Ban You said and shook his head.

"There are very few people selling manors in Shangjing these days. This one is of average size, with side rooms and a main hall, but it does need some sprucing up."

"I really want to buy a farm, but it's really expensive, and I don't have that much money right now."

Li Lanxin nodded after hearing Ban You's words and said, "Indeed, buying a manor is no small matter after all, so we need to consider it carefully."

"That's right." Ban You said, looking at Zheng Wenran expectantly, "How about you take me around tomorrow if you're free?"

"Of course, if you take a look first, we can discuss the silver issue."
