After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Xia Wanniang looked at the cakes and tea on the table and said, "It looks like they are not cheap. The owner here is not afraid of losing money."

Xiao Chiye smiled and said, "Even if the deal doesn't work out this time, you'll definitely think of them next time you want to do business. You won't lose money anyway."

Xia Wanniang agreed. Who would come to the pawnshop if they didn't have the intention to buy or sell something? "Do you think there are people who often come here to cheat for cakes and tea?"

"There are quite a lot of people like this." A pleasant female voice came from behind them.

Xia Wanniang and Xiao Chiye turned around and looked at the people behind them.

The woman was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with her hair in a bun. Her face was not outstanding, just ordinary. However, her eyes were bright and clear, which added a lot of color to her ordinary appearance.

She allowed the two men to look at her openly, then walked over and sat down opposite them, holding a booklet in her hand.

Xia Wanniang raised her eyebrows and looked at the woman in front of her: "Are you the broker from Sanwu Pavilion?"

The woman smiled faintly and said, "My husband's surname is Huo and I am the fourth child. If you don't mind, you can call me Fourth Lady Huo."

Seeing that she was capable, Xia Wanniang said, "Since you are older than me, why don't I call you Fourth Sister?"

Huo Si Niang nodded and agreed: "I don't know how to address my sister and brother-in-law yet."

Xia Wanniang: "My husband's last name is Xiao, and my maiden name is Xia. You can call me Sister Xiao or Sister Xia."

Huo Si Niang thought about it and decided to call her Sister Xiao. "I wonder what kind of land you want to buy, rice fields or land."

Xiao Chiye did not interrupt, he just listened quietly the whole time, acting as a background.

Xia Wanniang thought for a moment and said, "I want to buy a rice field, preferably one near Liuyang Village. I wonder what the current price of a rice field is?"

Huo Si Niang understood: "There are relatively few rice fields for sale now, and most of them are low-quality rice fields. There are currently no rice fields for sale near your Liuyang Village."

Xia Wanniang heard a key word, inferior rice fields: "Fourth sister, are there different grades of rice fields?"

Huo Si Niang was slightly stunned. Judging from the way the two were dressed, they should be farmers. How could they not even know the grades of rice fields? She looked at their faces carefully again.

Although the man had a wound on his face, it couldn't hide their outstanding looks. She secretly glanced at Xia Wanniang's fingers placed on the table. They were soft and boneless, and she didn't look like someone doing farm work at all.

She could only think of one possibility, that these two people might be the young master and young mistress of a wealthy family, and they might have come here to learn something.

After figuring it out, she explained, "Yes, there are three types: high, medium, and low. The best is naturally the high-quality rice field, and the price is higher than the other two grades. The same is true for the fields."

Xia Wanniang nodded after hearing this and said, "So there are no suitable rice fields for sale near Liuyang Village now?"

Huo Si Niang flipped open the booklet on the table and looked it up carefully: "The rice fields currently for sale are quite far from Liuyang Village. It's not easy to manage them if you plant them yourself or rent them out to tenants."

Seeing that Xia Wanniang looked a little regretful, Xiao Chiye turned to look at Huo Si Niang and said, "Fourth sister, please help me keep an eye on the rice fields near Liuyang Village. If there are any for sale, please go to the foot of the mountain behind Liuyang Village to inform us."

Huo Si Niang smiled and nodded: "Of course, I wonder if you two have any other needs."

Xia Wanniang also knew that this rice field was hard to come by, so she could only wait a little longer: "I want to ask the shops in the city how much it rents and how much it sells for."

Huo Si Niang: "The location and size of the store determine its price. Why don't you tell me your requirements, Sister Xiao, and I will help you select a suitable store."

Xia Wanniang thought about the things she wanted to sell now, which included soap, perfumed soap, shampoo, conditioner, toothbrushes and other items, so she didn't need a very big store.

When I sell more things in the future, I will consider moving to a bigger shop.

After she made up her mind, she said, "It will be fine if the storefront is similar to yours. It will be enough if the area is one-fourth of this place, and the location will be fine if the traffic volume is similar to your alley."

It was the first time that Huo Si Niang had heard such a metaphor, but it did make her quite curious. She flipped through the booklet in her hand and found that there were indeed a few shops that fit the bill.

"There are two shops in this alley, and two in another alley. Why don't I take you to have a look before you make a decision?"
