And the bigger the shop, the more expensive it is.

She couldn't bear it.

"Oh, you want to rent a shop? Wait here, I'll go check it out in the back."

The Kongya people's smiles retracted a little.

It was just rent, and the money he got was too little.

Naturally, his attitude was not as attentive as before.

The shops and houses for rent were all posted on the other side of the lobby. The people of Kongya guessed that Zhang Jinlan and her friends were illiterate, so they did not take them there.

Instead, I ran to take a look around.

After finding a few that met Zhang Jinlan’s requirements, I came back.

"We have three shops with yards that have not been rented out yet. One is located on Decorative Cloth Street. It used to sell ready-made clothes. The shop is not big, but not small either. It is average. The backyard is quite big. There is not only a toilet, but also two rooms for living. The price is a bit high, and the shop cannot sell food..."

When the Kongya people were introduced.

Zhang Jinlan shook her head repeatedly.

Before he could finish, he interrupted.

"No, no, this is not allowed. We are here to sell food. If we are not allowed to sell food, how can we rent his shop and put it up there?"

Hearing this, the Kongya man shut his mouth, cleared his throat, and began to introduce the next one.

"The second shop is in Wugu Lane on Caishi Street. It's at the end of the lane and a little off the beaten track, but the prices are very low. There are people selling grains around it, so you can also sell food. It has a yard, but it's a little small. There's only a kitchen and a toilet, so it's not suitable for living."

When Kong Yaren introduced herself, her eyes were fixed on Zhang Jinlan's face.

Seeing that she didn't react, I knew she didn't like it.

So he immediately introduced the next one.

"The third shop is in a great location, in the Food Lane of Baishi Street. This is the main lane, and there are so many people coming and going every day. The shop is not big, just enough to meet what you said, ma'am. It can accommodate four tables at most. There is also a backyard with a kitchen, a toilet, and a bedroom, which can accommodate people."

Speaking of the third one.

Zhang Jinlan's eyes began to brighten.

"Let's go check out the third one, this one is pretty good."

She didn't consider the first two.

If one cannot sell food, there is no point renting it.

A very bad location.

Caishi Street basically sells vegetables, grains and various kinds of meat.

The people who go there are just there to buy vegetables and leave immediately after buying. Who would eat there?

I’m afraid that I’ll stay in the shop for the whole day and there won’t be any customers.

The location is remote, in the alley.

Even if the price was lower, she wasn't interested.

Although Zhang Jinlan had never done business, she often went to Caishi Street. Since she had eyes on her face, she would naturally know how to look.

"Okay, wait here for a moment. The shop door is closed. I'll go get the key."

The Kongya people are very fast.

The wait lasted less than three minutes.

He took Zhang Jinlan and a few others to see the shop.

Because they were walking so fast, Jiang Fubao's short legs couldn't keep up.

Zhang Jinlan hurriedly hugged her granddaughter in her arms.

Since the six streets were arranged like petals, it took them only a quarter of an hour to reach Baishi Street.

As you enter the street, the main alley is the food alley.

The shop that Zhang Jinlan wanted to see was located in the middle.

The Kongya people did not enter through the main gate.

He had the key to the small door to the backyard.

A few people walked around the alley and came to the backyard.

The backyard is in a great location, with a small river just outside the door.

There is a row of willow trees planted by the river, which is full of green.

This river supplies water to all households in the town.

"The door is open, ma'am, please come in and take a look."

The four members of the Jiang family who were standing by the river enjoying the breeze heard what the Kongya people said, then they stepped over the threshold and poked their heads in.

At this time, Jiang Fubao had already come down from grandma's arms.

She landed on the ground with her feet and let go of her grandmother's hand.

Look around and touch things in the yard.

The yard is not big, but it is very exquisitely designed.

There is actually a well outside the kitchen.

The toilet is at the corner.

If you build a small house with wooden boards alone, you don't have to worry about the smell spreading into the kitchen or bedroom even in summer.

It was completely blocked by the wall.

You can tell at first glance that a lot of thought was put into it.

As for the bedroom, it is not small and there is even a small room that can be used as a storage room.

After Jiang Fubao walked around the backyard, he ran to the front to check out the shop.

The shop is not big, just as the dealer said.

There was space for four tables. The door was not open and the shop was very dark. It seemed that the inside had not been cleaned for a long time. The counter was covered with dust when I touched it.

Jiang Fubao wiped her hands on her clothes, too lazy to look at it anymore, and turned back to the yard.

He looked down into the well.

After looking for a few seconds, Jiang Fubao sighed. What a pity! This turned out to be a shallow dry well.

If we dig deeper, we might not have to go to the river to fetch water.

Just now she noticed that the water level in the river outside the backyard was particularly low.

If this drought continues for another two or three years.

I'm afraid the river is going to dry up.

The people in the town could only fetch water from the big river outside the city.

The water is deep there.

But the water is turbid.

Only the people in the village don't mind drinking that water.

"How much is the rent for this yard?"

Just as Jiang Fubao was sighing, the voice of grandma asking for the price reached her ears.

Jiang Fubao turned around and looked.

"The minimum rent is six months, and the monthly rent is two taels of silver."

After Kong Yaren finished speaking, Zhang Jinlan took a breath of cold air.

"What, two taels of silver? And I have to rent it for half a year? That would be twelve taels, right?"

OMG!

In the past, their whole family could only save two taels in a year.

In the end, it was only enough to rent a shop for one month.

This does not include the commission paid to the dental clinic.

If she wanted to rent this shop, wouldn't she have to pay thirteen taels of silver at once?

"Yes, the price is definitely non-negotiable, but if you think it's too expensive, I can talk to the owner of the shop and ask him to be flexible and let you rent it for three months first."

Kong Ya has been working in the dental industry for ten years.

He has already become a smart person.

He only needed to glance at Zhang Jinlan's expression to know that she had taken a fancy to this shop.

Since you want to rent a shop, you must have money on you.

He hasn't opened his shop these days, so he is determined to get the first deal.

Although the profit is not much, but even a small amount is still meat.

He has a family to support.

Naturally you have to earn more.

"Let me think about it. It's too expensive."

Zhang Jinlan waved her hands and was unable to recover for a long time.

Two taels of silver a month, and she couldn’t just rent it for one month. If the food business didn’t make it, she would lose about ten taels of silver.

She can't take it.

This is ten taels.

"Well, if you have made up your mind, come to the Yahang to find me. My last name is Kong, so you can just call me Kong Yahang. I won't hide it from you. This shop is very popular. Three groups of people came to see it yesterday. It might be rented out today.

But you also know that the location of this shop is excellent, with the street in front and the water in the back. If you do business here, you will definitely make a fortune. Once the door is opened, the street will be full of people coming and going. As long as the food you make is not bad, it will definitely sell well. "
