Traveling through the starry sky just for you, I was a koi in ancient times

Since traveling through time, Wang Jinyi has become increasingly aware that he is powerless to change what is already there, but he will not go with the flow...

At this moment, Zhao Liuzhu, who was being talked about by Wang Jinyi, was forced by the Cheng family to stay overnight. His uncle Cheng Dafu took away his money and the lady's letter, and did not take him to the servants' room until the evening.

The next morning, Cheng Dafu took him to meet the eldest son of the Cheng family, Cheng Boyan.

Considering the situation of his own young generation, Cheng Boyan conducted a comprehensive investigation on Zhao Liuzhu. In the end, he knew every person in the private school he had attended and his teacher's family clearly.

Only then did he let Cheng Dafu take him to the accounting office to have a look and learn.

Zhao Liuzhu thought that these were the benefits his uncle had fought for him, but he had no idea that he had only received these benefits because he had exposed the young lady.

In fact, the investigation into Wang Jinyi’s store opening is still ongoing.

Yesterday, Cheng Boyan told the Cheng family about Wang Jinyi opening a store. The Cheng family wanted to help check it out. After all, she is an outsider, so how could they not help the child check it out?

This morning, he sent out two managers from his outer courtyard to check out the two shops that Wang Jinyi had "selected".

The two stewards rushed back to the mansion and confirmed that Wang Jinyi had a unique vision and accurate judgment.

He called Cheng Dafu again and gave him all these instructions.

Cheng Dafu took the gold ingot to the accounting office to exchange it for a silver note worth fifty taels and fifty taels of cash, and then went to find Zhao Liuzhu.

Zhao Liuzhu was holding a carrying pole, waiting anxiously in front of the servant's room.

The young lady said to be cautious, but I was not cautious and handed over the money casually. I was really afraid that something might happen! No matter how much I trusted my uncle, I was still a little worried.

Seeing Cheng Dafu walking towards him with a package in his arms and two young men who looked like servants, he was still a little confused about the situation.

"Let's go. I've talked to the owner. I'll go with you to book the store today."

Afraid that Zhao Liuzhu would worry, he returned the money box to Zhao Liuzhu.

"This is the silver ingot that I exchanged for, fifty taels, and this is a silver note, fifty taels, a total of one hundred taels.

The master sent two people to follow him, fearing that something might happen."

After hearing this, Zhao Liuzhu was very grateful. He didn't know that the Cheng family did this for Wang Jinyi. He had a good impression of the Cheng family and became more dependent on his uncle.

After getting on the blue cloth carriage specially sent by the Cheng family, they soon arrived at Taisheng Rice Shop on Yanshou Road.

Zhao Liuzhu has become very familiar with Tai Sheng Rice Shop in the past few days.

The name of Tai Sheng Rice Shop is a black wooden plaque hanging above the store. The door is made up of six independent door panels. It is now half open, with only three panels removed. There are still a few customers in the store buying grain.

The shop assistant was busy with reception, seeing so many people coming into the shop, and he was busy greeting them.

"The guests can choose their own places first. I will come right over."

After sending the lady who was buying grain out, he turned around, wiped his hands with the towel on his body, bowed slightly, and asked:

"What do you want to buy? I'll show you around. How much do you plan to buy? We have discounts if you buy more."

Zhao Liuzhu noted that there was a "discount" and asked:

"Is your boss here? Two days ago, I talked to him about taking over your store, and I wanted to have a serious chat today."

The guy observed the group of people carefully. The one who was speaking was a young man holding a carrying pole. He looked shorter than him and was younger than him.

A middle-aged man followed behind him, and behind him stood two young men in shorts.

"Sir, please wait a moment. I'll go take a look." Then he went to the back of the store.

After a while, Zhao Liuzhu and his group were invited to the backyard, which was more like a small enclosed patio with a circle of houses. It can be seen that most of the houses were warehouses.

The house has been waterproofed, moisture-proofed and ventilated. The windows are double-layered and the window frames are covered with gauze but no paper, probably to facilitate ventilation.

The steps in front of the door are raised to prevent rainwater from flowing back, and there are bagged medicine bags around the room to prevent insects and rodents.

A middle-aged man was standing under the wooden lattice window, looking calm and steady.

The two greeted each other and entered the house, which was a very small suite. Fortunately, there were only four people in Zhao Liuzhu's group, otherwise, they would not even be able to greet each other after entering the door. So the two young men had no choice but to stand in the patio.

After some bargaining, the rice shop and its stored grain were converted into silver and transferred to Zhao Liuzhu.

Watching Zhao Liuzhu checking the stored grain room by room, and opening each bag of grain to examine them one by one, Cheng Dafu said nothing, but just followed closely behind him.

I felt that this child was indeed methodical and careful in doing things, and perhaps I had underestimated him in the past.

When talking about the discount for purchasing grain at one time, Zhao Liuzhu showed his familiarity with grain prices. He quoted the purchase prices of various grains in different seasons. The boss shook his head helplessly. Zhao Chunming then repeated the grain prices of various grain shops that he had learned in the past few days.

The boss had no choice but to give a discount on the wholesale price and transfer it to Zhao Liuzhu in one lump sum.

"You can't bargain anymore. If you do, I won't sell my shop anymore. You must pay in cash."

Zhao Liuzhu required the front store to be closed and the goods to be counted, and the goods to be counted in the backyard and a detailed account to be written before paying the deposit.

At this point, the shop owner was impressed by the young Zhao Liuzhu. He was so young, yet thoughtful and cautious. No wonder he was the one leading a group of adults.

The owner later mentioned the clerk in the store, who was from Xunyang City, had a guarantor and an intermediary, was very reliable and capable, which meant that he wanted to keep the clerk in the new store.

But Zhao Liuzhu did not respond, because he remembered very clearly that the lady had said in the "discretion" that he would be the only one in the store for the time being, and he would definitely listen to the lady and get everything done.

Both parties took inventory of all the food in stock, and everything left by the former owner was also recorded in the account.

After paying the deposit and keeping the receipt, we formally signed the contract the next afternoon after reaching an agreement.

It was not until this time that Cheng Dafu reminded them to get an official deed.

This means that both the shop owner and the landlord are required to meet the new shop owner and then go to the government office together to handle the formalities. Although some fees need to be paid at the government office, it can avoid unnecessary disputes later, such as rent increases due to the change of shop owner, etc.

After both parties had put all the agreements in writing, Zhao Liuzhu requested that all the remaining grain be stored in a warehouse and asked the store owner to let him stay overnight.

Cheng Dafu felt that what his nephew did was very necessary, so he left the two servants behind to look after the store and the grain.

In front of Taisheng Rice Shop, when the two sides said goodbye, it was completely dark.

Counting the inventory that day was purely physical work. Fortunately, the Cheng family sent two young and strong servants, otherwise we would have to work until even later.

After getting on the blue cloth carriage, Zhao Liuzhu remembered that Miss Wang said she wanted to change her name and use her household registration to go through the procedures for renting a shop, so he said,

"Uncle, can we still leave the city now?"

"what?"

"I have to go home to rent a store and get my user ID."

"I'm afraid the city gates have already been closed. Let's do it tomorrow and go back to the Cheng family first."

As soon as they arrived at the Cheng family's house, Cheng Dafu arranged for Zhao Liuzhu and hurried to the upper room to report to the host what had happened today.

The next day, Zhao Liuzhu took his household registration and successfully changed his name at the government office. From then on, Zhao Liuzhu became Zhao Chunming of Taisheng Rice Shop, and Wang Jinyi's mission of finding someone took a step forward!
