The little village girl dressed as a disaster star led the whole village astray
Chapter 42 The House You Want
"You're really welcome."
Li Xi glanced at him and said, "Why should I be so polite?"
If you feel sorry for a man, you will be unlucky for the rest of your life.
As they were talking, they arrived at Yong'an Hall.
The Yong'an Hall was still the same as that day. Only Awei was behind the counter. Doctor Wu should be behind him.
"Awei." Li Xi called him.
Ah Wei looked up when he heard the voice and recognized Li Xi, "It's you."
He glanced at the man next to Li Xi and the man behind him, and shouted to the inner room, "Master, that girl is here again!"
Li Xi: …
Well, this word “又” is very spiritual.
Upon hearing this, Gu Jingzhi raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Xi. It seemed that she was quite "famous" here.
Li Xi pretended not to notice Gu Jingzhi's scrutiny, coughed lightly and stepped forward, "I haven't seen you for a long time, Ah Wei is still so irritable, it's not easy for Doctor Wu."
A Wei was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He snorted at Li Xi and turned his head away.
Doctor Wu walked out of the room and was stunned when he saw the man next to Li Xi. Then he smiled and greeted Li Xi, "It's you, little girl. What good things did you bring this time?"
Gu Jingzhi's eyes flashed as he looked at Doctor Wu, and then he stood obediently behind Li Xi.
Li Xi asked Gu Jingzhi to take down the backpack, "There is no ginseng this time, but some different medicinal herbs."
She is not God's biological daughter, so how can she have such good luck every time?
Doctor Wu was a little disappointed to hear her say that. The golden ring snake she brought last time was quite good, and he thought she might have another treasure this time.
Just as she said, what Li Xi brought this time were all common medicinal herbs, and she only spent twenty cents in total.
But Li Xi didn't care. She was not short of money now. The reason why she asked Gu Jingzhi to carry the herbs was because she would need a backpack to buy things later. It would be a waste to carry it empty. She might as well fill it with herbs to sell. No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat.
After the transaction, Li Xi asked, "Doctor Wu, I want to rent a house in the city. Do you know a reliable broker?"
Doctor Wu casually glanced at Gu Jingzhi behind Li Xi and asked, "Are you moving to the city?"
Judging from Li Xi's dress, she doesn't look like a rich person, but she has more than thirty taels of silver that she got here last time, which is enough to rent a house in the city.
"Yes, my little brother has reached the age to go to school, and I heard from others that the private school in Jiangning City is pretty good.
So I thought it would be more convenient to move to the city." It would also allow me to stay away from weirdos like Mrs. Li.
Mrs. Liu remarried, and because of the two incidents in which they stabbed people, the villagers now look at them strangely.
She could have ignored it, but she didn't want Hu Zi to grow up in that kind of environment. The rumors around him would have a huge impact on the healthy growth of a child.
"What kind of house do you want to rent?" asked Doctor Wu.
"What? Doctor Wu has it?" Li Xi looked at Doctor Wu in surprise.
"Master!" Ah Wei stared at Doctor Wu, "This Yong'an Hall is already crowded enough."
The front of Yong'an Hall is used to sell medicine, and the backyard is used to store medicinal materials and for food and accommodation. There are only three rooms in the backyard, one for him and one for his master, and there is another room for storing medicinal materials. Where else can they rent out?
Doctor Wu flicked Ah Wei’s head in annoyance and said with a look of disdain, “I didn’t say to rent out Yong’an Hall.”
"I have a yard with three rooms. You can go and have a look." Doctor Wu said, withdrawing his hand.
Ah Wei covered his forehead and pouted, "Master, why didn't I know you had a house in Jiangning City?"
Li Xi's eyes lit up, "Okay, let's go and take a look."
"Awei, you stay and watch the store. I'll take them to have a look."
Asui nodded reluctantly and watched them leave with a pout.
Doctor Wu's house is not far from Yong'an Hall, only about 500 meters away. When you push open the door, you will see three main rooms made of blue bricks and large tiles, with two auxiliary rooms next to them. The yard is not small either, and there is a persimmon tree in the yard. The tree has no leaves, but it still looks quite beautiful.
The yard was also very clean. Li Xi fell in love with the house at first sight. "Doctor Wu, how much is the rent for this house?"
"Ten taels of silver a year."
The price that Doctor Wu mentioned was actually very fair. If it weren't for that man's face, he wouldn't have rented it out for twenty taels. After all, he wasn't short of money, otherwise the room would have been rented out long ago.
Li Xi didn't know the prices here, and whether ten taels of silver a year was expensive, but this matter was just asking for an exorbitant price and bargaining.
"It's too expensive, five taels."
The first bargaining trick: half a split!
"What! Five taels!" Doctor Wu widened his eyes in disbelief. In his entire life, this was the first time he had seen such bargaining.
Cut it in half right away.
Li Xi said in a serious tone: "Ahem, Doctor Wu, I'm telling you, this house is just sitting here and you won't make any money. If you rent it to me, it's like picking it up for free.
Think about it, is this the truth?
"What is it? No one bargains like you do. If you don't rent it, there are others who will. Besides, even if it's free, I still know the difference between picking up five taels and picking up ten taels."
Sly little girl!
Gu Jingzhi stood aside holding Hu Zi and watching the fun.
"Okay," Li Xi said with a reluctant look, "Let's each take a step back, six taels."
Doctor Wu: …
How come he doesn't show any sincerity in this step of retreat?
"Twelve taels."
"Six taels and five."
"Twelve taels."
"Seven taels."
"Twelve taels."
……
No matter how Li Xi bargained, Doctor Wu refused to give in until he reached ten taels, so Li Xi had no choice but to accept the offer.
Doctor Wu: ...Nonsense, he is already losing ten taels of silver, and the little girl is taking advantage of him and acting like a slut.
Not bargaining would mean suffering a loss, and Li Xi felt that he had suffered a loss, so he signed the lease. Li Xi paid half a year's rent in exchange for a key.
Looking at the keys in his hand, Li Xi breathed a sigh of relief. Never mind. No matter what, the house has been rented and the move is done.
Li Xi had originally planned to look at several houses today and then choose the best one, but she didn't expect the house issue to be resolved so quickly, so she planned to take Hu Zi to the private school to have a look today.
Li Xi asked all the way to the private school. The location of this private school was not too far from the house they rented, so the house could be considered a school district house.
This made Li Xi, who was already satisfied with the house, even more satisfied, and the depression in her heart about not being able to lower the price also dissipated.
The private school has been on vacation for a month, and there are no students in it now. However, this private school was opened by Master Jiang and several friends. It is not small in scale and is well-known in several towns along the border. It is located near Master Jiang's home.
These were all what Li Xi asked from passers-by when he was asking for directions to the private school.
Seeing that the private school door was closed, Li Xi asked Gu Jingzhi to take the gifts she bought and visit Master Jiang's home.
Gu Jingzhi: ...
