The county magistrate's daughter only wants to farm

"Ningxin, why did you suddenly come to the capital?"

"Yeah, I didn't hear from your previous letter that you were coming?"

In the Pinmingxuan Teahouse, Gu Yin and Song Ruorou asked Ye Ningxin with concern.

After not seeing her for nearly a year, Ye Ningxin has grown taller, but her soft and cute temperament has not changed.

"My father was transferred to the capital. It was quite sudden. When I think back on it now, it still feels like a dream..." Ye Ningxin smiled gently, "But this is also a surprise. I can play with you guys in the capital from now on!"

"That's great!" Song Ruorou said excitedly, "Where does your father work after being transferred to the capital?"

"The prefect of Jingzhao."

"Promotion!"

Gu Yin and Song Ruorou were both genuinely happy for her and sent their blessings.

"You will be a noble lady in Beijing in the future!" Song Ruorou patted her shoulder with great generosity.

Ye Ningxin quickly waved her hands and said, "No, I don't want to be a noble lady with a lot of rules."

Seeing this, Gu Yin raised her eyebrows and teased, "Your father will soon be the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture. He will be in charge of the security of the capital from now on. So, whether you like it or not, you are already a noble lady in the capital!"

"I don't care. I heard that the noble ladies in the capital have a lot of rules. If you don't behave well, you will be ridiculed and mocked behind your back." Ye Ningxin raised her chin and insisted.

"That may not be the case. Turn around and look at the person next to you. Does she seem to be following the rules?" Gu Yin raised her chin in the direction of Song Ruorou, her eyes full of mischief.

Ye Ningxin turned to look at her friend, her mouth slightly opened.

Song Ruorou suddenly pounced on Gu Yin, "Okay, you are saying that I have no rules in disguise."

"Tell me honestly, have you ever been bound by those rules?" Gu Yin tried her best to stop Song Ruorou's hands from making trouble, and said with a smile, "How about moving a mirror to look at your current appearance and see if I was wrong?"

The two of them quarreled, and Song Ruorou finally lost. She put her hands on her hips and snorted, "I just don't like to talk about those bullshit rules. Rules are dead, people are alive. Those are not as important as my happiness!"

"Beautiful!" Gu Yin gave a thumbs up.

Ye Ningxin also had stars in her eyes, holding her heart and said, "How enviable!"

"Why are you envious? You can do it too, so don't worry so much." Song Ruorou patted her chest. "Besides, we are all in the capital. If anything happens, just tell us!"

"Remember, besides your family, we are your backing!"

Ye Ningxin gladly accepted her friend's kindness. In fact, she was just a little nervous when she first arrived in the capital. When it came to etiquette and rules, she believed that she was not bad at it.

"Speaking of confidence, I just happen to have something I want to tell you."

"What's the matter?" The two looked at Gu Yin curiously.

Gu Yin then explained the matter of establishing the club and finally asked, "What do you think? Do you want to invest?"

"Invest! I'll invest fifty thousand taels!" Song Ruorou slammed the table and said decisively.

"Fifty thousand taels?" Gu Yin asked in surprise.

Song Ruorou looked at Gu Yin innocently and nodded, "Yeah, isn't it too little? If it's not enough, I'll ask my parents..."

"No, that's how much you invest. I'll find someone else for the rest." Gu Yin interrupted her quickly, "Don't put all your eggs in one basket. If you have more money, I'll come to you next time I need financing!"

"That's fine." Song Ruorou never hesitated and asked Ye Ningxin, "Ningxin, what about you? How much do you plan to invest?"

"I, I don't have ten thousand taels..." Ye Ningxin pursed her lips, a little embarrassed, "Ayin, can I reply to you in two days? I'll go back and ask my parents to collect some money."

"Of course!" Gu Yin nodded.

Song Ruorou said carelessly, "If your parents don't want to give it to you, tell me and I'll lend it to you!"

At this moment, Ye Ningxin suddenly understood the confidence they were talking about.

"Ningxin, how much do you want to invest?" Gu Yin said, "If you don't want to ask your family for help, I can contribute one share with you, that's also fine."

"Really?" Ye Ningxin's eyes suddenly lit up, and she counted her assets on her fingers, whispering, "I have about 7,000 taels in my hand. I plan to invest 5,000 taels and keep the rest for spending."

Gu Yin nodded in agreement.

At this point, Gu Yin had raised 80,000 taels, still 120,000 taels short of the target of 200,000 taels.

However, Gu Yin was not in a hurry to raise the remaining money all at once. There would be many opportunities to raise money later, so Gu Yin was not worried about it.

However, since we are going to open a club, a health massage project is essential. To do this, we have to train staff in advance.

Gu Yin immediately asked someone to bring writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone, and wrote a letter back to Ning County, summoning Ren Tingxue and the others who had sold themselves to her to come to the capital, and also transferred two people from the massage parlor.

After instructing the servant to send the letter, Gu Yin said to the two sisters, "I just wrote a letter asking Tingxue and the others to come to the capital. I have to go to the Yagang Store later to find a place for them to rent. Do you want to go?"

"For such a small matter, just let the servants handle it. Why bother running there yourself?" Song Ruorou said.

"You have a point." Gu Yin nodded and replied, "I just want to learn about the housing prices in Beijing."

Song Ruorou and Ye Ningxin looked at each other: Here it comes again, here it comes again, the sisters are simply planning to learn all the 360 ​​professions.

The three of them drank tea, listened to music, and ate some preserved fruit snacks. Eventually, Song Ruorou could no longer sit still. She suddenly stood up and said, "Let's go and look at the house now! The teahouse always plays these little songs. There is nothing new. My ears are almost callused from listening to them. It's so boring."

Gu Yin comfortably grabbed a handful of preserved fruit and put it into her mouth, chewing it slowly, and looked at Ye Ningxin, "Shall we go?"

"Let's go." Ye Ningxin also felt bored, and Song Ruorou's suggestion was exactly what she wanted.

So the three of them came to the largest dental clinic in the capital.

"Oh, the guests are here. May I ask what you would like to buy?" When a broker saw the carriage stopped at the door, he immediately stepped forward to greet them.

"Do you have any houses for rent? I want to rent a two-story house." Gu Yin asked.

"Miss, you have found the right person. There are many two-story houses listed in the brokerage office. Do you have any requirements? I will take you to have a look right away..."

This agent was obviously a good salesman. He understood Gu Yin's needs in no time and selected three houses from many available.

"You said that the monthly rent for this house is five taels of silver?" Gu Yin was dumbfounded. Is the rent in the capital so expensive?

The broker smiled without losing any of his smile, and nodded in response, "It is indeed five taels. This house is large and has many rooms, so five taels of silver is worth it."

"What if I buy the house? How much money will it cost?" The rent was so expensive that Gu Yin wondered if she could just buy it.

"This number." The dentist raised his index finger.

"One thousand taels?" Gu Yin took a breath of cold air. This was just an ordinary two-story house.

The broker nodded and said, "If you plan to stay here for a long time, I suggest you buy it. It will be more cost-effective than renting a house..."

What the broker said was indeed true. As long as the dynasty did not fall, the housing prices in the capital would only get higher and higher, and the rent would be more expensive in the future. It would be better to buy it directly with full payment. Perhaps it would take less than ten years to get a payback, and by then the house would be hers.

Gu Yin thought about it, bargained with the broker, and finally bought it for 888 taels.
