The casual life of the flat space

Chapter 72: "Move in with your luggage"

Bai Tieying went to the carriage shop and ordered a carriage. He asked them to stop at the entrance of an alley on the way, gave the driver some money for tea, and asked him to come back after a cup of tea. Then Bai Tieying disappeared from the carriage into space.

Fortunately, she had bought a lot of things that could be used. Otherwise, if she bought them now, Xiao Qian would be suspicious after a long time. As for whether Xiao Qian would do what she wanted, she didn't care. It would be great if it could be solved once, but if not, there would be a long time to come!

When she saw the thick stack of banknotes just now, she was also very tempted! But she should only earn what she can and not make any unnecessary trouble. Besides, it was more than 6,000 taels! It was already much more than she originally thought she could earn!

This was not what she had planned, but she didn't expect it to happen and she had the opportunity. So even though there was a big loophole in the plan, what if it succeeded?

The experience and feelings she had yesterday at the Commander-in-Chief's Mansion had been weighing on her mind for the past two days. So borrowing a small identity from her was nothing, and it would be considered as General Zhao's apology!

Ten thousand cherries may sound like a lot, but in fact they are only a few dozen kilograms. Hairy cherries are not as big as the original cherries, which weigh only about 300 to 500 per kilogram!

Fearing that Xiao Qian would give up halfway, Bai Tieying soaked the cherries in well water again, laid a thick layer of sedge on the bottom, and then put all the cherries into the box. He also ripened a batch of Ganoderma lucidum and put it in another box, and then left the space and waited for the driver in the carriage.

When he was almost at the county magistrate's mansion, Bai Tieying asked the driver to stop, gave him a few instructions, and then walked towards the North Road Military Command for a while. When he looked back and could no longer see the driver, he hurried to the south of the city. On the way, he found a clothing store and bought a new set of clothes, changed his hairstyle, put on a veil, and went to a dental shop in the south of the city.

Now that she had money, she planned to rent a small yard to store her things for safety reasons. If it was inconvenient to let her uncle know that she was in the county town, she would have a place to stay.

After choosing a dental clinic, as soon as he entered the door, he saw a group of people pressing their fingerprints with sad faces and crying. Bai Tieying immediately felt unhappy.

The broker who came up to greet her saw her standing there, looking at the group, and explained, "These are all poor people. There was a drought in the west last year, and these people have been fleeing all the way to us for several months. Although they have signed a contract, they can finally have food to eat and a stable life."

After listening to the dentist's explanation, Bai Tieying knew that he couldn't be too "sentimental". No one would be willing to do this unless they were desperate. Besides, this dentistry shop had a plaque in the space, so it seemed that there was nothing dirty going on.

"Hello! I want to rent a yard in the south of the city, with a separate house and a reasonable price."

"There are two houses with separate entrances and exits. One is a slightly larger slow house with a main room and east and west wing rooms, but the yard is small. The other is a compact house with only a main room, but the yard is large. Which one do you want?"

"Which yard has the well?"

"The slightly larger one. I'm not picking the expensive one. Although this one is a little out of the way, it's quiet, isn't it? There are many rooms, suitable for tenants with many people and things in their families.

The son and his family went to the next county to do business, and the old couple wanted to sell their house and follow them. But the asking price was a bit high, and the location was remote, so they never sold it. That’s why they came to me and said they would rent it first.”

"Then take me to see these two houses!"

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll go get the key." Seeing that the girl really wanted to rent a house, the broker happily ran to the shopkeeper to get the key. As for the girl's identity, there was no need to ask too much, and it was impossible to ask too much. For those in their line of work, the most important thing was to keep their mouths shut.

"Take a look at this small one first. It's close to the West Market, lively, and convenient for buying anything. In fact, the well is not too far away, and it only takes a cup of tea to get there."

The broker took Bai Tieying to the small courtyard first. After seeing it, Bai Tieying understood what he meant by a tight room. In the original world, this place was a bit like being near a commercial street in a residential area. It would be more suitable for storing and taking things. Moreover, this courtyard was also very close to his uncle's house.

When they arrived at the slow house with a large house and a small courtyard, Bai Tieying checked the space map and thought, "This is almost out of the city, okay? No wonder no one rents or buys it, but this is also suitable for her. After all, she has many "little secrets" and doesn't want others to think it's strange, so it's better to be "alone".

"How did you rent these two yards?"

"Both houses cost 800 wen a month."

"How much does this cost?"

"The landlord wants five hundred taels."

"Can I complete the deed if I buy it today?"

"Oh, you really decided to buy it? That's fine, but don't you need to discuss it with your family?"

"No, but the price is a bit high. Yaojing is only 1,500 taels. You tell the landlord it's 300 taels and I'll pay immediately, but the deed must be completed before 3 p.m.

I also rented that small yard. Please move in with me later!"

"Okay, then you sit here for a while, I'll go find the landlord. There's no need to look for the landlord of the small courtyard, just come back with us to the dental office to sign the lease."

The broker went out, and Bai Tieying took a quick look around the yard. He thought the house was well designed and well maintained, and that he could just clean it and put down some bedding and move in. This was a true “move-in ready” experience!

Not long after, the old couple came. They were very satisfied with the house they had just seen, and the owner seemed to be a nice person, so Bai Tieying's "landing money" was not as harsh as before. In the end, the deal was made for 400 taels, but the furniture was still included.

After locking the door, I rented a carriage from the landlord and the broker and went to the county government office to change the lease. I came back and signed a six-month lease for the courtyard. When I got the key and went in, it was already noon.

Bai Tieying has gradually figured out the time these days. Today is a sunny day, and the position of the sun gives her a basis. If there is no sun, she might be at a loss again.

After the broker left, she took out the mountain products that she wanted to give to Shopkeeper Zhang from the space and filled the courtyard with them. She then placed the Ganoderma lucidum in the house and went to Chunfu Hall to find Shopkeeper Zhang.

Manager Zhang was not there, but the clerk from yesterday was there, and he greeted Bai Tieying warmly when he saw her.

"Miss Bai is here? Shopkeeper Zhang has been talking about how nice you are since he came back from the restaurant! What a coincidence, he just went to the warehouse and you came."

"Hello, uncle! I will be back in a while. This is the key to our village's mountain products storage area. Here is the address. Please ask Uncle Zhang to put it away as soon as possible. They are all piled outside. Don't let them get wet in the rain! By the way, the Ganoderma lucidum is in the house. You can see it when you open the door."

"Hey, the shopkeeper said he would bring a car to pick it up. Have you delivered it? Okay, I'll tell him when he comes back. Be careful on the way back! Don't play around, go home early!"

"Okay, got it, thank you uncle."
