After the separation, the family had a lot of fish and meat every day, and the best was furious

Since the teahouse was closed anyway and the waiter didn't have to work, he took Lin Ting to look around.

Lin Ting wanted to open a teahouse, and most of the configurations here were suitable, and the tables and chairs were still 80% new.

There are more than fifty tables on the first floor, and the backyard is a tea room and pastry shop, as well as a rest area, a place for sundries and a place to park carriages.

Half of the second floor is private rooms, and the other half is similar to the downstairs.

It gives people the feeling that it is all decorated with wood.

There are six private rooms on the third floor, which are used for people to talk and drink tea.

"Madam, now that you've seen everything here, how do you feel?"

Lin Ting was still satisfied in his heart, but he looked indifferent on the surface.

"If you transfer it, what's the approximate amount?"

The waiter scratched his head. The boss didn't have the time to tell him that the teahouse business was not good and had been making losses, so he closed it.

"Well, I'll ask our boss to come and talk to you. I'm just a clerk and I don't know anything."

Lin Ting nodded and sat on the first floor waiting for the waiter to call someone.

About an incense stick of time later, the boy came back, followed by a lady and several of her maids.

"Boss, this lady wants to transfer our teahouse."

Hearing someone coming, Lin Ting stood up and turned around.

But when she saw the owner of Mingxianglou, she was stunned.

"Mrs. Lin, why is it you?"

The owner was none other than Mrs. Lu, whom Lin Ting had met this morning.

This teahouse is actually her property.

"Mrs. Lu, what a coincidence."

Mrs. Lu asked the waiter and the maid to make a pot of tea and bring over any cakes in the shop.

"Mrs. Lin, please take a seat."

Mrs. Lu looked tired and her eyes were yellow. It seemed that she had not had a good night's sleep for a long time.

"Is Master Lu feeling better now that he's home?"

“Today is much better than before, and I’m lucky to have met you, Madam Lin, but this teahouse is my dowry.

I married and moved to Huang County from Wenzhu County. My husband is not in good health, and I have even less energy to run this teahouse.

I wonder what kind of business you want to do by transferring this building, Madam Lin?"

Mrs. Lu just wanted to transfer the teahouse, not sell the entire building, so she had to ask clearly.

“I also want to open a teahouse, but I don’t know how Mrs. Lu wants to run it?”

Mrs. Lu breathed a sigh of relief. This teahouse was her dowry. She would not want it to be given to others to do any business, but if she still wanted to open a teahouse.

Then there won't be too many changes, and she will be more accepting of it.

"I've thought of two ways to run this teahouse. If you open a restaurant or something like that, then the tea sets, pastry shop, tables and chairs will naturally be transferred to you as well.

But if you also run a teahouse, then these tools are applicable, so I can rent it.

At the same time, this will also reduce the financial pressure on you to open your business. I am only giving you this condition because Madam Lin saved my master."

The building is rented, and if she wants to buy these tables and chairs, it will indeed cost a lot of money. But if she has to rent it, given her current net worth, she can accept the latter.

"Then I'd like to thank Mrs. Lu first, but if I rent all of it, how much is it per month?"

The waiter made tea and Mrs. Lu's maid served it to Lin Ting.

"Madam Lin, my master and I have been in business for many years. This location, this entire building, and a backyard are available for rent at the market price of 132 taels per month."

This teahouse has always been a loss-making business for Mrs. Lu. It would be better to rent it out and earn some money every month.

Thirty taels is a reasonable price in a busy area, especially since the building is so big.

"Mrs. Lu, thirty taels a month, can't it be a little less?"

Mrs. Lu picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"This price is already lower than our peers, and these tables and chairs are all made of pear wood, so the price cannot be lowered any further.

If Madam Lin really wants to open a teahouse, the rent should be paid every six months instead of every three months, and Madam Lin, don't say I'm bullying you."

First of all, this teahouse doesn’t make any money. Secondly, Mr. Lu’s illness still depends on Lin Ting, and Mrs. Lu also wants to have a good talk with Lin Ting.

After thinking about it, Lin Ting still felt that this teahouse was very good and nodded in agreement.

"Mrs. Lu, let's sign the contract now. We'll rent this building for one year. After the lease expires, if we need to renew it, we'll contact you."

Mrs. Lu was also very straightforward. She immediately asked someone to get paper and pen and wrote two full pages of relevant matters.

These were all things they had discussed, and in the end, Lin Ting signed his name and pressed his fingerprint, while Mrs. Lu's name was signed with her official seal.

You can tell at first glance that he is a professional businessman, in contrast to wild businessmen like Lin Ting.

Looking at the contract in her hand, from today on, this teahouse belongs to her and her sister.

"Mrs. Lin, I wish you a prosperous business, wealth coming from all directions, and a fortune every day."

Lin Ting nodded to Madam Lu and took out ninety taels of silver from his waist and handed it to Madam Lu.

"Thank you, Madam Lu, for your kind words."

Mrs. Lu looked at the former teahouse and hoped that it would be transformed into a brand new one after being handed over to Lin Ting.

"Mrs. Lin, there are still a few waiters in this teahouse. If you are willing to keep them, you can let them follow you. If not, I will pay them their wages and let them leave."

There was only one waiter in the teahouse today. Originally there were seven, but there was no business, so Mrs. Lu asked them to rest at home.

If it really doesn't work, we can only pay them their wages and let them find a living elsewhere.

"Let them stay for now. After all, they've been working here for a long time and are familiar with it. I need to hire more people anyway."

“Okay, I will pay them their previous wages, and from now on they will be handed over to you, Madam Lin.

Xiaofu, give the list of shop assistants to Madam Lin, and from now on you will follow Madam Lin and work hard. "

Xiaofu was the guy who brought Lin Ting in just now, a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old.

If Lin Ting could keep them, they wouldn't have to look for work anymore. It's not easy to find work outside nowadays.

What's more, here they get paid twenty cents a day.

"Mrs. Lin, from now on, you will be Xiaofu's boss. Congratulations to the new boss."

Mrs. Lu had to go back to take care of Mr. Lu, so she couldn't stay here with Lin Ting.

After Lin Ting rented the place, she went to observe it again to see if there was anything that needed to be corrected and then made the changes.

The teahouse she opened is different from traditional teahouses. She wants to make it unique.

It mainly sells Chinese herbal teas and various teas that women like.

She also has many new ideas for pastries, such as trying out macarons, small cakes and the like.

After reading this, Lin Ting decided to design a theme decoration that would suit the style of her teahouse, and the name of the teahouse would also need to be changed.

This is crucial and must be carefully considered.

"Xiaofu, besides you, there are six other employees. Call them all over tomorrow and take down the teahouse sign.

Also, all the old curtains in the teahouse should be discarded and replaced with bamboo curtains. Also, the sanitation should be improved, especially in the tea room and the pastry shop in the backyard."
