In the years of famine, in troubled times, the koi sweet wife is omnipotent
Chapter 191: Opening a shop and doing business
If she had known this would happen, she would not have come here for the time being.
Now we are trapped here and can only return to the barracks at least tomorrow.
There's nothing else to worry about, mainly because the tanks are parked over there, and my best friend Tang Jiamin is there too.
"Wanwan, what's wrong with you? Aren't you going back to the barracks? Why aren't you leaving yet?"
Seeing that she didn't leave for a long time, Xia Zian walked over with a hammer in his hand and asked curiously.
Xia Wanwan looked back at her father and said helplessly, "The Heavenly Dao has repaired the loophole. I only have one chance to travel through time each day. So I can't go back today. I have to go tomorrow."
Xia Zian heard this and patted her shoulder distressedly, "That's good. It saves you from being so tired all day."
Although what my daughter did were big things, there is no parent in the world who does not love their children. They all hope that their children will be healthy, happy, and live a peaceful life.
"Dad's busy now. Next we have to put up the steel bars, pour the cement, and cut the bricks. The villagers here are very smart and hardworking. They study very seriously. I believe it won't take long to build the house."
Xia Zian took the hammer and turned around to go back to work.
"Okay, go get busy first."
Xia Wanwan nodded and said "hmm".
"Let's go to the capital first!"
Xia Wanwan thought that she had been here for so long but had never been to the capital, so she planned to go for a walk.
Mainly, she wanted to find some shops and restaurants to do business.
Thinking of this, Xia Wanwan said hello to the village chief and went to the capital.
When Xia Qingqing heard that she was going to the city, she packed up after teaching and followed her with a bag on her back.
Because there was spiritual energy in the space, Xia Wanwan went to see Dahong's sister and found that it still had no signs of breaking out of the shell, so before leaving, she put it into the space and placed it at the location of the spiritual spring so that it could absorb more spiritual energy, hoping that it could break out of the shell as soon as possible.
This way Dahong doesn’t have to worry about her sister anymore.
Xia Qingqing looked at the shop that was about to close, but saw red lanterns and small red flowers hanging everywhere. She asked curiously, "Sister! Is there some kind of happy event in the capital? Why are there lights and decorations everywhere? Every house has small red lanterns or big red flowers hanging. It looks very festive."
Xia Wanwan came to a restaurant. Seeing that the business was not good and the shop was being transferred, she brought her sister in and prepared to buy the shop.
Hearing her sister's question, she shook her head and said, "I don't know either. I guess there's some happy event in the royal family. Otherwise, who would have the ability to make the people of the whole city hang up festive lanterns and red flowers?"
The shopkeeper heard what they were saying and took a closer look. Their language was somewhat different from that of the capital of Jin State. Although he could understand them, the tone of voice was different, so he knew they were from other places.
So he stepped forward and explained to the two, "You two don't know, this is a happy event that His Majesty specially distributed to celebrate the return of the eldest princess who had been missing for over twenty years."
Xia Wanwan was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion, "Shouldn't your majesty's eldest princess be Princess Yong'an? How can there be an eldest princess at the age of twenty?"
If there is an eldest princess before her, shouldn't Princess Yong'an be the second princess?
Forget it, she doesn’t want to know about the royal family’s affairs. Maybe there are some secrets in it.
The shopkeeper continued to explain, "It is said that after His Majesty and the Empress gave birth to the eldest princess, she remained ill. After the full moon, she left the palace to pray for blessings, but someone framed her and caused her to go missing. They searched everywhere but couldn't find any news of the eldest princess, so they assumed she was dead. Who would have thought that an official, while investigating the people's situation, suddenly discovered the jade pendant around the eldest princess' neck? At the time, she and her family were begging on the streets, and they had truly suffered."
"Oh~"
Xia Wanwan said "oh" lightly, and didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she looked at his restaurant and asked, "Boss, how much silver do you need to buy this shop?"
When the shopkeeper saw her coming to buy the shop, he immediately smiled and said, "Miss! Don't blame me for asking too much. This shop will cost at least three hundred taels of gold. The interior decoration is all made of high-quality wood. It's just that the market has been bad in recent years, and people are not able to eat enough. We can't buy much food, so the shop is struggling to survive. Otherwise, I would not be willing to sell it."
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he looked around reluctantly.
If he wasn't forced to do so, he wouldn't want to sell it.
"If you take over and want to continue running the restaurant, I advise you to have a way to get supplies, otherwise you will die."
The shopkeeper was very conscientious. Even in this situation, he still remembered to remind Xia Wanwan.
Xia Wanwan could sense his kindness and smiled slightly, saying, "Thank you for the reminder, shopkeeper. You don't have to worry about the supplies. It's just that the silver, three hundred taels of gold is really too high. Can you give me less?"
She only had a hundred taels of gold in her space, which she had won in a lottery before, and then she used all the money to buy supplies.
So she is actually very poor now.
The shopkeeper pursed his lips in embarrassment and said, "Miss! I see you're here to buy the shop sincerely, but I'm really not asking for a high price. I spent almost three hundred taels of gold just to decorate this shop. Adding in all the other miscellaneous expenses and the transfer fee, I think three hundred taels of gold is a fair price."
The shopkeeper said this, looked at the worker who had been with him for several years, and then looked at Xia Wanwan: "How about this, I'll give you thirty taels less gold, but I have a request."
Xia Wanwan asked: "What request?"
The shopkeeper sighed and said sadly, "It's not an excessive request. I just hope that after you take over the shop, you can continue to keep these waiters and workers here."
After hearing this, Xia Wanwan suddenly had a better impression of him. "These are all trivial matters. I don't plan to fire them all. Isn't it good to have ready-made workers? If I fire them all, I'll have to find new people, which is very troublesome. If you are willing to stay and help manage the restaurant, I would be more than happy to do that."
