In that inn full of hacks

Chapter 66 Buying a Shop

The two of them entered Nanping City with the flow of people, first went to the Silver Building, pretending to buy jewelry for his wife, spent most of the day there, and wandered around the downtown area for most of the day after they came out. Walking to the south of the city, Chen Mo saw the shop that he wanted to sell, and felt that the size was not bad, so he leaned into Lin Hanzhi's arms and said, "Master, this shop is not bad, why don't you buy it, he likes the flower garden on his roof."

Lin Hanzhi experienced the feeling of his lover acting coquettishly on his chest, it was very good, this little money fan was quite into the show, and he could act as husband and wife more if he had nothing to do in the future, maybe he got used to it by pretending, so he didn't have to be so hard to beg for relatives .

Seeing that Lin Hanzhi didn't respond, Chen Mo reached out and pinched his waist secretly and continued to act like a spoiled child: "Sir, how are you?"

Lin Hanzhi gritted his teeth and endured the pain, and even put on a doting look on his face, nodded Chen Mo's nose and responded: "Okay, I'm up to you, I'll buy you flowers for viewing."

Passers-by heard the conversation between the husband and wife and felt that there were three big characters floating all over the street, prodigal son.

The two entered the lobby, and a middle-aged man was making an acquittal at the counter, when he saw the person coming, he rushed up to greet him: "Guest officer, do you want to have a drink?"

Lin Hanzhi replied, "We are here to buy a shop."

"Well, the guest officer invites the inner room to talk." The man in the middle led the two into the inner room and made a pot of tea.

"The shopkeeper's name."

"If your surname is Wang, just call me Old Wang."

"It's Boss Wang, please be polite." Lin Hanzhi arched his hands and said, "My surname is Lin, and this is Mrs. Lin."

"I don't dare to be the boss." Lao Wang waved his hand and said, "I'm the manager of the shop next door. The boss of this shop is seriously ill. The shop's affairs are the same as what Lao Wang said."

Chen Mo's head was quickly flooded with bullet screens: Old Wang next door, Old Wang next door, Old Wang next door, Old Wang next door, Old Wang next door...

Seeing that Lao Wang's face was reddened by Chen Mo, Lin Hanzhi hurriedly covered his eyes, woke up the wandering people and asked: "Madam must be thirsty after playing all the way, drink some tea to moisten your throat."

"Ah? Thank you, Mr. Chen Mo." Chen Mo took the tea that was handed to him and sipped it. It was really unpalatable, but he couldn't say that he had to buy other people's stores and bargain, so he couldn't be angry at the beginning.

Lin Hanzhi asked: "Boss Wang, when Mr. Lin came in, he saw that the decoration inside the hall was very good, and the smell of the wine was not considered inferior. Why did he sell the store?"

Manager Wang sighed and said, "Hey, the whole city knows about this, and Lao Wang has nothing to hide."

Chen Mo looked at Guanshi Wang with bright eyes, and was ready to listen to gossip.

Lao Wang is an honest man, his face blushed when he was stared at by a beautiful lady, he tried his best to look back at Lin Hanzhi, and Lin Hanzhi said to Chen Mo in his heart: Be restrained, you will be fine if you run away from him Listen to the gossip.

Chen Mo obediently lowered his head in a coy gesture, but his ears moved sensitively.

Guanshi Wang felt a little relieved when he saw that Mrs. Lin was no longer staring at him: "Ahem, the mistress of the Li family in Nanping City is a strange woman, and all the guests must have heard of it."

Chen Mo raised his head and said excitedly, "I've heard it."

With a wave of Lin Hanzhi's hand, a pile of snacks and dried fruits appeared on the table: "Madam must be a little hungry, first use some snack mats to fill your stomach."

"Oh." Chen Mo picked up a big apple and lowered his head to gnaw it.

Steward Wang wiped off his sweat and continued: "The owner of this shop, surnamed Han, died early, leaving only the proprietress to live with a daughter. There are matchmakers coming to the door. When the proprietress is waiting to carefully choose a son-in-law, the matchmaker hired by the Li family also comes to the door. She wants to bring in the girl from the Han family to be the No. 13 concubine. Although the Han family is not a wealthy family, life is not bad. Yes, why would you give someone an innocent daughter as a concubine, let alone that Mr. Li has already lost eight concubines, that would be a pit of fire!"

Chen Mo was so surprised that he forgot to continue eating apples. He didn't know whether he should lament that Young Master Li's stallion also lamented that he had killed his wife. It turned out that his mother's broom star life can still be passed on, and one can kill others and the other can kill his wife.

"If you don't marry, you can refuse. How dare he come and snatch her?"

Lin Hanzhi said affirmatively: "Master Liu, the parent officer of Nanping City, is upright and clear-sighted, and they dare not rob him by force."

"They don't dare to snatch it." Manager Wang sighed: "But there are some things Mrs. Liu can't control. As soon as the mistress of the Li family heard that the proprietress rejected the Li family's marriage proposal, she came to visit the house that day. Everyone knows Mrs. Li can't see her, but Li The madam has some cultivation, the proprietress, an ordinary person, can't hide from her, she is forced to look directly at her, from the next day, the business of this Han Ji tavern has plummeted."

Chen Mo's eyes widened: "It's so effective, so no regular customers come to the door?"

"It's strange to say that the mother and daughter of the Han family are warm and kind. There are many old customers who are willing to come to the door, but they don't want to buy it for no reason when they enter the door. Over time, there are no customers in the tavern. Even if everyone is willing to help, it is impossible. This tavern It is the source of livelihood for the mother and daughter, and the proprietress fell ill in a hurry, spent all her savings, and her condition did not improve, so she had to sell the shop in desperation."

Lin Hanzhi took a sip of tea and said, "Master Liu really can't control this matter. No one did anything or force him. He just came to visit. There is no law that prohibits this."

Chen Mo couldn't bear this kind of oppressive person the most, he stood up abruptly, slapped the table and said loudly: "It's unreasonable, I bought this store, I can't beat his Li family, my surname is not Chen!"

Steward Wang trembled in fright, why is the lady who was gentle and gentle just now so bold and unrestrained!

Lin Hanzhi pressed Chen Mo to appease Guanshi Wang: "Don't be surprised, Guanshi Wang, my wife is lively and jealous, and she has no malicious intentions."

Guanshi Wang immediately cupped his hands and said, "Ah, Mrs. Zun is really a hero among contemporary women."

Chen Mo waved his hand boldly: "It's easy to say."

Lin Hanzhi hinted at Chen Mo: "Madam, we are my daughter's family after all."

Chen Mo sat down embarrassingly, and put on a gentle and elegant posture. When he got excited, he forgot that he was still pretending to be a woman.

Manager Wang complimented, "Your Madam is warm-hearted and jealous, she is worthy of being your wife."

Chen Mo stared blankly at Lin Han and thought, which one of your eyes can see that it is the wife of everyone, and you don't even have to take a carriage when you go out.

Lin Hanzhi decided to change the subject: "Steward Wang, may I ask what the price of this shop is?"

"Mr. Lin, to tell you the truth, this shop is attached to the title deed. According to the price in Nanping City, it is worth at least 2000 taels of silver, but no one would dare to accept it due to the power of the Li family. If you want it sincerely, how about 1000 taels of silver."

"1000 taels!" Chen Mo couldn't help exclaiming, he hadn't paid much attention before, he didn't expect the house price in this world to be so low, and the room rate charged by his own inn is really not low, no wonder Chi Hai always calls himself a profiteer.

Seeing Chen Mo's reaction, Steward Wang thought Chen Mo was too expensive, so he gritted his teeth and said cruelly, "Forget it, if madam thinks it's too expensive, how about 800 taels of silver? It really can't be too low, and it's not easy for the mother and daughter of the Han family."

Chen Mo came back to his senses and said, "No, no, it's not expensive, not expensive at all, just 2000 taels of silver, we agree."

Steward Wang bowed deeply excitedly: "Then I would like to thank Madam, this has helped their mother and daughter a lot."

Lin Hanzhi looked at Chen Mo in amazement, it was really not easy for this little money fanatic to still be not too expensive.

"Steward Wang, can you take me and my wife to visit the proprietress?" Chen Mo suddenly wanted to help them.

Guanshi Wang asked suspiciously, "Madam, do you want to?"

"If you want to help them, it's not easy for orphans and widows as you said."

Steward Wang said excitedly: "Ma'am is really a bodhisattva, but the proprietress is seriously ill. I'm afraid that if she passes the illness, it will harm Madam."

Chen Mo waved his hands, not paying much attention to it: "It's okay, my husband and I are both practitioners, we are not afraid of getting sick, and Guanshi Wang will lead the way."

"The mother and daughter are recuperating in the backyard. If that's the case, please follow me." Steward Wang turned and led the way after speaking.

In the backyard, Chen Mo stopped Steward Wang's intention to call people, and asked Lin Hanzhi to perform invisibility, and the three of them went in to find a place where they could see the indoor situation.

Steward Wang was suddenly frightened by his invisibility, and followed subconsciously with his head dizzy. Chen Mo snickered inwardly as he looked at Steward Wang's appearance.

Thinking of Feijian, Chen Mo suddenly remembered that his cultivation could drive Feijian long ago, but he hadn't learned it yet, and he thought that he had never learned the invisibility technique. Thinking about it, he had a cultivation base but hadn't learned any spells. It's like having a kitchen like the back kitchen of a five-star hotel, but you can't cook at all.

Lin Hanzhi sensed that Chen Mo seemed a little depressed, so he stroked his head to comfort him. Chen Mo shook his head and stared at Lin Hanzhi, why do you feel like that, pet the puppy.

Lin Hanzhi was wronged, he had never met someone he liked before, and he had only touched the puppy's head.

Wang Guanshi came back to his senses and asked softly: "This is it, both of you?"

"Hush." ​​Chen Mo signaled him to be quiet, and pointed to the inner room for him to observe together.

It was not until the sun was setting that Chen Mo said that he could go in. Lin Hanzhi lifted the invisibility of the three of them, and signaled Wang Guan to go in first and communicate. After all, there were only two mothers and daughters, and the three big men rushed in. disagree.

Steward Wang went to the room and raised his voice to call out: "Sister-in-law of the Han family, girl Qin, here is a distinguished guest."

A beautiful girl in yellow came out to greet her: "It's Uncle Wang."

Wang Guanshi smiled and said to the girl in yellow: "Girl Qin, a distinguished guest has come to our door, hurry up and make tea and water to welcome the guest."

"Hey, honored guests, please come in." The little girl was clean and neat, with a clear and sweet voice, which Chen Mo liked very much.

Chen Mo cast a gloomy glance at Lin Hanzhi, blaming him for bending himself, otherwise such a lovely girl would have to ask to be married back home, and it was his dog's tail that made him miss Baihua.

Lin Hanzhi's heart trembled as he was being waited on. Is this the rhythm of kneeling on the washboard again?

A middle-aged woman with a sick face walked out slowly while leaning on the wall: "Steward Wang is here, who are these two?"

"Sister-in-law, these two are shopkeepers. They are a good-hearted couple with a high level of cultivation. You two have met noble people." Steward Wang was really happy for them.

When Mrs. Han heard that she was here to buy a shop, she rushed her lover into the room: "Please come inside, nobleman."
