Ye Erniu shook his head, "I thought you, little sister, would definitely know."
There was no way around it; ever since his younger sister came home, she had been handling everything with ease and confidence, so he subconsciously felt that she had almost finished preparing for this matter.
Ye Panjiu shook her head, asked a passerby for directions, and then walked away.
There were two brokers in Qingshui County. One of them was closer to the other, so the five of them came to that place first.
There was only a small flag hanging on the shop with the word "tooth" written on it.
Ye Panjiu looked at it and touched her own teeth; the dentist was still too terrifying.
Ye Taohua was the first to enter the shop.
The buck-toothed waiter was dozing off at the counter, his head almost hitting it.
Ye Taohua found it amusing and thought the man resembled a rabbit.
Ye Panjiu glanced at her lightly, "Shopkeeper."
The waiter jumped up immediately, "Manager!"
Ye Panjiu: "..."
This is exactly the scene of getting caught by the boss while slacking off at work.
"Aren't you the shopkeeper?"
After looking around and not seeing the shopkeeper, the waiter breathed a sigh of relief and lazily sat down again.
"No, I'm just a waiter. Are you looking to buy a house, sir?"
"Yes, I want to buy a shop. It doesn't need to be very big, but it would be best if it had a backyard."
The waiter thought for a moment, "There are at least five shops with backyards. The smallest shop can only accommodate three people, while the largest can hold up to twenty. When you say 'not big,' do you mean..."
Ye Panjiu thought for a moment, "A shop that can accommodate five people is fine. How much are these shops?"
"It can accommodate about five people, and the size of the backyard varies. The price ranges from thirty to fifty taels." The waiter picked up his cup of water and took a sip.
Ye Daniu and Ye Erniu were both very surprised; so much money!
Does my little sister have that much money?
Ye Panjiu had a better idea of what to do, but since buying a shop was such an important matter, it was essential to compare prices from multiple vendors. "Thank you, we'll take another look."
The waiter waved his hand and closed his eyes again.
After the group had walked quite a distance, Old Mrs. Ye pouted and said, "I just don't think this family is good. They're so young, but they have no energy or spirit."
This isn't how you run a business; it'll be shut down sooner or later.
Ye Panjiu was both amused and exasperated; in any case, the owner of this brokerage shop hadn't managed his staff very well.
"I've never seen anyone so sleepy, Mother. Doesn't he sleep at night?" Ye Taohua pouted, puzzled.
Ye Taohua patted her head, "Don't stare at others so rudely next time."
Ye Taohua stuck out her tongue. "Oh."
Ye Erniu wanted to say a few words in defense of Tao Hua, but Ye Panjiu just glanced at him.
Ye Erniu immediately stood up straight and shut his mouth.
This girl's eyes are quite intimidating.
The five of them turned left and right and walked for another fifteen minutes before arriving at another brokerage shop.
The shouts and calls created a lively atmosphere.
Ye Taohua was chewing on candied hawthorn, Grandma Ye was eating soft and sticky glutinous rice cake, Ye Daniu was eating meat buns one after another, and Ye Erniu was peeling roasted sweet potatoes.
Ye Panjiu glanced back at the four people, then stepped into the shop.
The shop was bustling with activity, with at least a dozen waiters attending to customers.
"Oh, distinguished guest! What would you like to buy today? Houses in the county are on sale recently, the prices are the best available. Our shop's prices are the most affordable in Qingshui County, no one dares to say they are second to none!" A young man in a light blue cotton shirt, carrying a teacup, greeted him.
Ye Panjiu was a little thirsty, so she drank a cup of tea. The tea was still warm, which showed that the service was quite good.
Without even asking herself why she was a VIP, she repeated the shop she wanted to buy.
The waiter was brimming with enthusiasm, "To be honest, esteemed guest, there are dozens of these shops. Do you have time now? I can show you around one by one right away."
How much does it cost?
The waiter was still smiling. "The prices in the shops vary greatly. Once you see them, you'll find they're worth the price."
Ye Panjiu looked at him and said, "Tell me the price range first, I have limited time."
Xiao Er's hand twitched. He had always suggested taking buyers to see properties first, because this would increase their time expenditure. With higher sunk costs, almost 99% of customers would buy from him.
This time, we've run into a tough customer.
"I'm sorry to trouble you with this question, but the price ranges from fifty to one hundred taels. However, trust me, it's definitely a great deal."
Ye Panjiu shook her head. The expenses of the shop's employees alone were enormous, so it seemed that the house had also increased in value.
She smiled and said, "Sorry to bother you, I've decided to take another look."
The waiter followed her persistently, chattering, "Forty, look at my brain, I just didn't remember there was a shop that sells forty taels. You'll have to take a look before you decide, esteemed guest."
Ye Panjiu ignored him, and even after she walked out of the shop, the waiter continued talking.
"Ninety percent of the houses in Qingshui County are located below our shop. You'll definitely be at a disadvantage if you go to other shops, so please don't leave."
"Honorable guest, you can't treat people like this! I've explained so much to you, if you don't buy, aren't you just wasting my time?"
Ye Panjiu's face darkened, and she raised her voice to ask, "Did I ask you to tell me? This is such a big store, and you're forcing me to buy something?"
The waiter hadn't expected the seemingly gentle and virtuous young lady to suddenly become so difficult. His face immediately broke into a smile. "Honorable guest, please don't be impatient. I don't mean to force you to buy anything. Please don't rush me."
Ye Panjiu ignored him completely and continued speaking loudly, "I just came from another brokerage shop. They were much more willing to negotiate prices than yours, and their prices were at least half the price!"
The previously bustling crowd instantly quieted down, and many guests who were about to go to see the apartments stopped in their tracks.
"Is what the young lady said true?" someone asked directly.
The waiter was sweating profusely. "Sir, please stop joking. You clearly can't afford a shop, so why would you go to that shop? There's only one person there; it's obviously too expensive and they don't have any business."
Ye Panjiu nodded, "Indeed, it's just one person, so the wages are less. Your family employs so many people, and they still have to take a cut from the wages to pay you."
As for whether she can afford it or not, she wouldn't be so foolish as to take out her money in public just because of a few words from a waiter.
The guests started whispering among themselves, nodding in agreement, all agreeing that Ye Panjiu's words made sense.
Ye Panjiu ignored all of that and rushed towards Ye Daniu and Ye Erniu who were walking over.
"Little sister, did this family bully you?" Ye Erniu said, sticking out his neck.
Ye Panjiu patted his shoulder, "No, it's just too annoying. Let's go buy from the supplier above. They're not so secretive about prices there, they'll be more straightforward."
"Actually, I quite liked that uncle from earlier," Ye Taohua said with a smile.
She thought that person was funny.
Everyone else naturally listened to Ye Panjiu.
The five of them went back.
The other four people received another batch of snacks, and their mouths were bulging with food.
The lazy waiter opened his eyes upon hearing the voice, "It's you guys again?"
He showed no emotion whatsoever because the others had said they would think about it again.
