Su Sijin left the government office with doubts.
She always felt that Feng Zixuan was hinting at something, and at the end Su Sijin couldn't help but ask, "Is he entrusted by someone?"
Feng Zixuan just smiled and said nothing.
Well! Since Feng Zixuan is unwilling to speak out, perhaps there is something he cannot express.
Regardless of whether it was a case of giving fish to a man or not, she was very happy. Looking at the several red deeds in her hand, she was extremely happy.
This leak was such a surprise.
Even if Feng Zixuan said that he could delay the payment for some time, how could Su Sijin have the audacity to default on the payment?
It’s not like she can’t afford it.
Even if she didn't use her money, there was still the 20,000 taels of silver notes given by Lu Changgong.
After leaving the government office, the group found the shop mentioned in the red deed. It was indeed quite good, though a little too old. However, it only needed a little refurbishment.
As for the courtyard with four entrances, Feng Zixuan would have to wait some time before he could go in to check it out. After all, he had to shut up the common people.
Su Sijin agreed deeply. After all, Wen Qiang had just been imprisoned and those industries had just been sealed off. If outsiders knew about it, someone would take it over, which might be detrimental to Feng Zixuan.
Besides, she also needs to carefully plan the types of business to be run in the shop. In fact, the most critical issue is the lack of manpower.
If shops were opened in Ganzhou Prefecture, Ningdu County, and Anfu Town, who would run them, who would look after them, and who would be responsible for them would be rather tricky issues.
She couldn't mobilize so many people from Meijiang Village, or she couldn't find so many people she absolutely trusted.
Su Sijin did not hide the purpose of going to the government office from Zheng Jie and others.
Zeng Zhipeng naturally did not hide it, but Su Sijin still deliberately emphasized that the owner of these shops was not her, Su Sijin, nor the Lu family.
At least, the current situation does not allow her or anyone related to Lu Changgong to be exposed.
"Village Chief Zeng, you know we originally arrived here as refugees. If people knew that a former 'convict' had purchased these properties on such a large scale, what would the world think?"
People are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being fat. The fort is already eye-catching enough.
If others knew who these shops belonged to, I was worried that it would cause some trouble.
Therefore, she decided that she would stay behind the scenes and let someone she trusted take care of it for her.
Zheng Jie agreed. "Ajin is right. We have just arrived in Lingnan and our foundation is not stable. We are all defenseless women and children. We must not let outsiders know about our trip to the government office today."
Shen Tingyun glanced at the 'unarmed' Su Sijin.
Su Sijin seemed to sense something, and in response to Su Sijin's gaze, he winked at her mischievously.
Zeng Zhipeng nodded, "Madam, don't worry. Although I'm a bit rough, I'm very straightforward and I know how serious this is. I won't let out a single word of what the young lady and Madam have told me."
Su Sijin, Zheng Jie and others walked around the street for a long time, but didn't find any furniture that they were satisfied with.
The price is not a problem, it’s just that the workmanship and style are not what Su Sijin wants.
She told the shopkeeper the style she wanted, and the shopkeeper called a master carpenter, but since he didn't understand, he couldn't make the furniture she wanted.
"I think the third one was okay. How about, Ajin, let's go there and have a look?" Zheng Jie really felt that the workmanship and paint of that store were quite exquisite.
Shen Tingyun agreed deeply, “Aunt Zheng is right, I think it’s good too.”
Although Shen Tingyun didn't understand what the furniture Su Sijin was talking about was like, and she couldn't imagine it, she asked more than ten carpenters, but none of them could make it!
Su Sijin frowned and thought. She wanted a Simmons bed, she also wanted a comfortable sofa, an exquisite dressing table, a unique and elegant desk, and what she wanted most was a wardrobe and a cloakroom in her boudoir.
Combining modern cognition with local craftsmanship, we create unique furniture that is comfortable to look at and even more comfortable to live in.
She wanted to decorate the room to make it more beautiful and comfortable, but there was no carpenter who could do it.
"Let's wait and see!" Su Sijin rejected their proposal.
That store is good, but it’s not what Su Sijin wants. If she doesn’t find it in the end... then that store will be the last choice!
Su Sijin entered one shop after another without giving up, but the answer she got was that they were powerless.
Su Sijin walked back dejectedly. She would be moving into the new house soon and could not delay the furniture any longer.
It must be finalized within the next two days at the latest. Su Sijin felt that she had made it very clear, so why couldn't the carpenter do it?
Is it because of the lack of drawings?
If this was the reason, she would go back and draw it out and have the carpenter take a look at it.
If you really can't do it, then you can only go with the flow.
Su Sijin and her group were heading back home, but unexpectedly a scream stopped Su Sijin in her tracks.
"Benefactor?"
Su Sijin looked up and saw that there were many people around, so she thought that they were not calling her.
Just as she was about to continue walking, a sudden and urgent voice sounded behind her, "My benefactor, my benefactor, I finally see you. You've been so hard to find!"
After the man finished speaking, he excitedly wanted to get closer, but Zeng Zhipeng blocked him from approaching.
"Stop! Stop making trouble." Zeng Zhipeng scolded the man.
After hearing this, the man became even more anxious and kept trying to persuade and explain to Zeng Zhipeng, but Zeng Zhipeng would never believe him.
I remember that person stomping his feet.
The old man stood on tiptoe and looked behind Zeng Zhipeng, explaining anxiously, "Benefactor, it's me!"
Zheng Jie grabbed Su Sijin and shook her head, not letting Su Sijin step forward to face the old man's entanglement.
After Su Sijin comforted Zheng Jie, she walked up to the old man.
The old man was probably in his fifties, with half white hair, an old face, a slightly hunched body, and a sincere and anxious look in his eyes.
