That's the benefit of power; having power can indeed make people submit.
Here, once a contract is signed, everyone is absolutely obligated to abide by it; she treats the contract as the binding law of Jincheng.
This is the best way to regulate the behavior of these merchants.
People only have the right to reside there, and no other right to interfere with the housing, let alone any other rights regarding the shops. All they have are employee benefits.
She was thrilled that she had come up with such a great idea, and she suddenly felt like a genius.
Yu Rong paused for a moment. If it required Islail's involvement, then he would have to inform Islail and tell him about this matter.
Fortunately, he didn't have to make another trip. He could simply use his tamed black eagle to deliver messages. This was one of the gains from his trip to Islail. He had already communicated with the king, and any future exchanges would be conducted using the black eagle.
"Okay, I'll let them know. From now on, we'll use Black Hawk to send messages."
“Hey...that makes things easier.” Anle grinned and said, “I’ll write the letter, and you can send it to me once it’s finished.”
The auction at the neighboring Red City Auction House was temporarily put on hold, and Anle planned to first wander around Jincheng to look at the shops and fertile fields given to him by the Cui family.
Anle took He Yusheng with her this time.
Yu Rong, whom he hadn't seen for quite some time, appeared and followed An Le like a shadow, which dampened He Yusheng's spirits.
He had no choice but to come back just when Lele was about to go to Jincheng. He could have gone out and had some fun with Lele, but taking this expressionless guy out with him ruined his mood.
This guy with facial paralysis showed up just to spoil his fun.
Once inside the city, they headed straight for the shop. Anle was a little surprised by the shop's location; it was indeed in a prime location.
Such a good place, if it were in its heyday, it could certainly have been used for some business.
The roads are wide and well-connected, making transportation exceptionally convenient; several carriages can travel side-by-side on the streets at the same time.
It was several times wider than the main street of the commercial district in her town.
Moreover, these shops are all quite large, each one being as large as the combined area of Her Paradise Dessert Shop.
This greatly excited Anle.
It's such a great deal to get these shops by paying off a debt of 1,500 taels of silver.
"If only I could buy a shop like this with this little bit of silver," Anle couldn't help but sigh to himself.
If I could buy all these shops, demolish them all, rebuild them, and transform them into the ideal place I envision, just thinking about it would feel incredibly satisfying, exhilarating, and fulfilling.
"Ah, what a pity, none of the shops on this street belong to me. I really want to buy them all."
Upon hearing this, Yu Rong turned his head to look at An Le, his eyes flickering slightly.
He Yusheng didn't know how much wealth Anle had, but Yu Rong had gone to the auction house with Anle and naturally knew that she had a considerable amount of assets.
Buying this entire street would have been a pipe dream in the past, but now it's a piece of cake!
Many dental practices are now looking to divest themselves and push all these businesses away.
Unfortunately, no one is willing to buy the shops here.
This Jin City has long been abandoned and no one dares to take it over.
The reason why all these industries ended up in the hands of brokers is due to the Luo family.
When the Luo family moved away with a group of aristocratic families in Jincheng, all their properties, shops, and residences were sold off cheaply to real estate brokers, which made the brokers the owners of these properties.
They were initially excited to be able to acquire the properties cheaply, but the current turbulent situation in Jincheng makes it unsuitable for further development, so no one is willing to buy the properties here. This has now become a headache for the real estate brokerage.
However, from the perspective of the brokerage firm, it was a headache, but—
Yu Rong's gaze lingered on An Le.
For this little girl, this was like a windfall, a stroke of good fortune falling from the sky.
If she's planning to redevelop this Golden City, then acquiring all the industries within it would be a piece of cake.
You don't need to spend much time or effort signing any contracts. As long as you're willing to pay, there will definitely be a broker willing to sell it, and you can definitely get it at a low price.
During her trip to Jincheng, Anle didn't just focus on her business; she also took the opportunity to browse the shops and bring back many trinkets and jewelry for Anning and the others.
In a jewelry shop, Anle, accompanied by Yu Rong and He Yusheng who looked like door gods, was haggling with the shopkeeper's wife over a white jade hairpin. The white jade hairpin didn't look particularly good, but it was valued for its simple elegance.
She felt that this would suit her older sister Anjing very well, as the style was simple and unpretentious, so she decided to buy it and give it to Anjing.
"Shopkeeper, can you give me a discount? This isn't any good jade, it's just ordinary jade. Two hundred coins is too expensive. How about one hundred coins? I'll take it for one hundred coins."
Just as Anle finished bargaining, a figure in red, like a butterfly, fluttered into the room and stood beside her. A quick glance from the corner of her eye immediately caught Anle's attention.
Um... isn't this He Yusheng's cousin?
He glanced at Cui Zhiling without leaving a trace, and his gaze fell on He Yusheng behind him.
How do these two manage to treat each other like air when they meet?
"Madam shopkeeper, bring me this red coral hairpin, I want it." Cui Zhiling stared at a coral hairpin displayed on the counter with shining eyes.
She had her eye on this coral hairpin for a long time, but recently the monthly allowance from the household had been less, and she was too short of money to buy it.
Now that she has finally saved enough money, she wants to buy this hairpin and take it to Hongcheng to find Brother Jingyue. This hairpin will definitely look beautiful on her head and brighten her up considerably. Brother Jingyue will definitely notice it.
Thinking of this, Cui Zhiling couldn't help but show a shy, girlish blush on her face.
The shopkeeper looked at Cui Zhiling with a troubled expression. "Miss Cui, I'm really sorry, but this little girl has already bought this hairpin and is just waiting to pay for it together later."
Why don't you take a look at some other hairpins? How about this peony hairpin over there? It's particularly eye-catching.
