Chapter 91 I will prepare three banquets for you for free
Master Cheng glanced at Butler Wu and sneered, "Your master and I have never been on good terms. Why bother putting on all this pretense?"
Butler Wu didn't expect that he would expose this layer of paper on the spot: "Master Cheng, since you say so, you'd better take care of yourself in the future." After saying that, he no longer paid any attention to Master Cheng.
When Wen Chengwen and the others arrived, they were still confused: "One by one."
Wen Zhenyi looked at them: "Dad, Mom."
"What's going on?"
"It's okay, it's just that the market here needs to be renovated and we need to move our shop."
Wen Chengwen turned around and looked at the market behind him: "The streets and houses are all very nice."
Ma Yinghe saw the people at the intersection and seemed to have discovered something. She pulled Wen Chengwen and said, "In that case, let's move the shop." Then she looked at Wen Zhenyi and said, "Yiyi, you go over first. We'll go pack up and then leave."
Wen Zhen nodded: "Okay, I'll go see the location of the store."
Butler Wu now had no reason to stop them from leaving, so he could only turn his head and look away, his nose not nose and eyes not eyes.
The housekeeper saw her come out and stepped forward with a smile: "Miss Wen, I will take you to see the empty shops. You can use whichever shop you like."
"Thank you, butler."
"Miss Wen, you're too polite."
Mr. Cheng came over at some point and said, "Miss Wen, did you make breakfast today?"
"I've done it, but the taste might be much worse due to this delay."
"Nothing, nothing, please give me two servings later."
"Okay." Wen Zhenyi looked at Master Cheng and said, "Thank you for today. I can prepare three banquets for you for free."
Mr. Cheng had never thought of asking her for anything in return, but what she said touched his heart, and he was reluctant to refuse: "Really?"
"Seriously, anytime is fine, but you need to tell me in advance."
"Okay, thank you Miss Wen."
"I should be the one thanking Master Cheng. If you hadn't helped me today, I might not have gotten away so quickly."
Master Cheng stroked his beard and said, "Even if I wasn't there, Mayor Meng wouldn't have stood idly by."
Wen Zhenyi also bowed to Mayor Meng and thanked him: "Thank you, Mayor Meng."
"No, you've taken care of my two children before. When I'm done, I'd like to ask for two bowls of porridge."
"Okay, I'll keep it for you two." After saying that, he followed the butler and left.
Mayor Meng looked at Master Cheng and said, "This girl has been very interesting since she stopped being stupid."
"I think so."
"It's a pity that my Yongchun is already engaged, otherwise I think she would be a good daughter-in-law."
Master Cheng raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "Hehe! You have no chance, but my Lesheng can still try."
Mayor Meng rolled his eyes at him and said, "Do you think I don't know what you're up to? Thinking of asking for it back so I can make you something delicious?"
"No, no, I really think this girl would be a good daughter-in-law. She can just keep that bastard in my family in check."
Wen Zhenyi didn't hear the conversation between the two people behind her, otherwise she would have said that it was unnecessary.
The butler took her to the street across the street, which was much quieter than the market on the other side, and many shops were closed.
"Butler, why is it so quiet here compared to the market?"
"This street and the market were built together. The master bought this street just to annoy Boss Wu. He didn't want him to dominate the street and take over the whole street."
Wen Zhenyi looked at some of the shops covered in dust and asked, "Is there no one renting them?"
"This isn't a central street. It's a street near the city wall. Business people wouldn't choose to open a shop here. The few shops you see now are all owned by the master."
“Then why not hold a market?”
The butler smiled and said, "The master took over half of the street, but he didn't want to make things too awkward, so he didn't put his heart into managing the shops here. That's why the street has become so desolate."
"It seems that if it weren't for me today, Master Cheng wouldn't have fallen out with Boss Wu."
The chief steward smiled faintly and said nothing. Although their master and Boss Wu had nothing to do with each other, he did not expect them to fall out like this.
"Miss Wen, you can choose any of these closed shops, but you have to wait a moment. I have asked the servant to go to the mansion to get the key."
"I'll take a look around first."
Many people here have already started looking for a good place to set up stalls on the streets. You know, they have to pay to set up stalls in the market across the street. Now that it is free to set up stalls here, even a fool would know what to choose.
The originally deserted streets became lively because of their joining.
The hawking sounds can be heard from far away. I believe that soon this street will be even busier than the market.
While Wen Zhenyi was waiting for the servant to get the key, he also took a look at the shops on this street. There were dozens of shops, big and small.
Only five shops were open, and most of the other shops were empty.
She looked at the location of the shops at the street corner. Next to it was the main road leading into the city gate, and on the other side was the market. There were many windows on both sides of the street.
"Butler, how big is this shop?"
The butler thought for a moment and said, "This shop is slightly bigger than the one in front of you, and there are a few more rooms in the backyard."
"Is there a well?"
"Yes, it's just that no one has used it for a long time and needs to be cleaned again."
"That's all right."
At this time, the servant came running with the key and handed it to the butler.
Wen Chengwen and the others packed up their things and temporarily placed them at the street corner to sell today's breakfast first.
Many diners were already waiting on the side, and some diners helped to get their food, which saved them a lot of trouble.
Mr. Cheng and Mayor Meng also came to eat, and the people gave them the food first.
Ma Yinghe didn't take their money: "Although I don't know what happened today, I still want to thank you two."
Mr. Cheng and Mayor Meng did not mind, and sat on the chairs they brought and ate porridge on the street.
Wen Zhenyi followed the butler into the store. The hall was 20 to 30 square meters larger than the previous store and looked much more spacious than the other one.
There were three more rooms in the backyard, with a toilet, bathroom, kitchen, and a well, and there was also a place to park the ox cart.
The kitchen is also more spacious than the other one. There are four stoves here, which is enough for her to use. There is also a brick-built workbench in the middle, which is very sturdy.
She was even more satisfied with this shop than the previous one. When she opened the window of the shop in the hall, she could see the hustle and bustle of the streets on both sides.
It is very pleasant to be able to feel the fireworks of the world.
The housekeeper saw her carefully checking it out and said, "Miss Wen, if you are not satisfied, we can look at other shops."
