As a brother who loves his sister, it is natural for him to be concerned about his sister's concerns. Seeing that Su Wenyue was anxious, Su Hengyi did not delay and immediately sent someone to inquire. He had extensive connections in the business world and quickly found several suitable places. He explained the locations and situations and let Su Wenyue decide for herself.
"I think both locations are pretty good and each has its own advantages. This place has a larger flow of people and is located in a busy location on the main street, but the place is a little small. As for the other one, the place is big enough, but the location is a little off, but it's not a big inconvenience." Su Hengyi pointed out the advantages and disadvantages of the two places to Su Wenyue one by one. This was also because time was a little tight, otherwise he would definitely be able to find a better place.
"Okay, let's go over and take a look now. If it's suitable, we'll decide." Su Wenyue was also an impatient person. After hearing what Su Hengyi said, she couldn't wait a moment and wanted to go and see it immediately. Besides, time was indeed a bit tight.
Su Hengyi was a busy man. He put aside other things and accompanied his sister to the two places. After inspecting them one by one, Su Wenyue was not very satisfied with either place. After careful consideration, she finally chose the larger one. On the one hand, this place was bigger and the price was more suitable. It didn't matter if it was a little off the beaten track. Anyway, as long as the reputation was spread, no one would come. "
"Brother, I think we should just settle on this one. Let's sign the contract now so we can hire workers as soon as possible. We have to renovate this place inside and out, which will take a lot of time."
"It's good that you like it. I will arrange the workers."
Seeing that Su Wenyue had made up her mind, Su Hengyi asked someone to call the owner of the shop. Unexpectedly, the owner changed his mind at the last minute and was unwilling to sell the shop.
Su Hengyi's face looked a little bad. He had been active in the business world for so many years and had rarely met anyone who dared to go back on his word in front of him. Especially this time he was doing something for his sister. His face immediately looked a little ugly and he stared at the shop owner sharply. His meaning was very clear. If the shop owner didn't give him a satisfactory reason, he would never give up. With his influence in the business world, it was quite easy to deal with such a person.
The shop owner wiped the sweat from his forehead and explained under pressure: "Master Su, please forgive me. I didn't dare to play tricks on you. It's just that someone has already paid a deposit to buy this shop, and it was someone from the government. I have already explained that you liked this shop, but that person refused to give me face and forced me to sell it to him. If I didn't sell it, he would arrest my whole family. I am just an ordinary citizen and I can't afford to offend him."
The shop owner was also feeling bitter. He couldn't afford to offend ordinary people like him. He had let the rumor out for so long but no one bought the shop. He didn't know how the two families suddenly took a fancy to it. What else could he do except pay the compensation? !
Su Hengyi listened to the shop owner's explanation. Although it sounded understandable, his face was still not very good. He didn't know what was going on and why the government officials would interfere. He hoped it was just a coincidence and not intentional.
Su Wenyue didn't want things to be so coincidental, but since the shop had already been bought and the deposit had been paid, they could only blame themselves for coming at an unfortunate time and being a step late. There was no need to make things difficult for the shop owner. Nowadays, government officials have become more and more domineering due to lack of restraint, so it is normal for the shop owner to do this, and they don't have to buy this shop.
"Brother, since this shop has been sold, forget it. There is another one. I will buy that one. Although the place is a little small, it has a good location. I just thought that place was a little expensive before, but now it seems that I am more destined to buy that one."
Su Hengyi put away the complexity in his eyes and found it a little funny to hear Su Wenyue say this: "You said so about fate. Okay, in this case, let's go buy that place."
Su Hengyi said this, but there was actually some uncertainty in his tone. Some things were not something Su Hengyi thought too much about. His many years of business experience had cultivated a keen intuition in him, and he felt that there was something fishy going on this time.
Sure enough, when they arrived at the place and said they wanted to buy the shop, the owner of the shop gave the same reason as the previous owner, saying that he had been forced to sell the shop first by the government.
Now even Su Wenyue felt something was wrong. How could it be such a coincidence that she wanted to buy the shop, but it had already been bought by someone else, just a little faster than hers. It was as if the person was going against her.
Su Hengyi's face had turned completely black at this moment, and he stared at the shop owner viciously: "Who bought the shop? Tell me everything, or don't blame me for being rude. Although I can't arrest you like the government did, I will definitely make you and your family live a life more miserable than going to prison."
Su Hengyi's words were not just a threat. If the shop owner didn't know what was best for him, he would definitely do what he said.
After hearing the shop owner's description and adding information from various sources, the person behind this pointed to the Sun family. Su Wenyue was not surprised. The Sun family and her family were at odds. In the past, they did not dare to act rashly because of the Bei'an Marquis Mansion. Now that they have found a more powerful backer, it is normal for them to come to trouble her. However, their methods are really despicable. They only use such small tricks behind her back, which makes people look down on them.
"Brother, let's go back first. The Sun family has a grudge against me. They must have learned that I wanted to buy a shop and are deliberately going against me. Let's not bother with them." Su Wenyue knew that her brother didn't want her to suffer any grievances and would certainly not let it go. But now the Sun family has caught up with the powerful Prime Minister Wang, and it is obviously unwise to confront them at this time. It is better to avoid their edge for the time being and see how long the Sun family can last.
Su Hengyi is not a brainless person. He is very clear about the situation in the court. His sister can see it clearly, so he naturally understands the reason. Although he is resentful and looks down on the Sun family as a lackey, he does not act rashly. Even if he wants to teach the Sun family a lesson, he can only think of ways in secret and not in public, otherwise it will bring trouble to the Su family. Without this brains and forbearance, he is not worthy of being the future successor of the Su family.
It was just that Su Wenyue wanted to avoid, but someone wouldn't let her go. As soon as Su Wenyue left the shop, she was stopped by someone. It was none other than Madam Sun and her daughter. They were standing there with a smug and arrogant look on their faces, as ostentatious and proud as a peacock.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"Oh, this is Madam Han, right? Why, are you here to buy the shop? I'm so sorry that you came a little late. We just happened to buy this shop. It's really a good place. Even if you don't do business, it's good to buy it and keep it."
