Ling Jiyi was a little reluctant to leave his mother, but a good man has ambitions.
Now that his second brother has provided him with such favorable conditions, he would be doing himself a disservice if he doesn’t give it a try.
Holding back tears, she nodded to show that she understood.
He told the elders to take care of themselves and walked towards the door resolutely.
Huang Minbo, on the other hand, was the calmest one.
He had cried as early as when he said goodbye to County Magistrate Huang.
Now, seeing the Ling family’s reluctance to leave, although he felt the same way, he was able to stabilize his emotions.
The book boy has been following him since he was a child and is very sensitive to his emotional changes.
He thanked the old lady and the old man with great tact, then helped Huang Minbo into the carriage.
I was afraid that he would lose his composure in front of outsiders.
The car slowly drove away, and Shu Muyun wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief.
Although Chi Xingyue didn't cry, she felt empty inside.
Yes, we were separated for ten days.
She had never been separated from Ling Jiheng for so long.
But this is life, everyone has to work hard for their ideals.
She is no exception.
After resting in the house for two days, Yinbao went to find a pawnbroker.
Check out the store for her.
When Yinbao was in Jiangning Prefecture, he came into contact with Ling Jiheng's private property.
Buying a shop was a piece of cake for him.
Chi Xingyue was also happy to have some peace and quiet, so she let him run around for five or six days until he finally took over a shop with a small courtyard in the city center and a two-story building on the commercial street in the south of the city.
The total cost was more than seven thousand taels.
Chi Xingyue asked him, "There's no dispute behind these two shops, right?"
Speaking of this, Yinbao has something to say.
"If it weren't for the master's reminder, I might have really been caught."
Of course, this is an exaggeration. Yinbao is still very reliable.
"That broker really only introduces us to shops with problems. For example, the son owes debts and the father has already mortgaged them.
Some say that there are some very bad relatives in the family waiting to fight for the family property, and some say that there have been murder lawsuits.
There's another one that's said to have bad feng shui. If you open a shop there, you're either going to get burned or get flooded."
"And then?"
"I pretended to be very interested and went to find a dentist from another dental clinic.
In order to make a deal, the man sold out everything the other party had.
They gave me two addresses. I went there in person to take a look and asked nearby shops and residents. I only signed the deed after making sure there was no problem.
When I went to the government office to file the application, I also mentioned it to Brother Chang Wan.
He said that the two shops were fine, and the owner had received a message from his direct descendants and was going to settle in the capital.
I felt that these two shops were not worth much, so I asked the real estate agent to help me deal with them."
Chi Xingyue: "..."
I have a vague feeling that person is going to cry!
Okay, as long as it's okay.
He took out a dozen silver notes from the box and asked Yinbao to find someone to redecorate it.
The two-story building is used as a dessert shop, and that yard...
She wanted to ask Shu Muyun's opinion.
After Yinbao left, Chi Xingyue put away the two property deeds with her name on them.
He went to the small kitchen to make some double-skin milk and asked Baozhu to send one portion to the other rooms. He then took two bowls himself to honor his parents-in-law.
Shu Muyun didn't expect Chi Xingyue to recover so quickly. He took the snack from her hand with a smile and asked, "I've seen Yinbao coming in and out recently. What are you busy with?"
Chi Xingyue took the opportunity to sit next to her and said, "Mom, I asked Yinbao to help me buy two shops. One is privately owned and I plan to sell desserts there.
The other one is considered a public school, what do you think? "
Shu Muyun put down the spoon before even putting the double skin milk in his mouth.
"How can I let you pay for the shop? Your father and I are not broke!"
Chi Xingyue chuckled: "There are not many people in our family, so we won't fight over these things.
Besides, my name is on the property deeds. I can use the profits to subsidize the family."
Shu Muyun thought about it and didn't refuse.
But what kind of store should I open?
The cloth shops, wineries and grocery stores in this city are all quite large.
If you rashly touch other people's markets, you will inevitably be envied.
I hesitated for a moment.
He turned around and asked Chi Xingyue, "Xingyue, what kind of store do you think is suitable?"
Chi Xingyue laughed and started talking nonsense: "If it were up to me, I would open a vegetable and fruit store.
The wealthy families in the city have farms and do not need to do shopping every day.
But ordinary people only have so much space at home, not enough for growing crops, so they have to go out and buy them?
Although the vegetable and fruit store doesn’t make much money, it has a large customer flow.
People like to go shopping in pairs of three or five. When there are a lot of people, they can chat.
As we chat, we might uncover some gossip. I can collect it and tell my husband about it."
Shu Muyun understood immediately, and looked at Chi Xingyue with a burning gaze.
Even Ling Weicheng glanced at her in surprise.
“The most important thing is that we have a batch of rare seeds.
In a small place like Qingshan Village, it might not be that noticeable, but in the capital, where there are many wealthy families, once strawberries, watermelons, and tomatoes are released, they will definitely cause a sensation.”
Ling Weicheng couldn't sit still after hearing this: "Tomorrow I'll have the back garden dug up and plant those strawberries, watermelons, and tomatoes you mentioned."
There are still cherries, dragon fruits, and kiwis in Chi Xingyue's space, but it is not convenient to take them all out at once, for fear that someone will find out what they are.
She smiled and said, "My daughter-in-law has limited vision, so the suggestions she makes may not be appropriate. Would you like to ask the old man and the old lady?"
Shu Muyun made the decision: "No, let's just sell fruits and vegetables. Our family is well-off, so if we fail, we can just change careers."
Mainly because I don’t want to bother anymore.
If another richest man emerges, even if he has nine lives, it will not be enough for people to take advantage of him.
It's good to make a little money to support themselves. If they keep quiet and don't attract attention, they will be safer.
Ling Weicheng acted quickly. After saying a word to the old lady, he dug out the flowers and plants from several gardens in the mansion.
Although it is not a rare species, it would be a pity to throw it away.
Chi Xingyue had them delivered to her yard. She planted some in flower troughs and threw some into space. In short, no one was wasted.
Then, the seeds brought from Qingshan Village were sown.
For fear that it would not grow well, I diluted some spiritual spring water and sprinkled it on the plants.
Then he called several maids and servants over and asked them, "Who among you likes to cook?"
The servants looked at each other in bewilderment. Before they sold themselves, they had hardly ever been into the kitchen.
The maids did help cook a few meals for the family, but they were just makeshift meals. How could they serve them and pollute the master's eyes?
Seeing their hesitation, Chi Xingyue said straight to the point: "I bought you back, not just to stay in the mansion and serve people."
As soon as the words fell, someone began to tremble, fearing that he would hear some bad news.
Chi Xingyue continued: "I bought a shop on the street and will open it soon.
We need four cooks and six waiters. Are any of you interested?"
"Replying to the Second Young Master's wife, Chunzhi is willing to give it a try!"
"Chunfen is willing to learn how to make things."
"Second Young Master Madam, Li Zhi is willing to do odd jobs as a waiter."
"Second Young Master's wife..."
