Chapter 12 Preparing to Buy a House
After Mi Xia brought the children over, they saw the food on the table. The aroma went straight into their noses, and they felt even hungrier.
At the eldest brother's shout, the whole family started eating happily.
In the end, not even the soup was left, and Mi Qiu ate it with rice.
After dinner, Zhang Hongxia went to pack up the backpack that Mi Xia brought back. Mi Xia was afraid that Zhang Hongxia didn't know how to cook the fungus, so she followed her.
"Sister-in-law, black fungus must be dried before it can be eaten. If it is not dried, there are toxins in it and you may be poisoned if you eat it. You must dry it and soak it in water before you can eat it." Mi Xia reminded.
It took the aunt and sister-in-law a while to pack up, and then they went back to their rooms to rest.
The next day, "Sister-in-law, let's go to the county town."
Zhang Hongxia responded, and Mi Xia walked towards the village. Sitting in the ox cart, Mi Xia felt a lot more relaxed, otherwise, even if she rode a bicycle, the road would not be smooth.
After entering the space and disguising himself, he went straight to Zhang Xiaoyu. The younger brother who opened the door knew Mi Xia and opened the door directly to let Mi Xia in.
"Xiao Su is here, I've been waiting for you. The goods from last time are sold out, and many people come to ask if there are any more. You're so anxious that your mouth is foaming." Zhang Xiaoyu pointed at the corner of his mouth pitifully.
Mi Xia took a look and saw that there really was one. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Yes, I have everything you want. But this time I need your help."
"Tell me what you want. As long as I can do it, I will do it for you. If I can't do it, I will try my best to help you."
"Okay, then ask around for me to see if there are any jobs for sale, jobs for men, and also see if there are any suitable houses in the county town, preferably ones with a larger area."
Mi Xia looked at Zhang Xiaoyu and told him everything one by one.
"House, there's news here. Mr. Li's child is in Kyoto, and they want to take him over. They can't live in this house anymore, so they plan to sell it."
"It's a two-story house with its own door and yard. It costs 100 yuan for food, not to mention the money. How about I take you to have a look? I don't have any news about the job yet. I'll go and ask you tomorrow."
When Mi Xia heard this, she felt it was a bad coincidence and followed Zhang Xiaoyu to look at the house.
Zhang Xiaoyu took Mi Xia through many twists and turns, making Mi Xia dizzy, before they finally arrived at the gate of a Western-style house.
After knocking a few times, "Here it comes,"
As the voice came out, the door opened from the inside and a man in his fifties walked out. He looked very energetic, and his clothes were patched but clean.
"Uncle Li, you brought your sister to see the house. This is your cousin, please be honest."
"Okay, we've been neighbors for more than ten years, so I have to give you a little face," said Uncle Li generously.
Zhang Xiaoyu took Mi Xia to look around. The house was very clean, but some places still needed to be repaired.
There is a jujube tree in the yard, as well as some flowers, plants and vegetables. There is a swing under the jujube tree, and next to the swing are a table and four chairs.
The house is fully furnished, but a little old.
Mi Xia liked it as soon as she saw it, so she said, "Uncle Li wants this house, how much do you want to sell it for?"
"For the people you brought with you, Xiaoyu, then 1,500 plus 100 food, either rice or flour will do."
Mi Xia looked at Zhang Xiaoyu, and when he nodded slightly, she knew that the price was not expensive.
"Then Uncle Li, let's go and transfer the ownership now. After the transfer is completed, let your cousin give you the money and food. Do you think it's appropriate?" Mi Xia looked at Uncle Li and asked.
The little girl was straightforward, and he didn't hesitate either, nodding slightly to show his agreement.
Mi Xia suddenly remembered her fake name and didn't let Zhang Xiaoyu go with her.
The formalities were completed quickly. After Mi Xia got the key, she went to the small courtyard to find Zhang Xiaoyu.
"Everything is done. Go prepare the supplies. You can come back in half an hour."
"Okay, I got it." Zhang Xiaoyu replied while nodding.
Mi Xia turned around and walked out of the yard, heading straight for the grove where they had made the previous transaction. She entered the space to pack up the things she was going to take before putting them outside.
One thousand pounds of rice, one thousand pounds of flour, all the pheasants and hares, roe deer, fawns, wild goats, mushrooms and the wild boars left over from yesterday in the space were taken out, five hundred pounds of noodles, and 200 bags of milk powder.
After checking, Zhang Xiaoyu put the ginseng in the backpack and brought his people over.
Zhang Xiaoyu was shocked to see so many things, and his eyes were instantly filled with stars. Then he quickly told a younger brother to go back and get some money, and then he took people to check the supplies.
The more I check, the happier I am. These things are all necessities. I can get a lot of bonuses this time, after all, it's such a big order.
After checking with Mi Xia, Zhang Xiaoyu deducted 1,500 yuan for buying the house and 100 grains, and handed the remaining money to Mi Xia.
Mi Xia took the money and tickets and put them into the space. She believed that Zhang Xiaoyu would not be so stupid as to spend less money. After all, he could make more money through Mi Xia.
Zhang Xiaoyu's boss had thought about where a woman like Mi Xia got so many supplies, and he also thought about looking for Mi Xia's supplier directly, but he was afraid that he would not be able to find it and anger Mi Xia, so he never investigated.
Fortunately, he did not investigate, otherwise if Mi Xia found out, she would definitely stop supplying goods.
She took out the ginseng from the basket and said, "Look how much this can be sold for."
"Is this hundred-year-old ginseng?" Zhang Xiaoyu had some vision in this, so he knew it at a glance.
Seeing Mi Xia nod, he confirmed that he was not mistaken. There were really too few hundred-year-old ginsengs. He had only seen it twice, so he knew it.
"This one is 1,000 yuan, do you think it's suitable?" Zhang Xiaoyu looked at Mi Xia eagerly, fearing that Mi Xia would not sell it to him.
Mi Xia's psychological price was only 900 yuan, so Yu agreed and said, "Okay."
Zhang Xiaoyu then breathed a sigh of relief, carefully took the ginseng, took money from his pocket and gave it to Mi Xia, then told his younger brother to find a piece of cloth to wrap it up.
"I have something else to trouble you with. Can you find someone to help you fix up the house and clean it up?"
"This is not a small matter. I'll ask a few people to take care of it for you tomorrow." Zhang Xiaoyu said with a big heart.
Mi Xia still trusted Zhang Xiaoyu very much. After all, they had dealt with each other several times. She handed the key to Zhang Xiaoyu, thanked him and then walked out.
He found a deserted place and entered the space, took 20 grams of rice, 20 grams of noodles, five grams of noodles, and 30 eggs, and then walked towards Song Binbin's house.
Before I reached the door, I met Song Binbin walking out of the house.
"Binbin, where are you going?" Mi Xia asked.
"Wow, sister, why did you come just now? Grandma is sick and can't eat now."
"Take 놖 to see it quickly." Mi Xia said to Song Binbin anxiously.
As soon as I entered the room, I heard Old Lady Song coughing. The coughing became more and more severe, like she was coughing like a bellows.
"What disease does your grandma have? Why is it so serious?" Mi Xia asked Song Binbin.
"Grandma suddenly had a fever yesterday, and I couldn't buy medicine, so her illness got worse. She has been coughing all the time. I can't live without Grandma. Please save her."
"Binbin, grandma may not be able to survive. You have to take good care of yourself in the future. Xiaoxia, I have a request. Please take care of Binbin after I am gone. He is very pitiful. His mother died before he could survive the movement, and his father is still on a farm in the northwest."
"Grandma Song, don't talk nonsense. Wait a moment and I'll go get you some medicine." Mi Xia said and ran out.
She found an empty alley, looked around to see if there was anyone, and then slipped into the space. She didn't dare to take risks in the room just now, as people's minds were unpredictable, so it was better to be safe.
I took the cold and fever-reducing medicine, wrapped them in a piece of paper, and hurried back.
He went into the room and asked Song Binbin to pour some water. He gave Grandma Song some medicine and then let her lie down and rest.
After calling Song Binbin to the outer room, he took out the things in the backpack one by one and handed him the medicine that had just been packed in the space. The medicine was enough for three days.
