Chapter 370 Viewing a House

On the second day, Song Ying and the other two asked for leave from Doctor Ma and went to find Fangya, intending to take a look and understand the current housing prices.

Although this Fang Ya was also an official, he was not as arrogant as other yamen runners. He greeted the three people with a smile: "What kind of house do you want to see? Do you want to buy or rent it?"

"We're looking for a shop." Song Ying answered simply, without revealing whether he wanted to rent or buy it.

"Shop?" Fang Ya was stunned and looked at the three people. "You are so young, how can you run a business?"

"Yes, we sell pancreas." Hearing this, Luo Yanxing couldn't hold it back and her eyebrows raised. Whenever she heard people asking in surprise like this, she felt that she was very capable, only slightly worse than Song Ying in prescribing acupuncture for people.

Fang Ya suddenly realized, "So it's you who are selling pancreas!"

"Have you heard of us?"

Fang Ya smiled, "Now I'm afraid everyone in Qingshui County knows that a while ago a little girl had a fight with Shopkeeper Qi. Not only was she not injured, but she also beat Shopkeeper Qi black and blue."

As he spoke, his eyes moved between Song Ying and Luo Yanxing, as if he was looking at which of them was more likely to be able to fight against an adult man.

Song Ying was speechless. This rumor was too outrageous. At that time, Manager Qi was just hit by a few carrying poles. How could his face be bruised?

She stopped Luo Yanxing who was about to speak and said slowly, "These are all rumors. That shopkeeper Qi is so unreasonable that he blocked my sister at the street corner, threatened her not to sell pancreas, and threatened to teach her a lesson.

After all, my sister is just a child, how could she be his opponent? She had no choice but to borrow a carrying pole from someone to defend herself. She was forced to do so. Shopkeeper Qi just failed to dodge a few times and was hit by the carrying pole a few times. "

After all, Fang Ya is a government official, and he might be very familiar with the clerks in the yamen. Although Manager Qi did not report it to the authorities, some mistakes still need to be covered up.

Fang Ya's mouth twitched when he heard this. Since he couldn't dodge in time, it showed how fast the carrying pole was swung. Could he call it a rub if he got hit in this situation?

After a brief explanation, Song Ying immediately brought the topic back to the shops, "What shops are there now? Can you tell us more about them?"

Fang Ya also felt that his business was more important, so he took out a simple map of the county and a notebook for recording, and said, "Since you are opening a shop to do business, the location must be your first choice. There is a suitable one in the east of the city.

This shop is located on the busiest East Street, with many people coming and going. People from the Xu, Liu, and Shen mansions would pass by here when they went out to do business. I heard that your pancreas is mainly sold to the servants of each mansion, so this location is perfect. In addition to this mansion, the mansions of other powerful and wealthy families are also close to here.

You can rest assured about the shop decoration. This is the Chen family's property. When it was built, all aspects were made of high-quality materials. If you want to do business with ladies in the future, the decoration is not bad either. It is completely feasible!"

When Song Ying heard that it was the Chen family's, his interest in this shop was greatly reduced. Then he heard Fang Ya say, "The other shop in the east of the city is also owned by the Chen family. The decoration is similar to the previous one, but the location is not as good as the previous one."

"What about the north of the city?" Song Ying asked, meaning naturally that he was not considering the two in the east of the city.

Fang Ya felt quite regretful, as his Fang Ya fee was a commission based on the transaction price.

He suppressed his regret and continued with a smile, "The north of the city is also very good. Since the construction of Jiahu Academy, the north of the city has changed day by day and has become more and more noble. Many bookstores and ink shops are moving there. There are still many shops to choose from now. After a while, the good shops will be picked up.

There are several suitable houses in Yunshuifang, Renhe Street, Binhu Street, and Wencheng Lane. Yunshuifang and Binhu Street are located by the lake, with pleasant scenery. The houses in Renhe Street and Wencheng Lane are relatively large, and many of them have three or two courtyards behind the shops. It is very convenient to open a shop and live in the back. "

When they heard about the yard, Song Ying and Luo Yanxing immediately became interested. After looking at each other, they asked Fang Ya to explain in detail.

There are many scholars in the north of the city, and they are very particular. Many scholars who come from wealthy families even use soap to wash their clothes, which naturally consumes clothes much faster than just washing their hands and faces.

Fang Yazi saw that they were excited, so he smiled and said, "Why don't I take you there and let you see it for yourself? No matter how much I describe it, it won't be as good as you seeing it for yourself."

Song Ying glanced at Luo Yanxing and Lin Wenxuan, and seeing that they were both interested, he said, "Thank you very much. We are a small business, and we don't have much money. Forget the big houses with two or three entrances. Let's just take a look at the small house with one entrance."

After a pause, he emphasized again, "We are not well-off, so we can only buy it at a lower price. Otherwise, we can only consider renting it."

Fang Yazi smiled when he heard this, and walked out while saying, "There is a shop in Yunshuifang that is just right for you. The location is also good, facing Mingjia Lake. Across the lake is Jiahu Academy, which is shaded by trees and quiet. In summer, there are still many students studying by the lake. Who knows, some of them may get tired of studying and come into the shop to buy a piece of pancreas."

Song Ying naturally did not believe a word of what was said later. Mingjia Lake is extremely vast. The name Yunshuifang came from the fact that when looking across the lake from Jiahu Academy, one can see water and clouds connected and the lake and sky are one color. Which student would be so idle as to cross most of Mingjia Lake to study in Yunshuifang?

Furthermore, it is very reasonable to drink tea, eat a meal, or even eat a piece of cake when you are tired of studying. Why would you buy a piece of soap when you are tired of studying?

These words are obviously the rhetoric used by Fang Yazi to sell the house. I don't know how many times they have been exaggerated. Just listen to them.

"The most important thing is that the owner of that shop is charging 5 taels less than other shops around here."

"Five taels missing?" Song Ying stopped and frowned. "It's the same house, why is the owner missing five taels?"

Luo Yanxing also looked at Fang Yazi with caution. After doing business for a while, she knew very well how shrewd these businessmen were. It was impossible for them to give up so much for no reason. Could it be that there was some trouble with the house?

"It's not a big deal, we can talk while we walk." Fang Yazi said sincerely.

Seeing this, Song Ying and the other two continued to move forward. No matter what, they went to see the house first. Then they heard the landlord say, "The owner bought the shop to sell rice, but there is an apricot tree at the entrance of the shop, which blocks most of the entrance. Many passers-by did not notice that there was a rice shop, so the business was not very good.

The landlord gritted his teeth and opened another rice shop in the south of the city, and this shop was closed. "
