Lin Ke'er sighed, not to mention ancient times, even modern times have a lot of troubles with this kind of scumbag. It seems that she has to put in a lot of effort to get this restaurant to open smoothly. If she doesn't solve the problem, sooner or later she will be in trouble. The soup will also go bad.
The government office was not far from the shop. Soon the steward took Lin Keer into the restaurant from the backyard. Lin Keer walked around and was very satisfied with the layout of the restaurant. The restaurant has three floors in total, and there are three courtyards in the backyard. In total, There are thirty rooms, and the backyard should have been used as an inn.
Liu Keer nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Guanshi Wei, this restaurant is not cheap, right?"
"Indeed, the young master has also seen that the restaurant in the front yard has three floors, and the back yard is also a three-entry courtyard, which can be used as an inn for businessmen to stay. This shop and the back yard are for sale together, and the owner wants 4,000 taels of silver. This When the business of our restaurant is good, our daily income is more than three hundred taels."
Lin Ke'er nodded. Three hundred taels was really a lot, but for such a big restaurant, it was only three hundred taels. If the shop floor was 4,000 taels, she would have to renovate it. The labor and material costs would be more than a thousand taels, she estimated. Lin Keer was confused for a moment.
Then he returned to his normal smile and said, "Manager Wei, can I meet that girl and talk face to face?"
Manager Wei hesitated for a moment: "Sir, please wait a moment."
Lin Ke'er nodded, and after Manager Wei left, she took another look at the shop. The shop was 80% new, and it was estimated that it only took about three years to build. 4,000 taels is not expensive at all. If it was located in Zhengdong City, it would cost 7,000 to 8,000 taels. To win.
Lin Ke'er turned around and saw a thin beauty with a sallow complexion and a haggard face. She was walking towards her with Manager Wei. When the woman got closer, Lin Ke'er saw clearly the woman's imagination. Lin Ke'er fell into memories.
This woman's name was changed to Cuizhu because her mother was killed by an adulterer, her father died of illness, her tribe persecuted her, and a rich man was eyeing her. She sold her property and went to Kyoto to seek shelter from her grandfather's family. Unexpectedly, she fell out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's den. She was designed by her aunt to replace her cousin and become a maid in the palace. Because of her low status, she was bullied everywhere in the palace, until she was saved by an accident, and she became one of the four maids around her.
The old emperor died suddenly at his birthday party. She was designed to have an affair with the Tatar prince. All the palace servants around her were executed. From then on, she, Lin Ke'er, was responsible for thirty-six lives, including Li Cuizhu, the smart and steady one. , and the clever silly girl, Lin Keer thought of the familiar faces and loyal servants, her eyes were a little red, and her tears stubbornly refused to fall. This scene was very unexpected in the eyes of Manager Wei and Cuizhu.
"Master?" Manager Wei called Lin Ke'er tentatively. Lin Ke'er came back to her senses and looked at Li Cuizhu. He noticed the difference in Li Cuizhu's eyes. He seemed to notice that she was disguised as a man, but he did not reveal it. she.
Lin Ke'er smiled. This girl was still so smart and calm. Lin Ke'er looked at Manager Wei and asked, "Is this girl the boss's girl?"
"I am, Li Cuizhu, the girl who owns this shop. I heard that my aunt, um, the young master wants to buy this shop. I wonder if the young master has any idea about the price?"
Lin Keer shook his head: "It's meaningless, but there are some things you want to ask the girl alone?"
Manager Wei coughed twice and said, "I'm going out to get some fresh air. It's been extremely hot these past two days."
Lin Ke'er nodded and thanked Manager Wei, motioned for Li Cuizhu to sit down, and then said: "Thank you, miss. I dress up like this for convenience when I go out. My surname is Lin and my first name is Ke'er. When no one is around, Miss Li can call me Miss Lin." Or Ke'er, I'm very satisfied with this shop, and the price is meaningless, but I want to know who your family's enemy is? Miss Li, don't get me wrong, I bought the shop to open a restaurant, and I mainly want to know who this person is. Is it aimed at your home or the restaurant?"
Li Cuizhu stood up in shock at first, then sat down with understanding at the end: "Don't worry, Miss Lin, that man is not targeting the restaurant, he is just coveting my mother's beauty. That man is the eldest young master of the Liu Mansion in the west of the city. He killed My parents still want to take me as their concubine, but fortunately I know a little bit about medicine, so I gave myself some poison and escaped the disaster, but I also want to leave Fairy City as soon as possible and go to Kyoto to find my relatives."
Lin Ke'er nodded: "Then let's ask Manager Wei to handle the transfer deed for us. If the girl can trust me, she can stay with me and be a steward. She doesn't have to go to Kyoto to find her relatives. Far away, your home is not safe as a girl, and if you stay here, you may have a chance to take revenge one day."
Li Cuizhu was a little different at first, but when she heard about revenge, she felt a little excited and looked forward to it. She asked uncertainly: "You want me to sell myself to you?"
"It's not a sale, it's just a hire. If one day Miss Li doesn't want to be by my side, she can leave at any time. But you can't betray or reveal anything about me, including anything you have done for me.
This is one of them. As a woman, I know how difficult it is for Miss Li. If Miss Li doesn’t want to be by my side, I can also arrange a place for Miss Li to go. You can open a female account with the money from selling the shop. , or get married and live a peaceful life without having to travel thousands of miles to escape. Not all of the girl's relatives in Kyoto may be able to accept the girl. Rather than asking for help from others, it is better to ask for yourself. "
Li Cuizhu did not agree immediately, but began to consider it carefully. Lin Keer did not disturb her, went out and asked Manager Wei to draw up a deed, and both parties took their fingerprints. Seeing that Li Cuizhu was about to speak but hesitated, Lin Keer rushed to Manager Wei and said, "Manager Wei, could you please wait outside the door for a moment."
Seeing Manager Wei leave, Li Cuizhu finally made up her mind: "Lin, Miss Lin, I am willing to follow you, can you let me follow you soon?"
Lin Ke'er thought for a while and thought: "The shop has been sold, and the news should have been received over there. You are not safe here. I will buy a yard later, and you will move there later. Don't worry, I will live there later." I will give you a disguise so that no one can recognize you, and I will find someone to apply for a new copy of your household registration for you."
Li Cuizhu nodded and said, "Thank you, Miss Lin."
Lin Keer smiled, turned around and left the shop. I looked around the Li family's yard with General Wei, and finally bought a yard with three entrances for 1,700 taels. They went to the government office together to exchange for the red deed.
When it was over, Manager Wei suddenly arrived: "Young Master must be a local. The water in this fairy city is very deep. If you want to do business in the fairy city, it is best to have the government as a backing, for example, give 10% of the dividend to the government."
Hearing this, Lin Ke'er felt grateful: "Thank you, Manager Wei, for the tip."
"Easy to say, easy to say. Don't forget to buy me a couple of drinks when we open."
"sure."
Lin Ke'er left the Yamen with her front foot, and Lin Shutao entered the Yamen with his back foot. Lin Ke'er didn't know that she almost lost her vest again.
