"You are so rude."
Li Xi glanced at him and said, "What's so polite about this."
I feel sorry for a man, and he will be unlucky for the rest of his life.
While talking, they arrived at Yong'an Hall.
The Yong'an Hall is still the same as that day. There is only Ah Wei behind the counter, and Doctor Wu should be behind.
"A Wei." Li Xi called him.
Awei raised his head when he heard the voice and recognized Li Xi, "It's you."
He glanced at the man beside Li Xi and behind him, and shouted to the back room, "Master, that girl is here again!"
Li Xi:......
Well, the word "you" is very spiritual.
When Gu Jingzhi heard this, he also raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Xi. It seemed that she had quite a "reputation" here.
Li Xi pretended not to notice Gu Jingzhi's scrutiny, coughed slightly and stepped forward, "We haven't seen you for many days, and Awei is still so frizzy. It's not easy for Doctor Wu."
Ah Wei was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing. He snorted at Li Xi and turned his head.
Doctor Wu walked out of the room and was stunned for a moment when he saw the man next to Li Xi. Then he greeted Li Xi with a smile, "It's you, little girl. What good things did you bring this time?"
Gu Jingzhi's eyes flashed when he looked at Doctor Wu, and then he stood honestly behind Li Xi.
Li Xi asked Gu Jingzhi to take off the backpack, "There is no ginseng this time, they are all different medicinal materials."
She is not God's biological daughter, how can she have such good luck every time.
Doctor Wu was a little disappointed when he heard what she said. The krait she brought last time was quite good, and he thought she would have some treasures just now.
What Li Xi brought this time was just as she said, all ordinary medicinal materials, and she only bought twenty coins in total.
But Li Xi didn't care. She was not short of money now. The reason why she asked Gu Jingzhi to carry the medicinal materials was because he would need to use a backpack to buy things later. It would be a waste to bring them empty. She might as well pack some medicinal materials and sell them. No matter how small the mosquitoes are, they are still meat. no.
After the transaction was completed, Li Xi asked, "Doctor Wu, I want to rent a house in the city. Do you know a reliable dentist?"
Doctor Wu casually glanced at Gu Jingzhi behind Li Xi, "Are you going to move to the city?"
Li Xi doesn't look like a rich person from the way she is dressed, but she has more than thirty taels she got here last time, which is enough to rent a house in the city.
"Yes, my little brother has reached the age where he should study. I heard someone said that the private school in Jiangning City is good.
So it's more convenient to move to the city, isn't it? "You can also stay away from weirdos like Mrs. Li.
Mrs. Liu remarried, and with the two murders she committed, the people in the village looked at them strangely now.
She didn't have to care, but she didn't want Huzi to grow up in that kind of environment. The gossip around her would affect the healthy growth of children too much.
"What kind of one do you want to rent?" Doctor Wu asked.
"What? Doctor Wu has it on hand?" Li Xi looked at Doctor Wu in surprise.
"Master!" Ah Wei stared at Doctor Wu, "This Yong'an Hall is already crowded enough."
The front of Yong'an Hall is used to sell medicine, and the backyard is used to store medicinal materials and food and accommodation. There are only three houses in the backyard. He and his master have one room each, and another room to store medicinal materials. Where else can there be any room to rent out.
Doctor Wu angrily slapped Awei in the head and said with a look of disgust, "I didn't mention renting out Yong'antang."
"I have a three-room courtyard in my hand. You can go and have a look." Doctor Wu took back his hand and said.
Awei covered his forehead and pouted, "Master, why didn't I know you still have a house in Jiangning City?"
Li Xi's eyes lit up, "Okay, let's go and have a look."
"Asafoetida, you stay and look at the store. I'll take them to have a look."
Awei nodded reluctantly and watched them leave with a pout.
Doctor Wu's house is not far from Yong'an Hall, only about 500 meters away. When he opens the door, he is facing three main rooms with blue bricks and large tiles, two side rooms next to them, and the yard is also small. It is relatively small, and there is a persimmon tree planted in the courtyard. The persimmon tree without leaves looks somewhat beautiful.
The yard was also very clean. Li Xi took a liking to this house at a glance, "Doctor Wu, how much is the rent for this house?"
"Ten taels of silver a year."
The price Dr. Wu said is actually very fair. If it weren't for the man's face, he wouldn't rent it out for twenty taels. After all, he was not short of money, otherwise the house would have been rented out long ago if it was empty. .
Li Xi didn't know the prices here. Is ten taels of silver a year considered expensive? But this was just asking for high prices and then just bargaining.
"It's too expensive, five taels."
The first way to bargain: half split!
"What! Five taels!" Doctor Wu's eyes widened in disbelief. This was the first time in his life that he had seen such a counter-offer.
Cut it in half as soon as it comes up.
Li Xi had a serious look on his face: "Ahem, Doctor Wu, I'm not telling you that this house is just sitting here. You won't make a penny. If you rent it to me, the money you get is like picking it up for free."
Do the math, is this true? '
"What's the matter? If you don't bargain like this, someone else will rent if you don't rent. Besides, even if you pick it up for free, I still know the difference between picking up five taels for free and picking up ten taels for free."
Naughty little girl!
Gu Jingzhi stood aside with Hu Zi in his arms and watched the excitement.
"Okay," Li Xi looked reluctant, "Let's each take a step back, six liang."
Doctor Wu: ...
Why didn't he see any sincerity in this step back?
"Twelve taels."
"Six two five."
"Twelve taels."
"Seven taels."
"Twelve taels."
…
No matter how Li Xi counter-offered, Doctor Wu would not let go until he died, so Li Xi had no choice but to admit it in the end.
Doctor Wu: ...Nonsense, he lost ten taels of silver, and the little girl got an advantage and behaved well.
If there was no counteroffer, it would be a loss. Li Xi felt that he had suffered a loss, so he signed the lease. Li Xi paid half a year's rent in exchange for a key.
Looking at the key in his hand, Li Xi breathed a sigh of relief. Forget it, no matter what, the house is rented and the move is done.
Li Xi originally planned to look at a few more houses today and then choose the best ones. She didn't expect that the house matter would be resolved so quickly, so she planned to take Huzi to the private school to have a look today.
Li Xi inquired all the way to the private school. The location of the private school was not too far from the house they rented. That house was considered a room in the school district.
This made Li Xi, who was already satisfied with the house, even more satisfied, and the depression in his heart about not paying back the price also dissipated.
The private school is on holiday, and there are no students in it now. However, this private school was opened by Master Jiang and a few friends. It is not small in scale and is well-known in several border towns. It is located near Master Jiang’s home. .
This was all what Li Xi asked from passers-by when he was asking for directions to the private school.
Seeing that the gate of the private school was closed, Li Xi asked Gu Jingzhi to take the gifts she bought and visit Mrs. Jiang at her home.
Gu Jingzhi:......
