Chapter 918 An unusual place
Seeing the displeasure in his tone, the shopkeeper hurriedly came to him and explained,
"This guest, it's not that I don't appreciate your kindness, but I really don't dare to accept it. To tell you the truth, today is the last day that my small shop is open. Although this restaurant is closed, I still have to When you live in Yilan County, you don’t dare to offend these officials.”
"You're doing a good job in this restaurant, why don't you stop?"
The shopkeeper sighed heavily,
"To tell you the truth, situations like the one just now happen almost every month. You said that my small shop can only earn more than ten taels of silver a month. If I spend ten taels of silver to honor these officials, then It’s all in vain, instead of working here and not making any money, it’s better to go home and find something else to make a living.”
Hearing this, Leng Yu asked angrily,
Will they come every month? "
"Yes, they don't just come to our restaurant, they also go to other places. The ones in the big restaurants are 10 taels and 20 taels, and the small ones are 3 taels and 5 taels. No one can escape anyway. This is a rule that has been formed here for many years."
"This is really unreasonable."
Leng Yu clenched his fists with a livid face.
"Then the magistrate doesn't care?"
The shopkeeper looked around and saw no one was around, then he said cautiously:
"This is all ordered by the county magistrate, otherwise these officials would not dare!"
Upon hearing this, Leng Yu became even more angry.
He slapped the table and said angrily:
"In broad daylight, they dared to do such an unscrupulous thing. It's really... really audacious."
Seeing that Leng Yu was a little angry, the shopkeeper hurriedly waved his hand to explain,
"You are probably a guest passing by here. Look at my mouth, and I don't have a door lock. You guys, please use it slowly."
Just as he was about to leave, Luo Lan stopped him directly.
"Shopkeeper, wait."
The shopkeeper stood still nervously, turned around and looked at her carefully,
"What other orders do you have?"
Luo Lan pursed her lips and smiled softly,
"You just said that you don't want to run the restaurant anymore. How about renting this house out?"
Hearing this, the shopkeeper nodded hurriedly,
"Of course we have to rent it out, but now Yilan County is in a recession, business is not good, and people from the county government are always making trouble, so no one dares to rent it out!"
"How about renting it to us?"
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then looked at Luo Lan in surprise.
"Do you want to buy this shop?"
Luo Lan nodded solemnly,
"Yes, we are from out of town and want to start a small business, but we are worried about not finding a suitable shop."
The shopkeeper suddenly shook his head and sighed,
"Logically speaking, I should be happy that you want to take over my business, but I can't cheat you just because you are from outside. If you want to do business, go to another place, not Yilan County, otherwise it will be easy to lose everything." .”
Seeing the shopkeeper's kind reminder, Luo Lan narrowed his eyes and glanced at Leng Yu.
Leng Yu looked at the shopkeeper,
"Since my wife has taken a fancy to your shop, let's sell it to us. But thank you to the shopkeeper for reminding us that in this business, if there is a loss, there is a profit. We will be mentally prepared."
Hearing this, the shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then nodded as if he couldn't bear it.
"Okay, I'll pack my things now..."
"Don't be too busy cleaning up. We are new here and don't know much about this place. Can the shopkeeper tell us something about Yilan County?"
Seeing this, Ah Hou quickly gave up his seat and asked the shopkeeper to sit down.
The shopkeeper sat down unceremoniously, hesitated for a moment, and said:
"I wouldn't dare say anything without seeing you face to face today. Since you want to do business here, I will simply tell you some precautions to save you from suffering."
Leng Yu stretched out his hand to signal,
"Wish to hear its good fortune."
The shopkeeper then slowly spoke,
"The magistrate of Yilan County is named Hu Mingtian, but even though he is the magistrate, he must listen to his master, Boss Wang, in everything, because there is a master behind Boss Wang."
When he mentioned the word "master", he lowered his voice mysteriously,
"This tall man is not ordinary tall, he is bigger than you can imagine."
Luo Lan took a breath of cold air and couldn't help but ridiculed:
"How big can it be? The biggest people in Daning Kingdom are the emperor and the queen..."
The shopkeeper suddenly slapped his thigh in surprise,
"Girl, you are right. The master behind Boss Wang is really related to the current Queen..."
"Uh-huh……"
At this point, the waiter coughed several times behind him, trying to signal him not to say anything more.
He realized again that he was talking too fast, and he waved his hand in embarrassment.
"Guests, just think what I just said is nonsense. You eat slowly while I go pack my things."
After leaving these words, the shopkeeper ran away in despair.
Leng Yu's face was once again covered with a black line.
He looked back at Luo Lan, lowered his voice, and said cautiously:
"Who are these people? They dare to use your identity to do evil things. If they don't have some basis, they wouldn't dare to be so unscrupulous."
Luo Lan frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head.
"I don't understand what's going on, but as you said, it's impossible for these people to do these evil things in my name for no reason. I'm more eager to know what's going on than you are now. "
At this time, the storekeeper packed up his things and walked out of the back room with the waiter and the chef. He took out a piece of straw paper and spread it on the table.
"Girl, you just said that you want to buy this shop. I'll give you a cheaper price, fifty taels of silver a year. If you agree, let's sign the agreement now. Anyway, you are coming from other places and you have to find a place to stay tonight. , when I think about it, I don’t plan to open this store again. If you don’t have any objections, let’s sign the agreement now, and then we take the money and leave, and you can live in it after tidying up the backyard, is that okay?”
Luo Lan glanced at Leng Yu, then nodded and ordered Ah Hong:
"Go and sign the agreement with the shopkeeper and pay the rent."
After receiving the order, Ah Hong took out a few ingots of silver from the bag and put them on the table. After signing the agreement with the shopkeeper, he put the agreement away.
The shopkeeper put the money into his arms, clasped his fists at Leng Yu and others and said
"Guys, please take care of yourself. Before I leave, I have to remind you a few words. Once the business is not easy to do, you must not force yourself with the people from the county government. You can go to me. My family is included in the agreement. Address, I can return some of the rent so that you lose less. By the way, you must not believe the people who come here to recruit workers at high prices. You can earn that money but you will never spend it. "
Seeing that he was not finished talking, the waiter in the shop hurriedly pulled him and he hurriedly walked away and said:
"You must remember that if you have something to do, you don't have to report it to the official. Go directly to Boss Wang. As long as the money is in place, he can do anything."
After leaving these words, he was forcefully dragged away by the waiter in the store.
Here, it was very busy just now, but now only a few of them are left.
Leng Yu stood up, walked around for a few steps with his hands behind his back, and then ordered A Yu:
"You and Ah Hong stay and go to the backyard to clean up. Let's go out to buy some daily necessities now."
Ayu and Ahong nodded in agreement, Leng Yu looked at Luo Lan,
"Lan'er, let's go to the street to buy some new bedding and daily necessities. By the way, we can see how this Yilan County is different from other places."
After Luo Lan nodded, he took A Cai and A Hou and followed him to the street.
The streets in Yilan County are very quiet, with not many people coming and going. A few vendors setting up stalls can occasionally be seen on the streets, but there are no customers.
"Help, help!"
Leng Yu and others who were wandering on the street looked up and saw a woman running towards them and ran directly into Leng Yu's arms...
