Yan Xia felt better now.

No wonder the shopkeeper's opening is one hundred and fifty taels of silver.

This is equivalent to buying a shop and giving it a small yard to live in.

And she likes the persimmon tree in the yard very much.

By October, there will probably be some persimmons to eat. Judging from the variety of the tree, they should be soft persimmons. If you can’t finish eating them, you can use them to dry them and make them into persimmon cakes. In the winter, you can stay at home with a pot of hot tea and a piece of persimmon cake. , it’s simply not too fun.

However, this was just love. What made Yan Xia really decide to buy this shop was when she saw the stove built under the shed.

This is no ordinary stove.

Kind of like an oven.

It's just a little more crude, built of bricks.

Logically speaking, it's just for cooking. Why would you build such a complicated stove? This shop doesn't sell food.

"Shopkeeper, this stove?"

Yan Xia asked in confusion.

"Do you think this stove is a bit strange? In fact, I bought this shop from others for 150 taels two years ago. Originally, he sold scones and some cakes that needed to be baked, but since the opposite That pastry shop opened, but the previous owner completely lost business. When I bought it, the stove was still in the open air, and you couldn't cook even if it rained. No, I spent some money to build this shed."

"Look, you won't get wet in windy or rainy weather, and you can not only bake pancakes, but also cook and boil water. It's the best of both worlds. However, I don't recommend that you start a pastry business, madam. Since you can see the difference in this stove, it means You are also a knowledgeable person, and it is impossible for you to have business with the shop opposite."

The shopkeeper was honest and explained clearly the ins and outs to Yan Xia, and also warned Yan Xia not to get involved in the pastry business.

"Can the price be cheaper?"

For this yard, 150 taels is really not expensive, but Yan Xia is used to being stingy.

If you want to pay back the price, even if it's a few taels cheaper, that's fine.

"Oh, madam, I really can't bargain. Not only have I not made any money in the past two years, I have also paid more than ten taels to build this shed and repair the yard. As you can see, not only is the furniture here very new, , even the old man on the roof can guarantee you that there will be no rain within five years. So, if you want it sincerely, I will leave everything in the shop to you. After this, I finally discovered it, I ! You can’t do business at all, just enjoy the blessing of your son from now on.”

"Okay, I'll take it, but since you've left everything for me, don't take away the small items like the abacus. Leave them all to me."

After all, these all cost money to buy.

Without a counteroffer, Yan Xia would of course have to save some money. She didn't have much money.

"Okay, okay, I'll leave it all to you. I'm really scared of you, but you have to let me take away the bedding."

"Haha, take it away, why do I need your quilt?"

Yan Xia was a little embarrassed, even though she was picking.

It’s not like you want everything.

Eventually she bought the shop.

After both parties signed the documents, they went to the government to register.

From then on, this small shop belonged to her.

And Shi Xiaohe, who had been standing next to her mother-in-law, was confused the whole time.

She didn't expect that her mother-in-law spent so much money to get her married to Jin Fu, and she still had 150 taels to buy a shop.

Oh my god.

"Mom, how much money did you get for that grizzly bear you sold? I heard from the villagers that bear paws are valuable and can be sold for dozens of taels each. Is that true?" Shi Xiaohe asked gossiping.

"I sold two hundred taels, but I didn't tell Jin Fu or the others, nor did these children ask. Mom originally wanted to use the money to buy land, but the family can't farm that much land. It's better to buy a shop. Let's do it. Some food business, what do you think?"

"I listen to mom, but mom~ you don't have to farm the land yourself when you buy it. You can rent the land to the villagers for farming like the landlord in the next village."

The daughter-in-law's words opened the door to a new world for Yan Xia.

Yes, why is she so stupid?

If you leave a good landlord alone, how can you buy a shop?

Damn it, can you please evict this shop?

Yan Xia felt as if her brain had been left in modern times since time travel.

"Uh hehe, it's okay. There is a lot of money in the world. Let's make more money later."

I don't know whether these words comforted Shi Xiaohe or herself.

"Mom, have you thought about what food to sell? This shop is so small. We can only put one table in it. How many tables can we sell in a day?"

Shi Xiaohe thought Yan Xia was selling stir-fried vegetables.

After all, my mother’s cooking is so delicious.

"Selling pastries."

Yan Xia replied to her.

"What? Pastries? Didn't the shopkeeper just say not to sell pastries? Besides, the shop selling pastries opposite my mother's shop does very good business on weekdays. I've bought them before, they're cheap and delicious."

Yan Xia didn't take the shopkeeper's words seriously, after all, the pastries here were just the same.

At most, the quality of the materials used determines the price.

For example, the Yishangpin pastry shop she gave to Sister Zhao is already the most expensive pastry shop in these counties, especially the treasure in the shop.

Osmanthus cake!

Compared to other brands that taste dry and sweet.

Yi Shangpin's sweet-scented osmanthus cake is soft, waxy and sweet, exuding the strong fragrance of osmanthus, making people want to eat it again.

However, the price of a bag is as high as half a tael of silver.

If it weren't for giving it away, Yan Xia wouldn't buy it at all.

Of course, Yi Shangpin's main customer source is not poor people like her.

I heard that wealthy families in the county buy their pastries here.

"Let's go and visit the pastry shops in the town."

Yan Xia took Shi Xiaohe to visit seven or eight houses before she was done.

The pastries sold in each shop are indeed very similar.

For example, every shop has sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and the same amount of poria cake is sold.

As well as the common mung bean cake, Gorgon cake, water chestnut cake, lotus cake, cold cake, dragon beard cake, walnut cake, pea yellow, glutinous rice dumplings and so on.

Some are seasonal limited editions.

After all, unlike osmanthus, it can be pickled and used throughout the year.

As for Zhouji Suxiangfang opposite her shop.

Yan Xia did not go in, because her face would probably be recognized by Zhao Yuefang's brother.

She asked her daughter-in-law to go in and weigh a little of each item.

Tasted them all.

It's very ordinary. It has no advantages except that it's cheap. Some pastries taste like eating sand, and the sweetness is exaggerated, which can be said to be cloying.

Therefore, his audience is all people from surrounding villages.

"Mom, should we buy the things we need to make pastries?"

Shi Xiaohe was not picky. Yan Xia took the cake and put it down after one bite. She took it and finished it without dissatisfaction. The ones she had not bitten were taken home to her sister-in-law and the others.

She asked Yan Xia while eating.

"Buy, Mom, there is still a little money here, but not much. It happens to be getting late, let's go back after buying."
