Chapter 16 Selling the Shop
Ye Jintang dealt with Manager Wen, although he did it quietly behind closed doors.
But several other shop owners also heard some news, and two cloth shop owners even wanted to run away with the money.
As a result, as soon as they packed their valuables, they were caught by Ye Jintang.
She used this tactic of luring the snake out of its hole very effectively.
If she were asked to check every store one by one, she would be exhausted just by checking the accounts. Now that the frightened shopkeeper had stepped forward himself, it saved her a lot of trouble.
The total amount of money embezzled by the two cloth shop owners was less than half of that embezzled by Shopkeeper Wen.
Ye Jintang didn't waste any time talking to them. He just packed them all up and sent them to the Wen family to be dealt with by Old Master Wen.
After two days of counting the inventory in each shop, Ye Jintang finally had a general understanding of the real estate in his hands.
"Madam Liu, I want to sell my shop in Yuezhou City. Do I need to go to the pawnbroker to ask for help so that the sale can be done faster?"
"That's right. With a real estate agent on the side, it will be much easier for a girl to sell a shop, and she won't be afraid of being cheated by the buyer."
Ye Jintang nodded slightly. The brokerage firm was like an intermediary. As long as a small commission was paid, they would help with the transaction.
And there is no need to worry that the other party is a liar. After all, the pawnshop belongs to the state. Cheating the pawnshop is cheating the state, and the person will be sent to jail.
"I'll go to the dental office again tomorrow to see if I can find a suitable buyer as soon as possible."
Nanny Liu didn't ask much about why Ye Jintang suddenly wanted to sell his property.
She vaguely guessed that the other relatives of the Ye family might be wiped out.
If Ye Jintang did not sell off these properties, they would eventually be divided among his relatives.
But if she sold her property and had some money on hand, those relatives would not have snatched all the money from her.
Ye Jintang kept reading the account books until late at night before he had a general understanding of the several shops.
The next day, she put on a human skin mask and went to a pawnshop to inquire about the price. If she sold all her shops, she could get at least 2 taels of silver.
This is a huge sum of money, which would be at least 4500 million RMB.
With such a large sum of money, as long as Ye Jintang doesn't squander it excessively, he will probably have some left over if he spends it throughout his lifetime.
She acted decisively and immediately asked her broker to help her find a reliable merchant to take over her shop.
"Sir, you came at the right time. A Mr. Qi just came here this morning. He is a wealthy businessman from Yi'an Prefecture. His daughter will be married in Yue Prefecture at the end of the year, so he wanted to prepare a dowry for her in advance."
"Young Master, if you want to sell your shop as soon as possible, only a wealthy merchant like Master Qi can afford it."
"That's great. I'll come over to see Mr. Qi tomorrow morning and ask him to take a look at my shop so that we can settle this matter as soon as possible."
"Okay, I'll send someone to inform Mr. Qi right away."
When Ye Jintang heard that Uncle Qi was here to buy a dowry for his daughter, he would definitely want to buy farmland and a manor, so she just happened to sell him the land outside the city.
After leaving the dental clinic, Ye Jintang didn't even have time to rest. He immediately took a carriage to the farm in the suburbs to take a look and estimate the approximate price.
Now she really discovered the advantages of official teeth. It was really convenient for buying and selling things.
If she were to look for someone to take over these properties and shops herself, it would probably take quite a while.
The managers on the farm were all honest people. Knowing that Ye Jintang wanted to see the account book, they gave it to her without saying a word.
He even told her everything about this year's summer harvest.
"Wuwei, give the list of these farms to the broker we met today and tell him that I want to sell them too."
"Yes."
Zhou Wuwei took the envelope and ran away without saying a word.
"I'm exhausted after running all day."
Ye Jintang leaned on the Luohan bed, Luzhu brought her some iced watermelon juice, and Lianqiao came over to help her massage her legs.
The cook in the kitchen had also boiled water so that she could take a hot bath at any time to relieve her fatigue.
"Young lady, today a maid named Zhao came to see you. I didn't let her in. I just said that you were not in and asked her to come back in the evening."
"Oh, it seems that Governor Song is still not giving up."
Ye Jintang drank some iced watermelon juice and felt full of energy again. From then on, she would not go out at noon because it was really hot these days.
"Is Aunt Zhao from the Song family?"
Nanny Liu was confused. Song Ji was already badly injured, but the Song family still sent people over. Could it be that they really felt that Ye Jintang was easy to bully?
"She is probably here to get information. If she comes, just say that I am sick from the shock and don't want to see her. If she asks you for information, just say that I am ill and can't take care of anything. You are all sent by Shopkeeper Wen."
"Yes, Nanny Zhao will come in the evening, and I will reply to her like this."
Ye Jintang planned to play a trick on Governor Song to delay time and make him mistakenly believe that Manager Wen also coveted the Ye family's property.
By the time he realized what was happening, she had almost sold all her property.
Just as Nanny Liu said, Nanny Zhao came again in the evening.
"Hey, why did you suddenly get sick? You were fine a few days ago."
Aunt Zhao had a look of disbelief on her face, and she glanced towards the yard from time to time with her little eyes.
Unfortunately, the yard was so quiet that she couldn't find out anything.
"That night there were thunder and lightning. The girl was timid and was frightened to death. She fell ill the next day."
"It's been several days, and the girl is still not feeling well."
Nanny Zhao obviously didn't believe it. Song Ji was already so badly injured, how could Ye Jintang be frightened sick by the thunder? It was obvious that this was just her excuse for not wanting to see her.
The matter of Song Ji was like a layer of window paper. No one on either side mentioned it. They all had their own thoughts in their minds, but when they spoke, they pretended that they knew nothing.
I have to say that speaking is really an art. If you are not smart, it will be difficult to communicate.
But Matron Liu and Matron Zhao were chatting animatedly, one asking for news and the other spreading holiday news.
"Madam Liu, you look unfamiliar to me. I wonder when you came to serve Miss Ye."
"A few days ago, Shopkeeper Wen sent a few of us to serve Miss Ye, saying that Miss Ye is young and living alone in such a large courtyard is really worrying."
"That's true. Miss Ye looks very delicate. She should have more people around her to serve her."
Nanny Zhao had a smile on her face and wanted to ask more about what was happening in the courtyard, but Nanny Liu suddenly became tight-lipped again.
Since Nanny Zhao couldn't see Ye Jintang and couldn't find out anything wrong, she didn't waste time here. She exchanged a few words of greeting and left in a hurry.
After coming out of Feicui Hutong, she deliberately went to the Silver Shop, only to find that the door of the Silver Shop was locked.
Nanny Zhao was even more confused, not knowing what Ye Jintang and Shopkeeper Wen were talking about.
