"I want to see a shop, do you have a suitable one here?" He Yunxi asked.
The smile on Zhang Si's face deepened, and he quickly responded: "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, can be found on the edge of the city, some facing the street but not facing the street, some with a courtyard or without a courtyard, they are all available. Mrs. Lu, what do you want?
Like?"
He Yunxi thought for a while and said, "I want one with a yard. The location doesn't need to be particularly good."
Her condiment business is not like a restaurant or grocery store, which requires a lot of traffic. The prices of such stores are often relatively high and not cost-effective.
"By the way, it needs to be closer to the college." The location of the college is a bit remote, not a prosperous area. Except for the two streets near the college, there are no particularly prosperous businesses.
Therefore, the price of this piece should not be very expensive.
"Okay, let me go and look through it." Zhang Si turned around and went into the room, took out a notebook, came to the counter and looked through it.
"Mrs. Lu, according to your request, there are three shops for sale close to the college and those with courtyards. One is smaller and closest to the college, only one or two hundred meters away. The front shop has an area of fifty square meters.
There are three rooms in the courtyard behind, and the asking price is five hundred taels of silver."
"It's so small, but so expensive?"
"Isn't this right next to the college?"
He Yunxi directly rejected it. The shop in the front was still small, and there were few rooms in the back. It would be inconvenient for people to live in it in the future, and the price was still expensive.
"The second one is one street away from the college. It has a shop of 110 square meters in the front and a small courtyard in the back. It has four rooms and a kitchen. The asking price is 800 taels."
"The third one is two streets away from the college. The shop in front is only sixty or seventy square meters, and there is a courtyard in the back. The courtyard is connected to the residence. The residence is a two-entry courtyard with a total of eight rooms. The asking price for this one is nine hundred
Two taels of silver. This house is really good, but the location is a little off, and the person is in a hurry to sell it, otherwise it wouldn’t be worth the price.”
"Only these three?"
"There are other ones with small courtyards, but they are farther away from the college."
"Then let's look at the second and third shops first." He Yunxi said, "If you don't like them, then look at the others."
"Okay, shall we go now?"
"good."
Zhang Si took them to see the second shop first. It was indeed only one street away from the college, and it only took about ten minutes to walk.
The shop is not well maintained and looks a bit shabby, as does the yard behind it.
He Yunxi didn't like it, so they went to see another shop.
This shop is located in the middle area between the commercial street of the college and the busiest street, and there is a residential area at the other end. It seems to be in the connecting area of the three sides, but in fact it can cover all three areas.
It’s just that the shop area in front is not very big.
But this was enough for He Yunxi.
She only plans to sell condiments, and this area is enough for her to display a lot of soy sauce and vinegar.
And it is kept relatively clean here, unlike the previous one which looked greasy.
"This shop used to be a cloth shop, and the one before that was a restaurant."
The place where cloth is sold must be clean, otherwise how will the cloth be sold if it is dirty?
"No wonder." He Yunxi thought this was okay, "Let's go take a look at the yard."
"Let's go in directly from the back." Zhang Si closed the door of the shop and took them to see the small courtyard behind the shop. This small courtyard is not small. If an awning is built, the soy sauce and vinegar can be placed here.
.And there is a small room at the back where people can rest.
There is a door at the back of the small courtyard, and there is a very narrow alley when you open it. There is a door twenty or thirty meters away on the other side of the alley. The door is locked. Zhang Si unlocks it and goes in, and then he arrives at the side door of a house.
To the right of the side door is the main entrance to the yard.
"This is the front entrance. There are three living rooms, one kitchen, and one utility room." Zhang Si introduced, "There is also a well over the kitchen."
There was an old tree beside the yard. He Yunxi went to see the tree, and only after hearing Zhang Si's words did he realize that there was really a well over there.
Yes, He Yunxi likes this very much.
In this day and age, it is difficult to find a house with a well.
Moreover, the yard is very big, so if you want to do something here in the future, it will be more convenient.
Zhang Si and other He Yunxi visited every room and said, "Let's go see the second entrance at the back?"
"good."
Entering through the middle door, you will see the living room directly opposite. There is a main room next to the living room, four wing rooms on both sides, and two wing rooms.
He Yunxi took a look around the room. Some of the furniture inside was 70% to 80% new, and it looked like he hadn't lived there long.
She saw another door on the right side and asked, "Is there a room at the back?"
"There is an open space behind. The old lady of the family likes to farm, so they gave her some land to plant." Zhang Si explained.
"Let's go over and take a look."
After passing through the door, there is indeed a piece of land behind it, about half an acre, which is usually used to grow vegetables, fruits and so on.
There are still a few unharvested cabbages in the field, which are now rotten.
He Yunxi walked around and was very satisfied with the yard.
"Mrs. Lu, what do you think of this?" Zhang Si asked.
"It's okay." He Yunxi didn't show any particular satisfaction. He looked at the still very new house and asked, "You must have lived in this house for a short time, right? Why do you want to sell it?"
"Because the young master of this family passed the Jinshi examination before and initially stayed in the capital, he will be transferred to another state capital to serve as an official in the second half of this year. The family plans to buy property elsewhere and wants to sell this house.
I bought it in exchange for some money. They lived in this house for three or four years before their family moved to the capital, so it looks so new." Zhang Si explained, "This place is actually a good place, but it is a little far away from other places.
That’s it. It’s only been out for two days. If other people got the news, I’m afraid they would have snatched it up long ago.”
Zhang Si's words are true. If you know that this house has produced two Jinshis, based on the beliefs of these people now, there must be many rich people who want to enjoy themselves.
"Can the price be any lower?"
"This is really important. You are all my regular customers, and I didn't even tell you about the false price." Zhang Si said.
He Yunxi calculated in his mind that the price of the shop in this area alone should be two to three hundred taels, and the house could be worth four to five hundred taels, which together would only be seven or eight hundred taels. Now that the other party is asking for nine hundred taels, he is actually trying to sell it.
He got the title of Jinshi.
But she likes this house better.
There are relatively few people in this area. If Mrs. Liu comes to live here, she won't have to worry so much about contact with people. Moreover, the two yards are large, so it will be convenient to dry anything in the future. There is also a piece of land behind where you can plant things. It is indeed
Not bad.
It's just that the price is a bit expensive, and she doesn't have that much money on hand.
