"I thought twenty taels was too expensive, so I inquired secretly, but no one asked about this house.
Business has been bad, and the boss is losing money every day. If I negotiate carefully, the price should be lower."
"Does the house belong to this couple?"
Xing Rui asked Li Huimei, she shook her head,
"No, but this house was rented by them for five years. After working for just over a year, they lost money and couldn't continue working.
There are still more than three years left, so I gave it to him in one lump sum, so he should be able to get a smaller amount."
While he was talking, the little woman came over carrying a drawer of steamed buns.
"The two Chaos are cooking. They'll be ready in a moment."
With that said, the little woman was about to walk away, but Li Huimei stopped her.
“Honey boss, is this house for rent?”
"Yes, sir, do you want to rent?"
Li Huimei did not answer directly, but looked around and asked with some worry,
"We have been here for a while, but your business is not doing well either!"
The little woman understood the meaning of these words, turned around hurriedly and walked back. She bowed down and looked at Li Huimei and explained,
"You guys came early today. The Master has to wait for a while. So, sir, do you want to rent a house?"
Obviously, these words from the little woman's mouth, coupled with the eagerness in her eyes, had already betrayed her embarrassment.
Li Huimei is so shrewd. She clearly likes this house in her heart, but she still deliberately frowns and says with a measured look,
"I want to rent a shop. I've been looking around the town for a few days. I think...oh,"
Li Huimei looked at the woman and smiled slightly, saying,
"What I said may not be correct, it's just my own opinion. The reason your business is not doing well here is because you are too greedy."
Speaking of this, Li Huimei seemed to suddenly remember something and asked the little woman who was already a little uneasy.
"By the way, how much is your annual rent here?"
"Twenty taels a year. When we rented it, we rented it for five years. If you rent it,
There are still three years and seven months of rent left. If you give us seventy taels of silver, this house is yours."
"Three years and seven months, huh?"
After all, Li Huimei was an old fox. She deliberately pondered for a long time, making the little woman more and more anxious.
"Sir, this is already the cheapest store on the whole street. If the old man at home hadn't been sick, I wouldn't have cashed it out in such a hurry."
Xing Rui had been sitting opposite and watching with cold eyes. Old Man Niu tied up the cow and walked in.
Not knowing what happened, Xing Rui asked him to sit on a stool to the side.
"Three years and seven months, seventy taels of silver is actually not expensive, but to be honest, you have fallen behind a bit.
If you want to do business, of course you have to choose a better place. Even if you make more money, you can make more money. Are you here?"
Li Huimei shook her head, looking disinterested, and looked at Old Man Niu who was sitting on the side and smiled,
"Uncle Niu, the ox cart is bolted."
"It's tied."
"Chaos is cooked..."
A man's voice came from the kitchen behind, and the little woman straightened up her waist, which had been bent for a long time, and went away with a disappointed look on her face.
"Ah……"
Watching the little woman leave, Li Huimei looked at Xing Rui with a sly smile like a fox and said,
"Just watch, she will come to me to negotiate the price after a while."
Xing Rui nodded, admitting that this little woman had already been taken over by the old fox Li Huimei from the beginning.
The problem is that this little woman's business is really bleak.
As for what she said about the elderly family member being sick, Xing Rui somehow hoped that it was just an excuse on her part!
Otherwise, if they go out to do business this time, they may really have to lose all their money.
"Chaos is coming..."
There was a sound of chaos, but a stout man came out.
He came over holding a square plate with three large bowls of hot bastards on it.
This man had some shrewdness in his eyes, and he quickly placed the Chaos in his hand in front of everyone, but he didn't look like he was in a hurry to leave.
He looked at Xing Rui and Li Huimei, bowed and asked with a smile,
"You two guests want to rent a house?"
Li Huimei secretly smiled at Xing Rui, looked up at the man and said,
"I want to rent it."
"Oh, that's okay. My mother-in-law just told me that the guest officer is worried that our business will not be good because we are trying to get rich here.
I don’t know what kind of business you plan to do, sir?”
Obviously, this man is much smarter than his mother-in-law,
Li Huimei, an old fox, had planned that someone would come to her to negotiate the price, but she didn't expect to ask her what her business was, which was a bit unexpected.
"Oh, I...I also make food."
Li Huimei was caught off guard by the question, so she lied.
I don’t want a man to smile,
"It seems that your guest has some profitable business to do, so I would like to wish you a great fortune."
As the man said this, he handed over his hands and actually said hello.
"I still have a little more than three years and seven months in this house. I think my mother-in-law told you just now that when we rented it, we paid twenty taels of silver for a year.
To be honest, my father broke his leg two months ago, and there was no one working at home. I was so confused that I had no intention of opening a store here.
You have also seen that this business is not doing well, so I want to find a suitable person to cash it out. What my mother-in-law just said was seventy taels of silver, right?"
Li Huimei nodded hurriedly.
"Okay, one price, sixty-five taels of silver. If you think it's ok, you can keep it. If it's not ok, let's leave."
The man didn't talk nonsense. He looked at Xing Rui and Li Huimei, bowed and smiled,
"Sir, please use it slowly."
Please use it slowly. The man stepped away and walked away.
Seeing the man retreating to the kitchen, Li Huimei lowered her voice and said to Xing Rui,
"I didn't expect this man to be so shrewd. He saw that I wasn't in the business of making food, and he was sure that I was attracted to this house."
"Sister-in-law, do you want to rent or not?"
"Of course I have to rent it. You can't find such a big house at this price and on the main street.
Hurry up and eat, and pick up the banknote later, it’s settled today.”
Xing Rui admired Li Huimei's courage and gave this woman a big thumbs up in her heart.
After dinner, Li Huimei negotiated the price with the boss and the landlady, and Xing Rui accompanied her to the bank to pick up the banknotes.
Old Man Niu was jealous when he saw Li Huimei casually taking out seventy taels of silver.
After paying the deposit, I found a ghostwriter on the street to write a new contract, and the matter was settled.
As for the things in the house, Li Huimei didn't want any of them, so naturally they had to clean them out.
After all, I don’t need these houses myself, so I can still make two bucks from them.
"Xing Rui, what do you think? Should I start looking for someone to open the cabinet now?"
Xing Rui looked at the layout of the room, imagined what it would look like after it was cleared, thought for a moment and said,
"Sister-in-law, don't be in a hurry. Let me go back and think about it and draw a sketch."
