”I'm not hungry, why are you looking for me?” Xia Li asked Sun Chun.
”Who said that they were going to buy a shop today? Could it be that you've paid your debt and are preparing to sleep soundly every day? ” Sun Chun was a little unhappy and could not help but tease her.
”I remember now, let's go. You should put the food back in the kitchen.” As Xia Li said that, he directly went around Sun Chun and waited outside the door.
Sun Chun brought the food to the kitchen. When he arrived at the door, Xia Li had already walked forward a little, and the atmosphere was different from before, when they chatted and laughed; this time, Xia Li especially restrained himself, and maintained a safe distance from Sun Chun. The two walked forward, one behind the other, and only silence was left, the atmosphere was a little suffocating.
Xia Li also felt that it was a little uncomfortable at the start, and she couldn't help but say a few words to ease the atmosphere a few times. But when she thought about how when this man wasn't here, she would sink into too deep of a depression, and the one who would be hurt would be herself. It would be better to just distance herself from him slowly from the pain, so that when he left, she wouldn't feel too sad.
Sun Chun naturally noticed Xia Li's intentional estrangement. He felt a slight pain in his heart, as if someone had stabbed him in the heart. Although it was the result he wanted, it was still extremely uncomfortable when the situation had developed as he had wished.
The two of them arrived at the town in silence. By this time, the market place in the town had already become lively.
Xia Li and Xia Qing went to the bank first and obtained 400 taels of silver, which they used to rent or buy shops.
Xia Li and Sun Chun arrived at the teeth shop that was located in the golden area of the Red River Town. Xia Li familiarly found the tooth shop Ah Mu who helped her buy a house in the Tianshui Village last time.
”Miss Xia Li, what kind of house did you come here to buy again?”
”I want to buy a shop and open my hospital.” Xia Li went straight to the point.
Ah Mu's eyes turned, he thought about controlling the room source in his hand, and seeing that Xia Li was rather generous the last time he attacked, he took the initiative to ask.
”Miss Xia Li, when opening the hospital, we must definitely choose a place with a large number of people, bustling area, and good feng shui area. To be honest, I have a few shops in my possession, I will bring you to them, and only those that you like, the prices will be negotiable.”
Ah Mu said as he pulled Xia Li to see the house.
”Where are the official teeth? This shop in the town is not like the village where there is no official contract and no official seal on the contract. Even if Xia Li obtains the house, it would be very hard for the authorities to recognize him, so when the time comes, he would be punished by half for buying the house, who would be able to bear the consequences? ”
Sun Chun stood beside Xia Li and looked at him coldly, asking without a trace of politeness.
”This?” Naturally, Miss Xia Li had already chosen the shop. We would ask Master Guan Ya to supervise the transaction and facilitate the completion of this transaction. ” Ah Mu was startled, and quickly reacted.
Xia Li listened to Ah Mu's stuttering explanation, and was immediately alerted. She had just arrived, so she did not know much about the ancient rules of the trade.
Xia Li gratefully looked at Sun Chun, patted his shoulder, put away his smiling face, and turned to face Fang Xing Ah Mu.
”Don't play any more tricks. Otherwise, I can find someone else for this business.”
”I don't dare, I really don't dare.” Ah Mu was so anxious that he started sweating profusely as he shook his hands frantically.
”Let's go to the shop.” Xia Li did not reply to Ah Mu's apology. Instead, he turned and urged him to leave.
”Alright, alright, I'll take you guys there.” Ah Mu wiped the sweat off his forehead and tried his best to force out a smile that was uglier than a cry, bringing Xia Li and Sun Chun along with him as they walked down the street.
She only felt her heart shake a little, and quickly turned her head around, pretending to be nothing. As she walked forward, her heart was still beating non-stop, her little face was hot, and when she passed the bustling market, she conveniently bought a fan, and continuously fanned it, trying to fan the heat on her face.
Along the way, people stopped to look at four or five courtyards. For a time, Xia Li did not manage to think of which one she should enter, but when Ah Mu brought her to the last courtyard, her eyes immediately lit up.
In front of him was a courtyard filled with beggars. The door was covered with dust and cobwebs, making it look quite dilapidated.
Ah Mu pushed the door open, waving the dust in the air, he introduced the both of them.
”Miss Xia Li, in this courtyard, you can set up your hospital in the front yard, and in the back yard, you can set up track and field, as well as vegetable gardens, orchards and shops. It's just that you haven't had the time to tidy them up yet.” Just as Ah Mu finished speaking, Xia Li asked impatiently.
”How long has this courtyard been sold to your Fang Clan?”
