Views:

"Brother, where is the nearest dental clinic?"

On the bustling streets of Qing'an Fucheng, the handsome scholar stopped a passing man, bowed his hands and gave a salute, before speaking with a smile.

The man bowed his hands and smiled, "Go straight ahead for about half a mile, cross a street, turn left, cross two streets, and you will see a market."

"The dental shop is in the market?" the handsome scholar looked at him and asked.

"No, no, there are many people in Fangshi, Xiongtai is there to find someone to ask, someone should know where the tooth shop is." The man smiled, turned and left calmly.

"Hehe..." Looking at the back of the other party leaving, Li Yi pulled a smile on his face, and there seemed to be thousands of galloping horses in his heart.

He was not in a hurry to ask Yaxing. He was a little tired after walking all the way down the mountain. He rested for a while at a certain tea stall on the street, thinking in his heart whether he would have to buy a carriage for transportation sometime, Liu Between Yezhai and Qing'an Fucheng, there are more than 20 miles of mountain roads back and forth. If you only rely on walking, you will have to delay for more than an hour just on the road.

However, it seems that it is useless to buy a carriage. In some places, the mountain roads are rugged and the traffic is inconvenient, and the carriage cannot pass...

No wonder Liuyezhai was so poor before he came. He didn't even understand the principle of "to get rich, build roads first". He guarded a few acres of barren land and lived an isolated life for decades, so he could become rich. No wonder.

After drinking a cup of tea to quench his thirst, he asked the owner of the tea stall by the way. Unexpectedly, the other party really knew where the tooth shop was, and enthusiastically pointed out the direction for Li Yi.

The tooth shop in this era is equivalent to the 58.com in later generations. Renting houses, buying and selling maids and servants are all within the business scope of the tooth shop.

In the dental office, there is no need to worry about encountering black intermediaries, because all dental professionals are registered by the government and work with a certificate.

According to the guidance of the tea stall owner, Li Yi quickly found the tooth shop.

As soon as he stepped into the gate, several people surrounded him.

"My lord, do you want to rent a house or buy a maid?"

"My lord, I grew up in Fucheng, and I am very familiar with it. No matter what requirements you have, I will definitely satisfy you!"

"Young master..."

All the buddies in the tooth shop were enthusiastic and tight. This scene was a little similar to the last time when Li Xuan took him to the brothel.

However, it is no wonder that they are so enthusiastic. People in this industry earn more and less, and it depends entirely on their performance. If customers want to consult here, they have to pay a certain fee. Their wages are drawn from it. Come, and the more guests they recruit, the more their commission will naturally be.

If you meet someone who is more generous, as long as you satisfy the guests, you will naturally be rewarded with silver. The young man in front of you looks extraordinary, and he must be a big customer. Kungfu is not bad.

Li Yi picked a guy who seemed a little shrewd, and the faces of the others couldn't help showing disappointment, but they had no choice but to back away.

"Son, what do you need, just ask, the little one will definitely satisfy you!" The guy rubbed his hands and said with a smile on his face.

"I need to rent a shop in Fucheng. It's a moderate size, preferably in a prosperous area. I don't know how the rent is here?" Li Yi said straight to the point without deviating from him.

The guy was obviously very familiar with this, and he said without thinking: "If it is an ordinary location, the rent of an ordinary shop is only about one hundred taels. Three hundred taels of silver."

This price is not much different from what Li Yi expected.

However, three hundred taels of silver is not a small amount. After the shop is closed, it will definitely need to be renovated, at least a few dozen taels will be spent. In this way, there will not be enough money to buy and make Ruyi dew. of raw materials.

"Three hundred taels of silver, but it's a bit more expensive..." Li Yi smiled, took out a piece of silver from his arms, and put it on the table in front of the guy.

The shattered silver was at least one or two. When the guy saw this, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he swept his sleeves on the table quietly, and the silver disappeared. When he looked at Li Yishi again, the smile on his face changed. more brilliant up.

"Young master has found the right person this time. The young one just happened to know that there is a shop in a prosperous area that is eager to sell, and the price is about 20% lower than the market price. If the young master is interested, the young one will take him to have a look right away!"

Facts have proved that money can make ghosts turn the millstone, this saying is common in ancient and modern times.

Most things in the world can be solved with money, if not, it means that the money you give is not enough.

One tael of silver could make the guy's attitude extremely enthusiastic, so he took Li Yi to see the shop right away.

The location of the shop is good, just above the main street of Qing'an Fucheng, outside is the street with people coming and going. The shop is about three feet long and two feet wide, and the space is quite spacious.

What's more, there is actually a small courtyard and two rooms behind the shop. According to the guy, the family who originally did business here moved to Kyoto after their business grew. , the shop here was left idle.

However, the shop here is located in the bustling area of Fucheng. It would be too wasteful to leave it empty like this, so they sublet it out for them, because the other party is in a hurry, and the rent is much lower.

As for the courtyard and house behind the shop, they are also given away for free.

After seeing the shop and the courtyard behind, Li Yi felt a little uneasy.

You can rent such a place for less than three hundred taels, which is almost the same as a pie in the sky...

Looking suspiciously at the shop assistant, he asked, "Tell me honestly, is there anything wrong with this shop, has there been a murder case... or has it been haunted?"

When the guy heard the words, he was taken aback for a moment, and then he said with a wry smile: "Master, you have wronged the younger one. Everything the younger one said is true, and there is no concealment. If you don't believe me, you can ask around..."

The guy felt bitter at this moment, one tael of silver was almost worth his monthly wages, if it wasn't for the generosity of this young man just now, he definitely wouldn't have said such a good thing so easily.

"Forget it, forget it..." Li Yi waved his hand. If there is really a problem here, Yaxing will not take such a hot potato. Moreover, you must be upright and upright, and don't doubt others casually if you have nothing to do...

At this time, a fat man with a rich body walked out from the cloth village next door. Seeing this, Li Yi hurried up.

"I don't know your surname, brother, but this shopkeeper of the cloth shop?"

The fat man nodded, and looked at Li Yi suspiciously: "Your surname is Xu, what's the matter with you?"

"Master Xu has been here for a long time, have you ever heard that the shop next door... is haunted?"

The tooth shop clerk just walked out of the shop. Hearing these words, he staggered involuntarily and nearly fell down...
