Chapter 96

In the early morning of the next day, Chu Xiaomeng was woken up early by Dan Qing. It was still dark and bright. The two of them packed themselves up and took their things with them. This time they went out from the gate openly.

The guard who had been watching at the door all night saw Chu Xiaomeng and Danqing and opened the door for them without any need for them to say anything. It was obvious that Eunuch Cheng had given them instructions early in the morning.

Chu Xiaomeng handed a few steamed buns to the guard, which she made while eating breakfast.

After leaving the house, Chu Xiaomeng went to borrow a carriage, negotiated the price with the driver for a while, and then the two of them got on the carriage smoothly.

Chu Xiaomeng fell asleep next to the carriage, and Danqing didn't bother her, and looked outside quietly. The street was not very lively, but small vendors were coming out one after another to do their business, and buns were being sold.

At the earliest, you can smell the fragrance from a distance, and the carriage passes by, making your mouth water with greed.

Their first trip was to find a place to have breakfast. Chu Xiaomeng gave the buns to the guards, but they hadn't even eaten them yet.

Danqing knew the way, and there were several stores that she had frequented before. No matter where Chu Xiaomeng decided to go, all she could think about at this time was catching up on sleep.

This kind of weather changes very quickly. It was still bright when I first got up. After the carriage passed for a short time, the sun had already peeked out, and there were gradually more pedestrians on the street.

Chu Xiaomeng was still wearing a coat, so she wasn't afraid of being frozen by the morning mist. She just leaned on the car, her head swaying with the fluctuations of the carriage, but it didn't disturb her.

Her eyes were tightly closed, her long eyelashes trembled from time to time, one meter of sunlight happened to shine on her fair face, and her small nose moved from time to time, which looked very vivid.

They stopped outside a pancake shop. There were many people eating in the shop, and there were seven or eight people waiting in line for takeout at the door. As soon as Chu Xiaomeng arrived, her taste buds were aroused by the aroma. Danqing smiled and introduced to her,

The pan-fried buns made by this restaurant are her favorite, and they can be said to be the hottest in the entire capital.

The meat buns are fried directly on the iron plate one by one, poured with oil, and bubbles are sizzling. When the heat reaches a certain level, immediately sprinkle some water on it, cover the pot, and it will take about two minutes.

When the pan is in the pan, sprinkle with black sesame seeds, and the golden pan-fried buns are completed.

It took them a while to wait for their pan-fried buns. Chu Xiaomeng couldn't wait to pick them up with chopsticks. The bottom of the buns were fried to a golden brown, and the color alone gave them full marks.

Chu Xiaomeng ate with gusto. This trip was not in vain, the team was not in vain, and the guards' buns were not in vain.

There are all kinds of snacks in the capital. Although Chu Xiaomeng has visited a few times, she has never had such a good time. She ate from the streets to the end of the street, ate snacks, ate fruits, and bought some trinkets.

All in all, Chu Xiaomeng was stunned.

However, she did not forget about the business. She wanted to help Nanfeng carry things to his friends, and then get rid of his friends to help carry them to his family, because the friend he was referring to was the one who wanted to resell the shop. Chu Xiao

Meng just wanted to take a look at the store. If she was satisfied, she might be able to open a small store first.

Zangyaxuan is located in the north of the city. They drove for a long time in a carriage before arriving. When the owner of the restaurant heard that Chu Xiaomeng was a friend of Nanfeng, he immediately took them to a private room on the second floor. Chu Xiaomeng looked around.

Look at the environment of Cangya Xuan.

Zangya Xuan has a total of two floors, with the lobby on the first floor and private rooms on the second floor. Although it is very clean and tidy in terms of hygiene, it can be seen from the corners that this store is quite old and may have been renovated several times.

times, but after the owner wanted to resell it, he had no intention of spending time on it.

The owner of the shop deliberately put aside what he was doing and ordered the best wine and food to entertain them personally. This made Chu Xiaomeng a little flattered. It happened to be lunch time, so Chu Xiaomeng did not interrupt them.

"My surname is Liu, Liu Jun. You can call me Boss Liu. What do you call the two girls?" The shop owner spoke first, with a smile on his face and looked at the two people very attentively.

Seeing that the store owner was so straight-forward, Chu Xiaomeng didn't go out of her way. After introducing herself and Danqing, she handed the things Nanfeng asked her to bring to Boss Liu.

"Please give it to Nanfeng's family again, so that our trip was not in vain."

Boss Liu's expression was a little strange, but it was so fleeting that even Chu Xiaomeng and Dan Qing couldn't see the problem. He took the things and asked tremblingly: "Which family are the two girls from? But Nan

Master Feng personally commissioned it?"

Chu Xiaomeng did not directly say that they were from Prince Yan's Mansion. She only said that Nanfeng was also her friend. She was just doing something to help her friend bring something. In fact, she had her own purpose in coming here.

"I heard that Boss Liu is preparing to transfer the store? Are you leaving Bianjing?" Chu Xiaomeng asked. This was the main purpose of her coming here.

The layout of Cangya Xuan is not big, but with Chu Xiaomeng's current ability, it is impossible to buy it easily, but it is not impossible for her to understand the market conditions first.

Boss Liu nodded, frowned and said that his family had committed a crime and had a conflict with the officials. The matter was resolved a while ago, but the business is getting worse day by day. He has been working in this capital for more than ten years.

Although the reputation is good, there are many new stores, and the number of customers is much less than before. The conflict with the government has made the store deserted. So I want to move out of the capital and find another place outside.

Find a way to make a living.

When Chu Xiaomeng first came to Cangya Xuan, she felt deserted. After all, it was dinner time, but there were so few people there. No wonder the shop owner still had time to entertain them personally.

"Boss Liu, if you resell this store, how much is the price per tael?" Chu Xiaomeng asked directly. She really didn't know the price on the market, and she had no chance to know the price on the market so far. But

There has to be a number so she knows how long it will take to make enough money.

Boss Liu was a little surprised to hear Chu Xiaomeng's question, and couldn't help but ask: "Miss Chu asked, does she want to buy my store?"

Chu Xiaomeng wanted to buy it, but she didn't have the ability yet, so she replied: "If you have this plan, you can give me a rough estimate and I will go back and think about it."

Boss Liu obviously didn't know that Chu Xiaomeng wanted to buy his shop at the beginning, or in other words, he didn't think that a woman like Chu Xiaomeng would be able to buy his shop, so he didn't buy it from him at all.

Think about it this way.

He quickly thought of Nanfeng, who must have introduced him. After asking Chu Xiaomeng, it was indeed as he suspected.

"Since Miss Chu was introduced by Mr. Nanfeng, I have to sell Mr. Nanfeng's face. However, because my wife has been pregnant for six months, I can't make a big move for the time being. I have to wait until the child is born before leaving. This Zangyaxuan

It will still be open for a while. If Miss Chu is not in a hurry, it will not be handed over to you until after the new year." When Boss Liu saw that Chu Xiaomeng really wanted to buy his store, he told her more clearly.

After hearing this, Chu Xiaomeng's eyes gleamed and she hurriedly said: "There's no rush, no rush, and I'm not in a hurry either. Boss Liu, just let your sister-in-law give birth to the child safely. When you want to move out of the capital,

When the time comes, I will take over again? What do you think?"

After hearing this, Boss Liu naturally agreed and set the price at two thousand taels, saying that he had given the price just for the sake of Master Nanfeng and because Chu Xiaomeng was so cheerful.

After hearing this, Chu Xiaomeng broke into a cold sweat in her heart. Maybe this was different from the small restaurant Danqing told her about. But she thought that the configuration and reputation of Zangya Xuan should be worth two thousand taels. Besides, Liu

The boss also said that when Cangya Xuan's business was at its best, it made a net profit of two hundred taels a month.

With her progress of 20 taels a month in the palace plus the reward of 5 taels for the maidservant, and Danqing 10 taels a month, I don’t know how long it will take to save up to 200 taels!

But with the little money they have, two thousand taels is an astronomical figure. How can they earn it in the year of the monkey and the month of the horse?

Just this number shocked Chu Xiaomeng's excited heart. It was indeed different from what she imagined, and it was really not that simple.

But she wants to leave Prince Yan's Mansion, and she doesn't know when she can realize her dream.

In her previous life, she had no way to realize her dream. Once she died, would she have no chance in this life?

When she first came to this world, Chu Xiaomeng didn't have many pursuits. She just hoped that she could live well and eat and drink well. But it was different now. She understood that no one could be trusted and she needed to go.

Strengthen yourself so that no one can easily bully her, and be strong enough that you can live well without relying on others.

Not only her, but also Danqing. Danqing followed her without hesitation, and she also wanted her to live the life she wanted.

After leaving Zangya Xuan, Chu Xiaomeng was like an eggplant beaten by frost. Her face was full of frustration and she had no interest in anything. Dan Qing comforted her again and again, but it didn't have much effect.

Danqing didn't want to see Chu Xiaomeng unhappy, so he kept thinking of ways to enlighten her, "Miss, even if we can't buy a restaurant at once, we can still open a small store. As long as we save enough, we can buy a small store."

With the money, can’t we do business? Moreover, with Miss’s skills, our business will surely prosper. By then, won’t we have enough money to buy a restaurant?”

Chu Xiaomeng rubbed Danqing's head. How could she not understand? Just thinking that they had to save money for a small store for a long time made her very disappointed. Maybe she didn't know much about the market here, so she really understood
