Chapter 220 She is short of money
"You really don't know?" Hua Run looked surprised. "Now everyone knows that the Wu'an Marquis's son, who had been missing for half a year, not only did he not die but also returned to the capital with a woman and a two-year-old boy."
"Everyone is speculating whether the boy is the son of the Marquis of Wu'an, and they are also speculating about the identity of you, a woman. There are all kinds of theories."
Tang Qiyue narrowed her eyes, "I remember that day at the gate of Wu'an Marquis's mansion, the people didn't see Zhao Bao being held in Xie Changjin's arms."
"Well! So what if they didn't see it? These aristocratic families are capable of knowing it. Besides, the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion is not airtight." Hua Run looked as if he was used to it, which made Tang Qiyue feel angry and uncomfortable.
"What? You have given birth to a son for Master Xie, but he is not willing to marry you?" Hua Run saw Tang Qiyue's ugly face and subconsciously thought that Xie Changjin was a scumbag.
Tang Qiyue rolled her eyes at him, "No."
But she didn't expect that Zhao Bao's secret had been kept secret for less than three days before it was known to all the people. The speed of gossip in the capital was too fast.
"That's good." Huarun smiled, "Whenever you have a wedding, remember to invite me, your partner, to have a drink!"
By then, those who had bullied Washington in the past will see how close he is to the Crown Prince's wife, and they will be angry but dare not say anything. I really want to see it soon!
Tang Qiyue didn't have time to guess what Huarun was thinking, so she instructed, "First, arrange for someone to build a workshop, and prepare the land for growing peppers. I'll send you pepper trees in a few days."
It seems that she has to start planting enough pepper trees on the land that she has not cultivated for a while.
"Okay, okay, I'll get someone to do it right away and make sure it's done well." China Resources agreed readily.
After coming out of Huafu, Tang Qiyue saw Lin San waiting at the door. She walked over quickly and asked, "When did you arrive?"
"July, I just arrived too. Didn't you ask me to go find out if there were any vacant shops for sale on that street? I went to check, and there were two, right next to each other, one big and one small. They were right in the center of the street, and very busy."
"Really? Take me to see it." Tang Qiyue followed Lin San without stopping to the place where the shop was sold.
Both shops were sold through a brokerage firm.
When Zhou Yaren saw Tang Qiyue's aura, he knew that he would be able to sell a shop today, and he was extremely enthusiastic towards Tang Qiyue.
Although the two shops are one big and one small, they actually look similar, except that the yard at the back is a little bigger. Moreover, the two shops originally sold different things, so the layout and renovation inside are naturally different.
Overall, Tang Qiuyue was very satisfied with both shops.
"Just tell me how much these two shops cost."
Lin San looked at Tang Qiyue in surprise. Qiyue wanted to buy both? !
Even though Zhou Yaren had sold many shops, he was still surprised by Tang Qiyue's words and said hurriedly, "To be honest, you two, you have seen the location of this shop. No matter what it is used for, it must be doing business."
"So, if you want one of my two shops, I'll give you 1,200 taels. If you want both, I'll only charge you 2,000 taels."
This price is definitely not expensive for Tang Qiuyue considering the location, it’s just that she is short of money!
Lin San's eyes widened in shock. Two thousand taels? He had never even seen five hundred taels! He swallowed silently and said nothing.
Tang Qiyue was silent for a long time, "I'll think about it."
She had to go back and check the space to see how much silver she had and estimate the difference between her and two thousand taels.
Zhou Yaren was not angry either. He sent Tang Qiyue and the other two out of the shop in a gentle manner. "You can come to me whenever you need me. However, the two shops I own are in short supply. You have to make a decision quickly."
Tang Qiyue watched Zhou Yaren lock the two shops and leave before turning around and walking towards the Wu'an Marquis Mansion.
"July, do you really want both shops?" Lin San couldn't help but speak.
"Of course." Tang Qiyue kept walking. "One shop is too small for the things I want to sell. It will be perfect if we connect the two shops."
She already had a simple plan for the two shops in her mind.
Lin San didn't say anything else. He just knew that he could eat meat by following Tang Qiyue. Even if he couldn't eat meat, he could still drink soup!
After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, Tang Qiyue first went to play with Zhao Bao for a while, then rushed into the bedroom and slipped into the space.
He first planted pepper seeds on the land in the space. Tang Qiyue caught a glimpse of wild ginseng that was more than 500 years old. He immediately dug it up and stored it. If he continued to plant it, the wild ginseng would probably become a spirit.
Then she went to look through the box where she kept her small change and silver bills. There weren't many silver bills in it, as she had already spent a lot of money buying the mountain, the land, and paying the workers' wages.
Tang Qiyue counted carefully and found only 500 taels in it, which was far less than the 2,000 taels in the two shops.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. She immediately closed the box, slipped out of the space and went to open the door.
Xie Changjin frowned, "What's wrong? Why do you look so bad?"
Tang Qiyue shook her head and said, "I'm fine." She welcomed the person in without closing the door.
Tang Qiyue's face looked really bad because she was just shocked by how little savings she had left.
Xie Changjin's dark eyes stared deeply into her face, "You can tell me anything."
Tang Qiyue met his sincere eyes, and after a moment of trance, she stammered, "Then can you lend me two thousand taels?"
"Ok?"
"I'm kidding." She didn't think of looking for Xie Changjin. What she was thinking about was going to China Resources tomorrow to collect the money for the next batch, the next batch, or the next batch, in advance.
Who knew that Xie Changjin suddenly grabbed her hand and asked, "Only two thousand taels?"
Tang Qiyue was stunned. "Do you think two thousand taels is too little?"
"Well, it's too little." Xie Changjin took out a piece of fine wood from his arms and put it in her hand, saying, "Take this wood to any bank and you can get as much silver as you need."
Tang Qiyue was stunned!
"Money is not a big deal to me. Your business is the most important thing."
The sudden attack of love words caught Tang Qiyue off guard. She wanted to return the wooden sign, but someone was not happy about it.
Tang Qiyue could only accept it, "Just think of it as a loan from you. I'll pay you back when I make money."
“No need to return it.”
"You have to pay it back!"
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you." Xie Changjin agreed with her helplessly.
Tang Qiyue blinked proudly, threw herself into someone's arms, and smiled so hard that her teeth were showing.
She has found a walking ATM!
