Chapter 59 - Opening of the Business

"Mm, should I inform Grandpa Zhao in advance?" Mo Xiao Yan said as he ate.

After dinner, let's have your big brother accompany you to Master Zhao's house. Go and ask him first, then we can discuss the price. Lee's was very concerned about the price of the ox-cart.

Mo Xiao Yan suddenly thought of buying carbon.

He then asked, "Big brother, do you know where there are carbon dealers in the town?"

"I know a few, I'll take you to see them." Mo Lin Yu said.

After dinner, Mo Xiao Yan and Mo Lin Yu went to Master Zhao's house.

After negotiating the price, he went home.

When he returned home, the Lee's was waiting. When he saw Mo Xiao Yan, he asked: Xiao Yan, how was it? Have you finished negotiating? How much would it cost to rent it? "

Mo Xiao Yan grinned and said: "Mother, let's go for thirty minutes."

The last time they had accepted forty coins, it was because they were in the middle of the afternoon. Moreover, it was hot to the point of coming back, so they had to run around empty-handed.

Lee's heard that 30 gold coins was too expensive, it was not worth it at all, he did not know if he could earn it yet.

"Xiao Yan, isn't this a bit too expensive? Why didn't they talk a little less? " Lee's was too used to living a poor life, these tens of coins really hurt her heart to spend them like this.

"Mother, Master Zhao is too old, this price is more or less the same. When the time comes, we will earn it back." Mo Xiao Yan was actually a little unsure, and did not know if he could sell it, he had spent a lot of capital.

"Xiao Yan, do you want me to go with you tomorrow and see if I can help?" Mo Xiao Xia said.

"Second Sister, there's no need. You can continue to the Chen family to learn embroidery." Mo Xiao Yan knew that Mo Xiao Xia liked embroidery.

"Big brother, I'll have to trouble you to follow me to the town tomorrow to see where the carbon seller is." Mo Xiao Yan felt a little embarrassed. Mo Lin Yu had to go and work now, and had not gone for a few days already, so he had to accompany her back to town tomorrow. It would be good if he made money, but it would be a bit awkward if he didn't.

"We're all family, it's not like there's no trouble at all. Anyway, I'm not always working there, and sometimes I don't have anything to live for." Mo Lin Yu laughed.

Early the next morning, after the three of them had breakfast, Master Zhao's oxcart had already arrived outside the courtyard.

The few of them hurriedly loaded their belongings onto the ox-cart and rushed towards the town.

Once they reached town and paid the driver, the three of them took the goods and quickly walked down the street. Who knew where they were setting up their stalls?

After walking through a few places, there were people who had taken up their positions. It was just that the place was too remote and there were no passersby.

After walking for so long with things in hand, Mo Xiao Yan was so tired that he could barely walk anymore. However, even though Lee's and Mo Lin Yu had each taken a lot of things, they were still unable to help Mo Xiao Yan carry them.

When she walked to the stall that sold buns, the woman called out to Mo Xiao Yan.

The woman asked, "This young lady, just what are you planning to do with so many things?"

After hearing the voice, Mo Xiao Yan stopped in his tracks. He saw that last time he was eating buns here, he even asked the woman where he could set up a stall.

"Aunt, didn't I say last time that I would set up a stall? I just came to the town today, and I haven't found a place to set up a stall." Mo Xiao Yan gasped for breath and said.

Looking at Mo Xiao Yan's expression, he seemed to be really tired and took a lot of things.

"Hurry up and come sit down. We'll talk after we sit down." The woman said kindly.

At this time, Mo Xiao Yan was so tired that he did not want to walk anymore.

The woman went to pour another bowl of water. It was still early, so there weren't many people on the street.

"Little girl, what do you think about my empty spot?" The woman pointed and said.

Mo Xiao Yan looked around, the place seemed to be pretty good too.

"Girl, can we set up a stall in the empty space beside you?" The Lee's asked anxiously.

"Hehe, of course it's fine. Before, there was a stall selling wontons, but now, I've rented a shop and moved away for only a few days. So, there's still no one around." The woman said with a smile.

Hearing the woman say that she could do it, Lee's was naturally very happy and immediately thanked her. "Big sister, thank you."

The side of the store was quite spacious and was enough for them to set up a stall. Being next to the one selling buns was pretty good as well. At least, the person selling buns was easy to get along with. Mo Xiao Yan was most afraid of meeting people who were unreasonable and would quarrel over small matters.

The few of them took out their things and placed them on the table.

Mo Xiao Yan said: "Mother, I will go with Big Brother to buy some carbon. You should take a look here first, we will be back very soon."

"Yes, quickly return." Lee's still didn't know what to do.

When everything was ready, Mo Xiao Yan took out the skewered pork and chicken and placed them on top of the stew.

One of the scholar-like men said, "Little girl, how much are you roasting this for? Does it smell good? "

Seeing that someone finally asked, Mo Xiao Yan and Lee's were both quite excited.

Mo Xiao Yan said in a firm voice, "A roasted chicken leg costs twelve cents per piece, and a piece of roasted meat costs seven coins per piece."

"The price is a bit expensive, but it does smell quite good. I'll buy a roasted chicken leg." The scholarly man said.

"Alright, please wait a moment. It's still not cooked yet." Mo Xiao Yan said happily.

The man didn't say anything as he watched Mo Xiao Yan roast the chicken leg while waiting.

After a while, Mo Xiao Yan gave the man the chicken leg.

The man was very straightforward, he took out 12 coins from his money bag and gave it to Mo Xiao Yan, then took the chicken leg and left.

Mo Xiao Yan looked at the chicken leg in the man's hand, and suddenly thought that he should buy some oiled paper bags to wrap these things up, it would be more convenient to pick them up, he had not thought of this before.

Lee's saw that they had already sold a chicken leg and earned 12 coins. He was laughing so hard that his mouth couldn't close, thinking that this girl was really promising.

Actually, the price that Mo Xiao Yan was selling could be said to be half the money earned. Seeing that someone was buying Mo Xiao Yan, he finally had the confidence to do so.

After that, there were more people on the streets, some of them even came to the stall to watch Mo Xiao Yan's barbecue.

At this time, a little child pulled his mother's hand and pointed at the skewers in Mo Xiao Yan's hands with a finger, and said: "Mother, I want to eat that?"

Looks like he also dotes on his son. Walking over, he asked, "How much is this?"

"One chicken drumstick for twelve words, and a barbecue skewer for seven." Mo Xiao Yan said with a smile.
