Chapter 47： Not into the trap

Chapter 47 Not falling into the trap

Dou Bigui asked my mother, "How to put it?"

Mrs. Xu was originally immersed in calculations. When she heard what her son said, she was so angry that she slapped him, "You are a bastard, you are fooling around outside all day long. You have to ask me about this kind of thing. It's all in vain."

Dou Bigui spends all his time looking for flowers and willows. Of course, the water in his belly is bad. His bad qualities are all in the open. When it comes to the means of harming others in secret, Mrs. Xu is the best.

Of course Mrs. Xu knew her son's virtues, and she didn't waste any time talking to him. She quickly pulled him into a small room where he was not exposed to light, so that the two of them could plot a plan.

Su Ruojin didn't know that she was being targeted. She searched for a long time near Xiqiao Lane, but she couldn't find one she was satisfied with. Shops in good locations were expensive, and shops in bad locations affected her business.

After watching it for more than ten days, she was so angry that she wanted to buy a piece of land to build it herself. However, the land in Bianjing City was very expensive, so how could a low-income person afford it?

Shu Tong asked: "Now there are only two shops to choose from, one is from Zhang Yaren, and the other is recommended by Wang Yaren. Which one do you want to choose, Second Lady?"

The area around Xiqiao is criss-crossed with alleys, and there are shops at the entrances of many alleys. Each shop is a good location for doing business. I can’t think of a good shop, but the two locations are a little closer to each other.

Because his mother was in poor health, he planned to sell his shop and go back to his hometown to serve her. The shop and house were sold for three hundred taels in succession, just counting the price of the money in Su Ruojin's hands. If she hadn't revealed her wealth, she would even doubt this. People and people are running around trying to take out all the money in her hands.

The other small shop was about the same size, with a front shop and a backyard. The owner’s house was too slovenly. Both the shop and the yard were dirty. When the weather got warmer in late February and early March, flies were already flying everywhere.

Su Ruojin really can't stand it anymore, so that's fine. There are three sons in this family, and all of them are interested in this shop. Whether it's renting or buying, once they get involved, it will be a difficult lawsuit.

Of course Shutong also leaned toward the outsider who was planning to sell the shop and leave, "How about we go find Zhang Yaren and let the Yan family sell the shop and the yard separately?"

The master and servant returned to Zhang Ji Yaxing and said, "I would like to ask the Zhang Ya people to ask the Yan family to talk to them again."

When Zhang Yaren saw them coming, he was very enthusiastic: "Su Xiaoguan, you are all on your third trip. Okay, since you are sincere, then I will go find the old man Yan tonight and we can talk about it. At this time tomorrow , come here again.”

Su Ruojin meant that she wanted to talk to Yan face to face and signaled Shu Tong to express his thoughts.

"How about we go to Yan's house with Zhang Yaren tonight, maybe it can be done."

"This..." Zhang Yaren rolled his eyes, "Then I will ask the boy to ask first. If he refuses, there is nothing I can do."

There is nothing wrong with what she said, but if you look at it from another perspective, she is selling a shop and wants to go home. If someone comes to buy it, she will definitely be willing to meet and talk.

Su Ruojin, as Shutong's servant, pretended not to understand and asked innocently: "Didn't I say that Yan's mother was not in good health and asked him to leave as soon as possible? Why are you still grinding?"

It is normal for the owner to use some tricks in order not to be squeezed on the price. Su Ruojin was just such a scam, but Zhang Yaren's eyes clearly flashed, and Su Ruojin caught it. Is there something fishy here?

 With all the people in the city, there are so many stories that happen every day. Places like the tooth shop are the best places to hide dirt and evil. Su Ruojin suddenly became cautious.

But on the surface, she remained calm and continued to negotiate with Shu. They waited for more than an hour in Yaxing. The boy came back with a happy face and said, "Hui Yaren, Old Man Yan agreed."

Mojiji disagreed just now, why did he agree again just now? Su Ruojin was alert, but she didn't show it on her face, no matter what the dentist said.

Zhangyaren smiled with a smile on his face: "Then let's go over and talk in the evening?"

Shu Tong was about to say, 'No problem, okay', but was pulled back by Su Ruojin. He suddenly realized that the second lady was a young man disguised as a man. It didn't seem to be a good idea to do it so late at night. He quickly shook his head, "I think it's better to do it tomorrow morning." Let’s talk in the teahouse, I’ll pay for the tea.”

Su Ruojin secretly praised Shu Tongshu's response. Zhang Yaren glanced at the young man, his expression immediately changed, and he said gloomily: "Su Xiaoguan, are you kidding me? Just now I said I would go by myself at night, and you insist on following me, now You said it was okay, but you didn't go, so you thought I was full and had nothing to do, so you were in a hurry?"

"Hey!" Shutong was even more unhappy than he was, "There are so many tooth shops on this street, they have to be at your house!" After saying that, he pulled up the little master and flicked his sleeves and walked out of the tooth shop.

In the dental shop, Zhang Yaren and the servant Wuji were cross-eyed. If they had known better, they would not have asked Dou if he had found a good manpower, but would have directly deceived the people first. It was all because Dou had not arranged well and called him. The duck flew.

After walking for a while, Shu Tong asked: "Second Lady, what's wrong?"

Su Ruojin turned around while walking, found an alley, and looked towards Zhang Ji Yaxing from the entrance of the alley, "Uncle Shutong, I'll go back first. You stay here and follow the boy or Zhang Yaren quietly to see what they follow. People connect.”

Shu Tong was surprised: "Second Lady, do you suspect they are cheating us out of money?"

Su Ruojin nodded, "We visited five or six dental shops on this street, and Zhang Ji was the most enthusiastic. He also told the Yan family that they wanted to sell the shop. I didn't think it was anything at first, but we can't talk about anything during the day. You've paid for the tea and they're still not happy, that's wrong."

Shu Tong nodded seriously.

"Be careful." Su Ruojin took advantage of the fact that there were many people on the street at noon and went home cautiously.

On the way home, Su Ruojin, who is small in stature, was really afraid that the traffickers would take her away. Fortunately, it was clear day and she was dressed as a servant, so she did not attract too much attention from people with bad intentions.

Back home, Su Ruojin broke out in a cold sweat. It would be great if she could find a woman who knew how to box and kick.

Yang Siniang asked Su Erniang to play, but she almost failed again. Unexpectedly, she came back and said, "Hey, why are you wearing servant clothes?"

Su Ruojin didn't want to say anything to the little kid. She originally wanted her to go back first, but suddenly she remembered that Mrs. Yang came from Zheng Guogong's palace, and Zheng Guogong's family had descendants serving in the army, so he asked her with a smile, "Does your mother have any disciples under her?" Woman?"

Yang Siniang shook her head in confusion, "I don't know."

"Then help me ask your mother if she has one. If so, how much does it cost to hire one for a long time?"

Six or seven-year-old children love being entrusted with important tasks, and they happily go home to their mother.

Su Ruojin: ...Isn’t it inappropriate to bring it up so rashly?

Forget it, I’ve said it all.

Su Ruojin returned home and changed into servant clothes, washed up and ate first.

In a fireworks alley in the capital, Zhang Jiyaxing's boy stood in front of a fat man, with a grimace on his face, "Guan Dou, those two guys were not fooled."

When Dou Bigui heard this, he put away Sister Fengchen from his arms and said with a stern face: "How can you pay for someone if you haven't led them into the trap?"

“I really feel sorry for Mr. Dou. Our Mr. Zhang also tried his best, but those two guys were too slippery and there was nothing we could do.”

Dou Bigui didn't finish what I asked him to do, and he wasn't in the mood to play anymore, so he hurried home to find his mother.
