Chapter 103 Cut Hu

Legend has it that the sweaty and bloody horse can travel thousands of miles a day. Although there are some exaggerated elements in this, the good horse travels a hundred miles a day is real. So a few days later, a letter came from Yingnan, and the prince was successfully cleared of the suspicion. In addition, although the prince was criticized by the emperor for privately transferring grain, these are nothing compared to the charges of embezzlement.

Lin Yingxue helped the prince so much this time. The prince originally wanted to bring the gift to the Lin family to thank him in person, but because Lin Yingxue didn't want to be too high-profile, the prince gave up this idea and arranged for the people below to send the gift to the Lin family.

"Wow, Miss, why did the prince suddenly send so many things to the lady?" Dier had never seen so many good things since she was a child, so the boxes of jewelry, silk and satin in the yard were dazzled for a moment. She looked at this and that, and looked at it, looking at it, looking at it, and she couldn't help but make Lin Yingxue feel funny.

"Okay, after seeing enough, put the things in the warehouse." However, Lin Yingxue was indifferent to this, and her face did not show any joy.

"Oh." After hearing Lin Yingxue's words, Di'er was about to instruct someone to carry the box into the warehouse, but at this moment the thing she saw from the corner of her eyes made her involuntarily startled "Huh".

Hearing the sound, Lin Yingxue couldn't help but turn her head, "What's wrong?"

"Miss, there is something inside..." Dier confirmed that she was not dazzled, and immediately pointed at the box and couldn't speak.

Seeing this, Lin Yingxue couldn't help but turn around and walk up to the box where Dier pointed to and took a look. Originally, she just glanced casually, but after she saw what was in the box clearly, a bright smile appeared on her face.

My lady had just seen so many precious jewelry, but she didn't respond. But when she met the box of gold and silver, she smiled so brightly. Has she been misunderstood the lady's taste? In fact, what her lady liked was such a simple and tacky gift?

Lin Yingxue could not know Dier's inner thoughts, but what she really lacked now is cash bank, yes, it is cash bank!

No matter how much gold, silver, jewelry, and precious antiques she had, these were dead objects marked with the Lin family. They were of no use except for decorating her storefront. And she could not take these things outside to exchange silver, otherwise if someone knew about it, she would not have laughed at her.

But she wanted to develop her own power, reward her fellow citizens, and exchanges with others, and spend money in many places, so the prince's thank-you gift today was really a bit thoughtful, and she actually understood her needs so clearly!

Well, she is very satisfied with this thank you!

In a blink of an eye, Lin Yingxue's mood began to become brighter, "Calculate this box of silver and silver notes."

She wants to see how much assets she has now and whether it is enough for her to develop her own power.

Although she didn't know what her lady thought, as long as her lady was happy, Dier felt happy, so she happily went down to count the number.

In the evening, Lin Yingxue carefully considered the cash in her hands. After confirming that the silver in her hands was enough to set up a storefront in the imperial city where every inch of land was valuable, on the second day, she disguised herself and pulled Di'er to the street.

"Miss, what are we doing today?" Her lady pulled herself out early in the morning. She was so happy that she thought her lady was taking her out to play, but it was not until she walked with her lady for a morning and didn't buy a single thing and didn't eat a snack that Dier realized that she was thinking too much.

Seeing Di'er go from excited to depressing, Lin Yingxue couldn't help but feel funny. Looking at the sky, it was time to have lunch, so she pulled Di'er and walked into a noodle restaurant on the side of the road. "Your lady is going to do a big thing recently. Now she needs to save money. Let's have a bowl of beef noodles for lunch."

Di'er has never been a spoiled girl. She has been with Lin Yingxue for eating steamed buns and pickles before. How can she care about these things now?

After she sat down happily, she couldn't help but say in confusion: "Miss, what are you planning to do recently?"

"I--" Lin Yingxue was about to answer, but the waiter in the store happened to walk past her. A flash of inspiration in her mind, and she hurriedly called the servant and asked, "Brother, I came to the city from another place. I want to do some small business in the city. Do you know what rental stores are nearby?"

Compared to her wandering around the city, these people who originally lived nearby may know the situation nearby better than her.

"There are several stores that are renting nearby!" At this moment, there were no customers in the store, so the servant stopped and asked, "Customer, what big store do you want to find?"

Seeing that there was a chance, Lin Yingxue quickly thought about it before answering: "It is better to be a slightly larger one, two-story one. If it is a single floor, it is OK, but the space must be larger."

After Lin Yingxue finished speaking, the servant's eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "Hey, it's a coincidence that there is a two-story store nearby for rent! The owner who rented the store originally opened a restaurant, but the business was not good. He just quit the rent a few days ago. Now, the two-story store is just for rent. Guest, you can go and see if the store is in line with your wishes."

Lin Yingxue was also happy when she heard the waiter say this. After eating the noodles, she carefully looked at the place where the store was, and gave the waiter some more silver and then left with Dier.

As the waiter said, after she arrived at the place she mentioned, there was indeed a two-story storefront for rent there. Although the decoration looked a little old and a little old, she had to find someone to renovate after taking over, so this was not a big problem. In addition, the location of the store was also good. Although it was not in a particularly prosperous area, it was not bad either.

Lin Yingxue felt more and more satisfied when she looked at it. After taking Dier into the store, there happened to be a middle-aged man in the store, and it looked like she was the owner of the store.

"Excuse me, is this store still for rent?" Because she deliberately dressed up as a man when she went out, Lin Yingxue also deliberately lowered her voice to make it sound heavy.

The middle-aged man turned his head to look at Lin Yingxue when he heard the voice. Seeing that Lin Yingxue was dressed and talking well, he guessed that Lin Yingxue might be a young man from a wealthy family, so he immediately smiled, "Yes, yes, this young man wants to rent a storefront? That young man happened to come. Now my storefront is renting for cheap!"

Seeing the middle-aged man in front of him look like he saw her and saw treasure, Lin Yingxue felt confident, but said calmly: "How do you calculate the rent for this store by the boss?"

"Young Master is indeed a cheerful person. Then I won't be that fake with you. The store costs 2,000 taels of silver a year. How about it? Is the price fair?" The middle-aged man said, giving himself a thumbs up, showing a proud look.

Lin Yingxue couldn't help but sneer, "The boss is probably joking. Even if I go to the main street of the Imperial City, the rent is not much more expensive than this. What's more, your store is a bit old, so old, and after I take over, I have to pay for it to renovate it out of my own pocket... The rent of 2,000 taels of silver this year is probably a bit expensive."

The middle-aged man originally saw that Lin Yingxue looked young and should be very easy to fool, but when he heard Lin Yingxue speak, he knew that he was probably underestimating the person in front of him.

"Then according to the young master's opinion, how much is the rent for this year?" the middle-aged man asked with a thoughtful look.

"One thousand taels."

"Young Master, you're too ruthless in hiding the price. How could you negotiate business like this?"

"One thousand two."

"One thousand eight!"

...

The two of them bargained for a long time, and finally set the price at 1,500 taels.

"Young master's eloquence, I feel ashamed of myself!" The middle-aged man no longer had any smile on his face.

Lin Yingxue glanced at the middle-aged man with a reluctant face, smiled and signaled Dier to take 100 taels of silver notes to the man, "This is a deposit. I didn't bring so many silver notes on my body when I go out today. I will sign a receipt tomorrow and make up for the money, okay?"

"Young master has the final say!" The middle-aged man kept the 100 taels of silver and said unhappyly.

After solving this matter, Lin Yingxue returned to the Lin family in a happy mood. What she didn't know was that as soon as she left, someone fell in love with the store again.

"Your Highness, the people below come to report that Miss Lin's fifth family and the people below us liked the same shop." The person who bowed and spoke was a handsome young man, but like his master, the man looked cold and looked like he was not very easy to meet.

Murong Xun was originally lowering his head and writing something. When he heard this, he couldn't help but raise his head, "Is that so? It's really a big move."

First, he removed Zhao Yun from his hand, and then turned the tide to help the prince rehabilitate him. As for the action now, he seemed to be planning to develop his own power...

A young woman who is only twelve or thirteen years old has such courage and wisdom. If she is allowed to grow up in the future, it would be great? Murong Xun frowned and shook his hands inadvertently. A pair of words that were originally neatly tidy, a drop of ink dots the size of soybeans fell in the middle.

"Stay well and don't let her walk too smoothly." After Murong Xun said, he crumpled the rice paper on the table into a ball and threw it on the ground with expressionless face, and picked up another piece of paper and wrote it as if no one was around.

"Yes." After standing aside, the man took the order and responded, he bowed and retreated.

So, the next day when Lin Yingxue brought enough silver notes and was about to pay the money, the boss who had already agreed to do a good job suddenly stopped renting it.

No, to be precise, it shouldn't be rented to her.

"Boss, you have to be honest in life. You agreed to rent it to my lady yesterday, why don't you rent it again today? You are just untrustworthy and go back on your word!" Dier pointed at the boss's nose angrily and spit out a few idioms she knew.

The middle-aged man didn't say anything at first because of his fault, but later he was scolded by Di'er and retorted angrily: "This store is mine. I rent it if I want to. If I don't want to rent it, I won't rent it if I don't want to. Do you two, hurry up and take the money for me to leave, don't delay my business in a while!"

While the middle-aged man said, he threw a silver note of 100 taels outside the door and asked Dier to pick it up.

Lin Yingxue frowned at the shameless middle-aged man and was about to say something, but then the sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the store.
