Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart Chapter 84: Acquiring a Storefront (Part 1)

After feeding Duan Yunfei porridge and instructing Aunt Yang to tidy up the west wing, Shen Qinglan left the house.

Though the rain was still falling, it was only a light drizzle now, not as heavy as before. The street-side restaurants and shops had all reopened for business.

The terrain of Jinxi Town was such that the center was higher than the surroundings, so the water drained away quickly.

Originally, she thought about asking Old Tang for help, but considering that she had already troubled them too much, relying on others all the ti would make her seem quite useless.

"Miss, not working today?"

Shen Qinglan strolled along and soon found herself in front of Boss Tong’s bun shop.

Boss Tong was not there today, only his wife.

She gave a small grin to the boss’s wife and said, "Tang the Shopkeeper gave a day off."

"I see. The kitchen is so busy. It’s not easy, is it? As a young girl, you must be very busy, right?"

The boss’s wife lifted the stear lid, releasing a cloud of steam that soon dissipated.

Shen Qinglan did not explain further, simply said, "It’s manageable!"

The boss’s wife said, "It’s still raining outside, why don’t you co in and rest for a while? The rain will probably stop soon."

Shen Qinglan did not go inside but instead asked the boss’s wife, "Do you know where there might be any shops available for purchase in the vicinity? The size doesn’t matter."

She had just received three thousand silver from Duan Yunfei, and with the additional nine hundred silver she already had, buying a large shop shouldn’t be a problem.

Money shouldn’t be spent wastefully; when there’s less, you want to save, and when there’s more, you want to spend it lavishly.

Thinking of ways to make money work for her would be better; she couldn’t be content living off the ten silver she earned each month forever, she wasn’t soone who had no ambition.

"Yes!" The boss’s wife pointed nearby and said, "Walk over there, there’s a place that used to be a restaurant, but so people got sick from eating there, reported it to the authorities, and it was shut down after just a few days. A poor soul."

"Thank you, boss’s wife!" Shen Qinglan said, "Give twenty buns, please!"

The boss’s wife smiled upon hearing this and said, "Alright!"

After paying, Shen Qinglan took the buns and headed in the direction pointed out by the boss’s wife.

When she arrived, she saw the restaurant was tightly shut, with red paper and black characters pasted on it, probably indicating it was for transfer.

"Little miss, do you need sothing?"

A man about thirty years old approached, holding an umbrella, and looked at her questioningly.

Upon hearing his voice, Shen Qinglan turned around and said to the man, "I’m looking for the owner of this restaurant."

The restaurant was sizeable, two stories, estimated around 200 square ters, in a good location, with a lot of foot traffic. She quite liked it.

"I am he, but... for what reason does the little miss seek ?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qinglan raised her eyebrows in surprise, rely responding, "I want to take over this restaurant, to find a place to discuss?"

Surely they can’t discuss business standing in the rain?

"You?" The man frowned, "Are you sure you’re not joking, miss?"

Shen Qinglan appeared to be only thirteen or fourteen years old, moreover a young girl, can her words be trusted?

"Do I look like I’m joking?"

Shen Qinglan seriously looked at the man, her face showing no signs of joking.

The man hesitated for a mont, finally said, "Well, we’d better talk inside."

Without further ado, the man took out a key, unlocked, and pushed the door open, walking inside.

Shen Qinglan followed behind him and entered.

Inside, the tables and chairs were arranged neatly, and the tabletops were very clean, indicating that soone frequently tidied up.
