The ancestor of the apocalypse is so cool after being reborn!

Chapter 174 Don't worry about it
Chang Chong said what was in his heart to his mother, but she was actually very moved.

She is just an ordinary housewife, she has been adhering to the diligence and thrift in housekeeping all her life, and she dare not spend any money in her hands.

This time, he managed to earn some money with his son, and smelled a business opportunity, and spent all the money and courage he had saved all his life in this shop.

Now that the store has just been delivered, the price has doubled when she went out. As long as she makes a move, it is equivalent to earning back the money that she could only save for several lifetimes.

Do you think she is too tempting for a housewife who can only circle the stove?
Chang Chongniang was entangled in the enthusiastic gaze of several people, she gritted her teeth and pulled her son slightly.

She whispered: "My son, the temptation they gave is quite strong, I am so excited for my mother!"

However, after a short pause, she changed her tone: "However, there is no such thing as a pie in the sky, and even if there is, it is not our turn. They have raised the price so high, and they can't wait to buy it. What does it mean?"

Chang Chong worked as a sophomore in a teahouse all year round, welcoming and sending off, he is considered a man who has seen the world in this era.

He is not stupid, on the contrary, he is a bit smart. Hearing what his mother said, his head that had been dazed by the money instantly woke up.

"That's right, these people are all worthless. What does it mean that they are so eager to buy our shop today? It means that the value of our shop is far less than what it is today!"

Chang Chongniang patted him on the shoulder in relief, "My good son, we are used to being poor, and I am very happy for my mother. You are not dazzled by the benefits in front of you. Although our shop is not big this time, we can do something by ourselves. Small business is still good.”

Chang Chong looked at his mother in surprise: "Mother wants to do business?"

"Hey, sister, have you discussed it?"

Chang Chongniang shook her head with a smile, and answered firmly: "Not for sale!"

When the people around him heard this, they made a 'cut' sound, and dispersed like when they came.

Seeing them surround the people who came out from behind again, Chang Chong and his mother let out a sigh of relief like shopkeeper Li.

It's just that it's a bit early to let out a sigh of relief, and within a breath, the two of them were surrounded by several people again.

When Chang Chong saw it, he shouted loudly: "We don't sell it! Don't surround us!"

One of the dark-skinned men introduced himself with a smile: "Brother, don't worry, don't be afraid, we don't have the money to buy your shop."

Chang Chong was taken aback when he heard the words: "Why do you stop us if you don't want to buy a shop?"

The others smiled embarrassedly when they heard this.

The reaction of this group of people was both shocking and amazed.

"Brother, my surname is Huang. I used to hang out on the south side of the city. Everyone called me Huang Carpenter. You should know what I do by hearing my name. I am a carpenter." Huang Carpenter grinned and pointed to a few companions beside him. : "They are partners who work with me. There are carpenters and masons. We stopped you just to ask you, does your shop need renovation?"

Chang Chong suddenly realized, and was extremely shocked. Are people in Fucheng so sensitive now?
"You guys." Chang Chong gave them a thumbs up, "You guys are too good at taking jobs, how about it?"

Carpenter Huang and his partner looked at him nervously, waiting for his decision.

Chang Chong glanced at his old lady, thought for a while, and said, "My name is Chang Chong, if you guys are willing to wait, just wait for me for two days.

Our shop really wants to open a store by itself. As for what kind of store to open, we haven't decided yet. You give me two days to think about it, and I will go to you to see how to make a decision. Do you think this arrangement is okay? "

Seeing that Chang Chong did not refuse, Carpenter Huang was overjoyed: "Opening a shop should be carefully considered. Brother Chang is a steady man. We will wait at home for good news from Brother Chang!"

"It's easy to say!" Chang rushed to them and clasped his fists.

The matter was decided quickly, Chang Chong said goodbye and took his mother away.

Zhu Da looked at the front Yaren and others, and asked, "Old Huang, are we still taking jobs today?"

Carpenter Huang pursed his lower lip and glanced at the exit of the sales office, then shook his head: "We have already received a few orders today, shopkeeper Li asked us to start work in his shop tomorrow, everyone will go back and get ready, tomorrow Come and assemble."

"Is there really no work to do today?" Zhu Da felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, taking this opportunity to get more work, they would be able to make more money years ago.

Carpenter Huang said with a smile: "Don't take it, the employer will automatically deliver it to your door in the future."

"How do you say that?" Zhu Dayi didn't react for a while.

The others also looked at Carpenter Huang in doubt.

Carpenter Huang laughed loudly when he saw the puzzled looks of his brothers: "I think years ago, most of the people who wanted to hire workers in the prefectural city were concentrated in the north of the city. Come forward to inquire about our situation, and if it is appropriate, I believe they are more willing to hire craftsmen like us who can see work."

After all, in the shop, it was clear at a glance whether they were doing a good job or not.

"Ha ha."

Others also responded.

"Old Huang, you still have a quick brain, we are not as good as you! We work in the shop in the north of the city, which is like a living sign. As long as we do a good job, we are really not afraid that no business will come to our door!"

Carpenter Huang smiled: "Okay, you guys go back and prepare first. I'll go to shopkeeper Li's snack shop and discuss with him how to run the shop?"

Zhu Da nodded: "Okay, you go and discuss it with him, let's go back and prepare the tools for tomorrow's work."

He was a bricklayer, but they actually participated in the construction of houses and shops in the north of the city.

Now that the project in this area has been completed, a few of their acquaintances got together again and came here to take jobs, just wanting to earn another sum of money before the year before the New Year.

The second floor of the sales office.

Xia Jing looked at the grand occasion of the square downstairs, and said to Zeng Yan beside her, "Did the steward see it? Your lord made a lot of money from the shop that your lord booked with me in advance, not to mention the location, but the current price of the shop has doubled." Several times. The haughty attitude when he made an appointment with me, I still want to slap him when I think about it!"

Zeng Yan pursed his lips tightly and stood in front of the French window, not daring to say a word, he, a slave, did not dare to interfere with the matter of the prince and concubine's enemies.

However, in this real estate, aside from other things, the windows are really big.Compared with the buildings he has seen before, the windows here are the widest, which also makes the interior particularly bright.

He believes that the residents living in this area will get used to the houses here in the future, and they will definitely not get used to the previous houses, because the interior of the previous houses was too dark, and it would be even worse if it was rainy.

He stomped again.

Gee!
The floor on the second floor is really solid, and the feeling of walking on it is the same as that on the first floor, unlike the previous wooden floor, which is slightly inferior in craftsmanship, and there will be creaking sounds when walking on it.

Seeing his movements, Xia Jing chuckled, "Are you afraid that the floor will not be solid?"

Old Zeng Yan blushed, "The little one is so ignorant that the princess laughed at her. Now that the little one can see such a strong house, it is thanks to the improvement of the steel smelting technique and the cement produced by the princess."

Xia Jing smiled and sat back at her desk.

Zeng Yan went up to pour her a cup of jasmine tea, smelled the fragrance in the air, and praised sincerely: "In today's world, apart from Lingnan, I am afraid that there is no place where people can live and work in peace and contentment. But Lingnan has the current situation, and the princess deserves all the credit." Wei, you have brought vitality to Lingnan."

This time Xia Jing laughed loudly, "Hahaha, you are not afraid that your master will listen to the words you praise me. If he knows that you attribute these credits to me, I wonder if he will be furious? Get rid of you." stewardship?"

"What I'm talking about is the truth. I believe the prince also sees the efforts the princess has made for Lingnan."

Zeng Yan said with a serious face: "Political matters are small and dare not make irresponsible remarks. Let's start with the north of the city. The wasteland in the north of the city, which was originally stinky and flooded, has become the most orderly urban area in the prefecture after the transformation of the princess. At the same time It also solved the livelihood problems of many people.”

First of all, construction is carried out. The brick factories and cement factories outside the city have solved the employment problem of many surplus labor due to their vigorous production.

Not to mention the construction site in the north of the city, but craftsmen with a little labor or a little craftsmanship in Fanfucheng and the surrounding areas have come here.

With income, the common people must be willing to spend, and all walks of life in the city and surrounding towns have also tasted the sweetness.

When the people are willing to consume, the market will be energized.

Xia Jing raised her eyebrows, she admitted that the urban construction in the north of the city was what she was most satisfied with.

"boom blah blah"

There was a knock on the door of the room, Hongmei pushed the door and came in, followed by the staff of the sales office.

"Princess, this is the title deed and key of the prince's shop." The staff put a stack of title deeds and a bunch of keys on the desk.

Xia Jing nodded and said to him, "After completing the formalities for the land deed and keys of the Xia family, send someone to deliver them."

"Yes, my concubine, my subordinates will make arrangements now." The staff backed out.

Xia Jing pushed the land deed and key on the case table in front of Zeng Yan, "Okay, the procedures are completed, you can take them back quickly, lest your lords wait in a hurry."

King Qian, who was also in the new government office in the north of the city, couldn't help but sneezed twice.

"My lord, are you alright? Did you catch a cold?" Anu asked concerned.

"I'm fine, maybe someone is talking about me." King Qian rubbed his nose and asked, "Is Zeng Yan back yet?"

Anu: "Not yet, it should be soon."

"Why is it so troublesome to sell a few shops? It's pre-sale and opening. After the house is built, there is a topping ceremony, and when the house is fully completed, there is a handover ceremony. You have to go through this procedure and that procedure."

After speaking, King Qian turned his head to look at Anu: "Tell me, is the Xia family so busy that they are too busy?"

Anu lowered his head, it was really difficult for him as a servant to answer these words.

Fortunately, King Qian didn't think about his answer, and said to himself: "She has no money to build the city, so she can talk to this king, or she can cooperate with this king. Treat this king as an outsider, and get rid of it without making a sound." With a down payment of as much as the monthly payment, all the shops and houses in the north of the city were sold to the common people."

Speaking of this, King Qian still feels pain in his heart, "The people take out a small amount of money and wait a few months for the rent to be collected. The rent collected is paid for the monthly payment, and there is still the rest to subsidize the family. You said it is so cost-effective Don’t the common people fight and rob when buying and selling?”

This is tantamount to giving away shops and houses to the people in the whole city, but if he is not given to him, he has to pay the full amount of money for a few shops.

Otherwise, the shop has no place for him!
In Xia Jing's words: "I don't have to worry about selling the shop in the north of the city! Do you want to buy it or not!"

Are you saying it's irritating?
"My lord, Zeng Yan is back!"

Amid King Qian's nagging, Anu looked forward to it, and finally brought Zeng Yanpan back.

The moment he saw Zeng Yan, Anu couldn't help but wiped off his sweat, "Housekeeper Yan, how are things going?"

Zeng Yan walked up to King Qian, greeted him, took out the land deed and key, and said with a smile: "Everything is done, this is the shop that the princess specially left for you, my lord, I checked it out, and it is in the north of the city. This area has a good location and large shops, and it will definitely be a prosperous shop that is hard to buy even if you have money in the future!"

King Qian took the land deed and counted ten shops.

He raised his eyebrows, "It's a surprise, I thought the princess would be stingy and just set up five or six shops to get rid of me."

King Qian checked the land deed carefully. He didn't know the exact location, but the area written on the land deed was not small.

Zeng Yan: "My lord, these ten shops have already increased in value by two or three times!"

"Oh, how do you say that?" King Qian looked at him suspiciously.

Zeng Yan didn't hide anything, he just told what he saw and heard at the sales office today.

King Qian stared at the land deed in his hand in disbelief: "These ten shops have doubled or tripled now?"

Zeng Yan laughed and said, "Just a lot!"

hiss!
King Qian took a deep breath: "Did the princess belong to Paixiu in her previous life? Why is she so good at fishing for money? How much money do you think she made in the north of the city this time?"

Zeng Yan estimated in his heart, and said: "The princess built the north of the city, so she should have earned back the money to build the entire city."

King Qian looked at Zeng Yan: "According to what you said, the princess earned at least one city?"

"." Zeng Yan rolled his eyes, not knowing how to answer this question.

King Qian didn't seem to want to stop there, and asked, "You said, how about this king rebuilding the whole mansion for the princess?"

Anu put on a dead fish face, "."

After hearing what he said, Zeng Yan said with a mournful face: "My lord, if you do this, the first thing the little one thinks of the princess is to cut the little one into pieces!"

It's not good to use any analogy to make your mouth cheap, you have to use Fucheng as an example.

"Pfft, you're so cowardly, I'm just kidding!" King Qian said angrily.

Zeng Yan patted his chest exaggeratedly, and said happily: "Fortunately, you are joking, my lord. If you really think so, the princess will really chop up the little one."

"Does the princess know that you are ruining her reputation outside?" King Qian looked at him quietly.

Zeng Yan choked, and shut up obediently.

King Qian handed over the title deed to Zeng Yan, "Do you think the shop left by the princess is better than this king's?"

Hearing this, Zeng Yan almost knelt down to him, "My lord, don't worry about the shop in Wang Hao's hands, she won't agree."

King Qian's thoughts were exposed by the servant, and he snorted in displeasure, "Who said that this king misses her shop, this king is just curious! Curious whether she will rent it out or keep it for her own use!"
