When Song Laosan arrived at the Jin residence, he knocked loudly on the door. An old man opened the door and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"I am Song Laosan from Guanya. Master Jin entrusted us to sell the house before, and now there is a buyer who is sincere about buying it. I would like to meet Master Jin."

The old man let him in, and after he entered the inner courtyard, he said, "Sir, the brokers are looking for you."

When Song Laosan met Master Jin, he explained his purpose. He spoke very kindly, weighing the pros and cons, and said, "Master Jin, your house is not cheap. There are many houses for sale in the city. If you can't sell it in a while, the house will depreciate over time, and the price will drop."

You'll have to lower the price to sell it later anyway, and you'll have to worry about it all the time. Why not take it easy now? If you think the price is right, you can sell it quickly and get the money. Why not? It saves you time, effort, and worry. I'll take care of everything for you. You just need to cooperate with the transfer of ownership, and you don't have to worry about anything else.

The client could actually choose other properties, but this one is the one I strongly recommend. This client has great potential, so I hope you won't miss this opportunity.

Old Man Song talked until his lips were sore, and finally Old Master Jin relented. "Old Man Song, the reason I agreed to your request is because my family is waiting to go to the capital and needs to get the cash as soon as possible."

"Understood. Don't worry, we'll complete the transfer tomorrow, and you'll receive the cash."

Song Laosan left happily, eager to tell Liu Siyue the good news. He turned the carriage around and headed straight for Penglai Inn.

When he arrived at the inn and told the waiter, the innkeeper told him to wait a moment and go to inform Liu Siyue immediately.

Liu Siyue heard a knock on the door, and it was the innkeeper's voice again. She opened the door and saw the innkeeper standing there. "Sir, there's a broker downstairs looking for you. He has something to tell you."

Looking down from upstairs, she saw Song Laosan pacing back and forth in the lobby. If the profit was big enough, he could go up there quickly.

She took out another 5 coins and gave them to the waiter, saying, "Thank you for your hard work, sir. Please ask him to wait a moment. I'll be there shortly."

The shop assistant was delighted. He shook the money in his hand, then hurried downstairs, telling Song Laosan to wait a moment, as he would be there soon.

Song Laosan looked upstairs and saw a familiar figure slowly descending the stairs. "Madam Liu, the house has been agreed upon. The transfer can be completed tomorrow at the price you mentioned. However, you need to prepare the money, as the owner wants to pay in cash."

Liu Siyue chuckled, "Song Yaren is indeed very efficient. Don't worry about the money; there won't be any problems."

"Regarding the residency registration you mentioned, if it's convenient, we can handle it together tomorrow, so you don't have to make multiple trips."

"Okay, let's do it together tomorrow."

"Then Madam Liu, please rest. I won't disturb you any longer. Please wait for me at the inn tomorrow, and I will come to pick you up to go to the county government office together."

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Song Ya."

Song Yaren couldn't believe that he had just closed such a big deal. It's true that you can't judge a book by its cover. These two unremarkable women were actually so rich. Could they be some impoverished lady or young lady? This served as a wake-up call for him. He should never judge people by their appearance again. Maybe he would meet a benefactor and achieve success.

Liu Siyue went back, closed the door, went into her space to sleep, fed her baby, and fell asleep while holding her sweet and soft baby. When she woke up, she looked at her watch and saw that it was past 6 o'clock. She quickly went out to check on Zhou Xiangxing, who must still be waiting for her to eat.

She knocked on Zhou Xiangxing's door, and it opened immediately. "April, you're awake."

"Okay, let's go eat."

The two found a noodle stall nearby and each had a bowl of wonton noodles and a poached egg, which was how they had their dinner.

On the way back, Liu Siyue told her about the house purchase, "Xiangxing, I'll buy the house in East Alley tomorrow, and I can register your household there. Prepare the divorce papers, and you'll have to come with me tomorrow."

"good.

In April, I wanted to change my name, completely forget the past, and make Zhou Xiangxing disappear from this world. I don't know if that's possible.

"I don't know either. Maybe we should ask Song Yaren tomorrow."

The next day, around 9 AM, two carriages were parked in front of Penglai Inn. One belonged to Master Jin, and the other to Broker Song. Broker Song went inside just like the day before, and the waiter quickly went upstairs to call for help, earning another 5 coins.

Liu Siyue and Zhou Xiangxing came downstairs. Song Yaren handed the household registration consent form to Liu Siyue and asked her to sign and put her fingerprints on it along with the person registering the household.

Liu Siyue read it through and found it quite detailed and thoughtful. After she and Zhou Xiangxing signed and pressed their fingerprints, Song Yaren put away the documents and led them to the county government office.

Just as she was getting into the carriage, Liu Siyue asked about the name change. Song Yaren said he didn't know either, but that she could ask the registrar when they arrived at the yamen.

The yamen runners at the county government office entrance took the man inside without any trouble. It was the same registrar. Song, the broker, explained his purpose, and the registrar looked at the man who wanted to process the house deed and felt that he was somewhat familiar.

The registrar first processed the transfer of the house deed, and then began to process the household registration. Song the broker explained the situation of the person registering for household registration: "In principle, one must have a house to register for household registration. Since the owner of the house agrees and pays five taels of silver, I will process it for you. If you want to change the name, it will be more troublesome and will require 50 taels. You can discuss it and decide. Once you have decided, it can be processed immediately."

Liu Siyue immediately approved the decision: "Change it!"

She took out 55 taels and placed them on the table. The registrar picked up the divorce papers and began looking for the household register of Bainiwan. When he flipped to the top, he realized that Liu Siyue and Zhou Xiangxing were actually the same family's daughters-in-law, and they had both divorced. No wonder he felt that the woman was somewhat familiar. It turned out that she had registered her household and bought land a few days ago, and today she bought a house. She was quite wealthy.

"She's so rich, how could her in-laws let her get a divorce? Are they out of their minds? I just can't understand it."

She stamped the household registration agreement with her official seal, then looked at the two of them and asked, "What's Zhou Xiangxing's new name?"

Zhou Xiangxing looked bewildered; she didn't know. "April, can you get one for me?"

Liu Siyue thought for a moment, "Chenxin, what do you think?"

"Great, I like it."

"So, do you want to keep the surname Zhou?"

"No, I want to be surnamed Yun."

"My lord, Zhou Xiangxing has changed her name to Yun Chenxin."

The clerk quickly completed her household registration. The two thanked the clerk and hurriedly left the county office. Song Laosan was happy and wanted to invite them to a restaurant for a meal, but Master Jin declined. Liu Siyue handed over 700 taels of silver to Master Jin. Both parties were very satisfied with each other's efficiency, and Master Jin even praised Song Laosan for his good work.

Liu Siyue gave Song Laosan another 50 taels, saying, "Song the broker, this 50 taels is what you deserve."

"Thank you, Madam Liu. From now on, please call me Song Laosan. It sounds more friendly. I won't stand on ceremony then." She smiled as she accepted the silver note and carefully tucked it into her pocket.

Liu Siyue didn't stand on ceremony. Song Laosan had earned a lot of money from her, so it was only right that she treat him.

"Come on, get in the car, I'll take you to get something delicious to eat."

On the carriage, Zhou Xiangxing pressed the household registration book tightly to her chest, tears streaming down her face. The original Zhou Xiangxing was dead; she was now Yun Chenxin.

Knowing how she was feeling, Liu Siyue didn't disturb her and closed her eyes to rest.

Upon arriving at the restaurant, Liu Siyue casually ordered two dishes. She reasoned that others didn't earn money easily, so enough to eat was fine. "Madam Liu, thank you for patronizing my business. If you ever need anything in the future, just let me know. I'll make sure you don't lose out and that you're satisfied."

"good.

After we finish eating, let's go to the brokerage firm together. I'd like to buy a few servants.

"Alright, the brokerage has some. Some are literate, some know a few tricks, and some have some skills. Just let me know when the time comes, and I'll help you make an eye out."
