When Manbao was in a good mood, he would not mind spending money. She called out to Zhou Wulang and said she would take them to the Zhuangyuan Building to have a drink and have dinner.

Zhou Wulang shook his head and said, "Forget it, we will go to see the shop in the afternoon, so you can go by yourself."

Manbao then remembered to ask, "Have you found the shop?"

Zhou Lizhong raised his head to look at her resentfully, "My sister-in-law, haven't we told you before?"

Manbao asked in confusion, "Have you said it?"

Everyone:...

Zhou Lijun waved his hand and said, "Forget it, my sister-in-law was in a bad mood a few days ago, so she definitely didn't listen to our words."

Man Bao felt a little embarrassed, "I may not have paid much attention, you can say it again."

Zhou Lizhong bowed his head and ignored her.

Zhou Wulang, who was standing beside him, said: "We sold all the booklets, and the money we earned was not paid, so we put them directly in the public center. We have seen several shops inside and outside the shops. The shops in the inner city are not cheap, especially for ours. Even if we don't have spacious ones, we have to buy them for 5,000 taels, and rent them is not cheap..."

Zhou Wulang took out a small notebook from his arms and said, "We have seen more than a dozen shops in the past few days."

Manbao opened his mouth wide, "There are so many shops to sell?"

"Of course, this is just a nearby one. If you go to a further place or another market, then more."

Manbao was curious, "Why, there are very few empty shops in Luojiang County and Yizhou City."

When she was able to buy a suitable shop in Luojiang County, it was because Mr. Shi was too defeated, otherwise she would not have known how long it would take to buy a good shop.

Zhou Liulang also felt that there were a lot of shops in Beijing, and it was a bit too expensive. "It's a pity that we were new to us, so it's hard to find out the details, otherwise the prices of these shops in the past would be good."

Bai Shan asked, “Are the shops you are looking for easy business?”

"It's okay," Zhou Liulang said: "I haven't seen it anymore. I'm sure that people passing by are OK. Someone will stop eating before going to these places to inquire about the shops to be sold."

He sighed again: "It's too expensive!"

He felt that they had brought enough money, but the result was still not enough.

When Manbao heard the price, he ignored the shops in the inner city and asked directly, "How much does the shops in the outer city cost?"

Zhou Wulang didn't have to read the notebook and said directly: "The most expensive one is 3,600 taels, and the cheapest one is 800 taels."

"Huh, why are you so much worse?"

Zhou Liulang said: "Fifth brother, I don't want the one with 800 taels."

He gestured to Manbao, "The room of 800 taels is so big. It is cooked with food. There are at most three small tables in the curtain. If there are more people coming, I'm afraid that no one can greet you."

Manbao was curious, "Then what did this shop do before?"

"They sell clothes and cloth. They are simple. They just need to put a shelf on the side. The best cloth sold is silk. Guests who enter the door can choose when they stand. The location is still spacious, but we can't cook."

Zhou Wulang frowned and thought for a while, but he picked up his pen and crossed the shop off in the notebook, "Okay, I won't read this, what about the others?"

In the future, the shop will have Chef Zhou Liulang, so I mainly ask for his opinions.

"The others are OK."

Manbao asked: "Brother Six, which one do you like the most?"

"Of course, I like the most expensive one. It's 3,600 taels. It's in the market close to the inner city, not far from us. After leaving our gate, I turned right and walked thirty feet away." Zhou Liulang said: "The place is also spacious. In addition to the two floors up and down, there is also a yard. I've seen it. In addition to the kitchen, there are three rooms, one can store ingredients and debris, and the other two can live in it."

Zhou Wulang excluded it from the beginning, and the reason why he left it in the notebook was because Zhou Liulang liked it too much and insisted.

In order to convince him, Zhou Wulang had already made many reasons. Seeing that he was still obsessed with him, he glanced at him and said, "There is not enough money."

"So I want to rent it."

Zhou Liulang patted his thigh and said, "Didn't we ask, rent it for 65 taels per month."

Zhou Wulang asked, "Do you know how much is 65 taels? Now a bucket of valley costs ten cents, 65 taels can buy at least 6500 dou, that is 65,000 liters!"

Zhou Lijun nodded repeatedly, indicating that Uncle Wu was not wrong.

"You will have to spend 65,000 liters of millet a month. You think you are Mr. Bai!"

Bai Dalang and Bai Erlang raised their heads from the teacup.

Zhou Wulang immediately explained: "I mean Mr. Bai's heroic spirit."

Zhou Liulang said: "I think that shop must not be worth so much money. They might think we are foreigners, so they deceive us. I have also asked about the price of various shops in Yizhou City. Even if the shops in Beijing are relatively expensive, they are not so much expensive. I mean it is about the same size."

"But I think it's not expensive," said Man Bao: "The two-story building and a backyard are cheaper than the shop as small as 800 taels you mentioned just now?"

Zhou Wulang said: "The shop is in a good location. Don't look at it as small. There are the most people passing by. When we went to see it, some people went to see it, and the two gangs just collided."

That's why he is reluctant to leave it.

Manbao drank the boiled water in his hand and said, "It's okay, I don't have enough money here. I don't have to buy a shop. I'll wait for me to inquire for you."

Bai Shan asked, "Who are you asking for?"

"Shopkeeper Zheng Da, the pharmacy shop," said Man Bao: "He is a native of the capital and has lived for a long time. He must know the market. Maybe he knows many people, so he can help us find it and talk about the price."

Bai Shan frowned and said, "It's not good to owe everyone favors. Why don't you wait for my grandmother to come to Beijing? She seems to be leaving someone in the capital. Let my grandmother help me inquire at that time."

Manbao is eager to make money now, mainly for the sake of the keko, so Manbao doesn't want to wait too long.

She shook her head and said, "It doesn't matter, the favor of the shopkeeper Zheng Da is very good."

After all, she is sitting in a pharmacy. The two of them are engaged in the same industry, and it is easy to repay favors. The industries they are engaged in are different. Then the favors are not easy to repay, and they have to rack their brains.

Zhou Wulang also introduced the situation of other shops to Manbao. Manbao wrote them one by one and decided to go to the pharmacy shop tomorrow to find Shunda Manager Zheng, or ask Xiao Zheng and the doctors and friends in the shop.

Anyway, they are better than they groping for themselves.

Zhou Wulang then collected the book and said, "We will go to another place today. It's nothing to go far. The main reason is that the price and location should be appropriate."

Manbao nodded.
