Chapter 937: Unique Skills (Second Update, Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket)
Lao Jin turned around and asked his wife to bring Xia Chujian a fist-sized meat bun, saying: "This is a bun made of domestic black pork. Try it and see if you like it?"
Xia Chujian took a bite of the so-called meat bun made of domestic black pork.
To be honest, after experiencing the noodle soup of Xiao Mo's family, Xia Chujian felt that the meat bun made of black pork was indeed delicious.
Of course, it was not as good as the wild rhinoceros pork in the exotic forest of Guiyuan Star.
But for Xia Chujian, who had not tasted food for several days, this meat bun was really delicious.
She ate it very carefully, chewing it slowly, and it took her ten minutes to finish the small meat bun.
The restaurant owner and his wife smiled and praised, "This girl really knows what she's talking about!"
"Look! She knows this is the best food in our restaurant!"
Lao Mo said enviously, "Give me one! Let me try it!"
The restaurant owner said, "You can buy one, but you can't give one away. My meat buns cost one Iron Family Coin each!"
Lao Mo's eyes widened, "So expensive?! Are you robbing me?"
The restaurant owner laughed and scolded, "How can you call this robbing me?! You're a butcher, why don't you sell domestic black pork? Don't you want to sell it?!"
This time it was Lao Mo's turn to scold, "Domestic black pork is too expensive! The purchase price is going up in the sky! I can't afford it!"
The meat in his butcher shop has to be bought back and then sold.
Obviously, the purchase price of domestic black pork is beyond Lao Mo's ability to bear.
Xia Chujian was curious.
Obviously, Lao Mo praised his own butcher shop, which was either the first or the second on the whole street.
With such a high ranking, he couldn't even afford domestic black pork?
The quality of the pork sold on this street is not high...
Xia Chujian thought to himself, and finished his meal with Lao Mo calmly.
Then he followed Lao Mo to the grocery street and bought a small whiteboard, and brought his own ink pen and a small eraser.
Xia Chujian immediately picked up the small whiteboard and wrote on it.
[Xia Chujian]: Hello, Uncle Mo, my last name is Hua, and my name is Xiaoxin. My parents are both dead, and I have no family.
Xia Chujian plans to use a pseudonym.
I couldn't think of any other name for a while, and happened to remember the "Hua Yixin" I had seen in the game, and I suddenly had an idea and used it as my own name.
It's not good to use "Hua Yixin" completely, Hua Xiaoxin is much better.
Lao Mo nodded with emotion, thinking that he finally knew the girl's name.
He almost called this girl "benefactor" like his daughter and son-in-law...
Lao Mo said: "Miss Hua, what are your plans for the future?"
Xia Chujian erased the previous line of words with a small eraser and continued to write.
[Xia Chujian]: I want to go home, but I'm lost and can't go home for the time being.
[Xia Chujian]: Uncle Mo, can I settle down in Wangcheng temporarily?
Lao Mo said: "Of course! You helped me collect money today, it's great, much faster than me!"
"Just stay here with Lao Mo, help me set up the stall, and I'll pay you."
Xia Chujian shook his head and continued writing.
[Xia Chujian]: Uncle Mo, thank you for your kindness, but I want to be self-reliant.
[Xia Chujian]: I can cook a little bit, you say, can I rent a small shop here and open a restaurant?
Lao Mo was very surprised: "You can cook?"
"But to open a restaurant, it's not enough to just know how to cook, you have to have your own unique skills and characteristics!"
"Otherwise, the restaurant can't be opened..."
[Xia Chujian]: What are their unique skills in that restaurant just now?
Lao Mo said, "You mean Lao Jin? His special skill is making meat buns."
"He used to make meat buns with grass pork, which was delicious. Now he uses domestic black pork, which must be even more delicious!"
"With this special skill, he can survive in the catering street of Wangcheng."
[Xia Chujian]: I also have some special skills. Let's put it this way, Uncle Mo, can you give me some advice? If I want to rent a small shop in the catering street, where can I find a broker?
Lao Mo thought for a while and said, "It's not impossible to try renting a small shop first."
"Anyway, it won't cost much to rent a shop."
"Your medium-sized silver coins can support you for several years."
"Let me take you to see a broker I know and see if she has any extra shops to rent."
Lao Mo is a man of action.
He immediately took Xia Chujian to a small alley on the east side of the West District of Wangcheng.
Lao Mo said, "This is mainly the management department of the West District, and the shop broker also has a shop here."
Xia Chujian followed Lao Mo into an exquisite small courtyard.
A middle-aged woman dressed smartly was sitting at a stone table in the middle of the courtyard, drinking tea.
Seeing Lao Mo coming in, she turned around and smiled, "It's not easy. What wind brought Lao Mo here!"
Lao Mo smiled and said, "Sister Cao, what are you busy with?"
"This is a good friend of my daughter. She wants to rent a small shop on the restaurant street in Wangcheng to sell some food and support herself."
"Can you help me see if there is a suitable place?"
Sister Cao looked up and down at Xia Chujian and saw a small whiteboard hanging diagonally on her body.
Lao Mo hurriedly said, "Her surname is Hua. She can't speak, but she can listen and write... The little girl's parents are both dead, and it's not easy for her to beg for food on her own."
Sister Cao immediately sympathized with her and stood up and said, "It's really not easy. Lao Mo, you and Miss Hua sit down first. I'll go in and get the shop brochure and help her pick a good place."
Then asked, "How much capital does she have? What's her budget? How big a shop does she plan to rent?"
Lao Mo looked at Xia Chujian.
Xia Chujian picked up the small whiteboard and wrote on it.
[Xia Chujian]: The smallest shop is fine, with a small stall and a place for me to sleep in the back.
[Xia Chujian]: I don't have much money, but... I still want a safer place.
Sister Cao looked at her tall and thin figure and nodded: "No problem. I'll go and take a look."
Lao Mo followed Sister Cao into the house and whispered in her ear: "This girl is my little Mo's savior. If there is anything wrong with the price, I can help her pay."
Sister Cao snorted and said: "Okay, I know. But I really have a small shop here, which is quite suitable for her requirements."
"The place is not big, very safe, and the rent is not expensive. The only thing is that I don't know if she dares to rent it."
Sister Cao opened the shop brochure and showed Lao Mo the size and location of the shop.
Lao Mo looked over and saw that the shop was only 1.5 meters wide and 3 meters deep. With two walls standing there, the practical area was only 1.2 meters wide.
It was just enough for one person to solicit business there.
People who eat can't dine in, they can only buy and go.
The things that can be made are very limited.
Look at the location again...
Lao Mo frowned: "It's actually next to those Wangcheng lackeys..."
Sister Cao smiled and said: "Yes, Wangcheng Legion Command Center."
"Absolutely safe, no one dares to go there to cause trouble!"
"But almost no one goes there to buy things."
"Otherwise, why do you think such a good house, just a little small, has no one renting it?"
"No one dares to buy it. This location may be confiscated at any minute."
"Do you think Miss Hua dares to rent this place?"
Lao Mo touched his chin and frowned and said: "Let her see it and explain all the good and bad things clearly. Let her make her own decision."
Lao Mo knew Xia Chujian's ability. Except for not being able to speak, he was no worse than many heroes he knew in other aspects!
He and Sister Cao came out with the store brochure.
Sister Cao introduced several larger shops to Xia Chujian first, saying: "These locations are good and safe, but the places are a bit big."
"I wonder what kind of food Miss Hua plans to make?"
"If you can cook well, these places can also be rented. But you are alone, you may not be able to handle it, how about calling Xiao Mo over to help you?"
Sister Cao asked tentatively.
Xia Chujian remained calm and shook her head to refuse.
She wrote on the small whiteboard.
[Xia Chujian]: It is indeed too big. I don’t know if what I make will sell well, so I’d better not use such a big place for now.
[Xia Chujian]: Do you have a smaller place?
Sister Cao then introduced the place she had just mentioned to Lao Mo.
Sister Cao said: "If you are not satisfied with those, why don’t you take a look at this place?"
"This shop is very small, so small that only one person can walk around inside."
"It is definitely impossible to dine in, and because of the special geographical location, it is also impossible to place tables outside."
"Are you satisfied with it?"
Xia Chujian saw a simple shop appearance drawing.
It was indeed a small storefront, sandwiched between two tall houses.
But the height was OK, and there was a second floor for living.
Xia Chujian chose it at first sight.
This store was in line with her expectations.
Because she wanted to stay here inconspicuously.
Doing a little bit of small business to support herself, using this identity as a cover, she could move around in the royal city privately.
Xia Chujian looked at it silently for a while and wrote on the small whiteboard.
[Xia Chujian]: How much is the rent for this store?
She looked very cautious.
Sister Cao said: "The location of this store is actually quite good, especially safe, but there is one bad thing, it is next to the Royal City Legion Command Center."
"Everyone is afraid of that place and rarely comes here to buy things."
"So the rent is not expensive, only five iron coins a month, if you pay it off for a year at a time, it only takes ten months, and two months are free."
Xia Chujian took out the medium-sized silver coin.
Sister Cao was shocked when she saw it: "Miss Hua, you actually have a medium-sized silver coin?! Where did you get it?!"
She took the medium-sized silver coin from Xia Chujian, and like Lao Mo before, she squeezed it, blew on it, and then put it to her ear to listen to the sound.
Lao Mo told her what happened in the morning.
Sister Cao also said: "This medium-sized silver coin is real. I have been doing business here for 20 years, but this is the first time I have seen a real medium-sized silver coin!"
