Chapter 189 You Want to Open a Store

Gu Fei bowed to the old man, "Old man, I'm sorry, I accidentally stepped on you just now."

The old man snorted and said nothing.

Gu Fei took out a few copper coins from her body, bent down and put them in front of the old man, "Old man, it's cold, you can't sleep here at night, you should find a place to shelter from the wind."

The old man suddenly got angry, "Get lost, where did you come from, young lady? I'm not a beggar, who wants your copper coins!"

Gu Fei looked embarrassed, bent down to pick up the copper coins on the ground, and was about to leave. After thinking for a while, she asked the old man, "Old man, do you know whose house this is? Why is it empty? It's a pity to leave it empty on such a busy street."

She was thinking recently, her mother grows peppers and her father raises clams, what does she do? She can't really eat white rice at home.

Seeing such a good location, she couldn't help but ask a few questions.

The old man stared at her. Seeing that she was wearing a brocade dress, followed by a maid and a servant standing next to her, his eyes suddenly turned, "Why are you asking this, little girl?"

Gu Fei smiled, "Nothing, I just feel it's a pity. Such a good place, no matter what kind of store you open, the business should be good."

The old man suddenly said, "Little girl has good vision."

"From what you said, you want to open a store?"

Gu Fei nodded.

The old man suddenly said, "This house is mine. If you really want to open a store, I will sell it to you."

Gu Fei tilted her head and looked at the old man, "Old man, don't lie to me."

You are dressed in rags and look like a beggar. How can you have such a big house?

The old man snorted coldly, "Who lied to you? If you don't believe me, come in and see!"

The old man stood up, took out a yellow copper key from his body, turned around and opened the door.

Gu Fei was surprised. It seemed that it really belonged to this old man.

There was no light in the house, but fortunately, the street was full of lanterns, which could still illuminate the house. Gu Fei looked around and found that the house was quite large, empty, and covered with dust. It seemed that it had been abandoned for a long time.

The old man pointed to the back and said, "There is a yard behind me, and there is a building in the yard."

Gu Fei estimated that it would cost thousands of taels of silver to buy a storefront in this area. She waved her hand and said, "Old man, I won't go to the back to see it. I don't have enough money to buy this house."

"But can you rent this house?"

The old man shook his head and said, "I don't rent it, I only sell it!"

He glanced at Gu Fei's clothes again and said angrily, "You little girl, you are not honest. If you don't have a little money, how dare you wear a dress that costs ten taels of silver and one foot? "You said you don't have enough money for a dress made of satin, I don't believe you!"

"I think you are just playing a trick on me!"

Gu Fei smiled helplessly, "Old man, it's not true, I really don't have enough money."

"Then how much money do you want to sell this house for?"

The old man held up three fingers, "I don't want much, three thousand taels of silver, I can go to the government office with you to get the house deed tomorrow."

Gu Fei stuck out his tongue, and was hit by the price and wanted to run away, "Old man, then I will go back and see if I can get the money together."

As he spoke, Gu Fei walked out.

The old man stood in the shadows, watching Gu Fei walk out, and murmured, "It's been so long, maybe it's sold."

"It would be great if it could be sold, and I would be relieved. "
