Hot Farmer's Wife: Buying a Husband for the Farm

192 Give Her an Answer Tomorrow

After a day of hard work, the profit from more than 40 bowls of cold cakes would go to the landlord.

However, it was much easier to have an actual shop than to set up a stall.

In addition, she would definitely not only sell cold cakes, especially in winter, when she also had chilis.

It was a rare opportunity, and she had run into it this time.

If she didn’t do it now, the new owner might have a new plan, and they might not want to share the space with her.

The shop owner was a little shocked when he heard that.

She was willing to share his monthly rent, so he would only have to pay 6 taels of silver.

After sharing the space with her, the size of his restaurant would be about the same as the shop next door, but the monthly rent had become 6 taels.

It was 1 tael of silver less than the monthly rent of the shop next to it.

1 tael of silver was not much, but it was not little either.

Thinking from another perspective, his restaurant was indeed not making much money now, but if he could make an extra 4 taels of silver every month, it would be enough to support his family.

“Uncle, what do you think?” Lin Xiaoyue saw that he was tempted.

“Let me think about it.”

His wife said that she had helped him find a job from her uncle, and the pay was not low.

She told him to sublet the restaurant and work there instead.

However, he hadn’t been able to sublet it, so he didn’t ask about it.

Given the current situation, he had to go back and discuss with his wife if they should really sublet it.

“Sure! I’ll come back tomorrow to set up my stall, so you can give me an answer then.”

“If you’re interested, we’ll talk about it in detail. If not, I’ll go and ask elsewhere.” Lin Xiaoyue said with a smile. She was not in a hurry.

“I’ll definitely give you an answer tomorrow.” The shop owner immediately said.

Because of Lin Xiaoyue’s attitude, he took this seriously.

In fact, he was still reluctant to leave the restaurant. After all, it took him a lot of effort to open it.

As the two were talking, Li Xiao came over. The shop owner became nervous when he saw Li Xiao. After knowing that Li Xiao was Lin Xiaoyue’s husband, he was even more polite to Lin Xiaoyue. No wonder this young lady actually dared to talk business with him. She was not afraid of his schemes at all. This couple was not ordinary. It was getting late. When Li Xiao arrived, Lin Xiaoyue said goodbye to the shop owner. Then, she got on the ox-cart with Li Xiao and went to the grocery store. She bought a water bucket, a large iron pot, a few dozens of bowls, 10 barrels, and 10 small buckets. Passing by the grain store, Lin Xiaoyue bought another 100 catties of polished rice. Then, the two of them headed toward the west of Qingshi Town On the way, Li Xiao did not speak. He listened to Lin Xiaoyue about her plan to rent the shop near Qingyun Academy. “Do you think this will work? I think that Mr. Qin is interested,” Lin Xiaoyue asked Li Xiao, “Ill go with you to talk to him tomorrow. Also, in order to avoid any future trouble, you have to sign the lease with the landlord,” Li Shao said.

Lin Xiaoyue nodded.

“Of course.”

Then, she looked at Li Xiao. “How did your day go? We didn’t have much time today. Did you find anything at the dock?”

“Not yet,” Li Xiao said.

Lin Xiaoyue quickly comforted him, “don’t worry, let’s take it slowly.”

“Yes.”

Li Xiao suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Xiaoyue. Her heart started to beat faster..
