After her husband died, her parents came to force her to remarry

Chapter 153 Buying a Shop

Jiang Xiaohe asked, "I wonder what business Boss Sun's shop did before?"

Sun Ming replied, "I'm a wine shop owner. Is my wife interested?"

A tavern, this kind of shop is just right.

Boss Hu next to him introduced: "Boss Sun's wine shop, although it only has one floor, is very large. There is also a small courtyard in the backyard where people can live. The best thing is that this shop is right in the middle of the East Market. The location is very good."

Sun Ming nodded: "Boss Hu is right."

"Then why does Boss Sun want to sell this shop now?"

Sun Ming sighed, "My family has encountered some misfortunes, and I am afraid that we will have to move to another place, so I want to sell this shop. If you are interested, you can go and see the shop now. As for the price, as long as you pay quickly, we can negotiate."

This will help Jiang Xiaohe to bargain, and she can go and see it if she says so!

The three of them arrived at the shop. Jiang Xiaohe looked around and found that the shop was indeed good. The shop was about 100 square meters. The good thing was that there was a small courtyard behind the shop with four or five rooms where people could live. There was also a small well in the courtyard, which would be very convenient if she were to run a food business.

Although he was satisfied, he still frowned slightly: "This shop is a bit small."

Sun Ming was afraid that Jiang Xiaohe would not want it, so he quickly said, "This is not small at all. It can hold almost ten tables. And if you think it is too small, you can add a layer in the middle."

It can also be covered.

Jiang Xiaohe sighed: "Boss Sun, I admit that your shop is in a good location, but my food business requires a large space, and we are afraid that..."

"If you really want it, I can give you ten taels less for the price!"

Jiang Xiaohe was secretly delighted and raised her hand: "Twenty taels less! If it's eighty taels, I'll pay right away."

Sun Ming was a little embarrassed.

"If Boss Sun doesn't want to sell it, I'll take another look. I'll always find a suitable one."

Finally, Sun Ming gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, sell it!"

After saying that, he sighed again, looking at the shop with some reluctance: "This shop has been opened by my family since I was a child, and it has been running till now. If it weren't for... oh, I really can't bear to leave it."

Boss Hu was the happiest person as the intermediary.

The two of them immediately went to the government office to get the paperwork done. Jiang Xiaohe paid the money, and Sun Ming took the money and said, "The shop belongs to my wife. I hope you will take good care of it."

"Boss Sun, don't worry!"

After the people left, Jiang Xiaohe was very happy holding the shop deed and keys.

Boss Hu congratulated her: "After so long, you finally bought it."

"Thanks to Boss Hu."

After saying this, he bowed slightly towards him and walked out of the dental clinic.

She went to look at the shop again, thinking about what Sun Ming had just said about adding a roof. She couldn't figure it out, so she thought, forget it, she would wait until she got back and bring Zhang Quan to take a look next time. After all, Zhang Quan knew more about this than she did.

After closing the shop, he ran into Meng Hetang as soon as he came out.

Meng Hetang pointed at her, then pointed at the shop: "Hey, why did you come out from here?"

Jiang Xiaohe smiled and said, "I just bought a shop and I plan to use it for business."

"Did you buy it?" Meng Hetang was a little unconvinced, but Jiang Xiaohe nodded.

"Madam, can you tell me what kind of business this is?"

She thought about it and realized that she couldn't hide it, so she said bluntly, "It's the food."

Meng Hetang heard this and thought, food business? Wouldn’t that mean they would be competing with him for business in the future?

"Madam, are you going to open a restaurant too?"

Jiang Xiaohe didn't say anything.

Meng Hetang felt somewhat uncomfortable, but he still smiled and said, "Then we will be competitors from now on."

"Boss Meng, what are you talking about? Your restaurant only serves the wealthy and powerful. My small shop only sells snacks. We are not competitors."

After she said that, Meng Hetang felt a little relieved, and then he said, "Actually, if you want to do food business, you can cooperate with me, and you don't have to buy a shop like this. If you make a profit, it's fine, but if you lose, it won't make up for the loss."

Jiang Xiaohe smiled slightly: "Boss Meng, what you said is true. My shop hasn't opened yet."

Meng Hetang bowed and said, "Then I wish my wife a prosperous business."

After saying that, he turned around and left. I guess he was angry.

Jiang Xiaohe sighed and headed towards the town entrance.

Meng Hetang was so angry that he ran to find Chang Wei.

As soon as he got home, he slammed the table and said, "I'm so mad, I'm so mad."

Chang Wei wiped his knife and asked him without even looking up: "What's wrong? You look so anxious."

The butler Chang handed over the tea: "Master Meng, have some tea."

Meng Hetang drank the tea in one gulp: "It's still that Jiang Xiaohe."

Manager Chang immediately went to see his master.

Chang Wei then looked at Meng Hetang: "What's wrong with her?"

"I met her in town today. She was coming out of a shop."

"What's so good about this?" Chang Wei didn't understand.

"But do you know why she came out of the shop?"

It would be strange if he knew.

"Just say it if you want to."

"She actually bought a shop in town and started a food business! Isn't this clearly stealing my business?"

Chang Wei frowned slightly: "Anyone can do this business. Others do their own things, and you do yours. Why not?"

Meng Hetang glared at him, then flicked his sleeves and sat back on the stool.

Of course he was angry! Where did Jiang Xiaohe, a village woman, get the money to buy a shop? It was because she was doing business with him that he gave it to her!

The money he gave her was now used by her to buy a shop and food, and she was going against him. How could he not be angry?

"You don't think it was you who gave them the money to buy the shop, do you?" Chang Wei put the knife away.

Meng Hetang's thoughts were exposed and his expression looked a little unnatural.

"I gave it to her. If I hadn't done business with her, she would have been able to make so much money and use it to build a house and buy a shop."

Putting the knife aside, Chang Wei looked at him and said, "Look, what you said is so unreasonable!"

"Why doesn't it make sense!"

"If she doesn't want to do business with you, she can do business with others. Don't be so ungrateful. If she doesn't do business with you, she may even make more money."

Meng Hetang didn't like what he heard and stood up: "Chang Wei, you are blinded by greed, right? We have been friends for more than ten years, and you speak for her but not for me? Is that village girl so good?"

Chang Wei also stood up: "Why are you so angry? Are you angry because I said it right?"

Meng Hetang became even angrier and threw his sleeves: "My mother is looking for comfort from you, not to be mad at you."

"Alright, alright!" Chang Wei walked up to him and patted his shoulder. "She's a woman who makes a living by running a catering business. You've been running a restaurant for so many years, and there's more than one restaurant in this town. Why are you afraid of her? Can she, who just started out, be better than you who have been running it for so many years?"

Meng Hetang pursed his lips: "That sounds like something."

In fact, he didn't understand, but he was worried. What Jiang Xiaohe made was rare? Which one was not valuable? If she opened a shop and made rare things, would he just watch?
