A time-travelling peasant girl becomes a wealthy woman

Chapter 198: Gamble with me

Those who should sit down sat down, and those who should leave left. Then both sides looked at each other.

Of course, Huang Mulin and Yang Lijun were looking at each other openly, while the other party could only peek at them.

"Look up when you speak." Yang Lijun glanced at them and said, "Don't be too reserved. There are not so many rules here. Just be polite and follow the etiquette."

"Yes."

Everyone looked up.

The Lady of Qiling County...is so beautiful!

Of course, Yang Lijun also has a rare good look, but now that the mother and daughter are sitting together, Huang Mulin is more outstanding and eye-catching.

They had never seen Huang Mulin before, but only heard that she was a good-looking girl from a farm family who won the favor of Yu Zhenzhou and Yang Lijun and became a hot figure.

Now that they were face to face and even before they communicated, he could already tell that this woman was no ordinary person.

Huang Mulin, who was sitting next to Yang Lijun, was smiling and graceful, giving people the impression of two words: beautiful and dignified. In addition, her eyebrows were full of leisurely and contented, bold and bright, and her emerald skirt made her look even more charming and extraordinary.

The girl is only eleven years old and has not yet grown up, but she is so graceful. How many young talents will come to the Huang family mansion in the future.

Of course, Huang Mulin doesn’t care about these.

She just felt that being so pretentious was too uncomfortable.

If she didn't know that these people would be partners with great benefits in the future, she wouldn't value them so much, and she wouldn't want to be looked down upon.

As for the three major families and Mr. Jia, they are all old acquaintances, so there is no need to be too formal with them.

Hey~ Huang Mulin thought to himself that his second brother should pass the imperial examination and come home as soon as possible to take over this annoying reception job.

Yang Lijun knew what Huang Mulin's mentality was at the moment without even looking, and she laughed secretly in her heart.

To prevent herself from laughing out loud, she asked, "Are you all here for the notice posted today?"

"Yes."

"I still don't know your names or where you come from."

Everyone immediately introduced themselves and their livelihoods one by one.

Huang Mulin looked at Lei Xin, Mu Shaolan, Wan Wenyi and Zhao Guanxu a few more times.

After listening to their introduction, Yang Lijun said, "Just ask whatever you want to ask."

She likes a straightforward temperament.

Everyone was silent, not knowing whether they should ask first.

Wan Wenyi thought of Wan Wenfang's suggestion and took the initiative to speak: "Madam Zhenguogong, I want to know why the shop at the south entrance of the town was built?"

Linhai Town has such a small population. Even if it expands outward, it will be difficult to attract more people to settle here due to its geographical location and commercial development.

If a huge amount of financial resources are spent on expansion but no one is interested, such behavior is tantamount to digging one's own grave. Of course, the same is true for investors.

Yang Lijun looked at Huang Mulin, indicating that it was her turn to explain.

Everyone looked at her.

"That's a good question." Huang Mulin looked at Wan Wenyi and smiled, "But I don't plan to announce it within three days."

Not only Wan Wenyi, but everyone else was stunned.

"I think everyone knows that the Tang, Song, and Ge families have been here, including the local gentry Jia Yuanwai." She continued, "They have already made the order without knowing the price of the shop."

"I don't want to brag, but I think this is a first-of-its-kind move."

"Life is a huge gamble. If someone is willing to play with me, I will tell them everything I have."

Huang Mulin did not intend to make this plan public at this time. She still liked to do things in a way that made a big splash.

Everything is ready, all she needs is an east wind and she will be able to take off.

Besides, she was worried that such a shocking thing would be ruined.

When there is a conflict of interest, no kindness will work, and she doesn't want to be the executioner.

"What the county lord means is..." Zhao Guanxu asked hesitantly, "Only the person who has booked the shop is qualified to know the secrets?"

"That's right." Huang Mulin nodded: "I won't make it public until the entire plan is completed."

"What if we don't buy the shop now?"

"That's fine. Once all the shops outside the south town entrance are completed and you can see the benefits you can gain, we can cooperate again."

"However, in the future, the shop will only be rented out, not sold."

Huang Mulin’s words made everyone fall into deep thought.

Only renting and not selling, this shows how much confidence one has in the shop's future to make such a decision.

It can be said that Huang Mulin intends to invest millions of silver here. If it fails, it will become useless stone. If it succeeds, the silver will hatch more money.

Two complete extremes.

This also makes these people more curious about what Huang Mulin plans to do to make these shops so popular in the future. Is it necessary?

"County Lord." At this time, Lei Xin spoke up, "Can we know the size and layout of the shop?"

"No problem." Huang Mulin turned to An Ran behind him and said, "An Ran, go get the blueprints for the shop."

"Yes."

Soon Anran moved out the drawings with several places marked.

Everyone looked at the movable wooden board with curiosity and surprise, and then were attracted by the contents of the drawings on the board.

The three families of Tang, Song, Ge and Mr. Jia ignored the bathroom drawn in the drawings because they had paid Lao Tian to renovate the bathroom a few years earlier. They only looked at the approximate size of the front and back yards and some less common details.

Except for Wan Wenyi and Mu Ziqi who already knew and used it, everyone else was a little confused.

"An Ran, let me tell you about the structure of the shop."

"Yes."

Then, An Ran described the entire shop inside and out amid the merchants who had unknowingly gathered around her and their exclamations.

Especially toilets, sewage pipes, etc., which are currently only found in some people's homes in Linhai Town.

"Wonderful! Wonderful!"

Lei Xin rubbed his hands. These strange ideas were truly eye-opening.

"If you are interested, you may want to take a look at the bathroom in my house for guests." Huang Mulin's eyes were filled with a hint of satisfaction: "Seeing it with your own eyes will give you more confidence."

"I go!"

Lei Xin signed up immediately.

"I am coming too!"

"Me too!"

A group of people rushed to express their willingness, and those who didn't know would think they were going to collect money.

"An Ran, show the guests."

"Yes."

Soon, the sound of a group of men shouting could be faintly heard from outside. Huang Mulin and Yang Lijun looked at each other and smiled. They liked the way they were making a fuss.

After a while, they came back.

"County Lord, I want to buy a shop!"

Mu Shaolan and Wan Wenyi spoke at the same time.

They had long known about the peculiarities of the Huang family from their own sisters. As long as the Huang family came up with a way to make money, it would be profitable.

From fermented bean curd to bread to chili sauce, which one is not a unique craft?

The three families of Tang, Song and Ge made a lot of money, which made them very envious!
