Chapter 890: Chapter 890: You Want to Rent a Storefront
Song Zhanming naturally didn’t recognize Xinyan, but after Chen Manjuan introduced them, he greeted Xinyan: "Hello."
Xinyan looked at him and directly asked: "You want to rent a shop?"
Song Zhanming nodded: "Yes."
Xinyan remembered what the neighbors said before: "What will you use the shop for?"
Song Zhanming didn’t think there was anything he couldn’t say, after all, when the store opened, everyone would see: "General goods."
Xinyan nodded slightly: This area is said to be street-facing, but it’s surrounded by residential areas, so business should be good.
However, thinking about her own distribution store, it seemed that some products would inevitably overlap with the distribution store, so Xinyan fell silent for a moment.
She started to calculate in her mind.
Song Zhanming might have thought of something and quickly said: "Don’t worry, I’ve already spoken to Manjuan. I’m renting the shop at the far edge on the other side, so it won’t impact the distribution store much."
Xinyan thought for a moment and agreed with him, then nodded: "You two can discuss the details."
Xinyan came over to check the progress of turning the courtyard into shops. This time, many people were working, and they had already opened the doors. Soon, they’ll seal some of the shop doors in the courtyard and it should be completed in a few days.
Looking around, the progress was fine, and knowing that many people had already come to inquire about the shops, she felt relieved.
Just as she was about to leave, she saw Ling Tianze walking quickly towards her.
Judging by his expression, there was surely good news.
Ling Tianze walked briskly and said: "I have news on what you asked me to investigate."
He handed over the materials he had: "These are the materials I obtained. You can take them back and review them, and my friend can help as well."
Xinyan was elated: "That’s great, but we all have exams coming up. Let’s arrange a meeting after the exams."
Ling Tianze smiled and agreed: "Okay, I’ll tell him to clear his schedule."
Xinyan put away the materials and looked at Ling Tianze: "In the coming days, hand over your tasks to others and focus on your main responsibilities."
Ling Tianze nodded: "Alright, I’ll listen to you."
He understood how important this exam was as he was aiming to get into Qinghua University’s economics department and didn’t want any regrets.
After exchanging a few words, Xinyan left first as He Jinxuan was waiting for her in the small courtyard.
As soon as she entered the alley, she heard the quarrel coming from the neighboring courtyard.
Well, with such a commotion, continued tutoring was impossible.
Once she entered the courtyard, she said to He Jinxuan, who was reading at the stone table: "Pack up, let’s head to Master’s place early."
He Jinxuan had no objections. He stood up, packed his belongings into a bag, and turned to Xinyan: "Do you need to bring anything else?"
Xinyan remembered the honey she promised Mistress, then she quickly ran into the house.
Once the door was properly closed, she found a discreet area and entered the space directly.
When she came out again, she had a bottle of top-quality honey from the space in her hand.
As she opened the door, a shout came from next door: "Ge Suhua hasn’t married Song Zhanming yet; how can she be part of the Song Family? No matter how bad I am, at least I don’t bring burdens. And what about her? She’s got two children to bring along. You better think carefully."
The Song Family elders were momentarily indecisive, realizing that what the ex-daughter-in-law said wasn’t without reason. Ge Suhua was good, but she would come with two children.
Their third son still had no biological children of his own, so marrying Ge Suhua meant the money he earns might have to be spent on raising someone else’s children.
The elders were hesitant for a moment, but they also didn’t want to take back Li Gaiyun as their ex-daughter-in-law, as she was too problematic.
Li Gaiyun saw their hesitation and was pleased. She said: "Besides, if Zhanming really opens a shop, with my eloquence, I could certainly help him.
But Ge Suhua is too timid, could she manage?"
Xinyan heard Li Gaiyun’s words and thought: There sure will be lots of drama to watch at the shop in the future.
