Chapter 149 Visiting the Shops in Shunyang Town
After returning to Lijia Village, Li Yan looked at the scenery outside and breathed the fresh air along the way.
Li Youran felt that Li Yan in front of him was a little funny, but she also felt inexplicably sad for him.
When they arrived at the door of their home, Li Youran held Zhiyan's hand and got off the carriage.
Li Yan followed closely behind, got off the carriage and looked around.
Li Youran walked in front and turned to look at Li Yan, "Li Yan, come in." Li Youran called him by his name.
"Ah? Okay, I'll be right here." Li Yan retracted his gaze and quickly followed Li Youran into the house.
Li Youran asked Zhiyan to take Li Yan to arrange a room for them to live in, and took out two sets of clothes from the space and sent them over.
After lunch, Li Youran took a light nap until the evening, when he saw Ye and Li's father returning from the fields.
"Dad, Mom, I found a beggar on the road today. I felt sorry for him and took him in. He had no name, so I named him Li Yan." Li Youran briefly recounted how he met Li Yan.
"Ran'er is so loving. It's okay. Our family can afford to support him." Ye lowered her head and touched Li Youran's head with a smile.
Father Li looked at the mother and daughter and did not interrupt, but he agreed in his heart.
After dinner, Li Youran went to bed early again, and only got up slowly when the sun rose in the sky.
"Miss, you woke up so early today. You didn't even need me to call you." Zhiyan sighed. She saw that Li Youran had already gotten up and got out of bed. It was rare to see her get up so early.
"Aren't we going to the next town today? We must get up early." Li Youran answered casually.
"Shunyang Town is very close to Donglin Country, Miss, let's go to another town!"
Zhiyan was worried that something might happen to the young lady. Shunyang Town is next to Songjiang County, which is not far from the border.
"Are we so close to the border?" Li Youran couldn't help but sigh in his heart as he looked at the scene in front of him.
She had always thought that the border was at least three or four days away from her, but she had never expected that she would live in a small town so close to the border.
"Shunyang Town is next to Songjiang County, and the border is not far away." Zhiyan explained, but her heart was full of worry. She knew that border areas often experienced wars and conflicts, and it was a very dangerous place for ordinary people.
"Then how long does it take to get to the border from here?" Li Youran secretly calculated in his heart, if one day he wanted to go to the border to take a look, how long would it take?
"Miss, you don't want to go to the border, do you? Absolutely not! That's where soldiers march and fight. We ordinary people must stay away from it." After hearing Li Youran's question, Zhiyan turned pale with fright and hurriedly stopped her.
Although Li Youran is a little goddess, swords and knives are merciless on the battlefield and no one can guarantee her safety.
What's more, border areas have always been chaotic, and it would be troublesome if we encountered any danger.
"Oh, don't worry, I'm just asking, I won't go." Li Youran found it a little funny when he saw Zhiyan's nervous look.
She knew that Zhiyan was too worried about her safety.
"Okay, if we ride at full speed, it will take about a whole day to reach the border." Zhiyan calculated the time required for the journey in her mind and told Li Youran.
Li Youran nodded and silently kept this information in mind.
I don’t know whether my grandparents arrived in Changqing County safely.
After finishing the cleaning, Li Youran left early and asked a servant to tell Li Yan that he would help his father with the housework.
Now some people are working in the fields with Li's father and Ye. There is strength in numbers. Li's father bought a few acres of land and planted the seeds given by his daughter. It seems that the yield is also high.
While on the road, Li Youran was always thinking about how to open a store in the next county.
She pondered secretly in her heart, hoping to find a suitable way to achieve this goal.
After a while of driving, they finally arrived at Shunyang Town. Although Shunyang Town is not large, it has four main streets in the east, south, west and north.
Compared with Biquan Town, the population here is slightly sparse, but people seem quite wealthy.
Judging from the way they dress, it is obviously much better than Biquan Town.
Looking at the clothes people were wearing on the street, Li Youran couldn't help but feel confused.
She turned to Zhiyan and asked, "Zhiyan, do you know why people here dress better than those in Biquan Town?"
Zhiyan shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't know the reason.
At this time, Zhu Yao at the side said: "Miss, I know something. Originally, the county government of Jian'an County was planned to be established in Shunyang Town, but because Shunyang Town has a small foundation, the town is not big, and the population is relatively small, it was not chosen here in the end."
Hearing this, Li Youran nodded and motioned Zhu Yao to continue.
Zhu Yao went on to explain: "However, because of this, many dignitaries like this kind of place with few people and fresh air, and think it is the most suitable place to live. Therefore, they moved here to settle down."
"So that's it." Li Youran suddenly realized and understood the reason.
She remembered her purpose again, so she ordered Han Yan, "Go and see the location your men have found!" After that, she asked Han Yan to drive the carriage to the location of the person in charge in Shunyang Town.
"By the way, Zhuyao, tell the twenty people to open four shops in their respective towns, two Pinyouge and two Tanhewan. Remember, they are on different streets." Li Youran turned to look at Zhuyao and gave the order.
Zhu Yao nodded, indicating that she understood. Then, Li Youran took out a small cloth bag from his arms and opened it, revealing that it was full of banknotes.
She handed some of the silver bills to Zhu Yao and asked her to handle the relevant matters.
Zhu Yao took the banknote, put it carefully in her arms, then turned and left.
She first bought a horse, then rode away to various towns to give notice.
After a while, Han Yan finally drove the carriage to the destination.
This is a shop located on the east street. It is a two-story building with two storefronts.
Currently, the shop is under renovation.
At this time, a man who was responsible for opening a shop here came forward and introduced himself: "My surname is Qu, my name is Zheng, and I'm glad to meet the little goddess." After that, he bowed deeply to Li Youran.
Li Youran quickly stood on tiptoe, reached out to help Qu Zheng up, and said with a smile: "No need to be so polite, please stand up quickly! I want to ask if you feel any pressure to open a store now?"
Qu Zheng quickly replied: "In reply to the little goddess, we have no pressure. We are honored to be able to work for the little goddess, and we are willing to serve you."
In fact, they did not have any pressure because all the silver was provided by the little goddess, and they only needed to help run the shop and they could also get wages.
"That's good. If there's anything, just send a pigeon to Pinyou Pavilion in Biquan Town." Li Youran felt relieved.
