Zhou Dong nodded excitedly. “Aye, we’ll definitely work hard.”

After that, Zhou Ying reminded them to be careful of the cold night and to guard the storeroom well. Once that was done, she turned and walked to the central courtyard.

Haitang immediately followed her.

When she reached the main living room, Zhou Ying touched the wall and found it almost dry. The room was not as stuffy anymore.

Haitang saw this and said, “Madam, from the looks of it, you can move in the day after tomorrow.”

“Okay, I’ll check later. If the day after tomorrow is good, we’ll move in the day after tomorrow.

“Oh, right; when the firewood delivery comes, ask them to send more. There has been a change to the floor heating, so the amount of firewood used in winter will greatly increase.”

“I understand, Madam.”

Zhou Ying paused after hearing that. “Halting, we grew up together. We’re not biological sisters, but we’re closer than actual sisters. Please drop the honorifics.”

Haitang smiled and shook her head. “Rules are rules. To be honest, our family is already very grateful that you saved us from the Zhou family.

“We can’t break the rules, or else it would be difficult to manage if you were to recruit more people in the future.”

“It’s up to you, but you don’t have to be so reserved in private.”

“Aye, aye.” Haitang nodded happily.

After Zhou Ying asked them to prepare some curtains, she brought Zhou Dong out and went straight to ask for any empty shop lot available.

Zhou Ying didn’t expect that there would be no such small empty shops in the east or north of the city.

However, there were quite a few in the south of the city.

Unfortunately, most people living on the city’s south side were commoners, so they were relatively poorer.

Thus, she looked at Zhou Dong and waited for his decision.

Zhou Dong hesitated for a moment before finally nodding his head. The shops east and north of the city were both time-honored brands. As a new shop, he might not be able to compete with them. He might as well go to the city’s south to try his luck.

“Is there a shop with a small courtyard over there?” Zhou Ying asked Manager Xiao.

“Yes, a shop in the commoner district has a small courtyard with three main rooms. However, the shop is relatively larger than what you requested.”

“How is the courtyard looking? Has it been repaired after the snow disaster?”

“It’s decent, as they are all green brick houses. However, those who want to sell are all from low-income families and have no money to repair the shop.”

“I see; you have to help me lower the price if that’s the case.”

“That’s always negotiable. Do you want to go over and see the place now?”

“Let’s go,” Zhou Ying said, walking out.

When Manager Xiao saw this, he immediately prepared a carriage and brought them toward the city’s south end.

They heard many shouting voices as soon as they reached the city’s south. It was much more lively than the east or north of the city, and there were also more hints of life.

When they arrived at the commercial street, Manager Xiao parked the carriage and led them inside the shop lot.

At the same time, he pointed at a row of brick houses and said, “This is the place. Do take a look and see if you take a liking to it.”

Zhou Ying glanced around, noticing the entire street was clean and tidy. All the shops here had relatively good business, and the best thing is that the flow of people on the roads was much higher than that of North City.

“Let’s go in and take a look.” Zhou Ying nodded.

If Zhou Dong decided to give up on this place, she would still buy two shops here and do some small business.

Small businesses on such a busy street were no slouch. The income of a busy shop here would be similar to that of opening a grander restaurant elsewhere.

Next, the manager brought them to look at five shops, each about 70 square meters.

The size and specifications were all the same, and there was nothing to differentiate them. The only thing that differed was the condition of the courtyard houses.

Zhou Ying picked two shops, and both were corner-lot shops. She looked at Zhou Dong and asked, “Brother Dong, what do you think? Which one do you want?”

At the same time, she wanted to gauge if he knew how to do business. If he didn’t, she had to teach him quickly..
