Chapter 316: Inspecting the Shop
The schedule was set, departure on the twenty-sixth of July, providing half a month of rest upon reaching the capital.
Whether gathering information or making acquaintances, there was enough time.
"Alright, I'll make sure to deliver them on time.." Wang Chuan replied.
"Hu Shi, bring some red bean double-skin milk and also send some to Ziluo." Ye Muyu softly instructed.
Hu Shi nodded and went into the kitchen.
First, she brought out freshly made double-skin milk for the guests. Then, she went to deliver some to Chu Ziluo.
Upon seeing the fresh delicacy, Wang Chuan knew it was a treat. He expressed his thanks and took a couple of bites, finding it exceptionally delightful, sweet and fragrant, with a milk-like aroma. When he casually asked, he learned that it was made with cow's milk.
"Thanks for your hospitality. When you have time, go to the county office and transfer the deed." Wang Chuan suggested.
"I'm available anytime." Ye Muyu responded.
"What about today? The shop is already packed up but the house hasn't been dealt with yet. It might take an extra two or three days." Wang Chuan suggested.
"Sure." Ye Muyu thought that it was convenient to buy the shop at noon when she was planning to bring double-skin milk to Chu Heng. She also wanted to consider what kind of business she could start.
Ye Muyu went back to her room, changed into a different outfit and brought her household registration and some silver. This time she intended to buy private property, essentially adding to her dowry. While it was allowed in the Great Chu Dynasty, Chu Heng's consent was still necessary.
Chu Heng had already met Wang Chuan and seeing that he had time, Ye Muyu didn't worry about bothering him. She didn't plan to delay.
"Mom, are you going to the county? I want to go too." Chu Ziluo said, tugging at Ye Muyu's sleeve, acting spoiled.
Ye Muyu explained, "We're only going to the county for a property transfer, not for leisure. I'll come back at noon to cook for you and Xiao Jin. Are you willing to wait at home, or is running this errand too tiring?"
"Not tired, Mom. I want to go to the county with you." Chu Ziluo shook her head.
"Alright, then go change your clothes." Ye Muyu agreed.
Leaving Hu Shi behind to prepare lunch at home to avoid not being back in time for noon, Ye Muyu, Chu Ziluo, and Nenya got on the mule cart.
"Take care of Madam and Miss, don't be lazy, understand?" Seeing that both Ye Muyu and Chu Ziluo got on the cart, Hu Shi quickly reminded Nenya and handed her two water flasks.
"I understand, Mom." Nenya sat on the cart, too.
Zhang Shu was in charge of driving the cart.
Wang Chuan also drove his carriage leading the way. In just about fifteen minutes, they arrived at the county.
The mule cart stopped in front of Wang Chuan's family shop.
"Madam, this is the shop. Please come down and take a look." Wang Chuan's voice echoed from outside.
Ye Muyu got down from the mule cart, reaching out to help Chu Ziluo down as well. The two descended and Nenya followed closely, holding various items such as water flasks, an umbrella, and a handkerchief.
"Madam, come this way. I'll lead you." Wang Chuan parked the mule cart in front of the shop.
His family's shop had two storefronts in total, each about twelve feet wide. Together, they added up to twenty-four feet, equivalent to about eight meters making it quite spacious.
Entering the shop, the left side had some shoe cabinets but they were now empty and neatly organized.
The right side of the shop was vacant with no indication of what used to be stored there.
Wang Chuan explained when he noticed her gaze fall on the empty room on the right, "Originally, this side housed the tools for making shoes. In the past my family mainly customized shoes. Some customers had special foot sizes, or they couldn't wait for the shoes to be directly purchased."
