PWDLAW Chapter 317: Private Property?

 Chapter 317: Private Property?



That's why there are two separate rooms for storing different products.


Ye Muyu nodded in understanding. It seemed that Wang's family's shoe store was an old-established brand and they were skilled craftsmen, relying on custom-made shoes to make a living.


Unfortunately, Wang's family customers were only ordinary families in the county. Wealthy families like the Xie family had their own tailor shops for annual custom clothing and shoes. If Wang's family had been able to establish connections with prominent households like the Xie family, they wouldn't have been manipulated by someone like Lu Hu to this extent.


Luckily, no irreversible damage had been done, so it couldn't be considered a major disaster.


"There's a courtyard in the back where you can park mule carts, etc. There are two side rooms normally used to store materials."


Ye Muyu went inside and took a look. The two side rooms were not large but they were sufficient for storing materials. However, they couldn't be used for living since there would be no space left for materials.


Apart from the two front rooms for conducting business, the courtyard faced the rear entrance, and mule carts could enter from there.


The rear entrance led to a small alley.


Beyond the alley were some residential houses and Wang's family's house was near Yangliu Bridge.


However, what disappointed Ye Muyu was the lack of a well in the courtyard.


"Can we dig a well in the courtyard?" Ye Muyu asked.


Wang Chuan nodded, "Yes, we can. At that time our family's residence wasn't far from here and since this was just a shop, we didn't spend extra money on digging a well. Besides, there's a public well not far from here, just two corners away. However, in winter fetching water from the public well can be very cold and it's not as convenient as having your own well."


"If you want to dig a well, I know a customer who specializes in well digging. The price might be a bit cheaper." Wang Chuan suggested.


Ye Muyu nodded in agreement. If she could have a well, that would be satisfactory.


Most shops in the county were constructed like this and the key was that, being in the Jiangnan region they were often close to rivers, making Nanchang County relatively prosperous. Naturally, there were very few shops with low prices.


Wang's family's shop met her requirements and the crucial point was that the price was within her expectations.


Moreover, the courtyard behind Wang's family's shop was spacious. If she wanted to build one or two more rooms, it wouldn't be a problem.


Ye Muyu nodded in satisfaction, confirming that she wanted to buy it.


Wang Chuan felt relieved seeing her satisfied.


"These pieces of furniture..." Wang Chuan started to speak, but Ye Muyu interrupted, "Take these things to the new shop. They will be useful."


"Alright, Wang Chuan, thank you in advance." Ye Muyu said. She understood that he didn't want to take advantage of her.


Since the other party insisted, she wouldn't say more.


"Sister-in-law, shall we go to the yamen now?" Wang Chuan asked.


Ye Muyu shook her head, explaining, "I've already sent Zhang Shu to find Chu Heng. It may take some time. If you're busy, you can go ahead and I'll wait here."


"Sister-in-law, then you go to my house. My father wants to thank you in person." Wang Chuan suggested.


Ye Muyu didn't want to go at first but just as she finished saying that, Zhang Shu came back, saying that Chu Heng needed until noon to come out. He was currently in the seasonal exams.


She didn't want to disturb Chu Heng's exam.


Wang Chuan insisted on inviting her and since she learned that Wang Haiyan was ill, she also knew that she couldn't pretend not to know. After all, there were some family relationships and the other party had lost some money in the shop.


It happened that she had time, so she asked Zhang Shu to buy some gifts and went to visit.


At one o'clock in the afternoon.


Chu Heng, accompanied by Luchuan, appeared directly in front of Wang's family's house.


Since the person had arrived, there was no need to delay. They went straight to the yamen to handle the transfer of ownership.
