Chapter 869: I Want This....
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Why would they rent out such a prime location?” Su Wen was curious.
This shopping mall was the first high-end shopping mall in the province, and its business was highly popular. As far as she knew, this mall had been open for 20 years and had become an emblem of the old city in the province.
“It’s impossible for them to rent it to me. Many people want it,” Zhou Yan was very clear about the situation. “If you want it, I can get someone to help you secure it, but the price won’t be cheap.”
Su Wen understood that securing it wouldn’t be easy. She might have to leverage her connections. Otherwise, such a prime position wouldn’t be available.
“I want it.”
“You have good taste.” Zhou Yan was very satisfied with Su Wen’s boldness.
Her eldest nephew’s daughter-in-law couldn’t be petty. She needed to be open and generous. Only with courage could she be worthy of her eldest nephew.
“Unfortunately, I don’t have that much money.” Her main income now was the royalties from her book. The royalties for the first and second editions were substantial, but they were too low if she wanted to open a shop and start a business.
“Hengyang gave me eight houses, but I couldn’t bear to sell them.” She knew their value would increase many times over in the future. If she sold them, she’d regret it profoundly. Besides, those were gifts from Hengyang. She could rent them out, but not sell them.
Zhou Yan pursed her lips. “Eldest nephew is good to you.”
“Of course.”
“If you don’t have money, write another book. Didn’t you say last time that you wanted me to be your manager? I’ll help you get business and make money.” Zhou Yan wanted to push Su Wen into the limelight. She’d be letting herself down if she didn’t become a celebrity with her face.
“But you have to get the eldest nephew to agree.”
“Okay!” Su Wen knew that Hengyang would agree. “Help me arrange it! It’s impossible to write a new book so quickly. I need to come up with an idea first.
It takes a long time for me to complete it.”
Zhou Yan couldn’t help but roll her eyes. “I knew it. People say that the more talented you are, the more temperamental you are. Which author doesn’t procrastinate? I’ve gotten used to it over the years.”
“It seems so, but I’m not talented.”
“Alright, stop coaxing me.”
“Then, when can Little Aunt help me secure the storefront? Remember to help me sign for a few more years.”
“Just wait! You know it these few days.”
“Good!”
Su Wen did not have dinner with Zhou Yan after looking at the storefront. Both of them were very busy. Zhou Yan was from the province and had many friends. She even had an appointment with her friends that night. Before they parted ways, Zhou Yan reminded her that Liu Juan often went to her house to observe the situation in Su Wen’s house.
Zhou Yan didn’t say a word and asked her to go back. However, she felt that Liu Juan hated Su Wen to death because of what happened last time, so she must be up to no good. She told Su Wen to be careful.
Su Wen silently noted it down in her heart. When she returned home, Su Qing and Yao Fang were still busy in the studio and had not returned. Su Xiu had familiarized herself with the surrounding environment. She even went to the market to buy vegetables and was busy preparing dinner.
As soon as Su Wen reached home, she was so tired that she collapsed on the sofa and did not want to get up at all.
She had walked too much today. Her soles hurt.
“Big sister, you’re finally back.” The Sixth Sister came down from upstairs and ran over quickly. She threw herself into Su Wen’s arms and was overjoyed. “Big Sister, you can’t chase us away next time. We can go to the studio to help you too.”
“Children should be playing. What can they do?” Su Wen rubbed her sixth sister’s hair lovingly..
