Chapter 328 - The New Plaque Was Hung Up
The gray gla.s.s on the top floor was wiped clean, revealing a clear and flowing l.u.s.ter. Furthermore, at the highest point, everyone could see it from afar. It was very bright and n.o.ble.
The outside that was similarly covered in dust had also been wiped clean. It was carefully wiped by the artisans with their specialized tools. Only then did everyone realize that the building was not dangerous or damaged. It was just that it had been standing in place for too long and looked old because it was covered in dust!
Then, everyone exclaimed. The building"s external structure was so exquisite. Furthermore, on a closer look, it was exquisite and cla.s.sy!
No one had gone in to take a look. They wondered what it was like inside.
Originally, when they saw this small building, everyone ignored it and did not take a second look. Naturally, no one had ever entered to take a look. They did not know what the structure inside was. Needless to say, when they saw the new appearance of this small building, many people were immediately tempted and wanted to enter to take a look.
They looked at the newly hung plaque.
The words on it were very imposing.
"Linhe Zhai Xing Lou? That"s a good name!" Someone read it out loud. "It"s very artistic and appropriate. Isn"t it just by the river? The river scenery at night is good. It"s like reaching out to pluck the stars."
As if a seal had been removed, everyone suddenly realized how good this new shop was.
The people from the market at the docks came over to take a look and gasped in surprise as they made their own comments.
"Oh, when was this building sold?"
"Why didn"t I know there was a shop here?! It"s a small building. Sigh!"
"I didn"t know there was a building here, either!"
"I know! Isn"t this Wei Lou?! It has been standing by the river for many years, but no one has bought it. It was covered in dust here. We all thought that it was about to collapse. The other half is on the river. I didn"t expect someone to buy it…"
"Why didn"t I know that this shop was for sale?! I thought this was someone"s private pavilion!"
"Me too. When I went to the broker to ask about shop fronts, the broker didn"t even mention this building…"
Some people even pounded their chests and stamped their feet.
The local citizens of Yuan City were speechless. They knew the inside story. They knew that the broker did not mention it because they did not take this shop seriously at all. Who in Yuan City would buy a shop by Linhe…
Unexpectedly, someone bought it.
"Who bought this shop? From the name, I only know that it"s a building. What business does it have? Is it a restaurant? Or what?"
As everyone stuck their heads out to guess, a woman"s figure flashed inside. She seemed to have walked out a few steps and said something to the artisans who were busy at the door.
No one knew who this figure was.
However, those who recognized her… recognized her immediately.
Some people in the crowd outside immediately widened their eyes and froze on the spot as if they had been struck by lightning.
Wasn"t that… someone from their village?
The Guan family"s… sixth daughter-in-law?!
Oh my!
Didn"t they say that Guan Chibei"s wife no longer left for the city to do business? Didn"t they say that her stall was gone?
Why was there a shop?! It was even a small building?!
Although it was by the Yuan River and by the docks, it was considered to be in Yuan City.
Guan Chibei"s wife had a shop in the city!
Ye Lulu saw that someone had discovered that the building was being renovated, but she didn"t care. She realized that this was quite good.
Therefore, she ignored the villagers in the crowd.
This villager turned around and rushed back to Yunwu Village, saying something shocking.
