Chapter 199: Borrowing Money from Her Mother

If Mr. Qin insisted, they would need to pay 20 taels upfront for 5 months.

Although she only had 6 taels of silver on hand, she could save 10 taels quickly as long as she didn't continue spending.

Then, she would borrow 10 taels from her mother, and 5 months' rent would be settled.

As for the deposit, she would probably give it to Mr. Qin directly. After all, Mr. Qin had already paid the landlord the deposit.

The deposit would be at most 2 months' rent, which was 8 taels of silver. She would give it to him a few days later, and he would probably agree.

Of course, this was the worst case scenario. Perhaps, she didn't even need to pay 5 months' worth of rent in one go. That would depend on how her conversation with Mr. Qin went.

If she was unlucky and Mr. Qin wasn't prepared to share his shop, or the landlord didn't agree, she didn't even have to spend a single cent.

"If you want to use it, just take it!" Liu Shi said with a smile.
