After leaving the store, Li Mo took a deep breath.

Seeing that it was still early, not yet time for Song Dashan to pick her up and take her home, Li Mo had no place to go, so she simply wandered around the street.

Sister Yue's clan didn't like her so much, so it was impossible for her to go back to the store. Otherwise, neither she nor Sister Yue would have a peaceful life, so it seemed that something had to be done early in her plan.

Li Mo glanced at both sides of the road as she walked, trying to see if there were any vacant stores.

Originally, she was planning to wait until Song Dashan's leg was completely healed before opening up her own store, but now it seems that this matter must be done in advance.

In fact, at this time, it was an appropriate time for her to open her own shop. The first thing was, their money was enough. The county magistrate had given their family a hundred taels of silver, and adding with the spare money her family had saved, buying a store won't be any problem for them. 

Secondly, they have enough connections now. She had worked with Sister Yue's store for a long time. A lot of people already knew her. She also accumulated some old customers. Thus, even if she opens up a new store, customers won't be the problem. 

The third was security. Now that she was acquainted with Sima Haoran, she wouldn't have to worry if other stores would make problems with her store.

The time, the place, and the people were all there. Now the problem was to see if she could find the right store.

Li Mo wandered around the small and large streets of the town. Her legs were sore from walking. At last, at the end of a slightly remote street, she discovered a vacant store that had not yet been opened for business. 

Li Mo guessed that this store location was not good. It was not lively enough, which was why no one rented or bought out the store.

Although the location was not really good, there were no other stores to choose from, so Li Mo still planned to inquire about this store first.

After wandering around the shop's gate for a long time, she couldn't find even a note on the door, and there was no contact information of the homeowner at all. Li Mo thought she had missed it, but she still couldn't find anything after searching for it several times. She then confirmed that there was really none.

Li Mo had no choice but to go to the store next to it and asked the store owner about the vacant store.

As a result, Li Mo found that the store next door was actually selling incense and paper money, and other things.

Li Mo then realized that there was actually another reason for the store's vacancy in addition to the poor location. In ancient times, people were concerned about having good luck for their business. 

Naturally, they wouldn't want to have a shop that was close to a store that sold things used for the deceased. It was some kind of taboo for them.

However, Li Mo, as a person who came from the modern era, did not believe in feudal superstition. She also didn't think that selling incense and paper money was taboo. She doesn't need to care about this. Therefore, she stepped in directly and faced the people behind the counter. 

She asked the person: "Boss, I want to ask, has the shop owner next door left their address? I want to ask about the shop, but I don't know how to find the owner."

The man behind the counter smiled. His eyes widened in surprise.

He looked back and forth at Li Mo twice before asking uncertainly, "Do you want to do business?"
