Chapter Ninety-Six: Hiding Gold

Pei Ziyun paced, thinking about finding this house. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

I don't have much memory about this in my previous life, but I only remember that before the current session, a person surnamed Zeng entered Beijing, and because he entered late, the cheap rooms were rented, and he had to be unlucky to spend money to rent a whole house, but he had a fortune, and he didn't know how to dig out the hidden gold.

The Ministry of Rites will try in February, and the palace test will be in April, so it is called Chunqiu, and now the New Year has passed, and it is January, which must have happened recently.

"Buried ten thousand gold, it must be rich or expensive, this is not enough, there is also a sudden weakening background, the inheritance is interrupted, so the hidden gold has not had time to excavate. Thinking about this, Pei Ziyun has a selection criterion.

With a decision, Pei Ziyun went out, this tooth line is divided into private teeth and official teeth, Pei Ziyun thought about it for a while, and went to the official teeth, in fact, there are considerations, private teeth are cheap and affordable, but this is the capital, and he is new to the city, and it is risky to find private teeth.

When I went out, I only greeted him, and the guy who had just won the silver reward showed him the way.

This tooth shop is in the west of the city, and when I found the tooth shop, many people came in and out, Pei Ziyun looked up at the plaque of the tooth shop, and he also went to the entrance.

Before entering the door, a tooth woman put down the melon seeds in her hand and greeted her: "This son is a son who went to Beijing to catch the exam?" I see that you are very lofty, your face is extraordinary, you will be able to go to high school, my house is good, the son can take a look, you can rent, buy better." ”

Ya Po came up and said with a broken mouth, still holding a book in her hand, listening to Ya Po's words, Pei Ziyun didn't explain: "I don't want a small house and a small house, I look for a more spacious and larger house, my ancestors have been rich and noble, get some blessings, rent it for a few months, and participate in the imperial examination." ”

Ya Po's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she had no doubt about Pei Ziyun's requirements, not to mention lifting people, that is, officials believe in feng shui and pay attention to "vigor", but the average lifter who enters Beijing does not have so much money.

Large mansions, and some people are willing to rent, which is a high achievement, and the tenants of small mansions are often urgently needed, are harsh, and the income is not high.

When Ya Po heard that Pei Ziyun wanted to see the mansion, her eyes lit up, and she smiled: "Son, come on, come on, please drink tea, let's talk about this in detail." ”

Ya Po ordered one to wait in the hall for the maid to pour tea.

Ya Po is not idle, she opened the booklet in her hand and pointed to it and said: "Childe, look at this family, the house is good, four rooms, spacious, it is a house of an old Beijinger, and now the official has gone to the local office, and it is empty." ”

"Tell me about the history of this house. Pei Ziyun smiled.

At this moment, the maid handed over the tea, Pei Ziyun took the tea, and the tooth woman sipped her teeth and said: "This family has been moved, son, how can you find a rich and noble family, this is a poetry and book heirloom, the family style is good, and the son will be settled?"

Hearing this, Pei Ziyun couldn't help frowning, he didn't want to come to the house, but to hunt for treasures, this hearing didn't fit his memory, and said, "No need, you just have to find it for me." ”

Listening to Pei Ziyun's words, Ya Po's face was a little bad, she turned down and looked at the house, and said: "This house is very good, eighteen rooms, the house is crisp and wide, the weather is open, the rent is 5 taels a month, but the rent is only 35 taels a year, and there have been rich and noble people." ”

Ya Po pointed and said, listening to Ya Po's words, Pei Ziyun asked, "Who is the owner of the house?"

Ya Po smashed her mouth a few times and said, "It's a person surnamed Zhang, and I'm down." ”

Pei Ziyun asked again: "What about the predecessor of this family?"

Ya Po is a little cautious, and refuses to say more without asking the end.

"Let me think about it, it was the Xiao family, who was a waiter, and when the previous dynasty, the Xiao family was robbed, and the house was robbed overnight, and the Zhang family occupied the house. ”

"Tell me about the rest of the house!"

"Childe, this house is good. Ya Po pointed to a house, there was a room in the atlas, and it seemed to be luxurious, without waiting for Pei Ziyun to ask, Ya Po knew that Pei Ziyun was used to saying: "Childe, this house is a royal residence of the imperial history, and it is not bad, I have been promoted recently, and I am ready to sell the house, and it is not bad for Childe to buy it." ”

Ya Po said that the Beijing officials are very mobile, and there are constantly people who are promoted and released, or return to their hometowns when they are old, and they have to return to their hometowns after the death of their parents, so there are often house turnovers.

Pei Ziyun asked carefully, and after a while, these houses were basically asked, Pei Ziyun liked the house where the former court servant was killed the most, this house was the most likely, but he was still a little hesitant.

Ya Po said: "Childe, it's not okay for you to hesitate like this, the old body is also busy, so I can't spend all my time with you." ”

Although there was still a smile on his face, his tone was a little dissatisfied, and after listening to Ya Po's words, Pei Ziyun reacted and threw out a tael of silver: "This silver is for you, you take me to the scene to see." ”

Ya Po took the silver tael, her eyes lit up, and her smile was much more enthusiastic: "Thank you Gongzi, Gongzi, I'll go outside and call a carriage to go to the house together." ”

This tael of silver is worth the income from selling a small house on weekdays, and it can be said that it has been earned today, Pei Ziyun is so generous, maybe there is still oil and water.

Going out, a carriage stopped at the door, Da Xu Chuli, many places only use ox carts, I don't want to have a lot of carriages in the capital, and I got into the carriage with Ya Po, Ya Po has been thinking about the benefits of the house, Pei Ziyun ignored it.

After a moment's pause, Ya Po looked at it and said, "Childe, it's here, please come down and take a look at the house." ”

Pei Ziyun got off the carriage and went to the door with Ya Po, and the two lifters were also watching at the door, and saw Pei Ziyun and Ya Po is stepping forward: "I look at the notice posted on it, saying that this house is rented, I don't know how much the price is?"

The owner of the house not only entrusted the house to the house, but also posted a notice to rent it, and he had to go to the house to find the owner of the house to ask for guilt.

Pei Ziyun looked at the lifting in front of him, was stunned for a moment, and asked: "I am from Yingzhou, but this one also came to rent a house, I don't know the surname of the son?"

Juren was stunned for a moment, and replied politely: "The surname of the contemptible person is Zeng." ”

Pei Ziyun's eyes lit up, and he had determined that this house would hide silver, so he turned to Ya Po and asked, "I think this house is good, how much silver did I buy?"

The tooth woman who was angry and troublesome to the landlord listened to Pei Ziyun's words, was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "What does Childe mean to buy?"

"Naturally, I thought that if I got a jinshi and was awarded an official this time, I would also have to live in Kyoto for a while. ”

"If you don't win, you won't go back, so I'll study in Kyoto and wait for the next exam. ”

"In that case, why rent it, it is better to buy it than to waste money. ”

Pei Ziyun said, this reason is really seamless, Ya Po's face was happy, and she clapped her hands: "Gongzi Guo is an understanding person, not those shabby, rest assured, this family will definitely be willing to sell, five hundred taels at most." ”

When the two of them entered, Zeng Ju was a little unwilling: "This house is quiet and wide, and it is not a loss to rent it to study literature." ”

One side raised a smile and said: "Brother Zeng, it's just a courtyard, let's look for it separately, I think the son just now seems to want to buy this small courtyard, it is the son of a rich family, the teacher ordered before coming, this capital is deep, we can not offend people or not offend people." ”

Hearing this, Zeng Juren knew that it was reasonable, but for some reason he was always a little reluctant and unwilling, so he refused to leave, saying, "Let's go and see together." ”

As he spoke, he pulled the person to his side and went inside.

Pei Ziyun entered the house, this house is spacious and bright, some flowers are planted in the flower beds, long and luxuriant, but they are not pruned, it looks messy, Ya Po is familiar with this courtyard, and went straight to a house in the middle of the courtyard, knocking on the door fiercely.

"Who?" a man's voice sounded, and then the door opened, his face was a little impatient, and when he opened the door, he saw that it was Wang Yapo, and his face was happy: "It turned out to be Wang Po, but someone came to see the room, please come in, please come in." ”

This middle-aged man was a little poor, his face was not very good, and he smelled of alcohol and rouge.

"This son has fallen in love with you, you can make a price for this house. Wang Yapo said directly.

"Hehe, Wang Po, I didn't tell you the price, I rent out this house, at least five taels a month, one Chinese New Year's Eve and five taels, Tong Yu is not bullied." The man rubbed his hands, seemed a little cold, and sneered.

Wang Yapo's face changed: "Zhang Cheng, who told you to rent it, you bought it, didn't you say that you were going to sell this house and prepare to redeem your little flower, it's just right now." ”

"Eight hundred taels of silver, you can take this price. Zhang Cheng grinned, with obscenity on his face.

Listening to this price, Pei Ziyun's face was not good, this house is at most four or five hundred taels of silver, and the price of eight hundred is to kill people, when Ya Po heard this, she looked at Pei Ziyun's face was unhappy, and said, "Zhang Cheng, what do you mean?"

"Now the price is rising, let me tell you, you are like this, you think you can sell it, you can find it yourself!"

Hearing this, Zhang Cheng's face changed, and he was a little angry, and Ya Po continued: "In addition to this house, what do you take to redeem your flowers and give a real price." ”

Zhang Cheng looked forward to looking at the two lifters who followed up, but these two lifters listened to Zhang Cheng's offer, their faces were not good, and after waiting for a while, seeing that these two people did not follow the price, they were immediately deflated.

Zhang Cheng gritted his teeth: "Five hundred taels, this price, Mrs. Wang, you know that I didn't shout the price, no matter how low it is." ”

Wang Po came back and said, "Son, if you don't like this house for five hundred taels of silver, you can buy it if you are satisfied." ”

Zeng Juren stepped forward: "Zhang Cheng, you can collect 35 taels of rent for this house a year, and 355 taels for ten years, why sell it like this, or rent it out safely." ”

Zeng Juren seemed a little unwilling, and Zhang Cheng's face was not good: "Why don't you buy it too?"

Zeng Juren's face changed, and he was about to step forward, Zeng Juren lifted people on his side and dragged them away, he didn't have five hundred taels of silver to buy this house, and now he has no money to sing against the stage, it is easy to offend people, and he dragged him out and complained: "Brother Zeng, what's going on with you today, it's not good for you to harm others for nothing." ”

The two went out, and it was more convenient to bargain, and in the end 450 taels were sold.

The group returned to the dental office, carried out notarization and delivery, the transaction was completed, Zhang Cheng went out with the silver ticket, and the tooth woman also had a smile on her face, and this business was five taels.

Wang Yapo was satisfied, and looked at Pei Ziyun with a smile: "Son, if you buy this courtyard, do you want to buy two more maids?" ”

Pei Ziyun said: "Don't use it for the time being, wait until I decorate the house." ”

Wang Yapo sent Pei Ziyun out, saw the distance, checked the silver in her hand, and kissed it: "This trip is really earned." ”
