Jiang Li listened to the general situation before and after, and Yixing Yanshan went downstairs. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

A few days ago, Jiang Rui and the brothers took a fancy to several pieces of land in the city, and came back to tell Jiang Li, but Jiang Li personally inspected the scene and felt still not very satisfied.

The last place is a private mansion on a street not far from Taibaiju. I heard that the children of a family in the middle of the road want to sell the whole house, including a row of shops in front of the door and two large gardens behind the house.

Jiang Rui just said casually, and the two brothers were not very optimistic about this mansion. First, the cost of buying the whole house was too high, and the brothers only took a fancy to the row of shops in front of him, but the family did not want to disassemble it and sell it. Second, even the Xu family felt that although the land was in the city, it was very close to Taibaiju, and even the publicity of attracting guests could save a lot. But after all, it is a private residential area, and it is much more deserted than the main street. So it's just a matter of talking about it, and I won't mention it.

Only Jiang Li secretly moved his mind and wanted to go to the field to investigate.

On this day, he brought Xiaoxiang again, and before going out, Jiang Li used the newly explored makeup method to pick himself up with Xiaoxiang again. Xiaoxiang originally had healthy sun-kissed skin, so she still maintained her original complexion. Jiang Li only focused on thickening her eyebrows, darkening her lips, tying a blue square scarf on her head, and replacing her with an old cloth placket cotton jacket, green cloth breeches, and black homespun cotton shoes, which completely looked like a small girl.

Jiang Li himself is also dressed in a gray and white cotton robe, a gray squirrel with shoulders, and a hairpin on his head is also tied in a high bun, with a new eyebrow peak, a darkened complexion, a faded cherry lips, and two pairs of narrow sleeves are closed, as if he has returned to the appearance of going out in Meizhuang. Jiang Li only felt that his gestures were much more convenient. also turned around and playfully saluted the pothos: "Pothos girl, Xiaosheng is polite!" ”

The green pothos dodged sideways, and just about to explain as usual, Jiang Li pulled Xiaoxiang out of the door in a hurry.

According to the approximate address Jiang Rui said, the carriage circled around the street near Taibai Juzuo, after all, he found the family surnamed Cheng who wanted to sell the mansion.

Looking through a half-open gate, the vermilion plastered walls inside and the courtyard are deep. The luxury of the past is faintly recognizable. In front of the door, there is a deserted and wide street, and there are shops such as incense and silk flowers.

A notice was posted on the vermilion lacquer door, indicating the construction area of the Cheng family's house and the willingness to sell it together with the eight large shops in front of the door. The lower half of the notice was torn up and couldn't be seen clearly.

Jiang Li randomly asked a shop at the door, but the young flower seller was a talkative person and came to Jiang Li one by one.

I learned from the shopkeeper that the Cheng family's ancestral home was from other provinces, and they moved to the capital as officials from their ancestors, and now the family is withered, leaving only two brothers of the Cheng family. The elder brother wants to take the whole family back to his ancestral hometown to live, and the younger brother and uncle of the younger brother live in Beijing for a long time, so they don't want to leave Beijing.

"I heard about the sale of this old mansion, and the brothers are secretly more energetic. The boss relied on being a concubine, and he just wanted to sell the house as soon as possible, and changed the money so that he could pack up and leave, and he was afraid that he didn't want to leave it for his brother. The second child out of the concubine is a sick seedling, originally unable to speak, fortunately there are people in the mother's family, guarding the gate all day long, seeing someone come to buy a house, making a fuss, threatening to brother or house or shop, always to be the younger brother to leave the same, otherwise, no one is allowed to buy it. The shopkeeper said, "See, the two housekeeper-like people at the door are the brother's maternal uncle." ”

Jiang Lizao saw a tall and sturdy middle-aged man dressed in brocade at the door, occupying the position of the gatekeeper, and looked angry at the people coming and going at the door.

The young shopkeeper said, "There are many people who come to see the house these days, and they are all sent away by the big man, and as long as the boss is not at home, the man guards the door and does not even let the door in." I see you're here for nothing today. ”

Jiang Li did not believe in evil. I don't want to run this trip empty.

She asked the store to choose several bright silk flowers, threw out the silver, and did not let them make up for it, the silk flowers made Xiao Xiang hold it in her arms, and looked straight at the door of Cheng's house.

The young shopkeeper has made a business, and he can't help but be careful about this generous customer. The heart said, I hope these two people will not also eat back to the closed door.

But seeing Jiang Li and the two of them walk to the door and say a word, the tall and sturdy middle-aged man actually said to the two of them with a pleasant face, please come in, open the door and let people in.

As soon as he entered the door, Jiang Li changed his smiling face and said to the brocade-clothed man Zhengse: "Actually, I lied, I came to see if Cheng Ergongzi was fake, and it was true that I wanted to buy a house!" ”

The smiling man changed his face, and saw that the servant woman in the house had already collected the silk flowers and turned around, and was angry and annoyed if he wanted to drive people away like this.

Jiang Li said again, "My greeting to Cheng Ergongzi is also out of sincerity. If you want to buy this house, it may not be unfavorable to Cheng Ergongzi. Even if you don't let me see it today, I won't find the boss of the Cheng family another day? I can't escape the sale, if I meet a kind buyer like me, maybe when I negotiate a deal with Cheng Boss, I can say some good things to Cheng Ergongzi by the way, this deal is done, and Cheng Ergongzi will definitely not suffer a loss. ”

The middle-aged man showed a trace of hesitation on his face, looked Jiang Li up and down at the master and servant, thought about it carefully, and sighed: "I know that it is not a matter to see the sky like this." It is not easy to meet a buyer who can be sympathetic and say two good words. I hope that my son can match his words with deeds, and I should be grateful to my nephew for my son. I'll let my son in and take a look. ”

I said I walked aside. At that moment, the Cheng family's little servant, who was waiting far away, hurriedly stepped forward and led him into the garden to watch around.

In the garden, the nine-curved corridor rings, the strange stones stand in a forest, in the meantime, the moss becomes spots, the pothos is shaded, the white stone on the ground is built into a road, and the stream next to it is a foot wide and the stream passes through the flowers and willows, winds to the depths of the garden.

Crossing the stone bridge and crossing Liu Mo, Jiang Li kept at his feet, following the stream through the back garden. It turns out that the place where the stream comes from is a spring in the abandoned back garden, and what is even more rare is that it has just passed the spring now, the weather in the capital is still quite cold, but this spring is still steaming, and the outlet is like a hidden dragon spitting water, suddenly gushing out straight out, wetting a large area of barren flowers and grasslands.

Looking up, this deserted garden is lush with vegetation, strange rocks on the edge of the garden, and a group of rabbits and pheasants haunt it. Jiang Wei said: It seems that this garden has been deserted for a long time, and this family is so ruined that they can't even get the money to renovate the garden.

I secretly thought that such a seller had better send away, it seems that this trip was not in vain. I wanted to buy it, but I said to Xiaoxiang: "The garden in front of this house is barely visible, and the whole garden behind it has been abandoned like this." I'm afraid that spending money on repairs is a lot of money. ”

The little girl of the Cheng family who followed closely behind was not a dry meal, and stepped forward with a low eyebrow and a smile: "My eldest son said that the price is negotiable, but he is in a hurry to go back to his ancestral hometown." It's a coincidence that he's not at home today, otherwise, although you look at this garden, although it's barren, the eldest prince here can tell a lot of allusions. ”

Jiang Li pretended to be displeased, "Young Master Cheng is not at home, so he sent a small guy like you to deal with the buyers who came to see the house, and there was not even a housekeeper?" ”

The little maid laughed: "Don't hide it from the son, the servants of the family have been dismissed by the eldest son, and the housekeeper has already resigned, just me, or the follower of the eldest son who runs errands, today the eldest son goes out, leave me to take care of the family, otherwise, can I see the sky and let the person with the surname cross at the gate of our Cheng family?!" ”

The little servant said and glanced in the direction of the gate, Jiang Li saw it in his eyes, and knew the situation inside and outside this family. She really liked the Cheng family's house, and thought that buying it and opening a club integrating leisure and entertainment should be the best choice.

I didn't say anything, I just said that I would see it another day. I want a person in charge of the Cheng family to wait at home and listen to the echo.

The little guy promised to send him out of the gate. At the gate, the brocade-clothed man also sent it to Prime Minister Jiang Li.

Jiang Li took a carriage all the way to his home in a good mood, and from time to time he opened the curtain and looked out. The coachman turned a few alleys, and suddenly, a familiar man hurried past the carriage.

Jiang Li's thoughts turned sharply, and he muttered that this person seemed to have seen him somewhere. Seeing that the man had turned straight into a dim and secluded alley, Jiang Li suddenly remembered who this person was, and hurriedly asked the coachman to stop the car.
