Chapter Fifty-Six: Success of the Pit Man
[Ran^Text^Library] Climb the mountain in the morning, practice calligraphy in the afternoon, eat two catties of meat at each meal, and secretly swallow various medicinal materials from time to time.
Gu Xinyue touched her wrist that was beginning to have flesh, touched her soft and smooth hair that had begun to turn black, and then compared her height by the door frame, and walked out of the door refreshed.
As soon as he walked out of the room, he saw Qin Qi hurriedly walking in from the courtyard gate, looking at the look on his face, Gu Xinyue's mood suddenly improved.
It must be that the Zhuangzi Oil Mill has arrived!
During this time, Qin Qi ran to the capital three times, and she thought that this thing would not be done.
Seeing Gu Xinyue's overjoyed appearance, Qin Qi grinned, stepped forward quickly, followed her into the house, and then closed the door.
The two guards stood opposite the door and blocked the Wenzhu who came to deliver water.
Walking into the bedroom, Qin Qi took out a cloth bag from his arms, opened it, and put the paper wrapped in it on the table one by one: "This is the Zhuangzi's land deed and house deed, these are the shop's, this is a small Zhuangzi." ”
Seeing Qin Qi put down seven cards in a row, Gu Xinyue's eyes widened and said, "Why are there so many?!" ”
"Last year's harvest on the Xinqiao side was not good, and the land rent for an acre of land was only eight taels of silver, and the land price was also reduced, and the price of the mountain land has never been high, and it is not the summer vacation place that the royal eunuchs like in the front mountain, so it is very cheap, and it is a total of seven thousand taels of silver."
Qin Qi poured the water on the table casually, drank it in one gulp, and continued: "The three paintings and the two jade bottles that I took in the warehouse last time were all sold, and I got a total of 18,000 taels of silver, and 3,000 taels were given to the Chinese, and we actually got 15,000 taels, so I picked this small Zhuangzi, which is only two days away from us, and it also belongs to the Lingshan Mountain Range, but it is relatively remote, the fertile land in the Zhuangzi is only 400 acres, but it brings 1,500 acres of mountainous land, and it costs a total of 5,000 taels of silver, and the rest, I will let Master Wei be the master. Helped us pick five shops, these five, are leased, one of them is a pharmacy, we just collect rent, medicinal materials can also be sold directly to this shop, if you want to take back your own do, the lease is until October next year, when the time comes. ”
"10,000 taels can buy five shops?" Gu Xinyue exclaimed.
"Not only that, I also have to move two thousand taels of cash in the treasury to Lord Wei, and Lord Wei will help us pay some in advance, and I promised to give him six horses of Xiya for three thousand taels, and then the jade screen I brought over this time is worth three thousand taels."
That is, 18,000 taels to buy five shops, Gu Xinyue turned her head around, and said, "How to calculate the rent of the shop?" ”
"They signed an annual payment, this one is eight hundred taels, this one is one thousand taels, this one is five hundred taels, this one is one thousand five hundred taels, this one is nine hundred taels, but this year's annual rent has been paid to the former owner, so this year's rent will be deducted from the official sale price, and in October this year, they will come to pay the rent."
Qin Qi said as he peeked at Gu Xinyue, fortunately, there seemed to be no doubt.
The location and rent of these five shops are very good, naturally they will not be able to buy them for 18,000 taels, Gu Mohan also brought 15,000 taels of silver tickets when he came back from delivering the letter, and asked him to put them in them to buy a shop for Gu Xinyue together.
Of course, there is another sentence, the things that come from the house, those that they take themselves, don't touch, outsiders know, they can start selling.
"That, Qin Qi, those two jade bottles and three paintings can be sold for 18,000 taels, why do you only get 3,000 taels for the jade screen that pays off the debt to Lord Wei." Gu Xinyue asked with a puzzled face.
Qin Qi glared at her, wasn't he still calculating how much rent he could recover in a year just now? Why did you go to the jade screen again?
"Master Wei and my brother have a good relationship? So you gave him a discount? Gu Xinyue stared at him and said.
Thinking that if he didn't make it clear, the girl who would be sold in the future would come at the sky's price, and he would really jump into the river and not be able to wash it.
Coughing lightly, Qin Qi said: "That's the case, the one who bought the painting and the jade bottle is the second master of the Gu family, that is, your second uncle, the old lady of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion and the old lady of the Gu family have a grudge, and the two masters below the two families do not deal with each other, this is the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion used some means inside, and the second master Gu bought it at a high price, in fact, to really sell it, the market price is not enough to be three thousand taels." ”
Three thousand taels of things sold for eighteen thousand!
Gu Xinyue raised her thumb, her mouth cracked open with joy, and she laughed: "High, too high!" This master of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion must introduce me to me in the future, it's really cool! Does he still need something to continue to play Gu Erye? We're here to pick him tightly! By the way, tell me, how did he use it? ”
Qin Qi didn't feel it, looking at her energetic appearance, although he thought that a girl from a beautiful and famous family should not learn this kind of trick, he said with a smile in his mouth.
"Gu Erye's person, there is no ink on his chest, but it is best to pretend to be elegant, he can't understand the painting, but he likes to point out famous artists, this is what Qi Sanye of Dingyuan Marquis Mansion said, after I gave him something, Qi Sanye asked someone to get a party, saying that it was a proud work of appreciating Master Shou, and the landscape jade bottle made by Master Huiming himself, Gu Erye naturally went, Gu Erye prided himself on being the most authoritative connoisseur of Master Shou, and when he saw the painting, he naturally wanted it, and Qi Sanye also bid, and said that the Gu family was a moneyless, and Master Shou had no money to buy such a good work, A group of people put aside the joke Gu Erye, and Gu Erye gambled and directly raised the price to 18,000 taels. ”
That is, to take advantage of Gu Erye's ignorance and good face.
Gu Xin nodded happily and said, "It's back for 12,000 taels, but there are still 78,000 taels yet, we can learn this trick." ”
I wanted to say that it wasn't 30,000 taels? After thinking about it, he understood the source of Gu Xinyue's algorithm, Qin Qi smiled slightly, and said: "I heard that after Gu Erye bought these things and went back, the original Zhuangzi had no money to pay, so I had to pick a small Zhuangzi with two hundred acres of land instead, but what was written was the name of the fourth girl. ”
"Do you know the location?" Gu Xinyue's eyes lit up, and when she saw Qin Qi nodding, she smiled gloomily and said, "Very good!" ”
Qin Qi put away the deed, looked out the window and said: "You put these away, the people of the Yuan family are almost sold, I only bring a few back, pick a day, let's go to Xinqiao together, do you think it's good?" ”
Gu Xinyue also glanced at the busy maids outside the window, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go tomorrow." ”
These days, the villa is normal, peaceful and quiet, except for Yuan Zheng's son who appeared at the warehouse and the door of the main courtyard several times, there is no other abnormality.
It is indeed necessary to stimulate them, and it is really hard work to always guard against it!
