Chapter 5 Entering Hanlin
Wang Sheng still didn't believe that he couldn't buy a good house for 10,000 taels of silver, so he immediately said that he would go to see it, and asked Renyazi curiously where it was, and Renyazi said that most of the officials living there were officials in the capital, so if it wasn't for officials, it might not be good to live there.
The house provided by Renyazi is indeed exquisite, looking at the whole Jiangnan style, but the price is also high, just such a yard, it costs 1,000 taels of silver, and it is not discounted; The other place, in the back alley of the downtown area, compared to the delicacy of the other side, this side can be described as dilapidated, however, the asking price is only six hundred and twenty taels, the key is that the area is twice as large as the previous one, in this way, Wang Sheng can not decide, if you choose this side, you can't live immediately, and there is a bit of noise, if you choose the house over there, the price is too expensive, one thousand taels of silver, where is it so easy.
Wang Sheng didn't expect the price of the capital to be so high, you must know that in Wuyang City, even the bustling wharf is only two or three hundred taels of silver to get two shops, and this is just a house, the price is so high, although the area is larger. I can't help but wonder if this tooth line is lying to himself because he sees his own face.
Wang Sheng said that he would consider it, and then turned around and went out of this dental store and went to another one, but the price of that dental store was similar to the original one, or even higher.
Wang Sheng went back and told Wang about this, Wang Ya was also present, and immediately clamored to go and see, Wang also felt reasonable, and said: "The child is his father, what Xiaoya said is right, why do you have to read it again!" However, this is expensive enough. It's much more expensive than in Wuyang City, and in that city, it's only two hundred taels, so you can get a yard or a big yard, why are the prices here so high? Oh my God, we've earned some money, otherwise, wouldn't we have nowhere to live? ”
Wang Sheng agreed, so he said, "It's getting late today. Let's go and see it tomorrow! ”
Wang and Wang Ya didn't care about shopping, the first thing was to see the house, after looking at it, Wang Ya felt that the first house was indeed very good. That alley is called Wuyi Alley, because the clothes worn by the officials are all black. The metaphor is an alley where officials live. Therefore, not only is it expensive, but it is not a high-ranking official who can't live, but it's safe to live here, and when I heard that it is an official, unless it is those thugs. Otherwise, whoever dares to come this way, even if it is a thug, they have to stay away, so. The area is also very safe.
The important thing is that this side is also quite close to the Hanlin Temple, and if you want to go to the court, it will not be far from the palace gate.
The other houses in the back alleys of the downtown area are very large, but as Wang Sheng said, they can be described as dilapidated, and they are in the downtown area, which is very noisy, but Wang Ya has some ideas when he sees this place, you can open an inn here, this place is so big, if it is not very good, if it is an inn, it is said that it is in the past, and the houses in the capital are mostly two-story and three-storey, and the inns are basically built with three floors, and the lower floor is a place to eat, and the second and third floors are places to stay.
Wang Ya thinks a little too much, this place, the area is large, but if it is used to open an inn, it is not enough at all, or it can only open a very small inn, which is incomparable with Wuyang City.
Therefore, when Wang Ya raised it, Wang said this problem, Wang Ya thought about it and said: "Mother, otherwise, let's open a small inn, which is so big, it is too eye-catching, and besides, we have to find two more shops to sell fast food restaurants and rummy restaurants, mother, what do you say?" ”
Wang sighed, it also makes sense, this capital, looking so prosperous, makes her, a peasant woman in the countryside, a little timid, and wants to open a shop, but she still has to wait and see first.
Wang said: "In this case, let's not do business for now, let's wait and see, by the way, the child's father, you can find out when the time comes, we live here, there is no news, we still have to rely on you." I think the house in Wuyi Lane is good, I heard that there are many former officials living there, let's be there and cleaner. ”
Wang Ya also thinks that the Wuyi Lane is very good to live in, mainly because you can live in it immediately, the attic is also exquisite, it should be the former owner is Jiangnan, so it is so beautiful, mainly there is a small pond inside, there are a few lotus flowers in full bloom, and the scenery of the rockery or something, if you let Wang Ya design, Wang Ya can not design it.
The only thing Wang Ya is dissatisfied with is that there doesn't seem to be a kang inside, but think about it, this kang is a northern thing, and this attic is obviously a southern style.
Everyone discussed it like this, and it was settled, during which Xiaoqing didn't speak, only said that it was good to live anywhere, but he put forward some opinions on the courtyard in the downtown area, and felt that the place was very cheap, and it was very good to buy, even if it was not used to live, as long as it was built to look like an inn, and then it was not sold to other things, it should be okay to rent it to some people.
Seeing that Xiaoqing and they also agreed to buy the house over there, Wang Ya was very happy, and made a decision: "Dad, mother, I think that as long as the house prices on both sides can be reduced, for example, the house in Wuyi Lane, if it can be nine hundred taels, then we will take it, and the house in the back alley of the downtown is only five hundred taels, let's buy it, after buying it, think about what we want to build, anyway, we still have some money at home!" ”
Not to mention a little money, this 10,000 taels of silver, if it is embezzlement of public funds, it is enough to cut off the head several times.
Ordinary people, where can there be a few hundred taels of silver that can make him not squander so much, that is, the Wang family, Wang Ya has earned some money, enough to squander.
The money is not Wang Sheng's, so in terms of decision-making power, Wang Sheng respects Wang Ya and Wang very much, and when he heard that they meant that both sides were bought, Wang Sheng agreed, saying that he would talk about it tomorrow.
The next day, Wang Sheng went to the tooth shop again, Wang Sheng first picked about the two places, one of course was that the location was not big enough, the price was so expensive, and he was a northerner, the small building looked exquisite, but he didn't like it, nor his style, so he said that he could drop it, and the house in the back alley of the downtown area, needless to say, if he bought it, he would have to wait for a long time, and he would have to start his own house, so if he could reduce the price, he would buy it.
It is said that the suspect is the buyer, this truth is true, although Wang Sheng is repeatedly picky, this tooth is still smiling on his face, and his heart is happy.
And as soon as he heard that Wang Sheng planned to buy even the Wuyi Lane, it showed that Wang Sheng was also an official, and he immediately respected Wang Sheng a lot.
Yazi patiently listened to Wang Sheng's pickiness, pondered for a while, and then said: "If the guest officer is willing, well, let's try it, talk to those two families, and see if it can be lowered." However, there is not much room for the Wuyi Lane to fall, and the small estimate may be nine hundred taels is the bottom line, and the house in the back alley of the downtown can only be six hundred taels, and five hundred taels will definitely not be able to buy. ”
Yazi's speed is very fast, Wang Sheng went in the morning, and in the afternoon, the Wuyi Lane got an echo, saying that the lowest is nine hundred taels, which is the price that Yazi said, and Nayazi explained: "The guest officer is cheap to buy at this price, if it weren't for the fact that the family has been released to be an official, and is about to retire, it will not be sold at such a low price." As for the back alley of the downtown area, and let the small one discuss it with the main family carefully. ”
Wang Sheng naturally agreed, he wanted to buy a house, and the formalities were done quickly, because this family was about to leave, if the house could not be sold, it would be sold in the future, they were not there, and the price would not be shouted by anyone, otherwise it would not be sold.
Therefore, as soon as Mr. Qian from Wuyi Lane heard that someone wanted to buy it, he agreed to nine hundred taels, but the condition was that he could only move out of Lu after three days, and Mr. Qian heard that the man who came to buy the house was a man surnamed Wang, although it was a little strange, but he didn't ask much.
In this way, the family has set a moving day, for them, the home is easy to move, everything is packed, just bring it in, and the rest, you have to buy it again, such as some kitchen supplies and the like.
I have been eating out for the past two days, so that the Wang family is not used to eating, even Xiaoqing and they are not used to it, because the food cooked here is unpalatable and expensive, and the Wang family is distressed to death, and it is difficult to say anything.
Therefore, they are also looking forward to moving in as soon as possible, but Wang Sheng can't be leisurely anymore, because Wang Sheng is going on a business trip.
On this day, it was the day when Wang Sheng went on a business trip, he got up and ordered porridge and side dishes in the inn, after eating, he went on a business trip, Wang Sheng arrived very early, because he thought that he was on a business trip on the first day, and it was naturally not good to be late.
After Wang Sheng arrived, because it was the first day, I didn't know what Lu Dao was going to do, so I sat stupidly in the lobby, and after a while, people came over one after another.
When the time came, all the talents of the Hanlin Academy arrived, one of them was said to be sick and asked for leave, and the rest, including Chen Zihan and Liu Sansi, also came, and they came one after the other, and they all came almost to the end.
At this time, there is a person holding a notebook, in the roll call, the name of the person who is called will agree, this is called Dianmao, and then the person named on the note on the mark, this is called Yingmao.
Wang Sheng looked at it and guessed in his heart: This person can't be the biggest chief here, right?
Actually, no, this is just a bachelor's degree, one level lower than the bachelor, and is specifically responsible for attendance here. (To be continued......)
PS: Because of the work during this time, I had to prepare the manuscript in advance, for fear of accidents, and the angel sadly found that he thought too well at the time, so he was Carvin.
