Chapter 57 Buying a House
Li Lianyi left, and Chumen silently put away the pots and pans for decoction before he returned to his room.
If he hadn't seen Xiaoyan and the others sleeping on the chairs.
There are four chairs in Truman's room, which are usually used to put some clothes or something.
Each of the four of them occupied one of the chairs, curled up in a ball with the new clothes they had bought, and fell asleep.
And the clothes that he threw on the chair at random were neatly folded aside by them.
He looked inside the room and found that not only his clothes were folded and placed in the closet, but also the quilts that were haphazardly placed in the morning, and the books, pens and ink on the tables and chairs next to him were all neatly organized.
The sudden sense of neatness made him a little uncomfortable, and after shaking his head secretly, he set his eyes on Xiaoyan and the others.
The fate of these girls is not good, most of them have been locked up by the Qian family for more than ten years, and the least has been a few years, although they are asleep at this time, but their bodies are shaking inexplicably, and two little girls even left tears.
I don't know if it's because of the loud sound of Truman pushing the door, Xiaoyan woke up, rubbed her eyes in confusion, and when she saw that it was Truman, she hurriedly stood up from the chair.
"Your Excellency." She said very respectfully.
Truman nodded and said, "There is an empty room next door, there is a bed and a quilt in it, you wake them up, let's squeeze it tonight." ”
Xiaoyan nodded yes, woke up the girls, and went to the next room.
When the door is closed, sleepiness and tiredness come flooding in.
Truman fell asleep.
......
Xu was too tired, and when Truman woke up again, he was already on the clock.
He sat up from the bed, rubbed his head a little irritably, and after a long time of emptiness, he got dressed and got up leisurely.
When he opened the door while moving his muscles, he saw that the maid Xiaoyan and others who had been accepted yesterday were already standing outside the door respectfully.
There were crystals dripping from their hair, and it looked like they had been standing for a long time.
Seeing Trumen come out, the four of them immediately bowed and saluted: "Slave and maid to meet the master." ”
Master!
Not a bad title.
"What are you doing standing here?" Truman asked.
Xiao Yan glanced at Truman with some doubts, as if she didn't expect that the high-ranking county magistrate didn't even know about this, she explained: "The maids are all going to salute the lord in the morning, and we were like this when we were in the Qian family, so we are also waiting to salute the lord." ”
Truman really didn't know that those rich and noble families still had these things in the morning, he smiled and said: "What should everyone do, why should you go, there is no need to greet in the morning, why don't you have so many requirements." ”
Xiaoyan said: "Yes, master." ”
"You haven't had breakfast yet, have you?" Truman said with a smile.
The women nodded.
Xiaoyan said: "The master hasn't eaten yet, we don't dare to eat...."
Truman was stunned, there were no maids before, he could eat as long as he wanted, so much to take care of, and now, the maids' food and accommodation are related to him.
He was really not used to this feeling, "Go and eat, Uncle De, you have also seen it, he won't say anything about you." ”
Xiao Yan said a little anxiously: "But ......"
Truman interrupted her, "I don't have so many requests here in the future, just be casual for everyone." ”
They came out of the hell of the Qian family, and they had experienced all kinds of torture by their masters, so they were afraid, afraid that they had done something wrong, and that they had said the wrong thing.
Now that they have finally escaped from hell and got a good life, they cherish it and are extra careful.
Xiaoyan cried, she is the oldest person and the most sensible person, the gap between the two places makes her cry.
Xiaoyan cried, and several others also cried.
They don't have as many thoughts as Xiaoyan, and in their hearts they think that the new master is going to abandon them, and they are going to fall into the streets.
And when they thought of this, they cried even more fiercely.
Looking at the four little girls with pear blossoms and rain in front of him, Chumen smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, you guys will also bring some for me after eating, and boil some hot water by the way, I will take a bath later." ”
"Yes."
After hearing what Truman said, the four of them immediately stopped their tears and ran towards the back kitchen happily.
Shaking his head helplessly, Truman walked to the courtyard and began the cultivation of the iron cloth shirt and the Immortal Dharma Sutra.
......
Today's weather is exceptionally nice, with sunny and cloudless skies.
On the streets of Yangzhou City, Chumen and Xu Jinwu were strolling.
Now that his family is big, he needs a bigger place to live.
Xu Jinwu followed with him to protect his safety.
As for Li Lianyi, I haven't seen her since the morning.
Passing by a shop called 'The Legend of the Dragon's Boat', Truman walked in, and after a fierce argument with the boss, he walked out satisfied.
Xu Jinwu came out slowly.
He was stunned, he originally thought that the dignified county magistrate would buy a splendid mansion with pavilions, but he didn't expect the former to buy a boat.
Don't have any money?
If he doesn't have money, a mansion as big as the Qian family is still there, and he can move in without spending a slight.
He really didn't know what this county magistrate thought?
"My lord, why are you doing this?"
Xu Jinwu took three steps and two steps along, stepped forward and asked.
Truman smiled and didn't answer.
He just said, "Let's go, let's go see my ship first." ”
Truman is not without money, in addition to the more than 100,000 taels of silver left by Huai Ruili, the jewels and silver tickets he Shun add up to about 10,000 taels, plus the 10,000 taels he extorted before.
Now the money in his hand is a full 120,000 taels.
Even if the 100,000 taels don't cost it, the 20,000 taels can buy a good house.
Even if he doesn't have to buy it, the Qian family's mansion is there, and he can move in at any time.
It's not that he hasn't thought about moving in, but moving into the hellish place of the Qian family, his heart is inevitably a little uncomfortable.
As for why buy a boat?
Truman has his own ideas, the invincible county order system gave him three main lines, and the time limit is three hundred days, but if three hundred days pass, what if he completes these three main tasks?
At that time, Yangzhou County had no internal and external troubles, people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and did not close their doors at night, and the system would give him tasks? Will he still be allowed to stay in Yangzhou County?
None of this is certain.
Moreover, even if the system no longer gives tasks, it does not say that he will not be allowed to stay in Yangzhou County, and he will not only stay in Yangzhou County.
After all, he still wants to see the thousands of miles of the Great Jin Dynasty.
So instead of spending a lot of money to buy a house and selling it again after 300 days, it is better to spend money on a big boat.
At that time, follow the Qianjia River, to the Dafu River, and then to the Yangtze River, all the way to the east, to Kyoto, to Hangzhou, to see thousands of households, to see the splendid scenery.
It was his dream.
