Ning Xiu shook his head and said, "That's Jia Gongzi's business, Ning wants to buy a house, and he can only provide so much silver." ”

Jia Zhen wanted to scold.

"Friend Ning, don't deceive people too much, three hundred and fifty taels is simply a call for flowers."

Ning Xiu smiled and said, "Just now Jia Gongzi said that this house cost five hundred taels just to buy it?" ”

"Of course!"

"And then it cost another five hundred taels to build rockeries and ponds?"

"Not bad!"

"Dare to ask Ling Zun how much is a year's salary? How many years of money does it take to buy such a house? ”

The prefect's monthly salary is sixteen stones, and the annual salary is one hundred and ninety-two stones, which is equivalent to forty-three taels of silver.

In other words, if you only rely on Yulu, this mansion Jia Zhifu will not be able to afford it for twenty-three years without eating or drinking.

Ning Xiu didn't know if Jia Zhifu had twenty-three years of service, but he knew that Jia Zhifu was by no means a model official with clean sleeves.

Qing officials will not spend 500 taels to buy a mansion, and they will not spend 500 taels to buy rockeries and build ponds and water pavilions.

Hitting a snake and hitting seven inches, Ning Xiu's words can be described as vicious and spicy, and he hit the nail on the head.

If Governor Jia was still in office now, of course Ning Xiu would not say that.

Although he has a good relationship with the Zhang family, he is a white body in the end, and isn't revealing the shortcomings of his parents and officials looking for death?

But now the situation is different.

The prefect of Jia has to be worried about filial piety, and he must go to work during this period, and naturally there will be a new prefect to take office.

Ning Xiu didn't have to worry about the Jia family's revenge at all.

He is fighting for the greatest benefit for himself, and it is also a means to reduce prices.

Jia Zhen's face turned green with anger at the moment.

Scholars have the particularity of scholars, and those who are officials also have the rules of being officials.

Ning Xiu's words are tantamount to breaking the rules.

Which official does not have a little gray income, what does it mean on the surface?

And this bargaining is too ruthless, everyone else is cutting in half, he is cut to the stomach......

But Zhang Maoxiu was next to him, and Jia Zhen was not good at attacking, so he had to say coldly: "Friend Ning is a little too much, Jia Mou doesn't sell it at this price!" ”

"Of course, Jia Gongzi can not sell it, but if Huguang Patrol inspects Jiangling according to the imperial history and asks who this house is, Jia Gongzi is not worried at all?"

"You!"

Jia Zhen took a breath of cool air, clenched his fists and said, "Mao Xiu, don't you stand up and say a few words?" ”

Zhang Maoxiu shook his head and said: "I'm just pulling a line to build a bridge, and it's not that I want to buy a house, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to talk too much." However, Zhang felt that Brother Ning Xian was still very sincere. ”

Jia Zhen: "......"

Seeing Zhang Maoxiu and Ning Xiu singing with a red face and a white face, Jia Zhen's lungs were about to explode.

But what can he do, offend Zhang Maoxiu for this?

That's more than worth the cost.

My father is Ding Wei, not Zhishi, and he still has to recover after three years of filial piety.

If you offend the Zhang family, the officials will definitely make it difficult, if you are sent to a poor country to be an official, what is there to fish?

Looking at Zhang Maoxiu's attitude, it was obvious that he was standing on Ning Xiu's side, and it seemed that he was gritting his teeth and bleeding.

"Three hundred and fifty taels is three hundred and fifty taels, but Ning Friend has to pay cash, a lump sum!"

Ning Xiu nodded and said: "This is easy to say, I will take the silver and two Jia Gongzi to take the deed, pay the money with one hand and the deed with the other, and the money and deed will be clear, and they will not owe each other." ”

“......”

Why does Jia Zhen think that he is in a hurry to beg Ning Xiu to buy a house? Why does it seem that he is the weaker side?

And this Ning Xiu, how does he feel cheap?

"Okay, friend Ning will take out the deed when he brings the silver!"

"I have to go back to get the silver, why don't Jia Gongzi take me to the backyard first."

The house of the three entrances is divided into a front yard, an inner yard, and a back yard.

The front yard is the place where the guests are entertained and discussed, and the inner courtyard is where the host lives and lives.

As for the backyard, it is generally used as a backup. If you have too many dependents, you can also place them in the backyard.

Ning Xiu only saw the front yard and the inner courtyard but not the backyard, so he was naturally not very relieved.

After all, if you want to spend a few hundred taels of silver to buy a mansion, you should be cautious and find out the situation of the mansion.

"Okay, then Jia will take Ning Friend to take a look."

Jia Zhen just wants to sell the house as soon as possible at the moment, follow in his father's footsteps and go back to his hometown Baoding Mansion to enjoy happiness, and he doesn't want to stay in Jiangling City for a moment.

The three of them passed through the moon gate, bypassed the shadow wall, and came from the inner courtyard to the backyard.

A neat row of side rooms is arranged in front of you, and in front of it is a wide courtyard.

Ning Xiu was overjoyed in his heart.

This backyard is just too suitable for him.

After the soap expansion needs a larger site, this yard is just right.

That row of rooms can be used by hired long-term workers.

However, in this way, it is necessary to seal the backyard and the inner courtyard to prevent long-term workers from contacting their families.

Anyway, there is a door in the backyard, which does not affect the entry and exit.

In this way, the courtyard equal to one three-entry is divided into two sets of courtyards, and the backyard exists as a separate workshop.

Ning Xiu spent more than three hundred taels of silver, not only to buy a set of exquisite mansions, but also to buy a workshop, this transaction is really profitable.

Of course, Jia Zhen didn't know what Ning Xiu was thinking, and quickly introduced that he just wanted to take the money and leave quickly.

After visiting the backyard, Ning Xiu had a systematic understanding of the layout of this mansion.

There are 12 side rooms and 3 main rooms. There are also eight south rooms and nine ear rooms. There are a total of 32 houses, and it is a real mansion.

After deducting the eight wings in the backyard, there are also twenty-four houses that can be used by the Ning family to live in. In this way, even if Ning Xiu marries a wife and has children in the future, it will be enough.

"Ning will go back to get the silver, and Jia Gongzi will wait for a while."

If you take advantage of it, you can't sell it anymore, and if the cooked duck flies, it will be a loss.

Ning Xiu immediately left Jiafu and borrowed Zhang Maoxiu's sedan chair to go home to get money.

Once and again, back and forth.

Ning Xiu came to Jiafu with three hundred and fifty taels of silver and made a delivery in the flower hall of the inner courtyard.

There is Zhang Maoxiu here, just to be a witness, one hand to pay the money, the other hand to hand over the deed, but the money deed is clear, Tong Su is not bullied.

"Friend Ning, this house will be yours from now on. You have to be kind to it. ”

Jia Zhen was like a little lady who had been rubbed with oil, looking at Ning Xiu with a resentful expression.

Ning Xiuzhi was a chill, and said in his heart, I just took advantage of you, as for this?

"Yes, yes."

Ning Xiu smiled and said, "But these servants? ”

Jia Zhen sighed and said: "A few elders will be brought back to Baoding Mansion with me, and the rest will wait for me to terminate the contract with them, please rest assured that Friend Ning." ”

Ning Xiu nodded.

This is the best, otherwise it will be too good to use the servants left by the Jia family.

However, such a large house does have to recruit some servants to take care of it. With the current financial resources of the Ning family, there is no problem in hiring a few rough servants and maids.

PS: Let's talk about the housing prices in the Ming Dynasty. The easiest thing to buy in the Ming Dynasty was a house, you could buy a house for a dozen times, and you could buy a pretty good courtyard house for dozens of times. As for the big mansion that can buy three entrances for a few hundred runs. Let's convert, the people of the Ming Dynasty were so happy.
