Lei San was engaged to someone last month, and after being a matchmaker, Lei San married the daughter of the Han family, a famous beautiful girl in ten miles and eight towns. Lei San pondered that he couldn't let the daughter of the Han family suffer with him, so he was ready to buy a luxury villa in the new city of Fanjiazhuang. He sold his original small villa and got seventy taels of silver, and used his savings over the years to buy one hundred and sixty taels, a total of two hundred and thirty taels of silver, to buy the Yao family's luxury villa.

In recent years, the villas in Fanjiazhuang have been very popular, and the new houses released by the official have long been sold out. The price of second-hand villas on the market is three or four percent higher than the official original price. The small villa that Lei San bought for fifty taels was now sold to recruits for seventy taels of silver. But the price of the second-hand luxury villa that Lei San wants to buy is also sixty taels of silver higher than the official price.

The seller who sold the villa to Lei San was a businessman who was ready to follow the Lord of Jin Guogong to Tianjin Acropolis to develop, so he sold the luxury villa in Fanjiazhuang.

Lei Sanhe stood at the door of the luxurious villa, tiptoeing and looking inside, very happy. The luxury villa is different from the ordinary villa, and the workmanship is much more exquisite. The gatehouse is made of two eaves and looks very magnificent. On the ridge of the roof there are various carvings carved with birds and animals.

This luxurious villa covers an area of nearly 150 square meters, with two floors, six bedrooms, a study, two toilets, in addition to the main hall and a dining room, it is the best place to make a new house.

Lei San seemed to have seen the bride's happy expression after entering this luxurious villa.

The more Lei San looked at the villa, the happier he became, he used to be just a peasant disciple whose father didn't love his mother, and he couldn't eat enough. However, after joining the Tiger Division, he has made steady progress, and now he has become a platoon commander. This time, when he heard that he was going to marry, he said that the matchmaker came to his house, and the girls from all over the country were at his disposal, and in the end he chose the most beautiful one.

If you buy this luxury villa again, Lei San will have nothing to lose.

Lei San waited at the door of the villa for a quarter of an hour with the silver in his hand, only to see the seller walking over with the "Lizheng" of this street.

However, the seller was not good, and when he saw Lei San, he said with a grin: "Platoon Commander Lei, I've been waiting for a long time!" But I'm sorry! The price of my villa has increased, and now it sells for two hundred and forty taels! ”

Lei San was stunned, and was speechless for a while.

Lei San thought about it for a long time before he asked helplessly: "Patriarch Yao, three days ago he said two hundred and thirty taels, why did the price increase increase by ten taels today?" ”

The seller spread his hand and said, "Now the house prices are rising everywhere, not my own price increase." Among the people who sell houses on this street, the price of my house is the lowest. ”

He was looking at Lei San and nodded.

Lei San looked at the seller in annoyance, opened his silver bag, and looked at it. And there were only two hundred and thirty denarii in the sack. Lei San searched in the pocket of his military uniform, and found five taels of silver.

But all the silver added up was only two hundred and thirty-five taels.

Lei San looked down at the silver in his hand, stunned and didn't speak.

The seller laughed and said, "If the platoon leader Lei doesn't have enough silver, I'll sell it to someone else." Yesterday, someone said that they wanted to buy my villa for 245 taels! ”

Lei San looked at the seller, thought for a while and said, "Patriarch Yao, don't you want to raise the price so much, is it okay to be five taels of silver cheaper?" ”

The parents of the Yao family glanced at Lei San, laughed, and didn't bother to answer this sentence.

Lei Sanyi was overwhelmed.

Lei San's entire belongings are only 235 taels of silver, and if you want more silver, you will have to wait for the monthly money to be paid next month. However, his daughter-in-law will pass through the door next month, how will he welcome his relatives next month if he doesn't buy this house?

Lei San was a little anxious, and he sweated in a hurry in the spring breeze in March.

Lei San doesn't like to borrow money from others, especially when he buys a house to welcome his relatives, and he doesn't like to be told that the house was bought with borrowed money.

Lei San thought for a long time, and then said: "Seller, a lot of my silver is the reward silver of the tiger master, and the barefoot blowing silver issued by the grandfather of the country is not comparable to the silver ingots on the market. ”

The seller rolled his eyes and said, "What kind of silver do I care about you, can't you use one or two pieces of silver for two or two?" All in all, two hundred and forty taels. ”

There was a look at Lei San's silver bag, pondered for a moment, and said, "It's really blowing the silver mile of Nanruthenium!" ”

Lei San looked at the seller, and when he saw that the seller was not ready to give in at all, he sighed. He was about to put away the silver bag, but he heard it say: "Platoon Commander Lei, you might as well go to the Jinqi Bank to try, where the silver is carefully checked when changing banknotes." If you blow out the southern ruthenium silver with more than 100 taels of bare feet, you may be able to exchange more money. ”

Lei San was stunned and looked at the businessman who bought the house.

The upper family nodded and said, "If there is a banknote from the Duke of Jin, I will also accept it." Nowadays, there are preferential tax payments on this banknote, and we all like to buy and sell. ”

When Lei San heard this, he didn't say a word, and walked to Jinqi Bank with the silver.

After waiting in line at the door of the bank for an hour, Lei San finally walked to the counter. Although there are 12 counters in the bank, there are so many people who come to exchange money that the tellers in the bank are too busy.

Lei San put a silver bag of more than two hundred taels of silver on the table and said, "I'll change money!" I have one hundred and twenty-five taels of silver in it, which is to blow and pluck the silver of the southern ruthenium. Thirty-five taels is Ding Yin. ”

The teller hurriedly took a sip of tea, nodded at Lei San and said, "Okay, don't worry, merchant, if you have good silver, we will definitely exchange money for you at a premium." ”

Only then did Lei San put his mind at ease, and he watched the teller check the silver.

The best silver in the Ming Dynasty was called "Wenyin" because of the wrinkles on the surface. Silver with poor fineness is called "low silver" or "silver with fine color", which is doped with other metals such as lead. The market is full of silver of all colors, and it is very chaotic. For example, in the twelfth chapter of "Golden Vase Plum", it was mentioned that he borrowed a coin from Ximenqing in a brothel in the usual season, which refers to the difference of 80% silver.

Because the fineness of the silver varies, there are often rip-offs during trading. Therefore, in the process of exchanging silver for banknotes, the Jinqi Bank must verify the fineness of the silver.

The teller first carefully looked at the color of Lei San's one hundred and twenty-five taels of silver and nodded. Then he made a cut in the silver ingot with a steel knife and looked at the stubble. He took out six or seven pieces of silver bread in a row and cut them, and found that they were all the same barefoot silver, and nodded again.

At last he took out seven or eight pieces of silver, went to a table behind the counter, and burned them on the fire. When it was done, the teller looked at the color of the flames, and then at the color of the burned silver, and nodded.

The teller walked back and said with a smile: "Merchant, you are an officer of the Tiger Division, right?" Your one hundred and twenty-five taels of silver is indeed blowing the southern ruthenium, and it can be exchanged for one hundred and thirty-one taels of banknotes. ”

"Your thirty-five taels of silver are also in good condition, and thirty-five taels can be exchanged for thirty-five taels of silver bills."

"Together, these two hundred and thirty taels of silver can be exchanged for two hundred and thirty-six taels of silver."

Hearing the teller's words, Lei San laughed. He happily took the banknote handed by the teller and looked at it carefully. The top of the banknote is stamped with the large seals of the Jinqi Bank and the Shogunate of the Tsukuni Shogunate, and on the right side of the banknote are three rows of words that are too small to be smaller:

"This banknote is a deposit certificate of Jinqi Bank, with which you can take one tael of silver. Whoever forges this banknote will be killed! ”

Lei San smiled and put the banknotes into the silver bag. The Yao family's luxury villa can be bought by yourself!
