Chapter 48 Selling a House

The fat man Yihou moved quickly, and he didn't know if he was afraid that people would rob him of his good deeds, in short, after signing a contract with the county government, Yihou began to arrange for people to tidy up the vacant land behind the county office.

Because the people of this county are busy working in their own greenhouses, and those craftsmen have been sent to build a college by Liu Pang, so in order to be able to recruit enough craftsmen, it took a lot of effort, and even the recruitment notices were posted in the neighboring counties, and the wages were paid in full term.

But even so, it is still stumbling before it can barely start, once the big project and big construction starts, it is not one side that will benefit, but all aspects of the county can benefit.

At least, the people in the county can come out to do some temporary work when they are slack, and those who are willing to contribute can also find a job on the construction site, and they are tired, but the men in the countryside are growing up with hardship, no matter how hard they are tired, as long as they can get money, no one will complain.

Whether it is the school or the twenty villas, the county government has sent people to supervise, of course, these people sent by the county government have no actual power, and they have only one use, that is, to supervise whether the wages of the workers are paid in time, once there is any arrears of wages, no matter how much is in arrears, and no matter the reason, the lord will personally come to the construction site and solve it in person, until the wages are made up, and the whole project can continue to open.

On the fifth day of the construction of the villa, even if the surrounding ground was leveled, not even a single brick was pulled into the construction site, Zhang Jie, the old man who was full of running trains, took his drawings and went to Mengjia Village.

Naturally, I still went to the rich man Meng and slapped my drawings on Old Man Meng's desk, just one sentence, five hundred taels of silver for a villa, do you want to buy it? Buy early, sell short late!

The bearded old man Meng was naturally not easy to fool, so he said: "This small courtyard is also exquisite, but it is more than five hundred taels, for the sake of the county lord who came in person, three hundred taels, it's not that you can't ask for one set!" ”

Three hundred taels, to be honest, is a lot, at least, if you can buy three hundred taels for each set, twenty sets are six thousand taels, and after deducting the two thousand taels that are also thick, you can also make a net profit of four thousand taels, and this transaction is worth it.

However, obviously, this is not the result that Zhang Jie wants, holding the hand of the old man Meng, Zhang Jie began to explain endlessly, from the construction of this house, to the furniture that has never been seen in the house, from the green mountains and green waters outside the yard, to the county seat behind the courtyard, from lively and extraordinary, to quiet and pleasant, in short, Zhang Jie, the old man, talked endlessly for an afternoon.

In the end, even the old man Meng, who has always been good-tempered, couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, Zhang Jie, the old man, was in the eyes of money, and when it was evening, there was really a kind of old man Meng who spent money to buy a stop pinching his nose and admitting it, five hundred taels is five hundred taels, just begging Zhang Jie, the big man, to stop quickly.

When Old Man Meng reluctantly accepted the price of five hundred taels of a small building, and was ready to pay for a look at the house with the money, Zhang Jie, who suddenly quieted down, pondered for a while, and then said: "This house, just behind the county government, there is a guarantee from the county government, and the house will not run away with long legs, what is the hurry?" ”

"This is strange, I have to spend a whole five hundred taels of silver to buy the yard, why can't I see it? You can't tell me you haven't built that house yet, okay? ”

Old man Meng is also a principled person, no one's money is blown by the wind, five hundred taels of silver, but it is really not a small amount, that is, his Meng family is indeed a big family, but the next son takes out five hundred taels of silver, it is still difficult, and he doesn't even know how much hair he loses, just to see the house before buying, this is not an excessive request, right?

However, when Zhang Jie said righteously that the house had not yet been built, the old man Meng who was covering his head really felt a headache.

"Uncle Meng, that is, how many years of friendship we have been here for this trip, I am dissatisfied with you always saying, these houses are absolutely worth the money, five hundred taels of silver, you can buy it, within ten years, these houses will give you a thousand taels, and you will not buy it, I tell you, if it weren't for our relationship, I would never leave this house for you, many people have already begun to book, and my nephew is also difficult to leave this one for you."

The time was already evening, in short, that night, the lights in Old Man Meng's study were not extinguished, and early the next morning, the refreshed Zhang Jie carried five hundred taels of silver tickets in his arms, and then left happily in the send-off of the eldest son of Old Man Meng's family.

As for the old man Meng who was bombarded by Zhang Jie all night, it seems that he is still sick, but it is not a serious illness, but he can't talk about silver with Old Man Meng, if anyone dares to mention silver at this time, the old man will jump up and scold.

No matter how nervous Old Man Meng was, in short, Zhang Jie, who bought the first house, was in a good mood, so he didn't rest along the way, and decided to strike while the iron was hot, and went directly to Zhao Shuang's house.

The Zhao family is not short of money, especially now, don't look at her family took out thousands of taels of silver to build a school, in fact, these money are the money of the entire county people to invest in the greenhouse, ordinary people have an acre of land and a piece of silver, this two silver is pure profit, there is no fancy, as for the big family, it is the pure profit of five taels of silver per acre, this year most of the land in the whole county has been planted with greenhouses, and these greenhouses, for the Zhao family, is silver money.

Therefore, the thousands of taels of silver that built the school are really nothing.

I got up early in the morning from Old Man Meng's house to Zhao's house, and when he passed through Zhangjia Village halfway, Zhang Jie didn't get out of the car, and went directly to Zhaojia Village.

It was Xiaomei who went out to greet her, Zhao Shuang's little maid, but now she can't be called a little maid, Xiaomei is one year older than Zhao Shuang, so she is nineteen years old this year, which is considered a big girl's family, when she came to the door to see Zhang Jie, this girl who has become more and more mature has a soft smile on her face.

"What, do you want to claim to be Zhao Shuang?"

After getting out of the carriage, Zhang Jie came to the girl, and then smiled.

"Hehe, if the lord is willing, it's not impossible to call me Zhao Shuang, anyway, that's what people call me outside!"

The girl named Xiaomei didn't refuse, but responded with a smile.

Shaking his head with a slight wry smile, Zhang Jie didn't want to talk to her little girl about these things, I talked to Old Man Meng all night last night, and now I am really sleepy, I saw Zhao Shuang earlier, and put the second set of yards down earlier, and I can sleep well when I go back!
