"Dad, if that's the case, how can this mansion still survive until now?"

It is impossible for the father and son of the Qin family to fully know the ins and outs of the incident, so what Qin Tu's father described to Qin Yong was just some information he heard from the middleman.

Obviously, the middleman would never sue him that the price of the house was far more than the actual value. He just said that the origin of this house is very unusual, because this was originally the mansion of the second-rank master of the dynasty. And such a mansion, in normal times, ordinary people are absolutely not allowed to move in. However, now, the Son of Heaven has personally decreed that the official residence of this second-grade master will be sold to the outside world, isn't that a golden opportunity?

"Hehe, that's because the people in this Bianliang City don't have the vision of a father!"

When Butcher Qin heard this, he said proudly.

"Ugh!"

Qin Yong was speechless. Is this really the case? That's certainly impossible.

In fact, the house has survived to the present day. The main reason is actually because the new head of the household department doesn't know how to do business at all. Of course, it could also be because he doesn't bother to do it.

Because in his opinion, the fact that this house is going to be sold to the outside world is well known to everyone in the court. So, next, he just needs to sit firmly at home and wait for the buyer to come to the door.

But I didn't expect that although the princes and ministers in the court knew about this matter, no one was willing to help him "oblige" publicity, and no one would think of using their own money to buy this mansion.

Because, the price of this house is far more than the actual value. It's about 5,000 taels of silver to build. But now it has been sold for more than 50,000 taels. In addition, the princes and ministers of this dynasty actually have residences given by the emperor, and these mansions can be used as temporary residences for officials below the second rank. And officials above the second grade, it will become a permanent residence!

As long as you don't commit any "Tianda" crimes such as collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, plotting to disperse the throne, the emperor of this house will generally not take it back. Of course, the emperor usually just gives you this set of mansions, in the future. No matter if you are promoted, change positions, or return to your hometown, in fact, you will not be given a second mansion.

It is precisely because everyone owns the mansion given by the emperor that those palace ministers who have reached the second rank or above will not buy this set of mansions with the same regulations. As for those officials whose official positions have not yet reached the second grade or above, they are embarrassed to buy them. Don't dare to buy it.

Because, although these officials of the Great Zhou Dynasty of theirs have a lot of money every year, they have not reached the level where they can accumulate 50,000 taels of silver in a short period of time. In fact, the sum of the lifetime income of the Great Zhou officials below the second grade may not be 10,000 taels of silver, and this era is not the era of soaring prices in later generations.

In fact, in this day and age. The so-called real money and silver are quite valuable, so most of the coins used by the people in their daily lives are just copper coins, and the purchasing power of this copper coin is already equivalent to two yuan in later generations, and a thousand copper coins are equivalent to one tael of silver.

Therefore, the officials of the Great Zhou court, although their annual income is only tens of taels to hundreds of taels. But in fact, it is already equivalent to hundreds of thousands or even millions of annual salaries in later generations. So, that's definitely a high salary.

However, even so, it was a figure of fifty thousand taels. It's a little too far off. Therefore, it is impossible for them to pay for this house, because if they do, it means that their income is saving.

Of course, this is not a secret thing, although most of the officials in the Great Zhou Dynasty are scholarly and angry, but sometimes it is inevitable that there will be some gray income, such as transit interception, merchant gifts, etc.

These situations were all informed by the Son of Heaven of the Great Zhou and the auxiliary ministers in power. However, knowing does not mean that they must do it, because the basic national policy of their Great Zhou Dynasty stipulates that "the punishment cannot be done by the doctor", so as long as what they do does not have any great consequences for the country and the court, they will generally choose to turn a blind eye and close one eye.

And those officials of the Great Zhou can be regarded as relatively self-disciplined, although they occasionally accept a little filial piety from others, but they generally only choose those who are irrelevant. After all, they were all born in the Shilin world, and this scholarly business will inevitably look down on yellow and white things, if it weren't for the basic expenses of their family members and family, they might as well not accept this little bribe, so as not to tarnish their reputation!

"Alright! Dad, since you decided to buy it, then I have no opinion. However, in terms of this handover, it is best to be prepared and try to correct all those places that are out of line, so as not to cause trouble in the future! ”

Qin Yong looked at Butcher Qin's elated appearance, he was really embarrassed to splash cold water on him.

Anyway, in his opinion, although this house is expensive, it is not completely unreasonable. Look, where is the city where it is located? That is Bianliang City, the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty! And the location where it is located, it is also the best in Bianliang City, it is completely attached to the palace, plus the neighbors around it, but it is basically all the princes and ministers of the dynasty, which according to later generations is, this is a proper high-level community! That's not something money can measure at all.

Of course, such a community, if it is placed in the society of later generations, the value will definitely be higher. The land price alone may have to jump from 100,000 per square meter, right? And according to the calculation of the current house with an area of about 10,000 square meters, it is already more than one billion yuan, so how can it be bought at a price of about 100 million yuan for 5,000 taels of gold in front of you?

So, if you think about it from this point of view, this house is actually quite worthwhile. Moreover, Qin Yong didn't care if he couldn't earn it back if he spent it, it was actually impossible. Because, as long as he is willing, he can fiddle with something that is not available in this era at any time, so it should not be difficult to earn this money back in the end. Moreover, don't forget jì, his father Qin Butcher, that is not an idle person, he was able to make himself from poor to rich in Yangzhou in the past ten years, can't he earn back the money he spent now?
