After the matter was explained, Xiao Jiading was about to get up and go out, but Dai Zhutou stopped him again: "Big brother, I heard that you want to buy a house, right?" ”

Xiao Jiading looked at him with a smile, mumbled, and nodded.

"I know a guy who is about to sell his house, and because he is in a hurry to use the money, the asking price is very low. Big brother, are you going to take a look? ”

Xiao Jiading knew that the asking price was very low, but he was afraid that it would be the same as the cousin of the Nalu scribe, and it would be almost a free gift. He still followed the previous train of thought, but he should speak tactfully to this head catcher, not too much, because he must be required to cooperate at work, so he patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Brother, I know that you mean well, thank you!" We're here for a long time, and there must be things to help each other, and if there's anything you need me to help with, just say, I'll do my best. As for this house, to put it mildly, I don't dare to touch this kind of money, your brother can't make me make mistakes! Ha lu haha. ”

These words made Dai Zhutou's face blush and his heart beat, and he was moved, and he agreed with Ha Luha, and said that he didn't dare.

Scattered.

Xiao Jiading had just come out of the signing room, and he saw two people, one was Zhu Haiyin, the young master of Kuo, and the other was the Lu scribe who wanted to sell the house to Xiao Jiading at a low price.

Xiao Jiading pretended not to see the appearance of Scribe Lu, and walked towards Zhu Haiyin.

Zhu Haiyin smiled all over his face and said, "Big brother, let's go to dinner first, and then go to the Jade Building, right?" ”

Xiao Jiading smiled bitterly: "I've been drinking for a few days in a row, I'm too tired, so my body can't stand it, so I won't go to rest today." ”

"Then the eldest brother also has to eat, let's go to eat and not drink, how about it?"

"Okay." Xiao Jiading followed Zhu Haiyin out, and the Nalu scribe hurriedly caught up with them and stopped Xiao Jiading.

When Zhu Haiyin saw this Lu scribe, he knew that he had something, and said to Xiao Jiading: "I'll wait for you at the yamen." ”

After Zhu Haiyin left, the Nalu scribe asked Xiao Jiading in a low voice how he was thinking? If it's too expensive, you can drop it two more times, as long as eight dollars.

Xiao Jiading felt that it was better to put it bluntly, otherwise it would be endless to be so vague. At that moment, he said: "Thank you very much, I know that you have given me benefits, but I can't accept it." Moreover, I don't plan to buy a house for the time being, and I'll talk about it later. ”

Clerk Lu was a little embarrassed and said, "My cousin is really in a hurry to sell the house." It's not meant to be a gift, hehe......"

Xiao Jiading glanced at him, arched his hands, and walked outside the yamen. As soon as he walked to the corner gate of the second hall, a person seemed to be waiting there and came out of the corner gate, and when he saw Xiao Jiading, he greeted him with a smile, and said with a smile: "Xiao Zhiyi!" ”

This person is Huang Dong, the father of the so-called No. 1 talented woman in Yizhou, Huang Dong, the recorder of the Yamen. The record is equivalent to the chief of the secretarial section of the county government office.

Last time, when County Lieutenant Deng took Xiao Jiading to meet everywhere, he had seen this Huang Dong, but there were many people at that time, so he didn't speak. Now he is waiting for himself here, obviously, he knows about the matter between his daughter and himself, but he is afraid that like Tang Xian in the morning, he has come to apologize.

Xiao Jiading arched his hand lightly and said, "Huang Lushi." Is there something wrong? ”

"There's nothing to do, there's nothing to do, hehe, I don't know if Xiao Zhiyi is free, I'm thinking about it, it's like this, I heard that Zhiyi wants to buy a house?"

"Nothing." Xiao Jiading denied it, he had already guessed that this Huang Lushi was the same as Lu Xiangzheng and Dai Zhutou, who wanted to bribe himself by selling the house at a low price, so he was too lazy to talk to him.

Huang Lushi was stunned for a moment, obviously Xiao Jiading's words were a little beyond his preparation, but, after all, he was a person who had been in the yamen for many years, and he had never encountered any kind of situation. Immediately, he bowed down and said: "My subordinates are handling a resale of land purchased by the yamen of this county, and the land is very cheap, so I think I may be interested in holding clothes." So take the liberty of asking......"

Xiao Jiading's heart moved, wasn't he about to grow chili peppers to make a lot of money? If there is really a large piece of land, and it is very cheap, wouldn't the land for growing chili peppers be solved? If you really want to sleep, someone will send a pillow! Then he didn't move and asked, "Oh?" What kind of land? ”

"That's the case, our county government was originally preparing to build a academy, the land has been bought, and when it was about to be built, the government government said that they were also preparing to build a new academy, and there was no need to build two academies in Yizhou. They have bought all the land. The Kang County Decree agreed to the proposal of the state and county to run a school together, so that the land bought by the county government needed to be sold. This piece of land was bought by the Yamen and was cheap. Many people want to buy it, and I happened to see Xiao Zhiyi, so I asked casually, I wonder if Lu Dao Zhiyi is interested? ”

While agreeing with the little old boy's ability to change without being surprised, Xiao Jiading couldn't help but move in his heart, since it is the land that is ready to build the academy, then the land occupied by this land must be very large, which is in line with his own hopes. His heart was beating wildly, but his face was still faint, and he said: "If the land is very cheap, how can it fall into my hands, didn't others buy it a long time ago?" ”

Huang Lushi said: "Yes, yes, many people are greedy for this land, and now, I am in charge of the registration of all those who want to buy this fast land, and finally decide who to sell it to after submitting it to Kang County." If Xiao Jiading wants to buy it, he can help in the future. ”

"Oh? How can it help? ”

Huang Lushi smiled slightly: "This is not the place to speak, can you please move the clothes to the cold house, and the thin wine has been prepared below, let's eat and discuss, how about it?" ”

Xiao Jiading was very disgusted with Huang Lushi's daughter Huang Shiyun, and really didn't want to go to his house, but it was said to be very cheap in front of him, and he wanted to get it very much, so he still endured the nausea and went with him, so he squatted next to a toad.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jiading arched his hand and said: "Since Huang Lu is very loving, if Xiao refuses to resign, it will be too unkind." ”

Huang Lushi raised his eyebrows and arched his hand: "This is very good, please!" The Humble House is on the left, within walking distance. ”

Xiao Jiading followed Huang Lushi to the yamen, Zhu Haiyin was waiting there, Xiao Jiading said: "I have something to do at night, so I won't go." Go on your own. ”

When Zhu Haiyin saw that he was with Huang Lushi, he knew that this Huang Lushi might have invited a treat, so he left and left.

Huang Lushi said: "It's still early, why don't we go and see the land first, it's nearby, and you can get there by walking." ”

"Okay."

The land is located on the bustling main street, but a high wall has been built to enclose the whole land, which will serve as the wall of the academy in the future. So it's not a simple wall, it's a blue brick and blue tile, very tall and sturdy. There was an old man at the door who was the porter, and when he saw Huang Lushi coming, he nodded and bowed busily.

Huang Lushi didn't look at him, and led Xiao Jiading into the courtyard.

Xiao Jiading looked at it and couldn't help but gasp, it's so wide! The site had been leveled, and the roofs of other houses outside the fence in the distance were just the size of a small black dot. If you plant chili peppers in such a big place, it would be so cool.

Huang Lushi said in a low voice: "This piece of land covers a very wide area, if Xiao Zhiyi doesn't want to build such a big mansion, he can sell the other land." ”

Xiao Jiading thought to himself, if he could really get this piece of land, he would use a small part to repair the house, and the rest would be planted with chili peppers! You can also build shops on the street for rent, how can you still sell them?

Xiao Jiading said: "This land is very good, I'm afraid it won't fall into my hands." ”

"We'll talk about this later."

The two came out and walked to Huang Lushi's house. His house is on the other side of the yamen, and when he arrives at the door, it is a large mansion, which is much larger than Du Erniu's house in terms of scale. It seems that this record surnamed Huang has made a lot of money.

Huang Lushi said to the porter: "Hurry up, tell Mrs. and Miss, just say that Xiao Zhiyi has arrived, let them hurry up and return to the doorman." ”

The porter hurriedly agreed, and went quickly.

Huang Lushi accompanied Xiao Jiading to the living room and sat down, and the servant served cakes, bait, snacks and water. At this moment, I heard a few women coming in from outside, in addition to the maid, a middle-aged woman led by Huang Lushi was Huang Lushi's wife, and the other was the so-called No. 1 talented woman in Yizhou, Huang Shiyun.

Huang Shiyun lowered her head, her pretty face was pale, her delicate body trembled slightly, and she hid behind her mother.

When Huang Lushi saw his daughter, his face immediately became gloomy, and he said angrily: "You rebel! I can't come to make amends to Xiao Zhiyi! ”

Huang Shiyun sighed, stepped forward, Fuli, before he could speak, Huang Lushi had already roared: "Kneel!" ”

Huang Shiyun knelt in front of Xiao Jiading with a grunt, cried profusely, and sobbed intermittently: "I'm sorry ......, I'm sorry......"

Xiao Jiading needs that piece of land now, so he doesn't want to make Huang Lushi lose face too much. In this world, there are no eternal friends and no eternal enemies. To be forgiving and forgiving is also the principle of Xiao Jiading's life.

Therefore, Xiao Jiading immediately showed a look of surprise and looked at Huang Lushi: "What is this for?" Hurry up, please! If you have something to say, you can talk about it. ”

Huang Shiyun saw that her father didn't speak, so she naturally didn't dare to get up, and continued to kneel there and cry.

Huang Lushi said: "Xiao Zhiyi, the little girl has no form, I offended you, after I heard about it, I was very angry, I was all in the godson and there was no way, come to someone, take the family law!" ”

A few servants brought a whip, and Huang Shiyun was so frightened that she knelt on the ground all of a sudden. Her mother rushed over and hugged her daughter, crying and pleading.

Huang Lushi blushed, snatched the whip, and said angrily: "Get out!" ”

His wife was still holding her daughter, crying and shaking her head.

Huang Lushi raised the whip and was about to whip it, but Xiao Jiading hurriedly got up to stop it, and said, "Huang Lushi, I didn't have a little misunderstanding with Ling Yan, it's nothing." If you make such a fuss, then I'll have to go! ”

After that, he snatched the whip from Huang Lushi's hand and handed it to the servant next to him.
