Chapter 42: Choosing a House (2nd Watch)
When the steward saw the three of them coming out, he immediately went over to ask what they needed, and as soon as he heard that Chongjin was going to look at the yards everywhere, he immediately arranged for a carriage to send them over, and the service was extremely considerate.
The three houses selected by Chongjin are located slightly away from the city center, but the environment is very nice and quiet.
Sitting in the car, there were outsiders, Chongjin rarely spoke, only sat quietly, the man saw that Chongjin had been looking out the window, so he had to chat with Feng Yinchen. Feng Yinchen politely responded.
"I don't know what Brother Tai is called?" Feng Yinchen asked.
"It doesn't matter what I'm called, I'm just a miscellaneous person anyway." The man replied casually with his hands on the wall of the car with his pillows in his hands.
"Then there should always be a name, and it will inevitably trouble Brother Tai in the future." Feng Yinchen picked up Chongjin's hand and rubbed it, it felt very good.
"Then call me Qian San! If you want to find me in the future, you can report this name at the front desk. ”
Hearing this name, Chong Jin, who had been looking out the window, turned his head and glanced at him thoughtfully, and asked, "What is the relationship between you and Qian Jin?" Feng Yinchen moved his gaze from Chongjin's hand to his face, a little unhappy, so interested in this person?
When Qian San heard Chongjin's words, the expression on his face changed suddenly, but it didn't take long for him to return to his cynical appearance just now and said, "Both surnames are Qian, just such a relationship." ”
Chongjin obviously saw the shadow of that person on his face, so he asked about his relationship with Qian Jin, but he didn't expect the other party to deny it. He stopped talking and continued to look out the window.
Qian San glanced at Chongjin lazily a few times, and he really didn't know such a person, when would he be happy, go back and ask him Lao Tzu. I don't know what the hell I'm doing when I throw myself in such a place where birds don't.
After a while, they arrived at the first house, which was a three-entry house, not very large, but fully functional, with everything that should be available, but the overall building looked too dark in color, giving people a very oppressive feeling. Entering the far gate is a rockery, with a winding man-made river, which runs through the entire courtyard. The plants in the yard are mainly bamboo, which is lush and green.
Chongjin walked around every courtyard and room, and Qian San was waiting for them at the door.
I wasn't very satisfied with this yard, and Chongjin didn't go out for long.
Then I went to the two remaining mansions again. Finally, this house has a bit of Jiangnan style, with white walls and gray tiles, which gives people a fresh and pleasant feeling when they enter the eye. Before the gate, Chongjin believed that Jiang Yue'er would definitely like it here. After the entrance, there is a light wall, with a small courtyard on the right and the main courtyard on the left. The main courtyard is very large, facing the south side is the reception hall, on both sides are several courtyards and corridors, and the overall style is also a continuation of the fresh style of Jiangnan.
Before he reached the backyard, Chongjin decided to buy this house.
There is a small building in the backyard of this mansion, and Chongjin did not notice that there were two people standing on it at the moment, it was the owner of the Drunken Immortal Building and a person dressed as a guard.
"Your Royal Highness......" As soon as the guard shouted, he received an eye knife from the owner of the Drunken Immortal Building, and the guard hurriedly changed his words, "I'm sorry, shopkeeper." Isn't that person in a wheelchair Feng Yinchen, the second son of the Feng family? ”
"Well, it's a pity that such a peerless genius is actually a wasted person. Tracing the trace, you look at the woman pushing the wheelchair, I always feel a little familiar. ”
"I haven't seen this woman, so I don't know which lady it is."
"If they want to buy this house, then give them a favor, and tell the people in the underground market to sell it cheaply. Also, you send someone to keep an eye on them and see what they are doing in Yecheng. The Feng family is too powerful, and we have to take some precautions in advance. ”
"Yes, shopkeeper."
Chongjin walked back to the door to look for Qian San, "Is this yard yours?" ”
Qian San was lying on the stone bench at the door, holding a dog's tail grass in his mouth, and said with a snort: "How can it, although I like money, this house is not mine, I am just a middleman." I said that I was a miscellaneous person. ”
"I have a fancy for this house, but I will bring my friends over to see it in two days, can I pay the money when I am satisfied?"
Hearing this, Qian San got up and spit out the dog's tail grass in his mouth, and smiled on his face: "Don't, since you look at it, you have to start early, in case someone else takes the lead, it won't be good, to tell you the truth, there are many people who fancy this house, after today, I can't guarantee that it is still here waiting for you to buy it!" Look at the master next to you, look at your outfit, no matter how you look at it, you are a rich man, and the money to buy this house must be a drop in the bucket for the two of you! As the saying goes, the first strike is stronger, and then the first strike suffers! ”
If the three of them are hanging in the river, they can really say it, but Chongjin ignored it and went out directly. Fu remembered that Feng Yinchen was thrown in the courtyard by himself, so he raised his feet and entered the door to push Feng Yinchen out. I never thought that Feng Yinchen had already negotiated with Qian San inside, and paid a deposit of 1,000 taels of gold and silver tickets.
There was a smile between the three eyebrows and eyes, and he pushed Feng Yinchen out of the door.
"Jiang Yue'er hasn't seen it yet, why did she pay the deposit so hastily?" Chongjin asked with a frown.
Feng Yinchen stretched out his hand and stroked Chongjin's frowning brow and said, "It's just a mansion, and it's not a big mansion." If you buy it, you buy it, if Jiang Yue'er doesn't like it, then I will buy it for you, I think you like it tightly. ”
For Feng Yinchen's gentle offensive, Chongjin has never been very accustomed to it. After staying in the Soul Tower for so many years, there are few people who really care about her except Jiang Yue'er. The eldest master and the second master can't be by her side all the time, and the sinister environment has finally created her independent and cold character. Now that people are so spoiled all the time, a heart is always pounding.
Seeing Chongjin's rare appearance of a little daughter at this age, Feng Yinchen smiled heartily, and the two of them went back to the clothing store at the city gate together.
After entering the store, Feng Yinchen pulled Chongjin to walk around inside, and went out again, but the two did not change into the clothes they had when they came back.
Feng Yinchen made a "shhh" gesture to Chong Jin, and Chong Jin quickly pushed Feng Yinchen into an alley next to him. At the back door of the clothing store, Chongjin used light skills to float in with the wind and dust. After entering, the two of them stuck behind the door and listened to the movement outside.
The people who were following Feng Yinchen and Chongjin outside the door turned to the alley and didn't see a figure, so they stuck to the door from the outside and listened to the sound, but didn't hear anything, and listened to the sound on the door elsewhere, and finally chased them out into the depths of the alley.
"Who is it?" Chongjin asked.
"I don't know, since I came out of the underground exchange, he has been following us. It could be someone who is targeting. Let's hurry up and change our clothes and go back to the Soul Tower! Feng Yinchen vaguely felt that things were not so simple. I have to find Xiaonan and Xiaobei to investigate who they are.
