Chapter 192 Champion Gong buys a house

(Thanks to "Book Friends Bao is a Little Wealth Fan", "Murong Shanshan", "Yuanyuan" and other relatives for their pink tickets and rewards.) During the National Day, the pink ticket doubled, and today is the beginning of a new month...... The little woman thanked her relatives first...... There is another chapter today, I wish all you a happy holiday! ）

Li Qin's burden of love letters, Jiang Zhixuan still failed to send him after all. No one is here, send a ghost? Originally, Jiang Zhixuan wanted to transfer that burden to that subordinate and give him a few more big money. But then I thought about it and dispelled this idea, first, I didn't know what Li Qin meant, and second, the subordinates of the Wu Mansion were very unhappy to see, Jiang Zhixuan came up in one breath, changed hands and left, and didn't even bother to explain to him......

After handing over the burden to the scholar to put away, Jiang Zhixuan continued to wander around with the scholar servant. It was noon, and it was the golden time for dinner. Thinking of this, Jiang Zhixuan became depressed again, if Zuiyuelou was still there, he could go and eat and drink. Not to mention. The things made by the chef of Zuiyue Building are indeed very distinctive, and even people like Jiang Zhixuan will never forget them after eating them. Thinking like this, Jiang Zhixuan pondered again, since he has such thoughts, maybe there are many people who have the same thoughts as himself......

Since his beloved wife wants to take over Zuiyue Lou to tinker, she must pay attention to the cook. Because of the reputation of Zuiyue Tower, a small half of it was made by the cooks there. Now although Zuiyue Mansion has been seized because of its involvement in the assassination of Empress Jin's eldest grandson, it is ...... with those cooks It shouldn't matter, right? There are few words and my father-in-law happens to be in charge of supervising this case, well, I have to ask my father-in-law when I go back at night, where did the cook of the drunken moon building go. In any case, he should find a way to get those cooks back, otherwise, even if his beloved wife really re-invents Zuiyue Lou in the future, it will only be a false appearance......

The Drunken Moon Tower has temporarily become a thing of the past, but the Five Organs Temple still has to be sacrificed. Jiang Zhixuan casually found a restaurant and took three people in and sat down. There are not so many rules in Jiangfu, and these subordinates who are close to the master can share the table with the master unless they are on a very formal occasion. After sitting down, Jiang Zhixuan remembered the performance of his scholar in front of the Wu Mansion, and couldn't help but be interested, and asked curiously:

"Xiaoshun, have you ever gone to private school?"

Xiaoshun is the scholar in Fangcai, his full name is Xie Xiaoshun, and he is twenty years old. Born with clear eyebrows. And his body is long and well-proportioned, and he can be regarded as a handsome young man. Hearing the master ask, he replied a little shyly:

"Back to the master, the younger one once listened to the private school for two years, and then studied in the Yixue School in Jiangfu for a year, for a total of three years!"

Jiang Zhixuan frowned: "You have been in private school for three years, why don't you stick to it?" If you persist for another year or two, you will be able to take the exam as a student or a showman. If so, wouldn't it be a hundred times better than you are now a scholar for me? ”

Unexpectedly, when he talked about this Xiaoshun, he opened his eyes and laughed:

"That's what the old man said, but the little one didn't plan to do so. In our Huayin, if you can do things in Jiangfu, you don't change it for a showman. Don't hide it from the master, the little one has already worked as an accountant in the chicken farm of our Jiang family farm before. Later, the lady "> let out a word, among all the descendants of the farm, I will choose a scholar and a follower for you, and the little one will sign up! ”

Jiang Zhixuan was even more surprised when he heard that Xiaoshun was already the bookkeeper of the chicken farm:

"Then why did you come here to be a scholar for me? It seems that the salary of my husband in the farm bookkeeper is not lower than that of being a scholar for me, right? Fewer words"

Xiao Shun smiled: "It's not low, but what kind of person are you, sir, the champion of the three yuan, follow you, the little one can learn." Isn't that more nautical miles than doing a bookkeeping office at a chicken farm? Dip your aura again, serve by the master's side for ten or eight years, and the small one goes out, I'm afraid that even the old man can't compare to the small, hehe......"

Jiang Zhixuan first felt amused when he heard this, and then pondered: This Xiaoshun's brain is indeed turning fast, and his vision is also long-term. Indeed, being a scholar for himself, even if he has to leave his hometown now, is no better than working as a bookkeeper on a farm. But in a few years, as he develops step by step, his status will be far higher than that of the bookkeeper on the farm, who keeps a diary day after day......

Such talents should be used well. And it is also in the township, so it is also safe to use. Today is different from the past, Jiang Zhixuan is no longer a lonely person, although a large family business is supported by his beloved wife, it is also necessary for him to cultivate some teams, and don't let his beloved wife worry about everything. Thinking like this, Jiang Zhixuan gently patted Xiaoshun's shoulder:

"Do it well, I will never treat you badly!". As he spoke, he turned to the other two servants: "You are also clear, our Jiang Mansion has never and will never treat the subordinates who work hard in the future!" ”

Several young men nodded with firm eyes, and each secretly said to themselves in their hearts: You must fight hard and make a personal appearance in Jiangfu......

After lunch, Xiaoshun took out the silver and settled the bill. The group continued to look for a house in the West Market, but now it is a peaceful year, and there is no turmoil in the court, and few officials have been dismissed and raided their homes. Therefore, it is not so easy to find a ready-made mansion. It wasn't until it was almost dark that I found a suitable house in Qunxian Fang on the edge of the West Market.

After inquiring, I learned that this was originally the residence of an imperial historian in the court, because in the assassination case of Empress Changsun, he took the lead in standing up and shouting for the crown prince Li Chengqian, and spat at Li Tai, the king of Wei, and was dismissed and exiled. This house was vacant in this way, because it was located on the edge of the West Market, very close to the gathering place of Hu merchants next to it, so no one was interested, and no one was willing to buy it for three or four months.

When I asked the price, it was only 6,000 yuan, and all the furniture in the house was included. This is already a very cheap price, Jiang Zhixuan is a little moved. Of course, the price is only one aspect, the most important thing is that he actually likes the location of this house.

Behind this house, there is a square that is the most famous gathering place for Hu merchants in Chang'an, Beijing, and many Hu merchant shops have opened, such as Persian Mansion, Dashi Jewelry Store, Silla Warehouse, Goryeo Wine Store, etc. Living in such a place, once the beloved wife has leisure, she can casually go to the back of the house. She's going to love it.

Another thing is that although this place is located on the edge of the West Market, it is not far from the straight line distance of the Zuiyue Tower. The carriage can be reached in half an hour, and even on foot, it will take no more than half an hour, which must be a very good place for a beloved wife......

Since the price and location are exciting, Jiang Zhixuan naturally wants to go in and have a look. From the outside, this house is still very good. The age of completion is not too long, according to Jiang Zhixuan's estimate, it will only be seven or eight years at most. And it seems that the previous owner also cherished it very much. The main gate and all the pillared walls seem to be newly painted every year, so they still look very fresh and shiny.

Staying in this house was an old man from the unlucky Yushi family, who had been alone in this ghost place for four or five months, and was already about to go crazy. Now that someone is finally interested in this house, isn't it overjoyed? Hearing that this patron wanted to go in and have a look, he hurriedly opened the door and invited Jiang Zhixuan to enter.

Because the house has been uninhabited for four or five months, it has been covered with dust and cobwebs, which is simply a fight with Zuiyue Building, which shows that the old guy in front of him is not a conscientious person. However, despite these, it did not prevent Jiang Zhixuan's growing love for this house. This is a typical official house, with a main entrance, a side door, the entrance is a spacious bluestone courtyard dam, the left and right sides of the courtyard dam are two rows of four transept rooms; On the top of the six stone steps facing the main gate is a spacious main hall, and on both sides of the main hall are side rooms for the host and guest to rest.

Behind the wing room on the right, there is a zigzag cobblestone corridor about ten feet long, which extends all the way to the backyard. Jiang Zhixuan was walking on this corridor at this time, and he had already seen the main hall, in fact, the architectural styles of this era were like this, and there was nothing to see. He cares about the backyard, because the backyard is generally a place where the family lives, if the environment in the backyard is not good, so that his beloved wife is uncomfortable, then this house ............ Don't!

The corridor branched off at the back of the main hall, straight through the back of the main hall to the courtyard wall, and then turned and extended to the back yard, parallel to the corridor on the right. Sandwiched between the two corridors is a small artificial lake, about two acres in size. There are lotus flowers and narcissus planted in the lake, and it is the season when the lotus seeds are ripe, and many lotus pods have dried up, but no one has gone to pick them up, which makes Jiang Zhixuan feel very distressed......

After walking more than ten feet away, I went down the corridor to the backyard. The yard dam in the backyard is also paved with bluestone flooring. Under the courtyard walls on the left and right, there is a small flower garden. Because no one has pruned for four or five months, there are already a lot of weeds growing in the flower beds. The edge of the dam is close to the artificial lake outside, and there are two small horses on the side, which seem to be used for fishing. Jiang Zhixuan poked his head out to take a look, and sure enough, he saw a lot of small holes at the edge. It was a small hole for inserting a fishing rod, and he teased happily in his heart: It seems that this master used to enjoy it......

The house in the backyard is fresher than the main hall in the front yard, and the colors of the pillars and walls are quite comfortable. However, the window lattice was painted black, which made Jiang Zhixuan's brows furrow slightly: My beloved wife likes white window lattices, but it doesn't matter, anyway, if you really want to live in, this place will definitely need to be renovated, and it will be repainted when the time comes, which is not a big problem!

There are eighteen rooms in the backyard, and in addition to a master room, there are three well-appointed guest rooms and a study. The rest are the subordinate's lodging rooms and bathrooms, utility rooms, storage rooms, and so on.

Across the backyard, there is a small garden, about three or four acres in size. A cobblestone path divides the small boxy garden in the middle. As it reaches the middle, the trail spreads out from side to side, forming a "T" shape on both sides. On the left side of the garden is the lawn, and in the middle there is a small pavilion with stone benches; On the right, there are a lot of flowers and trees, although they are not precious varieties, but they are evergreen in all seasons. Through the dense branches of flowers and trees, a small thatched house can be faintly seen. This made Jiang Zhixuan quite happy, in winter, he and his beloved wife warmed a pot of wine in this small thatched house, baked the stove, stepped on the snow and listened to the plums, it should be very comfortable, hehe......

The entire house may occupy an area of about eight to ten acres. In this era, the small ones are a little shabby. But for Jiang Zhixuan and the little couple, they are big enough, so big that they even seem a little empty. After all, for a long time in the future, only their husband and wife will be here with three ...... Belch...... Or more children living here. Even if you add more than ten or twenty servants, there are only about twenty people in total. If it's bigger, it's not beautiful if it's too empty.

"Uncle, I'm going to buy this house, let's talk about the price, right? "Since everything is very good, it's time to talk about the specifics." It's impossible for people to give as much as they want, right? Although Jiang Zhixuan is a scholar, he has been the leader of the royal farm for so long, and he is quite familiar with the process of bargaining!

The old man who guarded the door secretly said in his heart: It turns out that he is still an expert! put away the painful thought, smacked his lips and said:

"Don't hide it from the guests, my lord instructed before leaving, this house has cost him his life's savings, and it has only been completed for seven years. If the guest really wants to, please let him suffer less losses and return the money for the construction of the house......"

"How much did it cost you to build this house?" Jiang Zhixuan stared at Menzi's eyes tightly.

The manzi's eyes flickered, and finally reported a number: "The specifics, the old man doesn't know." But the bottom line for the old man when he left was...... Cannot be less than ...... 5,500 ......"

Jiang Zhixuan thought for a while in his heart: This sect reported this number, and it would not be too much. However, this is certainly not the real bottom line. Thinking like this, Jiang Zhixuan slowly opened his mouth:

"Uncle, I won't tell you anything, I have just entered Beijing as an official. It's really tight on your hands, do you think it's good? I can only sell 5,000 yuan at most for this house, but you have been waiting here for four or five months, uncle, and it is really hard. I'll give you another hundred pieces privately, and count it as your hard-earned money, okay? ”

A burst of surprise flashed in the eyes of that manzi, although this house can actually be worth at least seven or eight thousand, and his master did say the bottom line of five thousand and five hundred. It's just that three or four months have passed, and the house has not been sold. And the old man of his family was charged to the army, and he urgently needed some silver. So I already talked a little bit a month ago, if it really doesn't work, it's okay to reduce it by a few hundred percent. Now that the guest in front of him is willing to pay 5,000 yuan, he will definitely be able to deal with his master. In addition, he can still get a hundred benefits from it, how can there be any reason not to agree:

"Is this true?"

"Of course, Xiaoshun, give this old man a deposit of fifty yuan, and we will come over tomorrow and pay the money with one hand and the deed with the other......"
