"Guest, what do you want to order?"

Xue Manzi patted his chest and sat on the opposite side of Qi Mountain with a big grin.

It stands to reason that he was very rude in doing this.

Especially in the Song Dynasty, where etiquette was strict, if you meet a real scholar, or even a real landlord and squire, and see Xue Manzi's behavior, I am afraid that I will not even want to talk to him, and I will directly ask people to blow him out.

Qi Shan didn't care.

After crossing so many planes, it can be seen that a shopkeeper who opens a teahouse can have a relationship with such a person, and he must have his own uniqueness.

Don't look at the shopkeeper's laughter and scolding just now, in fact, it is clear and depreciating.

He gave Xue Manzi an endorsement of his credibility.

Besides, from the afterlife, it is normal to treat each other as equals. Qi Shan is also unwilling to distinguish between superior and inferior in formalism.

It's still good to sit across from each other and talk about business seriously.

"How so? I came to Luzhou City to play, and found that this place is good, so I want to stay for a while, in fact, I can't say how long I stay, more than half a year, less than three months.

So I think, just around here, just buy a small courtyard in this Luzhou city, two entrances can be, and it is best to be lively nearby. It would be better if it was closer to this medicine house! Price is not an issue. ”

Xue Manzi thought for a while, slapped the table and said.

"Don't say it, there is really one, west of the city to the north, there is a cairen alley, where there is a small courtyard with two entrances, which was originally the property of a wealthy merchant in the south of the Yangtze River, and later he went to Guangxi to do the medicinal material business, so he hung this courtyard.

After all, he is a Jiangnan person, and he has high requirements for the environment, in order to repair the small garden, he spent a lot of silver before and after, and the furniture inside is also exquisite.

It's just that he is particular about it, and the price is not low, so I have been pressing it on my hand for nearly a year, and I haven't gone out.

Everything in it is ready-made, you only need to buy two maids, fill it with some home-style bedding or something, and you can move in. ”

"Oh, that's not bad to hear you say! What about the others? ”

Xue Manzi said: "You just came, you may not know very well, there is a Qingtian medicine house in the alley, it is very famous, Mrs. Bao's medical skills are a must in Luzhou City, even if the government is in trouble, it is mostly to ask Mrs. Bao to help."

He has a son named Bao Zheng, who looks like black charcoal, but his brain is smart, a few years ago, he heard that the teacher of the academy went to the medicine house to inspect the black charcoal, and found that he was very smart, and then authorized him to enter the academy to study, and now he is a classmate with the son of the county master.

Everyone said that the black charcoal head would definitely become an official in the future.

Therefore, in Cairen Hutong, people of all sizes are a little more harmonious than a few years ago. Moreover, the soldiers who patrol the night of the government will often patrol the alleys at night, and they dare not approach at all.

To the west of the alley, there is the vegetable market, and to the east is the shop street. Ordinary people may have to consider the issue of income, but for you, son, it shouldn't be a problem. ”

Qi Shan nodded: "Then go and have a look!" ”

"Okay, Xue Manzi, I'll take Gongzi to take you to take a look."

Xue Manzi stood up, patted his chest very confidently, and promised: "I tell you, this yard is really nothing, if it weren't for the lack of money, I would take this yard down myself, so that I wouldn't be cheaper than others, this is you, for another person, I am reluctant to take out this yard!" ”

Yo, it seems that he is really a businessman, don't look at the rude appearance, this is a set of words, and it really can't be underestimated.

Businessmen these years have a little bit of goods in their stomachs.

It may be that seeing that Qi Shan really has a mind, Xue Manzi is even more attentive when he serves him.

There was a guy in the back who led out Qishan's white-hoofed little donkey.

Xue Manzi helped Qi Shan to sit up, and led the way with the reins himself.

This kid is thin, but he is quite tall, so his legs are long, and he walks like the wind.

The little donkey followed him closely, and in a quarter of an hour, the two of them came to Cairen Hutong.

The second house in the alley, the big red door with vermilion lacquer, and a plaque made of nanmu is hung on it.

The courtyard wall is not high, but it has the flavor of the south of the Yangtze River, and the ears of the Hui architectural characteristics are also made to look similar, in the eyes of Qi Shan, it is quite fresh.

Xue Manzi took out a bunch of keys from his crotch, didn't use his eyes to identify them, sniffed with his nose, and directly took out one of them, and opened the lock with a click.

The corners of Qi Shan's eyes twitched.

What the hell is this? Sweaty?

Isn't this a trick used in gambling to change cards?

Thinking in his heart, Qi Shan also asked.

"Looks like you still like to gamble on two hands?"

"Yo, let Lang Jun see it. That's all I have as little a hobby. ”

Xue Manzi pushed open the door and led Qi Shan's little donkey in.

"Actually, it's not bad for me, I should blame my father, who told him to set up his home opposite the casino when he was young.

He is busy every day, not at home all day long, when I was young, it was fine, squatting at the door every day to watch the gamblers gambling money, and after a long time, I knew what was going on here. ”

Xue Manzi suddenly lowered his voice, and said mysteriously: "Actually, I won't tell you, if it weren't for my daughter-in-law watching closely, the casinos in Luzhou City would have been swept away a long time ago." Hahaha. ”

The two men walked in through the gate, bypassed the shadow wall, and suddenly opened up in front of them.

Xue Manzi seemed to be a little proud, and introduced loudly: "Lang Jun, look at it, how delicate this yard is, the ground is paved with green bricks, look at this gap, all of them are stuck with glutinous rice water and children's green feces, even if it rains hard, it can't be washed away."

The wall is one foot six feet high, more than half the wall of the neighbor's house, look at the creeper on it, it has been raised for some years. ”

With Xue Manzi's introduction, Qi Shan looked left and right.

The courtyard wall is indeed well repaired, the rules are neat, there are some colors, it looks a little bit of Jiangnan charm, there are two large fish tanks on the left and right of the yard, which should have been buried in the ground, and now it is placed on the ground, it looks a little interesting.

There are two lotus pots piled up at the door, I don't know if it's the wrong season, or if it has not been taken care of for a long time, it has shrunk away, and there are no lotus flowers on it except for a few shriveled lotus leaves.

There are two large trees in the yard, which should be apricot trees.

The branches are luxuriant, more than three feet high, and one person hugs the thickness.

There are rattan chairs under the tree, and there are stone tables and stone benches.

In the other corner of the courtyard there was also a gazebo, made of bamboo, three feet high above the ground, although simple but not simple.

There were a few bird's nests in the trees, and Qi Shan looked at them, all of them were sparrows.

"This is the front yard, you go in with me, the donkey is here, the horse is in the backyard, it has been deserted for a while, and there is no forage, so let's go!"

"Okay!"

With a simple answer, Qi Shan turned over and dismounted.

Are you still afraid that the little donkey will be lost? Joke.

The main hall is not very large, which means that. The front and back are ventilated, the screen is blocked, and there are several sets of Taishi chairs, which are also similar there.

Passing through the main hall, this is the real courtyard.

There are five rooms in the front, left and right east and west wings, east and west ear rooms, east and west courtyard kitchens, and west courtyard thatched houses.

There is a small garden at the back, which is not big, that is, a few points, and some flowers and vegetables are planted in the common styles of Jiangnan.

It's lush, but no one takes care of it, and weeds are a bunch of them.

The stable in the southeast corner of the backyard, and the firewood house is also piled up here.

There's a back door here that leads directly to the back alley.

After following Xue Manzi and looking around, Qi Shan was more satisfied.

Although it is a small yard, the house in the second hall covers an area of more than two acres, nearly three acres.

Although Xue Manzi kept saying that the cultivation here was exquisite and lovely.

Actually, that's exactly what happened.

Compared to the previous plane, the mansions that Qi Shan got in Bingcheng are really not comparable.

However, it is good to come back and live for a while.

The two of them returned to the front yard of the main hall, sat on the stone bench, and Qi Shan clapped his hands and said, "Just this courtyard, I want it!" Say a price. ”

Xue Manzi was very happy and said: "Lang Jun, you are a cheerful person, I Xue Manzi can't grind, that is not to give you face, I will say a price, it is definitely sincere, I finished quoting the price, if you say a word is not worth it, Xue Manzi kneels on the ground and kowtows to you, I am sorry for you."

If you agree, Xue Manzi will accept your affection. What do you think? ”

"Don't say pretty things, just talk about the price!"

"Okay, look, you've seen this yard before, back and forth, and it's clean, and there's absolutely no trouble. On the side of the government, over there in the tooth shop, including the corners and corners, those places that cannot be seen, I, Xue Manzi, have done it properly for you. Don't ask you to a bit.

The price is absolutely affordable, you just come up with this number, don't worry about anything, don't hide it from you, there are two of them that I earned, one more word, I Xue Manzi will give you the head! ”

Xue Manzi stretched out a finger.

Qi Shan glanced at it and said, "Ten pieces of money? ”

"God, this is Luzhou City, don't joke with me, ten yuan, don't say buy such a good house in the city, even if it is outside the city, the broken yard in the Hundred Ghost Bamboo Forest must be worth three or five dollars!"

Qi Shan said: "It's not impossible to have a hundred runs, but I'm new here, and there is no errand runner beside me, so you have to solve it for me, I want a guy who is familiar with Luzhou City and even the surrounding terrain."

And there is a place of rules, a place has a place of customs, in the capital housewarming to a new house, the rules when moving into a new household, in Luzhou City may not be applicable, when I move in, the banquet to the neighbors, according to the rules to pay for food, what scale? How many days please? Do you want to invite the neighbors to be elders? You're going to have to do all these things for me. ”

Xue Manzi looked at Qi Shan for a long time, and then gave a thumbs up.

"I didn't see it, Lang Jun, you are not very old, you are thoughtful, and you are well-thought. didn't say it, since you opened your mouth, Xue Manzi will definitely do things for you beautifully! ”

As he spoke, Xue Manzi slapped a key on the stone table and said, "You move in first, send someone to get some bedding, pots and pans, etc., and settle them." I will go through all the formalities for you, and say hello to the brothers of the snake and rat road, and you can rest assured that within three days, the formal contract will be handed over to you. ”

"Okay. Anyway, with the teahouse shopkeeper as a guarantor, I will believe you. ”

Qi Shan nodded, casually took out a large silver ingot from his sleeve and placed it on the stone table.

"Look, this is full of snowflake silver, 20 taels. It's a deposit for you in advance. This time, you're not afraid that I'll break my promise! ”

Xue Manzi laughed and grabbed the silver in his hand.

"Look at what you said, how can you be like that? Don't worry, this matter is on me, and after three days, everything will be done properly for you. ”

The two of them talked for a while, and Xue Manzi got up to say goodbye.

Qi Shan sent it to the door and asked casually, "By the way, where is the Qingtian Medicine House you said?" ”

"Coincidentally, isn't it, the west wall of your middle courtyard, and over the wall is the Qingtian Medicine House. If you count from the people in the alley, it is three doors apart! ”

Xue Manzi turned around and said, "Go back, if you have anything to do with me, send someone to the teahouse to shout, and within half an hour, you will definitely appear in front of you." ”

After saying that, he saluted again, and hurried away.

Looking at his cheerful pace, I think that this transaction has made a lot of money.

Qi Shan closed the door, looked in the direction of the west, and couldn't help but smile.

Coincidentally, I didn't write a book, I didn't have this thought, but I didn't expect that under the mistake, I really bought the house next to Bao Zheng, which is a neighbor who made it.

Back in the main hall, sitting on the Taishi chair, Qi Shan thought for a while and waved his hand to open a space door.

A group of five people walked out quickly, bowed to the mountain and saluted.

The five people have different appearances, and they are all dressed in the costumes of the Song Dynasty.

Qi Shan pointed to an old man with gray hair and a rigid appearance and said, "From today onwards, you will be my housekeeper, remember your background information, and don't show flaws when talking to people." It's called Fauber. It's a good idea to remember for the general public. ”

He pointed to a slightly younger man with the smell of a book, and said, "You are the bookkeeper, called Lao Wang." ”

Then he pointed to the two girls dressed as maids.

"You two just call it a small cup and a small saucer, it's just fine. Responsible for cleaning my bedroom, making beds and quilts. ”

The last image is very special, it is the dress of an aunt.

Qi Shan looked at him, a little like Jia Ling'er's face, and teased: "You just call Aunt Jia, responsible for cooking and usual shopping." ”

Afterwards, Qi Shan bought and waved his hand and said: "In two days, there will be a small house at home, and when the banquet is over the neighborhood, Fu Bo will recruit two more washing servants and a groom, and the basic staffing of our family will be completed."

How to recruit, or how much to spend on your own thinking, this bit of intelligence, you should still have it. ”

"It's the boss!"

Fauber bowed his head in response.

Qi Shan waved his hand: "It's all in the Song Dynasty, what kind of boss is it?" From tomorrow onwards, call me young master! ”

"Yes, young master!"

Qi Shan nodded, then beckoned, taking out some household items such as bedding and pots and pans from his personal space.

He told each of them to go and regulate, sat down by himself for a while, and then led the little donkey out into the street.

Before it was dark, Qi Shan was still walking around this plausible ancient city for a while.
