Chapter 50 I Have a Suite in the Song Dynasty
Before parting, Meng Shu asked Bai Suzhen's second daughter where she lived, and said that she would often find her two sisters in the future.
Xu Xian also wanted to ask Meng Shu, but she had already become a family and a married woman, so it was inappropriate to ask rashly.
Back at the inn, Chen Chu asked Xiao Er to send a table of wine and food to the room.
Eight people sat around the Eight Immortals table, and a look of depression appeared on everyone's face.
The fat man picked up the wine glass, drank it all, and scolded: "It's too bad." ”
Chen Chu was silent in thought, the matter had come to this, it was useless to worry and complain, only finding a way to solve it was the right way.
Chen Chu asked, "Professor, is there any good way?" ”
The man with glasses showed a wry smile, shook his head and said, "Things have developed like this, what can I do." With that, he also took his glass and drank it to the sky.
Several big men drank wine cup after glass and didn't eat vegetables.
Meng Shu was also quite depressed, and drank with a few old men.
He Yu suddenly asked timidly: "Why does the white lady call you Engong?" ”
One sentence made everyone stop drinking, and all their eyes fell on Chen Chu.
Yes, why did Bai Suzhen call Chen Chuengong? Xu Xian is her father-in-law.
The man with glasses changed his face drastically: "Oh no! ”
In the face of everyone's doubts, the man with glasses said: "We have changed history. ”
The glasses man poured another glass of wine and drank it, and said: "Chen Chu saved Bai Suzhen, but this matter should have been done by Xu Xian's ancestors, and Bai Suzhen married Xu Xian, a descendant of the Xu family, in order to repay her kindness, so it's right." ”
"However, we changed history, and we did what Xu Xianzu should have done. Bai Suzhen's engong changed from Xu Xian to Chen Chu. ”
The fat man asked, "What do you mean?" ”
The man with glasses looked solemn: "Bai Suzhen wants to repay her kindness, it is Chen Chu, not Xu Xian." In other words, no matter how we pull the red line, Bai Suzhen will not marry Xu Xian because there is no relationship between them. ”
The fat man was stunned and said, "What should I do then?" ”
Chen Chu was also distressed, regretting why he sprinkled gold sore medicine on Bai Suzhen in the first place, if he didn't sprinkle the medicine, the ancestors of the Xu family would definitely find Bai Suzhen when they went up the mountain, and then save her life, hey, it's really cheap.
Li Xiaoyao, who had been listening, suddenly said: "Then can we understand that a lover will eventually become a family, not referring to Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian?" ”
This sentence made everyone stunned again, and then they looked at Chen Chu with strange eyes one by one.
Chen Chu was stared at by them, and his scalp was a little numb, and said, "You... Do you want me to marry Bai Suzhen? ”
The crowd didn't speak, and the silence made the atmosphere even more eerie.
The man with glasses said: "What Xiaoyao said is not unreasonable. ”
Chen Chu almost collapsed, and said: "No, no, no, how can I marry Bai Suzhen, this is absolutely not good, and we are here to do the task, the so-called lover is definitely not me." ”
The fat man said, "Don't be nervous, it's just an idea." ”
Chen Chu immediately said: "I can't think about it." ”
The man with glasses played a round game: "Emotional matters, whether ancient or modern, whether goblins or immortals, the probability of falling in love at first sight is very small, and the love that lasts for a long time is stronger." Therefore, although Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian do not have such a relationship, their marriage has already been decided, and what we have to do is to create opportunities. ”
Meng Shu asked, "But how do you create it?" Today, Mayor Zhang calculated his destiny there for a long time, and I could see that Sister Bai really believed what Mayor Zhang said, and she happened to see Brother Chen under the purple bamboo forest, and Brother Chen was her father-in-law. ”
"It's a real problem." The man with glasses nodded and said, "But now we have no better way, there is no way to control our feelings, what we can do is to guide." Don't talk about these today, at least we have found Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian, the task is equal to half of the completion, we should celebrate, come, everyone toast! ”
……
This night, Chen Chu had insomnia, or he didn't have the heart to cultivate.
Marrying Bai Suzhen, Chen Chu couldn't even think about it, and what the fat man just said floated in his mind.
"Bai Suzhen is so beautiful, you ask yourself, don't you like it?"
Chen Chu was silent, the first time he saw Bai Suzhen, he was amazed by this woman who was as smart as a fairy. Living in a worldly and chaotic world, accustomed to the deception of shopping malls, it shows the preciousness of this pure and ethereal spirit.
Regardless of whether Bai Suzhen is a human or a demon, a normal man, as long as he is normal, there is no one who doesn't like beautiful things.
Bai Suzhen is so beautiful, Chen Chu is naturally not exempt from vulgarity.
Thinking about it, the sky outside the house was gradually brightening, and while having breakfast, the man with glasses asked in detail about the conversation between Meng Shu and Bai Suzhen yesterday. After listening to this, he pondered for a long time and said, "We need to buy a mansion." ”
Meng Shu was puzzled: "It's good to stay in the inn, and besides, we are just passers-by here." ”
The fat man sneered: "The professor is a cultural person, how can a small inn be worthy of the identity of a professor, of course, you have to have a mansion to show your identity"
"Fatty." Chen Chu glanced at him reproachfully, the fat man stopped squeaking, and he didn't want to go against the man with glasses, but he couldn't help it.
The professor has long been accustomed to the fat man's targeting, so he didn't care, and said: "This task, I'm afraid it won't be completed in a short time, a pair of men and women who haven't had the slightest contact before, from acquaintance to acquaintance to marriage, the steps in between are not many, and the time is not long." We are not familiar with Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian now, but in the future, they will always come to us, and they will not have a fixed foothold, no. ”
Everyone nodded in agreement, and the fat man also understood this truth.
So everyone no longer objected, and Chen Chu asked, "Then how big should we buy?" Where to buy? How should the parents of the alliance leader and the fat man explain? What kind of business does he have? ”
The man with glasses nodded and said: "These need to be considered, so let's assign tasks today, I and Xi Xi will buy a mansion, Meng Shu will go to the security hall, Chen Chu will go to Qingbo Gate, Mayor Zhang and Xiaoyao and Zhu Jun, you take He Yu to dress up as a merchant, I will give you a thousand taels of silver, whatever business you do, but you must establish a relationship with the literati and businessmen in Qiantang County as soon as possible." ”
Meng Shu and Chen Chu asked at the same time, "What am I doing there?" ”
The man with glasses said: "Meng Shu pretended to get the medicine, as for what medicine to take, you can do it yourself." ”
"I'm not sick, what are you doing with medicine?"
"You can pretend if you are not sick, there is an old man in the security hall, how many people who open a pharmacy can diagnose pathologies and know how to dispense medicines, you can just say a symptom." The man with glasses is like a precision instrument, well-organized, and speaks at a moderate pace, as if these things have been calculated for a long time.
"You go to the security hall, no matter what method you use, you want to attract Xu Xian. Xu Xian will be heartbroken when he knows that you have married a family, and at this time, you must not give him any illusions. The man in glasses said in a serious tone.
Meng Shu was puzzled: "Then why should I go to him?" ”
The man with glasses suddenly smiled evilly, and his smile made several people shudder, and said, "Recommend Bai Suzhen to him." ”
Chen Chu asked, "What about me?" ”
"Your task is similar to Meng Shu, since you are not willing to marry Bai Suzhen." The man with glasses paused for a moment and advised, "Then don't give her any hope." ”
Chen Chu lowered his eyebrows and was silent, and Meng Shu suggested: "This is simple, isn't it okay for Brother Chen to say that he has already married." ”
"Yes." The man with glasses nodded and looked at He Yu, He Yu seemed to see the conspiracy in the eyes of the man with glasses, and couldn't help but shrink his shoulders: "Why are you looking at me?" ”
The man with glasses turned to Chen Chu again and asked, "If Bai Suzhen asks who your wife is?" Where is it? Do you have children? How do you answer? ”
Chen Chu opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
Meng Shu waved his hand: "This is simple, it is dead." ”
The man with glasses dipped his fingers in the wine, wrote and drew on the table, and said, "Let's assume that if Bai Suzhen learns that your wife is dead, but you cling to your deceased wife and are unwilling to continue the string, what do you think Bai Suzhen will think?" ”
Meng Shu blurted out: "Is there a problem in that regard?" ”
The fat man echoed: "Don't lift! ”
Chen Chu's cheeks twitched, and the rest of the people couldn't help laughing, even the iceberg queen was amused and giggled.
The man with glasses also smiled and shook his head, this serious professor is also integrating into the team, and at the same time becoming more like a normal person.
The task of the man with glasses is not simple, to buy a house in the Song Dynasty, you have to know the purchasing power of the currency of this dynasty, and you also have to understand the housing prices of this dynasty, and what taxes and fees need to be paid. These are all very cumbersome, and if an ordinary person crosses over, these things are enough to annoy him.
The man with glasses carried out the process of buying a house in an orderly manner, first of all, he figured out that not everyone can buy a house, or rather, it is not a house that can be called a house if it is big. Non-royal relatives are not allowed to call the house, and the general one is called a mansion and a mansion.
However, these problems are not a problem for the man with glasses.
The man with glasses took a fancy to a house located on Qinghefang, which was the house of a university scholar in the previous dynasty.
Three thousand taels of silver, this price is very high, you know, the Song Dynasty's monetary system is very chaotic, because the Song Dynasty's social and economic development is rapid, industry and commerce are also unprecedentedly developed, which leads to an unprecedented demand for currency.
The Song Dynasty somewhat followed some of the habits of the Tang Dynasty, and the currency of this dynasty was quite varied, including silver, copper, iron, and even lead and tin money. And all states have the right to mint money, and there is also the existence of private minting money.
But no matter what, money and copper coins are always the most commonly used currency, even if they travel to the Xia, Shang and Zhou eras, the glasses man also prepared a large number of sea shells and bronze shells.
Three thousand taels of silver, the man with glasses did not bargain, directly took out three pieces of money, handed it to the owner of the house, the two sides signed a good contract, the man with glasses blew the ink on the paper, shook it, folded it and put it in his pocket.
The Queen of the Iceberg watched the whole process and couldn't help but say, "It's so simple to buy a house? ”
The man with glasses never smiled at the Queen of the Iceberg, and the two walked into the mansion side by side, saying: "It is not easy to buy a house in the Song Dynasty, the law of the Song Dynasty stipulates: Where you sell and rely on the property, you must ask the relatives first, and the relatives do not buy, and then ask the neighbors, the neighbors do not want it, and others have to trade." ”
Seeing that the Queen of the Iceberg still had a puzzled expression, the man with glasses smiled and took her hand and said, "The average house may follow these requirements and get it all down, and you can probably buy a house smoothly in three or two months, but this house is not needed." ”
The Queen of the Iceberg asked, "Why?" ”
The man with glasses laughed and said, "Because this house is too expensive, ordinary people can't afford it." ”
[At twelve o'clock last night, I learned on the phone that my uncle had passed out with liver cancer at home and was sent to the hospital, but the hospital did not accept it. At eleven o'clock this morning, the people went. It happened to be just in time for a business trip, and then the rent was due, and changing houses was a headache. Anyway, all the bad things are piled up in October. Updates can only be guaranteed constantly, and double is even more difficult to guarantee. 】
