readx;? When Xu Yang was washing his face, he heard Yin Su'e's voice coming from the bed, and when he looked back, he saw Liu Xiangping's little head also sticking out of the bed curtain, and laughing at him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Xu Yang saw that he had woken up the two daughters and wiped the water droplets on his face with a towel, thought about it, and felt that if he dared to tell the story of finding the mansion, he would probably arouse the suspicion of the two daughters, so he decided to wait for another half a day and say that it was not too late.
After Xu Yang and his entourage left the room one after another, they came to the restaurant to eat, and everyone sighed, complaining about the outrageous high housing prices in Longjing, and said that if they couldn't find a suitable courtyard, then everyone would have to live in other cheap inns, and then find a way.
Ah Po heard everyone complaining there, and saw Xu Yang winking at him, and understood that the other party had not told everyone about finding the mansion at all. Apo snickered in his heart, thinking about how Xu Yang would explain to everyone the ins and outs of finding the mansion?
Xu Yang shook his head and sighed when he saw the four monks there, and remembered that yesterday, in addition to looking for a house, the four of them also inquired about the monks in the Guangshou Temple in Longjing, and asked: "Four masters, didn't the four of you inquire about your senior brothers and hosts in Longjing yesterday, I don't know if there is any news about them?"
"We inquired and found out, and learned that all the senior brothers were imprisoned in the 'Gongdelin Cell' at the eastern foot of Yanshan Mountain in the north of Longjing. The four of us went to inspect it, but the jailers wouldn't let me wait to go in and take a look. Alas...... Sora said. After speaking, the four of them shook their heads and sighed one by one.
When Xu Yang heard this, he really couldn't understand it anymore, and thought: "The four monks are shy, if you want to go to the prison to check the monk's situation, how can you do it easily without the money to buy the road?" Xu Yang whispered to Liu Xiangping beside him, Liu Xiangping hurriedly took out a few silver tickets from his arms and gave them to Xu Yang, and then Xu Yang gave the silver tickets in his hand to the four monks.
When the four monks saw that Xu Yang was going to give him a silver ticket, they didn't understand what the intention was, and asked: "Master Xu, I can come to Longjing smoothly, and I have already done a lot of things about you during this time, if we accept your money again, how can we bear it?" When asked, no one reached out to take Xu Yang's silver ticket.
"The four masters have misunderstood the intentions of the next one. The reason why the prison doesn't let you wait to go in is obviously because you want to extort money, so that you can wait in the prison to observe your brother and host. When you take these silver tickets and give them to the prisoners, you will naturally be able to enter them smoothly. The four masters don't shirk, just take it. Xu Yang stuffed the silver ticket in his hand into the empty shou.
The four monks naturally saw that the prisoners wanted to extort their money, but they were shy in their pockets, so they still had money to give to those prisoners, so they sat there sullenly, and they were embarrassed to beg Xu Yang and the others. The four monks also knew that they couldn't break into prison and spread wilderness in Longjing, otherwise they would not only not be able to save their senior brothers, but they might even end up in prison.
When the four monks saw that Xu Yang had seen through their thoughts, they forced the silver ticket to themselves, and they were immediately excited, with tears in their eyes, and constantly thanked Xu Yang for his good deeds. glanced at the silver ticket in his hand, and found that there were as many as one thousand taels, and he was more and more grateful to Xu Yang.
Xu Yang saw that the four monks had already run out of food, and he stopped the four of them again and again, and said: "It's not too early, the four masters should go to the prison as soon as possible to inspect their senior brothers, hosts, and others! I have already searched around Longjing yesterday, and I have also figured out the place where I want to buy a house, so there is no need for the master to look for a house anymore." ”
The four monks saw that Xu Yang had already made arrangements, thanked Xu Yang, and said goodbye to everyone, before they rushed towards the north of Longjing.
Everyone also had a good meal, and was about to bring up the matter of finding a house, but Xu Yang refused, saying: "I found a good place yesterday, and I bargained again, maybe I can buy this yard." You can stay in the restaurant and rest, and you don't need to look around in Longjing anymore. ”
When everyone heard Xu Yang swear that they could find a place to live, although they were full of doubts, they also knew that the other party would never boast about Haikou. When everyone was full of doubts, they saw Xu Yang ordering Dahu and Xiaohu to go out with him, and the rest of the people continued to stay in the restaurant.
Xu Yang led the big tiger and the little tiger out of the restaurant, and learned from the owner of the restaurant that he was looking for someone to repair the house, and then found ten people who built the house, so he led everyone to the mansion. Seeing that Xu Yang hadn't found the courtyard yet, the big tiger and the little tiger actually found the person who built the house in advance, and he became more and more puzzled.
When everyone came to the door of the mansion, they saw that the road at the entrance of the mansion had been cleaned spotlessly, and Na Song Lao and the other seven people also stood at the door early to greet Xu Yang and the others.
When these people who built the house learned that they were going to repair the Liu family's mansion, they were shocked one by one, claiming that there were ghosts, but they stopped moving, and they did not want to come to work in the Liu family's mansion no matter what.
"Don't worry, there is absolutely nothing unclean in this mansion like ghosts, just rest assured. You see, in addition to the courtyard walls and dilapidated houses, there are ghosts there in broad daylight? Besides, this is Longjing, how dare ghosts and the like spread wild in Longjing? Everyone should not listen to hearsay, and listen to the nonsense of those people in the market. If you refuse to do the work, then I have to invite someone else to come. Xu Yang explained.
After hearing Xu Yang's dissatisfied voice, they hurriedly apologized and said: "This mansion covers an area of more than 100 acres, and if it is renovated from beginning to end, I am afraid that it will take months and years to be able to repair it." I wonder if the master wants me to start repairing from there?"
Xu Yang thought that his group didn't have a place to live now, so he decided to start repairing from the pavilion where he lived, because although the place where he lived was a little dilapidated, as long as it was repaired a little, it could still be lived in quickly. said: "I think it will be repaired from the pavilion where I live." And then start repairing them one by one from the inside out, okay?"
When the construction man heard what Xu Yang said, he nodded, claiming that he would let the housekeeper take him to the pavilion to have a look and see how long it would take to repair it. So, Xu Yang ordered Song Lao and other seven people to take the construction workers to the pavilion to have a look.
Big Tiger and Little Tiger also heard from the conversation between the two sides that Xu Yang had actually bought this mansion a long time ago, and while looking towards the east of the mansion, he was surprised that the mansion was really vast, and asked Xu Yang: "Brother Xu, you have already bought the mansion, why do you want to hide it from us? Brother Xu, how much silver did you spend to buy this mansion? I think it will cost thousands of taels of silver to be able to buy such a big mansion, right?"
"I don't tell you, I just want to surprise you. In fact, I only spent 2,000 taels of silver on this mansion, and I also bought ten shops at the intersection. Such a large compound is enough for so many of us to live. Xu Yang said with a smile. And five hundred taels of it were used to repair the mansion.
The big tiger and the little tiger heard that Xu Yang only spent 2,000 silver, not only to buy this huge mansion, but also to buy the ten shops on the side of the road, which can be said to be a big advantage. The two of them couldn't close their mouths, and they were stunned.
Da Hu smiled and said, "Why did this Liu family's mansion sell the house at such a cheap price?
"Actually, Master Liu of the mansion has something to do with his family, and he urgently needs money, so he was met by me at such a cheap price. Xiaohu, you go back first and inform Liu Xiangping and the others to come here, so that they can take a look at the mansion I bought?" Xu Yang said.
Xiaohu nodded happily, and then ran towards the champion building. Xu Yang led the big tiger to the pavilion where everyone lived, and saw the construction workers talking with Song Lao and others there.
When Song Lao saw Xu Yang coming, he hurriedly walked over and said respectfully: "Just now, the construction staff said that it would only take five or six days to repair all the pavilions where they lived. This is still the pavilion is not seriously damaged, otherwise I am afraid it would take several months to be able to repair. ”
Xu Yang nodded, took out five hundred taels of silver from his arms and gave it to Song Lao, and let the other party take full responsibility for repairing the house. Xu Yang saw that the progress of repairing the house was too slow, so he asked Song Lao to go outside and invite more construction personnel to come so that the house and courtyard could be repaired as soon as possible.
Dahu saw Song Lao's white hair, and saw Xu Yang calling the other party a housekeeper, and wondered when Xu Yang even found a housekeeper to manage the mansion?
So, Dahu saw that Song Lao ordered the rest of Liu Chun and the others to be busy, their feet were not connected to the ground, and they ran out and in, busy. After a while, at the request of the construction personnel, they bought construction materials, and they wanted this and that, and the busy people went in and out.
It didn't take long for another wave of construction workers to come again, and under the arrangement of Song Lao, they repaired the pond, courtyard, hall and pavilion. Then, Liu Xiangping and others also walked into the mansion one after another, and saw the busy scene of the mansion, and saw that the mansion was very open, and people couldn't close their mouths with smiles.
When Liu Xiangping was still thinking about what to do after settling down in Longjing, Xu Yang actually took a step ahead of herself, and even prepared the shop for herself, holding Xu Yang's arm, and said with a smile: "Husband, why have you caught up with such a good thing, why don't I have this luck?" Husband, you say, what will we do in the future?"
"You're the best at business, and I don't know anything. What kind of business to do in the future, you just have to make an idea. Xu Yang looked at the busy construction workers and said. After speaking, he gave the other party the deed stored in his arms.
