Chapter 67: Arriving in Shangjing

Hearing this suggestion, An Huang's eyes lit up.

"Yes, yes, we in Anguo need this kind of minister. This suggestion of the Ministry of Industry is commendable, so let's implement it according to this plan! ”

At this time, another minister came out, and Emperor An fixed his eyes and saw that it was the prime minister of the right court.

"Your Majesty, I wonder if we should extend the time for registration. In this way, the news can spread farther, so that more people of insight can participate. Moreover, with the influx of people in Beijing, public security should also be strengthened, and it is best to specify an area for these candidates to live. ”

The prime minister is really the prime minister, and he is more thoughtful in the end.

"What Lin Xiang said is reasonable, and law and order must be strengthened. Especially now that there are not many troops stationed in Beijing, if necessary, Lin Xiang, you can directly mobilize my Imperial Forest Army. ”

Emperor An gave Lin Xiang great power, you must know that the Royal Forest Army is the last barrier of the Anguo royal family.

As soon as this sentence came out, it was opposed by many ministers.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Forest Army can't easily hand over its military power!"

Emperor An squinted at these opposing ministers: "I know that you are divided into several factions. Normally, I can turn a blind eye, but this year's martial arts champion exam is the top priority of our country. If something goes wrong because of your faction's fighting, watch out for the heads of your entire clan. ”

The usually mild-mannered Emperor An was also murderous when he started a fire, so frightened that those ministers kept kowtowing and shouting to His Majesty to stop his anger.

Emperor An waved his hand: "Lin Xiang is the elder of my dynasty, he was the right minister when the emperor was alive, if you really want to rebel, I think the country of An Guo has long been surnamed Lin." Besides, Lin Xiang is still my in-law, and he is the father-in-law of King Wu'an, who is slandering Lin Xiangxiu and blames me for being welcome. ”

Lin Xiang bowed: "Thank you Your Majesty for your trust." ”

An Huang waved his hand: "I still have to worry about Lin Xiang and deal with the problem of public security and the residence of the candidates." I saw that there seemed to be a vacant land in the west of Shangjing, and if it didn't work, I would build some houses there for them to live in, and manage it in a unified manner. ”

In the end, the early dynasty dispersed, and there was a more powerful Lin Xiang.

The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household also moved at the first time.

The household department publishes the official document of recruitment and does a good job of registration.

The Ministry of Engineering has to start work on two sides, one is convenient for building the ring for the competition, and the other is to build the temporary house for the candidates.

But who doesn't dare to complain, especially the group of people who don't deal with Lin Xiang, now they are all obediently holding their tails. If any trick is caught, it's not a trivial matter.

Shangjing was in full swing to prepare, and Chu Jiangnan and Li Chuang finally came to Shangjing.

The four of them swayed into the capital with a carriage, and the streets were bustling with people, and the hawkers shouted hard, and the sound was endless.

Yang Xian sighed with emotion: "I am like a frog at the bottom of a well." ”

Indeed, Yang Xian, who was still a gentleman at the time, felt that he was awesome, his father was the richest man, and he was followed by a group of subordinates.

But now when I look at it in the capital, the good guy is simply a turtle that has just grown out of the ground.

The four of them walked slowly and suddenly saw a group of people reading a sign on the side of the road.

"Big brother, I'll go see what the notice says." Li Chuang couldn't wait.

Chu Jiangnan nodded, and Li Chuang happily dismounted and squeezed in.

Li Chuang squeezed in and looked at the notice.

Good guy, this time the champion of the martial arts test actually changed the rules, anyone can participate, the key is to provide a place to live.

Li Chuang ran back with his hands dancing: "Big brother, it's about the martial arts exam." The notice said that this time the exam was nationwide. When the time comes, the rings will be set up, and the first place produced in each ring will be rematched. Moreover, this time there is a place to stay. ”

Chu Jiangnan's heart moved: "Then let's hurry up and sign up first, and then start looking for Ling Ling." ”

Since Chu Jiangnan has already decided, the others have no opinions.

Wu Zhuangyuan's registration office is located in the west of the city.

The four of them inquired with others all the way, and only then did they find a place to sign up.

Chu Jiangnan took Li Chuang, Yang Xian and Qianqian to the registration office.

Chu Jiangnan arched his hand: "Official, let's sign up for the exam." ”

The household official in charge of registration looked up at the four of them: "Do all four of you have to sign up?" This girl wants it too? ”

Chu Jiangnan shook his head: "It's just the three of us, the girl doesn't sign up." ”

The officer nodded, began registering their names, and handed them a number plate.

This number plate is given randomly, so you can avoid cheating in a bunch.

After Chu Jiangnan and the three of them got the number plate, Li Chuang couldn't wait to ask: "Can you arrange the four of us to live together?" ”

The household official frowned: "The three of you can live here, but I'm afraid this girl can't." Now the room is tight, and there are rules, not that candidates cannot live. ”

Yang Xian was anxious: "Isn't it okay to share a room with me?" ”

The official of the household department shook his head: "The places to provide candidates with residence are all Chase shops, it is really inconvenient for a girl, and there are indeed regulations." There are too many registrations now, and there is simply not enough to live. ”

Now in this situation, Yang Xian really didn't know what to do, he looked at Chu Jiangnan.

Chu Jiangnan also knows that it is indeed a bit embarrassing for so many people to sign up now.

"Then we don't live here, okay? We'll come back when it's time for the exam. ”

The official of the household department nodded: "This is okay, now that the martial arts exam has become a prosperous era for the whole people, we can also relax some of the things that can be relaxed." ”

Chu Jiangnan hugged his fists and thanked them, and took Yang Xian and them away.

"Master, what should I do next?" Yang Xian was a little anxious.

The four of them must not be able to afford to stay in the guest house in Shangjing, although they still have some money on them, but they can't afford to spend so much.

"Now, let's see if we can find a yard to live in. It's best to take advantage of the fact that the crowds have not yet poured into Shangjing, and we will buy a courtyard to come down. When the crowd comes, it is estimated that the housing prices in Beijing will soar like a rocket. ”

Chu Jiangnan made a quick decision.

Yang Xian gritted his teeth: "Let's buy a set of yards, we still have some money in our hands, and it's better to deal with it all at once." ”

Now that they had made up their minds, the four of them began to look around to see which one was listed for sale.

I searched for a long time like a headless fly, but I couldn't find anything.

The four of them were tired and hungry, so they decided to find a restaurant to eat, and by the way, they would ask someone else.

After all, the easiest place to inquire about the news is the restaurant.

Yuelai Restaurant is a time-honored brand in Shangjing, and its business is usually very good.

After Chu Jiangnan settled the horses and carriages, they entered Yuelai Restaurant.

Xiao Er greeted him warmly: "A few objective, eat something." ”

Yang Xian looked at the menu and decided to let Xiao Er serve some signature dishes.

After all, you still have to eat a little better for the first meal in Beijing.

The food was served quickly, and Xiao Er put the food on their table and was about to turn around to leave when Yang Xian stopped him.

"Little second brother, can I ask you something?"

"If there is anything objective, please feel free to say it." Xiao Er said very humbly.

"We want to buy a yard in Shangjing, I don't know where to sell it, you can help guide us."

After Yang Xian finished speaking, he stuffed a bunch of money to Xiao Er.

Seeing the money, Xiao Er smiled happily: "You really asked a few guest officers." I have a friend who has a yard that he wants to sell, and he likes to gamble. I've been losing badly lately, so I'm going to sell a yard. ”

Yang Xian's eyes lit up: "Then little second brother, can you please help me invite your friends over?" ”

Xiao Er received money from others, and the matter must be done in place.

"Objective, you wait a minute, I'll go and call him now, it's not far from here."

Chu Jiangnan waited while eating.

Every time, Xiao Er came over with a man dressed in brocade but with vain steps.

After the man came over, he asked straight to the point, "Is that what you want to buy my yard?" ”

Yang Xian nodded: "I don't know where the house for sale is and how much it will cost." ”

"The house is in Dongcheng, a very prosperous place, and it sells for five hundred taels."

Yang Xian heard that five hundred taels had a bottom in his heart, and was about to say that who knew that Xiao Er would grab the words first: "Zhang Laosan, you are not authentic." These are my friends, is the right price for you? ”

Zhang Laosan's old face turned red when he was said: "I am asking for a price, you can also pay it back on the ground." ”

Xiao Er came directly: "I don't want to talk to you, the price is three hundred taels." To sell or not to sell!! ”

Zhang Laosan opened his mouth, he originally wanted to sell it to these outsiders at a high price, but now that Lu Xiaoer has come forward, he won't be able to pit anyone.

The key is that the three hundred taels are fair, and I have been unlucky recently, so I will sell it.

"Okay, three hundred taels is three hundred taels, and I will sell it to you for the sake of Xiao Er's face, do you want to go with me to get the title deed now or finish eating?"

"If Brother Zhang doesn't dislike it, then sit down and eat something together, and we'll practice later." Chu Jiangnan politely invited Zhang Laosan to sit together.

Zhang Laosan's eyes were a little moist, since he was addicted to gambling, he lost his fortune, many people looked down on him, and now there are still people who exalt themselves like this.

After a few people finished the meal, they wrote a business document under the witness of Xiao Er.

Because they were looked down upon by Chu Jiangnan, Zhang Laosan took the initiative to drop another fifty taels.

In other words, the four people of Chu Jiangnan bought a set of courtyards located in the east city of Shangjing City from Zhang Laosan at a price of two hundred and fifty taels.

Of course, when the second brother was leaving, Yang Xian also stuffed some silver for the second brother.

After all, it was his righteous words that made Yang Xian save two hundred taels.

If people are good to you and give you face, then you also need to repay them.

There are contacts and contacts, this is called friends!

Looking at the somewhat dilapidated courtyard in front of him, Yang Xian sighed: "Finally, there is a place that belongs to us." ”
