Chapter 877: Steward Feng's Intelligence

"The original owner of the manor, I heard that it has disappeared, and the servants of the manor have been disbanded. The surrounding farmers all said that the village was basically deserted and no one took care of it. He paused and said, "I expect that the official will observe it for several months, and feel that there is a bargain to take advantage of, so I simply accept it for resale, and want to make a profit for nothing." I didn't know that someone had come to Bega. ”

He Lingchuan smiled: "I wanted to eat the end of the household, but I didn't eat it." It seems that this is not the first time that the officials have done this. Can you find out who the original owner of the manor was? ”

"It seems to be a national teacher? But no one around could say the specific name. ”

He Lingchuan's heart moved: "Could it be Qingyang National Teacher?" ”

In the past few months, the only national teacher who has fallen from Baijia is Qingyang National Teacher, and he has nothing to do with him.

And the Qingyang National Teacher has been a high-ranking power for more than 100 years, so it is not surprising where to buy property.

cough, I didn't expect that I would drift thousands of miles away, and I could still hear the news of Qingyang National Teacher, what a fate.

"It's speculative, unkind and risky." Anyway, it's also the property of the Bega, can you just take it?

Of course, He Lingchuan had also heard this kind of thing in his original world.

Taking advantage of it is so rough that it is easy to kick the iron plate.

"What will happen to this in the end?"

"I don't know how the two sides negotiated, the official returned the manor, and the original owner has entrusted someone to sell it." Ding Zuodong coughed, "I don't think the price of the manor is expensive, it seems that someone has already targeted it, does the owner want to take it?" ”

He quoted the price, and when He Lingchuan heard it, it was indeed not expensive.

It seems that Qingyang Guoshi is determined to sell all foreign assets.

After she was demoted to a commoner, she was an old woman who was almost 200 years old, and she had no children under her knees, so what was the use of leaving so many assets that she couldn't touch? It's better to exchange money.

With this alone, He Lingchuan knew her general situation.

"Wait a little longer." He Lingchuan has less than 300,000 taels in his hands, which is already a wealth that ordinary people can't earn in a few lifetimes, but he still feels stretched thin when he uses it for a career. At the moment, every copper plate is very useful, and you can't invest at will, "If you want to buy it, use it in your name." ”

Ding Zuodong responded and immediately retreated.

In the evening of the next day, one of He Lingchuan's subordinates, Lu Qiuwei, a native of Rongshan, also came to report:

"The Lu family once had a housekeeper surnamed Feng, who was dismissed half a year ago. Because no one hired him anymore, in the past few months, he often went to the yellow croaker tavern in the port to pour out his sorrows, and scolded the original owner when he was drunk. ”

Yellow croaker tavern, He Lingchuan also went to. The drinks there are a bit inferior, but the noodle soup is surprisingly good.

Due to the low price, most of the regular customers are peddlers' pawns and wharves who move goods on the docks.

"Is it Lu Zhensheng's butler?"

Lu Qiuwei shook his head: "No, no, he was originally the second housekeeper in Lu Zhensheng's cousin's house." I heard from the people in the tavern that he was fired because he was not clean in the owner's house, so he scolded the Lu family everywhere. The original owner was displeased, accused him of false accusations, and invited him to eat half a month in prison. After coming out, Steward Feng didn't dare to stay in Qucheng, so he came to Blade Harbor. ”

Yes, the Lu family is Bailie's sky, and it is easy to catch Steward Feng in prison. Blade Harbor is different, you can scold people casually here. He Lingchuan said with a smile: "Then he scolded the Lu family, and he really has no burden." ”

"I invited him to drink twice, and he called me a brother and brother, and he quarreled with others on my behalf." Drunkards are usually unguarded against outsiders, "Tonight a large fleet arrives at the port, and it needs to be unloaded in the middle of the night, and most of the people in the tavern have to go to work, and it will be quiet." I would like to take the opportunity to ask some about the Deer family. ”

"Is it safe?"

The wine seller said that the bitter water in Steward Feng's stomach was poured dozens of times, and his ears were about to grow calluses when he heard it. I'm chatting with Steward Feng, and no one should care. ”

He Lingchuan immediately stood up: "I'll go with you." ”

The door of the yellow croaker tavern is not small, and the pestle is near the port wharf, so that regular customers can come to eat some wine as soon as they get to work. The faded signboard looked a little old, but He Lingchuan knew that business here had always been thriving.

Cheap, but walk-through.

And the store is not cramped at all, and more than 20 square tables can be placed at the same time, but the windows are smaller and not bright.

This is also intentional, when the wine is drunk, people are a little afraid of light.

Today's tavern is really quiet, most of the guests here go to work on the docks, and the smell of sweat is lightened. Lu Qiuwei snorted towards the innermost small table: "It's him." ”

He Lingchuan saw that the man was holding his head with his back to the door, and there was a pot of wine on the table.

Lu Qiuwei walked over and sat down at Steward Feng's table, while He Lingchuan sat by the window, two tables away from them.

The corners of the table are all slurred, and they are very bright and smooth.

When the guy saw a guest, he sent a plate of bad edamame, and He Lingchuan casually asked for a bottle of soju and a bowl of fish noodle soup.

He drank both good and bad wine, and the soju in this dock tavern was dry and spicy and burned his throat, and the guests who drank it for the first time often choked, drank too much, and got up the next day with a splitting headache.

Looking at Steward Feng again, the clothes are good, but they are crumpled and patched.

He drank a pot of bad wine from a big man, and the appetizer was only a plate of shrimp skin.

But when he saw Lu Qiuwei, his eyes lit up. The latter patted him on the shoulder: "Why are you drinking again?" ”

Steward Feng laughed at himself: "Heh, isn't it like this every day?" ”

Lu Qiuwei called his buddy and asked for a bottle of red rice wine, and then put a few meat dishes such as braised pig scalp and dried salted fish, and then said: "Old Feng, I will go north in two days." ”

"Oh? Where to? ”

"Qucheng. Our proprietor is going to open a shop there to do business and test the waters. ”

"Testing the waters? Your owner went to Qucheng to test the waters? Steward Feng took a sip of wine, "Is your host's brain broken?" ”

Lu Qiuwei said: "How do you say this? ”

He glanced back quietly, and saw that the "owner with a bad brain" was pouring himself a drink, very calmly.

"Not Duqu City, who owns this entire Bailie?"

"Deer?"

Steward Feng said with a smile: "More than ten years ago, it was appropriate, but in recent years, there have been a lot of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes in Bailie. If you ask the people in this tavern, they have been here for more than 20 years and have to ask someone to intercede in order to pay less taxes. Blade Harbor is like this, not to mention Qucheng! If you outsiders who don't know what to do dare to go to Qucheng to do business, they will punish you to death. ”

Lu Qiuwei was puzzled: "I heard that Bailie has been peaceful for decades, and he hasn't fought a big war, why do you still think of a way to get money from everyone?" ”

Bailie's geographical location is good, and the country of Mu bordering to the west is a big country, but it has a good relationship with Bailie; The surrounding area is full of small countries, even tribal territories like Bailie. Of course, the most unstable factor in the east is the fast-rising kingdom of Ya.

If Panlong City could stay here, Zhong Shengguang would really wake up laughing in his dreams at night.

"Pick money, these two words are used well!" Steward Feng slapped the table, "They can obviously rob hard, but they still have to give you a fine." ”

He asked the new buddy, "Do you know the origin of Bailie?" ”

"I know a little, I heard that the people here are the remnants of a hundred nations, and the old territory was occupied by Bega, so they came here."

"Bailie's territory-" Steward Feng poked his middle finger on the table, "Actually, the area at the beginning was three times the size of the current one. ”

"Huh? That's not small. Lu Qiuwei was a little surprised, "What happened?" ”

"For six hundred years, the east side let people cut off a piece, the west side let people borrow a piece of land, and the disputed places were let go again, and it slowly shrank to the size it is now." Steward Feng shook his head, "Bailie has been able to be hard in the past few years, and his body has been soft in the past few decades, so he swallowed his anger in advance, and said what he said to ask for and ask for ......."

"Seek for yourself?" What a compliment, how can you use this?

"That's right! Anyway, I don't dare to provoke right and wrong outside. ”

"Oh, it's not that the son of the patriarch of the Lu clan has climbed the high branches of the Mu country, and Bailie Zhongxing is in sight."

"ZTE?" Steward Feng sneered, "It's not bad if you don't go bankrupt!" ”

"Bankrupt?" Lu Qiuwei looked incredulous, "With such a large area, can you still go bankrupt?" I have heard that Baili has fertile water and soil, developed commerce and trade, and all industries are developing at the same time. ”

Looking at the geographical location of Bailie, north of the bay and among the countries, it is the hub to the countries.

Touching a piece of fat can also be stained with hand oil.

At this time, the fish noodle soup ordered by He Lingchuan came, the soup was milky white, fresh and fragrant, and it was decorated with a few green onions, and it looked very good.

It looks like somen noodles - there are really no other ingredients - but this is actually a soup base made from a large number of trash fish, and the last thing that is lacking in the dock is the fish goods, and the store picks the leftover trash fish at the bottom of the basket to make the soup, which is about the same as no money.

Therefore, such a big bowl of noodles is only three big children, and the conscience price, and the poor people who work hard can afford it, so it has become one of the signboards of the yellow croaker tavern.

He Lingchuan snorted, the soup was thick and delicious, and the noodles were quite chewy.

Steward Feng glanced back at him when he heard the sound, and then continued to say to Lu Qiuwei: "More than ten years ago, although the Lu family suffered from splinting in other countries, they still lived a good life behind closed doors; Now it seems to be arrogant on the outside, but in fact, there is a mess of accounts inside, only I know! ”

Lu Qiuwei was surprised: "That's right, do you take all the money to decorate the faΓ§ade?" ”

Lu San is Lu Zhensheng's cousin, the third in the clan.

"Isn't it!" Steward Feng sneered, "I have been a housekeeper in Lusan's family for more than ten years, and his house looks like a high-ranking family from the outside, and the house is big and magnificent, but in fact, half of the courtyards in it have been closed for many years, and they are neither repaired nor cleaned. Two years ago, there was a wing on the west side that creaked incessantly at night, and everyone thought it was haunted, only to find out that there was a litter of weasels living there, who often jumped over the well, and brought barrels with a rope. ”

"That's a lack of people, right?" The Lu family seems to have been unprosperous.

"It's really not much, but the salaries paid by his family to us housekeepers and servants are also very scouty, and they are not even as much as the merchants in Qucheng. In the past, no one believed me when I said it. ”
