Chapter 236: Buying a Lake
Behind the academy, Shan Ningque is the most inconspicuous...... But in the ...... of the people The name of the thirteen lives is the loudest.
The people in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City are talking about the knife at the side door of the academy, and the people in the pavilion of a stone residence don't know what Mr. Two is, but how can they not know that Mr. Thirteen is the master of the old pen Zhai Ning family?
After You Xian said that sentence on the stage, the pavilion was quiet for a moment, and then suddenly there were cheers and excited cheers.
The Southern Jin Dynasty Emperor Shang held the railing car tightly with both hands, his face became extremely pale because of anger, and he stared at the waiter downstairs fiercely, and shouted: "Who are you!"
Holding the fan with one hand and the back of the other hand, he saluted the surroundings and said, "I, Dongcheng Socks Youxian, am Mr. Ning's representative. ”
Then he looked at the West Pavilion on the third floor, looked at the Southern Jin Dynasty imperial merchant with an ugly expression, and said with a smile: "Anyone can sell chicken soup stickers, but I don't sell it to you Southern Jin Dynasty people, do you have an opinion?"
The Southern Jin Emperor's businessman's body trembled, and he rebuked angrily: "How can there be such a reason?"
The boss of Yishiju arched his hand and explained to him: "Today's old Bizhai seven posts have special sales rules, and the rules added by Shi Tao have been sent to you, you should know that Ning everyone has the right to choose their own buyers." ”
The Southern Jin Dynasty Emperor Shang remembered the documents he had seen on the table in the pavilion before, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, his chest rose and fell slightly, and said: "Even if everyone Ning has the right to choose the buyer by themselves, it should be chosen by everyone Ning, how can this person exercise the right by someone who knows if it is really a representative?"
"What happened just before, could it have reached Lao Bizhai? Could it be that everyone Ning was here before? You Tang people want to use these shameless means!"
The boss was silent for a moment and then smiled and said, "You are right, Ning was in the building before...... It's just that he has already left at this time, and when he leaves the waves, he entrusts this gentleman to make a decision. ”
The Southern Jin Dynasty Emperor Shang was stunned for a moment.
As I said before, Ning Que's reputation in Chang'an City is too loud now, especially after slashing Liu Yiqing, his status in the hearts of the Tang people is even higher, and everyone wants to see his true face.
At this time, the dignitaries in the pavilion ...... I was already coming for his Mobao...... Hearing that he was in the building before, thinking about the fate of the side, he couldn't help beating his chest with regret.
I don't know who shouted, and the dense footsteps suddenly sounded in the pavilion, and dozens of people lifted the bamboo curtains...... I couldn't suppress my excitement and curiosity and rushed down the wooden building and chased after the courtyard.
The chicken soup paste has belonged to the Wang University Scholar's Mansion, and the people in the venue can't drink the chicken soup...... Of course, I want to see what the old hen who boiled out of this pot of chicken soup looks like, and in the blink of an eye...... The Shiju people went to the empty building, and the imperial merchants of the Southern Jin Dynasty stood by the railing, their faces were difficult to see, but they had nothing to say.
"Everyone, wait!"
"Mr. Thirteen, wait...... My adults are invited!"
People walked out of the courtyard, walked through the green forest, came to the shore of Yangliu Lake, looked at the boat that was getting farther and farther away in the distance of Jinghu, waved their arms and shouted, wanting Ning Que to come back.
The boat wandered away on the quiet lake, and in the distance I could only see a figure in black clothes walking out of the black tent, bowing to this side, and then going ashore.
Looking at the back of the person who disappeared in the alley next to the victory residence, the people by the lake sighed and regretted.
It is rumored in the calligraphy and painting shop in Chang'an City that the seven bookmarks auctioned by Yishiju were stolen by the little maid of Lao Bizhai, and Ning Que was present in person today, so he naturally denied this rumor in some aspects.
When the Shiju auction was in full swing...... "The maid Sang Sang was in the quiet study in the backyard of the Yingou Gambling House in Xicheng, staring at the pile of papers on the table.
Since two years of Tao Chunfeng Pavilion overnight, the underworld in Chang'an City has been controlled by the Ichthyosaurus Gang, and the study room in the gambling house that originally belonged to the Xicheng bigwigs has become the treasury of the Ichthyosaurus Gang.
The papers on the table looked a little new, and the handwriting on them was not excellent, let alone comparable to the bookmarks in the old pen room, but the actual value of these papers was actually quite expensive.
These papers are all title deeds and title deeds.
Several wrinkled old gambling house stewards were accounting and counting these house deeds, and Qi Siye, the leader of the Fish Dragon Gang, stood aside and stared worriedly.
The abacus beads in the hands of the old stewards moved extremely quickly, and they crackled in the quiet room, which sounded crisp and good, but it made the melancholy on Qi Siye's face become more and more intense.
The abacus beads were still moving rapidly, and there was still a long time before the accounting was completed, Sang Sang put down the deed of the newly built three-entry house on the shore of the lake in his hand, and said, "There are still forty-one thousand four hundred and sixty-two taels of silver." ”
Qi Siye glanced at her with a slightly different expression, thinking that these stewards are the most powerful accounting experts in the gambling house, and they haven't calculated it yet, where did you get this amount from?
Sangsang knew what he was thinking, did not explain, and waited calmly.
After some time, the old stewards of the gambling house finally completed the complicated calculations, and the leading steward carefully cleared the title deeds on the table, and said respectfully: "According to Tao's letter of intent for a few days, the total amount is still 41,600 taels of silver. ”
This number is somewhat different from the number obtained by Sangsang, but it is not by much.
Fourth Master Qi glanced at Sang Sang in surprise, thinking that he had only made so many mistakes based on mental calculations...... It's really hard to go.
Sang Sang knew that she was right, and those old stewards had miscalculated the tax rate with a land deed, but she thought that the gap was not big, so she didn't point it out.
Qi Siye looked at the expression on her face, made a gesture, asked those gambling house stewards to leave, and then said seriously: "The house price and land price under Yanming Mountain are indeed cheaper than other places in Chang'an City, but if you want to buy so much at one time, you will always be raised by some greedy guys." ”
Then he shook his head and said: "Although the brothers in the gang can suppress the price, and the Chang'an Mansion has also found someone to say, but you can't go too far, throwing snakes and rats, if you let people stab you in the court, I won't be able to explain it after the second brother comes back, so this is probably the final price." ”
It turned out that the title deeds on the table were the deeds of the houses on the shore of Yanming Lake.
Yanming Lake has only recently been dredged by the Imperial Ministry of Industry, and the mud accumulated over the years is still piled up near the sand and stone mountain, and it is said that it will not be slightly better until next summer.
For this reason, although the Yanming Lake at the foot of Yanming Mountain is beautiful, it is still not a good place to live in the eyes of Chang'an people who pay attention to the quality of life.
The land prices and housing prices on the shore of Yanming Lake are the cheapest in Chang'an City, and now most of the houses by the lake are dilapidated old houses, and occasionally new houses are also built by ordinary people who are greedy for cheapness.
Listening to Fourth Master Qi's words, Sang Sang nodded and said, "The young master has already planned that the price will be raised. ”
In these days, Qi Siye was asked by Ning Que to secretly acquire the title deed of the house on the shore of Yanming Lake, as the leader of the largest gang in Chang'an City, naturally there were countless subordinates to help him do this, but at this time, he still didn't understand why Ning Que wanted to buy these properties.
"It's good to walk around the shore of Yanming Lake occasionally, but it's not suitable to live there. ”
He frowned and said, "Even if you want to live, you won't have to buy all the courtyards by the lake, no matter how low the price is, it will still add up to a huge amount." ”
Sang Sang said: "I don't know why the young master bought all the houses in Huyu, probably because he was greedy for quiet and didn't want to be disturbed. ”
Qi Siye shook his head again and again, thinking that if the real picture was quiet, Chang'an City didn't know how many quiet and beautiful places could be built to build new houses, why would there be such a big commotion.
And it's obviously certainly a loss-making deal.
"More than 40,000 taels of silver. ”
Sang Sang looked at the title deed on the table, and said to himself: "I don't know if it's enough in the end." ”
Fourth Master Qi said: "I do have some silver in my hand, but it is all public accounts, and I am just taking care of it for the second brother and the brothers, and I can't take it out." ”
Sang Sang nodded and said, "These things have already troubled the fourth master. ”
Fourth Master Qi waved his hand to show that he didn't care, and came up with another idea, saying: "Actually, as long as Ning Que enters the palace and says a word, more than 40,000 taels of silver is not too troublesome." ”
Sang Sang thought about Ning Que's intention to buy the Yanming Lake mansion, and understood that he definitely didn't want to have anything to do with the imperial court, so he shook his head and said, "Let's look at the movement over there in Yishiju." ”
"Don't look at it.
Ning Que walked into the room, looked at the title deeds on the table, and said, "If the price on the letter of intent will not change again, then we have enough silver on hand." ”
Qi Siye sneered and said: "The price we offered is already extremely kind, and we have signed a letter of intent, if those houseowners by the lake temporarily raise the price, is it true that the brothers of our fish and dragon gang are a group of good men and women?"
Ning Que liked Qi Siye's statement very much, and said: "The silver ticket will probably be sent over later, and when the time comes, I will trouble you to sign the documents with the owner of the house." ”
Qi Siye was a little surprised, and said, "Whose name is written?"
Ning Que said: "Write the name of the second brother first. ”
Children of the rivers and lakes, it is not uncommon for family wives to be entrusted to their brothers, and Qi Siye said without hesitation: "Okay." ”
Ning Que said: "Can this matter be kept secret?"
Qi Siye said: "Let's see how long you need to hide it." ”
Ning Que calculated the time and said, "This winter at the latest." ”
Qi Siye said: "There is no problem. ”
Leaving the Xicheng Silver Hook Gambling House, Ning Que and Sang Sang did not go back to Lao Bizhai directly, but came to Yanming Mountain.
The two of them looked at the lake below the mountain, and at the few courtyards on the other side of the lake.
The reason why I bought these courtyards is because today's old Bizhai is too lively, although Ning Que likes the lively atmosphere of Linxi Lane 47 very much, but after the visit of the Heavenly Oracle Divine Seat, it is clear that there is no way to continue to live there.
I bought all the courtyards by the lake, the picture is quiet, and there are some more important reasons, but there is no need to let others know those reasons.
Sangsang looked at the houses on the other side and asked, "We will live here in the future?"
Ning Yi nodded and said, "After winter, this lake will freeze relatively strongly. ”
