After signing the lease contract, Han Ze paid the rent for March.

plus the intermediary fee for the tooth man Wang Fugui, a total of 14 taels and 5 yuan, no deposit.

Wang Fugui smiled happily, it seems that this order has not made any less money.

Han Ze didn't care about how much Wang Fugui earned, anyway, he was very satisfied with this house.

According to the purchasing power of the world's money, the rent is close to 5,000 yuan a month.

However, in fact, according to the silver price of his cost fee + processing fee of 7 yuan a gram, the house only cost a total of 5,000 yuan, and the average is only 1,700 yuan per month.

1,700 yuan, renting such a large set of courtyard houses in the center of the county is simply cheap to grandma's house.

Then he asked Wang Fugui, where to buy a servant?

When Wang Fugui heard this, he immediately recommended himself and said that he would help him handle these things throughout the process.

"Master Han, the maid and the cook's concierge are all necessary, and there is also a nursing home." Wang Fugui said like a treasure.

Han Ze asked Wang Fugui to talk about the difference on the grounds that he didn't understand it when he first came here.

Wang Fugui said: "Maids are divided into two categories, one is the personal maid, who is beautiful and can be used as a maid in the room, and is usually mainly responsible for Han Ye's dressing, eating and sleeping. If you behave well in the future, you can also take it as a concubine. ”

"The ordinary-looking personal maid assists the maid in the room to serve tea and pour water, make the bed, incense and deodorize, fetch water and scrub and so on."

"There is also a type of rough maid, who is mainly responsible for cleaning the yard, maintaining animals and plants, changing ordinary things and so on."

"The second is the little ......"

Wang Fugui told Han Ze in detail about the differences between various servants.

After listening patiently, Han Ze asked, "Ask you about something." ”

Wang Fugui bowed down and said, "Master Han, you say." ”

Han Ze: "How much do you know about those people in the rivers and lakes?" Tell me about it. For example, how powerful are their martial arts? Also, did you know that there are foreign guns in this world? ”

"Back to Han Ye, I know that there are craftsmen in the national capital city who specialize in making and selling that thing, and it seems that there are also in the capital city. It was said to be so powerful that it could knock an ordinary person in the head with a single shot. ”

"But it's very bulky, inconvenient to carry, and the process of loading the projectile is also cumbersome, flashy, and not as convenient as a knife and stick."

When Han Ze heard this, he nodded secretly in his heart, and it was really similar to what he thought.

Wang Fugui paused for a moment and said excitedly: "As for martial arts, it is amazing, for example, Master Huang, the head of the martial arts hall that he passed by just now, he can break a 20-centimeter-thick stone slab with one punch, easily carry a 500-kilogram stone lock, and jump into a three-zhang high wall." ”

"Oh, really?"

Han Ze was surprised when he heard this.

Not to mention breaking the stone the size of the grinding disc and carrying a 500-pound stone lock, jumping ten meters high, completely violating the laws of physics.

Can a person really jump that high?

"Master Han, it's true! Moreover, there are many boxers in Longshan County who are more powerful than Master Huang, such as Yuan Sihai, the current dart owner of Zhenwei Dart Bureau, and his Yuan family gun is invincible all over Longxi. Wang Fugui said.

Han Ze asked, "Is light better than a gun?" If he were to be replaced with a knife, would it still be so powerful? ”

When Wang Fugui heard this, he was silted for a while, "Uh...... It's hard to say. ”

"It is rumored that Lu Xiaochao, the owner of the Lu family's young pavilion, is also very powerful, and he has the true inheritance of his father, but the two have not compared."

After a pause, Wang Fugui said: "However, young masters like Yuan Dart Master and Lu Xiaochao are also non-influent characters in the entire Dacang Kingdom. ”

In the end, Wang Fugui couldn't help laughing, "Of course, this is all heard by villains, and it's not very clear how it is." ”

"Oh, can ordinary people practice?"

"Absolutely! It's just that the cost of learning martial arts is very high, and ordinary people can't afford that price. ”

Han Zexin asked about the cost of learning martial arts, and then his eyes flickered, and he asked, "I heard that there is a trick here, do you know what the situation is?" ”

"Uh......" Wang Fugui, who was originally smiling, instantly became hesitant when he heard the words, "That, Master Han, the government strictly decrees that no one is allowed to talk about it in private, and the little ones don't know much." ”

Han Ze couldn't help but tighten his heart when he saw Wang Fugui's flickering words, it seemed that most of them were really something.

His brow furrowed.

Martial arts masters can also use hot weapons to deal with, how to solve this invisible and insubstantial thing?

Thinking in his heart, he didn't continue to ask, "In this way, you can help me find a few maids to come over, as well as the cook and the porter, as for the little maid and the nursing home, there is no need for the time being." ”

Wang Fugui nodded immediately, "Okay Master Han, do you want to be local or out-of-town?" ”

"What's the difference between the two?"

"The local knows the roots, and it is more comfortable to use, but the disadvantage is that the price is more expensive; The background of the foreign country is more complicated, such as the maid of Gaoqiu country, there is a great famine in the west, and now there is no bark to eat outside the city, as long as you take care of food and shelter, how many or how many you want at the city gate, you can pick and choose, I don't need to say the shortcomings, Han Ye also understands. ”

Han Ze didn't understand much, but he still said in a good way: "Then it's local." ”

……

There are no people living in the courtyard for the time being, because the house needs to be cleaned again and furniture needs to be added, which will take at least two days.

Had a "big meal" at a nearby restaurant.

In the private room, there are five dishes and one soup, chicken, duck and fish, plus fruits after meals, a total of less than 200 Wen.

After eating, the guy in the restaurant brought him good tea, he threw two copper coins over, and the guy immediately groveled, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Gongzi, for rewarding ......"

The guy didn't recognize it, the young man in front of him, dressed like a dog and leisurely drinking tea, was the "Hanako" who was kicked out by him yesterday.

Han Ze's mentality has completely changed now, looking at the man's flattering appearance with his eyebrows lowered and bent down, not only does he not have any sense of guilt for humiliating people, but he has a kind of pleasure after revenge.

It's so cool to be rich.

After experiencing the happiness of having money, Han Ze became more and more eager to make money in his heart.

He really needs money right now.

Just like Wang Fugui said, local maids are really expensive, if they are bought out at one time, even if they are rough maids, each person will cost 30 taels of silver.

As for the personal maids, they are also divided into grades, ranging from 30 taels of silver to 50 taels of silver.

There are also porter cooks, which are not much cheaper.

As for employment, this is not a concern.

There are so many secrets on him, it is impossible to get close to people who can't control him.

There is also the study of martial arts.

Any martial artist is high and high, and he is very insecure.

Maybe he slept until midnight, and the green forest hero came in and cut off his head, robbing the rich and helping the poor.

As for buying a pistol for self-defense, this is not considered for the time being.

First of all, guns are not easy to buy, and secondly, even if they are bought, they are not very useful.

Those who say that a pistol within ten meters is fast and accurate, have never fired at all, let alone ten meters, and those who have not undergone professional training, more than 3 meters are basically masters of human strokes.

And 3 meters, with the skills of those martial arts masters, he has already died eighteen times.

After some careful consideration, Han Ze left the restaurant and returned to the inn.

"Master Han, you're back!" The shopkeeper greeted him warmly, "The hot tea has just been brewed for you and served it, if you need anything, you can tell me at any time." ”

Han Ze said, "Come here, I just have something to ask." ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he hurriedly followed upstairs.

There is a long viewing corridor upstairs, and you can see the commercial street along the lake not far away, and the scenery is pleasant.

The shopkeeper came over and asked, "Master Han, you say." ”

Han Ze stood by the railing, turned his head and asked, "Do you know how much a pocket watch costs?" ”

When the shopkeeper heard this, he hurriedly said: "Master Han, the price of pocket watches is very expensive, the most ordinary ones cost hundreds of taels of silver, which is worth a good carriage, and the high-end goods imported from Nanyang are said to cost 1,000 taels a piece." ”

Speaking of 100 taels, the shopkeeper looked fantastical, and even he couldn't believe the price.

Han Ze was also secretly stunned when he heard this.

100 taels of silver, according to the purchasing power of the world's currency, that is 100,000 yuan, is indeed very expensive.

As for 1,000 taels, even if it is exchanged for the price of silver on the earth, it will cost hundreds of thousands......

"Okay, I know, you go first."

Han Ze sent the shopkeeper away, returned to the room, and took out the package hidden under the bed.

There were twenty taels of silver inside, as well as pocket watches, gloves, magnifying glasses, wigs, and other items.

As for the food he had bought, he threw it away on the way here.

Now that I have money and am in the city, I don't have to worry about going hungry.

I opened the package and checked it, and there was no shortage of anything, so I took out all the things and put some broken silver on my body in case of emergency.

He then left the inn.
