ps: See the big reward again, congratulations to Brother Enlightened on his promotion to the master, and Brother Poor Dao wishes Brother Enlightened to double his stock speculation! At the same time, I continue to thank my friends for their encouragement from monthly passes.

Zhao Ran wandered around the mansion, but compared to the last time, this time he looked at it much more carefully and seriously. The house has been re-swept by the guys, some of the peeling paint has been repainted, and the torn window paper has been replaced, and it looks brand new.

Li Laoshi followed Zhao Ran's side, holding a pen and paper in his hand, and wrote down Zhao Ran's pointing, what needs to be replaced, what is purchased, and after coming down, he has to prepare according to Zhao Ran's requirements.

The deed has been secured in Kaifeng Mansion and is classified under the name of Cheng Ji, and the house has been pocketed, with a total cost of 6,000 taels, including 300 taels for the purchase of Liang Xingxia's rented courtyard.

Whether this business is lost or earned, Mr. Li now feels a little confused, obviously Liang Xingxia promised to buy the house for 5,000 taels of silver, but the owner spent an extra 1,000 taels, isn't this a loss? But after thinking about it, he talked with the other party for a long time, and he only pressed the price to 6,800 taels and could no longer suppress it, but now he spent 800 taels less, from this point of view, it seems that he has made another profit - not to mention that the remaining 5,700 taels of silver have not been paid yet, and Liang Xingxia said that he would not accept the mortgage of Daming silver when he died. 8 votes, he shouted that he could absolutely trust his brother!

"Let people tidy up the cross-hospital, and we will move to the cross-hospital in the future......"

"Yes......"

"This head needs to be changed as soon as it enters the main courtyard...... Well, the wings on both sides have their doors removed and the compartments opened...... The same is true for the main house, all of which are opened...... Make some wooden shelves and nail them in the room as shelves, hmm. I'll go back and draw a picture of this for you...... Set up a platform in the middle of the field......"

"Ahh

"Hmm...... It can also be said that you can just set up the stage, with your back to the gate and facing the wings on three sides...... In general, there is only one requirement, the wood selected must be good. At least it can't be worse than the wood of the original house in this house. ”

Li honestly asked: "The owner, we don't have enough cash, even if the goods are sold, we have to return them to Liang Xingxia, there is not much left, should I go again? It will take almost a month to rebuild the house, just so I will go back and forth?"

Zhao Ran thought about it, nodded and said, "It's okay, we will make a living in Xingqing Mansion in the future." It's not like before, you go back and make arrangements, and strive to send goods here once a month. Man, you take half of it back, just leave me a few yards to guard, Cheng Qi will also go back with you, this is Xingqing Mansion, it's useless for them to keep it, and they can't help if something really happens. ”

Zhao Ran originally wanted to continue to renovate the second and third courtyards. and the back garden, but since the silver is not enough. I simply bet it back. Although there is a large amount of gold and silver in the storage wrench, the public is public and private, and let him advance the silver for the Oriental Gift, and his consciousness is not yet at this point.

In fact, Zhao Ran had made a plan before he came, quietly built a shop, and then immersed himself in cultivation. I didn't have the leisure to deal with these things at all, and after the days passed, I waited for the handover with the newcomer, and then returned to Daming safely.

It's a pity that a person's personality and habits can't be changed if he wants to, Zhao Ran is busy and can't let go of things in his heart. When something really happens, it is habitual to plunge headlong into it, regardless of whether it is beneficial to oneself or not, and to do the thing well first and then talk about the rest.

Just like this time, when it came time to build a shop, he was focused on choosing a suitable location, and after finding a suitable place, he pondered how to bargain, and when he bargained, he felt that Liang Xingxia could be paid, so he tried to find a way to envelop him. After the house was in hand, he began to think about how to do a good job in the business and lay the foundation of the shop......

Li Laoshi and Cheng Qi left Xingqing Mansion with half of their men, they wanted to rush back to Daming to organize the second batch of supplies, and at the same time find a way to normalize the supply channels, there were too many things waiting for them to do. Zhao Ran stayed and continued to discuss with Li Laoshi how to renovate the mansion.

When the renovation of the first house was completed, Liang Xingxia came to the door, he really couldn't hold on, and even the debt of 5,000 taels of silver with interest had to be repaid within a time limit, but Zhao Ran had not given him the silver from the sale of the ancestral house.

"Brother, I don't know...... Not...... That ......" Liang Xingxia twisted and pinched, his face was scowled, as if he had done something wrong.

Zhao Ran knew his intention as soon as he heard it, in fact, he didn't come, and Zhao Ran had to ask him for help when he turned around for many things, but he hadn't started selling goods yet, and there was indeed no silver to pay Liang Xingxia, so he had delayed so far. Because he said: "My goods have not been sold, and there is no cash at present, Brother Liang, has your debt due arrived?"

Liang Xingxia was very disappointed, but he couldn't save face and urged him, and said with a forced smile: "Ah, yes, hehe, it's okay, it's okay, my brother sold the goods to me, don't worry, I'll think of a way to repay the debt." ”

Can you not be in a hurry? Liang Xingxia was about to cry.

Zhao Ran observed his words and looks, and knew that Liang Xingxia might not have a good time, so he thought for a while and said, "Brother Liang, you have never talked about creditors, I don't know who your creditors are?"

When it came to this, Liang Xingxia had nothing to hide, and told Zhao Ran one by one at the moment.

Although Liang Xingxia's branch has declined, he is a descendant of the clan after all, and he still wears the aristocratic hat of Lu Ze. Moreover, when his father was alive, he also held a prominent position, and promoted and took care of many old ones.

Now that the world is hot and cold, even the Liang clan doesn't care about Liang Xingxia, and it's not uncommon for these old things to be avoided by him. It's just that there are hundreds of people of all kinds, some of whom speak coldly to Liang Xingxia, some who are strangers, some who are indifferent, and naturally there are also those who are willing to lend a hand to help with the benefits in mind -- the five thousand taels of silver were borrowed from these people.

Now that the loan period has arrived, although these people have not yet begun to collect money, how can Liang Xingxia, as a person, not repay the loan? He is more anxious than the creditor, so he thinks of selling his ancestral house.

According to Liang Xingxia, the largest loan came from one of his father's old subordinates, a total of 3,000 taels! And this old subordinate is Yin Gao Huai'en of Kaifeng Mansion, who is now in charge of Xingqing Mansion (Xia Mu Song system, in the name of the government of Kaifeng Mansion as the national capital Xingqing).

Zhao Ran pondered for a moment and asked, "Is Brother Liang familiar with this Gaofu Yin?"

Liang Xingxia said: "Uncle Gao is an elder, and he is familiar, but he is now in a high position, busy with affairs, and it is easy to see each other." Brother wants to see Gao Fu Yin? Do you want to ask Gao Fu Yin for help? Then you don't have to see him, I am willing to do it, or I can invite Gao Yanei, as long as he is willing to help, it is the same. ”

Zhao Ran said: "It is for Brother Liang's debt and silver matter, there are some things that Brother Liang is not easy to say, I will explain it for Brother Liang." After all, the cause is mine, and it is I who don't have the money...... I bothered Brother Liang to work hard, and asked this Yanei to come out and see him, I don't know if it's inconvenient?"

Liang Xingxia breathed a sigh of relief: "It's naturally good that my brother is willing to come forward, thank you brother." He smiled bitterly again, "My family is so down, and it's not easy to climb that old relationship, but it's okay to ask Gao Yanei to come out and see each other." ”

"This high government is ......"

"It's Uncle Gao's son-in-law, and now he is serving in Yiwei Sima Junzuowei, and he grew up with me when he was a child. ”

Zhao Ran sighed in his heart, there is nothing to say about this Liang Xingxia's loyalty, but it is a bit roundabout, and he doesn't want to climb with such a big friendship, he really guards Jinshan and doesn't know it.

Two days later, it was still a restaurant in the alley next door, Zhao Ran and Liang Xingxia asked for a private room, ordered a table full of good wine and food, and waited for Gao Yanei.

Gao Yanei is three years younger than Liang Xingxia and five years older than Zhao Ran, with a thin figure and a very shrewd appearance. As soon as he entered the private room, he smiled and said to Liang Xingxia: "The third brother is really outside, and he hasn't come to the house to walk around in the past two years. ”

Liang Xingxia sighed and said, "Now that you are so down, how can you dare to go to Uncle Gao with a shy face." ”

Gao Yanei shook his head: "Third brother, you are really the same, you haven't changed at all...... It's also that I didn't care enough about my third brother before...... I just heard that you have broken the capital of your business, and you want to sell your ancestral house to pay off your debts? It's just a little silver, so why is this happening? If I hadn't asked someone to inquire about your current situation yesterday, I would have almost made a big mistake!"

Liang Xingxia said, "Da Lang, sit down first." ”

Gao Yanei said with a cold face: "Third brother, ...... slowly" His eyes turned and stared at Zhao Ran: "You want to buy the ancestral house of the Liang family? Are you a merchant from the Ming Kingdom?" I advise you to dispel this idea, this house is not for sale!" (To be continued......)
