After a moment of silence, he took out something from his sleeve and handed it to Pan An, explained a few words, and then lifted the curtain and walked out of the pavilion and walked towards the outside of Yishi Ju. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Pan An was stunned, grasped the thing, walked downstairs, and found the owner of Yishiju.
The boss of Yishiju knew that he was the only son of Master Chu of Dongcheng, and he was slightly stunned, took the seal he handed over, and only glanced at it, and the expression on his face suddenly changed drastically.
This seal is Xu Chen's private seal, and it rarely appears on his book, so few calligraphy and painting appraisers have seen it, but the boss has seen it next to the small line on the back of the bookmark.
The boss knew that everyone had been watching the auction in the pavilion, and when he saw Pan An showing his private seal, he thought that everyone was going to express his dissatisfaction and anger, and he couldn't help but be surprised, thinking that he had misjudged the matter of the book post being lost in the National Teacher's Mansion, and that little maid really stole it?
Immediately after Pan An's words, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Pan An motioned for him to lead him to the stage and invited the famous seller aside.
The people in the pavilion noticed the movement on the stage and gradually stopped talking and scolding.
The Southern Jin Dynasty Emperor stood on the edge of the railing with an expressionless face, looking at the stage, thinking that no matter how you Chaoyang people toss flowers, today's book sticker will inevitably be brought back to the Southern Jin Dynasty.
The boss clasped his fists and saluted the people in the pavilion on three sides, then cleared his throat and said, "The book sticker is confirmed to have been auctioned by Room A and No. 2 for 33,000 taels of silver." ”
There was silence in the pavilion, for no one had come to their senses.
Then someone reacted and immediately let out a puzzled snort.
Room A 2 is the attic where the steward of the royal university is located.
It's just that the bidding hasn't ended yet, why does Yishiju say that the book sticker is obtained by the bachelor's house?
The Southern Jin Dynasty Emperor Shang looked downstairs with a pale face, and asked in a cold voice: "Even if the bidding is terminated for some reason, it is also the most money I have paid, why does this calligraphy belong to someone else? Could it be that you Chaoyang people do business like this? Don't you even care about your face!" Pan An recalled what Xu Chen said before leaving, and after confirming that he didn't remember a single word, he looked at him and said mockingly: "How much money is amazing?"
"No matter how much money you have, I won't sell you. ”
"Because Mr. Xiao doesn't appreciate your face as the prince of the Southern Jin Dynasty. ”
The Biansai military camp has his reputation spreading, and the people in the streets and alleys of the capital city are talking about the knife at the side gate of the Doushan Sect, at this time, the people in the pavilion of a stone house, don't know what Mr. Big and Mr. Two are not, but how can they not know that Mr. Xiao is the master of the National Teacher's Mansion?
After Pan An said those words on the stage, the pavilion was quiet for a moment, and then suddenly there were cheers and excited applause.
The Southern Jin Dynasty Emperor Shang held the railing tightly with both hands, his face became extremely pale because of anger, and he stared at Pan An downstairs fiercely, shouting: "Who are you!"
Pan An held the fan with one hand, covered the back of his hand with the other, saluted the surroundings, and said: "I, Dongcheng Pan An, am the representative of Mr. ”
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: "You can sell the book stickers to anyone, but I don't sell them to you Southern Jin people, do you have any opinions?"
The Southern Jin Dynasty Emperor trembled with anger and reprimanded: "How can there be such a reason?"
The boss of Yishiju arched his hand and explained to him: "Today, the rules for the sale of the seven posts of the National Teacher's Mansion are special, and the rules that have been supplemented in advance have been sent to you, and you should know that you have the right to choose your 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 has the right to choose the buyer by themselves, it should be chosen by everyone, how can this person not know if it is really a representative to exercise the right?"
"What happened just now, did it spread to the National Teacher's Mansion? Could it be that everyone was here before? You Chaoyang people don't want to use these shameless means!"
The boss was silent for a moment and then smiled and said, "You are right, everyone was in the building before, but he had already left at this time, and before leaving, he entrusted this Mr. Chu to make a decision." ”
The Southern Jin Dynasty Emperor Shang was stunned for a moment.
As I said before, Xu Chen's reputation in the capital is too loud now, especially after slashing Liu Yiqing, his status in the hearts of Chaoyang people is even higher, and everyone wants to see his true face.
At this time, the dignitaries and nobles in the pavilion were already coming for his ink treasure, and when they heard that he was in the building before, they thought about the fate of the side, and they couldn't help beating their chests with regret.
I don't know who shouted, and dense footsteps suddenly sounded in the pavilion, and dozens of people lifted the bamboo curtain, and rushed down the wooden building with excitement and curiosity, chasing them outside the courtyard.
The book sticker has belonged to the Wang University Scholar's Mansion, the people in the field can't drink the chicken soup, of course they want to see how the old hen who boiled out the pot of chicken soup looks like, in the blink of an eye, a stone house people go to the empty building, the Southern Jin Dynasty Emperor Shang stood on the railing, his face was difficult to see the extreme, but he had nothing to say.
"Everyone, wait!"
"Wait, little sir...... 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 Xu Chen 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 the capital city that the seven calligraphy books auctioned by Yishiju were stolen by the little maid of the National Teacher's Mansion, and Xu Chen was present in person today, so he naturally denied this rumor in some aspects.
When the auction of Yishiju was in full swing, the little maid was in the quiet study in the backyard of the Silver Hook Gambling House in Xicheng, staring at the pile of papers on the table.
The papers on the table looked a little new, and the handwriting on them was not outstanding, let alone comparable to the books in the National Teacher's Mansion, 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 the title deeds of these houses, and the helper Qi Siye 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 calculation was completed, and the little maid put down the deed in her hand for the newly built three-entry mansion on the lakeshore, 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?
The little maid 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 respectfully reported: "According to the letter of intent a few days ago, the total amount is still 41,600 taels of silver. ”
This number is somewhat different from the number obtained by the little maid, but it is not much different.
Fourth Master Qi glanced at the little maid in surprise, thinking that he had only made so many mistakes based on his mental calculations, which was really remarkable.
The little maid 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 did not 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 price of housing and land under Yanming Mountain is indeed cheaper than other places in the capital, 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 capital government has also found someone to say, but you can't go too far, throwing snakes and rats, if people are stabbed in the court, it will probably be 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 the people of the capital who pay attention to the quality of life.
The land price and housing prices on the shore of Yanming Lake are the cheapest in the capital, and most of the houses by the lake are now 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, the little maid nodded and said, "The young master has already planned that the price will be raised. ”
In these days, Qi Siye has been asked by Xu Chen to secretly buy the house deed on the shore of Yanming Lake, as the leader of the largest gang in the capital, naturally there are countless subordinates to help him do this, but at this time, he still doesn't understand why Xu Chen wants 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." ”
The little maid said, "I don't know why the young master bought all the houses by the lake, probably because he coveted quiet and didn't want to be disturbed. ”
Qi Siye shook his head again and again, thinking that if it was really quiet, he didn't know how many quiet and beautiful places in the capital could build new houses, so why would he make such a big noise.
