Chapter 12 Wei Wu De Xin
Jing Kee real estate in the tooth line.
The old agent recommended two cheaper houses, and when he saw that the father and son were still silent, he knew that they had no money.
He put away the room list in his hand without a trace, and asked quietly: "Xianggong just shook his head, it seems that the villain's recommendation is not in the eyes of the law." ”
"Your recommendations are very good," Zhao Shouzheng hesitated for a while, and said embarrassedly: "Helpless, 'the whole family is in the autumn wind, and the clothes are not cut in September'......"
"Uh, what do you mean?" The old broker, the second monk, was confused. "It's only February, so it's September."
"What my father means is that we don't have much money and can't afford to rent a house that is too expensive." Zhao Hao explained helplessly.
"I see." The old agent shook his head, and there was a greasy taste in his heart, these poor books want to save face in life and death, and they say the poor word so clearly.
He picked up another house list, handed it to the father and son, and said, "The house above here is cheaper, Xianggong can find it himself." ”
After saying that, he didn't say hello, so he got up and went to the back to drink tea.
"What a face!" Zhao Shouzheng muttered unhappily. "People who ignore common sense in the past dare to throw their faces."
"Just get used to it." Zhao Hao comforted and looked through the stack of room sheets.
Zhao Shou is a casual goods, so when he saw this, he withdrew his gaze and drank tea leisurely. In the blink of an eye, forget about the unhappiness.
After a while, Zhao Hao made a decision, pointed to a room sheet and said, "Go here and have a look." ”
~~
Half an hour later.
The old agent drove the carriage and drove the father and son to Caijia Lane, which was ten miles away from Guozijian.
Zhao Hao and his son jumped out of the car, followed the old agent into an alley, walked a few steps inside, and arrived outside a small courtyard in a dilapidated state.
"That's it." The old broker pulled out the key and dealt with the rusty iron lock on the door.
Looking at the wind-blown and rotten courtyard gate and the crumbling adobe wall, both father and son looked embarrassed.
Easily, the old broker unlocked the door and squeaked open the door.
"Come in and see, what a spacious yard."
The father and son went into the courtyard with a hard head, only to see the courtyard full of stumps and fallen leaves, and the house lacked windows and tiles, leaked wind and rain, and was unimaginably dilapidated.
"This, can also live people?" Zhao Shouzheng coughed again and again, and asked the old agent in surprise.
"This is Nanjing City, and you can't rent a decent house for two or two months!" The old agent rolled his eyes and said: "There are three main houses in the independent courtyard, two wings in the east and west, less than ten miles away from the Guozijian, and I only accept you one or two pieces of silver a month, what do you want to do?" Can't live in vain? ”
"Speak well, don't be yin and yang!" Zhao Hao snorted coldly and said, "If you talk nonsense, we'll go to another house to rent a room." ”
"Good and good......" is too good to do anything, not to mention that the broker also posted the car and horse money, how could it ruin the business for the benefit of the tongue?
"It's too bad to live in." Zhao Hao seemed to be very dissatisfied, and said to Zhao Shouzheng: "Let's take another look." ”
"If you want to find something cheaper, you have to go to Nanjing." After dealing with two poor ghosts for so long, the old agent is already very impatient, how can he continue to pay for the car.
"Isn't it just a long time since I cleaned it? Cleaning is not the same as living? The old agent was bent on promoting, and while pushing the door of the hall, he said: "Look inside, how ...... furniture is."
Before he could finish speaking, the door of the hall collapsed.
With a bang, the house was dusty, and the father and son hurriedly covered their noses and retreated.
When the old agent came out with a disgraced face, Zhao Hao sneered: "There is no door, how can you still live in people?" ”
"Can't you just cultivate it yourself?" The old agent patted the ashes on his body in embarrassment and coughed repeatedly.
"You'd better fix it, and then rent it." Zhao Hao resolutely pulled his father out.
"Don't, don't go!" The old agent hurriedly caught up and said with a bitter face: "Count me as a recipient, the rent doesn't have to be paid annually." Bet one and pay three, as long as you pay four taels of silver, you can move in immediately, this is all right? ”
Zhao Hao was happy in his heart, the so-called suspicious goods are the buyers. He actually wanted to rent the house. The old broker was right, it was impossible to rent a house with a single courtyard within ten miles of Guozijian at this price.
What's more, the father and son have a total of more than a dozen taels of silver, even if they rent here, if they pay it every year as usual, they won't even have money left for food. Now that you can live in it with only a small amount of rent, what difficulties can you not overcome?
Pack up, you can always stay!
Well, it seems that the old broker also said this.
"Son, don't be too reluctant......" Zhao Shouzheng pulled Zhao Hao aside, and said with a face full of unbearable: "Since you don't want to, let's look elsewhere......"
"I don't dislike it, I said it deliberately in order to pay less money." Zhao Hao explained helplessly.
"I see, cunning, oh no, witty!" Zhao Shouzheng suddenly realized, and said to the old broker:
"Rent this!"
~~
After settling down, Zhao Shouzheng followed the carriage of the old broker and went back to the tooth store to handle the delivery. Zhao Hao stayed in the small courtyard.
He saw that the courtyard was dilapidated and desolate, and there was no place to sit, and a sense of absurdity swelled in his heart.
The encounter in the past few days is really like falling into a dream, I thought that the time would come to run, and finally became the eldest young master, who can happily spend all day drinking, bullying men and women, and can have a soft meal to eat at the worst. Who knew that in a blink of an eye, it fell into such a field......
But no matter how long he sighs, he can't change any reality. After being lost for a while, Zhao Hao shook his spirits, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to clean up first.
But he searched all the rooms, but he could not find a broom.
Looking at the three-legged chairs and two-legged beds in the room, Zhao Hao didn't even have the strength to smile bitterly. Sure enough, it was from Nanjing to Beijing, and the money that was bought was not sold, and it is estimated that this house is really not rented, so the old broker will take the initiative to give in.
Back in the courtyard, Zhao Hao remembered that there was a blacksmith shop at the entrance of the alley, so he was going to borrow some guys to come back.
Zhao Hao stood at the door of the shop and looked inside, only to see that the hearth was extinguished, and the tools for striking iron were also hung on the wall, and it seemed that it was not open.
However, he heard a few coughs from the old man inside, obviously someone.
After a little hesitation, Zhao Hao stepped in, and was just about to ask in a loud voice if anyone was inside?
Before he could speak, the black cotton curtain was lifted, and a burly, fierce and vicious man sent out a man dressed as a doctor with a medicine box on his back.
"Alas, my father's illness is incurable." The doctor twisted his goatee and whispered to the strong man with a serious expression.
The strong man was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then stammered: "Will it cost you a life if you make a swing?" ”
"Alas, it's been too long......" The doctor shook his head, as if blaming him for not looking for himself sooner.
The strong man's eyes were red, and he held back for a while before he said with a crying voice: "I didn't dare to delay." In the past few days, the doctor has seen a lot of medicines, and he has also grabbed more than a dozen pairs of medicines, but they are all ineffective. ”
"There's no way, if you're a doctor, you can't heal your life, so let's prepare for your father." The doctor said as he lifted his foot over the threshold and was about to go out.
Zhao Hao, who had been ignored by the two of them, suddenly interjected: "Have you used Artemisia annua?" ”
Only then did the doctor discover that there was another person in the blacksmith shop. He is a medical authority on this street, how can he allow this yellow-mouthed child to question himself?
He stood still, looked at Zhao Hao with a gloomy face, and said, "If you don't know how to pretend to understand, the treatment of malaria in "Behind the Elbow" is Artemisia annua. What kind of medicinal herb is Artemisia annua, I have never heard of it at all. ”
Zhao Hao was just about to open his mouth to explain, but he continued to scold him coldly: "What's more, doctors for thousands of years have repeatedly verified that using Artemisia annua can't cure malaria at all. ”
"Of course, Artemisia annua can't cure malaria, but Artemisia annua can." Zhao Hao said confidently.
