Chapter 475: House Slave Four
Fan Zhijin, who has been working in Pang Kuan's family for almost a year, also borrowed a tattered carriage today, loaded it with two thousand taels of silver, and came to the Republic Building early in the morning to queue up to buy a house.
After working in the family of the huge Dudu Zhi (who is even bigger than the Duzhi, who was just promoted after the death of the Empress Dowager Xiang) for less than a year, Fan Zhijin actually saved a fortune that he couldn't even imagine when he was a genius in Yanggu County!
So much money, of course, is not the salary that Pang Kuankai gave him. His salary in the Pang family was set according to the salary from the Jiupin General Shilang, 12 taels a month, 144 taels a year, no additional subsidies and rewards, but food and lodging were all free.
As for his errand in the Pang family, he taught Pang Xiaolangjun from several famous mansions to read, and also served as Pang Kuan's scribe, copying and writing, and he had no real power at all.
But I don't know what's going on, it's just that every once in a while, someone stuffs private friends or salt and tea into his hands...... There are often some officials, chamberlains, and businessmen who come to visit Da Da Zhi, as long as they bump into him, who is rustic and speaks a famous word (Yanggu County is on the edge of the Daimyo's mansion, the accents of the two places are very close, and Fan Zhijin can also imitate the Daimyo's accent in order to pretend to be a big celebrity), they all think that it is Pang Kuan's confidant and close relative. So, the fifty-hundred-hundred-year-old meeting gift was stuffed over, and I didn't want Fan Xiucai to do anything, just begged him not to do anything bad.
In less than a year, Fan Zhijin has become wider, and there are two or three thousand surplus money on hand - this is really a bit of a big disaster, and there will be a blessing! Those who have won the Jinshi, unless they marry the daughter of the upside down, who can save two or three thousand yuan in less than a year? Even being a corrupt official is not as fast!
Moreover, the corruption and bribery of officials are managed by the Yushitai, and Fan Zhijin is a tutor and scrivener, and the Yushitai can't control it.
And Fan Zhijin is a dutiful son, and when he has some money in his hand, he thinks of the old lady and son who are still suffering in Liangshanbo. So he took advantage of the New Year's Festival to go to Yunzhou, contacted Zhao Tieniu, and asked him to tell the head of Chao and the head of Song.
After returning to Kaifeng Mansion, I saw the tricks of Wanjia Real Estate Company in the "Oiran" album, so I decided to buy a two-bedroom suite of 2,000 yuan in Fengqiu Gate for the old lady and her son to live in. and then put his family's household in Kaifeng Mansion, so that he could take the Kaifeng Mansion Liberation Test in two years, and he would not be able to go back to the Daimyo Mansion.
But what he didn't expect was that in the magical place of Kaifeng Mansion, there were so many people who could pull a cart of evil money to buy a small house! He didn't come to line up in the middle of the night, and he didn't go to the back door (he knew that Wanjia Real Estate was the industry of Wu Haogu, where did he dare to go through the back door?) Fan Zhijin looked at the long, unsightly team in front of him, and was a little dumbfounded.
There are so many people who want to buy a house, is the house in the hands of that profiteer in Wu Haogu enough to sell? No, you have to count them......
……
The queue to buy a house is finally starting to move forward, but not very quickly. Because Wu Haogu set a rule in tricks, he only accepted the personal relations issued by the silver collar and the Pan family's gold and silver silk silk cloth shop (because the price of salt tea fluctuates quite a lot, and the copper coins are too troublesome to count). Most of the buyers did not deposit money in the Pan's gold, silver, silk and silk shop, so they came with boxes of silver, and the silver collars had to be counted one by one, so the transaction was relatively slow.
By the way, although there was no silver inflow from the Americas at this time, there were still tens of millions of taels of silver on the market in Kaifeng Prefecture. Therefore, silver collar has become a commonly used settlement tool for large transactions.
Another reason for the slow progress of the transaction is the signing of the contract on the spot. The reasons for the contract were all bought from Kaifeng Mansion, and the officials of Kaifeng Mansion were invited to witness on the spot, and the procedures can be described as very complete. In addition, it was also arranged for the guys of Wanjiaxing to explain the process of prepaying the deposit and delivering the property and paying off the full amount to each customer who bought the house - after all, the sale of off-plan housing is estimated to be the first time in the Northern Song Dynasty, and it must be explained clearly to others.
No matter how you explain it, there is no way to conjure up enough real estate to satisfy everyone. Today's plate is just a little bit, 100 sets of shikumen, 240 sets of tube buildings, and 80 shops, a total of 420 units, at least one-third of which also opened the back door to a related household, leaving less than 300 sets, of which less than 240 are residential......
But that's not enough!
Just when the line in front of me was getting shorter and shorter, and it was about to be Fan Zhijin's turn, I suddenly saw a fat man in a green official uniform with a few small guys holding a plate of posts that I didn't know came out of the Republic Building.
This fat man is the big shopkeeper of the Republic Bank and Wanjia Real Estate Bank (now Christie's has Li Tang and Mo Niangzi taken over) Su Dalang, and he also has an official body from the third class of Jiupin, which was given when he married his wife - he married the county lord of the Zhao family, and there is no dowry, and he has to give a large dowry, and the advantage is to send a military official from Jiupin. So he came out today in a military attache uniform to greet a group of customers who didn't buy a house.
But even if he is the shopkeeper of the largest commercial house in Kaifeng Mansion and the son-in-law of the old Zhao family, there are still many people who don't buy it among the Jinshi masters who came to buy a house today and the masters of the Sanya Forbidden Army.
"Why isn't there any?"
"You republican can't bully customers! How much has it sold? ”
"Yes, we all came to line up early in the morning with silver, and the northwest wind drank enough for two or three hours, and it was just there, why is there no more?"
"If you don't have a house, you're selling a fart! Don't think that you Republic Store can bully people......"
Su Dalang didn't know how awesome a CEO of his level would be in later generations, anyway, in Kaifeng Mansion in the Song Dynasty, no matter how big a businessman was, he couldn't forget the rule of making money with harmony. So Su Dalang was not angry when he was scolded, and he explained with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes...... You come to buy a house with so much money, how can you not have it? ”
Su Dalang first calmed people's hearts, and then said with a smile on his face: "It's just that we didn't expect the house to sell so well...... Isn't this the first time? So poorly prepared. But if you don't buy a house this time, you will definitely buy it next time. Leave your name and a place to live, and when you have a house next time, we will definitely send someone to the door, and we will not bother you to go through. ”
This is true, but I don't know when the promise given will be fulfilled, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is empty words.
In this set, the little military attache Xiao Wuchen who won the forbidden army, and the little civil official who was born as a jinshi were embarrassed to coax him on the street, but he couldn't deceive Fan Zhijin, who had long seen through the true colors of the ancient profiteer and adulterer of Wuhao.
He had just counted the carriages lined up in front of him, and there were more than two hundred or so in the sky...... There are 400 dozens of properties for sale today!
How could it be otherwise?
It must be that the profiteer Wu Haogu saw that the house was easy to sell, and wanted to cover the house and coax it!
"That's not right!" Fan Zhijin immediately roared, "I counted just now, there are only 253 carriages in total, how can it be possible to sell 420 houses?" Is it that your family Wu Dalang is looking at the house and holding back the price increase? ”
It didn't matter if he went down with this voice, the customers who had been fooled by Su Dalang also felt that something was wrong for a while, and they also shouted.
"yes, are you going to raise the price?"
"You profiteers, how dare you deceive customers like this!"
"What about Wu Dalang? Tell him to come out and make it clear! ”
"If he doesn't make it clear, we will go to Kaifeng Mansion to sue him!"
"Sue him! Sue him......"
The scene that was almost in the past is now chaotic for no reason.
But if you go to Kaifeng Mansion to complain, Wu Haogu is not afraid...... As a profiteer whose soul has crossed over from the afterlife, Wu Haogu's sense of the legal system is still very strong. He won't rely on Zhao Ji's backstage to throw aside the laws of the Great Song Dynasty.
After Christie's became bigger, he hired a lot of money to hire the "lawyer team", and the ten best lawyers in Kaifeng Prefecture were either hired full-time by the Republic Bank or part-time in the Republic Bank. All the contract warrants of the Republic, including its subordinate firms, were drafted by these gold medals.
Sensei said that going to Kaifeng Mansion to file a lawsuit is to go to Dali Temple to fight a lawsuit, and the Republic Bank is also a sure winner...... And did the Republic really sell out the house, and it still violated the king's law after all the houses were sold?
But in the Great Song Dynasty, there is not only the law, but also the blue sky!
Qingtian Lu Jia asked, at this time, he was still drinking tea and chatting with people in the official pavilion with great interest! The topic of today's chat is "government-run industry and commerce", which is what Lu Jiawen likes to talk about the most.
And in the afternoon, An Tao, who recommended him to be the secretary of the Taifu Temple, also came to take over the official pavilion, and the two Qingtian, who both advocated government-run industry and commerce, got together, so it wasn't endless.
Although the implementation effect of the "City Change Law" in the Xining and Yuanfeng years was not satisfactory, Lu Jiawen and An Tao still believed that this Dafa was the most commendable new law in Xining's new policy.
It was also a panacea for solving the economic and national defense problems of the Great Song Dynasty - because the root cause of the economic and national defense problems of the Great Song Dynasty was, in their view, the result of the excessive development of private industry and commerce and the excessive annexation of land.
And industrial and commercial development is the root of land annexation! Merchants or officials engaged in industry and commerce would buy land on a large scale when they had money, and they would also manipulate prices, hoard, and issue usury, forcing a large number of peasant households to bankrupt, and land became more and more concentrated.
The concentration of land made it impossible to implement the township soldier system, and the state had to spend huge sums of money to raise soldiers, thus falling into a financial quagmire from which it was difficult to extricate itself.
Therefore, the key to solving all problems is government-run industry and commerce!
When the two bigwigs were discussing with relish how to use government-run industry and commerce to restore the township military system, Lu Jiawen's son Lu Benzhi hurriedly walked into the official reception pavilion and reported an incident that could prove the serious mistakes of private industry and commerce - the evil republican hoarding and hoarding, which caused public indignation!
