Chapter 20: The Exquisite House

This will see Ji Yuan's groping movements, and see Ji Yuan's eyes clearly, the broker on the side found that Ji Yuan was actually a blind man, he didn't notice it on the road just now, and the shopkeeper next to him also found that the person who looked at the pen holder seemed to be a blind man.

"Uh, guest officer, do you like this tube?"

The shop guy felt a little embarrassed, after all, how could a blind man buy the four treasures of the study, so asking is a polite reminder that Ji Yuan should put down the pen holder, this cartridge is not cheap, if it falls, it will not be good.

This voice also brought Ji Yuan back to reality, and although he heard the cool of the guy's enthusiasm, he was not unhappy.

"This shopkeeper, how much does this pen holder cost?"

Because of what he said just now, he was coldly glanced at by Lu Chengfeng, and the shopkeeper realized his gaffe, so he would answer more respectfully.

"If you return to the guest officer, although this yellow flower pen holder is placed outside, it is very exquisite from the materials to the workmanship, Tong Suo is not bullied, two hundred dollars, out of Ning'an County, to other states and foreign mansions, it starts at the price of one or two silver!"

Whether two hundred yuan is expensive or not, there is no accurate concept of Ji Yuan, but it cost three yuan to eat a bowl of Yangchun noodles before, and this tube is worth sixty or seventy meals, if ordinary people cook by themselves, they should be able to afford a hundred meals, and it is not cheap.

Ji Yuan can now be regarded as having a huge amount of money, one hundred and fifty taels of silver is one hundred and fifty yuan, and there has always been 1,000 copper coins, and it is naturally more than enough to buy a pen holder, but there is no reliable economic source, Ji Yuan still searches and does not want to buy.

Originally, it was useless, in case you fell down in the future, these two hundred Wen could save your life!

In the past, the consumption concept of Ji Yuan was very conservative, and in addition to buying a game and buying a computer accessories throughout the year, it basically didn't cost a lot of money, which would be a little stressful, especially so.

As for feeling embarrassed if he doesn't buy something, this point has never been experienced, and the thickness of his face may be innate.

Ji Yuan put down the pen holder and stood up, nodding in the direction of the house broker.

"It's almost time to shop, let's go, let's look at the house." ”

"Oh, let's go this way, let's go to the east of the city first. ”

The broker walked ahead, and Ji Yuan followed.

Lu Chengfeng deliberately took a step behind, looked at the pen holder on the stall table, and took out a broken silver in the confusion of the shopkeeper.

"I want the pen holder. ”

The shopkeeper didn't expect to be able to make this business, and immediately took the broken silver with a smile.

"Wait a minute, the guest officer will pass the scales first, and then wrap it up for you!"

The shopkeeper quickly ran to the store with a pen holder and broken silver, and handed the broken silver to the shopkeeper, who took out a miniature scale and weighed the broken silver, and then took it on the abacus and snapped it a few times.

Seeing that Lu Chengfeng didn't mean to come in, after a while, the shopkeeper went outside with a thickly wrapped pen holder and change.

"Guest officer, you take it, the silver weighs 6 baht, which is 250 Wen, this is your change, ten as five treasures!"

When Wutongbao is a common saying among the common people, because this copper coin is equivalent to 5 small coins regardless of weight or face value, it should really be called Hongyuan Tongbao.

Lu Chengfeng didn't look at it, took the things and quickly chased after Ji Yuan and the broker, who were already a little far away.

。。。

From the morning to the noon, I walked several places, either the place is too remote or the place is too small, or the location is relatively noisy.

Ji Yuan has been led by the broker to the fifth position he sees today, which is located in the south of the city.

At a glance, there was a plaque on the door, and without waiting for Ji Yuan to ask, the broker had already begun to introduce.

"Mr. Ji, this is it, Ju'an Xiaoge, this place is satisfactory to you, the surrounding is quiet, the courtyard you enter, the courtyard has its own well, and the back door of the courtyard is connected to the vacant land is also this house, and the expansion is enough to build a big mansion for a large family!"

As he spoke, the broker looked up at the fiercest midday sun before pulling out the copper key and opening the copper lock on the door.

"Click... Squeak~~"

When the door was pushed open, puffs of dust fell.

"Ahem, ahem... Cough... It's been a long time since anyone lived..."

The broker waved his hand and patted himself, and then asked Ji Yuan and Lu Chengfeng to go in.

At this point, it can be regarded as making Ji Yuan a little excited, although his eyesight is not good, but he can vaguely see that this is the best house to see today.

The courtyard wall is not high, the gate is not very elegant, there are some small courtyards in the impression of Ji Yuan, there is a back door between the main house and the side room.

There is a well in the spacious yard, but it is covered with a large wooden cover, which should not be dusty and leaves for a long time, and there are a few round stones pressed on it to prevent the lid from falling off.

There is also a big tree in the yard, and the branches and leaves rustle in the wind, perhaps because of the presence of the shade of the tree, it is obviously cooler in the courtyard.

"There's a tree in the yard? What kind of tree?"

Ji Yuan suddenly asked the broker.

"Uh, you know there are trees?"

Ji Yuan smiled and pointed to his ears, then stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the big tree.

"The contemptible sense of hearing is still keen, and the trees want to be quiet and the wind does not stop. ”

"Sir, it's a date tree, and it looks quite old. ”

Lu Chengfeng took the lead and replied respectfully.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's a jujube tree, and you can eat a lot of fresh and sweet jujubes in autumn!"

The broker said with a smile.

"Let's go, let's look outside the back door. ”

Sometimes the broker forgets that the gentleman is blind and recalls this in some detail.

Outside the back door is a completely overgrown wasteland, and there are some abandoned vegetable fields and gourd racks, which should obviously be the place where the original owner's family grows some vegetables and fruits.

But the place is really not small, the outermost side has a circle of fences that can be crossed with one foot, which is regarded as a boundary, when the broker explains these, Ji Yuan even laughed and thought, the fence is expanding outward, is it a big circle for his own land?

Subsequently, the three of them went to see the main house in the courtyard and the kitchen and the like, the courtyard of the house is not big, although the house has a layer of dust, but the overall layout is sound and the house is elegant.

The furniture had been almost emptied, except for the largest main room, which had a bed and a table, and two stools.

To tell the truth, even in the 21st century of the previous life, let Ji Yuan live in such a place, as long as there is a net, and then arrange it a little, he is very willing.

When he returned to the yard after a walk, Ji Yuan's smile never retreated.

"Hey, hey, is Mr. satisfied, right? I knew that Mr. would definitely like this, and this house is cheap, only 36 taels of silver are needed to buy it, and such a house has such a spacious place, which one can't sell it for a hundred taels of silver!!"

"Huh, so cheap?"

Ji Yuan was a little surprised, of course he didn't know the housing prices here, but he would compare, the previous small bungalows and earth courtyards were also twenty or thirty taels.

This place is very obvious from the previous houses, and it is definitely not too much to double it by one or two times, and it can indeed be regarded as cheap if it is sold for less than forty taels.

"Hey, hey, hey, I don't know..."

The broker stumbled on a lame text, but he couldn't find a sentence to follow.

"Ahem, the original owner here has passed away a long time ago, and the current title deed is owned by the government, plus the place is relatively remote... It has never been sold, and those who have money may not be able to look at it, and ordinary people can't take out thirty or forty taels, so it is much more cost-effective to build the house by themselves, so it has not been sold here, and the government has not frequently reduced the price!"

"Oh!!, then I have to go to the county government in person if I want to buy it?"

"Sir, is this going to be bought?"

The broker looked at Ji Yuan expectantly and asked.

"Why don't you buy such a cheap and elegant house? It's just a little dirty, just clean it up!"

Ji Yuan smiled, and was in a very good mood.

"Okay, sir, you really have a vision!!, why don't you go to the county office together and give you the title deed?"

The broker obviously can't wait to get his hard-earned money, and he can get a commission of almost close to two taels for this business of more than 30 taels, which is not a small amount of money!

In fact, Ji Yuan is also about the same mentality, he always wants to get his favorite things quickly, in his previous life, he couldn't afford to buy a house and could only be envious, but in this life he is on the grade.

Lu Chengfeng on the side smiled.

"Mr. can go back to the inn to rest, and then go to the county government to comprador the deed with him!"

A young man who can do it, he has a future, Ji Yuan's heart is happy, and it is better not to have to run errands by himself.

"Well, there's a trip from Lao Lu Shaoxia. ”

"Mr. Ji is polite, let's send you back to the inn first!"

Ji Yuan feels that Lu Chengfeng's character can also mix well in the 21 st century, which is called being good at thinking about problems from the perspective of others.

。。。

Half an hour later, in a certain room in the courtyard of Ning'an County, the master of the county looked at Lu Chengfeng in surprise.

"Lu Shaoxia, do you really want to buy this house? live by yourself? You don't seem to be from Ning'an, right?"

After asking this, the master bookkeeper also looked at the broker surnamed Zhou, squinting and touching his beard, who was a little weak by him.

"What's the matter, Lord Bookkeeper, is there a problem with this house, will it collapse or will there be a dispute?"

The main book had such an expression and looked at Lu Chengfeng again.

"Lu Shaoxia, you are our benefactors in Ning'an County, I can't lie to you, to tell you the truth, this house is solid and elegant, but it is not well evaluated in the market, and the three owners within 7 years either died of illness or had an accident, especially the year before last, a scholar was found to have died in the courtyard, and no one has cared about Ju'an Xiaoge since then!"

As he spoke, the master bookkeeper also turned the book in his hand, which is not usually shown to outsiders, to face Lu Chengfeng, so that he could see the internal annotations of the official mansion above: It is rumored that this is a murderous mansion.
