Chapter 20: Exquisite small house

This will see Ji Yuan groping, and see Ji Yuan's eyes clearly. The broker next to him realizes that Ji Yuan is actually blind. He didn't notice it on the road just now, and the shop assistant next to him also noticed that he was looking at the pen holder. is blind.

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

The shop assistant felt a little embarrassed. After all, how could a blind man buy the Four Treasures of the Studying Room? To ask such a question is to politely remind Ji Yuan to put down the pen holder. The pen holder is not cheap, and it would be bad if it fell.

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

"Brother in the shop, how much is this pen holder?"

Because of what he said just now, Lu Chengfeng gave him a cold look, and the shop assistant realized his gaffe, so he would answer more respectfully.

"If you return to the guest official, although this yellow flower pen holder is placed outside, it is very elegant from the material to the workmanship. The old man is not deceived, and two hundred pennies go out of Ning'an County to other states and foreign houses, and it is just one or two silver coins. Price starts!"

Two hundred cents is expensive or not, there is no precise concept of fate, but I spent three cents for a bowl of Yangchun noodles before. This bowl is worth sixty or seventy meals. If ordinary people cook by themselves, they should be worth a hundred. Come on, it's not cheap.

Ji Yuan can be considered to be carrying a huge sum of money now, 150 taels of silver is 150 yuan, and there is always 1,000 copper coins. It is more than enough to buy a pen holder, but there is no reliable source of income, Ji Yuan still does not want to buy. .

Originally, it was of no use. In case of despair in the future, these two hundred words could save lives!

In the past, Ji Yuan’s consumption concept was very conservative. Except for buying a game and buying a computer accessory, he basically didn’t spend a lot of money throughout the year, which would be a bit stressful and even more so.

As for asking if something would be embarrassing if he doesn't buy it, he has never experienced this. 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.

"We're almost done shopping, let's go, let's see the house."

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

The broker walked in front, and Ji Yuan followed.

Lu Chengfeng deliberately took a step behind, looked at the pen holder on the table, and took out a piece of silver from the doubts of the shop assistant.

"I want the pen holder."

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

"Wait a minute, guest, take a scale first, and then wrap it up for you!"

The shop clerk quickly ran into the store with a pen holder and broken silver, and handed the broken silver to the shopkeeper. The latter took out a mini scale to weigh the broken silver, and then put it on the abacus and counted it a few times.

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

"Guest officer, you can take it. The silver weight is 6 baht, which is 250 wen. This is your change. Ten will be the five treasures!"

When Wutongbao is a common saying, because this copper coin is equivalent to 5 pennies in both weight and face value, it should really be called Hongyuan Tongbao.

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

. . .

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

Under the leadership of the broker, Ji Yuan has reached the fifth position that he is looking at today, which is in the south of the city.

At a glance, there was a plaque on the gate. Before Ji Yuan asked, the broker had already begun to introduce it.

"Mr. Ji, this is it, Ju'an Pavilion, this place is all you need, the surrounding is quiet, the courtyard has its own water well as soon as you enter it, and the open space connected to the back door of the courtyard is also this house. If it is expanded, it will be enough to build a large family. People's big house!"

Having said that, the broker looked up at the fiercest sunlight at noon, then took out the copper key and unlocked the copper lock on the door.

"Crack... squeak~~"

When the door was opened, a puff of dust fell.

"Cough, cough... cough... no one has lived for a long time..."

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

At this point, Ji Yuan felt a little excited. Although he had poor eyesight, he could vaguely see that this was the best house to see today.

The walls of the courtyard are not high, and the door is not very elegant. It looks like a small quadrangle courtyard in Ji Yuan's impression, with a back door between the main room and the side room.

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

There is also a big tree in the yard, the branches and leaves swaying in the wind and making rustling noises, perhaps because of the shade of the tree, it is obviously cooler in the yard.

"Is there 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 ear, then pointed to the direction of the tree.

"My lord's hearing is still sharp, the trees want to be quiet but the wind is unceasing."

"Sir, it's a jujube tree, it looks quite old."

Lu Chengfeng took the lead and answered respectfully.

"Yes, yes, it's a jujube tree. You can eat a lot of sweet jujubes in autumn!"

The broker said with a smile.

"Come on, let's look outside the back door."

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

Outside the back door is a wasteland overgrown with weeds. There are also some abandoned vegetable fields and gourd racks. Obviously, it should be the place where the original owner grew vegetables and fruits.

But the place is really not too small. There is a fence on the outermost side that can be crossed with one foot, which is regarded as a boundary. When the broker explained this, Ji Yuan even thought funny, if the fence was expanded outwards, it would be the same as my own land. Big circle?

Afterwards, the three of them went to see the main house and the kitchen in the courtyard. The courtyard of the house is not big. Although the house is covered with a layer of dust, it can be regarded as a well-structured and elegant house.

The furniture was almost half empty, only the largest main room had a bed, a table, and two stools.

To be honest, even in the 21st century of the last life, he was very willing to let Ji Yuan live in such a place, as long as there was a net and a little arrangement.

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

"Hey, sir, are you satisfied? I knew that sir would definitely like this, and this house is still cheap. You only need 36 taels of silver to buy it. This kind of house has such a spacious place, which one can't sell it for 100 taels! "

"Huh? So cheap?"

Ji Yuan was a little surprised. Of course, he didn't know the house prices here, but he would compare them. Those small bungalows and courtyards in the past also cost twenty or thirty taels.

This place is very different from those of the previous houses. It is definitely not too much to double or double it, and it can be considered cheap if it is only sold for less than forty taels.

"Hey, cough, sir, don't know something..."

The broker's crappy text crepe for a while, but he couldn't find any vernacular words to follow.

"Cough, the original owner of this place has long since passed away, and the current house deed is owned by the government, and the place is relatively remote... It has never been sold. The rich may not be able to see it, and ordinary people can't get three or four. Twelve taels, it is much more cost-effective to build the house yourself, so it has not been sold here, and the government has not frequently cut prices!"

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

"Sir, are you planning to buy it?"

The broker looked expectantly at Ji Yuan 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 good mood.

"Okay, sir, you are really insightful! Why don't we go to the county office together while it's still early, and hand over the property deed?"

The broker can't wait to get his hard-earned money. For a business of more than 30 taels, UUkanshu www.uukanshu.com can get nearly 20 taels of commission, which is not a small sum of money!

In fact, Ji Fate has a similar mentality. He always wants to get what he likes quickly. In his previous life, he couldn't afford a house and could only be envious. In this life, he is on a high level.

Lu Chengfeng on the side smiled.

"Sir, you can go back to the inn to rest, and let Chengfeng go with him to the county government office to buy the house deed!"

The young man who can do it has a bright future. Jiyuan is happy, and it's better not to have to run errands by yourself.

"Alright then, Lu Shaoxia will come for a trip."

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

On the road, the future is boundless! Ji Yuan felt that Lu Chengfeng's character could also get along well in the 21st century, which is called being good at thinking about problems from the perspective of others.

. . .

Half an hour later, in the Ning'an county government office, in a certain room of the side courtyard, the chief clerk below the county magistrate 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, do you?"

After asking this question, the master clerk also looked at the broker surnamed Zhou, squinting and rubbing his beard, who was a little guilty in his eyes.

"What? Master Chief, is there something wrong with this house? Will it collapse or is there a dispute?"

With such an expression as expected, the master looked at Lu Chengfeng again.

"Lu Shaoxia, you are the benefactors of our Ning'an County, I can't lie to you, to tell you the truth, this house is solid and elegant, but the reviews in the market are not good. The three homeowners in 7 years have either died of illness or an accident, especially It was a scholar who was found dead in the courtyard the year before last, and since then no one has cared about it in the An Xiao Pavilion!"

Having said that, the master book also turned the book in his hand, which is usually not for outsiders, to face Lu Chengfeng, so that he could see the official internal comment on it: It is rumored that this is a haunted house.
