After Han Ningxiang watched the people wearing turbans and huge earrings go upstairs, she felt a little calmer. At the same time, she felt self-deprecating in her heart. She was just a businessman dressed as a Nanzhou tribe. She was so worried. After being bitten by a snake, I have been afraid of well ropes for ten years.
This Dongyue Inn is five stories high. Except for the lobby on the first floor, where people can eat, the upper floors are all guest rooms. Of course, the best rooms are on the top floor, but now there are only two standard rooms. The rest were taken away by the Nanzhou people in front, so we could only ask for a few more local-branded houses.
When arranging the rooms, Lin Haoming unceremoniously asked Shu Siyue and Qiniang to live with him, leaving one room for Yu'er, and the others lived in the fourth-floor ground-sized room.
The night was uneventful. Early the next morning, Lin Haoming took everyone to see the house, leaving only the injured Lan Qingyu, Yin Fengling and Li'er who took care of them. Han Ningxiang was brought out by Jia Qiniang. After all, you can't live without a maid by your side.
Although Lin Haoming has planned to live in an official residence after taking office, this is not Kun County after all. Having a few more residences is not a bad thing. Moreover, Lin Zhen also wants to open Lin's business here, so he naturally wants to Prepare a place for them to stay.
The boat owner surnamed Tian, as promised yesterday, was waiting at the dock early in the morning. After a group of people boarded the boat, he specially gave everyone new tea. Although the tea was not very expensive, this boat owner was quite impressive. Thoughts.
Kunjun County has a dense river network, and the rivers in Dithief City are also connected in all directions. The boats hired by Lin Haoming can go to most of the rivers. This is why Lin Haoming is willing to hire boats.
There is no river flowing through Dongshi, but the houses close to Dongshi are really close to the river, and because the inn is right next to the official residence, everyone only sat there for less than half an hour before landing again.
After landing, there was a long street along the river, and the house was on this long street. After landing, the boat owner named Tian had already introduced Lin Haoming to the general situation of the house.
Lin Haoming walked while listening. When he arrived at the door of the house, the captain had just finished speaking. He also ran to the closed door with a smile and knocked on the copper ring on the door.
Soon, an old man who looked to be in his late seventies opened the door. Although the old man looked quite young, he was also very energetic. After seeing the captain, he immediately invited everyone in. It was obvious that he had realized the purpose of knowing that the group was here.
This house is indeed not small. There is a front yard at the entrance, followed by the front hall. Two corridors lead to the atrium on the left and right sides. There are also several halls and houses on both sides of the atrium. After the atrium, there is the garden, and This garden is built with a pond in the middle, which looks quite elegant. On both sides of the garden are the east and west wing rooms, with a total of twelve rooms each. Behind the garden, there is a backyard and several rooms. In total, Although it is not very big, it does meet Lin Haoming's requirements.
The old man showed everyone around and introduced it in detail. Although the captain had said it before, the old man's introduction was obviously more detailed.
This house was originally owned by an official, but it was only because he was transferred to another county and unlikely to come back for a thousand years that he planned to sell it. In fact, most of the houses for sale nearby are for this reason, and The better the houses, the fewer they are and the more expensive they are.
After walking around, Lin Haoming felt that this place was good. Siyue and Qiniang were also quite satisfied with it, especially the pond. Although it was not big, it was well decorated. It had been a year since the owner left here. There are more, but there are still people taking care of it, and it doesn't feel messy at all. You only need to add some furniture and equipment and you can live in it directly. Since everyone is too lazy to run around, it is natural to settle down as soon as possible.
Everyone had this idea, so Lin Haoming directly asked the old man the price, and the old man directly quoted the price of six hundred and fifty Shijing.
This price is much higher than the five hundred Shijing mentioned by the previous ship owner named Tian. Lin Haoming did not inquire about the specific price of the house here, but he did not care about the price, so he asked Shu Siyue to negotiate with the other party, but this The old man is just the owner of this house. The old housekeeper he hired only stayed because he was too old and was willing to follow the owner away. The person who can really decide the price is the son of the owner of the house who stayed in the city, because he didn't expect that after the other party saw it, I just wanted to buy it, but no one was there, so it was hard to continue the conversation for a while.
Seeing this, Lin Haoming could only make an appointment with the other party to continue negotiating the price here two days later.
Because buying a house is much faster than previously imagined, since the house is only half an hour's walk from Dongshi, so after leaving the house, Lin Haoming planned to take everyone to Dongshi, especially to buy some appliances and furniture. , In addition, you have to spend money to buy some servants, maids and the like.
As soon as Lin Haoming said he wanted to go to Dongshi, the boat owner surnamed Tian once again took the initiative to act as a guide. Although Dongshi was far less familiar to him than West Market, after all, he had been here for many years and he would go to Dongshi several times a year.
After walking for a while, we entered the East City. The streets in the East City were not very wide. Although there were some pedestrians and cars, it was still far from the prosperity that Lin Haoming imagined. But one thing is for sure. Most of the people who hang out in Dongshi are decently dressed, and there are no beggars or destitute people. It is obvious that the control of this place is quite strict.
There are small buildings on both sides of the streets in Dongshi, most of which are three-storey, but there are also some four or five-storey high-rise buildings. Most of the facades are decorated with great style, which shows the class of this place.
When they got here, Lin Haoming said that he wanted to buy some furniture and equipment, so the ship owner personally took a few people to several shops specializing in sales.
Lin Haoming left the procurement matters directly to Shu Siyue, while he kept looking at the customs and customs here, and occasionally asked about the business situation.
In less than an hour, he had almost bought all the things he needed, and it was time for dinner. Lin Haoming went directly to a nearby restaurant to have dinner.
This restaurant in Kan County is located in a swamp and is rich in aquatic products. Some things that are rare in Kun County are very common here.
Lin Haoming ordered some dishes and asked everyone to sit down and eat together. The boat owner felt a little embarrassed when he saw this, because he saw that the food on the table alone was worth more than the price of renting his own boat for a month. He had never had such a good meal, and the more this happened, the more embarrassed he became. Finally, Lin Haoming reminded him kindly, and he nodded and took a few chopsticks.
Lin Haoming also smiled when he saw this, and then asked: "Captain Tian, do you know if there is a place to buy and sell maids and servants in Dongshi?"
