When Xu He returned to Shisheng Street from Fenghuang Dun with mixed emotions.
At the door, I met Xu Peng and someone coming out.
"Brother Peng, this is..."
Before Xu He could ask, the man knelt down on the ground with a "gudong" sound and said, "Mr. Xu, I am Youshun from the Dental Clinic, and I kowtow to you!"
Xu He turned aside and looked at Xu Peng with a question mark on his face.
Xu He pulled Na Youshun up from the ground, and then said to Xu He: "This brother You is a well-known middleman in Hailing. He specializes in helping people look after their houses!"
Xu He suddenly realized, patted his head and said: "There have been so many things lately, I forgot about it. Are you taking Mr. Wu to see the house?"
You Shun is a smart man. Hearing this, he immediately said: "That's right. Since Mr. Xu came to our Shisheng Street, the literary fortune in this area has been rising rapidly. No, Mr. Wu will also settle down here. We are thinking that with the two masters, the housing prices in Tokachi Street will almost catch up with Fenghuang Dun!"
Xu He smiled and did not answer.
Xu Peng on the side said: "Brother You just came and didn't meet Mr. Wu. No, he is preparing to come back next time."
Xu He asked: "What house are you going to show me, Brother Wu?"
When it comes to professionalism, You Shun takes the initiative: "There are three places in total. One is an old family on the west side of Shisheng Street. They are from Rugao. They sold tea in Hailing in their early years and bought a house on Shisheng Street. The place is not big. There are only three big houses and two small ones. It’s refreshing and the price is right!”
"The other one is in the west of the city. The house is quite big and the price is cheap. But... the door faces the temple, which is not very auspicious!"
Xu He nodded and said, "Is there more?"
You Shun nodded: "There is also a garden with three entrances. It was originally the private residence of the former horse owner Bo. Now that he committed a crime, his family sold it at a low price because the price is still a bit high, so..."
Xu Peng said: "I often pass by that house. Although it's not too big inside, it has a small garden with a rockery, fish pond, bamboo, wood and grass shrubs. It's quite peaceful in the midst of the bustle!"
Xu He suddenly became interested when he heard this: "Is it far away?"
Na Youshun said with a smile: "Not far, not far, just next door on Zhuangyuan Street!"
Xu He happened to have nothing to do, so he said to Xu Peng: "Brother Peng, wait here for Brother Yaochen. When he comes back later, you take him to Zhuangyuan Street to have a look. I will follow this Yaman to visit first."
When we arrived at Zhuangyuan Street, it was quite close to Fenghuang Dun and the environment was much better than Tokachi Street.
In Hailing City, from north to south street, from east to west street, they are Zhuangyuan Street, Shisheng Street, Jindefang, Dingkuifang, Linhuaifang, Song and Dance Alley, Bell Tower Alley...
These streets and alleys start from Zhuangyuan Street, where the land price is the highest, and then go down in sequence.
Especially Zhuangyuan Street.
Because the name of this street has a good meaning, many scholars and scholars moved their families to Zhuangyuan Street.
When he arrived at the door, to be honest, Xu He felt that the door was very small.
Nothing can be seen from the outside.
But as soon as he opened the door, Xu He secretly sighed that the owner of the horse, Bo, knew how to live.
Although there are no carved beams and painted buildings here, the houses are small and exquisite.
The key is that there is a small garden in the backyard, hidden in the alley, low-key and interesting. You can tell at a glance that this garden has been specially designed by everyone.
Xu He asked: "How much does this yard cost?"
You Shun smiled and said: "The Ma family is eager to sell their yard and return to their hometown, so they only need one hundred and twenty taels!"
When Xu He heard this, he shook his head and said, "It's too expensive."
Are you kidding me? One hundred and twenty taels are not good for anything. The garden is easy to live in but difficult to take care of. As for Wu Decao and his wife, if they lived in this courtyard, they would definitely hire a few servants to maintain the yard, but Wu Decao and his wife income……
pASS.
At this moment, Xu Peng led the excited Wu Decao over.
As soon as he entered the house, Wu Decao exclaimed: "This house is good, this house is good."
Xu He was quite surprised when he heard this, so he smiled and said: "If Brother Yaochen likes it, then I will buy it and give it to you!"
Although more than one hundred taels is a huge sum of money, it is still affordable for Xu He now.
But Wu Decao waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Me? Forget it, I can't live in this yard!"
"However, I would suggest you buy it loudly!"
Xu He smiled and shook his head and said: "I have no interest in buying land and houses!"
When Wu Decao heard this, he pulled him aside and whispered: "Liangsheng, you don't understand this. It would be better for you to buy this yard."
This is new, Xu He is waiting for his words.
"Think about it, what kind of person is Gu, a talented woman! People like her are suitable to live in this kind of environment. She can write poems and paint every day. When you are in a good mood, you two can also go for a walk in the garden. , to relieve fatigue!”
When Xu He heard this, he was really moved.
Yes, although the house I live in in Tokachi Street now is nice, it is still a bit shabby. At that time, I only had so much money in my pocket, and having a yard to live in was already very good.
But who is Sister Gu?
A talented woman who is famous all over the south of the Yangtze River.
Let her live in Tokachi Street. Although she gets along harmoniously with her mother Xie, it is still inconvenient after all.
But this courtyard has three entrances, so it is much more spacious.
And just like Brother Yaochen said, it’s so pleasant to paint and write poems in the small garden.
If you like someone, you must create a warm harbor for them.
"Okay, I'll buy it!" Xu He made his decision without hesitation.
"Wait a minute!" Wu Decao stretched out his hand to stop him.
You Shun was pushed to a climax just now by Xu He's words, but the next second he was brought back to reality by Wu Decao.
"One hundred and twenty taels is too expensive, but eighty taels is more or less the same!"
Hearing this, You Shun was so angry that he almost started to smoke: "I say Mr. Wu, you can't cut him off in the middle of your counteroffer!"
Wu Decao had been walking in the market for a long time. When he heard this, he sneered and said, "Okay, I won't bargain anymore. You can price this house and the tea seller on Shisheng Street together for one hundred and twenty taels."
"This won't work..."
When Wu Decao heard this, he pulled the confused Xu brothers and turned around and left!
"Twenty taels more!"
A smile of success appeared on Wu Decao's lips, but his feet did not stop at all.
"Okay, I'll listen to you!" You Yaren whined!
Just as he was told, You Shun asked the local Baozheng to sign the paperwork, and then took everyone to the Yamen to file the record.
How could the county government accept Xu He's money? In the end, the two houses were completed, and it was really only one hundred and twenty taels, not a penny more, but a penny a lot.
Standing in the neat and refreshing courtyard and three large houses at the west end of Tokachi Street, Xu He sighed: "Brother Wu, you earned this all by yourself!"
Wu Decao said proudly: "Liangsheng, leave these matters to me in the future, and you will never be able to suffer a loss or be fooled!"
Xu He gave a thumbs up and turned around to prepare for the move.
But who would have thought that when they arrived at home, there were two people waiting there.
"Brother Zongqi!"
"Brother Liangsheng!"
"Shopkeeper Ji!"
"Prince of the case, you can make it easy for me to find him!"
