Recently, people holding bamboo signs in Xianyang City seem to have a goal. Most of them gathered near the post house. And not just holding a sign, but often shouting twice.
As time passed, Wei Zhang also started to think about it.
It's really not like living in a post house all the time. Now that I have moved to Xianyang, of course I have to buy a house.
So Wei Zhang casually stopped a man holding a bamboo sign and asked, "This house costs fifty yi of gold per acre. Isn't it a bit expensive?"
The person holding the sign was the yellow dog from Shangjun Courtyard. He said respectfully: "Is this expensive? There are things more expensive than this everywhere. What's more, the former owner of this house was an important minister in the court. There was nobility in it. After living there for a long time, it became tainted If you are noble, you will definitely succeed in the imperial examination."
When Wei Zhang heard this, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart. But considering the price, I still feel a little hesitant.
Huang Gou said enthusiastically: "If you are not worried, you can take a look at the house first. If it is suitable, then buy it. If it is not suitable, it doesn't matter."
Later, Huang Gou got a carriage and took Wei Zhang to see the house.
Others holding bamboo signs were envious. After all, the banished immortal said that if the house can be sold, they will be given a ten thousandth commission.
One ten thousandth, that’s a lot of money.
All morning long. Wei Zhang was led around by the yellow dog, sometimes looking at the house, sometimes drinking fairy wine. In the end, Wei Zhang felt a little embarrassed.
Although there are several other houses, they are more suitable than Huang Gou's. But the yellow dog thing is not too outrageous.
So Wei Zhang said: "That's all, I bought it from you."
Huang Gou's eyes lit up and he immediately signed a document with Wei Zhang.
That night, Wei Zhang took his family and moved into the new house.
Several fast horses ran out of Shangjun Courtyard, and on the horses sat several craftsmen with loud voices. While circling the city of Xianyang, they shouted loudly: "Congratulations to Mr. Wei Zhang, you are happy to buy a mansion. Congratulations to Takumi Huanggou for being the exclusive sales champion."
Wei Zhang was directing his servants to tidy up the house. After hearing the shouts on the street, he couldn't help but grin: "Are all Xianyang people... so high-profile?"
In one day, Wei Zhang became famous. Many courtiers are asking about Wei Zhang, wanting to know where this enemy is coming from.
When I heard that he bought a house for fifty gold per acre, I immediately despised him.
The courtiers suddenly realized that they were not stupid after all. At least compared to the powerful powers of the Six Nations, that was extremely smart.

In Shangjun's courtyard, Li Shui didn't care about the house in Xianyang City. He is taking care of family matters.
A woman came to Shangjun's courtyard, carrying dry food and water and kneeling at the door.
He eats solid food when he is hungry and drinks water when he is thirsty, which shows his perseverance.
The gatekeepers Niu Dao and Cang Fu went to buy a house. The new gatekeeper had never seen this situation, so he told Li Shui.
Li Shui walked to the door and asked in confusion: "Who are you? Why are you kneeling here?"
The woman said: "My name is Ma Hua, and I hope that the banished immortal will let my father go. I would rather come to Shangjun's villa to be a slave, a maid, and a cow and a horse."
Li Shui's face was full of doubts: "Ma Hua? I am familiar with this name. But I don't know you. Did I arrest your father? Who is your father?"
Mahua said: "My father is a hemp rope."
As soon as Li Shui heard the word Ma Sheng, his expression suddenly changed, and he sneered and said, "It turns out to be him. Ma Sheng falsely accused me, the craftsman of Shangjun Courtyard, and is being punished. I am an official of the imperial court, how can I bend the law for personal gain?" , plead for him?"
Ma Hua's face was full of tears and she said: "If banishing an immortal can save my father, I would rather become a slave in Shangjun's villa."
Li Shui rolled his eyes: "Forget it, how many people have broken their heads trying to enter my Shangjun Courtyard. You think so."
Then, Li Shui turned around and went in.
The gatekeeper asked: "Sir, what should I do with this woman?"
Li Shui said calmly: "Don't worry about her. She likes to kneel, so let her kneel. Want to threaten me by kneeling? Then she has found the wrong person."
The craftsman said: "I'm afraid it's a bit unsightly to have such a person kneeling at the door."
Li Shui chuckled: "It doesn't matter. I have a good reputation as an immortal. Who knows about me? Even if someone kneels at the door, it will not affect my reputation."
The craftsman laughed dryly and thought: "That's true. With the reputation of our family...what else is there to be afraid of?"
Li Shuidao walked around with his hands behind his back and walked to the backyard of Shangjun Villa. This place has been designated as the office location of Xianshi.
Xianglizhu is learning abacus from Ji Nu. Seeing Li Shui come in, Xiangli Zhu asked casually: "I heard that a woman was kneeling at the door? What did you do that was worse than a beast?"
Li Shui said: "Where does this word come from? This woman is called Mahua, and she is interceding for her old father."
Xianglizhu asked curiously: "What mistake did her father make?"
Li Shui pointed at Ji Nu: "He knows."
Ji Nu said cautiously: "Her father's name is Ma Sheng. It was Ma Sheng who falsely accused Tietou and me. We were both caught by Yan Le. We were beaten black and blue."
Xiangli Zhu made a sound and said casually: "Then he brought it upon himself, and he deserves to be punished. But, what are you going to do with this woman?"
Li Shui said: "Let her kneel down. When she can no longer kneel down, she will leave naturally."
Xianglizhu said in confusion: "Don't you comfort her?"
Li Shui sneered and said: "When Ma Sheng went to report to the official, why didn't she want to inform Tietou? She had done all the bad things, but I wanted to comfort her? It's good that I didn't punish her as an accomplice."
Xianglizhu said "Oh" and didn't ask any more questions. After all, in her opinion, studying abacus is much more interesting than studying human relations.
In another small courtyard, Tietou was cooking absentmindedly. He also heard the news that Ma Hua was outside.
He was very confused. Don't go out, after all, I have been secretly in love with her for a long time. Go out, I feel sorry for the banished immortal, sorry for Ji Nu, sorry for the calf...
After such random thoughts, the iron head finally burned my hand. So he threw the iron pot away and ran out.

In the palace, Wei Young called Fu Yao over: "I heard that your master was deceived?"
Fu Yao's eyes widened: "My master was deceived? How is it possible?"
Wei Yang bit her lips and said, "I heard that the courtiers were very cunning and sold some houses to him at prices several times higher."
Fu Yao said: "Oh, that's what happened. Now the master has sent many people to sell the house with signs in Xianyang City. They probably want to take action as soon as possible."
Weiyang asked: "How many were sold?"
Fu Yao said: "Only one place has been sold."
Weiyang sighed and said: "Sir is quite talented, but I didn't expect that he was tricked by a villain. His house cannot be sold, so he must be very depressed."
Fu Yao scratched his head and said, "Are you depressed? Why didn't I see it? Didn't he take some time out of his busy schedule today to talk about the Three Kingdoms?"
Weiyang said: "What do you know? This is called forcing a smile to prevent you and me from worrying. Alas, he has to bear such a heavy burden alone. He still refuses to let others share it for him."
Weiyang thought for a while, took out a lot of gold and silver jewelry, and said to Fu Yao: "Look at how many houses these jewelry can be exchanged for?"
Fu Yao asked in confusion: "What are you going to do?"
Weiyang said: "Go find a reliable person and buy your master's house secretly."
Fu Yao laughed dryly and said, "Is it necessary?"
Weiyang glared and said, "Go quickly."
Fu Yao had no choice but to say "oh" and left with gold, silver and jewelry.
He first found a merchant through a young eunuch. This merchant knew that he was doing business for the palace, so he naturally didn't dare to neglect it.
Following Fu Yao's instructions, he grabbed a random person holding a bamboo sign on the street. Three times five divided by two, I bought a house. Then the second set, the third set.
By the time she bought the tenth set, Weiyang had run out of jewelry.
The merchant handed the land deed to the young eunuch, gave the young eunuch a piece of gold, and then left with a smile.
He worked hard all day, but he didn't make a penny. Instead, he lost a piece of gold. But the merchant is very happy, because once he establishes a relationship with the palace, there will be a steady stream of wealth.
Fu Yao found Wei Yang with the land deed and said, "They are all here."
Wei Yang looked at it for a while and frowned: "Are houses in Xianyang City so expensive now?"
Fu Yao yawned and said, "That's right. You bought ten houses. I guess Master is very happy. You can rest assured."
…………
"What? Someone is secretly buying a house? Which bastard saw through my plan?" Li Shui took a few pictures.
He walked around the room with his hands behind his back and said to himself: "There are capable people in Da Qin. I'm afraid this person has already figured out that this house has the potential to appreciate. In this way, the current price is a bit low. Did you make this person feel profitable?"
After thinking for a while, Li Shui called Cang Fu over and said, "Immediately order someone to go to the city to inform the sign holder that the prices of all houses will be doubled."
Ao Fu said "oh" and went to find someone to deliver the letter.
A quarter of an hour later, the sign-holders in Xianyang City changed their prices to new ones.
The people in Xianyang pointed at it and thought it was very fresh. They were not in a hurry, after all, such a big house was too far away from them. It's like the poor people of later generations looking at sports cars. What's the difference between ten million and twenty million? I can't afford it anyway.
As for the dignitaries in Xianyang City, they all sneered. At this price, can the house be sold? Is this Huaiguzi crazy?
At the same time, the powerful powers from the six countries have arrived in Xianyang City one after another.
Not long after they came in, they were frightened by the high housing prices in Xianyang. Many powerful people said: "No wonder the powerful people in Guanzhong are a little poor. With this housing price, I'm afraid their wealth has been wiped out long ago? How can we talk about ostentation?"
