Li Yuan also didn't expect Xie Yanzhi to give so much.
Because she was the second married woman, she didn't have as many scruples as the first-married girl, and she would hide and so on.
When she saw so much money and everyone looked at her with envious eyes, she secretly scolded Xie Yanzhi in her heart.
This guy is so high-profile, doesn’t he even know how to keep his wealth secret?
With so much money, it wouldn't be good for her to borrow it if someone said her family was in need, whether she borrowed it or not.
Thinking about it, she said to Xie Yanzhi in public: "Brother Xie, you are going to take the provincial examination next year. I am thinking of going to Fucheng after the year. Use this money to buy a house. Then my name will be written on the house and it will be mine." Do you think it’s a dowry?”
She said without waiting for Xie Yanzhi's answer, and added: "With the house, you can go there in advance and have a place to stay. Although the inn is convenient, it is noisy, so I'm afraid you won't have a good rest. Besides, If Junzi, Zhengzi, or people from our clan will all be admitted as scholars in the future. If you want to take a step forward and take the provincial examination, you will have a place to stay, right?"
Xie Yanzhi was so smart. He knew what was going on when he turned his eyes slightly.
Originally, when he gave so much money in a high-profile manner, he had already thought of a countermeasure.
Let Li Yuan go to the capital at that time, add some money, and buy a small village.
You don’t need much land, just a hundred acres or so.
But since she said she wanted to buy a house, let’s buy it.
What she said was that when the time came, promising young people in the clan could take the exams and settle down. In fact, it was a big favor to the clan members.
In this way, even if some people are interested in these coins, who would dare to think about it?
Even if someone asks to borrow it, I am afraid that the old men in the clan will be the first to refuse.
Lin came here today as an ice man. Hearing Li Yuan's words and looking at the eyes of the people around him, how could he not know the purpose of Li Yuan's words.
She didn't wait for Xie Yanzhi's answer, but said with a smile in her eyes: "Sister Li's idea is good, but in my opinion, Fucheng can not buy it for the time being. My master said that Brother Shao'an is a man of great talent. If If you take part in the provincial examination, you will definitely win in one fell swoop. Instead of buying in Fucheng, it is better for my sister to go to the capital city. With the ability of Brother Shaoan, it is not a problem to get Jinshi. Even the top three, maybe they can give it a try. By then, in one fell swoop, high school will be I have to stay and serve in the Hanlin Academy in the capital."
Lin, as the wife of Mr. Chen, was also a daughter of officials in the capital.
Even though he is from a side branch, he is much better than the Lijia'ao people who were born and raised here and have little knowledge.
Coupled with her status as the county magistrate's daughter-in-law, her words are highly credible to everyone.
Everyone present at this time, whether it was Old Man Li, Li Qinghua, or a few older people in the clan, felt very excited after hearing this.
If Xie Yanzhi can be admitted into the top three, then as members of Li Yuan's clan, it will be doubly honorable for them to go out.
Xie Yanzhi has no father or mother, and no relatives. To put it bluntly, what is the difference between marrying a daughter of their Li family and marrying a son of their Li family?
Therefore, if you don’t want to buy a house in Fucheng, don’t buy it. Then go to the capital to buy it.
If they don't have enough money, their clan members can still pool their money together and buy a bigger one when the time comes.
If there is an official in the capital, their entire clan will benefit.
From the corner of her eyes, Lin could see everyone's expressions. She was very satisfied with their transformation, and continued: "Sister, the bride price seems to be a lot, but in the capital, I can only buy some from the outer city." It also depends on the location and whether the house is old or new. If you want to buy a house in the west of the city, my sister can only afford a small one."
What Lin didn't say was that most of the people in the inner city were high-ranking officials, either with titles in their families, or officials of the third or higher rank in the court, or some aristocratic families.
In the west of the outer city, there are more officials of the fourth and fifth grades, as well as the common sons of the inner city who were separated from their families.
That location is not easy to buy even if you have money.
Of course, Mrs. Lin would not say this to everyone, but after saying this, she changed the topic and said: "Sister, why don't you take advantage of the beginning of next spring to go to the capital and book a small house first? Otherwise, you will delay it even more. , in the second half of the year and in the spring of the next year, the price will only get more and more expensive. If my sister doesn’t have enough money, I still have some, so I can borrow it from my sister first."
The main reason why Lin was willing to help was because of Xie Yanzhi.
Her master was able to move up a level this time on the basis of his original plan, all because of him.
Moreover, her uncle's cousin was a classmate of Xie Yanzhi's. Now he is serving as a lecturer in the Hanlin Academy. It is said that after the New Year, he will have to be promoted.
Her master said that Xie Yanzhi was very talented. If he had the same luck as ordinary people, he would now be comparable to his direct cousin.
It can even go further.
Being friendly with him will only help them in the future.
Therefore, when she found out that Xie Yanzhi was looking for Ice Man, she recommended herself.
And after learning that the time was on the nineteenth day, she even dragged her husband along.
After all, the county magistrate and the county magistrate's wife come together to help with the recruitment, which is something that does not happen in the entire county.
It can be said that it gives Li Yuan and even the Li family a great deal of face!
Of course, this is actually a disguised form of selling Xie Yanzhi.
In this way, her master may be able to use it if he needs help from someone important in the future.
Li Yuan listened to Lin's words and actually agreed in her heart.
Xie Yanzhi already has a house in Fucheng, so there is no need for her to buy it. The reason why I said that just now was just an excuse.
If one day, Xie Yanzhi really becomes an official in the capital, then they will definitely have their own house.
Li Yuan thought so, but she still looked at Xie Yanzhi in public: "Brother Xie, what do you think?"
Xie Yanzhi's original intention was to go to the capital to buy property. When he heard this, he saw the approval in her eyes and said, "It can be done! It's just that this matter needs long-term consideration."
Li Qinghua saw that he meant to agree. After thinking about it, he looked at Li Yuan and said, "If Yuan Niang decides to go to the capital to buy a house at that time, Uncle Hua will make the decision and the family will chip in fifty taels for you."
Li Yuan knew that there would be a famine in the coming year and it would be difficult for every household, so she smiled and refused.
"Uncle Hua, there is no need for so much. Brother Xie and I have the skills. If we are short of money, we can make it ourselves. If the clan has this intention, we only need to know. In the past, we will do whatever we want to do when we marry our daughters. Don’t be special.”
She said, fearing that Li Qinghua would refute, and said hurriedly: "Moreover, if you give so much, if Brother Xie becomes an official one day, and there is someone who doesn't deal with him, the memorial will be written to the table saying that Brother If we want to get married, let me, the Li family, send money and things. Even if it is to add makeup, it will be unreasonable. After all, the Li family is not a famous family, nor is it a local gentry, it is just an ordinary person. Ordinary people can only save one or two taels of silver throughout the year."
