Liu Ruolan was dumbfounded. Three people entering the house in the inner city?
The inner city is a place where every inch of land is precious. The most important thing is that if you don’t have status, you are not qualified to live there. So which noble person is going to take action?
Yaren invited people into the house and explained in a low voice: "The wife of Liu Shilang's family in the inner city has to deal with these properties. Not only these, but also several shops."
Xie Rongzhao was also confused when he heard this. He had never heard of any adult committing crimes. How could he dispose of these properties in such a smooth manner?
"Shilang Liu has a large family, with several people living in the same house. Added up, there are dozens of masters alone. The properties that Mrs. Liu wants to dispose of are all earned by Miss Liu herself."
Xie Rongzhao became interested: "I wonder how old Miss Liu is, how can she earn so much money?"
The tooth man smiled and said: "Miss Liu is not very old, she is only sixteen this year. It is not entirely correct to say that she bought all these properties. Some of them were made by Miss Liu's fiancé to please her. And it was purchased for her."
After Yaren explained, Liu Ruolan and Xie Rongzhao finally understood.
There was a family division in the house of Minister Liu, because there were several people living in the house. Naturally, the family had to take out all the public property and divide it among them.
Somehow, news came out that the third lady had many real estate shops under her name. How could such a lot of property come from a little girl's family? Naturally, it must be classified as public.
As a result, the third lady was naturally anxious.
Mrs. Liu felt that this was her daughter's ability. Whether she earned it or received it as a gift from her in-laws, it all belonged to her daughter. Is it someone else's turn to mess with it?
But the problem is that Miss Liu San is a commoner woman, and the things in her name are not really in her name.
For example, if this farm is really in her name, it will need to pay taxes, so it will naturally be in her father's name. In this case, if you really check carefully, then this is the property of the public.
Another example is the Sanjin courtyard. In order to pay less tax at the Yamen, the third lady also fell into the name of her father.
When it comes to dividing the family now, Mrs. Liu is just thinking of ways to convert these things into cash. Even if it is a small loss, it is better than dividing it equally with the other houses.
"Madam, this house with three entrances is really not small. It also has an east-span courtyard. It is equivalent to a smaller house with five entrances. And the price is very cheap now. The only requirement is to pay as soon as possible. .”
Liu Ruolan inquired about the location of this house in detail, and felt that it was not too far from the Hanlin Academy. It could at least allow her husband to sleep for an extra quarter of an hour.
"I wonder how much the price is?"
Yaren's face smiled like a flower. If the deal was successful, they would benefit from it. Butler Liu had promised them many benefits just now.
"The price is absolutely cheap. Madam, for a three-entry house in the inner city, the cheapest one costs 1,500 taels. And this house is not only big, but also in a good location. The price is only 800 taels." Two, do you think it’s a great deal?”
Liu Ruolan was slightly surprised, it was really too cheap.
It's so cheap that people think it's a scam, right?
Yazi whispered again: "If you sell it now, the eight hundred taels of silver will go to Mrs. Liu. But if you sell it for two thousand taels, in addition to the old lady's share, the Liu family will also have five brothers." Come and divide it, if you get five hundred taels in Mrs. Liu's hands, it will be considered a lot."
Liu Ruolan thought about it, or the Yaren just said that they were lucky.
"Then why don't you go take a look first?"
"Okay! You two please, the younger one will lead the way."
Butler Liu wanted to finish the things ordered by his mistress as soon as possible, so he naturally returned to the house to wait, waiting for the buyer to come.
Housekeeper Liu was a little disappointed when he saw that a lady was bringing her daughter to visit the house. He was afraid that they would no longer be able to make the decision and their efforts would be wasted.
This house is still new, and it seems that no one has ever lived there. There is not much in the main house, but there are a lot of things in the front yard, and there is no shortage of tables, chairs, and tables in the hall.
"What do you think, ma'am?"
Liu Ruolan was really satisfied. The house was in a good location, it was new, and it had never been lived in before. It was very satisfactory.
However, this was not Liu Ruolan's first time shopping. No matter how satisfied she was in her heart, she had to keep it in mind.
"It's okay, even if I look at it, the east courtyard doesn't seem too big. Where is the guest room?"
Seeing her interest, Butler Liu immediately introduced her warmly.
"Madam, there are quite a few guest rooms here. They are all here."
As Butler Liu spoke, he raised his hand to point, "The servants' rooms are also divided into front and rear areas. There is absolutely no problem in accommodating forty or fifty servants."
Liu Ruolan's heart skipped a beat, this house was big enough.
Their family doesn't have that many servants to accommodate.
"Maybe you're in charge?"
Butler Liu immediately saluted and said: "Madam, don't worry, I have brought all the deeds of the house and land today. As long as you are satisfied, we will pay the money with one hand and transfer the ownership with the other."
Liu Ruolan glanced at him, and Fang Hu came over to look at the document in his hand.
After confirming that it was correct, Liu Ruolan asked Butler Liu to go back with him to get the banknote, and then Fang Hu followed him to run errands and complete the procedures.
Butler Liu and Yaren followed him all the way to Sanxing Lane, and then they realized that she was still an official's wife.
Butler Liu's heart moved. Ordinary people would naturally not be able to afford the more than 500 acres of land. Now that Madam was disposing of these properties in private, and she couldn't make it known to outsiders in a big way, it would be better to ask the Madam if she was interested in buying it. .
After hearing this, Liu Ruolan was really hesitant.
"How many people are there in the village? What are they growing on the more than 500 acres of land?"
"Madam, don't worry, those are all top-grade fields. And it's close to the capital, only more than ten miles out of the city. According to our land prices in the capital, an acre of land can be sold for fifteen taels of silver, which is quite reasonable! But! Our wife is in a hurry for money, so we can easily negotiate the price."
Butler Liu also noticed that the lady had money, but not too much.
He has thought about it. If he really sells takeout at the price of fifteen taels of silver, he is afraid that he will not be able to exchange it for cash within three to five days. Moreover, the most fearful thing about this kind of thing is the long nights and dreams. What if the other landlords let him down? Now that the kids know it, it’s going to be quite a scene.
Liu Ruolan actually wanted to buy it. No matter how good the business of the shop was, it would not be as reassuring as having a field.
"I'm not afraid of your laughter. If it's really at this price, I really can't afford it. You'd better find another buyer."
Butler Liu is so worried!
He still has several shops to deal with, but his wife has given an order to exchange them for cash within two days at most.
"Don't worry, madam, we are in a hurry to take action. Seeing that you are kind, I will give you three thousand five hundred taels. This Zhuangzi belongs to you. How about it?" (End of Chapter)
