C129

Qin Wuya's abnormality had only occurred for an instant, but Manager Wu didn't notice as he brought his people into the courtyard.

The yard in front of them was neatly cleaned.

It was not big. It was only three Zhang wide and two Zhang long.

There was a room on the left and right side of the house. It was made of fine green brick, but it didn't look like a proper room.

Qin Wuya looked at it in detail and felt that it was a little short, more like a kitchen or toilet.

As expected, the Manager Wu did not introduce them, and only brought Qin Wuya to the hall room in front of them.

After neatly opening the bronze lock on the door, the Manager Wu said:

"Girl, take a look at this room. My old brother just renovated it two years ago. It's very bright."

The chairs and furniture were also new, and my old brother said he'd take them with him.

"Don't be so small, they are all excellent wood, and the skills of a master are hard to come by."

"Indeed."

Qin Wuya looked around and was satisfied with the spacious room, but she was even more unsatisfied with the price.

"I'll show you inside."

Seeing that Qin Wuya liked it, the Manager Wu took Qin Wuya to the left side of the hall and led him to a small door.

Outside the small door was a ten meter wide corridor.

The corridor was not long, and in just a few steps, Qin Wuya knew that she had entered the inner courtyard. There were many flowers and plants growing there, and it was likely that many people who had no one to take care of them seemed to be sickly.

The house was a typical two-way courtyard.

The inner courtyard was much wider than the outer courtyard. It was still 30 feet wide, but it was 50 feet deep.

It's almost half the size of a basketball court.

The two sides of the courtyard each had a large set of rooms, and each of them had an inner chamber and an outer living room.

The main house in front of him had two more rooms with eardrums.

Qin Wuya looked around and realized that the three houses were completely furnished.

It wasn't as new as the ones in the living room, but it was still good stuff with excellent craftsmanship.

If he bought it, he would only need to add the blanket.

"How is it? But have you taken a fancy to them? "

Seeing Qin Wuya's satisfied expression, the Manager Wu asked.

"Shopkeeper, what's the price?"

Qin Wuya was naturally very satisfied with the house.

However, silver was a big problem.

Such a fine house, and it was also the western part of the city. It would likely be impossible to get it without spending over a thousand taels of silver.

"Little girl, don't worry. The price is still fine."

My old brother was in a hurry to get rid of it, so the price was naturally much lower than the market price.

"Another day I'll go and say that I don't think I have to exceed that number to get to the bottom of it." ""

With that, the Manager Wu smiled and extended two of his fingers.

Qin Wuya exclaimed when she saw this:

"Eight hundred silver?"

"How is it? How about this? Such a nice place and such a nice house.

"You even gave me a whole set of furniture items. This price is way too cheap."

"He really picked up a big bargain!"

Qin Wuya sighed and muttered.

However, the expression on his face was one of elation and sadness, and he was at a loss.

Qin Wuya had asked quite a few people over the past few days, so she naturally knew that such a good house would cost at least seven to eight hundred silver taels even in the north of the town, let alone in the Zhenxi.

Not to mention that the furniture in the courtyard couldn't be bought without hundreds of silver taels.

"What? Aren't you satisfied with the price?"

Manager Wu was different.

"Satisfied? How can I not be satisfied?"

Such a big bargain!

But the problem was that this advantage wasn't something that could be taken easily.

Qin Wuya was depressed, she did have some savings on hand now, but after adding them all up, she only had about seven hundred liang of it.

Eight hundred liang, eight hundred liang!

There was a difference of a hundred taels between the two. Although this number seemed quite close, it wasn't something that could be made up for at one point.

Besides, he wasn't alone.

Every day, there were many workers waiting to pay the bill. How could they possibly lose everything just to buy a house?

Helpless, although Qin Wuya really liked this house, she had no choice but to bear with it and give up. She told the truth to the Manager Wu:

"Shopkeeper, this mansion is really good, but I really can't afford it."

Why don't you take care of the other houses for me? The price is a bit cheaper, so the northern courtyard is the best. "

"What is it? Is there not enough silver? "

Manager Wu thought that this transaction was certain, he never expected that Qin Wuya would not agree to it in the end.

"Indeed, it's not enough."

Qin Wuya said somewhat helplessly: "My one … Only seven hundred liang of silver, do you see? "

"Seven hundred liang of silver?"

Hearing that, Manager Wu was startled, but then laughed loudly and said:

"Little girl, you have seven hundred silver taels, what are you worried about?" I think six hundred liang is enough!

"Then there's a hundred taels of silver for some bedding, the rest is enough for your wages."

"What?" Only six hundred silver? "

This time, it was Qin Wuya's turn to be confused:

"Didn't the shopkeeper say eight hundred liang of silver just now? Why did it only cost six hundred liang?"

Even if they were familiar with each other, they wouldn't be able to haggle over a quarter of the price. This was no small amount.

"Here, look. "Let's see if six hundred silver is enough."

Manager Wu smiled mysteriously as he took out two pieces of paper covered with the seal from his sleeve and slammed it on the table.

Qin Wuya looked up and her heart jumped.

They were actually banknotes from the Shangguan Family Bank, each with a value of one hundred silver taels.

"Shopkeeper, what is this silver coin?"

"Don't worry, I don't have the money to lend it to you."

This one hundred taels is the monthly share for the candy store. You can take forty percent of the rent, which is exactly one hundred and thirty-one taels.

Originally, I planned to settle the accounts with you a few years ago. However, I was afraid that since you wanted to set up a house, I would have to pay a hundred taels of silver in advance if you don't have enough money.

The other one hundred or so Nectar s would set a deposit, and after that, my place will not have two pots of spirit stones.

Girl, you have to hurry and bring it to me. "

"Why so much?"

Looking at the gigantic bill, Qin Wuya could not help but be shocked.

Four taels of silver a pot of Nectar, a hundred taels of silver was enough to buy twenty-five jars.

Furthermore, according to the rules that was set down in the past, half of them had to be paid and the other half had to wait until the goods were delivered before they were settled.

This meant that he had reserved another fifty pots for the one hundred time limit.

"Shopkeeper, do you remember that the day before yesterday, Zhong Yang asked his assistant to send fifty pots to him? How come they ran out of stock in less than two days?"

"Hehe, let alone two days, just half a day is already decided.

I originally wanted to send the shop assistant to come back to pick up the goods, but you instead hid away in the countryside.

"It's so hard on an old man like me. He ran around the town so busy that he didn't even have time to drink some water."

Hearing Manager Wu's words, Qin Wuya was a little shocked.

"This is too much."

Even if she knew that the Double Sun Festival in Grand Dynasty was comparable to the Mid-Autumn Festival, she didn't think that the people of the Great Li Dynasty would have such crazy desire to shop.

"This is not considered a lot. It is also the first year.

"Just watch and see. Once your reputation has been established in the future, there will definitely be more than just this."

Manager Wu was in a good mood as he laughed:

"I thought that I wouldn't have to be busy after Duo Yang, but I didn't expect that there would be two big families in the county that would set up a three day chrysanthemum feast.

That was great. Even the last idea of surviving was almost gone.

I still owe a lot of pastries, so I'm waiting for you to come back. "

Qin Wuya was a little dazed, the words of the Manager Wu beside his ear suddenly appearing and disappearing.

TDM! So much silver!

He must have stepped on dog shit when he went out, why did it feel so unreal?

With a proper price, the original owner was easy to negotiate with.

The Manager Wu accompanied Qin Wuya for less than half a day before the land deed was transferred to Qin Wuya's name.

Qin Wuya was happy in her heart, so she asked for some silver for her daughter-in-law to help him clean the house.

He, along with Madam Li, went to prepare some rice and fruits, planning to have a lively feast at two tables.

The first was to celebrate Joe's move, and the second was to reward the workers in the courtyard.

There weren't many people, only three tables. But on the second day, Qin Wuya still borrowed two chefs from the Manager Wu.

Chefs were used to making banquets, and knew all about food and wine.

After only half a day, four big dishes and eight supplementary dishes were cleared out from each table. As for the other small dishes and fruits, Qin Wuya and Madam Li helped out.

Of course, there was no lack of the Madam Li's signature fish soup.

Qin Wuya did not know many people in the town, only the Madam Li's family, the Nanny Cui's family, and the Manager Wu's family.

The adults and children were no more than 13 people, and it was a perfect table for them.

The other servants and wives crowded around the two tables. Seeing that there were still plenty of free time, Qin Wuya directly called for those who had children to bring their children over for a meal as well.

He had also bought a few new pastries that children liked, so naturally, he couldn't help but charge towards the three pots with Nectar s.

This hot meal lasted for more than two hours.

After the meal, the wife quickly cleaned up the dishes and returned to her rented yard to work. She didn't feel lazy at all.

This was also the reason why the resources in this era were so scarce.

Although the Grand Dynasty was powerful, their productivity was not even slightly higher.

As a result, ordinary people rarely saw meat on a daily basis. If the conditions were a little worse, even if there were ten days to half a month, they still wouldn't be able to see the oil foam.

The lunchtime diet that Qin Wuya prepared for the servants usually had meat and vegetables too.

However, it was not comparable to the feast that the proper chef of the Guest Home Resturant had personally cleaned.

Furthermore, Qin Wuya and Manager Wu were both good-natured people.

On the table, there wasn't any display of dignity. After drinking three cups of wine, he had become one with the waiter.

When the servants and wives saw that the main house had set its sights on them in such a way, they too were happy in their hearts.

Qin Wuya didn't even need to watch as she worked, and her effect increased by two levels.

After working for the entire day, when night fell, Qin Wuya lay on her comfortable, carved bed in exhaustion.

The quilt beneath her was soft and warm, but she could not fall asleep no matter what.

Separated by the tent curtains, Qin Wuya absentmindedly sized up the large bouquets of dark pink Begonia flowers sent from a few Madam Li s on the side of the bed.

The fragrance of the Begonia flower was extremely faint, and if one didn't smell it closely, it was practically undetectable.

But Qin Wuya liked it even so.

Begonia flowers, so beautiful, easy to take care of, and a long time, it is suitable for the room to dress up.

It was already autumn by the time the Double Sun was over, and Qin Wuya had habitually left a window that was not completely closed.

The shade of the trees outside the window was mottled, and from time to time, a cool breeze would blow into the room and stir the curtains.

From the time he had reincarnated to now, more than half a year had passed. From the initial fear and despair to the moment he had drifted away with the flow, Qin Wuya felt that he had never been as calm and satisfied as he was now.

She was a common person and didn't have much of an ideal revenge.

There was also no desire for the romance of love.

She just wanted to live, to have her own land, ordinary and peaceful.

Qin Wuya didn't know when she fell asleep last night, and felt that her occasional outbursts of anger was somewhat laughable.

Fortunately, he got up early the next morning as per usual.

He made a half-cooked set of Wuya Taiji, stretched his shins, cleaned the house, and washed off all the dirt he had accumulated a few days ago.

The sun at dawn was not hot, but it was warm, causing Qin Wuya to squint her eyes.

After dealing with the breakfast in a simple manner, Qin Wuya started to count the money she had spent in the past two days, as well as the money she had left in the account.

With this count, Qin Wuya's originally somewhat proud little face couldn't help but collapse.

Sigh! Buying a house was indeed a scam. After suffering for half a year, all of the money had returned back to before liberation.

The hundred taels of silver that he had left behind a few days ago had cost him twenty taels of silver.

The feast ended with another seven to eight taels of silver. The daily payment for the workers was one or two taels of silver. In addition to the materials, the real savings were not even enough to spare.
