And when the owner wants to sell the house, it still depends on who buys it.
The reason why the round-faced housekeeper was able to pick out three places is that the owner of the house sold it for the sake of the Ji family.
The distance of the three houses to the Ji Mansion varies, and the closer it is to the Ji Mansion, the higher the price is.
The first house is just one kilometer away from the Ji Mansion and the owner is asking for six thousand taels of gold. The house is quite large, and there are also two courtyards in it, but one occupies most of the area, and the other seems a little small.
Wu Weian wanted the two yards to be about the same size, or to have room for renovation. So he didn’t like this one.
Ji Yunxi naturally did not like it either.
The second house, between five hundred meter to one kilometer away from Ji Mansion, costs seven thousand taels of gold. The house is about the same size as the first one, with three courtyards, each of which looks a bit smaller after being divided out, the lighting is also not very good, and the layout makes people feel uncomfortable.
Wu Wei’an is still not satisfied. This one is not even as good as the first one.
Ji Yunxi naturally did not like it either.
The third house is very close to the Ji Mansion, one is in the front street and the other is in the back street. After coming out of the backyard of Ji Mansion and walking a dozen steps to the left, there is the main gate of the house.
Ji Yunxi’s group followed the housekeeper sent by the owner of the house and walked into the house.
As soon as he entered, Wu Wei’an was somewhat satisfied.
Because this house is really good. The layout makes people feel comfortable once they enter inside.
And it just meets Wu Wei’an’s needs too. There are two courtyards, each of which is about the same size. The two courtyards are also separated by a small man-made pond. In the middle of the lake is a pavilion for enjoying lotus in the pond.
Although the house is now empty, it even seems a bit desolate and overgrown with weeds.
But if it is well taken care of, with the pavilion and terraces, rockeries, waterside pavilions and the beautiful flowers, it will definitely look very good in the future.
Wu Wei’an was very fond of it. He asked the other party: “How much does the owner want to sell this house for?”

The old man said: “Replying to Young Master, twelve thousand taels of gold.”
Wu Wei’an frowned: “It’s a bit expensive.”
The old man said: “Young Master, the layout and the location of this house is very good. This price is already cheap.”
Ji Yunxi listened to Wu Wei’an bargaining with the other party, but said nothing.
She walked around casually like a visitor.
This house is really good. At the beginning, the owner was short of money and sold it in a hurry. She bought it with the price of six thousand taels of gold.
Because Ji Yunxi has too many houses in her hand, there was nothing special too after she bought it. The brothers in the family didn’t even know about it.
And the original owner just took the money and left the capital, so no one knew about this matter.
Wu Wei’an walked towards her: “Yun Niang.”
Ji Yunxi turned her head: “Why? You two have not come to an agreement with the price?”
Wu Wei’an nodded: “The owner of this house is really stingy. No matter what I say, the other party refused to lower the price.”
The more Wu Wei’an said, the more heartache he felt. The most expensive of the two houses he saw before was only seven thousand taels of gold. After buying it, he could still have three thousand taels of gold left. But this place is actually priced at twelve thousand taels of gold, which is exactly five thousand taels of gold higher than the most expensive one before! Even if he wants to buy it, he has no money to buy it either.
As for asking Ji Yunxi’s help to buy it, Wu Wei’an really has no such face to do it.
After all, as a man, he doesn’t need to prepare for anything else. He just needs to prepare the house. If even the house still needs his fiancee’s money to pay for it, where would he put his face?
And in this house, his father and his second younger brother them will also move in and live in it, which is all the more reason that Wu Wei’an can’t let Ji Yunxi pay for it.
Of course, the most important thing is that Wu Wei’an doesn’t think Ji Yunxi will pay for it.
Ji Yunxi does have a lot of money, but her money is not easy to get. She is so shrewd.
