Chapter 283： A rare opportunity

Zhulan put down her rouge and looked back. The little boy who was driving the car was really familiar. Zhulan was speechless and looked up at the sky.

The curtain of the car was lifted, and Zhou Shuren said with a twitch at the corner of his mouth, "Young Master Yao."

Yao Zheyu leaned against the car window and was very amused, "Zhou Xiucai doesn't look like he just came to the capital. Since he came to the capital, why didn't he come to the Hou residence to find me?"

Zhou Shuren said in his heart that he didn't think he was too long-lived, "Young master is joking, how dare we go to Xicheng's dignitaries, and I don't have a deep friendship with my son, so Zhou still has self-knowledge."

Yao Zheyu stared at Zhou Shuren's eyes for a while, then suddenly smiled, "Zhou Xiucai is not only of noble character, but also very self-aware and well-known."

Zhou Shuren lowered his head, "This is also the way of survival for little people like me."

Yao Zheyu stopped the car just to confirm whether Zhou Xiucai came to the capital to look for him. If not, then there is no need to pay attention. He has no time to pay attention to a little Xiucai. There is one more step ahead."

Zhou Shuren, "Master, please."

Zhulan feels that the male protagonist is getting more and more fake, and she doesn't know what she has gone through when she returns to the capital. Not to mention, she has become more and more imposing, and even cares less and less about the life-saving grace of the Zhou family. Give a life-saving grace!

Zhulan waited for the carriage to leave, and bought the selected rouge. She and Zhou Shuren stopped shopping outside and went back to the inn directly.

After returning to the inn, Zhu Lan said, "Yao Zheyu has changed a lot, I feel a lot of stimulation, why does it feel like a blackening, and I don't trust anyone at all?"

Zhou Shuren also felt this way, "It can only be said that our wings are too hard, because we have changed too much indirectly."

Zhulan was happy, her and Zhou Shuren's wings were indeed hard, but the male protagonist should stay as far away as possible, otherwise they would be too easy to be cannon fodder.

The next day, Zhulan saw Deng Xiucai, who was in her thirties, and knew that she wanted to buy a house. Deng Xiucai said, "Brother Zhao introduced me, I will definitely understand the matter, but in terms of price, I will not buy a house because of brother Zhao. The introduction is cheap, I also have a family to support, Brother Zhou has been to my house, I hope to understand."

Zhou Shuren, "Understand, understand, I'll leave this to Brother Deng."

Deng Xiucai patted his chest and said, "With me here, Brother Zhou will never buy a house with problems. I will try to find a better place. Brother Zhou just needs to wait for good news."

"Thank you brother Deng for being here. The food and drinks are ready. Let's chat while eating."

"well."

Zhulan ate in the guest room by herself and waited for an hour before Zhou Shuren returned.

Zhulan was very curious, "Deng Xiucai is a scholar, can he trust his promise?"

Although she trusts Zhao Bo very much, she is only a scholar in the capital, how dare she make such a guarantee?

Zhou Shuren also just deliberately drank alcohol before he knew why he dared to protect himself, "I can believe it, Deng Xiucai just revealed that his sister is the concubine of the household servant, and has given birth to the only son, this cheap brother-in-law, naturally many Take care, Deng Xiucai can't study well, and he is a top scholar when he is admitted to the sky. He makes a living by selling news, and he does things safely.

Zhulan really didn't expect to have such a hard relationship, "Then why is Deng Xiucai's house still in such a mess?"

Zhou Shuren, "When you marry a wife, you should marry a virtuous person."

Four words sum it all up.

Deng Xiucai came with Yazi the next day. Yazi is the most deceiving. Yazi is the same everywhere. As long as it's not a local, it's you.

Deng Xiucai brought Yazi himself, and Yazi said that the house is safe and free of disputes, "It's a coincidence that Xiucai bought a house. Recently, more people have left Beijing and returned to their hometown, and there are many people who do not sell the house. Deng Xiucai introduced the people. , I don't want to cheat Zhou Xiucai, I have four good houses in my hands, two in the south city, and two at the junction of the west city and the east city."

Zhou Shuren asked, "How about the two households in Nancheng?"

Yazi explained, "There are many merchants in Nancheng, and the houses are naturally good and big. One of the two households has a yard with two entrances, and the other has a three-entry house. The second-entry house is one thousand eight hundred taels. Four thousand taels, this is still the price of a hurry, if it was last year, six thousand taels would not be able to get a house with three entrances."

Zhulan took a deep breath, it was too expensive to buy.

Zhou Shuren asked calmly, "Where are the two houses at the junction of Xicheng and Dongcheng?"

Yazi didn't need to look at the book in his hand, he opened his mouth and said, "Xicheng is also known by the powerful and talented masters, and there are many ordinary people in Dongcheng, but there are also many officials living in the two houses, the houses are all courtyards. , The courtyard is not very big, but because of the location, the price of the two houses is more than 1,200 yuan. By the way, the decoration in the house is not as good as that of the merchants."

Zhulan quickly reckoned in her heart. Now, some residents of the capital have experienced several battles in the capital, and they don't trust the imperial court's military use, so they left the capital.

This is a rare opportunity. When the war is over, the housing price will definitely rise back. Moreover, if the war is won, the people will have more confidence in the court, and the housing price in the capital will probably double.

Zhulan pulled Zhou Shuren and blinked three times at Zhou Shuren. Zhou Shuren was very happy. He thought about buying the two houses that were handed over to Xicheng. Zhulan wanted to buy three sets. Lan's, slightly invisibly nodded.

Zhou Shuren said to Yazi: "We want to go see the two-family house that entered the two-family house and the two-household house at the junction of Xicheng."

Yazi knew, Zhou Xiucai didn't have so much money to buy three-entry, "Okay, let's go and see now."

Yazi paused and continued: "Zhou Xiucai, this is what Deng Xiucai introduced, otherwise, I wouldn't have pressed it in my hands, and many people would have asked about it yesterday!"

Zhou Shuren took out a silver coin and handed it to Yazi, "Take this for tea."

Ya Zi cheered, "Zhou Xiucai is really polite, let's go!"

Zhulan pouted in her heart, she needed money everywhere in the capital, and it would be impossible to do without it!

Zhou Shuren asked the shop assistant to call two carriages, one or two of Deng Xiucai and Yazi, and one or two of Zhulan and Zhou Shuren.

When there were only Zhulan and Zhou Shuren, Zhulan whispered: "If it looks good, buy three sets, I will get 4,200 taels, and give Deng Xiucai 50 taels, and I will also give Yazi. Some, and the money to exchange for the deed, we still have 200 taels left in our hands, which is the 100 taels in the hands of the boss, and the 100 taels of the family that we did not bring, we can have 400 taels in our hands, plus We have enough money for the food we sold last autumn."

Zhu Lan paused for a while and continued: "If the war ends next year, the housing prices in the capital will definitely rise, and then selling one set will be enough for the family."

Zhou Shuren said: "Okay, listen to you."

Zhulan was happy, she was finally able to make money, this time is a rare opportunity, I'm sorry for not hurrying up.

Because the inn is located in Nancheng, the second-entry house is the first one to look at, and Zhulan looks carefully. The merchant's house is exquisite. If it weren't for the location in Nancheng, the second-entry house would be worth at least 3,000 taels.

Zhulan took a fancy to it, and then went to two houses. The yard was really bad, and the house was in disrepair.

Ya Zi asked Zhou Xiucai is optimistic? "

Zhou Shuren smiled, "Okay, all three sets are ready, you see it's not too late, how is the past now?"

Yazi was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect to buy all three sets. He was very happy and bought all of them. He can get a lot of commissions. The recent big sale has been done. Waiting and watching!

Ya Zi said: "Come with me with your money, I'll do everything for you today."

Zhulan was worried about Zhou Shuren, and said to Zhou Shuren, "Let's go together."

Zhou Shuren nodded, "Okay."

Yazi has its own way. Zhou Shuren and the seller paid the money and exchanged the deed for Yazi. As long as there is money, Zhulan will get the house deed in the afternoon, giving benefits to Yazi and Deng Gongzi. Zhulan carries it. The house deed went back to the inn, and with three properties still in the capital, Zhulan felt a little dizzy when she walked.

It's just that the good mood continued until I returned to the inn, and the shop assistant said, "I've been waiting for the two guests for a long time."
