The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 495
[Chapter 495 That’s right, I’m here!]
The door of the room was pushed open, and a steward of the Fang Mansion trotted up to Fang Xiu. His face showed excitement and he said excitedly: “Young Master, the news came out last night that our master led the army to defeat the Mu rebels.”
Not only did they stop them in Yunzhou, but they heard that of the more than 100,000 Mu rebels, only less than 20,000 were left and ran away with their tails between their legs.
Moreover, some people said, “My dear.
“
With the help of the gods, the lightning and thunder directly split the Mu family’s army formation!
The most important thing is that the price of our capital’s residence has risen again! “
After talking for a long time, I was preparing for the last sentence. The price of the capital’s residence has increased again!
This is the most important thing in the eyes of these stewards.
The house that could originally be sold for 5,000 taels of silver has returned to 5,000 taels of silver after these two price increases!
what does that mean?
This means that all the money that the young master owed before can be repaid.
It’s really God’s blessing that the young master was able to get through the difficult time safely after all this nonsense.
I thought that after this incident, the entire Fang Mansion would be in a situation where it was impossible to pay off the debt even after selling the house, but I didn’t expect that there is no perfect way out!
When the steward thought of this, his eyes almost shed tears.
He looked at his young master and said excitedly: “Master, as long as you give me an order, I will go to Yahang to find someone. All the land deeds and house deeds in our house have been sold while the prices are high.
Maybe
.
I can still make a small fortune!”
He became more and more excited as he talked, with a smile on his face like a flower.
However, after talking for a while, I realized that my young master didn’t seem to respond at all.
Subconsciously, he raised his eyes and glanced at his young master, only to realize that the young master had acted as if nothing had happened, with an indifferent expression on his face.
It seems that whether the price of the house goes up or down has nothing to do with him.
When the steward saw this scene, he was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth, and wanted to say something, but heard the young master speak at this time: “This young master still said the same thing, until then, not a single house deed or a land deed can be sold. !
If I find out that one of you secretly sold the house deed or the land deed, I will break his legs!”
When he said the last sentence, Fang Xiu gritted his teeth.
When the steward saw this scene, his heart skipped a beat.
He didn’t know how long he hadn’t seen the young master show such an expression.
You know, the last time the young master bared his teeth was a few months ago.
At that time, the young master had not yet suffered from “brain disease”. If he wanted to break whose legs he wanted to break, he would break his legs without waiting until the next day.
You are so cruel even if you don’t suffer from ‘brain disease’, let alone if you suffer from ‘brain disease’?
The steward stood there. Although there was a heater in the room, it was as warm as spring.
But he felt a chill all over his body, and he couldn’t help but tremble.
“Did you hear that!?”
At this moment, the young master suddenly heard a sharp scolding in his ears.
He suddenly woke up and hurriedly bowed: “I understand, I understand. Without the instructions of the young master, neither a land deed nor a house deed can be sold!”
“Just understand, get out!”
Fang Xiu now understood that being nice and cheerful was of no use in dealing with these old stewards of Fang Mansion.
The more nice and angry you are to them, the easier they think you are to talk to them.
Only by severely threatening them and reprimanding them will they have better memories.
Whether it was the good news ahead or the increase in the price of residences in the capital, it was all within his expectations and there was nothing noteworthy about it.
There is only one thing he needs to do now, and that is to wait quietly at home.
After a while, the cashier will be ready!
“What did you say to scare the steward of your house like that?”
When Fang Xiu was thinking about how to spend so much money, another familiar figure appeared in front of him.
As expected, it was Zhao Yan.
“It’s nothing, I just gave you a few instructions. But you came to me so early in the morning. If your father finds out, don’t throw me into the East China Sea to feed the fish.”
“Even if your father knows, he won’t be able to part with me. “
Let you feed the fish.”
Zhao Yan walked up to Fang Xiu, picked up the teacup on his table, took a sip, and said, “You didn’t go back home all night, what were you doing?”
Fang Xiu looked at her hand. There was a cup in it, and I wanted to tell her that I had just used it.
After thinking about it, he still didn’t mention it. He just answered her question: “Case solved.”
“Case solved?”
These two short words made Zhao Yan’s eyes widen.
She looked at Fang Xiu in disbelief and asked, “Did you really go investigate that case?”
Fang Xiu was a little unhappy when he heard this, looked at her, and said angrily: “Didn’t you say that? “
Seeing him like this, Zhao Yan subconsciously shrank her neck and said in a low voice: “I just said it casually, who would have thought that you would actually do it.
However, I heard about this case, and the Yamen and the Criminal Department jointly failed to find many clues. , Even if you go, what can you do?”
Fang Xiu’s expression became a little strange when he heard this.
It has only been a few hours since this case was solved, and Zhao Yan has not heard that it is normal.
But
what should she say to make her believe that she had solved this case in just two or three days?
After struggling for a moment, he decided to tell the truth.
“Actually, with the help of my young master’s intelligence, this case has been solved.”
“Ahem, cough, cough -“
Zhao Yan was drinking water. When she heard this, she couldn’t hold it back and almost choked.
“Are you the one who solves the case?”
It’s not that she doesn’t believe in Fang Xiu, it’s just
that, in terms of solving the case, she really doesn’t believe in Fang Xiu.
Over the years, the cases jointly carried out by the Kyoto Prefectural Government and the Ministry of Justice were all important cases above the court level.
Cases like Mrs. Chen’s can usually be solved by just a few policemen sent by the Kyoto Prefecture’s Yamen.
This time, however, it was necessary to use the power of the Ministry of Justice. From a certain aspect, we can see how difficult this case is.
Apart from anything else, people like Xia Yixue have been investigating for so long, but they haven’t found a single reason.
In just two or three days, what could Fang Xiu, a layman who knew nothing about it, find out?
I’m afraid I can’t even remember the existing clues, let alone solve the case.
When Fang Xiu saw this scene, his face turned a little dark.
He looked at Zhao Yan and said calmly: “Yes, that’s right!”
Zhao Yan coughed for a long time and finally recovered.
She looked at Fang Xiu with a sympathetic expression on her face and said, “Fang Xiu, it’s my fault this time. I shouldn’t have asked you to investigate the case.
You already have a brain disease, and you do something like this that requires your brain to be used again.” Things will definitely get worse. I didn’t think carefully. I apologize.”
