The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 497

[Chapter 497 Crossing the Threshold]

It is obviously my own land deed and house deed. What is it for? What do you care about it?

Zhao Yan wanted to say this, but when her words came to her lips, she turned into: “I just feel that the house deed and land deed will be more secure in my hands.” When

Fang Xiu heard this, he felt speechless and leaned forward. Looking into Zhao Yan’s eyes, she asked, “Do you think I’m a fool?”

When the hundreds of thousands of taels of real gold and silver were stored in Baolefang, they didn’t mention anything about being ‘reliable’. Using this reason now is No one would believe it.

Zhao Yan heard this question, but she didn’t answer immediately. Instead, she looked thoughtful. After a while, she nodded and said solemnly: “Like.”

Hu-

Fang Xio took a deep breath, resisted the urge to curse, and squeezed out three words from between his teeth: “Tell the truth!”

“Sell it!”

Zhao Yan’s answer was also very decisive.

“Sell it? Are you short of money?”

Fang Xiu looked at her doubtfully and asked.

Zhao Yan nodded and said: “It will be the Imperial Grandmother’s birthday in three months. All my money has been stored in Baolefang by you, and I can’t get it out at all.

I can only take advantage of the current price of the house to be good. Sell it while the situation is good, and then choose a suitable birthday gift.”

When Fang Xiu heard this, he felt inexplicably guilty.

After all, it was because of him that Zhao Yan had no money to use. But

selling the house at this time would be equivalent to the fourth anniversary. Five years as a puppet soldier?

He thought for a moment and said, “I can lend you some money.”

When Zhao Yan heard this, she curled her lips and said, “All your money was used to buy a house, how much is left?

” That’s true.

Fang Xiu thought for a moment, this little money was really nothing to Zhao Yan.

As long as after this period of time, he sells all the land deeds and house deeds in his hands and fills the vacancy in Baolefang, this little money is just a hair on the nine oxen.

“Okay, you go to Bai Xiaochun to get the land deeds and house deeds.” The house deed is only allowed to be sold by you.”

When Zhao Yan heard this, she curled her lips and muttered in a low voice: “I really don’t know what the use of keeping these land deeds and house deeds is. Is it possible that the price of this house can continue to rise? ? “

In the eyes of Zhao Yan and the managers of Fang Mansion, or most people, this is the price of this house no matter how much it goes up.

During the war, the things that the house didn’t have, might not be as good as antique calligraphy and paintings.

The antique calligraphy and paintings can be carried away, but the house remains in place and cannot be moved or moved. It will turn into ashes in a fire and nothing will be left when the wind blows.

The southwest side had a great victory.

There was no movement on the other side of the grassland.

There is no certainty whether Master Wang will win or lose.

Those merchants in the capital who hold real money and silver in their hands will not take action.

The price of this house is as high as the sky, which is the original price before the war started.

Even so, if all the house deeds and land deeds in Fang Xiu’s hands could be sold, he would have made twice as much profit.

The original three hundred thousand taels, just for one trip, turned into six hundred thousand taels in the blink of an eye.

Even the emperor would not dare to think of such a thing.

The young master of Fang Mansion is still unwilling to take action. I really don’t know what he is waiting for.

Fang Xiu didn’t have a positive answer to these questions.

Including what Zhao Yan said just now, Fang Xiu just pretended not to hear it and watched Zhao Yan open the door and leave the room.

Then, he continued to lie in his rocking chair, basking in the sun through the window and reading a book.

The heater next to him was on all the time, and the little maid behind him was gently rubbing his shoulders.

How could it be so ‘comfortable’?

Leisure time is always short-lived, and more than a month passed before I knew it.

The tail of autumn has completely disappeared in the long river of time, and the new one is winter.

Although the winter in the capital is not as bone-chilling as the four northern states, it is still a lot colder than the milder ones in the south of the Yangtze River.

Not to mention anything else, the cold wind was howling all the time, and every night there were countless homeless people and beggars hiding in ruined temples and streets who couldn’t survive.

However, in a certain house in the capital, it is even hotter than in summer.

The heat here is literally fire.

Hundreds of people gathered together, making noises and shouting. The hot breath they exhaled steamed upwards and could not be blown away even in the biting cold wind.

“Is there anyone who wants to sell their house? I have an extra five hundred taels of silver!”

“At this time yesterday, I saw there were dozens of signs hanging there, but how come there were only a few left in the blink of an eye.

How can this capital be so good? There are so many people who can afford that kind of house. Could it be that your dental shop has hidden the sign?”

“Hey, don’t crowd, don’t squeeze at all. It’s useless if you squeeze. The houses in front of you are all sold out. You can’t even see the sign !

Did you pick it off?”

The shopkeeper of Yahang looked at the crowded crowd and couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat on his forehead.

Just three days ago, news came from the southwest that the contemporary Duke of Guizhou, who should now be called the leader of thieves, Mu Ying, ordered the remaining 10,000 soldiers in the palace to disarm and return to their fields.

The five generals of the Shoujian Mansion and their three sons took their heads and thorn sticks on their backs and set out from Yunzhou, kneeling every five steps and bowing every ten steps, heading to the capital to plead guilty to the emperor.

The Qiyan tribe in the north heard the news of the Mu family’s defeat. Before the king’s division arrived, they abandoned the captured tribes, abandoned the plundered cattle, sheep and slaves, fled all the way, and returned to their base camp in despair.

The royal army of the imperial court had just prepared and won the battle before they even set foot on the vast grassland.

The victory came so suddenly that when the people in the capital heard the news, they couldn’t believe it.

It was not until two days later that merchants who came to the capital from Yunzhou and the four northern states said the same thing that the people of the capital dared to believe that all this was true.

The imperial court lost almost no troops, and in just two months, they won the war that they thought would most likely shake the country even if they won.

On this day, all the No. 7 kites placed in the sky by the kite shop had their original advertisements removed and replaced with words such as “God bless the great Chu”, “Your Majesty is mighty” and “Thousands of achievements”.

The Beijing Grand Theater is free for three days for a limited time. Anyone can enter and watch as long as they queue up to get a ticket.

During the offseason of the Jingshi Super League, each football team still held a cup match to celebrate their victory.

The entire capital, whether it was the homeless beggars on the roadside or the merchants and nobles, all seemed to be celebrating the New Year. Walking on the road, laughter and laughter could be seen everywhere.

On this day, Yang Zheng, the Minister of Rites, wrote to ask for illness and retire from office.

It was also on this day that the threshold for selling a house was breached by a flood of people in just an hour.
