Chapter 11 Bad News(2/2)

This Wanhong is really a good deal.

But even so, it was still more than twice the amount of silver Ning Chen had on hand.

And this is Wanhong’s own bargaining price.

In fact, Wan Hong took care of this house very well.

Except for Ning Chen's own clothes, the rest were purchased by Wan Hong.

Sure enough, poverty has limited my imagination.

Ning Chen originally thought that three thousand taels was not too small in this era.

You know, during the Dawu Dynasty, one stone of rice was equivalent to half a tael of silver.

The annual income of a medium-sized farmer is about thirty taels.

The three thousand taels I have is almost equivalent to the income of an ordinary middle-class farmer for a hundred years.

Wan Hong looked at Ning Chen and frowned, thinking that Ning Chen didn't like his way of discounting the price, so he tentatively said: "Eight thousand taels is actually okay."

"How about nine thousand taels?"

Without letting Wan Hong continue, Ning Chen said directly: "Go back and calculate for me how much it will cost. Come to me after you figure it out. I will continue to borrow this house and carriage."

"Yes, I will check carefully after I return." Wan Hong responded with a smile on his face.

As long as Ning Chen is willing to continue borrowing, it means that Ning Chen is not angry with him.

As for the price, Wanhong decided to really make a careful calculation after going back.

Wan Hong felt that he had to give one, and Ning Chen felt that it was a reasonable price, and at the same time, it made him feel that he had expressed his feelings to Ning Chen.

In Wan Hong's view, Ning Chen is different from ordinary officials. If he is a corrupt official, the lower the price, the better. If he is a Qingliu official, he will basically not pay attention to him. Even if he does, he must pay the actual market price.

Ning Chen is different. In Wan Hong's heart, Ning Chen is the best official in the world, the one who can handle facts, so Wan Hong must verify it carefully.

But Wan Hong didn't know that Master Ning only had three thousand taels in his sleeves.

Ning Chen was also a little depressed after sending Wan Hong away.

"It seems that making money can no longer rely on the system. It is probably quite dangerous to rely on the system. You still have to earn the money yourself."

"Nie Chen thinks that I am the only one in the world."

After ordering people to pack everything away, Ning Chen slept peacefully under the care of spring flowers, summer bamboos, autumn fragrances and winter plums.

The next period of time was relatively boring for Ning Chen.

Go to court every day and fight against those censors who have jumped out to oppose the appointment of the eldest princess as the heir apparent, so as to gain a little more [sycophancy] points.

That's right, ever since Ning Chen destroyed the eldest princess's compromise with the Qingliu people.

Those censors started to jump out and talk about the same old things again.

In their opinion, Ning Chen's actions were under the instruction of the eldest princess.

When the eldest princess goes back on her word with them, they will naturally stop keeping their promise and start talking about the same thing.

The emperor didn't care at all, just let Ning Chen fight them alone, and when he was tired, he announced his resignation.

Ning Chen enjoys these things endlessly. Anyway, he is the one who increases the number of [Naughty] points.

Ning Chen was fighting above the court, and outside the court, Ning Chen was not idle either.

Ning Chen goes to Lanxiang Pavilion every two days.

Not for anything else, just to show those people that I am a card-carrying person.

Over at Hong Xiao, Ning Chen sent another song:

"Look at the charming city, then look at the charming country"

With this poem, Ning Chen successfully went to the card table and played poker happily.

Then Ning Chen discovered that practicing martial arts might not help his life expectancy, but playing poker was very boosting his energy.

At least Hong Xiao loses everything every time.

Fatty Wan often came to Ning Chen to sign autographs during these days.

Fatty Wan really paid attention this time, because every time Fatty Wan came, Ning Chen found that Fatty Wan was obviously thinner than before.

Ning Chen is still very satisfied with this. The eldest princess's errand must be done well. If she doesn't do it well, she will lose her head.

In addition, Ning Chen also discovered that he had a new source of [Yi] points.

I don’t know who spread the news to the people that the emperor wanted to create a princess, and even said that he supported it.

For the people who have deep-rooted ideas of male superiority and female inferiority, this is a reversal of the world and a great rebellion.

Folks don't dare to scold the eldest princess, but Ning Chen, they don't care.

But Ning Chen acted openly and openly. He not only didn't care how others scolded him, but also often sat on his own horse and walked around in a swagger, for fear that everyone wouldn't know what he had done.

Bai Renyuan was present during this process, which really helped Ning Chen a lot.

According to Bai Renyuan, Ning Chen is the biggest corrupt official in the world.

Wan Hong could defeat him only by flattering Ning Chen and giving Ning Chen gifts.

Regarding Bai Renyuan like this, Ning Chen finally felt that Bai Renyuan was a bit cute.

A boring month passed like this. Ning Chen, who was receiving a massage from four little maids at home, casually checked his dashboard.

Then Ning Chen jumped up and sat up.

Because Ning Chen discovered that his [loyalty] was growing rapidly.

At this moment, Zheng Da also came in and reported to Ning Chen that Wan Hong came and asked to see him.
