Chapter 241: Could it be a haunted house
After entering the villa, Manager Zhao and Chang Fu took Master Chen Wan and servant to look around the villa.
The villa looks grand outside and is not bad inside, with pavilions, pavilions, corridors, curved bridges, pools and rockery. Although there are no people living there, they are cleaned and the trees, flowers and plants are well-decorated.
After looking around, the group entered the pavilion, Chang Fu's daughter-in-law served tea, and then Chang Fu and her daughter-in-law stepped down with the gesture of Manager Zhao's eyes.
Manager Zhao was drinking tea and wondering in his heart how to tell the lies he made up.
"Mrs. Chen is still satisfied with this Zhuangzi?" he asked.
Chen Wan sighed in her heart, looked at Zhangguan Zhao with a smile and said, "Satisfied is satisfaction, but Zhangguan Zhao, you are afraid that you have forgotten. My budget for buying a farm is only 5,000 taels."
So what if you are satisfied? She can’t afford it!
Manager Zhao said: "I naturally have never forgotten what my wife said."
Hey? Chen Wei was stunned for a moment. What he said was, can this farm be bought with 5,000 taels?
It's impossible. How could such a good farmer be bought for 5,000 taels of silver?
"Is this farm sold for 5,000 taels?" Chen Wan asked.
"That's right," said Manager Zhao nodded, "and add the fifty acres of land in front and the forty acres of mountainous land in the back mountain."
"Cough cough..." Chen Wan was choked by her saliva. Such a large farm, with fifty acres of land and forty acres of mountain land, only 5,000 taels were sold. If she hadn't heard it wrong, then this shopkeeper Zhao was wrong.
"Wait, do you say that this farm and the ninety acres of land are sold for 5,000 taels? Could I have heard it wrong?"
Manager Zhao smiled and said, "You heard it right, it's true that it's only sold for 5,000 taels."
Anyone, I heard that if you only buy this farm and ninety acres of land, you will be like Mrs. Chen.
Qiu Ju couldn't believe that such a good farm, plus ninety acres of land, was only sold for 5,000 taels. The price was too low!
Could it be that there is something wrong with this farm?
"Shopkeeper Zhao, can this be a haunted house?" Qiu Ju expressed her guess.
Some houses with dead people and unclean things, if the owner dares not live in, they will sell them at a low price.
However, if this villa is sold for such a low price because it is a haunted house, then this villa may still be a very haunted house!
Chen Wan looked at Manager Zhao and waited for his answer. Could it be that this is really a haunted house?
If it is a haunted house, even if it is a cheap price, she would not dare to buy it. After all, she believes in the sayings of ghosts and gods now, so she should be taboo.
"Of course not." Manager Zhao said: "How could I find you a haunted house!"
"Then why did this farm sell so cheaply?" Chen Wan asked.
It’s not a haunted house, but it’s sold so cheaply, it’s simply unscientific!
Manager Zhao organized a speech in his heart and said, "This house belongs to a friend I know. Which friend has moved to Yongzhou and will not go back to the imperial city. This farm is uninhabited and wants to sell it. A few days ago, I asked me to ask for help inquire about the buyer. I told him that you just want to buy a farm. My friend has heard of your deeds and admires your character very much, so he is willing to buy this farm for you at a price of 5,000 taels."
"Oh..." Chen Wan touched her chin, nodded and whispered: "So the owner of this villa is my fan!"
Her fans sold the banker for her idol, which was really touching.
Manager Zhao said, "Mrs. Chen, look, do you want this village? If you don't want it, there are still many people waiting in line!"
"Yes, of course." If not, how can you be worthy of her fans' wishes? Moreover, for such a good and cheap farm, only a fool would want it.
"Okay, then who is this farmer going to live in?" This farmer naturally needs to be transferred after being sold. Of course, he has to ask who is going to live in, because he has to do this transfer!
"If I go to my name, then will this village have anything to do with the Song family? Can they take it?" Chen Wan asked Manager Zhao for advice.
She, a time traveler, naturally did not understand the laws of Dongchen Kingdom, and the original owner's memory did not have any information about these laws, so she could only ask Manager Zhao.
Manager Zhao said: "Of course it has nothing to do with the Song family. This farm is a property under your name. Even if it is your husband's family, it cannot be occupied."
When Chen Wan heard what Manager Zhao said, she felt relieved. She smiled and said, "I will ask Qiuju to send the silver notes to Zhaixing Tower tomorrow morning. Do I need me to be present in person when transferring the property?"
"No, I will do it for you." Logically speaking, the owner and the buyer have to attend the event in person. But if Mrs. Chen arrives, she will know that the farm is his boss. Therefore, Mrs. Chen cannot attend. He goes through some informal procedures and transfers the account.
"Then I'll trouble the shopkeeper." Chen Wan picked up the teacup and toasted the shopkeeper Zhao with tea instead of wine.
It was noon, because it was too late to go back to the city to have lunch, and Chang Fu had already prepared lunch for his family, Chen Wan and others had a meal at the village.
After dinner, they took a rest for a while before setting off for the city.
