Chapter 849 Feng Shui Treasure Land (1)
After the wedding date was set, Fu Jingen devoted himself to preparing for the palace examination.
Although Zhang Fu and the other three moved here, Fu Jingen did not live in the same yard with them.
Just as I finished practicing this morning, Lao Ding came over to report something to him: "Young master, a Yali named Lu handed over a post and said he wanted to see you."
"Pushed."
Old Ding said, "Young Master, he is already outside the door. Young Master, he said someone is willing to buy this house at a high price."
Then Lu Yayi was also a smart person who knew that Fu Jingen would not sell houses easily, so he threw out the bait first.
“Not selling.”
Old Ding glanced at him and said, "Young Master, I told him that even if the other party is willing to pay a double price, you will not sell the house. Unexpectedly, he actually said that as long as you are willing to sell the price, it is easy to negotiate."
He felt that if the other party was willing to pay three or four times the price, it would be fine if the house was sold. With this high price, he could buy a bigger and better house.
Fu Jingen shook his head and said, "Not to mention double, you won't sell even if you pay ten times the price."
It was a pity that Lu Yayi found out.
However, the buyer was unsuccessful and said that as long as he accomplished the matter, he was willing to give an additional bounty of 200 taels.
Such a high commission made Lu Yayi excited. As Yayi, he was very informed and soon found out that the house was under the name of Mrs. Gu.
The wealth was touching, and in order to get a generous commission and additional reward, Lu Yayi went to find Mrs. Gu.
When Mrs. Gu heard that he wanted to buy the house in Jinyu Hutong, she was a little surprised: "You made a mistake? That house is not mine, it was rented by my grandson-in-law."
Lu Yayi was also a little suspicious, but he did not show his face: "The old lady is joking. How could I make such a big mistake? This house is recorded in your name in your old lady."
After hearing this, Mrs. Gu immediately understood that the house should have been bought by Qingshu: "We will not sell this house."
Seeing that her attitude changed immediately, Lu Yayi said pleasedly: "Old lady, as long as you are willing to sell the house, Boss Hu said the price is easy to negotiate."
Mrs. Gu shook her head and said, "This house is where my granddaughter and my grandson-in-law live after getting married, so how can I sell it?"
"Old lady, the other party is willing to buy this house three times the market price. Old lady, Boss Hu is really sincere."
Mrs. Gu was a little puzzled why the other party was so eager to buy this house, but she still did not agree: "If you don't sell it, we have to live in this house by ourselves."
Lu Yayi left disappointed.
Qingshu knew about this when he came back from the yamen in the afternoon: "Buy this house three times the market price?"
Mrs. Gu nodded and said, "You are really surprised that Boss Hu. With so much money, he can buy a better house. Why are you obsessed with it?"
Qingshu frowned and said, "No matter what his idea is, we will not sell this house."
Mrs. Gu never thought about selling the house. Their family is not short of money and selling the industry. What's more, Fu Jingen still lives now: "When did you buy that house? Why didn't you tell me?"
Qingshu smiled and said, "I bought it the second year I came to Beijing. Didn't I have money at that time? I wanted to buy some industries. I accidentally heard that this house was very cheap and I bought it."
"Cheap?"
Qingshu naturally would not tell her the real reason for buying a house, so that it would save trouble again: "At that time, this house was very cheap, only half of the market price. Later, I learned that this house had been replaced by several owners. Those owners either lost their families or failed in business. Many people thought that this was a haunted house, so they were idle."
Mrs. Gu's face changed drastically: "How can you let Jingen live in such a house? What if it is deteriorated and its future will be affected?"
Qingshu smiled and said, "Grandma, several emperors from the previous dynasty died in the palace. Do you think the emperor is living well now? What kind of haunted house is just a man-made disaster. I told him before Jingen moved in, and he didn't believe it."
Mrs. Gu reminded: "There is no problem with Jingen, that is, his fortune is strong and not affected. If it is a person with weak fortune, it may be affected."
"No, you can't live in that house in the future. Qingshu, you should think that this place is small and you can buy it again."
Qingshu didn't want to change the house. She thought Jinyu Hutong was pretty good. Not only was the house big and the security around it was good, but it was also very close to the yamen. From then on, she and Fu Jingen went to the yamen to work, and it was very convenient to go back and forth.
As for buying a house, you will be able to buy a house that suits you in a while. Moreover, this house was also a special situation at the beginning, otherwise it would not be so easy to buy.
After thinking for a while, Qingshu said, "Grandma, it's not just Jingen who lives alone in that house. Mr. Zhang and Mr. Guan lived in it before the exam. If you say that, they both have to fail the exam? But you see, they have all passed the provincial examination."
"It's okay for everyone else. Li Nan's ended up just trying the waters this time without any hope. As a result, he passed the exam, and his ranking was pretty good."
For those students who pass the first and second grades, the third grade is not enough. But for ordinary people, it is very good to be able to pass the first and second grades.
After hearing this, Mrs. Gu couldn't help but smile: "I heard what you said, that's not a haunted house, but a Feng Shui treasure land."
"Grandma, you're right. I think that's a Feng Shui treasure land. Look, Jingen and Zhang Fu will definitely perform very well in the palace examination."
This is entirely to ease the old lady's heart. Whether the performance in the palace examination is good depends on their own knowledge and psychological quality.
Mrs. Gu had a flash of inspiration and said, "Did you say that the boss named Hu wanted to buy this house at a high price because of this reason?"
Qingshu shook his head and said, "I don't know. I'll ask Jiang Fangfei to find out the details of this person later."
If she only thinks that the house is a Fengshui treasure land, then she will not be lenient if she covets the wine cellar in the house.
Soon Jiang Fangfei told Qingshu the news he found: "This boss Hu is a wealthy businessman in Jiangzhou. His son will also be the test this year, but he failed. I don't know who said that our house is a Feng Shui treasure land, and you can pass the Jinshi if you live there. Boss Hu's family has money and hopes that his son can become an official. When he knows that Mr. Zhang and Mr. Li did live in that house before the exam, and then he passed the exam, he thought about it."
"That's true?"
Jiang Fangfei knew what she was concerned about: "Girl, only you and the young master know that secret. Boss Hu would not know unless he had the ability to dominate the sky."
He knew that there was a century-old wine cellar in the house, but he didn't know where the wine cellar was hidden. How could Boss Hu know about something he didn't know?
"And even if the other party knows that the house is only a hundred-year-old wine cellar, can we still keep the wine for him if we want to sell the house?"
