Chapter 929 Buying a House in Beijing
Shao Yunduan was going to negotiate with Lu Min and the others at the carriage and horse shop and the escort agency, so Qiao Xuan took Liqiu and Lixia out for a stroll.
Good things can be hard to come by, and Qiao Xuan had originally had no hope for new crops like potatoes, but she did find quite a few apple and pear trees.
The beginning of summer and the beginning of autumn were much easier to fool. Qiao Xuan could find an excuse to get rid of them temporarily. She bought some fruit trees and found a quiet alley where no one could be seen. She could then store the saplings in the space.
Two days later, all repairs and replenishment were completed, and the group set off early in the morning, accompanied by four bodyguards.
It is already the beginning of March, and the weather is getting warmer as we move further north.
It was a sunny day and quite hot.
Fortunately, the weather was generally pleasant, making the journey much easier.
After galloping all the way, hurrying as fast as possible, they finally arrived in the capital three days later.
“We’re finally here!”
"yes!"
Shao Yunduan, Lu Min, Gu Zhiyou and the others' eyes and expressions when they looked towards the capital city became different.
For scholars all over the world, the capital is not just a city, but also the starting point for them to realize their ambitions.
No matter how talented and ambitious you are, without passing the hurdle of the Spring Examination, everything is just empty talk.
Only by successfully crossing this step, like a carp leaping over the dragon gate, can one be considered to have a background and qualifications.
As for what the long official road will be like in the future, it all depends on each person's luck.
In any case, this place is undoubtedly sacred and full of longing and hope for them.
After all, they know very well how hard the road to fame and fortune is. Many people study hard for their entire lives and still remain just a student!
Those who can stand here as candidates for the Spring Examination are all the best selected from thousands.
For a moment, the three of them were overwhelmed with emotion.
High-spirited, uneasy, nervous, bold, confident.
Looking at their expressions, Qiao Xuan could understand them. She must have felt similarly during the college entrance examination!
The three of them expressed their feelings and then went into the city together.
Arriving in the capital, they found an inn to stay in, and the mission of the four bodyguards was over. That night, they received their reward and said goodbye to them, leaving the inn and choosing a day to return.
No words were spoken all night.
The next day, the four of them had a small gathering at the restaurant and ordered some wine and food.
"Congratulations on our successful trip!"
"This trip went smoothly, this trip went smoothly, and the Spring Examination will surely go smoothly as well!"
"Yes, yes, good luck in the Spring Examination! Come on, cheers!"
The sacredness and prosperity of the Emperor's City made the few people feel very fresh and excited. It would be worth their life if they could visit here in their lifetime.
At this moment of lively gathering, everyone is in a particularly good mood and does not think too much about the serious and disturbing matter of the Spring Examination.
As we chatted and laughed about family matters, we inevitably talked about plans for the next day.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan had discussed it last night, and they planned to buy a small house in the capital to live in.
Because they still had to cause trouble for the Qiao family, it was not very convenient to stay in an inn.
Impact on performance.
When they heard the two say they wanted to buy a house in Beijing, Lu Min and Gu Zhiyou gasped in awe.
"As expected of you two!"
"Ahem, you two are really generous!"
Buying a house in Beijing! This is really not something that ordinary people can afford.
A small house of the same size in Beijing costs at least ten times more than in a provincial capital.
