Chapter 229: Madam Liu Forced Purchase
"Master, what should we do?" The servant asked all the families in a row and got the same answer.
Master Liu frowned: "Did they say anything about the family?"
"It seems to be related to the school that the Luo family is going to open." The servant told the rumor he had just heard. "These people trust the Luo family very much. They think that since they are building a school here, this place must be right, so they don't want to sell it."
Mr. Liu thought it was ridiculous: "Aren't they all poor families?"
The servant nodded: "Yes, but no matter what I say, they just won't sell it!"
Mr. Liu felt that the root of the problem still lay with the Luo family, so he turned around and went to Huaxiang Tower.
Nearing noon, business in Huaxianglou was booming.
Mr. Liu waited in the room for a while before Wen Baolu came over.
"Where's your wife? I have a business deal to discuss with her."
Wen Baolu smiled faintly: "Madam should rest in the mansion at this time. If Master Liu has anything to say, just tell me and I will definitely pass it on to you."
As the two were talking, there was a burst of noise outside.
Wen Baolu pushed open the door and saw that it was his wife accompanying the third young master. Master Liu pushed him aside and trotted over.
"Mrs. Zhu, it's been a long time since we last met."
He smiled, and the arrogance he had when they met before was completely gone, as if the two of them had never had any conflicts.
"Is there something wrong?" Luo Xiao looked at him unfriendly. When he saw people related to Prefect Liu, the hairs on his body stood up like a hedgehog.
Mr. Liu smiled and nodded, "I wonder if it's convenient for you two. I have a business matter I'd like to discuss with Madam."
In the box.
Zhu Mingqing and Luo Xiao sat down, and Master Liu smiled and poured each of them a cup of tea, "Come, please enjoy."
Zhu Mingqing and his mother looked at each other. Did they want to discuss the issue of food supply?
"I'd like to make it clear in advance that Huaxianglou will not be short of food. If Mr. Liu wants to do this business, there's no need to ask." Zhu Mingqing said bluntly.
"No." Master Liu continued to smile. "How is the tea? Is it delicious?"
Zhu Mingqing couldn't help but laugh: "Master Liu, do you even need to ask if the tea at Huaxianglou tastes good?"
Mr. Liu nodded. "Yes, yes, yes. I just heard that Madam Zhu bought two courtyards in Chengliu Lane. Do you think you can sell them to me?"
Fearing that the other party would not agree, he stretched out his hand and said, "I will pay 500 taels for each yard!"
If I had known earlier, I would have bought it for three hundred taels. Now I have two hundred taels more.
It hurts so much!
Zhu Mingqing was surprised: "You want to buy those two courtyards?"
Master Liu nodded: "How is it?"
Zhu Mingqing asked in return, "That yard was already there before. Why didn't you buy it? Why are you insisting that I buy it before you come to buy it?"
Master Liu sighed, "Madam Zhu, you don't know that the house is unlucky. I just wanted to lower the price. Now that those families heard you were going to open a school, I tried to buy it first, but no one is willing to sell."
Zhu Mingqing smiled but said nothing. "How about Master Liu let me think about it?"
Mr. Liu nodded quickly: "No problem, but tomorrow at the latest. If it's too late, I'm afraid that all the remaining money will be used to buy food..."
What this means is that the purchase price can be reduced.
After Master Liu left, Luo Xiao immediately said, "Mother, we can't sell it! I've worked so hard to find this place for my eldest sister-in-law and fourth sister. It's surrounded by common people, many children, and a quiet environment. It's really a good place to run a school."
"We can't sell it to them even if we don't need it!"
Luo Xiao just holds a grudge!
For everything that happened that day, he would definitely take revenge if he had the chance.
The next day, Mr. Liu learned about the Luo family's decision without receiving any information.
He once again went to the residence of Magistrate Liu.
"Brother-in-law, please help me." Master Liu begged, "I swear, that place is really a Feng Shui treasure land!"
Prefect Liu was depressed. "What a feng shui treasure land! What were you doing there before? Now that someone has snatched it away, you're worried."
Mr. Liu was filled with melancholy. “I was originally planning to leave those people alone and wait until I found Xu Changqin before buying him. Who knew it would be such a coincidence?”
Prefect Liu called the transaction assistant who was in charge of the real estate transaction. After learning that all the procedures had been completed, he waved his hand and asked him to leave.
"You see, they've already done it. I won't confront the Luo family now. You figure this out on your own." He held out a hand, "Give me the silver."
Mr. Liu immediately said, "No, leave the banknote with me first. I'll think of a way. What if the other party really sells it?"
When Magistrate Liu thought about the Feng Shui treasure land that the other party mentioned, he was indeed tempted.
"Then you can do whatever you want, but the premise is that you must not let the relationship deteriorate any further!"
Mr. Liu assured: "Don't worry, brother-in-law, I know the seriousness of the matter."
…
Zhu Mingqing secretly asked someone to investigate the situation in Chengliu Lane, and asked the people about Mr. Liu.
"I said that Mr. Liu is a sneaky and cunning person!" Luo Xiao said angrily.
Zhu Mingqing smiled faintly: "A Feng Shui treasure land, nonsense!"
Luo Xiao became curious instead: "Maybe it really is a Feng Shui treasure land?"
"Zhu Mingqing: Then why are the people there still so poor?"
Luo Xiao became interested: "Who knows, maybe the feng shui will improve after your school is established."
After the words fell, Fen Tao's voice came from outside, "Madam, Madam Liu wants to see you."
"Okay, I won't come myself. Let her wife come instead." Luo Xiao raised his eyebrows.
"No!" Zhu Mingqing replied.
A quarter of an hour later, there was a bustling noise outside.
The door was pushed open violently.
"Mrs. Zhu, it's really not easy to see you." Mrs. Liu appeared at the door.
Zhu Mingqing's expression remained unchanged. He stood up with a smile and glanced at Fen Tao and the maid behind her.
Her headdress was disheveled and her sleeves were a little torn.
It can be seen that there was an argument just now.
Mrs. Liu sat down in a seat aside without any hesitation, with a bold attitude, and she did not feel uncomfortable at all for intruding into someone else's house.
"You haven't even served me a cup of tea. Madam Zhu, your hospitality needs improvement."
Zhu Mingqing walked forward slowly and stood in front of Madam Liu. His eyes were so fierce that Madam Liu couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
"You...what are you looking at?"
Zhu Mingqing snorted coldly, "You also said it, the etiquette of hospitality! You come uninvited and trespass into a private house. Come on, report to the police!"
"You dare!" Mrs. Liu wanted to get up.
Zhu Mingqing pressed his hands directly on her shoulders. A heavy pain came from the gaps between her bones, and Mrs. Liu's face showed pain.
"Let me go! I came here today to give you face. Are you going to sell the house or not?"
Zhu Mingqing sneered: "Tsk, Master Liu married you, and he really married a 'good wife'!"
This is the first time I've seen someone come to someone's door so arrogantly and ask them to sell their house.
Madam Liu struggled hard, but she was being held too tightly. She threatened, "You should know who my brother-in-law is. I'm warning you, let go quickly, or none of you will be able to escape."
