"I want to buy a house or land. Are there any resources available recently?" Qin Chuan asked.
The agent paused for a moment, clearly not understanding the meaning of the word "resources," but quickly smiled and nodded: "Sir, you want to buy a house and land? Yes, we do. How big of a house and how big of a plot of land would you like to buy?"
"The bigger the better!"
"Do you have any requirements regarding the price?"
"The more expensive, the better!"
"Okay, please wait a moment, sir."
The agent went to the counter and retrieved a thick booklet containing recent information on house and land sales, but because this wasn't a government-run brokerage, the registered information was extremely limited…
"Turns out, we went to the wrong place. This is a private brokerage firm, not a government-run one. No wonder it looks so desolate..."
Qin Chuan mentally scoffed, but then thought, "Private brokerages are great, they're bound to rip me off. The more they rip me off, the more I make..."
With a secret sense of delight, Qin Chuan made up his mind to buy a house and land through this private brokerage firm.
A moment later, the agent pointed to a record in the booklet and said, "There is a mansion in the suburbs, a large courtyard with six courtyards and six exits. The land surrounding the courtyard also belongs to the seller, which perfectly solves your needs for buying a house and land at the same time..."
Qin Chuan's eyes lit up when he saw the message: "The house occupies 18 acres, plus 30 acres of surrounding land, that's big enough! This is it! How much!"
The agent said, "This used to be the residence of a high-ranking official in the imperial court. The family is selling the property because they have moved away."
"Just tell me how much it costs!" Qin Chuan said impatiently.
It didn't concern him whether the official was high-ranking or not, but after moving into the house, he realized why the official had listed it for sale through a private brokerage firm. It turned out that the official was afraid of being discovered by the authorities for violating regulations and exceeding standards for his residence.
"Sir, the house and land together cost 35,000 taels of silver," the agent said.
"Okay, find the seller and we'll sign the contract." Qin Chuan agreed without hesitation.
The broker said that they could only find the seller tomorrow because the seller had instructed them to return to Jiangzhou tomorrow.
The next day, Qin Chuan went to the brokerage alone again, but the seller was unwilling to show himself. Instead, he wrapped himself up tightly in a black cloak, as if afraid of being recognized.
Qin Chuan ignored all of that, signed the contract, obtained the house title deed and the title deed for the surrounding land, and the system reward notification arrived promptly.
[Detected that the host spent 2 on his wife this time, now returning 100 times the amount]
[3.5 million taels of silver can be withdrawn]
[This could also be equivalent to 13.6 billion yuan in modern goods]
[Would you prefer ancient silver or modern goods?]
"3.5 million ancient silver coins, let's deposit them first!"
Qin Chuan walked to a secluded spot and finally couldn't help but dance with joy: "I'm rich! I'm rich!"
