Chapter 120 Inquiry



Listening to the random and meaningless gossip flying around, Lai Siyu observed for a moment and realized that she was the only one ordering dim sum, and the only one who ordered a pot of tea by herself... ?6810ggggggggggd

Basically, a table of people shared a pot of tea. Combined with what we saw in the abandoned mining area before, there should be a shortage of food here, so the price of food is ridiculously high.

"I wonder if Miss Park's wedding will go ahead as planned despite all this chaos?"

"Who knows? I heard the groom is a distant branch of the Xiao family. The eldest daughter of the Pu family is extremely beautiful and is the designated heir to the Pu family. The Xiao family sent a distant branch to marry into the family, but I didn't expect the Pu family to join the other three families to destroy the Xiao family."

"In the eyes of these big families, marriage is nothing. They can give up anything for the sake of profit, not to mention that she is just a distant relative. Besides, what's the difference between a man who marries into the family and a woman who marries out? Since she has already been given to the Park family by the Xiao family, they won't try anyone else from the Xiao family..."

"You guys don't even know the real resemblance. How can the groom be a distant relative of the Xiao family..."

"Qi San'er, tell me clearly what's going on. Don't be so mysterious."

"My aunt's eldest nephew's wife's brother's brother-in-law works for Miss Park. The groom fell from above and almost died. He was picked up by someone from the Xiao family... and then he was kidnapped by the eldest brother and sister..."

When Qi Saner said this, everyone's faces immediately showed an expression of understanding.

Lai Siyu's heart moved. Could the person he was talking about be Brother Erniu?

"Qi Saner, what does the groom look like?" someone asked. Lai Siyu almost wanted to rush up and kiss him. He was so considerate.

"this……"

"Just keep talking nonsense, all this complicated relationship stuff. Don't believe him, he's definitely making it up." Someone started to make fun of him, and Qi Saner's face turned red.

"Of course I know that someone in the middle stage of foundation building cultivation is handsome..."

"Tsk, how could the guy the young lady likes not be handsome? How could his cultivation not be high? Do you even need to tell me that?"

The eldest daughter of the Park family, Brother Erniu.

Lai Siyu decided to ask around, so she called the waiter and asked, "Are there any private rooms?"

The waiter's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes. A private room will cost an extra five low-grade spirit stones."

Five! Holy crap! So Lin Guaner's chrysanthemum is only worth five low-grade spirit stones.

In this case, even if his chrysanthemums turned into sunflowers, he would not be able to make a fortune.

Lai Siyu's mouth twitched. "It's too expensive. Can't it be cheaper?"

The waiter smiled shyly, "Sir, we don't bargain, but if you book a private room, the regular messages are free..."

She was right, this tea house really does have news.

Five low-grade spirit stones were too expensive for Lai Siyu to do business with the illustrious Mr. Hong of Ruyi Hall.

"Forget it, waiter, do you have any familiar customers?" Lai Siyu asked as she handed Xiao twenty spirit beads.

The waiter immediately took the spirit pearl into his arms and asked with a smile, "Do you want to buy a house or a person..."

"He fell in love with a poor girl and wanted to keep her outside..." Lai Siyu whispered.

The waiter understood immediately, revealing a look of understanding. "Why bother asking for customers? I'm here to serve you. Please wait a moment. I'll go ask for leave from the shopkeeper..."

After a while, the waiter came and took Lai Siyu out of the teahouse and walked west.

"How big a yard do you want?" asked the waiter.

Yes, this is a problem. If we buy a bigger one, we can transfer some people from Laijiazhuang to be stationed here.

It's easier to get things done when you have people under you.

"A courtyard with three or four entrances is fine, but it depends on the price," said Lai Siyu.

"There weren't many courtyards like this before, but after the Huo and Xiao families disappeared, many courtyards became vacant, and many have three or four entrances. The price depends on the location..." the waiter introduced carefully.

Not long after, the two came to a small square and entered a shop called Ronghuitang.

This is a real estate agency, unlike Pengcheng, where the government is responsible for this kind of business.

The store was not big, and there were no models or anything. In the hall, a middle-aged woman was dozing off on the counter.

Lai Siyu couldn't help but sigh, wondering how bad the business here must be.

"Sixth Aunt, a guest is coming!" The waiter smiled at Lai Siyu embarrassedly and knocked on the counter.

"Uh~ sir, where are you? Where are you?" The middle-aged woman raised her head suddenly, and before her eyelids were fully opened, she looked around for someone.

"Sixth Aunt, here it is." The waiter was anxious. What kind of look was that?

"Hehe~ Sorry, Shuanzi, please let the guests sit down." Aunt Liu raised her sleeve to wipe the drool from the corner of her mouth and greeted him warmly.

The two invited Lai Siyu to sit down, and the waiter went to the back to make tea. Aunt Six then asked Lai Siyu, "Sir, do you want to rent or buy? Do you want a house, a shop, or a house with a shop..."

"Buy it, a house with four or five courtyards and a shop." Lai Siyu said.

The woman was delighted to hear this. What a big deal! Who could afford a house with three or four entrances and exits without some financial resources?

"Sir, you've come at the perfect time. Recently, quite a few houses with shops have been put up for sale. They're all good houses. Take a look..."

The woman quickly took out a map, spread it in front of Lai Siyu and began to point.

"This four-story house originally belonged to a steward of the Huo family, with a total of six shops. The street across the street all belonged to the Liao family, and it's located in a prosperous area, so the location is quite good... This three-story courtyard here originally belonged to the Xiao family, with four shops. Although the location isn't as good as the Huo family's house, it's still quite good with the Pu family in front and the Rao family behind it... This four-story house..."

? ?t5?\k??_?zu??4 Aunt Liu talked incessantly for a long time, and before she knew it, the lights had come on.

Lai Siyu carefully inquired about the situation of each house and finally decided on a five-courtyard house next to the Park family.

Aunt Liu sent out a sound transmission note, and soon the landlord came. Aunt Liu introduced him as someone from the Rao family.

The formalities were completed quickly. In Heiya City, no purchase required official verification. Of course, there was no official here. All the parties had to do was "hand over" the land deed and sign the purchase documents.

Although there is no official permission, the purchase document here is equivalent to a blood contract, and the party dare not commit fraud. If the party defrauds the buyer, he will be retaliated by the blood contract.

This house cost Lai Siyu more than two thousand low-grade spirit stones. If it were in Pengcheng, these spirit stones could rent a house like this for a year. If you want to buy it, you can dream on.

Aunt Six was also very happy. The deal was done, and she took fifty low-grade spirit stones from both parties. This was a considerable income.

"Aunt Liu, I want to buy some servants. Does Aunt Liu have any familiar brokers to recommend?" Lai Siyu asked.
