Chapter 97 Real Estate in the City



Zheng Yeheng had a lot of grievances, not because the princess had gone too far, but also because he met Wang Yi at the most important moment of his life.

The battle of Shengyun City is the critical moment for his success or failure, and there must be no dirty deeds behind him.

Even if Wang Yi didn't treat him well, it was worth it to be free and leave the house. Otherwise, the princess might do something strange to Wang Yi.

If he is not careful, he will not be able to protect her. If she dies, what will happen if he kills the princess then?

He must cut off this kind of thing before it happens and not regret it later.

Zheng Yeheng didn't say anything. He just smiled evilly and said, "If the attack on Shengyun City fails, I will become the landlord of your farm, okay?"

"Your Highness, there is no landlord on the farm, and I am the only one who has the final say. You can come and be a tenant farmer." Wang Yi raised his head slightly and wanted to smile. He felt a little touched in his heart, but it quickly passed.

The gap in their status was too great. How could he, a royal relative, become a farmer?

"Okay. If you give me a good meal, I'll be your tenant farmer. Seeing you every day is enough for me."

Mo Naihe and Shen Yueru, who were following not far behind them, paused. What did they just hear?

The prince and Mr. Wang Yi call themselves "I"?

The prince said he wanted to be a tenant farmer for Mr. Wang Yi?

Has the prince lowered his status to this extent?

He wants to be with Mr. Wang Yi... ?

The couple looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

Before this, they always thought that Zheng Yeheng was only grateful to Wang Yi for saving his life and was respectful to her because Wang Yi had superb medical skills.

Now it seems wrong!

The prince's favorite gentleman!

"Shhh."

Shen Yueru gestured silently, and Mo Naihe nodded repeatedly.

Since the prince himself acted so cheaply, they might as well pretend not to hear.

Wang Yi heard footsteps behind him and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She punched Zheng Yeheng hard and said, "Shame on you! What are you talking about in front of so many people?"

"Can I talk when no one is around?"

"absurd!"

Her face was burning. Although she had seen countless wolf and dog cubs in her previous life, she felt that something was particularly wrong today.

"I am the mother of seven sons, please don't set your sights on me, Your Majesty!"

Zheng Yeheng sat at the top seat, followed by Mo Naihe and his wife, Wang Yi sat opposite them, and Lan Miao and the other sat in the side hall for dinner.

Soon, each table was served with a few simple dishes and two plates of cold snacks.

"The mansion has never prepared much food. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Your Highness."

"No problem. I'll trouble you, Brother Mo, to run around for me today."

"The prince's business is my business. Respect the prince!"

When they had finished their meal for about 70 minutes, Mo Naihe said to Wang Yi:

"Last time, I told you that you could choose any shop or house in the city to repay my son's recovery. Tomorrow I will send my housekeeper with a list for you, and you can choose whatever you like from the list."

Wang Yi sighed at the thought. She couldn't travel freely between the farm and the city, so her enthusiasm for the shop waned somewhat. But being able to settle her unmarried sons in the city was also a good thing.

Suddenly, Zheng Yeheng asked, "Wang Yi, what do you think of my mansion?"

"The prince's house is naturally the best in the city."

Zheng Yeheng also has his own palace in Kyoto. This is just an outer residence, but it is still the largest one in the city.

"Then I will give you the house in exchange for a business."

"What business?"

"Let me sell your facial mask. I can send it to Kyoto quickly and give it to those who need it more. By then, a facial mask will be worth a thousand gold coins, and it won't take much effort."

“…” Wang Yi’s eyes lit up and he thought this was a good business.

But she quickly came to her senses: "To be honest, I can only produce ten masks a day, so there's a limit to how much money I can earn."

Hearing that only ten copies could be produced per day, Zheng Yeheng looked disappointed and asked, "Can't we expand production?"

"There's nothing I can do."

Shen Yueru quickly stood up and saluted: “The mask is so precious, thank you sir.”

"Ma'am, you're welcome. This is my intention."

Zheng Yeheng was silent for a moment before continuing, "I have no use for that mansion, so I'll give it to you. As for the facial masks, I'll give them to my pastry shop. I'll buy out ten of them per day for a thousand taels. The highest-selling person in my shop can purchase an additional one. How do you do it?"

Wang Yi was really impressed.

Are you so anxious to give me the house?

That house is worth at least 70,000 or 80,000 taels of silver. Do you think I can afford it?

You gave me the house as a gift and then paid to buy it back. Aren’t you short of money, Your Highness?

Zheng Yeheng added, "Oh, by the way, this little bit of silver won't be of any use in military supplies. You don't have to worry about me."

Wang Yi: “…”

Okay, you have money.

Wang Yi felt that Zheng Yeheng must be pretending to be pitiful when he said he had no money.

It turns out that men are full of tricks.

Wang Yi refused to accept his property no matter what, and Zheng Yeheng was ultimately unable to sell his house.

That night, the city lord sent someone to escort Wang Yi and the other two back to the inn, and made an appointment to meet with the housekeeper the next day.

Early in the morning, Wang Yi gave Lan Miao and Sha Jie five taels of silver each and asked them to go out to the market.

When I arrived yesterday, it was almost afternoon and the market was closed.

The two girls took the money and left happily. She then leisurely ordered a bowl of wontons at the inn and ate it slowly.

“Sign in!”

"Successful sign-in. You have obtained 30 square meters of permanent land! You have also obtained 10 bags of ripening fertilizer!"

Nothing surprising or exciting, but very practical.

Especially with these 30 square meters of land, the area for fast-growing crops in her space has exceeded 200 square meters, a total of 210 square meters.

While eating, she quickly planted a crop of "Western specialties" on the newly acquired land. The cumin and peppercorns she planted at the beginning had grown very tall, and green peppercorns could be seen on them.

"Mrs. Wang Yi, you've been waiting for a long time."

Just after finishing the meal, the steward of the City Lord's Mansion came in a carriage.

He held a booklet in his hand, which contained the deeds to many properties.

Wang Yi felt much more relaxed. As long as she didn't have to face Zheng Yeheng, she was willing to accept any property.

The housekeeper spread out the booklet and said with a smile, "This is all the properties in the City Lord's Mansion. This side is outside the city, this side is inside the city, this side is the West City District, and this side is the East City District. Take a look, the City Lord said, I'll give you as much as you want!"

atmosphere!

But Wang Yi was not greedy. She only needed a shop and a place to stay. No matter how nice the city lord said, she could not take everything away. That would be a crime that would wipe out the entire family.

Don’t choose the one outside the city. It’s a mess outside the city now. It’s not as safe as the farm.

Not in the city, not even in the outskirts.

In the end, Wang Yi selected several houses, all near the market. She planned to take a look and then choose a residence and a shop from them.

Then he smiled and said to the housekeeper: "Thank you for your hard work. Take me to see it."
