Chapter 346: Rich Lu Lingyun

"This is a nice house."

Tong Nanxia praised it with admiration.

"Madam, many high-ranking officials have lived in my house before!" Seeing that Tong Nanxia was interested, the matchmaker tried harder to sell her house. "Everyone who lived here has been promoted. The previous owner of this house was sent to Lingnan to serve as the governor. It has been less than five years since he was promoted. Our house is definitely a Feng Shui treasure land!"

"Cousin, this house is nice." Tong Nanxia said.

"You two are both noble ladies, with delicate bodies. You must be tired after walking around for a while. I have prepared some tea in the front yard. Go and have some tea. I will take you to our backyard later! I will carefully check it out inside and out. I will not let you buy it at a loss!"

At this time, Lu Lingyun could not help but admire the matchmaker's foresight and eloquence. He urged them to go drink tea, and the morning was almost over. He then took them for a walk, and most of the afternoon was gone. They were tired from walking, and had looked around carefully. They didn't need to go to see the house next door today.

Lu Lingyunhuan was quite satisfied with the house. She nodded and said, "Okay, I won't drink tea, but this house. How much is it?"

Lu Lingyun was too lazy to go anywhere else, so she just booked it.

"Hello, Madam! May Madam be rich and prosperous! Our house is not expensive. The previous owner left in a hurry. We can buy it for only three thousand taels!" The matchmaker said nice things repeatedly and quickly signaled her assistant to get something. "I'll go get the land deed and documents. We can go to the government office today to change the name and transfer the ownership!"

Three thousand taels is definitely not a small amount!

Land is expensive in the capital, and it costs about fifty to one hundred taels for an ordinary family in the south or west of the city to buy a tiled house with a yard. If you want to buy a proper house, the minimum price is three hundred taels.

Ordinary people in those days could earn no more than one or two coins a month working in Beijing, and no more than two taels of silver a year. To settle down in Beijing, the whole family would have to go without food and drink for more than 20 years.

This three-way house is something that ordinary people can never dream of! The starting price is one thousand taels!

The asking price for this house is three thousand taels, which is not a low price.

"Your asking price of three thousand taels is not low." Lu Lingyun said.

"Madam, don't you see where this house is? This is the most valuable land in the east of the city. The neighbors are either rich or noble, and they are all high-ranking officials! There are a few three-story houses in the south of the city that cost about 1,000 taels, but all of them are occupied by rich people!" The matchmaker smiled, "With your indescribable status, you definitely can't live in such a place!"

"That's true. The houses in the east of the city are expensive." Tong Nanxia said.

Tong Nanxia never had to worry about money in her life, and she married into a very wealthy Duke's Mansion. Although she did not manage the Duke's Mansion's salary, she received a monthly allowance of three hundred taels of silver, and during the holidays, the Duke's Mansion gave her subsidies of hundreds or even thousands of taels of silver. This did not count the rare and precious things her husband, Zhao Yanshu, would give her from time to time to please her.

She never had to worry about money.

In her opinion, three thousand taels was really not expensive.

Seeing Tong Nanxia like this, the matchmaker tried harder, "Yes! Our house is also good. There are not many houses like this in the east of the city! Three thousand taels is definitely not expensive."

Lu Lingyun glanced at the matchmaker with a gleam in her eyes and said calmly, "Two thousand three hundred taels."

It's okay to lie to others, but it's absolutely unacceptable to lie to her.

"This, this," the matchmaker was surprised to see Lu Lingyun's offer. "Madam, this price is unacceptable. We accepted the commission from the previous owner and promised to give him a certain amount of money. When the time comes, we have to give him the money. Your price is really unacceptable."

Lu Lingyun glanced at her and said, "I know very well how much the land in Beijing costs. I'm going to give you this price, and I guarantee that your business will not lose money, but will make a profit. If you want to rip off a big customer, then you just have to wait and see. I'll go look somewhere else."

Even if Lu Lingyun had money, she would never eat such a slaughtered pig.

This house was basically worth two thousand taels, but he thought she was the kind of fool who never managed the household accounts and asked for an extra thousand taels.

Controlling reasonable price expenditure is a must for a housewife.

She didn't want to be the mistress of the house anymore after being fooled and wasting so much money.

When the matchmaker saw Lu Lingyun's precise bargaining, she knew the market conditions very well.

When their brokerage firm took over the house, they had initially agreed on a minimum price of two thousand taels as a guarantee for the previous owner. If it sold for more, most of the profit would be from their brokerage firm.

Lu Lingyun bargained down the price to twenty-three hundred taels, which left a profit of three hundred taels for their business. This price was very accurate and painful for them.

If the profit is less than three hundred taels, they will definitely not sell it. If the profit is more than three hundred taels, they will definitely sell it with tears in their eyes. They will never let it go.

But the amount of three hundred taels made her extremely embarrassed!

"Madam, please add a little more. Two thousand three hundred taels is really not enough..."

"If it doesn't work, let's go and have a look. It won't waste my time." Lu Lingyun made another precise decision.

This time, the matchmaker really felt Lu Lingyun's shrewdness.

From the moment she entered the door, she had already made arrangements in her mind, and she would never let her follow her plan!

This lady is really hard to fool!

"Madam, Madam, please listen to me again. Our house..."

Seeing that she was about to talk in a charming and charming manner again, Lu Lingyun was too lazy to listen to her words and winked at Nanny Wan.

The extremely lethal Wan Nanny stepped forward and said, "That's enough. Our young lady's time is precious. She doesn't have time to listen to your nonsense. If it can be done, it can be done. If it can't be done, just go away! Your dental clinic can't afford to waste our young lady's time!"

Seeing that the person in front of her was not a lady from a rich family who was easy to talk to because of her wealth, the matchmaker gritted her teeth and said, "Madam, please stay. This price is acceptable!"

After hearing this, Lu Lingyun finally smiled.

On that day, she finalized the wedding house for Lu Kuan and Tong Nanying.

When it was time to pay, Tong Nanxia said, "Cousin, I'll pay for this house."

"What are you going to do?"

"Cousin," Tong Nanxia saw that she was bargaining very considerately and thought that she had no money. She blinked her watery eyes and said, "I have money."

Lu Lingyun looked at her and smiled, "I know you have money, and I have money too."

She made her fortune with the help of the Marquis' Mansion. After so many years of management, plus subsidies from Qin and the Marquis' Mansion, Lu Lingyun had already become extremely wealthy.

She now owns forty or fifty shops in the capital, seventy or eighty manors, and nearly a thousand acres of farmland and forest. Her own private property is now almost as valuable as that of the entire marquis's mansion!

Even if the Marquis' Mansion is in decline now, her own wealth is enough for her to live the life of a young lady of the Marquis' Mansion for the rest of her life!
