Chapter 117 Buying a House



Jiang Ling nodded with satisfaction along the way. Ancient houses basically had this layout. He was mainly satisfied with the decoration and furniture inside.

He looked at the furniture in the house and this alone must be worth one or two thousand silver coins.

It's almost brand new, just clean it and move in with no further repairs required.

He nodded in satisfaction and asked.

"Is it the same in the house next door?"

The dealer smiled and replied, "Yes, sir, they were all renovated at the same time, and the craftsmen were all the same group."

However, I can also take you to see it in person.

Jiang Ling nodded in agreement and followed him to the house next door.

If you want to buy it, you must see it with your own eyes. Now that you are here, it won’t make any difference if you just walk a few steps.

When Jiang Ling walked into the house next door, he realized that they were exactly the same. Did Master Wang intend to keep his two concubines together?

Isn't that really convenient for him? Hahaha.

When I thought about it, I found it quite funny. It seems that rich people are very brave.

Whether it is murder or raising a mistress.

They feel that since they have money, they can do whatever they want and the whole world is theirs.

Jiang Ling shook his head and really couldn't agree.

If you have money but don't value your life, reputation, or blessings, there is only one way left for you in the end: go in and eat a free meal.

It’s not that I won’t report it, it will come even if it’s late!

After looking around, Jiang Ling finally walked out of the gate with the two children.

"Xiao Doudou, Xiao Haozi, do you like this house?"

When asked suddenly, Jiang Hao responded immediately.

"Yeah, it's very nice. It's a separate courtyard where the whole family lives together. I'll take Doudou into one room so I can take care of him."

Unexpectedly, Xiao Haozi even thought of this. Jiang Ling touched his head.

"I'll listen to you. Doudou will be three soon and can sleep by himself. I'll put two beds in the same room for you two."

Jiang Hao's eyes lit up when he heard this and he nodded with satisfaction.

When the little guy heard that he was sleeping, he looked at Jiang Ling excitedly.

"Daddy, I like this house. I want to sleep there by myself."

Hearing that both children liked it, Jiang Ling rubbed the little one's head.

"Okay, I'll help you arrange it after I buy the house."

He is the one who is happy that the little cub can sleep by himself, and he is also the one who is happy that he doesn't have to take care of the little cub.

He looked at the brothel owner and asked.

"How much is the house?"

"Guest, the owner offered 8,000 taels of silver. As you can see, the interior and furniture are all brand new and no one has ever lived there. This is a very good thing.

Moreover, our area is almost entirely populated by wealthy families. For the two young masters, the cultural environment is quite good. Not only is it safe, but the friends they meet are either rich or noble.

Besides, the young masters can go to study at the academy in front, which is only a quarter of an hour's walk away.

Life is also quite convenient here. There is a vegetable market just a quarter of an hour’s walk to the right from the main gate, which has almost everything you need for daily life.

Continue walking for another quarter of an hour and you'll reach the center of the main street, which is well connected."

The agent's salesperson was quite professional, explaining everything from the children's cultural environment, schooling convenience, life convenience, and the prosperity of the main city and developed transportation.

It's comparable to modern sales staff.

"You are right, and I am satisfied. I will not say more. I am sincere in buying and will pay immediately. 5,000 taels per set. I want both sets and will pay and sign the contract immediately.

Think about it carefully!"

It was the first time that the broker was being bargained for like this, and he was a little confused, but he reacted quickly.

"Sir, the price you offer is too low. I dare not accept it!" He didn't look like he was lying.

Jiangling then rose a little again.

"5500 per set, you're sincere, right?"

The broker was a little nervous. This was a big client and he could get a lot of commission if he closed the deal.

But this customer is really good at bargaining.

If Jiang Ling knew what he was thinking, he would probably die of laughter.

Will this drive down prices?

Modern people bargain directly, which is already very generous. It is mainly because they are quite satisfied and don’t want to look at other options.

If it were Shen Yinyun, he might have directly bargained it down to 4,000 taels per set, which would have been infuriating.

After Jiang Ling finished speaking, he ignored the broker and gave him enough time to think about it.

The agent thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, the lowest price is 5,800 per set. To be honest, this is the lowest price the owner has offered."

This is the extent of my authority."

"Deal! Let's go back and sign the contract and go through the formalities!" Although each set cost three hundred taels more, it was within his acceptable range, so he didn't mind.

The broker was very happy to see such a straightforward customer. After finishing the job today, he could get the commission directly.

So they took a carriage back to the brokerage firm, quickly signed the contract and paid the money, and then the broker took them to the yamen.

Jiang Ling gave the two houses to his two children, one for each of them.

I paid some handling fees and it was done smoothly.

In any era, money is about relationships.

The two houses they had now were enough for their group to live in, so Jiang Ling didn't look at any more.

He also asked his agent to find some people to help him with the cleaning, gave them a tip of 100 taels, and let them arrange it themselves.

The broker had just mentioned a considerable commission and had a very good impression of Jiang Ling, a big client. Now that he had another tip, he must take care of it.

"Don't worry, guest, leave it to me. You can just move in tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you!"

After finishing the work, snowflakes suddenly began to fall from the sky.

Jiang Ling looked outside in surprise, it was so beautiful!

Snowflakes fluttered down like light catkins, and the sky and the earth were covered with silver, as if covered by a thin layer of white gauze.

The red lanterns under the eaves of the houses on the street appear even warmer against the backdrop of the white snow.

The carriage moved slowly all the way, and when it returned to the inn, the road and the roofs of the carriages were already covered in white.

An Yi carried Jiang Hao and the little guy down from the carriage one by one and put them on the ground.

The two children ran towards the inner yard, especially the little one, whose short legs ran very fast. People were worried that he might fall, especially since it was snowing.

"Doudou, run slower! Be careful on the slippery road."

Jiang Ling roared from behind, which really made him worry. But Jiang Hao was still obedient and followed him sensibly. This child was so sensible that it made people feel distressed.

Under the eaves in the inner courtyard, a group of people were watching the snowfall seriously. It was also the first time for them to watch the snow quietly.

It has never snowed in Xiling Kingdom, not to mention that they are at the border, where there is only drought and no snow.

Therefore, Yue Qianli and his group were still very curious.

"Hahaha, are you guys sitting in a row eating fruit? Are you kids?"

Jiang Ling couldn't help laughing when he saw this picture. It felt a bit like the kids in kindergarten being led by their teacher to sit in a row and eat fruit and watch the snow.

The kindergarten teacher was Yue Qianli. He was the only one leaning against the door, while everyone else was sitting in a row under the eaves.

Although I didn't hear them sitting in a row and eating fruit, I could still feel that the young master was saying that they were as childish as kids.
