Picked up a dark secret martial world

Chapter 9 News about the Warriors
After signing the lease contract, Hanze paid three months' rent.

Including the agency fee for Yaren Wang Fugui, the total is 14 taels and no deposit.

Wang Fugui beamed with joy. It seemed that he had made a lot of money from this order.

Han Ze doesn't care how much Wang Fugui earns. Anyway, he is very satisfied with this house.

Calculated according to the purchasing power of money in this world, the monthly rent is close to 5000 yuan.

However, in fact, based on his cost + processing fee of 7 yuan per gram of silver, the house only cost 5000 yuan in total, which is only 1700 yuan per month on average.

For 1700 yuan, renting such a large courtyard house in the center of the county is almost as cheap as grandma's house.

Then he asked Wang Fugui where to buy servants.
When Wang Fugui heard this, he immediately offered to help him handle all these matters.

"Master Han, maids, servants, cooks and concierges are all necessary, and a nursing home is also indispensable." Wang Fugui said with all his treasures.

Han Ze asked Wang Fugui to explain the difference on the grounds that he didn't understand it when he first came here.

Wang Fugui said: "There are two types of maids. One type is personal maids. They are beautiful and can be used as maids in the same room. They are usually responsible for your dressing, eating and sleeping, Mr. Han. If you perform well in the future, you can also accept her. As a concubine."

“The ordinary-looking personal maid assists the maid in charge of serving tea and water, making the bed, incense and deodorizing, fetching water and scrubbing, etc.”

"The other type is the rough maid, who is mainly responsible for cleaning the yard, caring for animals and plants, changing and washing common items, etc."

"The second thing is the young man..."

Wang Fugui explained to Han Ze the differences between various servants in detail.

After Han Ze listened patiently, he asked, "I want to ask you something."

Wang Fugui bowed and said, "Master Han, please tell me."

Han Ze: "How much do you know about those Jianghu people? Tell me. For example, how powerful are their martial arts? Also, do you know that there are foreign guns in this world?"

"Back to Mr. Han, I know about foreign guns. There are craftsmen in the capital city who specialize in making and selling those things, and there seems to be some in Fucheng as well. It is said that the thing is very powerful, and one shot can beat the heads of ordinary people to pieces."

"But it is very bulky and inconvenient to carry. The process of loading projectiles is also cumbersome. It is flashy and not as convenient as a knife or stick."

When Han Ze heard this, he nodded secretly in his heart. It was exactly what he thought.

Wang Fugui paused and said excitedly: "As for martial arts, they are amazing. For example, Master Huang, the instructor of the martial arts school I just passed by, can break a 20-centimeter-thick stone slab with one punch and easily carry a 500-pound stone lock. With one leap, you can climb a wall three feet high."

"Oh, is it true?"

Han Ze was surprised when he heard this.

Not to mention breaking stones as big as millstones and carrying 500 kilograms of stone locks, jumping ten meters high completely violated the laws of physics.

Can people really jump that high?
"Master Han, it's absolutely true! And there are many boxers in Longshan County who are better than Master Huang, such as Yuan Sihai, the current head of the Zhenwei Escort Bureau. His Yuan family gun is invincible in all Longxi." Wang Fugui said.

Han Ze asked: "Is light better than a gun? If he were to switch to a knife, would it still be that powerful?"

When Wang Fugui heard this, he was speechless for a moment, "Uh...it's hard to say this."

"It is rumored that Lu Xiaochao, the young master of the Lu family, is also very powerful with the Overlord Sword. He has inherited it from his father, but there is no comparison between the two."

After a pause, Wang Fugui continued: "However, young masters like Escort Yuan and Lu Xiaochao are not popular in the entire Dacang Kingdom. I heard that real masters can fly in the sky and escape the earth, and are omnipotent."

At the end of the sentence, Wang Fugui couldn't help but laugh, "Of course, this is what the villain has heard. I don't know exactly what it is."

"Oh, can ordinary people practice?"

"Of course! It's just that the cost of learning martial arts is very high, and ordinary people can't afford that price."

Han Zexin asked about the cost of martial arts training, then his eyes flickered and he asked: "I heard there is something strange here, do you know what's going on?"

"Uh..." Wang Fugui, who had a smile on his face, suddenly became hesitant after hearing this, "Well, Mr. Han, the government has strict orders that no one is allowed to talk about it in private, and I don't know much about it."

Han Ze couldn't help but feel nervous when he saw Wang Fugui's evasive words. It seemed that it was probably true.

Brows furrowed.

Martial arts masters can also use hot weapons to deal with it. How to deal with such an intangible and insubstantial thing?

I thought to myself and did not continue to ask, "Well, you can help me find a few maids, a cook and a concierge. As for the servants and guards, I won't need them for the time being."

Wang Fugui nodded immediately, "Okay, Mr. Han, do you want one from local or from outside?"

"What's the difference between the two?"

"The locals know the basics, so it is more reliable to use. The disadvantage is that the price is more expensive; the background is more complex in other places, such as the maid in Gaoqiu Country. There is a great famine in the west. Now outside the city, even the bark of the trees is not allowed to be eaten. As long as you take care of food and housing, There are as many as you want at the city gate, you can pick them as you like, I don’t need to tell you the shortcomings, Master Han also understands."

Han Ze didn't understand much, but he still said calmly: "Then let's go local."

...No one can live in the courtyard for the time being, because the house needs to be cleaned again and furniture needs to be added, which will take at least two days.

Had a "big meal" at a nearby restaurant.

In the elegant room, five dishes and one soup, including chicken, duck and fish, plus after-dinner fruits, the total is less than 200 yuan.

After eating, the restaurant waiter brought him good tea, and he threw two copper coins over. The waiter immediately knelt down and said gratefully: "Thank you for the reward..."

The waiter didn't recognize that the young man in front of him, dressed like a dog, enjoying tea leisurely, was the "Hanako" he kicked out yesterday.

Han Ze's mentality has completely changed now. Looking at the waiter's low-brow and bent-over attitude, he not only does not feel any sense of humiliation, but also feels a sense of joy after revenge.

It's so cool to have money.

After experiencing the joy of having money, Han Ze became more and more eager to make money.

He really needs money now.

As Wang Fugui said, local maids are really expensive. If you buy them out at once, even a rough servant will cost 30 taels of silver each.

As for personal maids, they are also divided into levels, ranging from 30 taels of silver to as much as 50 taels per person.

There are also concierges and cooks, etc., which are not much cheaper.

As for hiring, there is no need to consider this.

There are so many secrets in him, and it is impossible to let someone who cannot control him get close to him.

There is also learning martial arts.

Any martial artist is always high and low, and he is very insecure.

Maybe he would sleep until midnight, and a green forest hero would come in and cut off his head, robbing the rich and giving to the poor.

As for buying a pistol for self-defense, I won’t consider it for now.

First of all, guns are not easy to buy, and secondly, even if you buy them, they are of little use.

Those who say that pistols are fast and accurate within ten meters have never fired a gun at all, let alone ten meters. People who have not received professional training are basically masters of human body tracing beyond three meters.

And 3 meters, with the skills of those martial arts masters, he has already died eighteen times.

After some careful consideration, Han Ze left the restaurant and returned to the inn.

"Master Han, you are back!" The waiter greeted him enthusiastically, "The hot tea has just been made for you and served. If you need anything, please feel free to ask me."

Han Ze said, "Come here, I have something to ask you."

When the waiter heard this, he quickly followed him upstairs.

There is a long viewing corridor upstairs, where you can see the commercial street along the lake not far away, and the scenery is pleasant.

The waiter came over and asked, "Master Han, tell me."

Han Ze stood by the railing, turned around and asked, "Do you know how much a pocket watch costs?"

Upon hearing this, the waiter in the shop quickly said: "Master Han, pocket watches are very expensive. The most common ones cost over a hundred taels of silver, which is equivalent to a good carriage. The high-end goods imported from Southeast Asia are said to cost 1000 taels a piece."

When it came to 100 taels, the waiter looked like he was dreaming. Even he couldn't believe the price.

Han Ze was secretly speechless after hearing this.

100 taels of silver, according to the purchasing power of money in this world, is 10 yuan, which is indeed very expensive.

As for 1000 taels, even if converted to the price of silver on Earth, it would cost hundreds of thousands...

"Okay, I see, you go first."

Han Ze sent the waiter away, returned to the room, and took out the package hidden under the bed.

There were 20 taels of silver inside, as well as pocket watches, gloves, magnifying glasses, wigs and other items.

As for the food he bought earlier, he had thrown it away on the way here.

Now that I have money and am in the city, I don’t have to worry about going hungry.

I opened the package and checked it. Nothing was missing. I took out all the things and put some broken silver on me in case of emergencies.

Then he left the inn.
