Chapter 170 Buying a House
There was no trouble on the way to Fucheng, and we arrived in Fucheng safely.

With a certificate issued by the government, they do not need to pay the city entry fee when entering the city. Otherwise, according to regulations, pedestrians are required to pay three cash per person, and those carrying goods are charged a certain fee based on the amount of goods. The amount is not large, usually between ten and fifty cash. between.

In ancient times, scholars, officers and soldiers were always relatively tolerant, but sometimes they had to pick people. Those who were poorly dressed would make things difficult for them when they entered the city.

Gu Yanbei's family had two carriages. The people guarding the city gate were well-informed and clearly distinguished who could make things difficult and who could not.

The group of them entered Fucheng very easily.

Gu Yanbei and the others came earlier, but in their eyes they were already used to it. This kind of thing happens every year.

In order to get good grades in the exam, many students will come here in advance to prepare early.

As long as the family has some conditions, they will come here in advance. The academies in Fucheng are much better than those in the county, and the resources are rich. After a while, there will only be more people coming, and the purpose of studying is to get ahead!
The carriage drove smoothly into Lingzhou City, which was worthy of being a capital city. The shops on both sides were crowded with people, and the shouts of hawkers kept coming and going, creating a prosperous scene.

They quickly found an inn and settled down, knowing that from now on they would devote themselves to finding a house.

Gu Yanbei had friends in Fucheng, so he didn't inform them in advance when he came this time, and he didn't want to trouble others.

The next day, after the whole family had eaten and drank enough, they found a dental shop that looked quite decent.

"Mr. Gu, you are polite. According to your request, I have chosen five houses. The conditions of these five houses are as follows~~~" Ya Ren is a down-to-earth person and did not exchange too many greetings. He introduced them according to their request. After checking the house listings, I introduced the situation of each house thoroughly.

Jian Qingyu sat aside drinking tea and eating snacks and listened to their conversation.

Two of these five houses are further away from the Academy and the Gongyuan. The area of ​​the houses is relatively moderate, neither very small nor very large.

The other three are relatively close. The houses in two are a bit small and not very expensive. The other one is quite large. There is a street from the back door. It is very convenient if you want to do business, but the price is a bit expensive. , the owner of the house is not willing to lower the price at all.

In the matter of buying a house, although it was Gu Yanbei who negotiated, it was Jian Qingyu who actually made the decision. In his opinion, the most important thing when buying a house is to be satisfied and happy.

Jian Qingyu was a little confused after listening to Yaren's introduction, not to mention that they only heard what he said, and their impressions of the house were relatively one-sided. They could only make a decision after going to the site and seeing it.

"Do you think this is okay? Can you take us to see these houses? We don't understand it just from what you said. We can only make a decision after seeing the houses with our own eyes." Since you want to buy a house, you must buy a better one. They are going to live here for a while, so they can't make a hasty decision.

"Of course, buying a house is not a trivial matter. Naturally, you need to take a closer look and compare. I wonder if Madam Gu has time now?"

"Yes, yes." They came out today just to buy a house, so they had plenty of time.

The family is going to buy a house, and the children are all excited. They have been chattering all morning. If it were not for Jian Qingyu's threat, they would definitely make some remarks at this moment.

Now that they could go see the house, they were even more excited and couldn't wait.

Gu Yanbei was even more eager to settle down on the house as soon as possible so that the annoying boys could be separated. He was the most frustrated on the way to Fucheng. He had no chance to get close to his wife. He despised these boys. Yes.

Jian Qingyu didn't notice the 'deepness' in Gu Yanbei's eyes as he explained some words to the children.Yaren has been in contact with many people and is also a good person. Upon seeing this, he quickly led the whole family to see the house.

They first looked at the two sets that were slightly farther away, and finally the ones that were relatively close.

After this round, he was already hungry, so Jian Qingyu directly proposed to go to the last, most expensive house after dinner.

The biggest thing in the world is eating. Only when you are full can you have the strength to continue looking at the house.

Yaren refused at first, thinking that after they had finished eating, they could just go to Yahang to find him. However, the other party was too enthusiastic and did not give him a chance to refuse. He took him to the restaurant and ate together. After they were full and drunk, they went to see the most expensive house.

This house is closest to the academy and Gongyuan. It is indeed quite large, but the price is half of the market price.

She has money in her hands, which is considered abundant. She is not taken advantage of.

"Ms. Gu, I won't go into details about the small benefits of this house. You've seen it. The price is really not cheap, and the owner of the house is unwilling to lower the price. That's why we haven't reached an agreement." The Yaren saw Jian Qingyu. I was a little moved, so I took the initiative to speak first.

"The price is indeed a bit high. Who owns the large vegetable garden next to it?" She had already figured out the situation of the house, and she really liked it, but the price was really expensive. But when she came in just now, she I saw a deserted garden on the right that was surrounded by a fence. It was quite a large area and I didn’t know whose family it belonged to.

"That vegetable garden also belongs to the owner of the house." Yaren knew the situation here very well and answered immediately when Mrs. Gu asked.

Jian Qingyu was delighted when she heard this. If the other party was willing to give her the vegetable garden, she could consider buying the house so that she could grow vegetables and be self-sufficient.

"See if you can discuss it with the owner of the house. If he is willing to include the vegetable garden in the house and sell it to me, I can accept the price."

Hearing this, Yaren glanced at Jian Qingyu and said, "Please wait a moment, and I will ask the owner of the house what he wants."

From Yaren's point of view, this was feasible. The vegetable garden was just left there and wasted, with no use at all.

The owner of the house was probably not very far away. Yaren came back soon and brought good news to Jian Qingyu.

"Ms. Gu, I have conveyed your wishes to the owner of the house. If you can pay one thousand, six hundred taels of silver in one lump sum, the house and the vegetable garden will be yours." The house will be sold, but the vegetable garden will be kept. What can be done, it is already deserted and has no meaning to the owner of the house.

"Okay, let's make the deal." Jian Qingyu made the final decision directly. She was satisfied with this house. Now that it has a vegetable garden, she definitely doesn't want to miss it. Sixteen hundred dollars is not very expensive.

The main reason is that this house is relatively well-built, has a good location, and the yard and house are relatively clean. They can move in after a simple cleaning.

After reaching a deal, the buyer and seller exchanged land deeds at the county government office, and Jian Qingyu's name was written on the land deeds of Caiyuanzi.

Holding the freshly made house deed stamped with the official seal, Jian Qingyu felt extremely happy, and the smile on his lips never disappeared.
