Chapter 927
Renting a house in Shangjing is not an easy task. If you want a house in a better location, you can get it at a higher price. A house with a lower price is in a bad location.

Either the three religions and nine streams gathered together, or it was close to Huajie and Liuxiang.

No matter which one it is, it is not a good place for Shen Minqing.

So I can only bite the bullet and find a house in a better location.

"I calculated that we only have less than 500 taels of silver on hand. It may be considered a big sum over there, enough to support us for a while, but here in the capital it is not enough for us to spend a few times. Look at the previous We spent almost ten taels just by staying in the inn for a few days."

In the past, she didn't have to worry about these mundane things at all, but now she had to start carefully calculating these things in order to survive.

"Did you make an appointment to see the house today?"

Danyu was very panicked when she heard the calculations made by her own lady.

This money sounds like a lot of money, but it is really frustrating to have nothing to spend but nothing to get out.

"We made an appointment to see the house today. Miss, you will like the house, but the price is a bit expensive, it costs 40 taels of silver a year.

"40 taels..."

Shen Minqing calculated the accounts again in his mind. Food, clothing, housing and transportation alone cost 40 taels of silver a year, not to mention other things.

"Going to see the house first, you have to settle the residence first, and the rest can only be taken one step at a time."

Half an hour later, the master and servant left the inn and went to the previously arranged house to have a look.

The location of that house is average, but ordinary people live around it. The environment is simple, and life in the surrounding area is relatively convenient. The price of 40 taels is not expensive in Shangjing City.

When the two of them got there, the middle-aged man was already waiting there.

Seeing Dan Yu, the man came up to him with a smile, "Girl, you're here, what's wrong? Your uncle isn't here?"

When I visited the house yesterday, Danyu followed what her young lady said, saying that she lived with her uncle. Now that she only saw her and her young lady coming over, she was naturally a little curious.

Danyu didn't panic, "My uncle has to do something, and he doesn't have time right now."

The middle-aged man had no doubts, "Anyone who is willing to work is a good uncle, please come in. Our house is really rare. The previous owner went to Jiangnan. When he left, he asked us to rent the house to a good family. We can't let it go to waste. I see that Madam is a very particular person, so I can rest assured that I will rent this house to you."

The middleman was talking as he walked inside, and Shen Minqing was listening and looking at the situation of the house.

It is indeed as Danyu said, she will like this house. The house is not big, and there are only two entrances. The yard is also small, but the layout is transparent. There is also a big tree in the yard, where you can sit in the summer. It must be wonderful to enjoy the shade under the trees.

The conditions in the wing are pretty good. Although I still need to buy some things myself, they are only small items and shouldn't cost much money.

"I am very satisfied with this house. I can sign a contract."

After reading it, Shen Minqing didn't hesitate too much and gave the right answer directly.

The middle-aged man didn't expect that a woman could be so straightforward in her work. He was slightly stunned when he heard Shen Minqing say this.

"You don't need to discuss dismounting with your uncle?"

Although he can make a fortune by renting out the house, he is also a person who is afraid of trouble. If he is anxious to sign a contract with this lady now, when their uncle comes and is not satisfied, it will be troublesome to talk about it. Yes, so he asked more questions.

The uncle himself was made up by Shen Minqing, and he was a non-existent person. When the stranger asked about it, he naturally had a better answer.

"He listens to me, don't worry, just make a contract."

With these words, the middle-aged man felt really relieved, "Then please move."

The master and servant went with the middleman to sign the contract.This scene happened to be seen by Cang Muchen who was passing by. Since the last time we said goodbye, this figure still occasionally appears in his mind, and it has not diminished over time.

He naturally understood why, and he knew he was interested in her from the beginning.

It's just that he thought it would change as time went by, so he never sent anyone to find out about her.

This turned out not to be the case.

nowadays……

"Qingfeng, do you think it's easy to meet someone in this huge capital city?"

Qingfeng answered without thinking, "It must be the same as what the princess said. It's a special fate. How big is the capital here, how could we meet so easily."

After hearing this, Cang Muchen nodded in agreement, "I think so too."

After saying that, he stared at Shen Minqing and said, "Follow me and see what they are doing."

Following his master's gaze, Qingfeng realized that it was the master and servant pair again!
Thinking back to what he said before, he didn't know whether he was right or wrong.

Their father is already eighteen years old, and at this age and status, logically, he should have a prince concubine by his side, but the prince has no idea at all.

Fortunately, the princess and the prince didn't care at all and never urged them.

Now looking at my father's appearance, could it be that he has fallen in love with the Crown Princess?
"Grandpa, you..."

Cang Muchen glanced over, "Itchy skin?"

Qingfeng shut up immediately and followed him numbly.

The carriage stopped on the street, attracting attention from people coming and going, but Cang Muchen had long been accustomed to this, sitting leisurely in the carriage drinking tea.

Qingfeng and Shen Minqing were considered acquaintances, so it was inconvenient for him to show up at this time. He only found the previous partner after they left.

A piece of silver was placed on the table, "Why did the pair of master and servant come here just now?"

Zhongren can be considered a businessman, and his eyes naturally lit up when he saw the silver. But after hearing Qingfeng's words, he could only stop thinking about it.

"Master, there are rules in the business. You know it. You can't talk about it."

Qingfeng was dressed in extraordinary clothes and had a sword. Everyone who went to the capital knew that those who could walk around in the city with a sword were of high status, and were not comparable to ordinary people like them.

They know how to wink the most, so it is quite natural for them to be low-key at this time.

Qingfeng would not be confused by what he said. He took out another piece of silver from his body without changing his expression, "Can you tell me now?"

The middle man's eyes even shone with light.

Staring at the two pieces of silver, he even swallowed.

But in the end, he held it back, "Master, it's really not about money..."

Qingfeng nodded clearly, "Understood."

Suddenly, a cold light flashed, and the scabbard lowered to reveal the sword body with a cold light, "What now?"
