Chapter 69 The Haunted House

Hiring a carriage is indeed a wise move. I used to think that going out on a horse was more chic, but after I really started to experience it, I realized that traveling on a horse is a pain.

Maybe it's because we're close to the capital, there are fewer bandits, and we didn't meet any bandits along the way, maybe it has something to do with the vicious look of the man driving the car. honest man.

The journey in the next few days was unexpectedly smooth, and it took just over five days to arrive in the capital, the largest city in the world today, and the only big city with a population of more than one million.The population of more than one million in ancient times is completely different from the current population of more than one million. At that time, there were no high-rise buildings, and the big families still had three entrances and three retreats. Therefore, the area of ​​the capital city with a population of one million is very large. huge.

The streets are crowded with people, at least for Jin Lian who has never seen anything in the world, it is unimaginable that there will be so many people, the spacious street can not be seen at a glance, restaurants and shops on both sides of the street One by one, the number is too high to be counted. Jin Lian, who was born in a small county and has never seen the big world, suddenly saw this kind of scene. Of course, she was curious, so she opened the curtain of the carriage and looked around, unable to stop at all. .

……

Stopped in front of a restaurant and paid twice as much to the coachman as a reward. This guy is really fast, and he has worked hard for him these days. Watching the coachman leave with gratitude, Just entered the restaurant.

"Little brother, just serve good wine and good food!" After entering the restaurant, Chen Jialuo went directly to the box upstairs to greet Xiaoer to serve food. It's only two points more, but it's completely worth the three-day salary of the younger brother.

"Okay, thank you for the reward, my lord!" After getting the reward, hurry up and pass on the food. This kind of guests is the best way to serve good wine and good food, that is, just serve expensive and delicious food, and they are not short of money.

"Jin Lian, you are tired too. Go sit down and have a cup of tea and rest. I really don't need someone to wait on you." As soon as Chen Jialuo sat down, Jin Lian naturally stood behind him and massaged his shoulders. I really like a little girl to give me a pinch, but I'm still not used to it.

"...Jinlian is not tired, and it is right to serve you." Hearing Chen Jialuo's words, he paused for a moment, but carefully looked at Chen Jialuo's expression, he seemed to be enjoying himself, not disgusted. Only then did she relax and continue the massage. She finally understood that the young master was not talking ironically because he was dissatisfied with his service, but was just saying something polite.

Since classmate Jinlian insisted on getting a massage, Chen Jialuo certainly didn't need to postpone it too much. Miss Jinlian's massage techniques are indeed very good, and she must have been specially trained before.

The preparation of the hotel's dishes is quite fast. It didn't take long. A table of more than a dozen dishes was prepared, and a jar of fine wine was delivered. Although the wine and food are good, the hotel owner still roughly prepared for the customers. I did some calculations.

So it only cost more than twenty taels of silver. Of course, this price is actually very expensive for ordinary people. Twenty taels of silver is almost the living expenses of a family of three for a year.

……

"Second Brother, do you know if there are any houses for sale nearby? A larger independent courtyard is the best!"

"Young Master, if you want to find a house, you should ask the right person. The shopkeeper of our house has a relative who has a house for sale. It's a good house. It's a big house with three entrances and three exits, and the price is not expensive... "

"Well, the price is not a problem. Go and find your shopkeeper, and I'll talk to him!" If it was just one person, Chen Jialuo would have gone to the palace directly to see the emperor to see the situation, but since there is an oil bottle, of course He arranged for her to say, as for buying a house, he lives by himself now, so let it be a congratulatory gift to Wu Song and Jin Lian in the future!
Hearing that someone wanted to buy the house that hadn't been sold for a long time, the boss hurried over. Chen Jialuo just got a general understanding of the location and size of the house, so he asked his relatives to bring the house deed to sign the contract. This surprised the boss quite a bit, he thought Chen Jialuo was a liar, there was no such thing as buying a house, he bought it directly before seeing the house, but when he received the deposit of ten taels of gold, he immediately Dispelling doubts, there is no possibility for scammers to spend such capital.

He made it clear that the man in front of him must be a wealthy son, and he must have bought the house to support the little lover around him.

As the owner of the restaurant, he still has a vicious vision. He immediately saw that Jin Lian was disguised as a man, and instantly saw that Jin Lian was still a little beauty. At least from his eyes, Jin Lian was a very charming little beauty!
Chen Jialuo's buying a house was really too child's play. He didn't even look at the house, so he signed the house transfer contract with the boss's relative.In fact, Chen Jialuo was not afraid of being cheated at all. Although he didn't care about money, if anyone really dared to cheat him, he would have to find someone to settle the score at night, and he hadn't made a move for a long time.

The heart that is unwilling to be ordinary and restless has a tendency to move around. Chen Jialuo is not sure if there is something wrong with her mentality. It seems that she has become very unwilling to be ordinary. Maybe this is her nature. No chance.But generally speaking, my nature is still very peace-loving. Otherwise, I would have made troubles in this world and directly rebelled. Why would I want to go to Song Huizong for a chance, or to help him.

……

"My lord, where are we going now?" Jin Lian was really afraid that she would get lost. There were too many people coming and going in the capital, so she tightly grasped Chen Jialuo's arm and walked on the street. After a long time, she finally could bear it. Can't stop asking.

"Well, didn't you buy a house earlier, of course I'm going to see that house now!"

"Young master, you are not afraid of being cheated when you buy a house like this. It is 1000 taels of gold, and it would be more than [-] taels of copper coins!"

"Hehe, your son is very capable, who dares to lie to me, see if I don't deal with him!"

"My lord, can I ask you something?"

"whats the matter?"

"Where is the son's house!" Jin Lian had been wondering about this matter for too long, and never found a chance to ask.

"Hehe, I'm from the capital now!"

"Oh, where was that young master from before?"

"Overseas... It's over here, let's go see how our new house is!" Chen Jialuo didn't explain too much, and just found a reason.

This is a big house with a large area. It is definitely worth the money to buy such a house. Of course, this is for Chen Jialuo, and others don't think so.

It has been a long time since the owner moved out, but the house is well maintained and the house is cleaned. You can buy some furniture and live there.Taking out the certificate given by the old homeowner, the uncle who guarded the house picked up his things and went back in minutes.

He didn't dare to say anything more, but he hoped that nothing would happen to this young master. When he was guarding the house, he didn't dare to go into the house every time he went to sleep. Wrapped up with clean things, I heard that those things can absorb people's energy, and if it takes longer, it will really kill people!
"My lord, have you noticed that the old man just now had weird eyes? There won't be any problems with this house!"

"Hehe, why is there a problem? I really didn't expect the house to be better than expected. The 1000 taels of gold are worth it. Let's go and choose a room. You can choose which one you want to live in!" Chen said. Jialuo really didn't see any problem with this house, it was really good, there was a small garden, a fish pond, and even a fake mangosteen forest, it was like a small garden, but I didn't see a single fish in the fish pond, it was It was a bit of a surprise, maybe the owner moved the fish away and the fish was taken away.

More than a dozen rooms, living room, kitchen and study are all available, and the construction is quite elegant, which is really good!It stands to reason that in the Northern Song Dynasty, which was famous for its high housing prices, this kind of luxury house would cost [-] to [-] guan to get it. Maybe there is something mysterious about it, but Chen Jialuo is looking forward to this kind of house even more. .
