Fortunate Young Gentleman

Gardens or mansions belonging to the treasury can be bought and sold by the household department unless otherwise specified above.

After all, if these things are idle, they are just idle. It is better to exchange them for silver and use them to do more things.

There are no special instructions on the Tang family's house, which means that the Household Department can handle it.

"Since Mr. Tang wants it, I will sell it to you at the lowest price..." Qian Shuo, the Minister of Household Affairs, thought for a moment, looked at him and asked, "What do Mr. Tang think of fifty thousand taels?"

The old residence of the Tang family cannot be called a house, but a mansion. For such a mansion, there are people willing to buy it for a hundred thousand taels. Qian Shuo did this very well. Tangning nodded and said, "That's it. "

The Ministry of Revenue collected the banknote and handed the deed of the Tang family's old house to Tang Ning. Qian Shuo watched him leave before sighing leisurely.

The reason why the Tang family's old house was confiscated was because it was originally a reward from the imperial court. The Tang family could buy it back again with money. At that time, he would randomly offer a price of one hundred thousand or two hundred thousand taels. For the sake of face, the Tang family also Will consider.

Now it only sells for less than 30% of the price he expected. This is a big loss for the Ministry of Revenue...

But if he had ten more courages, he would not dare to rip off someone. If he took an extra hundred thousand taels from him, the Ministry of Revenue might have to pay a million taels tomorrow, and the gains outweighed the losses...

Less than an hour after Tang Ning left the household department, another officer reported that Tang Qi, the former prince of the country, was visiting.

Although Tang Qi was already a commoner, Prince Duan was at the height of his power in the court, and the Tang family might not be able to turn around in the future. Out of caution, Qian Shuo still received him in person.

Tang Qi didn't talk nonsense and said straight to the point: "The Tang family wants to buy back the old house. Qian Shangshu should set a price."

Qian Shuo was stunned, and then said: "I'm afraid this won't work."

"Why?" Tang Qi frowned and said, "No matter how much Qian Shangshu bids, the Tang family will redeem the old house..."

"It's not about money." Qian Shuo shook his head and said, "It's just that you're a step late. The old Tang Mansion has been bought."

Tang Qi was furious when he heard this and asked, "Who is it?"

Qian Shuodao: "An hour ago, Marquis Dingguo just took the house deed from the Ministry of Household Affairs."

"Him?" Tang Qi was shocked and asked, "What does he want from the Tang family's old house?"

Qian Shuo looked at him and said: "Marquis Dingguo said he wanted to raise pigs, but I don't know what he will raise specifically..."

"Raise, raise pigs..." Tang Qi opened his mouth wide, his eyes widened, and his face turned the color of pig liver.

…

Inside the Tang Mansion, Tang Shui looked at Tang Ning and wondered: "Are you really planning to raise pigs in the Tang Family?"

Tang Ning nodded and said, "The place is big enough. I'm going to destroy the Tang Mansion and rebuild it. I'll build the largest pigsty in the capital. Do you think it's feasible?"

"no!"

Even more excited than Tang Shui was Princess Anyang. The old residence of the Tang family was located in an area where the powerful people of the capital gathered. Her princess mansion was not far from the Tang family. If the Tang family became a pigsty, what would happen around her princess mansion in the future? Don't you want it to stink to the sky?

Tangning glanced at her and asked, "What does this have to do with the princess?"

Princess Anyang said: "The Tang Mansion is surrounded by powerful people. If you let those powerful officials live next to dirty and smelly fat pigs, aren't you afraid of offending them all?"

Tangning said indifferently: "Have I offended many powerful officials?"

The princess of Anyang was speechless for a moment. In the past few years, he had offended many powerful officials. But in the end, he himself was an extremely popular minister, beneath one person and above ten thousand people. The officials he offended were dismissed from their posts, and their honors were dismissed. Forget it, who else dares to offend him without opening his eyes?

Princess Anyang's chest heaved with anger, and she gritted her teeth and said: "Anyway, if you dare to turn the Tang family into a pigsty, I will not let you go!"

After Princess Anyang finished speaking, she angrily walked to the pavilion on the side. Tang Shui looked at her and said in surprise: "Didn't you tell me that if it were you, you would also raise pigs in the old house of Tang Mansion?"

She looked at Princess Anyang, then looked back at Tangning, and said, "You guys really have a good understanding..."

"Bah!" Princess Anyang, who has always presented herself as a lady, said angrily: "Who has a connection with him? If it were me, I would not raise pigs even if I let a beggar live there!"

…

Raising pigs in the Tang family's old house was just a casual excuse given by Tang Ning to the Ministry of Revenue. He was not an unqualified person. If pigs were raised there, the air would be noisy and smelly. How could other people live?

He handed the key to the Tang family to Liu Laoer and said: "Isn't the Beggars' Clan not enough space? This is the key to the Tang family's old house. You can turn it into a stronghold of the Beggars' Clan. There are two courtyards inside." Keep it and have it cleaned regularly, and you can use the rest as you wish.”

The location of the Tang family's old residence is very good. Most of the wealthy families in Beijing are there. If some members of the Beggar Clan are stationed there, it will be more convenient and easier to obtain information.

Liu Laoer bowed and said: "Thank you, Gang Leader..."

After settling this matter, Tang Ning planned to teach Zhao Yuan how to make soup.

This is a new soup. It is a mutton soup recipe that Tang Ning learned on the grassland. After he came back, he improved it a little. It uses mutton and supplements traditional Chinese medicine. It can strengthen the glands and replenish qi, warm and nourish kidney yang, and is good for treating fatigue, weight loss, and glutinous rice. It has very good effects and is just right for Chen Huang.

Zhao Yuan put the ingredients into the casserole and asked, "Sir, how long does this soup need to simmer?"

Tangning said, "About five hours."

Zhao Yuan had a look of defeat on his face and said, "Ah, it's been so long..."

Tangning glanced at him and asked, "What, are you in a hurry?"

Zhao Yuan is now two times thinner than before because of the torture by Zhang Daxueshi. He studies for five hours every day and can only rest for one day every ten days. Tang Ning can understand him and said, "You are not needed here. Go and have fun. Remember to stew for five hours next time..."

"It's not urgent..." Zhao Yuan scratched his head and said, "Sister Wang asked me to go to their house for dinner in the afternoon, and sister Zhang also asked me to go to their house for dinner. Whose house should I go to?"

Tang Ning glanced at him and asked, "Do you often go to Wang's and Zhang's houses for dinner?"

Zhao Yuan nodded and said, "Aunt Wang Aunt Zhang is very kind to me and often invites me to their house for dinner..."

Prime Minister Wang and Grand Secretary Zhang were arguing fiercely in the court and were irreconcilable. However, they were surprisingly consistent in their attitude towards Zhao Yuan. Tang Ning cursed him as an old fox in his heart and said, "It's only morning now. You can go to Wang's house in the morning and Zhang's house in the afternoon. Isn't that enough?"

Zhao Yuan touched his head embarrassedly and said, "I have to go to Bai's house in the morning..."

...

Tang Ning was very pleased that Zhao Yuan was also making every effort to deal with his own future and destiny.

This was worthy of the people behind him who planned and laid out for him.

Zhao Yuan left without eating breakfast, and by the afternoon, the mutton soup was already cooked.

Tang Shui and Princess Anyang were invited to dinner by Xiaoyi. During the meal, Princess Anyang looked at Tang Ning with some concern and asked, "You are not really planning to raise pigs in the Tang family, are you?"

"No." Tang Ning shook his head and said, "There are still many homeless beggars in the capital. I plan to renovate the Tang family and provide them with a shelter..."

Princess Anyang looked at him blankly and said, "You..."

Tang Ning asked, "What's wrong? Isn't this okay?"

"Okay! You are really kind..." Princess Anyang gritted her teeth and nodded heavily, cursing inwardly that this guy was just a worm in her stomach. She didn't dare to look at Tang Shui, and lowered her head to drink soup to cover up her embarrassment.

Tang Ning glanced at her, then looked at Zhong Yi, Su Ru and the others, and said, "Drink more soup. This is what King Run cooked. It took more than five hours..."

Zhong Yi picked up the spoon and asked, "What kind of soup is this?"

Tang Ning said, "Secret mutton soup. Drinking it can strengthen the glands and replenish qi, warm and nourish the kidney yang, and treat asthenia and weight loss. If you can't drink the juice, you should drink more..."

Princess Anyang's hand trembled, and the spoon in her hand fell into the bowl. The soup in the bowl was empty.
