Chapter 90 Invitation from the Jun Family
Chapter 90 Jun Family Invitation
Early the next morning, Su Yue told the old marquis about her plan, and he nodded in agreement before she and Murong left the house.
As soon as they arrived at the lobby downstairs, a man who looked like a servant blocked their way: "Are they Mr. Murong and Miss Su?"
The two looked at each other and nodded.
The servant took out an invitation from his sleeve and handed it to Murong Li with both hands, saying: "Mr. Murong, my master invites you and Miss Su's family to be guests at my house. I hope that Mr. Murong and Miss Su's family must come."
"Who is your master?" Murong Li took the invitation.
Yesterday, he asked the secret guard to find out all the wealthy families and officials in Northwest City. He also looked at them and got a general understanding of Northwest City.
He couldn't think of any that he knew.
The servant said respectfully: "The head of the family is the Jun family in the northwest city."
Master, please tell me that as long as you say it is the Jun family, Master Murong will definitely understand.
Sure enough, after the servant said that, Murong Li knew which house it was. He said: "I know, I will pay a visit another day. You can go back first. We have some things to do today, so we will visit tomorrow."
The Jun family is one of the five major families in the northwest city. The old man of the Jun family is very powerful. He is the Taifu of the current dynasty, that is, the emperor's teacher, the emperor's master.
Taifu Jun's hometown is in the northwest city, so he knew he was coming.
Murong Li didn't know how the Jun family could invite a demoted prince like him.
However, you can go and see. Mr. Jun is actually an upright person, and no matter what the Jun family's intentions are, this trip is necessary to avoid the teacher who knows about it and says he doesn't respect him from finding trouble for him.
When the servant heard that the task was completed, he nodded and hurriedly retreated.
"Are you going?" Su Yue asked Murong You.
Murong Li nodded: "Let's go and visit tomorrow. The Jun family is one of the aristocratic families in the northwest city. Mr. Jun is the Taifu of the current dynasty. He is a fairly upright person, but the people he taught are not very good. The Jun family sent us to invite him.
Posted, of course I have to pay a visit."
"oh."
Hearing what Murong Li said, Su Yue also knew Taifu Jun from the memory of the original owner, but she didn't expect that his hometown was in such a troubled place as Northwest County.
Su Yue said again: "Then the Jun family is in this northwest county. Why didn't you write to Mr. Jun in advance to explain the situation and ask the emperor to come to provide relief earlier? It's already this time and there is no movement from the court."
After all, it is the hometown of the emperor's teacher. The emperor should take action for the teacher's sake.
"With Northwest County in the hands of that person, no information will be sent out, and it will be detained when it arrives in Xichuan County."
Murong Li gently knocked on Su Yue's head. Why was she so stupid this time?
"oh."
Su Yue rubbed her head. She always thinks about things according to her own way. This is ancient times, transportation is underdeveloped, and people deliver letters. It is normal for someone to send a letter and something will happen.
There are advantages to underdeveloped information. For example, if the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, if they do things here in the future, as long as they are well controlled, Murong Li will not know whether he is the king or the emperor here.
They can also live a carefree life.
The two of them left the inn and came to the largest tooth shop in the northwest city.
The business of the tooth shop has been bleak in the past six months. There is only one shopkeeper sitting in the tooth shop, sighing, with a gloomy look on his face. If this continues, he will have to close his shop.
When he saw the two people coming, the shopkeeper was quite surprised. Someone actually came to the door today.
There were two handsome men and beauties, and the shopkeeper couldn't take his eyes away from them.
"Are the two guests buying a house or a shop?"
The shopkeeper came to his senses, welcomed the two of them in with a smile, made them sit down, and served them tea.
Su Yue asked directly: "What houses are available for sale in Northwest City? Can the shopkeeper tell me?"
"Does this lady want to buy a house?" The shopkeeper was surprised. At this time, almost everyone in the northwest city had left to buy a house, and only those who came to sell the house were here.
Su Yue nodded.
The shopkeeper said with a smile: "You two gentlemen have gone to the right place. The shop is the largest dental shop in the northwest city. All the good houses and shops are sold in our dental shop. What kind of house does the lady need? As soon as you enter
The one who enters the hospital? The one who enters the hospital twice? Or the one who enters the hospital three times?"
The shopkeeper boasted a bit before asking.
Su Yue pursed her lips and smiled: "Are there any houses in the third, fourth, and fifth houses?"
"Yes, yes, there must be some. Many of them are in Dongcheng District. The rich families who used to live there have now moved away. The houses left behind are quite nice. Why don't you two guests go and see them first?
look?"
Su Yue shook her head: "You don't have to look at it, it's nothing to see. Just tell me the price?"
The houses here are all the same, and they really don't have much to see. As long as the price is right, buy them. If they don't look good, you can decorate them yourself. She doesn't lack money.
She also believed that the shopkeeper would not ask for an exorbitant price. Who would ask for it if the price was too high? There was no such thing as being taken advantage of now.
The shopkeeper didn't expect Su Yue to be so straightforward, which made him a little impressed by Su Yue. He took out a book and flipped through it and said: "There are three buildings with five courtyards in Dongcheng District, and the prices are around 5,000 taels. Five buildings
The price for a house with four courtyards is around 4,000 taels, the price for six buildings with three courtyards is around 3,000 taels, and there are also two buildings with two courtyards, which one do you want, miss?"
Su Yue heard that the price was indeed very cheap. The five-storey yard only cost about 5,000 taels. You couldn't even buy it in the first yard in the capital.
She thought for a moment and said, "I'll buy all the five-entry, four-entry, and three-entry ones. The shopkeeper will calculate the amount of money. I can hand over the money now to complete the transfer."
"Okay, okay, I'll go through the procedures for you right now."
The shopkeeper beamed, he was such a big benefactor, he didn't even negotiate the price, and he bought so much in one go.
But this lady is really discerning. If you buy now, many people will definitely come back after the drought. Not only will the house price double, but it will still be one-third higher. If you sell it, then
It's a huge profit.
"Oh, by the way, are there any shops and shops for sale?" Su Yue thought that she had bought all the houses, so she took advantage of the current price to buy more shops and shops.
The shopkeeper looked up at her and felt a little doubt in his heart. They were not professional in selling and buying, and they wanted to buy a Zhuangzi shop.
However, as long as you give him money to buy it, who cares, if he can't sell it if it's in his hands, he'll have a headache.
The shopkeeper nodded and said: "Of course there are, there are many more. There is a drought this year and there are many people selling Zhuangzi. Do you really want to sell it? You can't grow Zhuangzi now. You will definitely lose money if you buy it. Miss, you have to think clearly.
Once the sale is successful, I will not be responsible."
The shopkeeper kindly reminds me because she wants to buy so many houses.
If you buy Zhuangzi now, you still have to pay the annual taxes. The government will not care if you are in a drought year.
