Chapter 473 Room Slave II

The direct scholar of Baowen Pavilion, the court invited a doctor, and the Minister of Quan Taifu Temple, Lu Jiawen asked about the day when he left Huaizhou and arrived in Kaifeng Prefecture. It was exactly the fifth day of the second month of the first year of Jianzhong Jingguo, which was the day when Wanjia Real Estate Store sold its property.

Lu Jiawen's original official was the governor of Huaizhou. Huaizhou, also known as Henei County, belongs to Hebei West Road and is in the northwest of Kaifeng Prefecture. Therefore, Lu Jiawen and his group came from the northwest of Kaifeng Prefecture, and there were never too many chariots, horses and pedestrians in this direction.

But for some reason, when Lu Jiawen's convoy arrived at Xishuimen far away, he suddenly stopped and walked, as if he was speeding up.

Lu Jiawen, who was sitting in the shaking and moving forward slowly, finally got a little impatient, lifted the curtain and said, "Stop!"

The convoy suddenly stopped. With the help of his youngest son Lu Benzhi, Lu Jiawen got off the carriage and went to the official road.

After looking around, Lu Jiawen found that there were many carriages and horses queuing on the official road. The road that could have two carriages lined up at the same time was now half blocked, with only one lane left, so it became crowded.

However, Lu Jiawen was not in a hurry to get angry. Kaifeng Prefecture was the most congested person in the world! Traffic jams are normal. When he was an official in Huaizhou, he wanted to keep it in a mess!

Now there are finally some blockages, so enjoy it.

Moreover, there are so many carriages that block the road, which is definitely not ordinary people, either the priest or the first-class relatives. Lu Jia asked, it was not that he wanted to be the chief censor, but that he was too busy to manage the Taifu Temple Minister, so he was very busy and called the Kuaiqing. Why bother to be angry with those people?

Lu Jiawen's eyes looked along the two ends of the line-up of horse-drawn carriages and found that they seemed to extend from Xishuimen. They turned a corner at an intersection not far behind him, and passed a wooden bridge over the Jinshui River. Then they looked up to the other side of the Jinshui River, and the roof of an extremely tall building was the sight.

"What a tall house!" Lu Jiawen exclaimed.

He was implicated by his friend Zou Hao, whom he recommended a few years ago (Zou Hao was Youzhengyan at the time and opposed the deposed empress by Zhezong), and was demoted to the governor of Huaizhou. When he left, the Gonghe Building had not started construction.

"Father, that house is the Republic Building that my child mentioned to you. Now the senior officials who go out to the west of Beijing like to hold a farewell banquet in the Republic Building." Lu Jiawen's son Lu Benzhi also participated in the spring exam last year, but he did not have a high school. During those days in Kaifeng Prefecture, he also traveled to the Republic Building with others.

"So many cars and horses... I don't know which minister left the capital?" Lu Jiawen said to himself, "No, isn't it a national mourning now? Why are you still like this? Are you not afraid of impeachment by the Censor?"

"Father, why not let the child ask."

"Okay." Lu Jia asked, nodded, and saw his youngest son quickly walking towards a carriage that looked a little worn, chatted with an old man standing next to the carriage, and then turned back.

"Father, they are not here to see the officials off, but to buy a house."

"Buy a house?" Lu Jia was stunned, "Where is the house?"

"Of course it's a house in Kaifeng Prefecture City." Lu Benzhi said, "It's the largest commercial bank in Kaifeng Prefecture that is now selling real estate... the cheapest one is only 2,000 yuan!"

"2000 skewers?" Lu Jia asked, "It's a lie... Why doesn't Kaifeng Mansion care about it?"

"It's not a lie," Lu Benzhi said, "but a suite in the three-story building, which seems to be three or four rooms, built in Fengqiu Gate in the north of the city.

In addition... there are also small buildings built in the original Duting Post Office. They have a single family and a small courtyard. They only cost 20,000 yuan, and the Jinshi can be 10% off. Dad, why don’t we buy one too?"

Lu Jiawen turned out to be a Kaifeng household without a house! Not only did he not have a "single" private residence in Kaifeng Prefecture, he even did not live in the Lu family's ancestral home. The Lu family said in history that "the country was even more in power, with four people in three generations. The prosperity of aristocratic families was never seen." Of course, such a family had a large house in Kaifeng Prefecture. However, Lu Jiawen was a thief of the Lu family, and the Lu family did not recognize him, so naturally he would not let him live in the ancestral home.

Moreover, Lu Jiawen was a cruel official. Although he had worked as a lot of fat people, he did not open the back door for others and made things difficult for others, so he naturally did not accept bribes... So he had been an official for decades and had not had enough money. He also caught two good son-in-laws who were named on the list and gave him a lot of dowry. Now it is impossible for him to take out 100,000 yuan at once to build a decent mansion in Kaifeng Prefecture, and that kind of dilapidated house is not eye-catching, so the housing problem is still not solved.

"Don't worry about the house," Lu Jia asked, stroking his beard, "There is a golden house in the book. Are you still afraid that you will not have a house in the future?"

"What my father taught me is." Lu Benzhi agreed, but still wanted to go and see it in his heart. The "golden house" mentioned by Emperor Zhenzong is definitely not in Kaifeng Prefecture City. Otherwise, his father had become so many officials, why didn't he have a house in Kaifeng Prefecture?

Lu Jiawen turned his head and looked at the official and said, "Liulang, this place is not far from Xishuimen, so we might as well go to pick up the official tent."

The "highway" he mentioned is of course not a highway, but his eldest son-in-law, the second-in-law in the eighth year of Yuanfeng, Liu Kui, who is currently in the Imperial College. Liu Kui has a mansion in Kaifeng Prefecture, not a private residence, but an official residence assigned by the store and house. Outside Nanxunmen, it is not far from the Imperial College.

Yesterday, when Lu Jiawen arrived in Zhongmu County, Kaifeng Prefecture, he sent his family to send a letter to Liu Kui, the eldest son-in-law of Kaifeng Prefecture, asking him to wait at the official receptionist outside Xishuimen at noon this day.

Now that the time is almost over, Lu Jiawen doesn't want to waste time in the traffic jam, so she just walks over.

Just as Lu Jiawen and his son walked to the Xieguanting together, Liu Kui was chatting with several officials from Taifu Temple and Zeng Bu's son. Zeng Yu, who had just been designated as a mountain mausoleum envoy (the mountain mausoleum envoy who repaired the tomb for Empress Dowager Xiang was Zeng Bu), was chatting while waiting.

Of course, the content of everyone’s chats cannot be separated from houses! Now it’s a national mourning, and it’s not suitable to talk about food, drink, whore and gambling. I can only say that the house is not prohibited from buying a house and speculating in a national mourning!

And Lu Jia asked the Taifu Temple Minister was the one who was responsible for selling the house?

The Imperial College Supervisory Office, Liu Kui, who looked like a white-faced old scholar, touched his beard and said, "I really didn't expect that Wu Haogu's house is so easy to sell. Dutingyi has just started demolishing it, and he has sold all the houses he wants to build..."

"How can a house in Kaifeng Prefecture City not be sold? You can't buy it!"

The person who spoke was Qiang Yuanming. His Zuoxiangdian house was a government office under Taifu Temple, so today we are here to welcome the upcoming boss.

"Since you can't buy it, why no one thought of this wealth?" Zeng Yu asked in confusion.

Qiang Yuanming smiled: "What's the use of thinking about it? Where can I get the land? If I hadn't taken half of Dutingyi's land, Wu Haogu would have sold the houses in Fengqiu Gate at most, and earned more than 100,000 yuan at most... This time the transaction was rewarded by the government."

Zeng Yu took a breath, "If An Shumi hadn't blocked it, wouldn't he have earned more than two million yuan in one hand?"

"It's not him alone," Liu Ai, who was the official of the Zuoxiang Store with Qiang Yuanming, frowned, "Pan Xiao'an and Gao Qiu must score a score... But he can always win 500,000 yuan for this amount from Dutingyi!

The money on this real estate is really profitable!”

"Official Liu, this time, you can make a lot of money when you are at the Zuoxiang Store business, right?"

An official immediately brought the topic to the real estate project of Zuoxiangdian Housekeeping, but Liu Ai's brows became tighter and tighter.

Now Wuhao Gu is counting money, but Zuoxiangdian's housekeeping has become a headless fly. I don't know what to do.

Originally, Qiang Yuanming and Liu Ai had a good idea and cut half of Dutingyi's land into 25 yuan and sold it. If it were done that, it would probably be possible to count the money now.

But the official family wanted to go to the store office to learn from the bullshit Wanjia Real Estate and also build a compact house... How to build this? Who will build it? Where can the capital be paid? Can the house built by the store office be sold?

There are a lot of problems!

What's even more hateful is that Li Jie, who specializes in building a house, is still mourning for his mother at home, and his father is about to die again... As a result, he sent a foul man named Lu Jia, who asked him how to do this job when he came to manage Taifu Temple?

...

At the same time, Wu Haogu was a little confused. It was because there were too many people buying the houses. Because they were selling off-the-stop houses, Wu Haogu was worried at first that no one dared to buy them for fear of being cheated! What if Wu Haogu, a tycoon, escaped with the money?

But the matter was far beyond his expectations. Not only did people line up to take a seat downstairs of the Republican Train from last night, but many people also gave him the senior management of the Republican Train and Wanjia Real Estate Train to book a house!

Moreover, they are all rich or noble people... Almost all of them have official positions. Some people have good positions and have become officials in court, so they are not afraid of being deceived by Wu Haogu. Who dares to deceive so many officials? If they really cheat their money, they can't escape from heaven and earth.

However, these officials with some means have not bought a satisfactory house in Kaifeng Prefecture yet! This time, they have to buy a "Shikumen" no matter what, and there is no need to pay in installments. They can pay the full amount as long as they have a house! Maybe they can't get it out for a 100,000 or 80,000 yuan, but there are so many officials who can get it out for 20,000 yuan.
