Chapter 149 One hundred and forty-four, Shifangyuan Taoist Temple
After Bai Sheng asked a few passers-by, he did not go to stay, but found a dental shop. Such things as dental shops were intermediaries in ancient times. Bai Sheng did not expect that this kind of industry also existed in the world of Jambudvipa. After Bai Sheng found out that there was a dental shop in Daliang City, he asked people about it and went to find the largest one in Daliang City.
The currency of Nanchanbuzhou is generally copper coins as in ancient China. Although gold and silver are also used as currency, due to their high value, they are usually only stored in the homes of wealthy households as wealth. Very few people use gold and silver to buy things.
Bai Sheng traveled through time and did a lot of killing and selling goods, so he had a lot of gold and silver on his body. If almost everyone in the Taoist cultivator has a magic bag, this thing can hold a lot of things, and all the things Bai Sheng killed are all He is a disciple of an evil way and has no moral restraint, so he has a lot of possessions, all of which are expensive gold and silver items, as well as many jewelry and treasures.
After finding the largest dental shop in the area, Bai Sheng saw a waiter coming out to greet him and said directly: "I want to rent a courtyard. It is best to have a complete set of servants and maids, and the building is clean. I wonder if your dental shop can have such a business?" ?" The waiter who came out to welcome you saw that Bai Sheng and Bai Que'er were both dressed as Taoist priests. He originally thought they were not big customers. But when he heard that Bai Sheng wanted to rent such a house, he couldn't help but secretly rejoiced. He first asked Bai Sheng and Bai Que'er Bai Qiaoer came in and went to browse the catalog of hookups entrusted by the bank. The clerk went to browse for a while, and then said to Bai Sheng with a look of embarrassment: "Our bank does not have this kind of housing for rent at the moment, but there are a few. The house is for sale, please discuss with the owner to see if the house can be rented out temporarily."
Bai Sheng asked casually: "How many houses are there?"
The clerk cheered up and said one by one: "The house with the south gate was originally the villa of the local wealthy Wang Yuanwai. However, Wang Yuanwai now wants to move his family and return to his hometown for retirement, so he plans to sell it. .This house is quite large, covering an area of more than fifty acres, and it is fully equipped with maids and servants. The asking price is 3,500 guan..." Seeing that Bai Sheng didn't seem interested, the guy immediately introduced another house.
The price of goods in Nanchanbuzhou is close to that in ancient China. It has always been equal to a thousand yuan, which is about one tael of silver. Ten taels of silver is about one tael of gold. This 3,500 yuan house is equivalent to several million yuan when converted into RMB. Of course, in terms of area, such a house would not be worth a billion or eighty million in future generations.
Bai Sheng's money on hand is enough to buy such a house, but he is not from the second generation of rich people after all. Although he has a lot of money, he has no intention of squandering it.
The clerk introduced several houses, but when he saw that Bai Sheng was not interested in any of them, he suddenly had an idea and flipped through the main catalog of Yaxing and said: "Actually, there is another place that suits the two of you, but this is not It is a Taoist temple instead of a house. This Taoist temple was built by the previous dynasty and has experienced several wars. Today, most of the buildings are still in existence. The chief officer of the mansion has recruited Youdao Zhenren to preside over it several times, but he has never been able to do so. He is a reliable temple owner, so he wants to sell it. If the two real people are willing to buy this Taoist temple, they only need two hundred dollars in cash. This Taoist temple is bigger than those houses, with a full area of 150 acres. superior."
Bai Sheng immediately became interested. In fact, his unwillingness to stay in an inn was a habit in his previous life. When traveling, he often likes to take a long vacation, and then rent a short-term rental house in a certain city for a month to blend into the atmosphere of that city.
, instead of just being a tourist who comes and goes in a hurry, walking around a lot, but not appreciating the local culture and historical atmosphere.
He planned to stay in Daliang City for a few days, so he asked Yaxing to rent a courtyard, which was more comfortable than staying in an inn.
The price of this Taoist temple was so high. Bai Sheng was not a fool. He thought to himself: "There are some theories about this Taoist temple, but I don't know if it is haunted or if people died. There should be no shoddy construction in ancient times.
It’s a building from the previous dynasty again. It’s been able to survive for so long without collapsing, so it’s probably not a quality problem.” The guy from the dental shop was also used to doing business, and he was very thoughtful. Seeing that Bai Sheng was indeed a little happy, he went to the back and handed over the title deed of the Taoist temple.
All the corresponding official documents were also picked up.
Bai Sheng saw that this dental shop was really powerful, and even the government could ask them to sell government property, so he readily took two hundred taels of silver and asked this guy to complete all the procedures for him. This
The clerk was experienced in his work. He prepared all the formalities and documents without hesitation. He also specially sent people to the Yamen to file all the documents for the land and house deeds. It only took him two or three hours. Such efficiency is in vain.
Sheng lived in an era that was enough to put any self-proclaimed efficient government department to shame. Of course, these places were so thick-skinned that they wouldn't be so ashamed.
When Bai Que'er saw that Bai Sheng suddenly wanted to buy a house, she felt a little strange in her heart. She must know that a monk like her can't tolerate the worldly world and would rather live in a remote place in the mountains. After all, the environment in the mountains is quiet and there are no
No one often disturbs the various troubles in the world, which is more conducive to purification. But since Bai Sheng behaves like this, Bai Qiao'er thinks there must be some truth, not to mention that two or three hundred guan of money is for someone like her who only knows how to practice hard.
Female Taoist priests are also looked down upon.
The richest man in the world is an immortal!
Even corrupt officials and wealthy businessmen still have to work hard to make money, but people who are cultivating immortals don't have to worry about such things. As long as they have an idea, there are countless ways to make money. But this type of people who are cultivating immortals don't have to worry about it.
, and there is not much place to spend money, so they are indifferent to money. Only time-travelers like Bai Sheng still have some habits from the previous life. Even though they know that they are different from before, gold and silver goods are readily available, they still live within their means.
, the habit of spending money carefully.
After taking the land deed and house deed document delivered by the clerk at Yahang, Bai Sheng declined the clerk's offer to lead the way, and then he and Bai Que'er strolled by car to find the Shifangyuan Taoist Temple. The location of this Taoist temple is not remote.
At the intersection of two of the busiest streets in Daliang City, it is a good place to take a break from the bustle. If in a certain country on earth, just renting out fronts could make the Taoist priests in the temple fat and strong. If it could be developed,
The Taoist priests of Shifangyuan Taoist Temple have to drive Mercedes-Benz and BMWs and sleep with girls from all the nightclubs within a fifty-mile radius.
The architecture of Daliang City is just like that of Chang'an in ancient times. According to the central axis structure, the streets are horizontal and vertical, with no twists and turns. All streets are clear and refreshing. Cities like this have been demolished in China.
, in the era of Bai Sheng’s previous life, if you want to see such neat streets, there are no authentic ones, so you can only go to the famous Kyoto to see high imitations.
Bai Shengcai stepped into the Shifangyuan Taoist Temple and immediately noticed a familiar aura that enveloped the entire Shifangyuan Taoist Temple, causing him to raise his brows and reveal a rather amusing smile.
