Even though no one has lived in it and no one has taken care of it for many years, the courtyard wall has not collapsed yet, which shows that a lot of effort was put into it when it was built.
This is the Provincial City East Street, one of the most prosperous areas.
Because, across the street and around Mei's house, there are shops one after another.
This plum house is located here alone. Except for an old gate, there is a wall in front of it. Therefore, it is out of tune with the surroundings.
"Master, we have made a lot of money." Qiao Xiao said with a smile.
"How can you see it?" Tang Wen asked.
"You see, this house is so big and it is located in a prosperous area of the provincial capital. In the future, if we pile up the walls of this house, we can create dozens of shops. By then, just collecting rent will be a big income.
"Qiao Xiao said with a smile.
"Maybe all that's left is this wall, which is full of garbage. We spent hundreds of thousands of taels, and it's just an empty shell." Tang Wen said.
"Master, let's go in and take a look first," Luo Yiwu said, so the group of people walked towards the door.
The gate was sealed by Jiangzhou Mansion, but Jiangzhou Mansion had already sold Mei Zhai to Tang Wen, so Qiao Xiao and Tian Hao personally stepped forward and removed the seal.
Creaking, a large cloud of dust blew towards my face, and the two old wooden doors were slowly pushed open.
What comes into view is a road paved with bluestones, three meters wide.
However, the grass was forced out of the cracks in the bluestone, and the two sides were covered with grass. It was simply a patch of grass.
The rotten leaves were spread one foot high, and a rotten smell came out, which was disgusting.
At this time, a passerby passed by and saw that the door was open.
These people just glanced at it, and the next moment, they all looked panicked and ran away in a hurry.
"Bah, bah, sir, you guessed it right. It's just a garbage dump. How can anyone live there?" Luo Yiwu choked a few times and said with a look of disgust.
"Let's take a walk around first to see if there are any houses in good condition." Tang Wen said, so a few guards took woodcutter to chop grass in front to clear a path, and the group walked in.
The ground is full of bird droppings, rats are scurrying around, and spider webs are flying everywhere. It’s almost a bird’s paradise.
However, the rockeries, ponds and swamps are still there, as well as small bridges and flowing water. If they are taken care of, the scenery will still be good.
After walking about forty meters, I finally saw a dilapidated house.
Although the house is dilapidated, it is very large, with several entrances and exits, and dozens of rooms.
However, basically everything collapsed, and few rooms were left intact.
The hall was still sloppy, so Luo Yiwu arranged for people to clean it up for an hour, then brought a large sofa chair from the carriage and asked Tang Wen to sit down.
"Master, there is a small independent courtyard in the back that is well preserved. It should be suitable for people to live in after cleaning it up." At this time, Li Quan came in and said with excitement.
"Go over and take a look." Tang Wen stood up and the group of people went to the backyard.
I found that this single-family house was indeed well preserved, with not much dust at all.
There are also dressing tables, exquisite carved beds, large wardrobes, etc.
"This should be where the former owner's family lived," Luo Yiwu said.
"The small kitchen in the back is also very well preserved. It's just here. Clean it out first and stay here at night." Tang Wen said.
So, after another hard work, the "plumber" brought by Tang Wen was busy installing wires, lights and tubes.
Another group of people installed mobile toilets... and used water pumps to pump water from the pond in the yard into a several-ton water storage tank, and then connected it to a mobile water purifier to connect the bathroom and kitchen.
After being busy until the evening, I finally cleaned it up and was able to pack my bags and move in.
Tang Wen took a bath, and when he came out, the cook had already prepared wine and food, and Gu Hanyan was waiting for dinner.
Tang Wen was also tired and fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, Li Quan screamed, waking everyone up.
Tang Wen quickly went downstairs and found Li Quan trembling on the ground, pointing at the window with a look of horror, unable to speak.
"what happened?"
"Ghosts...there are...there are ghosts..." Li Quan pointed out the window and shouted.
Luo Yiwu and his group quickly asked people to go out and search. Soon they came back, shook their heads and said, "Didn't find anything?"
"There really is a ghost, sir. I saw a shadow flash by and it almost scared me to death. The ghost's body was green and his tongue was hanging out. He must be a hanged ghost." Li Quan calmed down and said,
He said quickly.
"Aren't you dazzled? For example, what do you think of the commotion and the scurrying cats and dogs?" Qiao Xiao asked.
"No, I really saw it." Li Quan said with certainty.
"That's strange. Tian Hao and I have been keeping watch, so why didn't we see anything?" Qiao Xiao asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"I didn't see anything either," Luo Yiwu said.
"It could be wild animals, such as cats, rabbits, weasels, etc." Gu Hanyan said.
"Could it be a fox? Vixens can be charming." Tian Hao said.
"Okay, okay, it's okay. Let's all rest." Tang Wen waved his hand and went back to the house to continue sleeping.
However, I had only slept for more than an hour when my whole body suddenly felt numb.
It seems like there is wind blowing on my face, but the windows are closed properly, where is the wind coming from?
He immediately sat up, picked up the pistol lying next to him, turned on the light and took a look, but found nothing.
Moreover, even the windows are closed properly.
Is there really a ghost?
Just scare yourself, probably because of Li Quan's influence.
The guy thought about it, and Gu Hanyan was still sleeping next door, and there were Tian Hao and Qiao Xiao downstairs.
Luo Yiwu was also in another room on the second floor, and several personal guards were arranged to patrol outside, so he slept peacefully.
However, just after sleeping for an hour, Tang Wen jumped up again with excitement.
I clearly felt someone touching my face just now, and the feeling was very clear.
So, he called Gu Hanyan and Luo Yiwu over and said, "Did you find anything?"
"No." Luo Yiwu shook his head.
"Master, are you scared by Li Quan?" Gu Hanyan teased.
"It's a joke. I'm not afraid of ghosts. I'm worried about danger. What are ghosts afraid of?" Tang Wen said. In fact, this guy was still a little scared.
"Then go to sleep quickly and stop thinking about it. We are here, what are you afraid of?
If you are really too timid to sleep, I will just come over and watch you sleep.
Or you can just keep the lights on." Gu Hanyan said with a smile.
"Why turn on the light? I'm a grown man and I want you to accompany me? Just sleep." Tang Wen was so overwhelmed by Gu Hanyan that he turned around and went back to the house to sleep.
Down below, I slept until dawn and found nothing. It seemed that it was a false alarm.
In the morning, just after washing up, Gu Hanyan came in with a bowl of soup and said, "Master, this is the soothing soup. Drink it while it's hot."
"Soothing soup, sir, everything is fine with me, what can I do to soothe my nerves?" Tang Wen looked at Gu Hanyan with a confused look on his face.
"You were fussy and frightened yesterday, so you might as well drink." Gu Hanyan pursed his lips and smiled.
"Take it, take it, give it to Li Quan to drink. Master, what am I afraid of? Hurry up." Tang Wen said.
"It's okay if you don't want to drink, but don't mess around at night. When the time comes, you will call us over again and again, but you have to let us sleep, right?" Gu Hanyan said.
"I know, I will never call you tonight." Tang Wen rolled his eyes.
"You said so!" Gu Hanyan snorted.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the group went straight to the Earl's Mansion of Third Class Boshawgay.
This guy's house is quite grand, not inferior to Mei's house. Although the location is not as good as Mei's house, the area is not small at all.
Moreover, there is a bronze lion squatting in front of the door, and the bronze door is clearly displayed. You can tell it is a wealthy family at a glance.
Yesterday, Luo Yiwu arranged for someone to pass the greeting card in, so when Tang Wen came over, the guard didn't make it difficult for him and introduced him directly.
There are small bridges, flowing water, red flowers and green leaves, and an artificial small lake inside. The scenery is charming.
