Chapter 208 Buying a Yard (Please Subscribe and Ask for a Monthly Pass)

Qingyan quickly shook her head and said, "It doesn't need that much, just one yard is enough. I wonder what the price is for the yard next to the city wall?"

The dental man gave her a curious look, "You don't need to check the courtyards? I don't know the details of the three courtyards. This book only records the size of the courtyards and the number of rooms."

Qingyan was at a loss for words for a while, so she couldn't say that she and Chouchou both used their spiritual sense to go in and have a look, right?

The structures of the three courtyards are similar, with three main rooms and two side rooms, but the courtyard at the far end is the largest, and the side next to the city wall is surrounded by an extra three meters. The courtyard is large enough to install wooden houses.

Jian Yaren was still waiting for her reply, so he could only find a reason to make up: "My relatives live nearby, I visited his house to know some things, the house on the far side has the largest yard, if there are more people in the house , or build another house.”

Yaren nodded knowingly, "I see, since the girl also knows that the yard is the largest, she also knows that the price must be higher than the other two.

That yard costs 28 taels of silver, and the other two costs 26 taels. The extra taels are the money of that yard. "

When Qingyan heard the price, she felt that the price was reasonable. Although the place was remote, it was a house in the county town, more than 20 taels was not expensive.

However, the counter-offer still has to be paid back, otherwise it always feels like a loss.

"Can the price be lower? I don't have much money to prepare. The house needs to be repaired after I buy it, and the furniture, pots and pans have to be repurchased..."

It's not surprising that Yaren sees Qingyan bargaining. After all, buying a house is a major event in life. It is impossible to give as much as you want. Many people may not be able to afford a yard even if they save their entire life. .

Although this little girl looks extraordinary, and she is wearing muslin clothes, she doesn't look like that of a poor family, but seeing that she behaves like someone who has never seen the world, she should have a plan in her heart.

Then he said to her: "The owner of the house has already gone to Fucheng. This house is entrusted to his relatives. The relatives hung the yard here, so as for the price, I can't easily lower the price here. I have to ask Just pass the opponent.

But he also told me that if you want all three courtyards, the price can be five taels lower, a total of 75 taels, and each courtyard is 25 taels. "

Qingyan nodded, feeling confident. Since she didn't directly refuse, she knew that there was still room for discussion, so she had to go to that relative to negotiate the price.

So I followed Yaren to the south of the city. The relative lived not far from the yard she wanted to buy, just two alleys away.

They stopped at the gate of a courtyard in the middle, and the Yaman stepped forward to knock on the door. A woman in her 40s came to open the door. Seeing that the Yaman obviously knew each other, she invited them in directly.

Invite them to sit down in the main room, and after pouring tea, they called out a middle-aged man who was her husband.

Yaren introduced: "This is the cousin of the owner, surnamed Qi."

"This Miss Yang wants to buy your cousin's yard, come over and discuss the price."

The man surnamed Qi nodded and said, "Girl, do you want all three yards, or just buy one of them?"

Qingyan: "I want to buy the one on the far side near the city wall. I wonder if it can be cheaper?"

"That yard is the largest, and the price is more expensive than the other two. If the girl buys it sincerely, you can give the girl five coins less."

As soon as Qingyan saw that there was a connection, she began to flirt with him, and the tooth man also helped to deal with it.

Qingyan knew that he was also earning fees from it, so she was sure to earn some money if she was so active, so she continued to work hard.

After wrestling with him for a full quarter of an hour, the other party finally let go and gave him a tael cheaper, that is, 27 taels.

This is much cheaper, after all, where the base is, Qingyan is very content.

You can buy a lot of things if you can grind one or two.

Just such a comparison, the three wooden houses that she customized seemed a bit expensive, a courtyard was only 27 taels, while the three wooden houses she customized were only 20 taels.

That's right, it was 20 taels. She paid a deposit of [-] taels, and when it was finished, she had to pay the balance of [-] taels.

Of course, it is all made of wood, and it is understandable that the labor is more expensive. It is just that if there is no comparison, it does not feel that big. With the comparison, the difference is obvious.

At least that yard includes not only the yard and the house, but also the title deed of that place. If it wasn't for going to other places for a stroll, I would just settle here.

After negotiating the price, Yaren took them to the yard.

Although the price has been negotiated, the process still needs to go through again. The three of them went in to have a look, and it was not far from what she saw with their spiritual sense.

There is basically no furniture in the house, except for a tattered cupboard in the side room.

There are three main rooms, the main room in the middle, and two bedrooms on both sides. They are all made of earth kangs. There is not even a mat on them. It seems that they have all been moved.

I don't know if there are no weeds in the yard because it is almost winter. Of course, it is also possible that the cousin is more responsible and often comes to clean up, so the yard is very clean.

The most gratifying thing is that there is a well in the corner of the yard.

This is very rare. You must know that not every household here has a well, even in this county.

Many families fetch water from the public well at the entrance of the alley, which is similar to that in the village. They get up every morning to fetch water.

Like those shops on the street, except for those relatively large inns and restaurants, there are water wells in the courtyard. When people choose the site, they choose the place where the well can be drilled. inconvenient.

As for this kind of place with many ordinary residents, it is not necessarily the case. Many people are reluctant to spend the money for drilling wells.

I heard Yaren said: "This yard is more expensive, besides the size of the yard, there is this well, the other two yards don't have wells.

Because the three families were brothers before, they all used the water from this well. At the beginning, the three courtyards were connected, but they were separated by walls after the separation. "

Qingyan nodded, feeling a little tongue-tied in her heart, although the location is not very good, and the yard is not so exquisite, but it can be seen from the area that she is quite well-off.

After turning around, the three of them went out of the yard, locked the door, and went back directly to the dental shop.

That cousin Qi brought out the deed when he first came out, so he went directly to the dental office to go through the transfer procedures.

It was a new house deed, and Qingyan asked Yaren to write Yin Keqin's name directly.

She asked Chouchou to use her spiritual sense to get Yin Keqin's household registration certificate from Yin Keqin's house before, and handled the deed for him.

Anyway, what they wanted was to leave the house to him when they left, there was no need to transfer hands.

Besides, it is troublesome to write her own name. Her household registration is not here, not to mention it is too far away, and her age may not match.

It has been quite a few years, and I am afraid that the dentist will think it is her mother.

Another one is that the dynasty has changed now, who knows if the household registration can still be used, maybe it has been changed long ago.

So the best way is to use a local, and this local Qingyan doesn't know anyone else, so Yin Keqin's is the most convenient.

After finishing the house deed, Chou Chou sent the household registration back. The house deed will be given to them when they leave, and it will be put together with the household registration at that time. As for when they find out, she doesn't care.

Anyway, it was put there. If the other party found out and was curious, he would definitely come to the county to take a look, and then he would know it was true. Maybe the other party thought it was his father who had appeared.

After finishing all these, Qingyan went back to the inn directly. Since she had already paid the money, she would definitely stay for one night today, and then she would not stay in the inn tomorrow, just go directly to her own house.

What she said about buying things is not a lie, anyway, they want to add furniture to the space, so they can just order a batch.

Of course, she had to change to a carpenter's shop, or else that shop would have to drive her out to build a wooden house, and then let them make furniture, and I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to get out by then.

Fortunately, there is not only one carpenter's shop in the county seat, but three, and I doubled the other two. One family made wardrobes, tables, chairs and benches, and the other made beds and couch. At that time, two beds will be placed in the space. Put one in the cabin and take it out at any time, so that you don't have to move it back and forth.

I didn't make that kind of exquisitely carved Babu bed. It would take too long to build it, and it couldn't be built in a few months.

Just build three simple canopy beds directly. In terms of size, there are only two double beds and one single bed.

When they said they were going to make a bed at the carpenter's shop, the other party was quite surprised.

This side basically sleeps on earth kangs, and there are very few beds. I was relieved to hear that she wanted canopy beds without carvings. Unlike the south side, the furniture here is not so delicate.

Except for rich and noble families who will find special master craftsmen to make it, most people can make cabinets, tables, chairs and benches at most, and it would be good to make lace on it.

The furniture here is relatively rough, which may have something to do with the customs here.

It's almost evening after finishing these orders, and I still went to Mi's Restaurant for dinner, and packed two copies for Chouchou, and then went back to the inn.

After a good night's sleep, he got up early the next morning and returned the house, and drove the carriage to the yard he bought newly.

When passing by the grocery store, I bought a copper lock by the way.

After all, the owner has changed, so the old copper lock must not be used again, and the old lock will be directly put into the Chou Chou space, maybe it will be needed in the future, so there is no need to buy it.

When I got back to the yard, I cleaned it up and burned the kang, and found that it burned well, and there was no smoke at all, so I didn't need to re-set the kang.

Clean the surface of the kang directly, spread a layer of mats, and then spread a layer of coarse cloth sheets on the mats, and then spread the sheepskin mattress made before, and then lay a layer of fine cotton sheets on top, so that you can sleep on it at night up.

The only downside is that the kang is not connected to the stove, it is a special kang hole when the kang is burned.

There are two kang caves, one inside the house and the other outside. They can be burned inside or outside. If there is smoke in the house, they can be outside. If it is cold, firewood can be brought in, and it is the same to add directly from inside. Very convenient.

At this moment, of course, Qingyan burned it outside. When it first started burning, there would be a bit of smoke. At night, you can add firewood inside the house.

The firewood was not from their space, but the broken cabinet left by the previous owner, which was directly dismantled and burned.

The cabinet is already broken, otherwise the owner wouldn't have thrown it away at home.

The wood used was not very good, and it hadn't been painted, and the backboard was already bad, and it had been used for a long time, so she just chopped it up and burned it as firewood.

Chou Chou also came out of the space, but instead of becoming the size of an adult, it became the size of a normal monkey, less than one meter high, so even if someone saw it, they would think she raised an ordinary monkey at most , will not feel very strange.

After tidying up, Qingyan cleaned the yard again. By the way, she fetched some water from the well and checked. The water was quite clear and usable.

After that, I went out to the carpenter's shop, told the other party the address of the house, and asked them to send it here directly after they were done, and install it directly in the yard at that time.

By the way, I also went to two other shops to talk about it, because they make a lot of them, so they are all delivered to the door, so there is no need for Qingyan to pick them up.

Afterwards, I went to buy a lot of radishes, cabbage and seasonings, and started the fire at home at night. I can't eat restaurants every day.

She also went to the grocery store again, because she had forgotten to buy candles and lamp oil before.

After arriving at the grocery store, I realized that candles are not so easy to buy. Most of the candles that are usually burned are custom-made by wealthy families. There are only a few red candles in the grocery store, and they are all sold to those who are married. for human use.

And the price is still very expensive. After all, wedding supplies may only come once in a lifetime, so the price will definitely not be cheap.

Qingyan thought, anyway, when there is no one around, most of them use spirit stones for lighting, and they don't use them much, so they just bought two and kept them ready.

When buying it, the boss kept looking at her. He probably has never seen a girl of her age who came to buy red candles by herself.

Qingyan was quite embarrassed by his look, so she bought some lamp oil and two oil lamps, and left quickly.

This oil lamp is to be used in case someone is walking with you when you are on the road in the future.

No one can guarantee whether they will meet the kind of people who happen to be on the same road in the future. If they want to go with them, she can't just say no.

When I arrived at the cloth shop, I bought some colorful fabrics and planned to use them to make bed curtains or something.

In that wooden house, she specially asked the other party to make the windows a little bigger, so that the lighting inside would be better during the day.

But it's a pity that there is no glass. If you use window paper, it only transmits light and is not transparent, so it is better to use plastic sheeting.
