The rural life of a peasant girl

Chapter 83 I bought a house, I bought a house (2)
The two looked around.

This is a house with a front shop and a backyard that Liu Yaqi helped to find in the county seat. In front of it are four two-storey facade houses facing the street, and behind the facade houses is a large yard.The courtyard is divided into two parts by a wall. There is no main room in the middle courtyard, and the wing rooms on both sides are warehouses and kitchens. In addition, there are stables, and there is a cellar under the warehouse.And the backyard, viewed alone, is a complete family, with four main rooms, three side rooms on the left and three sides, and a back door at the back, leading directly to the alley outside.

What Su Ling is currently in is the middle courtyard.

Her family entrusted Liu Yake to look for shops and houses in the county town, this is the place Liu Yake helped to find, Su Ling first looked around in the middle courtyard, and then went to the storefront in front.This store is facing the East Street, and the storefront is on the south side of the street.The street is in a densely populated part of the county. This store was originally a grocery store. Because the owner of the store had something to go back to his hometown, he was in a hurry to sell.

The goods in the grocery store have been cleared, leaving only a few empty counters.

Su Ling went up to the second floor, opened the window facing the street, and saw that the nearby houses were densely packed, the streets extended in all directions, and people flowed constantly on the street. He asked Liu Yaju what kind of business the shops near this street were doing. It is a relatively famous East Street in Baixian County, and usually the traffic is relatively large. There are grocery stores nearby, cloth stores, rice stores, jewelry stores, etc., but there is no dim sum shop. Su Ling is very satisfied with it. , she originally planned to buy a restaurant, but now she looks at the store and it is not bad, especially the courtyard attached to it, she likes it very much, if there is a restaurant, there is still a chance to buy it again.

Although she liked it very much, she didn't express her opinion right away. Instead, she came down from upstairs and looked at the backyard again.Seeing that the layout of the house is quite satisfactory, looking at the eaves, and then entering the house to look at the roof, beams and columns, etc., they are all genuine materials and not old, so Su Ling nodded secretly.

That Liu Yajia knew that Su Ling was in charge, so he was very attentive and answered ten questions.

"The shelves and counters are all ready-made, and the shop can be opened immediately. The tables and chairs in this room are also made of good wood. This style is also popular in the county. As long as you bring your luggage, you can live... ...The original owner said it was a gift, not money."

"I don't care much about these things then." Su Ling replied.

Su Ling came out from the house and passed through the moon gate between the main room and the west wing.Come to the back of the house.Behind this house is a small garden with several wintersweet and two peach trees.There is a blue brick doorway on the back wall, and the two wooden doors are tightly locked.

"This wintersweet blooms in winter. It's beautiful. It's different from the fragrance of other flowers... The peach trees are already ready to bear fruit, and next year there will be peaches to eat. These are not hairy peaches, but big honey peaches."

After Liu Yayu introduced the wintersweet and peach trees in the garden, he took out the key from his waist.Unlock the back door and let Su Ling see.Outside this door is Liushujing Hutong, and the people living on both sides are middle and upper-class families.

Seeing the yard inside and out, Su Ling had an idea in his heart, looked at Su Dong, the two looked at each other, the meaning was self-evident, they were very satisfied with the yard.

Of course, Liu Yaqi also saw the eye contact between the two, seeing that they were both satisfied, he flattered them even more laboriously.

There are 23 houses in this whole house, the front shop and the backyard, which meet the requirements of Su Ling's heart.

The Su family's family business has expanded, and Su Dong will also go to school in the county after taking the Chunwei exam. It has become necessary to buy a house in the county.Moreover, when traveling to and from Fucheng in the future, it will be much more convenient to have such a house in the county town.

And the things at home also need to be sold, like the sauerkraut and spicy bamboo shoots made at home, Su Ling had an idea when she saw that this was originally for buying groceries. She can keep the convenience of the grocery store, but this store is also enough Big, 1 can be divided into two at that time, one sells groceries, and the other sells snacks, it can be regarded as both!Of course, this is just Su Ling's current thinking.

The county has a large population and more developed commerce.The transportation is more convenient.Opening a store in the county, further expanding the reputation of various products produced by the Su family, and providing convenience for buyers, then sales will naturally increase.

And Bai County is just the first step they took from Huaxi Village to the outside world.In the future, with this first step, the first step, their production and sales chain will expand to more and further places.

After all, only by developing sales can the production on the land be converted into currency in circulation, thereby achieving the goal of wealth.

Both of them like this courtyard very much, so the next thing will be quite smooth.Liu Yaqi quickly invited the original owner and neighbors to be witnesses, and immediately wrote the house sales contract.

Buying and selling houses at this time is similar to buying and selling land.One is a private transaction without going through the county government, which can save a lot of tax money.However, if this method is used to buy and sell houses, the sales contract, that is, the house deed, only states the person who sells the house, as well as the signature of the dentist and witnesses, and the name of the buyer does not appear on the contract.

In this era, the deed is the only proof of property.This way of buying and selling houses, anyone who holds the deed is the owner of the house.Therefore, the deed of the house is lost, the house changes hands, and fraudulent activities such as counterfeiting and deception appear.

Su Ling already knew about this when she bought land at home, therefore, all the land transactions of her family adopt another more secure, that is, formal method.The same goes for buying and selling houses, of course.

Buying and selling a house in this way, first of all, you have to go to the county government to buy a house sales contract uniformly printed by the government, and then, the buyer and the seller fill out the contract, and both parties sign it with witnesses and tooth clerks, and then send the signed contract to the county government. , pay a certain percentage of tax silver.In this way, the transfer procedures of the house will be recorded in the government file. In the future, even if the house deed is lost or there is any dispute, just check the record data of the county government to reissue the house deed. All disputes must be resolved according to the content of the record.

Liu Yaqi was well prepared and bought a contract from the county government early in the morning.The entire house in the front and back yards, including all the decorations and things inside, needs a total price of 1000 taels of silver.Soon a group of people signed the contract for the sale, and Su Ling exchanged the silver. In addition to the price of one thousand silver, there was also tax silver of ten taels of silver.The price silver was handed over to the original owner, and the eight liang of tax money was handed over to Liu Yajiao, who was responsible for going to the yamen, handing over the tax money, filing the transfer procedures, and finally getting back the contract with the yamen seal.

This contract, which is the new house deed of this house, was naturally carefully collected by Su Ling.

The purchase of the house was able to be completed so smoothly, thanks to Liu Yajia. Although Su Ling had already given Xie Yin two taels of silver, the two brothers and sisters decided to invite a meal at a restaurant in the county town.
