Chapter 757: Buy a house

Crabs walk and dominate!
It is Chen Zhuangshi's current state.
He led Yan Ci, Wang Xuecheng, and Yang Ji on the streets of Xinmin County.
He walked in the forefront, the son-in-law doing pie, holding a folding fan in his hand, shaking and shaking, and occasionally glanced at the big girl and the little wife passing by.
The big girls all giggled at him, and Chen Zhuangshi became more proud, grinning from time to time.
Yang Ji walked at the very end, barely watching.
How degenerate he must be before agreeing to go to the streets with Chen Zhuangshi.
It feels so embarrassing!
Wang Xuecheng looked excited and admired.
Everything about Chen Zhuangshi is beyond his reach.
He doesn't have the clever brains of Chen Zhuangshi, he doesn't have such sloppy lips, and he has no big ambitions or ambitions.
Always think more and do less.
And Chen Zhuangshi always does what he thinks of, he is full of action.
He wanted to buy a house, so he took everyone to the street to see the house.
Wang Xuecheng was full of envy and admiration!
Chen Zhuangshi rectifies the names of all talents and wins glory.
It's really amazing.
Yan Ci's face was pale, and he didn't know how long he hadn't been out in the sun.
He has lost a lot of weight, as if the wind blows down.
Had it not been for Chen Zhuangshi to pull him out forcibly, he would stay in the dormitory and write novels as usual.
Chen Zhuangshi stopped and looked back at the three of them.
"Brother Yan, cheer up. I'm going to treat you today, but don't be polite with me. Brother Yang, can your disgusting face be restrained? Anyway, you want to buy a house. We are on the way."
Yang Ji sighed, he regretted it.
He should not agree to Chen Zhuangshi and buy a house together.
Chen Zhuangshi walked up to Yang Ji and put his arms around his shoulders, "I'm going to treat you today, Brother Yang must show some face."
"Can you put away the fan in your hand first? It's too ugly." Yang Ji said bluntly.
Chen Zhuangshi was taken aback, "Is it ugly? This fan cost me a couple of dollars."
"It's expensive, up to three hundred wen."
Yang Ji's three hundred essays made Chen Zhuangshi grin, distressed.
After all, he was born in poverty and cares more about money.
He closed the fan, "His grandma's will never be arty anymore, it's all money-burning stuff."
Yang Ji asked him, "Buy a house?"
"Buy it!"
Yang Ji pointed to the surroundings, "Since I want to buy a house, why go to the market?"
Chen Zhuangshi smiled, "Forget about it!"
The four turned around and went to buy a house.
Both of them are not bad money owners, and each bought a suite in the third phase to live in with their family.
Later, he moved to the sixth phase, planning to buy a set for rent.
Yang Ji chose a house with a total price of four hundred taels of silver.
Chen Zhuangshi wanted to be a neighbor with him, in the name of facilitating rent collection, and also bought a house worth 400 taels.
I paid the money, registered the name and identity, and then waited for the formalities.
Wang Xuecheng was very envious, "I thought that when we entered the academy together, we all had nothing. Now that Brother Chen and Brother Yang have bought a house, I am still alone."
Chen Zhuangshi took his shoulders, "Why brother Wang should be a little girl. Why don't you buy a set here for rent, the rent is enough for you to live a worry-free life."
Wang Xuecheng waved his hands again and again, "I can't afford a house, Brother Chen, don't laugh."
However, Chen Zhuangshi wanted to help Wang Xuecheng, "I know that most of your money is given to the family, and there is not much savings. I have money here, and I will lend it to you. You can pay a down payment and pay it back with rent every month. loan."
Wang Xuecheng hesitated.
Borrowing money is easy, but repaying it is difficult.
But if the house can be rented out smoothly, it will be easy to pay back the money.
He looked towards Yan Ci, "Brother Yan wants to buy a house?"
"what?"
Yan Cihun traveled outside the sky and was finally awakened by Wang Xuecheng.
He was still confused, "What to buy?"
"Does Brother Yan really want to give up the imperial examination? Next year, Brother Yan will not participate in the imperial examination?" Chen Zhuangshi asked him.
Yan Ci sighed, "After reading for so many years, I naturally want to make a difference in the imperial examination. However, I know how many kilograms I have. At my level, I will work hard for ten or eight years, maybe It may be titled on the gold list. Next year, let's forget it, so as not to be embarrassed. If I fail the exam, I have to think of a way out. Everyone knows that I love the legendary novels published by Wenqing Bookstore, and I am determined to write a best-selling book. Legendary novel."
Chen Zhuangshi patted him on the shoulder, "In this case, Brother Yan should even buy a house and settle down to ensure that he has no worries about food and clothing. You can't stay in the academy forever. It is impossible for the academy to support you for a lifetime."
Yanci touched his head, "I'm ashamed in my pocket, how can I be qualified to buy a house and settle down."
"I lent it to Brother Yan. Don't refuse Brother Yan."
Yan Ci looked hesitant.
"That..." Wang Xuecheng looked at the crowd and hesitated: "Brother Yan wants to write a book, why not ask Brother Yang. Brother Yang is quite experienced in this area."
Yes, why forgot Yang Ji.
Yang Ji was the most sought after Wenqing Bookstore.
According to incomplete reliable information, "Past Life and Present Life" was written by Yang Ji.
Yang Ji also relied on this book and took a generous amount of money for money.
However, Yang Ji has never admitted this statement.
The eyes of everyone fell on Yang Ji's face.
Chen Zhuangshi opened his eyebrows and smiled and shouted affectionately, "Brother Yang!"
Yang Ji said blankly: "If Brother Yan really intends to take the road of writing a small talk book, my suggestion is to go to Wenqing Bookstore for one or two years of exercise, it will definitely be rewarding."
"Brother Yan went to the Wenqing Bookstore, can he continue to stay in the academy?" Wang Xuecheng was very worried, and the issues he considered were very realistic.
Chen Zhuangshi asked Yang Ji, "Brother Yang can take the time to instruct Brother Yan?"
Yang Ji shook his head, "It's not that I don't want to, but I can't. Next year is the year of the imperial examination. When I finish today, I will study hard in retreat. I really can't spare time to guide Brother Yan.
Again, everyone has different styles, so my opinion may not be suitable for Brother Yan. However, Wenqing Bookstore is different. Wenqing Bookstore publishes at least three or five legendary novels every year. Brother Yan can try various styles to find the path that suits him best.
If you do well, the treatment is extremely high. Moreover, Wenqing Bookstore has a high status in the minds of scholars. Brother Yan will not humiliate anyone when he goes to Wenqing Bookstore to work. Going now can still take the lead. In a few years, I am afraid there will be a lot of people applying for jobs at Wenqing Bookstore. "
Chen Zhuangshi curiously asked: "Why did Brother Yang make this inference?"
Yang Ji said: "It is very difficult to be an official. Unless someone in the DPRK supports him, such as the magistrate of Xinmin County, Mr. Gu, falls into this category.
However, the vast majority of Juren had no chance to be an official throughout their lives. I can only serve as a clerical official in Yamen, and I never have a chance to make an appearance in my life. Doing the most tiring work, with the cheapest salary, if you don't know how to go to camp, you won't even be able to support your family.
In the past, there was no choice, even if the clerical staff was not what they wanted, many juren would continue to stay in the yamen and work till they die. But now I have a choice, you can go to the Yamen, you can also go to the academy, you can go to the bookstore, or you can go to the business...
Now everyone's thinking is not clear enough, thinking that jumping out of the yamen and making a living outside is detrimental to your reputation. In a few years, there will always be people with clear ideas who will make a living. By then, I want to enter the Wenqing Bookstore, but it will not be as easy as it is now.
If Brother Yan is determined to abandon the imperial examination, I suggest that he make plans early. The house here, even if you borrow money, you should buy a set, you will not lose money, but also let you worry-free. "
"Brother Yang makes sense."
Chen Zhuangshi looked at Yan Ci, "Brother Yan think about it? I have money with me and I can lend it to you now."
Yan Ci hesitated, he asked Wang Xuecheng, "Is Brother Wang buying a house?"
Wang Xuecheng has made up his mind, "If you have Brother Chen's support, then buy a set. I am waiting for Xiaomin. If I missed this time, I am afraid I will never have such a good opportunity again."
Yanci was finally persuaded, and he nodded, "Then buy it."
The two selected a small apartment, borrowed a sum of money from Chen Zhuangshi, and paid the down payment.
"From now on, you and I will become house slaves. If this house can't be rented out, then we will be finished."
"I can't finish it. I can definitely rent it out. Next year in the imperial examination year, students from the north and south will come to the capital. The house in Xinmin County is the first choice. I will buy furniture tomorrow, and then ask someone to help look at the house and boil water for cooking."
Yan Ci wiped his face, "I will write a letter to my family when I go back today, asking them to arrange someone to come and look at the house."
Wang Xuecheng also planned to call someone from home. Just thinking about the situation at home made him feel big.
If the family knew that he secretly bought a house, they would not know how many conflicts would arise.
Wang Xuecheng has an ostrich mentality, so I won't think about it for now.
He and Yanci are busy with the formalities.
Chen Zhuangshi took Yang Ji, walked to the side, and whispered: "I wonder what arrangements your wife will make for Brother Yang?"
A few days ago, the two went to Xiaozhu to meet Madam Zhao.
Yang Ji is fairly familiar with Madam Zhao and has met several times many years ago.
Chen Zhuangshi met for the first time, and he was too nervous.
The two walked into the study to talk, and they didn't know what the other party was talking about.
Chen Zhuangshi held back for a few days and finally spoke today.
Yang Ji asked Chen Zhuangshi, "What arrangements does Madam have for you?"
Chen Zhuangshi smiled secretly, "Madam gave me a sum of money and asked me if I would like to be the editor-in-chief of "Shanhe College Newspaper"."
Yang Ji asked him: "Did you agree?"
Chen Zhuangshi opened his eyes and smiled, "Of course I have to agree. How can I refuse such a good opportunity. I'm not as talented as Brother Yang, and there are still ten years away from me.
I first went to the "Shanhe College Newspaper" to experience the experience, there will be a place for me to express my passion. Brother Yang, please support and contribute more. Well, let me ask you three drafts first. "
Yang Ji said: "You can write the manuscript yourself."
Chen Zhuangshi looked disgusted, "Brother Yang, don't be so serious. You haven't told me what arrangements Madam has for you."
Yang Ji said lightly: "My wife's arrangements for me will not be finalized until the end of the imperial examination next year."
"So, Madam wants to support you as an official?"
Chen Zhuangshi is indeed very keen. Yang Ji guessed the truth without revealing a word.
Yang Ji did not deny, "Almost."
"With Brother Yang's talent, next year's imperial examinations will definitely be fine. When you get admitted to the Imperial Academy, you should enter the Imperial Academy. Isn't it not appropriate for your wife to arrange you to be an official? If you don't pass the Imperial Academy, you are a scholar of the Imperial Academy. ."
Yang Ji glanced at Chen Zhuangshi, "So I'm still thinking about it."
Chen Zhuang is too curious, "Brother Yang, can you disclose, where does Madam arrange for you to be an official?"
Yang Ji looked at the surrounding environment, then pointed to the ground.
Chen Zhuangshi was a little confused, "Brother Yang, what do you mean by pointing to the ground?"
Yang Ji said nothing.
Chen Zhuangshi reacted violently, lowered his voice and asked excitedly: "You mean, Madam arranged for you to be the magistrate of Xinmin County?"
Yang Ji nodded, "Don't say anything."
Chen Zhuangshi nodded again and again, "I understand, I understand. My mouth is so tight that no one can pry it open. Brother Yang doesn't know. You don't need to worry that I will say it. Madam really values ​​Brother Yang, and she intends to take the most important thing. Xinmin County is in your hands."
Yang Ji frowned slightly, "I haven't thought about it yet. I'll talk about it after I will try next year."
Chen Zhuangshi patted him on the shoulder, "This matter must be carefully considered and no decision can be made lightly. Guess where will Master Gu be transferred after he resigns as the magistrate of Xinmin County?"
"I do not know!"
"Master Gu is also a precedent for appointing people to be an official. He will serve for three consecutive terms and will continue to be an official in the future. It is really a role model for my generation."
Yang Ji said,
Don’t forget that Master Gu can serve as an official as an official. That’s because he has someone in the court and cannot do without Madam Zhao’s support. If there is no Madam Zhao, he can only live in the household department. A ninth-level official."
"Moreover, he is still your majesty's nephew and son-in-law. With this status alone, he has surpassed me ten times a hundred times." Chen Zhuangshi made no secret of his envy.
Yang Ji smiled, "Princess Huyang can't deal with it. Brother Chen has heard of her reputation."
"Hahaha... of course I've heard of it. A kid I know, Khaosanhe College, has repeatedly failed the exam. Now he has made the noodles of Huyang County lord and eats fragrant and spicy dishes every day."
