Confiscated and exiled, the down-and-out general became the queen
Chapter 376 Viewing a House
After the local doctor examined him, he said that it was simply because the journey was long and his body was a little exhausted, and he would be fine after two days of rest.
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Old Lady Song looked at the people in her room and glanced at Yuanyuan helplessly, "I said I was fine."
After saying that, he looked at Song Ye and the others, "You guys go and do your own things, I'm fine."
Seeing this, Song Ye and the others did not disturb Old Mrs. Song anymore, but went downstairs to pack up their things.
After Abao brought Uncle Xu and the others to the street, he took them to the reliable human trafficker that Ping'an mentioned.
When Uncle Xu saw the name of the store, he probably guessed what Abao was thinking. Thinking of their savings and the tip he had just given them, he thought of going and asking.
After A Bao entered, a man came up to them quickly. He did not dislike their clothes, but smiled and said, "Gentlemen, do you need to sell your bodies?"
A Bao shook his head, took out the token Ping An gave him, and said, "We want to rent a house."
The waiter didn't take it seriously at first, but when he saw that it was the token from the General's Mansion, he was stunned for a moment.
He quickly took it and looked at it. After seeing that it was indeed the token of the General's Mansion, he returned the token to A Bao and said respectfully, "Young man, what kind of house are you looking for?"
When Abao heard this, he turned to look at Uncle Xu. Uncle Xu understood and said, "Let's find a place where we can all stay and the price is more suitable."
The waiter was a smart man. He understood what was said and said quickly, "Sir, here are two houses that are suitable for you. Why don't you go with me to have a look?"
When Uncle Xu heard this, he glanced at A Bao, and seeing him nod, he said, "Then I'll trouble you, little brother."
When the waiter heard this, he quickly waved his hands and said, "I don't deserve it. I don't deserve it."
After saying that, he looked at the things on their backs and said, "Sir, do you want to leave your luggage in the store first?
Don't worry, we have someone here to help you watch over it."
When Uncle Xu heard this, he smiled and said, "Thank you, little brother."
The things they were carrying were all worthless items. If they were left here, no one would probably want them.
Seeing this, the waiter took them to the backyard and when they came to an empty house, he asked them to put their things in. After they came out, he locked the house and handed the key to Uncle Xu.
Uncle Xu was shocked by this operation. He had previously thought that it was just a place to put things, but he didn't expect that it was actually a room.
He was just wondering why there wasn't even a window in the room, so it must have been used to store luggage.
The waiter saw Uncle Xu's expression and knew what he was thinking, so he laughed, "Uncle, this is the specialty of our store.
Our host took into consideration that some people would bring luggage with them when renting the house, so he built a row of small houses in the backyard specifically for storing luggage.”
When Uncle Xu heard this, he exclaimed, "Your boss is very powerful."
The waiter nodded and said, "Yes, our boss is very powerful. You don't know that there are some people who come to the store to store their luggage because it is inconvenient to carry luggage.
Of course, if they don’t live in the house and want to store their luggage, they will charge three cents each time, but if you come to see the house, you don’t have to pay.”
When Chongzi heard this, he asked curiously, "Little brother, how do you know whether the man is renting a house or not to pay the three cents?"
The waiter didn't get angry when he heard this, and explained: "As long as you follow us to see the house, we won't charge you the money.
In other words, even if he really came with us to look at the house just to save those three cents, it doesn’t matter.”
"why?"
At this moment, everyone was looking at the waiter, curiosity in their eyes.
The waiter was used to seeing such looks, so he raised his chest very skillfully, looked at them and said, “Our boss said that as long as you go to see the house, it is worth three cents.
Even if the deal doesn't work out this time, it might work out next time, so don't lose a lot of money just for three cents."
Uncle Xu laughed when he heard this, and said to the waiter, "Your boss is very capable and has a long-term vision."
When the waiter heard this, he nodded happily and started chatting with Uncle Xu and the others.
Along the way, the waiter was asking them what kind of house they wanted, while Chongzi and the others were asking about the situation in Beijing.
Soon, they arrived at the house they wanted to see. The waiter pushed open the door to the yard and began to introduce it, "This is a yard with a total of five rooms. The rooms are a little small, but they are enough for you to live in.
That's the kitchen, and there's a small backyard. I'll show you there."
Uncle Xu and the others followed him to take a look, frowned slightly, and asked, "Brother, how much does this village cost?"
When the waiter heard this, he said, "This room costs twenty taels a month."
Hearing this price, Uncle Xu shook his head and said, "Brother, we can't afford this monthly rent. Is there a lower price?"
After hearing this, the waiter pondered for a while and said, "There are two more places. One is for fifteen taels, and the other is for only five taels, but the environment is not very good."
When Uncle Xu heard the word "five taels", he was slightly stunned and said, "Waiter, can you take us to see the yard where five taels is?"
When A Bao heard this, he wanted to say something, but when he saw Uncle Xu looking at him, he swallowed his words.
The waiter probably understood their situation from the conversation just now, so he nodded and took them to Wuliang's yard.
They walked for nearly half an hour and finally arrived at a place.
The waiter looked at Uncle Xu and said, "Uncle Xu, let me tell you first, this price is already very cheap in Beijing. If it weren't for the bad location, it wouldn't be this low.
If you are not satisfied, you won’t find anything cheaper than this.”
Uncle Xu also asked the grooms and naturally knew the answer, so he nodded and said, "Thank you, young man."
Seeing this, the waiter took them into a small box. They looked around and saw that there were no residents around. They were stunned for a moment but didn't say anything.
Soon, the waiter brought them to a small door.
He took out the key, opened the door, and led them in.
Uncle Xu originally thought it was a very dilapidated courtyard, but when he looked at the small courtyard in front of him, a hint of disbelief flashed in his eyes.
A Bao and the others were all stunned. This yard was very different from what they had imagined.
In front of them were five neatly arranged houses and next to them was a large kitchen. However, the kitchen was simply built and if they went downstairs, rain might blow in.
There was a well next to the kitchen. What surprised them most was that the entire yard was a wasteland except for the place where people walked.
After Uncle Xu finished reading, he looked at the waiter and confirmed, "Brother, is this really five taels of silver a month?"
