Traveling through the ancient times
Chapter 198 Deciding on a Place to Stay in Kyoto
Tianxing had planned to buy himself a place to live before, so he also inquired about the approximate price of a house in Kyoto. Even if the price has increased a little over the past two or three years, it is impossible that it has increased that much!
"Boss, don't think you can bully us just because we are from other places. We have to be sincere in our business talks to make it a success."
Seeing Tianxing say this, the broker was not angry, and said to Nianchuhua with a smile, "Yes, since I brought the young lady out to see the house, I naturally want to make this business with the young lady sincerely.
I see that you are sincere in buying it, but I wonder which place you want to buy it from? Why don’t you give me a price and I will ask the owner to see if they agree.”
Chushulhua didn't know the housing prices in Kyoto, so he nodded to the broker and looked at Tianxing.
Since Tianxing said that, he probably thought the price quoted by the broker was too high.
Tianxing looked at the yamen, "I'll discuss this with my young lady first!"
The agent bowed to Nianchuhua and the others and said, "Yes, I will wait on the side. Please call me after you have discussed it with the young lady."
After the broker finished speaking, he went outside to wait. Tianxing squatted down and whispered to Chu Nianhua, "Miss, I have inquired before. For example, the houses in the north of the city, the one-story house is about 500 to 600 taels, and the two-story house is about 800 taels.
I think the one in the north of the city is at most one thousand taels, and the one in the east is a bit more expensive, so I think one thousand five hundred taels should be about right."
Chushuhua had an idea in mind and wrote down in the notebook, "Which one do you think is better?"
The four maids thought about the pros and cons of the two houses. After a discussion, Hua Ling finally said, "Both houses have their own advantages. It's hard for us to decide. Miss, you should make the decision!"
Chushuhua was also hesitant because she really liked the house in the north of the city, but it was indeed far from the city. Although the layout of the house in the east of the city was not as good as the one in the north of the city, it was in a good location and easy to get in and out.
In the end, Chushouhua decided to bid a price according to what Tianxing said, and buy the one that was closer to their expectations.
Nianchuhua asked Tianxing to tell the broker that the money for the north of the city was 950 taels and the money for the east of the city was 1,400 taels, and asked him to discuss it with the owner.
The broker was stunned when he heard this. Aren't these people from other places? The price they offered was indeed the lowest price for the two houses. Even the locals in Kyoto would not offer this price.
He was thinking that he could get some money from the few people he had painted at the beginning of the year who were from other places, but the other party just offered the lowest price.
The broker pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Miss, the price you offer is really too low. The owner may think you are joking. This is Kyoto City. The house is not cheaper than other places."
"We have also asked around, so feel free to ask. If it doesn't work, we can discuss it again."
"This..." The dentist was still hesitating.
Seeing the dentist's reluctant look, Feishuang stood behind Nianchuhua and said to her casually,
"Miss, we won't be staying in Kyoto for long. The houses here are so expensive, we don't need to buy one. Just let the master arrange a place for you to live. Anyway, we will go back to our hometown after we finish our business."
Chushouhua gave Feishuang an appreciative look, and in front of the dealer, he raised his hand and wrote a sentence slowly, "Let's take a look at the price first. If it's suitable, we'll buy it. If it's too expensive, we can just stay in an inn."
Tianxing said to the broker again, "Just ask for the price my lady gave you. If the price is right, send someone to notify us."
When the broker heard this, he said that Chuchuhua and the others had only come to Kyoto for business, and there was no need to sell the house. Houses in Kyoto were expensive and not everyone could afford them.
This was the first time he had taken a customer to see a house this month. It was so hard to get a customer, so the broker wanted to make the deal happen. So he pretended to be embarrassed and gritted his teeth and agreed, "Yes, I'll go and try to ask."
Nian Chuhua wrote an address to the pawnbroker and asked him to send someone to inform them when he got any news. The pawnbroker nodded in agreement, and Nian Chuhua left the pawnbroker business with her four maids.
The next afternoon, the broker went to Jiang's house in person to find Nian Chuhua and said that the owner of the house in the north of the city agreed to sell it to Nian Chuhua for nine hundred and fifty taels, but the one in the east of the city required a minimum of fifteen hundred taels.
The broker stood at the bottom, bending his waist, and asked, "Miss, where would you like to buy?"
She had her eyebrows raised at the beginning of the year. On her way back yesterday, she asked around in a few more places, and the price they offered was indeed the lowest.
Nianchuhua took out a small notebook and quickly wrote down a paragraph, "Go and tell the owner of the house in the east of the city that I will only offer 1,400 taels. If the deal is successful, I will give you another 10 taels as a reward, and I will also buy the house in the north of the city."
The broker's eyes lit up when he heard this. Even if the house was sold for 1,500 taels, he would not get more than ten taels of silver. Now he only needed to get the owner to agree to sell it for 1,400 taels, and he could get ten more taels of silver.
What's more, Nian Chuhua wanted to buy two houses at once. This was a big deal. The agent agreed happily and ran to bargain for Nian Chuhua.
There is no early rise without profit. If there is profit to be made, the agent will be efficient in doing the work.
Less than an hour after he left, the broker came back and said that the owner agreed to sell the house to Nian Chuhua for 1,400 taels of silver.
Chushunihua asked Tianxing and Huaduo to take the silver and go with the broker to handle the transfer procedures.
They bought two houses together, they lived in one and rented out the other.
Lu Mingqian went to the palace to handle official business for two consecutive days. During these two days, apart from looking at houses, Chu Shuhua was out looking for a doctor to diagnose her pulse.
The doctors all had similar opinions. Some said it couldn't be cured, while others said it should be curable, but they themselves couldn't do it and they needed to find a doctor with better medical skills and more knowledge.
Early in the morning of the third day, Lu Mingqian arrived at the Jiang Mansion. The imperial physician in the palace had been invited by Lu Mingqian to the Third Prince's Mansion.
Lu Mingqian came to take Nian Chuhua to have the imperial physician diagnose her pulse, and Jiang Ruixue also followed them to the Third Prince's Mansion.
These days, Chushunihua has heard too many words that say there is no cure, and she has been able to calmly accept the doctors' diagnosis and treatment results.
But the imperial doctors in the palace were knowledgeable and had seen all kinds of poisons in the palace. If they hadn't cured her, then this would probably have been the end of Chu Nchuhua's life.
So when Chuhua started to draw, he couldn't help but get nervous, and his hands on his legs unconsciously clenched into fists.
Jiang Ruixue noticed that Nianchuhua was tense, so she held Nianchuhua's hand and encouraged her, "Don't be nervous, there must be a way."
Nian Chuhua curled her lips into a smile and nodded to Jiang Ruixue.
The imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau took turns to be on duty in the palace. Lu Mingqian was anxious, so he invited all the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau who were not on duty in the palace to the Third Prince's Mansion.
Therefore, the imperial doctors who come to diagnose Nian Shi will be divided into two groups. One group will not be on duty today, and the other group will come tomorrow.
