Mu Rousang tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said: ”There's no rush, although the manor has been sold to my house, whether or not those manor owners will listen to me, will have to wait for Wangfu-Tzu to bring Fu Rong and Fu An over.”
Aunt Liu thought about it and felt that it was not urgent. She could only wait for Wang Cai to come over and discuss it.
Peach red, plum white, smoke like a brocade.
Mu Jinzhi took the chance to look for Zuo Renyou one day when Mu Xiu and heard that his nephew was coming over. Zuo Renyou who was in the midst of splashing ink all over the place put down the brush in his hand, reached out and stroked his goatee, asking: ”Today's Mu Xiu? If I don't go and play with your classmates, are you looking for me for something? ”
Mu Jinzhi hurriedly paid respects to him, and then spontaneously found a chair to sit on, and said: ”Initially, I shouldn't have disturbed Uncle because of such a small matter, but since I've been in the capital for a few months, I've asked my classmates about it, just that I haven't been able to find a suitable house.”
Zuo Renyou thought for a moment, then said: ”It was originally for this, do not be anxious, this matter needs to be investigated slowly, even the officials that are released, will not sell the house in their hands.”
The house was different from field to field, but it could be saved from drought! Moreover, every inch of land in the capital was worth a lot of money. Thus, most of the houses in the capital had to be left for future generations.
He then asked, ”How much money have you prepared? All of the large mansions in the capital are worth more than a million silver. If there are people at the side, then the smaller ones would be around seven to eight hundred thousand. ”
”However, I advise you not to buy it too far. One of you is not on patrol, so it would be inconvenient for you to attend the morning assembly.”
Although he originally had two hundred and eighty thousand yuan in his possession, it was only used to buy land for Mu Rousang for over seventy thousand yuan. Although last year he spent over a hundred thousand to buy land and sell it to the Western Regions, he managed to earn a few hundred thousand yuan in one go.
”Uncle, do you have a cheaper one? You can be a bit smaller!” Although my nephew has some silver on him, he still needs to leave a portion of it for my sister to use as a dowry. ”
He planned to give Mu Rousang more antiques. Zuo Renyou looked at him, then picked up the wolf pen and started writing on the xuan paper, and said: ”Don't worry about the dowry of Sang girl, we already have the farm, shop, and courtyard. From what she said, the top grade wood for making furniture, they've also called for servants to deliver it to the capital.
After hearing what he said, Mu Jinzhi suddenly felt that he did not need to spend much silver. Originally, he had partnered with Yang Zixuan and Su Duan Rui to form a bandit's nest, and there were a lot of antiques inside, but Mu Rousang found some of them too big to fit into the box, and only picked a pair of vase with cracked ears, the rest were used to store the boxes, such as smoke furnaces, wind lamps and so on.
”Yes. In the past, he had already collected two to three solo books and also obtained a picture of the Qing lotus in the Jin Dynasty! ”Originally, the family had quite a bit of fur, and at that time, they would have to marry her. In that case, all we would need to do is to find some good fur and some antiques.”
Mu Jinzhi knew that Mu Rousang was not lacking in jewelry, and that she had several fighting pearls in her hands. The two siblings had already discussed this earlier, so they could consider it as marrying each other.
”Yes, I remember a family living in Cat's Lane. That person was your father for a long time, and in the past, he only had one daughter. Now that he has become an official with his son-in-law, he wants to sell the mansion in the capital and return to his hometown.”
Mu Jinzhi quickly stood up and bowed, then said: ”Thank you uncle for worrying about my nephew.”
He could only find Zuo Renyou after thinking about it. If he was still lacking something, he could try to borrow some money to use it.
Zuo Renyou received his salute, and said: ”Once you enter Office of the Crown Prince, you will no longer focus on the eight pieces of paper, but you must not forget about the Six Arts of a gentleman, as small details can often decide one thing.”
It was only because he had learned these two techniques before, and seeing how Mu Jinzhi's reply was extremely fluent, that he said: ”Xian'er has always had a good temper, and with you watching by the side, in these past few years, he has changed quite a bit. When he's been working in Office of the Crown Prince for a few more years, I can finally be at ease. You are more stable than your peers, but you are too cautious and do not like to interact with different people. In the future, you will go out with Xian'er to have some fun, and after three years, I believe you will have another achievement for you! ”
”Thank you for your advice, uncle. I've been taught a lesson!” Mu Jinzhi replied very sincerely.
Seeing that he understood, Zuo Renyou waved his hand to indicate him to go down, and continued to pick up the poem he wrote just now, and continued to read it.
When Mu Jinzhi came out of his room, he saw Yan Mo pacing back and forth in front of the entrance of the study room, and Shi Shu was also accompanying him.
His heart stirred as he anxiously walked to the entrance of the courtyard and asked: ”Yan Mo, didn't I ask you to go out and investigate?”
Seeing him come out, Yan Mo said happily: ”Young Master, it's done!”
Mu Jinzhi looked around and muttered: ”Let's go back to the house first!” The slightly upturned corner of his mouth betrayed his current mood.
He brought the two of them and quickly returned to his own courtyard. Seeing that there was an old granny sweeping the courtyard, he gave her a look and said: ”Shi Shu, Yan Mo and I will bring out the books from the study and you can bask in them.”
