Abduct a scholar to farm together

"What kind of house do you want, I will recommend it to you directly, so that you don't have to go too far, right?" The shopkeeper turned his head while walking, looking at Ji Haitang and Shen Muqi.

Ji Haitang nodded, that would indeed save a lot of trouble.

"I want a bigger one, which can accommodate about [-] people, as long as there is a study room!" Shen Muqi didn't have too many requirements, he needed a study room where he could study with peace of mind.

Ji Haitang thought for a while and said, "Hmm... it's a little closer to the street, a place that's easy to come and go, and the decorations shouldn't be too gorgeous!"

Although Ji Haitang is not a so-called literati, she likes simplicity and cleanliness, and doesn't like being too gorgeous. In her opinion, the so-called gorgeous surface is corrupt inside.

"I will recommend three places for you, and these three houses are more suitable for your requirements!" The shopkeeper saw that Ji Haitang and the two had no other requirements, and suddenly felt that his business was doing a lot better, and he smiled as he said. Like a flower.

"Speak!" Ji Haitang said.

"This first house is a house next to the main street. The original owner is eager to go to the capital, and the price should be cheaper!"

"The main street... people come and go, I'm afraid it's too noisy." Shen Muqi said, Ji Haitang nodded, agreeing with what Shen Muqi said.

The shopkeeper You continued to introduce: "There is something a little farther away, the price is a little more expensive, and all other utensils are available!"

"Is there another school?" Ji Haitang didn't rush to make a decision, but asked again.

"There is another one on Chaoyang Street, the yard is spacious, and it is the same as the one above. It has everything you need, and the price is about the same as the previous two!" said the shopkeeper.

"Oh? Go and see!"

Chaoyang Street is a fork of the main street. Most of the people living there are people of some status, and ordinary people cannot go there. Because there are more nobles there, the law and order is better than other places. Not to mention, it was as quiet as a dead city over there, and no one dared to go there.

Without further ado, the shopkeeper took Ji Haitang and Shen Muqi to Chaoyang Street, and said as he walked, "Out of selfishness, I also recommend you two to sell the house on Chaoyang Street, which is a close friend of mine. Unfortunately, my good friend died unexpectedly in a foreign land, leaving orphans and widows, helpless and living on spare money, and out of helplessness... I had to sell the house Lost!"

"Oh? There are such things, people who can live in Chaoyang Street should be rich." Shen Muqi sighed sympathetically when he first heard about this.

"Well, that friend of mine was originally a Juren, with a wealthy family. He only bought the house a year ago, but... not long after buying the house, I went to Network City with a few friends to visit a poet master. I would like to ask the master of poetry for advice , I imagined that when I encountered bandits on the way, only one of them survived, and I didn't even find the body... Sigh..." A few traces of sadness flashed across the shopkeeper's face, and he slowly explained the incident.

I only lament the bad luck of that person and the impermanence of life.

The atmosphere was suddenly immersed and I didn't know how to continue. Ji Haitang and Shen Muqi were also emotional people, and they were not very capable of being harsh.

Even in Ji Haitang's heart, if a house is really good, even if the price is slightly higher, he would be willing to buy it, and consider it as a good deed, helping the orphans and widows.

Either way, he soon arrived at Chaoyang Street, and in front of the house, there was no mansion with a plaque on it, and the red-painted gate was still shining, as if it was new.The stone lions on both sides are mighty and domineering.

The shopkeeper stepped forward to knock on the door, and soon a haggard-looking woman came out, bowed to the familiar shopkeeper, then turned around, and swept across Ji Haitang and Shen Muqi!

"Sister-in-law Zhang, these two are people who came to see the house!" After the shopkeeper introduced and greeted, he quickly got to the point, introducing like a woman.

"Hi everyone, please go inside and have a look, the price...is negotiable!" The woman forced a smile on her sad face when she heard that it was someone who came to buy the house, and made an invitation with one hand. Gesture, invite Ji Haitang and the two to go in.

Ji Haitang nodded slightly towards the woman, and entered inside with Shen Muqi.

The original owner of this mansion was also a scholar. The mansion is divided into three courtyards, a hall, and even a small bamboo garden. The interior layout is quite neat.Three courtyards, including a main courtyard, a side courtyard, and a guest room!The main courtyard also includes a study, bedroom, and a small kitchen.

These are also necessary for the kitchen, and the furniture has been purchased directly.

Ji Haitang nodded again and again, very satisfied, and Shen Muqi also smiled, obviously very satisfied with this place too!

"This house is very nice. I don't know, how much do you want?" Ji Haitang asked the woman following after seeing the house.

The woman said softly: "It's not expensive to buy this house, it's more than 100 taels, plus decorations and furniture, it's only 300 taels, and I don't want to add anything more, if you want, you can buy it for 300 taels!"

After the woman finished speaking, her eyes were slightly moist, and her mouth was full of bitterness.

Ji Haitang and Shen Muqi looked at each other, and they could see the expression of satisfaction in each other's eyes.

The two of them didn't do any more ink marks, and looked at it carefully, and decided to buy this mansion.

Of course, the shopkeeper likes a straightforward person like Ji Haitang, so he immediately paid the money and delivered the goods with the two of them.

The woman first charged 100 taels and promised to move out within three days!

After the two finished their work, they went back home directly, and as soon as they talked to Liu Shi, they began to slowly pack their things the next day.

Three days later, Ji Haitang went to the mansion again. The woman had already moved away with her son, leaving behind an empty mansion, full of desolation.

Ji Haitang began to add some daily necessities, and took Liu Shi, Wang Shi and Ji Haihai to tidy up the whole mansion.

The original owner of this mansion seldom took care of it after the sudden catastrophe, and many places were already covered with dust and cobwebs.

Several people worked hard for two full days before they were completely packed and moved into their new home. Of course, such a big move could not be hidden from the people in Jijia Village.

In desperation, Ji Haitang had no choice but to hold a banquet on the day of the housewarming, and invited many people. After finishing all these, life will be considered stable.

But this year, I don’t know what happened. The scorching sun and scorching summer suddenly rained heavily for several days. After seeing each other for a day, the next few days were washed by heavy rain.
