Chapter 80 Excellent Feng Shui!
The young lady gently stroked her hair, with a smile in the corners of her eyes, and her petal-like lips slightly opened: "Yes, every brick and tile of this house is unique." As she spoke, the curve of her neck was elegant, and her skin was like white jade, making people unable to help but take a second look.
"Please take a look, this house is not only spacious, but also has a unique layout and excellent feng shui!" The man, who was about 30 years old, smiled and introduced enthusiastically, "To the north is the prosperous West Market, as well as Jinglong Temple and Chongfu Temple; to the west are Ximing Temple and Chongsheng Temple, and it is only a few steps away from Jingzhao Prefecture. The public security here is also one of the best in the entire Chang'an City!"
In this mansion that had just been rebuilt two years ago, the man talked nonstop, and Xu Luo listened with great interest, secretly delighted. He was quite satisfied with the size and layout of this mansion, not to mention that everything was brand new, not far from Suzaku Street, and surrounded by many temples, so it was naturally safe.
At this time, Xu Luo turned his head to look at Han Xier, only to see a trace of worry between her brows. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Xier, what do you think of this house?"
Han Xier bit her lips gently, her skin as delicate as jade. She said hesitantly, "Brother, this place is good, but I'm afraid it will be expensive. Let's go back and think about it first."
Although Han Xier was a girl, she was thoughtful and her bright eyes seemed to be able to see through all the vanity. When she lowered her head in thought, people could not help but notice her slender neck and the vaguely visible collarbone, which made people feel pity for her.
Xu Luo has been doing purchasing on behalf of others for the past two months, and his wallet has become fatter. However, his sensible sister has always been frugal. Even if she is tempted to buy the house, she is also thinking about saving money for her brother's wedding. How could Xu Luo not know her thoughts? As expected, as soon as his sister stepped into the house, the unconcealed surprise overflowed from her eyes, and her lips slightly opened, as if she was deeply attracted by the charm of the house.
Seeing this, Xu Luo couldn't help but laugh and said, "Boss, it seems like this house has changed owners a lot, right? It hasn't been renovated for a few years, right?" He paused deliberately, "Is there something behind this?"
Upon hearing this, the seller's face suddenly changed, and he waved his hands to explain: "No, no, you misunderstood! This house is indeed new, just over two years old. It's just that my family fell into poverty, so I had no choice but to..."
Xu Luo's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he interrupted the seller: "Come on, I won't beat around the bush with you. I really want to buy it, so give me a real price, don't use those empty words like 30,000 or 50,000. I won't fall for that."
At this time, the younger sister gently pulled the corner of Xu Luo's clothes, and her bright eyes seemed to say, "Brother, I really like this house."
Xu Luo now had a clear idea in his mind and became even more determined to buy the house.
"Hey, boss, tell me the truth, what's your lowest price?" Xu Luo asked with a half-smile while looking at the house. "If I think it's suitable, I'll pay for it immediately. If not, I'll turn around and leave without any further ado." He raised his eyebrows, and a cynical smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Chang'an City is big, and it doesn't need a family like yours. I can just go somewhere else for a stroll."
This house was the best in terms of area, craftsmanship, and location. It only cost 35,000 yuan, so it was really worth the money. The large courtyard with four entrances, rockery, and a small river was perfect for feng shui, which was big enough for him and his sister to live in.
"How can you buy something without bargaining?" Xu Luo raised his eyebrows, looking relaxed. The host frowned, showing a bit of hesitation on his face. After thinking for a long time, he finally made up his mind, "Since you really want it, I will sell it to you at a loss! Twenty-eight thousand coins, if you think it's suitable, we will sign the contract today!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he stomped his foot as if he had made a great decision.
Hearing this, Xu Luo's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he nodded and smiled, "Deal! The boss is straightforward enough, and I won't procrastinate."
After a series of formalities, the house and land deeds changed hands, Xu Luo's wallet became lighter, and the house became the property of the Han family. His sister frowned in pain as she watched the large sum of money change hands, but her eyes unconsciously revealed her longing for the new home.
As for the house, it was indeed nice, especially in the afterglow of the setting sun, next to the rockery, Xu Luo's sister brushed the hair by her ear, a sly light flashed in her eyes, her chest rose and fell slightly with a smile, and even her waist seemed to say: "This place is worth buying!"
Xu Luo was strolling around the new house with great satisfaction. When he turned around, he saw Niu Dahu's honest face full of envy. He raised his lips and remembered a joke circulating in the village, saying that someone picked up silver but mistook it for iron and threw it into the river. So he patted Niu Dahu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Dahu, if you are the one who picked up the silver, I am the one who threw it into the river. Don't envy me, maybe one day I will 'throw' it too."
"Da Hu, I won't go with you. You take Xier back to the village first. This money will be your thank you gift. Remember, on the sixth day of next month, in Lantian County, don't forget!" Xu Luo's words were full of sarcasm.
Niu Dahu chuckled and shook his head: "Brother Han, what are you talking about? You want a reward for doing a small favor. Isn't this going to be laughed at by the villagers? Don't worry, leave Xi'er to me. I will make sure she is safely sent home."
Xu Luo nodded with satisfaction. At this time, Han Xier had already got into the car. Her eyes moved, and she seemed reluctant to leave the new house. Her eyes seemed to be able to speak, making people want to promise more.
Niu Dahu drove the carriage and gradually disappeared in Han Xier's sight. Xu Luo looked at the direction where the carriage disappeared, smiled gently, turned around and strolled around the new house for a while. Finally, he locked the door and walked leisurely to his fortune-telling stall.
However, he didn't know that Emperor Li II happened to be at Changsun's mansion at this time, and an unexpected drama was quietly unfolding.
Inside, Jian was holding a cup, glancing at Xiaoyu with a sidelong glance, and said jokingly: "Meng, how come you are free today? I heard that Duke Qi was not feeling well, so I came to visit him. Look, he really looks haggard, maybe he was too busy to leave last night." Changsun Wuji was stunned, he was still confused, he was dragged here so early in the morning, his mind was a mess. Usually in front of His Majesty Li II, he was always respectfully called Assistant, but today he was suddenly called Duke Qi, and this change of address made him feel a little strange.
At this time, when His Majesty Li II mentioned Mr. Han, his tone suddenly changed, and he was furious. He slammed the cup on the table, and the tea splashed everywhere. The angry look made Changsun Wuji's heart tighten. He was confused about Mr. Han's affairs. He just drank a few cups with Lao Cheng last night, so how could he be related to Mr. Han? Seeing the angry look of His Majesty Li II, he didn't dare to ask more, and his heart was full of uneasiness.
