Chapter 24: Jump off the Building Big Sale

Qingyun Tower is a four-story building with its back against the Bian River and facing the long street, decorated with luxurious decoration. At this time, it was early in the morning, so the door was neglected, the red vermilion gate was tightly closed, and there were few passers-by. Occasionally, a few light women leaning against the railings were charmingly covering their faces and watching the pedestrians, and sometimes they made waves of delicate laughter.

If at night, countless red lanterns are hung high, and there are endless chariots and horses coming and going. Scholars, drinkers, and merchants spend a lot of money here, and sleep in this gentle hometown will be another scene.

It was at this moment that a notice had just been posted, attracting some people to stop.

It turned out that the owner of Zuiyun Tower wanted to sell the hen that laid eggs, which was quite sensational. Pan Ren is a famous iron rooster. It is really strange that such a person would be willing to sell Zuiyun Tower at a low price.

However, there were many people watching, but few people were moved. Until noon, no one came out to inquire. The Pan Ren family guarding before the announcement was also a little impatient, looking listless in the sun.

This was expected. Those who are truly rich will never buy Zuiyun Tower, while those who are a little tempted will have no money. The rich people who spend a lot of money in Bianjing City are mostly rich and noble. What should I do when I set up a brothel? Don’t lose face.

In any era, those who eat pork are called Xiaokang, while those who kill pigs are vulgar activities. By the same token, ** is romantic and unruly. But if you open a brothel, you will naturally be out of style.

There is also a kind of small merchant who doesn’t care about such a status and is also moved, but it’s a bit embarrassing to teach them to spend thousands of stagnants of money within three days.

So although the noise is very loud, it is only a topic of conversation after dinner. The topic of conversation is just a topic of conversation, and it will not help.

On the second day, Pan Ren was a little anxious and posted another notice, even the price was announced, with 3,800 guan. I am afraid that it would be the case if I jumped off the building and sold it.

However, this price is still very popular but not popular. There are many people watching it, but few respondents are accepted.

Pan Ren was a little ruthless. Time was getting closer and closer. If he couldn't get five thousand five hundred coins, everything would be in vain.

On the third day, the notice was posted again, and the price this time became 3500 jin. When Pan Ren made this decision, he beat his chest and stamped his feet, and was reluctant to leave. However, when he thought of the 300 Yang Jie's paintings, he immediately forgot everything.

At noon, a young man finally took a few servants to remove the notice. Pan Ren's servant immediately replied. Pan Ren was overjoyed and hurriedly invited the young man to the mansion in person.

This young master is naturally Zhou Heng. Zhou Heng sat down lazily, closed the fan in his hand, and said, "Three thousand guan, if it is three thousand guan of Zuiyun Tower, I will pay the money immediately. If there is an extra penny, I will turn around and leave."

Pan Ren was already sweating coldly and smiled and invited Zhou Heng to have tea first, but he changed his mind. His Zuiyun Tower was worth at least 4,000 guan. Now this young man only offered 3,000 guan, which was too ruthless.

But Pan Ren had no confidence. Seeing that the three-day period was about to end, he finally came to a customer, but he must not offend him. However, the price of this young master was too dead, which made him a little unwilling to accept it. Pan Ren had been doing business for so long, and what he was best at was observing his expression. He was determined to play Tai Chi with this young master, first look at the wind direction, and not retreating to the point of helplessness, it was absolutely impossible to sell Zuiyun Tower at a low price.

"Please have tea for your son." Pan Ren smiled and personally brought tea to Zhou Heng, very enthusiastic.

Zhou Heng did not drink, and impatiently shook the fan and said, "Is Zuiyun Tower sold? You can say the right thing, I have a lot of things to do and I don't have time to procrastinate with you."

Pan Ren smiled even brighter and hurriedly said, "Sell, sell, but..." Halfway through his words, Zhou Heng wanted to get up and leave, and said, "It's just something? You just need to increase the price, right? Okay, since you are not sincere, then I will leave now." After that, he really stood up and turned around and wanted to leave.

Pan Ren also stood up quickly and was about to stay, Zhou Heng said, "Don't stand up, we have no friendship, and we don't have to send you off. You can sell this Zuiyun Tower to others."

With a few servants, Zhou Heng had no intention of turning back at all and left quickly.

Speaking of which, Pan Ren is famous for being arrogant and can't afford to suffer. But it's really unlucky to meet Master Zhou.

When he was about to leave the threshold, Pan Ren suddenly shouted: "Sell, I will sell it. The young master will stay for only three thousand guan. This Zuiyun Tower will be sold to the young master."

Zhou Heng turned around and laughed: "That's right, Brother Pan is so happy." Zhou Heng turned back to have tea.

Pan Ren had no good expression at this moment. He waved his sleeves and the servants understood and hurriedly removed the tea. Since he had suffered a loss, Pan Ren decided to keep these teas for himself. He said sarcastically: "Go, go to the tea room to cook a pot of hot water to quench the thirst for the young master."

Zhou Heng was very angry, and soon turned angry and said, "Get your house deed and land deeds, let's hand it over now." As he said that, he took out a stack of 'money leads' from his sleeve and placed it on the table, and said with a smile: "Does Brother Pan want to count it?"

The so-called money incense is actually Jiaozi or silver notes. After Emperor Huizong ascended the throne, Jiaoziwu was established, which was considered the earliest paper money. This kind of paper money was originally issued by merchants, and was specially used to carry out cash custody business for merchants carrying huge sums of money. The depositor delivers the cash to the shop, and the shop temporarily fills in the amount of cash deposited by the depositor on the roll made of mulberry paper and then returns it to the depositor. When the depositor withdraws cash, he pays the shop 30 cents of interest every ounce, that is, pays a 3% custody fee.

Pan Ren was so angry that he grabbed the stack of money and counted it in public, and then taught his family to obtain land deeds, house deeds, and delivery diplomas.

After signing the letter and drawing the fingers for verification, Zhou Heng picked up the contract and stuffed it into his arms, and did not be polite to Pan Ren, and took the people away with him.

Although Pan Ren was reluctant to leave, the road was already completed and Zuiyun Tower was sold, so he naturally did not dare to delay any further. He raised 5,500 stagnant of money to lure him, so he took Mr. Xu and a servant out.

Along the way, Pan Ren's eyelids were twitching, and he felt a little worried, and asked Mr. Xu: "Mr. Xu, afterwards, I always feel something is wrong. Why did I catch such a good thing? Besides, I didn't see those 300 paintings of Yang Jie with my own eyes, so there would be no deception."

Mr. Xu did not dare to speak nonsense, but only said: "Students dare not speak nonsense."

Pan Ren sighed and soon gritted his teeth again: "The Zuiyun Tower has been sold, and it's too late to regret it anymore. No matter what, it's all right to bet."

In order to buy Shen Ao's house, he had already lost too much and had cut off his retreat. So even if he had doubts, he still gritted his teeth and tried it.

This is the gambler's psychology. He has already put some money in it, so he is willing to give up easily. It is impossible to let go until he is over.

When he arrived at Chen Ao's house, Mr. Xu went to take a photo of the door. Wu Saner was still the one who opened the door. When Wu Saner saw them, he said, "Sorry, you are one step late."

"It's late?" Pan Ren's face changed suddenly. He rushed up and said angrily: "What? This house has been sold? We have made an appointment, please make it clear."
