Chapter 1762 Market Price

In the evening, Shuren and his wife chatted after dinner, and Zhulan mentioned Mingjia, "Su Xuan and I mentioned He's family, and Su Xuan said to inquire first."

Zhou Shuren, "The He family."

"how?"

"It's nothing. The He family is not ranked among the upper-class families in the capital. It is considered top-notch among the middle-class families. The children in the family do not have a bad reputation. Overall, they are not bad."

Zhulan, "That's good, I'll wait for the news of Su Xuan's investigation."

Zhou Shuren thought about the grandson Ming Jia, "This child is the quietest among the grandchildren."

"Yeah, and the cutest one."

Zhou Shuren counted the days, "Ms. Dong is about to give birth too."

Zhulan, "We have to wait a few more days."

Zhulan continued to read the stories in the newspaper. In order not to cram her feet temporarily, she did not miss one issue now. When she looked back, she saw that Shuren had already fallen asleep lying on her side.

Looking at the time, it was already getting late, so he put down the newspaper in his hand, and gently pushed Shuren, "Wake up and go back to sleep."

Zhou Shuren opened his eyes and calmed down for a while, "I'm a little tired today."

"It's not so good when you get old."

"Um."

After a simple wash, the couple lay down and fell asleep.

The next day, in his hometown county, Chang Zhong just finished his breakfast when there was a knock on the door of the house. Today, the examinee surnamed Hu came alone.

Changzhong and Minghui looked at each other and asked, "Have you eaten?"

Hu Liang, "I've eaten."

Changzhong asked, "You came here so early to ask questions?"

Hu Liang clasped his palms with his fingertips, and said politely: "The family is poor and can't afford books. Yesterday I saw that the young master brought a lot of books on the table, so Liang came to borrow books boldly."

There was a slight smile on Changzhong's face, and there was no smile in his eyes, "My Zhou family's collection of books is opened once a month. Anyone who is a scholar can go to read the books. Have you ever been there?"

Hu Liang has been there before, and every time he goes, he can't wait to grow his head. He is jealous of the members of the Zhou family, "The Zhou family is righteous."

Changzhong, "I didn't bring any books with me when I came back from the capital. What you see are all the books in the clan."

Hu Liang didn't believe it, why did he come to borrow books? Just because he thought Zhou Hou must have made a point for his youngest son.

Minghui sneered, "You don't believe my brother is telling the truth?"

Hu Liang's face was unnatural, and a sneer made his heart churn, pinching the palm of his hand, why is someone born rich.

Changzhong stood up, "Come and see with me, and you will know whether what I said is true or not."

After reading that the book was indeed collected by the Zhou family, Hu Liang blushed.

Minghui's tone was stinging, "Do you still want to borrow books?"

Hu Liang was already in a dilemma, so he bit his bullet and said, "I want it."

Changzhong, "Which one do you want to borrow and take it yourself, but there is no direct book for Zhongxiucai here."

Hu Liang's mind was exposed, and his fingertips were a little stiff, not daring to look at Zhou Changzhong.

Minghui answered, "Be sure to remember what books to borrow, and don't slander them behind your back because of jealousy. My Zhou family has a clean family and cannot be slandered."

Hu Liang was afraid at this time, the Zhou clan had become a giant in the local area, not only that, the reputation of the Zhou clan was also very good, and the monthly collection of books won the favor of scholars, and if you were puzzled, you could ask Zhou Juren and scholar of the clan.

As long as you sincerely ask for advice, no one in the Zhou family with fame will refuse.

Minghui and the others left, "There are so many things to be careful about."

Changzhong chuckled, "Not all private schools in small places are clean and honest. Each county has a number of places for scholars. The students in private schools are not only classmates but also competitors. You and I came back and took the places. There is nothing to be angry about."

Minghui blinked, "The academies in the capital also have a lot of intrigue, but they are more straightforward."

Academy formations are very straightforward, but private schools in small places have fewer opportunities and more calculations.

Qiu Yandao, the household department in the capital, "The residence of the second prince has been selected."

Zhou Shuren knew, "What do you want to say?"

Qiu Yan smiled: "It's great that the money for the rebuilding went to the emperor's private treasury."

Zhou Shuren also smiled, "It's really good,

The emperor has many private houses. "

When the emperor was the crown prince, he was very hard-working, and his waist became thicker when he succeeded to the throne. He only had a rough guess about the channels of the royal family's money, and one of them made him jealous. The emperor is so rich, of course he is responsible for his son's mansion. .

Qiu Yan whispered: "The second prince's residence is not far from my home."

Zhou Shuren really didn't know where the second prince's residence was chosen. He knew from Changyi that the wedding preparations were going well, and Changyi said that the second prince had a residence.

Qiu Yandao: "The house is not small but not exquisite, the only advantage is that it is big enough."

Zhou Shuren stroked his beard, "The Ministry of Household Affairs still holds down a lot of house deeds."

Qiu Yan, "Well, you said that you are not in a hurry to make a move, and wait until it rises."

The housing prices in this capital city are changing every day, and it has always been an upward trend. Every time the good houses obtained by raiding are not willing to sell.

Zhou Shuren dug out the map of the capital, and found out the deed, "I found a good buyer."

The emperor's sons are not young, and the emperor has inherited quite a few mansions from the overlord, but few are large enough for the prince's mansion.

Qiu Yan, "Huh?"

Zhou Shuren stood up holding the map and deed, "I want to enter the palace."

Qiu Yan, "..."

In the imperial palace, the emperor stared at the map and the deed, "You have been holding on to the deed and not selling it?"

Zhou Shuren, "Well, wait for the price increase."

The emperor flipped through the booklet for registering the house deed speechlessly, and tapped a spot with his fingertips, "Did you keep the house deed that the royal father confiscated the house until now?"

"Only two deeds were not sold."

He kept the best two houses for emergency.

The emperor flicked through the brochure, "You told me that you have no money?"

"This is a family property for emergencies. The capital house not only maintains its value, but also increases its value."

Your Majesty, "...What do you mean by showing me the truth now?"

Zhou Shuren curled his lips, "Is the emperor buying a house? You see, these house deeds are next to each other. As long as they are opened, it will be a prince's mansion."

The emperor said with a cold face, "You are fine."

Sell ​​the house and sell him here!

Zhou Shuren said quietly: "Actually, I can take it apart and sell it. The court knows that there are a lot of house raids under the control of the household department. Many people asked the minister when it will be sold."

The emperor looked at the map of the capital city, worried about having too many children, there are many houses of sufficient size in the capital city, he is not willing to let the courtiers move, the second son gets married, and the third son has to be selected, "Leave me to take a closer look."

Zhou Shuren, "According to the market price."

emperor,"......"

Tomorrow the world is mine!

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was time for the county examination. Ming and Qing were worried about Uncle Chang Zhong and Ming Hui, so they came to the county to sit in the county.

Changzhong and Minghui really didn't have to bear the burden, they both took the exam calmly.

The Zhou family in Beijing also remembered the date, and Li asked, "Mother, I want to go to the temple to pray for my younger brother and Minghui, do you want to go together?"
