The happy little days of the Ye family

As soon as Lin Kang left, everyone sat around the table in the hall.

Before Ye Qingqing sat down, he couldn't wait to say:

"I think the first house and this place are both pretty good. Although it's a bit expensive, the location and the house itself are pretty good."

After speaking, he looked at Mrs. Ye and Ye Xilin expectantly.

Mrs. Ye is the anchor of the Ye family, and Ye Qingqing has liked to ask her for advice since she was a child. As for Ye Xilin, she thinks her brother has good fortune.

As soon as Ye Qingqing finished speaking, Ye Xilin beside him also looked excited:

"Sister, I think so too. I think the first residence is quite suitable for your family. As for this place, it is just reserved for my eldest brother to do business in the future."

But when he thought that these two houses cost more than five hundred taels, Ye Xilin felt a little distressed.

Thinking that the money he had saved for 20 years was only more than taels in total, he could not afford any of the houses here.

Alas, you still have to work hard to make money.

Mrs. Ye cleared her throat, and then analyzed the two houses for everyone:

"The house on Xinghua Lane is not far from North Street. It's quiet in the middle of the hustle and bustle. It's one of the better-located houses in the county. It's good for self-occupation or rent collection."

"The land deed of the house is the size of a 9-cent lot, with 6 main rooms, 8 side rooms and two wing rooms. It was only built six or seven years ago, and it looks like new. The price of 520 taels is quite suitable. "

Ye Xilin winked at Ye Qingqing and smiled:

"I just took a closer look. Although the government has confiscated all the valuables, in such a big house, there are always things that slip through the net."

The skinny camel was bigger than the horse, and the two siblings smiled tacitly.

Ye Donglin on the side also said cheerfully:

"The pots of orchids by the hall are also good things. They are probably worth a few taels of silver if sold. But don't throw away these flowers."

Ye Donglin felt that these flowers and plants were not easy to take care of. Instead of keeping them until they died, it was better to sell them and get some money back.

"Those pots of weed-like things are so valuable." Ye Qingqing's eyes widened, and he really couldn't figure out what was so good about these things.

But when he thought that he could sell it for several taels of silver, Ye Qingqing's eyes turned into crescent moons when he smiled, and he suddenly felt that these orchids were quite beautiful.

When Tang Shan and Tang Xiaojing looked at houses, they chose the first house.

I thought it was a bit expensive at first, but now after hearing what everyone said, I think this house is indeed quite good, and it’s not a bad idea to buy it.

Mrs. Ye looked at the three chattering people and continued with a smile:

"This house now costs 550 taels. According to the land deed, it is the size of an eighth of the land. There are two shops, one large and one small, in the front. The house in the back is not too small either."

"The most important thing is that it is close to the academy and in the alley. It is good to continue to open a grocery store. Although this house was built more than 10 years ago, it is well preserved. It is a bit expensive, but the location is really good. There’s nothing to say.”

"This is just right. My family bought a third house for business, and we want the first house here." Ye Qingqing divided the two houses at once.

Tang Shan lightly punched Father Ye's shoulder, "This house is similar to a grocery store in town. It's really suitable for your family. It's perfect for bringing business to the county."

The two houses happened to be one for each family, so there was no need to rob them, and everyone was happy.

Ye Donglin smiled and said, "I think so. The shop in front can continue to be a grocery store. In two years, the younger generations of the family will come to study here in the academy. I can open a grocery store here while taking care of these kids."

"Brother, you are so smart."

Ye Qingqing thinks this is good, and Chenchen will also send it to Qingsong Academy in the future, just so that her parents can help take care of it.

Lin Kang came back with steaming meat buns, and the two families had already discussed it.

The Ye family wants a house with a front bunk and a back house near the academy, while the Tang family wants a house near North Street.

Although the prices of houses sealed by the government cannot be bargained, the prices are about half percent cheaper than those on the market. Overall, they are still a good deal.

Tax silver, red deeds and dental shop commissions all add up to a lot of money. The Tang family spent a total of 550 taels of silver, and the Ye family spent a total of 580 taels of silver.

After coming out of the Yamen, Ye's father and Ye Qingqing had already obtained the house deed and the key to the door. The father and daughter could not suppress the smiles on their faces.

When we went back, everyone was very excited. Their family had another house in the county.

As a result, the Tang family had three houses in the county. Tangshan was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. He felt that there must be smoke coming out of the family's ancestral tomb.

I'm thinking of burning some paper money for my ancestors tomorrow.

As for Ye Qingqing and Tang Xiaojing, they were discussing how to go treasure hunting at the mansion tomorrow.

"Mr., bring some more sacks over tomorrow and ask for new ones."

"Okay, okay, I happen to have a few newly bought sacks at home. I'll take them all over tomorrow." Tang Xiaojing was also looking forward to it.

On the side of the Ye family's donkey cart, it was even more lively.

Father Ye and Ye Donglin were discussing what to do with the first two shops.

"Dad, do you think I should use the two front shops now, or rent them out first and open a grocery store later?"

"The house has been bought. I think you might as well move the grocery store to the county as soon as possible. In two years, your business will be firmly established and you will be free to take care of the younger generation at home."

Once this grocery store is launched, it must take a lot of effort to run it. It will definitely be busy at the beginning.

Ye Donglin nodded, "Yes, it would be better to spread the groceries to the county earlier."

As for Mrs. Ye and Ye Xilin, the grandparents and grandchildren were discussing which room to start the treasure hunt from tomorrow.

When the group returned home, it was already dark.

Wang Chunyu and Li Guoer had already prepared the meals, thinking that no one in the Tang family would cook, so they made more.

Seeing that the people who had gone to the county hadn't come back yet, the two of them helped the little ones at home eat their meals first.

Mr. Ye kept looking at the door. If he had known that he would buy a house today, he would not have gone out today.

Just when Mr. Ye was about to become a husband, an ox cart and a donkey cart came over one after another.

After everyone entered the house, Mr. Ye quickly locked the door.

Before anyone even entered the room, he pulled Old Mrs. Ye's sleeve and asked impatiently:

"How's it going? Did you buy it?"

"I bought it, I bought it all." Old Mrs. Ye said cheerfully, the wrinkles on her face almost bursting into laughter.

After dinner, Ye Qingqing and Tang Xiaojing went back holding their two sleeping children.

At night, the two families rested early, preparing to recharge their batteries and go tidy up the newly purchased house early in the morning.
