Chapter 259 Buying a House

The heavy rain lasted for a whole month.

This "flood season" was more violent than last year, and there were very few sunny days. Because the rain fell too much and too fast, many streets in Xiaxu were flooded.

Including where Zhang Yuan lived.

But to his surprise, local gang members soon came to clean up the garbage blocking the sewer.

The accumulated water was successfully discharged.

This matter may not seem very impressive, but it made Zhang Yuan know that there must be a complete drainage system under this huge ruins city.

It is most likely a masterpiece of the Xia Dynasty!

It was just that after such a long time, with the rainy season coming every year, this drainage system could still function normally, which really surprised him.

After a few days, when the "flood season" came to an end, the heavy rain turned into a continuous drizzle.

And at this time, two uninvited guests suddenly came to visit.

One of them was the dentist of the dental clinic.

The other was a white-haired, haggard old man in a brocade robe.

"Lord Protector."

The broker bowed respectfully to Zhang Yuan and introduced: "This is Mr. Liang from your neighbor's house. I have something important to discuss with you, so I have to come here to visit you."

The old man in brocade robe also bowed to Zhang Yuan: "I am Liang Sansi, and I am honored to meet you, Lord Protector."

Zhang Yuan glanced at him calmly, nodded and said: "Come in."

He has lived here for some time, but he has never had any contact with his neighbor next door.

It can be said that they are strangers.

And judging from the other party's appearance, he must have come here out of necessity.

After asking the two to sit down in the main hall, Zhang Yuan asked directly: "Mr. Liang, what can I do for you?

As the saying goes, no one comes to visit without a reason. Even if it is a neighbor, it is impossible for him to bring a broker to visit.

Mr. Liang swallowed his saliva and told Zhang Yuan all the troubles he encountered.

It turned out that Zhang Yuan's neighbor had offended Wuwei Gate accidentally recently. First, he was bullied by the other party, and then his only son was set up and lost tens of thousands of taels of silver in one breath!

Poor Mr. Liang worked hard all his life, and the family fortune he had accumulated with great difficulty was about to be lost.

But there was no way, he couldn't pay off the debt. This gambling debt must be paid with life.

There is no government in Xiaxu to appeal, and Tianwang Temple will not take care of such things.

Wuwei Gate, Wuwei Gate again!

Zhang Yuan remembered that the original landlord of his house also offended Wuwei Gate and was forced to buy a house.

Then he came to Zhang Yuan for help, and he bought it directly with Taoism.

After that, Wuwei Gate came to the door to cause trouble.

But they were afraid of Zhang Yuan's identity as the guardian of Tianwang Temple, so they let it go.

Unexpectedly, the same thing happened again.

It's outrageous.

This Wuwei Gate is really good at killing pigs!

Zhang Yuan was also convinced.

He couldn't help but ask: "What does Liang Yuan mean?"

Liang Yuan wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and smiled bitterly: "I am about to die, and I really can't protect my family anymore, so I plan to spend money to avoid disaster. ”

He planned to sell all the houses and shops in the city and live a peaceful life.

Just like Jia Chen, the former landlord of Zhang Yuan's house.

"I have heard about Jia Chen, so I came to ask for an audience. I wonder if the guardian is willing to buy my house. If the two houses are connected, the area will be much larger!"

Sell the house to himself?

Zhang Yuan did not expect that the other party would have such an intention.

As for buying the house next door...

He was really tempted.

Zhang Yuan has lived in this house for almost a year, and the space is more than enough for him to live alone.

The only problem is that the yard is not big, which is not very convenient for practicing martial arts, and it is impossible to fully display fists, feet and swordsmanship.

If you can buy the house next door and connect it, it would be really good!

Zhang Yuan asked in a deep voice: "How much do you want to sell it for?"

Liang Yuanwai swallowed his saliva and answered carefully: "Three thousand seven hundred, no, how about three thousand five hundred taels of silver? "

His eyes were full of confusion, fearing that he would offend Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuan pondered for a moment.

The price of three thousand five hundred taels of silver is really not expensive!

Although Xiaxu is located in a remote area, it is the largest city and human settlement within a thousand miles.

The overall situation has remained stable for hundreds of years.

So the housing prices are quite high.

Zhang Yuan will not lose money if he buys it. If he leaves in the future, he can just sell it.

He stood up and said, "Okay, let's go to the Heavenly King Hall to handle the formalities. ”

The transfer of houses, real estate and shops in Xiaxu is handled in Tianwang Hall.

From a certain perspective, Tianwang Hall has assumed some of the power and responsibilities of the government.

In fact, if Zhang Yuan wants to bargain, he can probably bargain down another one or two hundred taels.

But this Liang Yuanwai is already pitiful enough.

There is no need to force him with authority.

He brought the other party and the broker who served as a witness to Tianwang Hall.

Zhang Yuan asked the other party to wait in the outer hall, and he went to find Xuancheng Tianshi.

When they met, Zhang Yuan said directly: "Brother Xuancheng, I want to borrow 3,500 taels of silver from you."

There is no way. If all his savings are added up, it is estimated that he can't even make up 100 taels.

If he doesn't borrow money, how can he buy this house.

Zhang Yuan believes that with his friendship with Xuancheng Tianshi and the latter's identity.

This request will never embarrass the other party.

Heavenly Master Xuancheng didn't even ask why, and answered simply: "Okay."

Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "I'll pay you back within a month."

Xuancheng may not care about three to five thousand taels of silver, but he must make it clear, otherwise it is not the way to be a friend.

The "rainy season" is about to end, and Zhang Yuan plans to go to Taiwu Mountain again.

Hunting rare birds and ferocious beasts, looking for spiritual materials and herbs.

Pay off the debt first, and then save some money for the winter!

Zhang Yuan had previously taken on a long-term mission in the Heavenly King's Palace, so he just happened to do it together.

Master Xuancheng didn't care about the repayment issue.

He sent out a letter, and soon someone delivered the silver that Zhang Yuan needed.

A heavy bag.

With this money, Zhang Yuan successfully completed the house transfer procedures with Liang Yuanwai.

Got the deed to my own house.

Now Zhang Yuan's residence in Xia Xu can be expanded to more than double, which is enough for him to flex his muscles!

Of course, he also owed a lot of debt.

Zhang Yuan didn't care about this.

It would be a joke if a dignified fourth-level warrior was stumped by a mere few thousand taels of silver!

What's more, he is not an ordinary fourth level.

Two days later.

The "rainy season" is completely over, and the sky is clear and cloudless.

Zhang Yuan drew his iron bow, put on his sword, and carried a bag with dry food on his back.

Leaving Xucheng, we once again headed towards the dangerous and unpredictable Taiwu Mountain.

Zhang Yuan has already decided that he will not earn enough four to five thousand taels of silver this time.

He won't end the adventure!
