Ouyang Bian was uncontrollable and wandered around with the slaves he lent to him by Zhang Qi. Of course, he was not wandering around without any goal. His goal was to find a better house to rent.

Considering that my father will soon be on the court, he will not be too far away from home. It is the best place to find near Xue Mansion. Xue Mansion is next to the imperial city, facing Daxiangguo Temple through Zhuque Street. This is also the place where dignitaries and nobles are the most concentrated.

Of course, you have to find a real estate agent to find a house. The agents of this era are called Zhuang Zhaiyaren.

Fang Ya saw that the person who was leading the charge was a five-year-old child who didn't want to entertain him, so Ouyang Bian directly gave him a reward of money: "I have been shopping with me for three days, and this money is yours."

Fang Ya was very happy. He might not be able to sell a house in a month. This money is equivalent to the commission for selling a house. Now he becomes very enthusiastic and proactive.

"What kind of house do you want to find? Should you rent it or buy it directly?"

Ouyang Bian had already thought about it: "When I get close to the imperial city, my family has six people for the time being. At that time, there must be at least four or five servants to serve, and there must be several guest rooms so that guests can stay temporarily. There are no other ones for the time being. I have to talk about it after reading it."

Fangya is an old man who has been working for many years. He immediately said several things as if he had known each other, which was nearby. Ouyang Bian said he would go and take a look.

Fang Ya immediately arranged a carriage to take Ouyang Bian to see the house. The houses were actually pretty good. After all, they were all luxury houses, and the maintenance and location were very good. The price made Ouyang Bian a little astonished.

There is a saying among the Song people: In the middle of the city, under the double palace, the size, the size, the size, the size, the size, the amount, the amount, the price is the same as the price of gold.

Really, every inch of land is valuable.

Just the few houses Ouyang Bian saw, the ones with lower prices started at 1,000 yuan. If you rent them, you will have to rent them for 40 to 50 yuan per month, and the ones with higher prices are as high as 10,000 yuan. The monthly rent is 40 to 500 yuan. No wonder Ouyang Xiu had to live in a shabby alley, because he not only couldn’t afford a house, but also a good house!

As expected, the best way out is to eat soft rice.

Ouyang Bian was speechless about this. Unexpectedly, his reincarnation skills improved a lot in this life. He still had to worry about the house problem and still had to become a house slave.

When Ouyang Bian returned home, he unexpectedly saw Ouyang Xiu whom he had not seen for many days.

When Ouyang Xiu saw the youngest man, he smiled: "Monkey, come here."

Ouyang Bian showed a look of surprise appropriately, opened his arms and rushed over to hug him. Ouyang Xiu raised Ouyang Bian directly, and the laughter of the father and son attracted Xue.

Xue said angrily: "There is no positive shape all day long!"

Ouyang Xiu smiled and said, "What's wrong with me teasing my little one?"

Ouyang Bian said curiously: "Dad, why did you come back so early today?"

Ouyang Xiu touched Ouyang Bian's hair, turned to Xue and explained: "I took a leave today and planned to find a house. It's not good to bother his uncle here."

Xue nodded: "That's the reason, but our money should not be enough. Let's wait until your salary is down before renting it."

Ouyang Xiu waved his hand: "No, no, my colleagues borrowed me dozens of stakes of money, which should be enough."

Ouyang Xiu felt his sleeves being pulled, and he looked down and saw that it was Ouyang Bian: "What's wrong with the monk?"

"Dad, I've been to see the house these days and found a few very good houses." Ouyang Bian said proudly.

Ouyang Xiu looked at Xue for a moment: "Did you go with your mother?"

Xue shook her head: "I have been busy sorting out the ceremony these days, so how can I get out with him?"

Ouyang Xiu looked at Ouyang Bian.

Ouyang Bian smiled: "Dad, these days, I asked Uncle Zhang to ask a slave to accompany me to see the house. The house is nearby, and there is nothing wrong with it except being more expensive."

Ouyang Xiu exchanged a look with Xue in surprise. Because he had too many questions, he didn't know what to ask.

Ouyang Xiu thought about it: "Monk, I have a question. Why did you go to see a house? Shouldn't you go to school to study?"

Ouyang Bian smiled and patted his chest loudly: "Take your studies slowly. Now the matter of showing our house is the most important thing. Don't worry, my father, you are busy with work, so leave all of this to me. If my father has time today, I will take you to see it."

Ouyang Xiu was skeptical: "Okay, then you can take me to see you. I won't bother with you for the time being when you skip school."

Ouyang Bian was completely unlucky and asked Bizhu to go with him. Xue also wanted to go and see him, so he went with him on the carriage from Xue's mansion.

First, he found Fangya from Yashang. Fangya saw Ouyang Bian bringing a family of people over, thinking that his parents came to him to ask for his usual money, so he was a little panicked. Ouyang Bian used a color with him, which made him calm down.

"Let's go to that small yard to see the one with bamboo." Ouyang Bian said.

Fang Ya nodded quickly: "Okay."

The place is not far away, and it will be arrived in a short while.

Ouyang Xiu and Xue looked at it and it was really good. There were many rooms and more than enough people to live in.

Ouyang Xiu waved to Fangya and came over: "What is the monthly rent here?"

Fang Ya smiled humbly and said, "Sir, the monthly rent here is thirty-four coins..."

Ouyang Xiu and Xue were startled: "So expensive?"

Fang Ya quickly waved his hand: "It's not too much, but it's not too much. The price is already very affordable. You see, the house is 60% new, and you can move in with your bag without decoration. Next to it is Daxiangguo Temple. It's very convenient to buy things. You're very close to you if you want to go to court. If the incoming residents here have been transferred to the place, the place wouldn't be empty."

Ouyang Xiu and Xue went to discuss it, but Fang Ya curled his lips. Such an obvious bargaining routine could scare me?

The couple's children are so old that they have a lot of money to make. They must have a lot of pocket money, so they can't even get more than thirty coins. This behavior must be just bargaining.

Ouyang Xiu took Ouyang Bian aside and scolded, "Is this the house you are looking at?"

Ouyang Bian nodded: "This house is so good, the location is good, the place is big, it is convenient for my father to go to court, it is also convenient for my brothers to go to school, it is convenient for my brothers to go to school, and it is next to me if you want to buy something. We can also go to Daxiangguo Temple to see tricks, life, work and entertainment, it is so great!"

Ouyang Xiu said in his heart: "I don't know that everything is good here yet. You said that there is nothing wrong with being expensive, but this expensive is a big problem!"

Ouyang Xiu pointed his son's forehead with his index finger: "You, you don't know that the food, rice, oil and salt are expensive. Your father's salary adds up to a rent. What do you eat and drink after paying the rent?"

"But this house is very good, there is nothing wrong with it!" Ouyang Bian was anxious and pointed to the quiet courtyard.

Ouyang Xiu smiled and said, "Its fault is that it is expensive!"

Ouyang Bian said seriously: "No, it's not its fault, it's your fault!"

Ouyang Xiu: “…”
