Chapter 193 Issued [1000 starting coins for Beishan Yeyu

There is no airtight wall in the world. The news that Wei Young took out the jewelry and asked Fu Yao to buy a house quietly spread in the palace.

After Meiren found out, Weiyang was given a scolding.

It's good that she is a princess, it's good that she lives in a palace, and she's well-dressed and well-fed. But her wealth is also limited.

People in the palace also need to be careful with their budgets. In the case of poppies, there are monthly regulations, rewards from the emperor, and subsidies from the natal family. Apart from these, there is really nothing else.

Besides the emperor himself, who can truly be rich all over the world?

Wei Young's jewels were only exchanged for ten houses. Poppy thought it was unbelievable. In the future, Wei Young would have nothing to offer, so how could he win people's hearts? If he didn't have one or two confidants around him, he would definitely be bullied.

On this day, Poppy taught Wei Young a lot of ways to live in the palace. As for whether Wei Young listened to it, she didn't know.

On the other hand, the other beauties in the palace came to see Poppy with a smile on their faces. They talked a little bit about Wei Young's purchase of a house, and made some mockery of her.

The poppy sent them away with a sigh of relief, then called Weiyang over and said, "Did you see it? Whether it's the palace or the home of a powerful person, this kind of fight is happening all the time. People like you, who care about your head,

If we don’t care about the end, we don’t care about the future, what will we do in the future?”

Wei Yang could only smile bitterly and said: "I will keep it in mind and I will never dare to do this again."

Poppy sighed and suddenly asked: "Where is Fu Yao? Why don't you see him?"

Weiyang shook her head: "I don't know either."

Fu Yao was beating a young eunuch: "Let you eavesdrop, let you inform, and make you bold."

The young eunuch had been beaten as hard as a pig's head. He confessed, begged for mercy, and praised: "Young Master has been eating steamed buns all day long. He is really strong and powerful."

…………

As the number of powerful people increased, the post house gradually became crowded.

These people are used to being domineering in their hometown, and they always feel uncomfortable in the post house.

Finally, someone thought about buying a house. But the price of this house in Xianyang City is really prohibitive.

It's not that they can't afford so much money, they just think... is this house really worth so much? They won't be taken advantage of, right?

At the same time, Li Shui suddenly gave the sign holder an order: "The house will be increased by one yi of gold per acre."

After the powerful men received the news, they became even more hesitant.

As a result, the price increased by another yi the next day.

On the third day, it rose again...

Finally, a powerful man could no longer sit still and bought a house. The price was 80 yi per acre.

This price is considered cheap among residential houses.

Someone bought the house, and it was like a hole was dug in the embankment, and the flood surged out. The remaining powerful people took action one after another.

Most of Lishui's houses cost one hundred yi per acre, and most of them were sold within a few days.

The courtiers in Xianyang City were dumbfounded. Are these tycoons from the six countries all mentally retarded? Do they also buy a house with a hundred yi and an acre?

Not long ago, these houses were worth only ten yin an acre.

The courtiers who sold the houses to Lishui were all beating their chests. If these houses were still in their hands, it would be a huge fortune.

They felt a lot of pain in their hearts and it was unbearable.

Some people began to regret that if they had redeemed the house at the court for fifteen yi per acre, even if they suffered some losses for a while, they have already made back their money.

It's a pity...it's too late to say anything.

The courtiers suddenly discovered that among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, apart from Li Shui, the richest man was Chunyu Yue. And the secret of Chunyu Yue's wealth was also very simple, that is, he did nothing.

Chunyu Yue was also shocked, but he quickly recovered from the shock and began to preach that a gentleman is as peaceful as a mountain, that I am good at cultivating my awe-inspiring spirit, and that if I keep my body upright, God will help me.

This rhetoric actually attracted many courtiers, who expressed their willingness to join Chunyu Yue's family and join Confucianism from then on.

Chunyu Yue was very happy and accepted these people as his disciples.

Li Shui is very happy these days, after all, he has made a lot of money.

Chunyu Yue was also very happy, after all, Confucianism was promoted.

Chun Yuyue's disciples are also very happy. Since Zhao Gao fell, they have been thinking of ways to seek refuge with Chun Yuyue, and today they finally realized their dream...

But Li Xin was not happy. Ever since the house in Xianyang City was sold for a sky-high price of two hundred yi of gold per acre, he no longer had the courage to show up at his door.

In Mrs. Li's view, Li Xin was simply the biggest prodigal son of the Li family in a century.

Li Xin has looked for Li Shui many times, but every time Li Shui asked Shen to calm down and wait.

Li Xin said helplessly: "Why wait? Now all the powerful people in Xianyang City have bought houses. The remaining houses cannot be sold."

Li Shui smiled slightly and said: "Brother Li, think about it carefully. Are all the powerful people from the six countries really here?"

Li Xin thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid not necessarily."

Li Shui said: "That's right. Those who came first must be less powerful and less courageous. When I saw the imperial court using both soft and hard tactics, I couldn't help it."

"These people don't have much money. Even if they are willing to spend a lot of money to buy a house, we can't make much money."

Li Xin looked at the gold in the room, and he was a little puzzled. Isn't this too much?

Li Shui added: "If it goes as expected, in the next month, those powerful tycoons will come. They don't dare to rebel, and they want to get extra points for the imperial examination. They also saw those small tycoons entering Xianyang City.

He was not killed. So he felt relieved and made sure it was not a trap."

"These people have more servants and more money. They are even less likely to live in a posthouse in Xianyang City. They can only buy houses. But the houses in the city have been sold out, and the courtiers have no extra money. What should I do?"

Li Xin hesitated for a moment and said, "Buy...outside the city?"

Li Shui nodded: "Yes, we can only buy those outside the city. By then, Brother Li's houses will come in handy."

Li Xin's eyes suddenly lit up, but he said hesitantly: "However, the price of the houses outside the city will probably be lower, right?"

Li Shui said: "It doesn't matter if it's lower. Houses outside the city are often larger. Overall, we earn more."

Li Xin nodded in agreement.

Sure enough, the second wave of powerful people began to enter Xianyang one after another.

The courtiers couldn't hold it in any longer. Although they no longer had houses, they still had fertile farmland outside the city. If they built houses on the farmland and sold them to powerful men, wouldn't they be able to make a fortune?

But they soon discovered that Huaiguzi, that bastard, had already suggested to the emperor to inspect the land and ordered that no residential buildings be allowed to occupy cultivated land.

For a time, the courtiers were extremely depressed. Many people began to drink to drown their sorrows.

Wang Laoshi was sitting in the wine shop, looking at the recent account books and thinking deeply: House prices are getting higher and higher, and the sales of fairy wine are getting better and better? Is there a relationship between the two? It's really puzzling.

The sales of houses outside the city are very good. After all, the previous wealthy people have already bought high-priced houses in the city. The new group of wealthy people have gained experience and quickly accepted all this.

Li Xin, who was originally poor, suddenly became richer.

On this day, he rode a tall horse and returned to the mansion triumphantly.

Mrs. Li was surprised when she heard that Li Xin was back. She had not seen Li Xin for some time, and she felt a little regretful in her heart. She felt that she was usually too harsh.

Now that Li Xin suddenly came back, Mrs. Li was so happy that she had long forgotten about the quarrel with him.

If you want to sell the house, just sell it. Anyway, the Li family is not short of money, and it would be best if the family can be reunited.

Mrs. Li thought silently in her heart.

Li Xin strode into the house. After meeting Mrs. Li, he laughed and said, "Madam, do you still want to hit me?"

Mrs. Li said: "No need, I'm too lazy to hit you."

Unexpectedly, Li Xin gave a low laugh and said: "Let's beat him, Li Jia, help my wife get the whip."

Mrs. Li became angry immediately. This Li Xin was really arrogant. He didn't even care about his past grievances, but he was still here making a fool of himself.

Mrs. Li nodded and said, "Okay, since General Li has made a request, I will satisfy you."

Mrs. Li took the whip and gave Li Xin a hard whip on the back.

Li Xin didn't change his expression and said with a smile: "It seems that the strength is not strong enough."

Mrs. Li rounded her arms in annoyance and whipped her whip again.

Li Xin picked his ears nonchalantly.

At this time, Mrs. Li suddenly felt something was wrong with her touch, so she walked to Li Xin, touched his back, and knocked again.

A metallic sound suddenly came from Li Xin's back.

Li Xin chuckled: "Finally discovered it?"

He took off his robe, revealing the shining golden armor underneath.

This object was so dazzling in the sunlight that it almost blinded Mrs. Li.

Li Xin took off his armor and said proudly: "It's made of gold."

Then, he pulled out a sword from his waist: "It's also made of gold."

Li Xin took off his boots and made a muffled sound: "Made of gold."

He waved again, and three cows panted and pulled a car over.

Li Xin said with a smile: "This car is also made of gold. The craftsman of Shangjun Courtyard spent several days and nights making it."

Mrs. Li's lips moved.

Li Xin said proudly: "Don't admire me. My husband is just a bit discerning. I sold my house that day, got the capital, and made a business with Brother Huai."

Mrs. Li's lips moved again.

Li Xin asked in confusion: "What did you say?"

Mrs. Li said: "Golden chariot, golden sword, golden armor. Aren't you... afraid of overstepping your bounds?"

Li Xin was startled. He quickly found a sledgehammer and smashed all these things into gold cakes with three strokes.
