Chapter 113 Buying a House
Qibao planned to plant grapes earlier, but he still had to cover it up. These grape saplings also had to have a legitimate origin. People in the village would not be suspicious if there were suddenly so many grape saplings in the house.

After discussing with his grandfather and the others, Qibao planned to buy a yard in the town, use the space to prepare grape seedlings, and then hire someone to bring it back to Xujiacun, so that others would not suspect it.

Just do what you say. After breakfast, Qibao went to town with the old man.

I found a Fang Ya who specialized in introducing people to this business.

This man's name was Jia Ren. When he saw business coming to his door, he asked with a smile on his face: "I wonder what kind of house you are planning to buy? I have a lot of good stuff on hand!"

The old man asked in surprise: "I haven't spoken yet when I came in, how did you know I was here to buy a house?"

Jia Ren said with a smile: "I am in this business, and I am somewhat famous in the town. What else can people do if they don't come to me to buy a house? If someone comes to me to introduce me to a wife, I might be better off than selling a house. Still enthusiastic.”

Qibao wanted to laugh when he heard this, but felt it was rude, because this guy named Jia Ren was really ugly, with a pockmarked face, small eyes, thick lips, and a flat nose. Even if he could make money in this business, he was good-looking. Not even any girl could look down on him, so she really couldn't bear to talk like that.

The old man could only comfort him: "Brother Jia, this person's fate has not come yet, and you can't force it. You will definitely find a good girl who can be diligent and thrifty in the future."

Jia Ren liked hearing such words, and immediately smiled so hard that his small eyes turned into slits, and said: "Thank you, old man, thank you very much, old man. Then I will accept the old man's good advice, and I will press the box in my hand to the bottom of the box." Take out all the good stuff and let the old man choose."

The old man also smiled and said: "Thank you, Brother Jia. I want to find a room with more rooms and a larger yard. I have a lot of family members. Is there anything suitable?"

Jia Ren thought for a while and said, "I really have two sets in my hand that match your description, old man. How about I take you to have a look? It's not far away."

The old man said: "Thank you, Brother Jia."

Jia Ren led the way until he reached the end of the street, turned left into an alley, made two turns, and came to the door of a house. Looking at the door, you can tell that the area inside is not small.

Jia Ren opened the door, and there were concierges on both sides. After passing the concierge, there was a large courtyard, and then there was the housing. There were two rows in total, which was considered a three-entry courtyard.

The old man looked at it and thought it was pretty good. The house looked relatively new. There were many large rooms in the yard, which met his requirements. It was also very clean.

Jia Ren asked: "How is it? If the old man is dissatisfied, there is another courtyard, but it is smaller than this one. It is on the edge of another street and there are more people. How about we go there again? have a look?"

The old man said: "This yard is nice. I wonder what price you plan to sell it for?"

Jia Ren said: "Since the old man came to me to buy a house because he believed in me, then I won't play with those lies. How about 750 taels?"

Qibao thinks the price is not bad. The house is more spacious than the one the Xu family currently lives in, and the furniture is relatively complete. It is also built with blue bricks. The most important thing is that the house is in an alley, where there are few people, and it is not crowded. There were too many people paying attention, which was perfect for her to use as cover.

Seeing that Qibao had no objections, the old man said, "If it works, I want this courtyard!"

Jia Ren was overjoyed and said: "Sure, the old man is a cheerful man. I will go to the Yamen to help you transfer the property. I wonder how to write the name of the owner of this yard?"

The old man said: "This is my little granddaughter's name, Xu Linyue."

Jia Ren was stunned. He had never seen anyone buy a house with his granddaughter's name on it. It seemed that he doted on his granddaughter.

So Jia Ren said with a smile: "Your granddaughter is so lucky to have such a pampering grandfather like you!"

The old man laughed loudly and said: "Brother Jia, you are wrong. I am lucky to have this granddaughter. You don't know, I have six grandchildren in my family, but I only have such a little granddaughter. If not, what is my blessing?" "No wonder it's like this. You guys take a rest here. The Yamen is not far from here. I'll be back as soon as I go." Jia Ren said.

"Okay, then I'll trouble Brother Jia."

After Jia Ren left, the old man asked: "Qibao, why don't we buy a house with a larger yard? There are so many rooms, and the family doesn't live here often. Wouldn't it be too wasteful?"

Qibao said: "It's not a waste at all. The rest of the family don't come to stay often, but my brothers are studying in the town and the eldest brother has to take the exam. It's not good to live in a barbecue restaurant. It's quiet here and suitable for my brothers to study. This is a great place." The yard is also suitable for martial arts training, so it won’t be wasted.”

The old man felt that his granddaughter was thoughtful and just bought it. It’s not like the family doesn’t have the strength to live in it, but it can’t live without it.

But after a while, Jia Ren came back with the house deed.

The old man took the house deed and looked at it. It was his granddaughter's name, so he put it away with a smile, took out 750 taels of silver notes from his arms and handed it to Jia Ren.

Jia Ren took the banknote and congratulated with a smile: "Congratulations to the old man, this yard will be your home from now on. I also wish the old man's family will get better and better, and the wealth will come rolling in in the future."

People in their profession can blurt out kind words without thinking, and the customers will be happy to hear it.

Sure enough, the old man smiled happily when he heard this and said, "Thank you, Brother Jia. I will do business with you if I have the opportunity in the future."

Jia Ren thought that the grandfather and grandson were probably rich people in the family. Although they dressed low-key, they could easily take out more than 700 taels without blinking an eye.

"Okay, then I'll be waiting for the old man, so I won't bother you and will go back first." Before leaving, he handed the key to the old man.

The old man took the key and sent Jia Ren to the door. When the person walked away, Qibao took out the fruit seedlings from the space. Suddenly the yard was full of them. Qibao sprinkled some spiritual spring water to feel relieved.

After everything was ready, the old man locked the door and prepared to come back tomorrow to find someone to pull these fruit seedlings back.

Qibao and Grandpa were about to go to the barbecue restaurant and passed by the key distribution place, which also provided two keys to the new house.

Shopkeeper Zhang was very enthusiastic when he saw his boss coming over. Qibao planned to have dinner with the old man at his own barbecue restaurant at noon.

After finding a table and sitting down, Qibao took out a key and handed it to Shopkeeper Zhang and said, "This is the new yard key I bought in town today. When my brother and the others come back, you can give this to him and buy some by the way." Send the quilt over."

"Yes. I understand. I will definitely handle it properly. Please rest assured, boss." Shopkeeper Zhang assured.

Qibao nodded and said, "Send some food. Grandpa and I will eat here at noon."

Shopkeeper Zhang quickly went to the kitchen to serve his master.

Qibao ate a piece of barbecue and nodded. It was quite fresh and the quality was the same as when it first opened. It seemed that shopkeeper Zhang managed it well.

After dinner, Qibao went to the kitchen and walked around again. Shopkeeper Zhang followed behind him cautiously, for fear that his boss would find something wrong. When the chef saw his boss coming in, they all greeted him respectfully.

Qibao nodded in response and reached out to touch the table in the kitchen where the meat was placed. Yes, it was quite clean. After checking the kitchen, Qibao was quite satisfied.
