Chapter 481: Choosing a House

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Old Madam Wang bought a house in the prefecture capital. This house was not very far from the county office of Magistrate Wei, only two streets away.

It had three courtyard entrances. It was smaller than the house in Nanhe Town, but the layout was more exquisite. There were pavilions and everything. There was even an inland river that made it look like a water village.

Back in Nanhe Town, a house of this size only cost 150 taels.

In the prefecture capital, the agent directly quoted a price. “Old Madam, I see that you’re sincere in buying the house. I’ll also sincerely give you a price. Not counting the agent fees and administration fees for the house and deed, just the price of the house itself is 1,300 taels of silver. I won’t be able to sell it for even one silver less.”

Wang Chuanfu pinched his arm hard, worried that he would cry out when he heard this price.

“Mother, I don’t need such an expensive house. I’ll just find a place to live somewhere else. When I pass the exam in the future, I don’t have to stay here to study.” When they went to view houses on the second day, Wang Chuangui and his wife were naturally there.

Wang Chuangui naturally thought that this house was bought for him.

He didn’t think that it would be registered under his name, but it should be to let him study with more convenience.

Old Madam Wang glanced at him. “What does where you go to study got to do with me buying a house?”

Wang Chuangui:”?”

“Mother, then why are you buying a house here?” Wang Chuanman was not afraid that the old lady could not take out the money. He was just afraid that the old lady would take out all the family assets.

What was the use of buying a house in the prefecture capital?

Old Madam Wang couldn’t be bothered with her sons and asked the agent to bring her to take a look. “Purchasing a property is not such a simple matter. Other than this place, are there any other units? Let me take a look at those.” “I can’t hide it from Old Madam. There’s a similar place half a street away from this unit. The property is also very spacious, even bigger than this one. However, no one has lived in it for seven to eight years. It looks a little dilapidated inside. As for the price, it’s 100 taels less than this,” the agent said with a smile.

The agent brought the few of them to the house. He seemed to be a little afraid and did not bring everyone in. Instead, he only opened the courtyard door for everyone to see the condition inside.

It was indeed very dilapidated.

All kinds of tables and chairs were overturned everywhere, looking like they had been patronized by bandits.

Old Madam Wang: “You’re asking 1,200 taels of silver for this lousy house?” Seeing that Old Madam Wang seemed to have the intention to buy it, the agent hurriedly said, “Old Madam, let me tell you the truth. The 1,200 taels of silver for this house is inclusive of all the expenses. However, although I can get someone to clean the previous house for free, we won’t help clean this place.” Wang Chuanfu felt that something was wrong and blurted out, “Don’t tell me this is some haunted house?!”

This house clearly looked bigger. Although it was old, it was still structurally fine.

Why was the price so different?

Even the difference between 1,200 taels and 1,300 taels was enough to buy a house in Nanhe Town.

The smile on the agent’s face froze. “…Well… you can’t put it like that.”

There were rules among the agents that they could not take the initiative to tell the person who wanted to buy a house what had happened. However, if the person who bought the house asked, they had to tell them the truth.

Otherwise, if there was a dispute in the future, they can ask the agent to compensate them.

“I think this house has been in your hands for a long time. Let’s each take a step back. There’s no need for you to clean it, but I’ll only offer 1,000 taels.” Old Madam Wang made the final decision. “I’m leaving today. If you’re willing to sell it, I can go to the county office with you to sign the documents today.” With that, Old Madam Wang turned around and left, not allowing time for the agent to think.

Wang Chuangui felt that this scene was familiar. His movements came out faster than his thoughts. He took a step forward and whispered to the agent, “My mother is like this.. If she leaves this door today, even if you agree later, she won’t buy it…”
