Chapter 84

Yinshuang went around looking at one place after another, and finally turned to the so-called haunted house. Looking up, there was a plaque on the gate, but Yinshuang didn't speak, quietly waiting for the broker to introduce her.

Sure enough, the broker immediately introduced courteously: "My lord, this is here, Mo Xiang Xiaozhu, this place will satisfy you, the surrounding is quiet, the courtyard as soon as you enter, the courtyard has its own well, and the open space connected to the back door of the courtyard also belongs to this house." , if it is expanded, it will be enough to build a big house for a big family!"

As he spoke, the broker looked up at the most intense noon sun, and then took out the copper key and opened the copper lock on the gate.

Click, squeak~ When the door was pushed open, a burst of dust fell.

Protecting Yinshuang, Li Rongfu hurriedly took two steps back, looking at the dust, frowning.

"Cough, cough, cough, no one has lived here for a long time." The broker waved his hand, patted the dust on himself with some embarrassment, and then invited Yinshuang to enter.

Entering the courtyard, Yinshuang looked around calmly and nodded with some satisfaction.

The courtyard wall is not high, and the gate is not very elegant. Inside is an exquisite small courtyard, and there is a back door between the main room and the side room.

In particular, there is a well in the relatively spacious yard, which is very suitable for hiding fish, but it is covered with a large wooden cover. There are pale yellow flowers blooming in the small courtyard outside the courtyard.

Outside the back door is a small wasteland overgrown with weeds, and there are some abandoned vegetable fields and gourd racks. Obviously, it should be the place where the original owner grows some fruits and vegetables.

This place is not too small, and there is a fence on the outside that can be crossed with one foot, which can be regarded as a boundary. If you grow vegetables, it is almost enough for one person.

Yinshuang carefully observed this small courtyard in the broker's explanation, with deep eyes, he found some interesting traces, maybe he knows why this place is called a haunted house, and the details can only be seen at night.

Afterwards, the broker took Yinshuang to see the main house, side room and kitchen in the courtyard. The yard of the house is not too big. Although there is a layer of dust in the house, it can be said that the overall layout is sound and the courtyard is elegant.

The furniture was almost emptied, only the largest main room still had a bed, a table, and a few tattered stools.

When returning to the yard after shopping around, Yinshuang nodded slightly, her face full of satisfaction.

The broker flattered him and said, "Hey, sir, are you satisfied? I knew you would like this house, and this house is cheap, you only need 120 six taels of silver to buy it. How can such a house be sold for a thousand taels of silver in the capital! "

"Hmm! It's quite cheap." Yinshuang nodded slightly.

The broker cautiously whispered to Yinshuang: "Hey, my lord, the original owner of this place has passed away a long time ago, and now the house deed and land deed belong to the government, and the place is relatively remote, so it has not been sold. It may not be worth it, and ordinary people can’t afford more than 100 taels, so it’s much more cost-effective to build the house by yourself, so this place has not been sold, and the government has to lower the price frequently.”

Yinshuang looked suddenly enlightened: "Oh~ Then I have to go to the government office in person if I want to buy it?"

"Are you determined to buy it, sir?" the broker looked at Yinshuang expectantly and asked.

Yinshuang was planning to buy it at first, so she nodded in natural satisfaction and said, "Such a cheap and elegant house is very suitable for me, so I bought it."

The broker was overjoyed, and encouraged him happily, "Okay, okay, my lord, you really have vision! Why don't we go to the county government together and sign the deed of the house while it's still early?"

The broker obviously couldn't wait to get his hard-earned money. For a business of more than 100 taels, he can get a commission of ten taels, which is not a small amount of money!

Yinshuang nodded slightly, and was about to follow him.

Li Rongfu always felt that something was wrong. He looked around and found nothing wrong, so he couldn't tell where there was a problem.

"Wait! Brother Lin, it's better to think again."

Silver Frost knew he might have noticed something, but he wouldn't change his mind.

"It's okay, Brother Li, that's it. You wait here for a while, and the younger brother will come as soon as he goes."

After finishing speaking, regardless of Li Rongfu's reaction, he followed the broker to the government office.

Half an hour later, in a certain room in the side courtyard of the government office in the capital, the head of the government office looked at Yinshuang in surprise.

"Master Lin, do you really want to buy this house?"

After asking this sentence, the master still looked at the broker, squinting his eyes and stroking his beard. The latter felt a little guilty.

The broker lowered his head guiltily, and shouted in his heart that he was finished, unexpectedly, this person was actually the famous champion of the new discipline.

Yinshuang knew the reason but was confused, and asked suspiciously: "What? Is there a problem with this house? Will it collapse or is there a dispute?
The master had such an expression, and looked at Yinshuang again: "My lord, I can't lie to you. To tell you the truth, this house is solid and elegant, but it is not well-reviewed in the market. The three owners in seven years Either died of illness or had an accident, especially the year before last when a scholar was found horrified to die in the courtyard, and his death was tragic, since then, no one cares about Moxiang Xiaozhu!"

As he said that, the master bookkeeper also turned the register in his hand, which is usually not shown to outsiders, to face Yinshuang, so that he could see the internal note of the government office on it: it is rumored that this is a haunted house.

The master secretary glanced at the broker, and explained: "Actually, our yamen also searched this house specifically to hunt down the murderer, but found nothing, but this is at the feet of the emperor, and we can't invite those so-called high-level people to do things. As for How this house is is different, I am a small master, but try to remind adults."

Yinshuang nodded, and said to him, "Thank you for reminding me, but I am very satisfied with this house, I really want to see what kind of monsters and ghosts it is."

"This……"

The master secretary shook his head, and didn't try to persuade him anymore, he had done his duty, not to mention that the story of the haunted house had not been confirmed at all, pointing to the writing brush on the pen holder next to it and the inkstone on one side.

"Okay, sir, please sign the change of account register, and then pay 120 six taels of silver."

Yinshuang didn't say much, took the brush, dipped it in ink a little, then signed Lin Wuchen on the register, returned the pen and handed over the silver ticket and silver ingot.

After receiving the silver money, the master book took a closer look at the bank notes and weighed the silver ingots, put the money in the drawer, and then turned the book to see the three characters "Lin Wuchen" written neatly and sharply. Xinke No. [-] Scholar, good word!
"My lord, please wait for a moment. I will go to get the deed of the house right now."

The master clerk stood up, searched according to the labels on several large bookshelves behind him, and then took out a dozen paper documents from a wooden box, found out the paper deed belonging to the house, and turned around to hand it to Yinshuang.

"Here, my lord, please put it away!"

"Thank you!"

"Your Excellency, you are welcome, this is the duty of a subordinate official!"

After thanking Yinshuang, she took a glance at the paper deed, which was full of official notes and detailed rules, nodded slightly, and put it in her arms.
