"Twenty thousand taels..."

Qian Ning listened to the price and confirmed in a daze: "Did you say it's 20,000 taels now?"

The person who went to the Yashang Manager to inquire about the news saw his expression and replied weakly: "Yes."

"I said that the firewood in Beijing is short of firewood now, and housing prices in Beijing have been rising."

"In addition, after the Chinese New Year, most of the students who come to participate in the provincial examinations in Zhili will come to the capital within these two months."

"There are more people who have passed the provincial examination and stayed to take the next year's examination. I guess there will be many houses in Beijing."

"The house in Yongxibo is located in a good location. Just repair the walls and 20,000 taels are considered a normal price."

Qian Ning was a little in tears.

"I sold 12,000 taels, how long will it take?"

"Is this price so outrageous?"

The running errand said: "Qian Baihu, if you want to buy a house back at this time, wouldn't you suffer a loss?"

"Why might as well wait until...I will buy it again the next year?"

These two years have been the Imperial Examination Year.

After the provincial examination, the next year will be the final examination.

At that time, all students in the world will gather in the capital, and housing prices will be even more unlikely to be cheaper.

For several consecutive years, winter has begun several months in advance, making the supply of firewood in Northern Zhili in short supply.

At the end of last year, Zhao Ce made the silver bone charcoal again and even stocked up a lot of good wood.

This house cannot be priced even if it is not worth it.

Although there is a honeycomb coal produced in the capital now, Qian Ning doesn't know that this thing will truly replace the status of charcoal.

Qian Ning thought with some pain. Yongxibo said he wanted to change the house, which was a good opportunity.

If I bought it at a high price at this time, the previous incident will definitely be written off.

If we wait until the next year, who will remember who Qian Ning is?

I finally got to know Liu Jin, the eunuch who was beside the prince, and if I didn’t strike while the iron was hot, wouldn’t I have lost all my efforts?

"Forget it..." Qian Ning gritted his teeth: "Twenty thousand taels are just twenty thousand taels."

He was summoned by the prince several times before, and he also received a lot of benefits.

Twenty thousand taels, you can still get it by yourself.

Qian Ning stroked his face.

"I'd better raise money."

......

Zhao Ce didn't know what Qian Ning thought.

If he said he wanted to change a house, he wouldn't just talk casually.

Nowadays, Yinbotan has a lot of income, and the coal produced in Coal Mountain has also been purchased by the imperial court.

The money he had in his hands suddenly increased.

Zhao Ce is indeed planning to change to a better house.

I guess I can't buy South Street, but when I go to North Street, there are places where rich people live.

The residence is much better than the West Street.

These houses are probably available for purchase.

Zhao Ce thought about it and prepared to ask Mr. Zhu to send someone to ask him to ask him for help.

Anyway, he has eaten so many cakes and hotpots at home, so he can't eat them in vain, right?

Zhao Ce thought happily and said to Su Caier next to him: "Baby, go and calculate how much savings our family has now."

"Let's go to a bigger house!"

Su Caier nodded and happily carried the cash box out.

After a winter of income, their empty cash box has now become bulging.

When I opened it, I saw that there were a lot of silver notes, a large box of silver ingots and some gold nails.

Some of them are also Daming treasures.

In short, there are all kinds of money.

Su Caier counted them one by one, and then found them regretfully.

Their family now has less money to buy a big house on North Street.

The people living on the North Street are all rich, so naturally there are no small houses.

At least they are the same as theirs, and they are a big house with three entry points.

Now they add up to tens of thousands of taels in their hands.

You have to wait a little longer.

“It’s really not enough…”

Zhao Ce touched his chin and said with regret.

Su Caier couldn't stand her husband's unhappy at all, so she quickly comforted her and said, "If it's not enough, we won't buy it."

"I have lived in this house for almost two months, and I think it's pretty good."

"When Xiaobao is born, find someone to repair the wall."

Zhao Ce smiled and rubbed her little head.

"I know you don't mind this."

"But I found out something not long ago."

"There are some experienced Wenpo in the capital, and they only serve the people living in Nanbei Street."

"I've gone there, it will be more convenient to find a stable lady at that time."

These peaceful women who can serve those noble people are in short supply.

The wealthy families are rushing to ask for it.

Generally, if the family confirms that there is a happy family, they will bring them close to the home.

If they want to go out in another place, they can only be in a similar place.

Otherwise, other people's masters would not want these stable ladies to go far.

Of course, it is easy to find an ordinary stable woman, and you will also have one at home at the same time.

The few stable women Zhao Ce asked Aunt Chen to go out to inquire about were basically nothing serious happened to the pregnant women he was dealing with.

Because of their good delivery skills, they all moved into the homes of some wealthy families early.

But they lived in early and within seven or eight months, they could still take on other jobs.

The medical level in ancient times was not very good. A rich and experienced fan was the one that every wealthy family was rushing to seek.

They live on West Street and to ensure that they are foolproof, they must move to the vicinity.

Now Su Caier's fetus is not very old, but these are things to consider in advance.

Su Caier could not have thought that there was so much knowledge to have in this capital to have children.

She said with some uncertainty: "Then let's just find an ordinary stable woman?"

"The aunts in the village are all delivered by the village's wife."

Zhao Ce pinched the tip of her little nose disagreed.

"You don't have to listen to me."

Su Caier grabbed his hand that pinched his nose and said, "Okay, I'll just listen to my husband."

Zhao Ce smiled and said, "Well, I'm not afraid, I'll ask for inquiries again."

"In another month or two, our money will definitely be enough."

......

While the young couple were discussing the house change, the court there had resumed its attendance.

After the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival holiday will take a few days to come.

Emperor Hongzhi had already started busy political affairs with his prince and cabinet members.

The problem of heating in winter was solved and he was in a very good mood.

After the court came to the court, the six ministers and members of the cabinet all went to the warm cabinet to discuss political affairs.

"Queli Confucius Temple was destroyed by a fire last year and needs to be rebuilt this year. I'll have to go there as a Cabinet minister, Master Li."

"Time is tight, and Master Li may have to pass the Lantern Festival on the way."

This matter was settled last year, and Li Dongyang nodded and said, "I obey the order."

After arranging this matter, we discussed other matters.

Seeing that it was almost done, Emperor Hongzhi brought up the matter that he had been preparing to discuss at the end of last year.
