Chen Qing frowned, "Old Zhou, please lower your voice, your voice is known to everyone in the world!"
Zhou Kuan laughed and said, "I'm sensible! Everyone has gone out to eat, and there's no one around."
"Let's go! Let's go to the teahouse to have dinner, and we'll talk about it after we finish the meal."
The two came to the teahouse. Chen Qing ordered two Tongzhou roasted lamb rice and a pot of Feng tea. The Tongzhou roasted lamb here is the real Kuquan lamb. The meat is very tender and has no mutton smell, but
The price is also very high, two meals cost 50 guan, plus a pot of phoenix tea costing 100 guan, this lunch will cost 150 guan.
Zhou Kuan muttered in a low voice: "It's too luxurious. This is enough for an ordinary family to earn for two years."
Chen Qing glared at him, "How about you treat me to this meal?"
Zhou Kuan laughed, "People are short-tongued. I talk too much."
"As long as you know!"
Not long after, two young maids brought two large plates of food. The mutton had just been roasted and was still sizzling with oil. Usually the maids would help cut it, but how could Chen Qing's soldiers allow a strange woman to approach King Yong with a knife?
The maid didn't even have a chance to enter the house.
The soldiers tested the poison and brought the dinner plate over. Zhou Kuan couldn't help but sigh: "Out of the twenty-five sticks, at least ten of them are maids."
"Eat quickly! Why are you so long-winded? Do you think I really know how to spend twenty-five dollars?" Chen Qing interrupted him impatiently.
Zhou Kuan suddenly realized that Chen Qing was the proprietor, and of course the proprietor didn't have to spend money to come to eat.
After the two of them finished eating, Chen Qing poured two cups of tea into the official kiln tea cup and said calmly: "Tell me! How do you know about the princess selling a teahouse?"
Zhou Kuan took a sip of tea and fondled the jianzhan official kiln. He smiled at Chen Qing and said, "I heard it from Jiang Yanxian. Jiang Yanxian either heard it from Wei Qing, the county magistrate, or Gao Kun, the commander of the Land and Housing Department."
It's probably from Weizhi County. To exchange land deeds, you have to go through the county and pay taxes. Of course the county knows about it. This is the highest price per mu so far, and the price is comparable to Fengle Building in Lin'an."
"Fengle Building is also priced at 40,000 yuan per mu?"
Zhou Kuan nodded, "Fengle Building, including the construction of the building, cost a total of 250,000 guan. Of course, I earned it back in a few years. It is said that one night costs a thousand guan. How can Jingzhao spend such extravagant money?"
?I’m afraid your one hundred and fifty money won’t even be enough for a cup of tea at Fengle Tower.”
Chen Qing shook his head and said decisively: "I will never allow a Fengle Building to appear in Jingzhao. It will only make the generals of the Western Army corrupt and make all civil servants look at money. Now it is enough that everyone is keen on raiding houses and land.
It makes my head hurt. If the extravagance of Lin'an is allowed to spread to Jingzhao again, within three years, the wolf-headed flag of the Jin soldiers will be planted on the top of Jingzhao again."
Zhou Kuan's face became serious and he asked: "Does His Highness want to curb this trend of real estate speculation?"
Chen Qing said without hesitation: "Of course! Although my family is also keen on buying houses and land, it does not mean that I can tolerate it."
"Your Highness needs to understand why the price of land in Jingzhao has skyrocketed. In fact, the main reason is that the world's wealthy and aristocratic families are optimistic about Jingzhao. They are not short of money. Just like Zhang Tai, a little salt lord, they can get a lot of money from him.
The wealth of millions of guan was related to them because of the previous sharp increase in land prices in Lin'an. Zhang Tai spent 200,000 guan to buy land in Lin'an, and Zheng Tongquan invested more than 500,000 guan in Lin'an.
Now that the Western Army is getting stronger and stronger, marching eastward step by step, how can these rich people in the world not see it? Of course they also want to buy a house for their family in Jingzhao, so why does the price of a ten-acre house rise to 100,000 yuan?
Right here, houses with more than five acres are the most precious, and they are robbed as soon as they come out.
No one knows how many wealthy families and giant merchants have accumulated wealth for decades. Therefore, I advise Your Highness not to use blockade, but to open up and build as many yards as possible under one acre.
, in Chang'an City of the Han Dynasty, outside the city, the price of small houses was suppressed with enough quantity to ensure that ordinary people could afford to live in houses. As for houses with more than three acres, it was not something ordinary people could consider. As long as there was demand,
Just let it go up! Anyway, most of the houses are in the hands of the Land and Housing Administration, so why not use the big houses to harvest the wealth of the world's richest people?"
Zhou Kuan has made his point of view clear, and whether Chen Qing can listen to it or not is not his business.
Zhong Huan waited for a quarter of an hour in the back hall of the county government office. Wei Qing, the county magistrate, came to the back hall with a clerk holding a thick file bag in his hand.
"The information that General Zhong wants is available here. General Zhong can check it out!"
Wei Qing winked at the clerk, who retreated.
Zhong Huan slowly opened the file bag. He was the commander of the inner guard. According to regulations, the commander of the inner guard and above generals can check any government information as long as they hold the execution silver medal.
Zhong Huan took out a stack of documents. The first one was the latest contract, the contract for the purchase of Yi'an Tea House by Taibai Restaurant, as well as the land deed and house deed left at the county government office.
Zhong Huan looked at it carefully and found that one party to the contract was Tian Wenzhi, the steward of Tian Da. The princess authorized him to sign the contract on her behalf. The other party's signature was Liu Gui, and the intermediary Yaren also signed the contract.
"Is this Liu Gui the owner of Taibai Restaurant?" Zhong Huan asked.
Wei Qing shook his head, "I don't know. You will see later that the signatory for the land purchase by Taibai Restaurant is also Liu Gui, and"
"And what?" Zhong Huan asked.
"And the boss of Taibai Restaurant is also named Liu. I think I heard someone say that he is also named Liu Gui. This is a bit strange. Maybe he has the same name!"
"Isn't it the same person? I mean, the signer is the big shopkeeper."
Wei Qing still shook his head, "I know Liu Da, the shopkeeper of Taibai Restaurant. This is the first time I've met Liu Gui, who signed for the land purchase this time."
"Does that mean this contract is invalid? It's not the real name."
"It doesn't matter. As long as they pay the tax in full and pay the rent to the other party in time, it doesn't matter whether this person is called Liu Gui or not. But one thing is that any future sale of the teahouse land or the renaming of the land deed must be done by Liu Gui himself.
Come and apply because you need to check your fingerprints."
"What if Liu Gui dies?"
"Death is another matter. You need to have Liu Gui's death certificate issued by the government. Then his heirs have to publish a statement in the newspaper. If no one comes to fight for the property after three months, then the government can change it.
Land deed.”
Zhong Huan then took out the purchase contract for the Taibai Restaurant land. Sure enough, it was also signed by Liu Gui. There was also a fingerprint next to it. Zhong Huan compared the two signatures with his fingerprints and was stunned.
"Mr. Wei County, haven't you noticed that these two Liu Gui are not the same person? Their handwriting and fingerprints are completely different."
