    ?

    Most people have this kind of feeling when they buy things. If the seller reluctantly sells it at a lower price after spending a long time on their own, then after buying it, they often have the feeling that they have made a profit, but if it is  As soon as I negotiated the price, the seller immediately sold it in a hurry. After buying it, most people's first feeling is that they have lost money.

    That's how Lin Qing felt right now!

    It's a pity that he has already said what he said, and if he changes his words, it will appear to be dishonest, so Lin Qing can only admit it by pinching his nose.

    Lin Qing asked Xiaolin to take the deposit to the two brothers of the Yuan family, and then agreed to go to the household department to change the house deed in two days, and then pay the remaining silver in full, and asked Xiaolin to send the two sons of the Yuan family out.

    After the Yuan family left, Lin Qing walked to the backyard.

    Wang Yan saw Lin Qing come in with the curtain lifted, and went up to meet her, and asked, "But it's settled?"

    Lin Qing took Wang Yan to sit down in the room, and said: "The discussion is settled, but"

    "What's wrong?" Wang Yan asked quickly.

    "It's just that I seem to have lost money." Lin Qing told what happened just now, and then told Wang Yan the price.

    Wang Yan did some calculations, nodded, and said: "The price is indeed a bit high. If the newly built house is based on the location, it would not be much more than 7,000 taels, but now this house has been abandoned for many years.  After all, no one lives there, so the house must have been damaged, and craftsmen must be hired to repair it, so it is indeed a bit of a loss."

    "It's all my fault. I knew it would be cut in half at the time. I thought it was too much to cut in half for such a large amount, but who knew, alas," Lin Qing said with a sigh.

    "Doing business is all about asking for prices, sitting on the floor and haggling. It's the usual practice to cut half of it first and then bargain again. But Erlang, you don't have to feel uncomfortable because of this. According to my estimate, even if you bargain there  , as long as you want to buy it, the house will not be lower than 6,000 taels. After all, it is a Qijin house. Even if it is not easy to sell, it will not be too low.  It makes me feel uncomfortable."

    The corners of Lin Qing's mouth twitched when he heard that, in the eyes of his wife, one thousand taels is just a small coin!

    Wang Yan really didn't care about the thousand taels. In her eyes, it would be better if she could buy a suitable house quickly. Although there are many houses in the capital, there are not many houses with the same location and size as this one. Even if there are,  They have to find it slowly, right? Instead of wasting time, it's better to spend more money.

    Wang Yan asked: "When will the deed be issued?"

    "I made an appointment with the Yuan family. I will go to the Ministry of Households to get the deed the day after tomorrow. If the house in the capital exceeds the fifth entry, I have to go to the Ministry of Households to get it." Lin Qing said.

    Wang Yan nodded and said, "Let's go through it quickly. After the deed is issued, I will find someone to clean up the yard. When the time comes, our family will move there and it will be spacious."

    Lin Qing said with a smile: "You are impatient."

    Wang Yan cast a glance at Lin Qing, and said, "Don't be impatient, when other people's grandchildren run around, our daughter-in-law hasn't married yet!"

    Lin Qing handled the matter of the house swiftly, paid the rest of the money to the Yuan family, and after the deed, handed over the house to Wang Yan to clean it up.  Then Lin Qing anxiously waited for the results of Lin Huan's provincial examination in the Ministry of Rites.

    Every time the results of the provincial examination are released, the chief examiner of the provincial examination must transcribe the results of the provincial examination, and then rush them to the Ministry of Rites for eight hundred miles, so that the Ministry of Rites can archive them for future reference.  So Lin Qing stayed in the Ministry of Rites so that he could know the result faster than sending a letter from his hometown.

    Lin Qing was sitting in the room drinking tea anxiously that day. According to his calculation, the results should come within two days.

    Seeing Xu Sheng walk in from the outside in a hurry, he said as soon as he saw Lin Qing: "My lord, the 800 li from Shan Province has arrived urgently, and it has been sent to the courtyard of Mr. Butang."

    "Really?" Lin Qing stood up instantly, and then hurried to Shen Ru's room.

    Lin Qing walked outside Shen Ru's house, and saw a postman coming out of Shen Ru's house. He didn't care about letting others pass it on, so he went directly to the door and knocked on the door frame with his hand.

    Shen Ru heard the voice, looked up and saw that it was Lin Qing, and said, "Come in!"

    Lin Qing went in, and asked directly: "But the results of the provincial examination from the mountain province have been sent."

    Shen Ru nodded, opened the sealed box, took out a booklet from inside, handed it to Lin Qing and said, "I knew you came here in a hurry to ask this, now, this is it."

    Lin Qing hurriedly took it, opened the booklet, and looked at it from front to back. When he saw a familiar name, he immediately said in surprise: "Huan'er has won!"

    "I won, how many names?" Shen Ru couldn't help walking over, and in Lin QingHe stretched his head to look at it, and said, "It's actually the ninth place. This ranking is not bad."

    Lin Qing nodded, and said happily: "No, I thought it would be good for this kid to be in the top 20, but who knows that he actually got the ninth place in the exam."

    "If he can still reach this level after the test, it shouldn't be a problem to pass the test." Shen Ru estimated.

    After hearing this, Lin Qing was overjoyed, but then he felt a little worried, and said, "But at his level, what if he falls to the top three in the palace examination next year?"

    "With your current status, even if the two children accidentally fall into the top three, promotion will not be a problem in the future, but they will not be able to join the cabinet. Besides, this is the first scientific examination for His Majesty who has just ascended the throne. Even if the top three  , and there are many more chances than the second-class ones in the future, so you don't have to worry too much." Shen Ru said.

    Lin Qing nodded after hearing this, and Shen Ru said it was indeed reasonable.

    "However, we can see this, and the ministers in the court and some aristocratic families can also see this, so I am afraid that the competition next year will be very fierce." Shen Ru said lightly.

    After Lin Qing heard this, her heart suddenly rose again.

    Shen Ru looked at Lin Qing, patted Lin Qing, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't worry, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, even if two children fail, just take the exam next time.  One imperial examination is the best, but as long as you and I are here, our children, no matter which imperial examination, as long as they can pass, it will not be a problem."

    After hearing this, Lin Qing smiled and said, "So, sometimes the background is also very important."

    Shen Ru nodded and said, "That's the reason. Don't you think so?"

    Lin Qing: ¡­¡­¡­

    Son, thank you father and me, you are now the second generation of officials!  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
