Chapter 165 Sending to the mansion
In the Su Mansion, Su Lin finally got the recognition of Su Zhong through his own strength. Moreover, because Su Lin helped Old Master Su break through to the semi-saint, it can be said that Su Lin's current status in the Su Mansion is strictly speaking more important than the eldest son Su Ye.
"Young Master, the second master said that you may be comparable to the semi-saint of your ancestor Su Qin in the future. The old slave is lucky enough to follow the young master. That is really a blessing to cultivate in eight lifetimes!"
Jia Lao's face was full of spring breeze. He had been a scholar-in-law Su Zong since he was a child, and he was fortunate to be a juren's literary position. Su Zong, who he served, has now become a semi-saint. If Su Lin becomes a semi-saint again, he would serve two semi-saints in the Su family in a row. This kind of glory is unparalleled for Jia Lao.
"Half-saint? Mr. Jia, I am just a scholar now, and I don't know how many years it will take for half-saint. Let's focus on the current affairs of building a mansion? By the way, is Mr. Jia optimistic about the selection of the address of the mansion?"
Su Lin is in a very sunny mood now, and he is also glad that the Su family where he is located is such an enlightened and united family of inheritance. Not only are the other young men friendly to him, but elders like Su Zhong, Su Yuan and the old man Su Zong also care about him very much, and they will not be alienated or excluded because of his blood relationship.
"Hehe! Young Master, I know this grand mansion in Jian'an Mansion. There are only a few people who are interested in transferring and selling, one in the southwest of the city, and the other in the southeast. The prices of these three mansions are between 80,000 taels and 150,000 taels. However, in terms of scale, it would be enough for these three mansions to be an ordinary mansion. But... Young Master, you are Maocai, who can write poems about the country, and using such a mansion, will be underestimated..."
Mr. Jia said slowly, it was obvious that in his opinion, none of these three mansions deserved Su Lin's identity.
"Then... Since Mr. Jia thinks these three mansions are too small and not grand enough, please find a bigger one! After all, Ru'er will follow me at that time, and with the servants and others who are still recruiting, it's better to have a bigger mansion. As for money, well... it's within 500,000 taels, it's acceptable."
This was the first time Su Lin considered the issue of "buying a house". In his previous life, he was a high school student on earth and could not afford a house. Unexpectedly, after traveling through time, he became a scholar and rich man with millions of silver notes. So he was so determined that if he wanted to buy it, he would buy a grand and luxurious mansion.
"The young master's silver is enough, but... the size of this mansion in Jian'an Mansion is mostly a mansion of wealthy families, and it is not for sale. I'm afraid... we want to buy it, but others may not want to sell it."
Mr. Jia smiled bitterly and said, "Or, young master. We can buy some land in the city and plan and build according to the young master's requirements and preferences. However, in this way, it will take at least one year for the mansion of this size to be completed."
"A year has been too long. Mr. Jia, we can't wait for that long. If not, choose one of the three mansions before!"
Without his own mansion, the mansion cannot be officially established. Su Lin doesn't want to wait until a year later, so if he really doesn't work, he can only buy a smaller mansion first.
And at this moment, a servant suddenly came to report: "Thirteenth Young Master,... the eldest son of the Youqian Family is here to visit! He is already waiting in the main hall."
"The eldest son of the Qian family?" Su Lin was puzzled for a moment and then thought, "I remember, it was Qian Sixian, who invited all the students of the court to visit the brothel last time! He came to the Su Mansion to visit me. Could it be that he wanted to invite me to visit the Baihua Building again? Hehe!"
"Young Master, the Qian family is amazing. Although the Qian family has never produced a half-saint, and the only great scholar has passed away for nearly a hundred years, the Qian family, the largest grain merchant in Tianren continent, has not changed hands for hundreds of years. The Qian family in Jian'an Prefecture is just an important branch. In other countries in Tianren continent, there are also Qian family's semicolons... It is not an exaggeration to say that the Qian family's property is rich enough to rival a country..."
When Jia Lao heard that Qian Sixian, the eldest son of the Qian family, came, he hurried to Su Lin, "Besides, the Qian family has a wide range of friendship and has connections in the nine countries and even the demon barbarians, so their food business can be smooth. Young Master, Qian Sixian, the eldest son of the Qian family, is interested in getting in contact with the young master. This is a great thing! The young master can even use the Qian family's news channels to convey the news that we are going to recruit guests to all parts of the nine countries..."
"Ah! I didn't expect that Qian Dapang is not the native young master I imagined. He is quite a bit of a big shot. I don't know what he has to do with me today. I'll talk about it first!"
After a certain idea, Su Lin cooperated with Mr. Jia to the reception hall. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the chubby Qian Sixian sitting on the chair while drinking tea while waiting. Seeing Su Lin coming, his eyes immediately smiled into a crack. He quickly stood up and bowed to Su Lin, congratulations: "Congratulations to Brother Su, Maocai, high school. Qian came to the door to congratulate him today. I would like to offer a gift. Brother Su, look at the deed of the Holy Li! "
Take out a strange holy power gold page from the Qiankun bag, which was the holy power house deed. Qian Sixian shook it gently, and the holy power in the wisdom trick was poured into it. The entire holy power house deed automatically unfolded, presenting a reduced version of the mansion model.
"This... Brother Qian, what does this mean? Su dare not accept such a generous gift!"
Su Lin looked at the model of the Shengli Mansion in surprise, lifelike, carved beams and green tiles, courtyards, wing rooms, gardens, towers and water pavilions, lakes, etc., magnificent and grand, it looks pleasing to the eye and loves extraordinary.
The moment he saw the model of this mansion, Su Lin thought of a poem from "Little Window Side Record" when he was a child: "I am not surprised by the favor and disgrace, but I am more deeply aware of the flowers in front of the courtyard." When I grew up, I had a deeper understanding. If I had such a villa with a garden, I would not be fucking favour and disgrace.
Now, in front of Su Lin, there is a mansion that is much more grand and high-end than the courtyard in the poem. It even has a natural lake. From the model, Su Lin can see a small island in the middle of the lake, with several pavilions and water pavilions built on it, which I believe will have artistic conception.
But no matter how much you like it, Su Lin knew that "no reward is not received without merit". In this world, no one will give you benefits for no reason except his parents. Qian Sixian personally delivered this mansion to his door, and Su Lin liked it very much. However, he would not accept it for no reason.
"Brother Su, why should I refuse this? Our Qian family likes to make friends with talented people like Brother Su the most. And personally, since Brother Su entered the palace on the first day, the poem "Summer Quatrain" in the country has greatly defeated Xiang Tian's jealousy. Qian has made up his mind to make friends like Brother Su."
It seemed that Su Lin would definitely refuse. Qian Sixian smiled and handed the Shengli House Deed to Su Lin and persuaded, "It was normal for gentlemen to give each other gifts. Yesterday, Qian had the honor to see Brother Su with his own eyes, and he thought that Brother Su was as talented as a scholar. After becoming a scholar, he would definitely build a mansion and recruit guests. That's why Qian specially selected one of the three mansions of my Qian family in Jian'an Mansion and gave it to Brother Su. I hope Brother Su must not postpone it!"
"Yes! Young Master, aren't we worried about not having a suitable mansion? The one sent by Young Master Qian is already the top five mansions in our Jian'an Mansion! It is also the only mansion with such a big lake and garden besides our Su Mansion and the Qian family's current mansion."
Before Su Lin could speak, Jia Lao was moved when he saw the model of the mansion and hurriedly helped Su Lin to persuade him.
"Although we urgently need a suitable mansion to build a mansion, Brother Qian's gift is too big. Otherwise, Brother Qian, you can offer a price. I will buy this mansion from you. How about it?" Su Lin smiled and made a suggestion.
"This is OK, but I don't want Brother Su's silver. My Qian family has more silver. This is also a request from Qian!" Qian Sixian threw out several high-end holy gold pages from the Qiankun bag, as well as high-quality dragon blood ink and Hanlin pens. He pointed to Su Lin and said, "Brother Su. The value of this mansion is no less than one million taels. Qian only needs the ten poems "Praise the Farmers" written by Brother Su himself!"
"I want my handwritten "Praise Farmer"? Brother Qian is..." Su Lin contacted the Qian family's identity as a grain merchant and immediately figured it out again, "The Qian family is in the grain business, and I think there are large areas of farmland in the nine countries. I think my song "Praise Farmer" is of great benefit to the high yield of grain. However, the price of a poem is nearly 100,000 taels, and the same "Praise Farmer". Brother Qian really respects Su."
"Haha! Brother Su, don't belittle yourself. If you count it seriously, Qian will take advantage of Brother Su! Before the Mansion Examination, Brother Su's calligraphy was worth thousands or tens of thousands of taels of silver. However, after the Mansion Examination, Brother Su won more talent in one fell swoop, and he had a knowledgeable and knowledgeable meaning. Now, Brother Su's calligraphy is probably worth 100,000 taels of silver! "
Qian Sixian laughed. All what he said was true. The value of Su Lin's word is soaring now. Especially many families in Jian'an Prefecture and even other prefectures hope to get a Su Lin's word so that the young master who was seeking imperial examinations in his mansion could get Su Lin's talent.
"Oh? In this case, Su is not polite to Brother Qian. However, Su also has a reluctant request, hoping that Brother Qian will use the various grain shops of the Qian family to help me convey the news of recruiting visitors to all prefectures and counties in the nine countries after I opened the palace. How about it?" Su Lin smiled and picked up the Hanlin pen, stained with dragon blood ink, and was about to write "Praise the Farmer".
"No problem! With Brother Su's name as a genius in the Nine Kingdoms, I believe that there will definitely be a constant stream of Confucian disciples who come here." Seeing Su Lin agreeing, Qian Sixian was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly. (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
