Chapter 195 Did the God of Wealth Touch His Head?
In Dali, the price of men in pawnshops is several times that of women.
An average adult man can be sold for five to eight taels, but a woman can only be sold for around one to three taels.
If it is a younger girl, the price will be even lower.
As for those who are extremely beautiful, it is impossible for them to appear in pawnshops. They would have been sent to brothels long ago, and their prices would naturally not be able to be just a few taels.
Therefore, the brokerage did not suffer any loss by spending 120 taels to buy eight men who knew some martial arts skills.
Jiang Hao really wanted to buy it, so he offered the highest price he could accept.
The manager wanted to try to get more money, but Jiang Hao refused to add even a penny. He thought that these people had been in the pawnshop for a while, and if they could be sold in batches, it would relieve the pressure on the pawnshop.
"Girl, if you need anything in the future, you must continue to look for me."
Whoever sells the product gets a commission, and the manager also gets an extra commission. When you meet a big customer like Jiang Hao, you naturally look forward to the next business.
It doesn't matter who you buy from, as long as he doesn't cheat people, Jiang Hao doesn't mind doing repeat business with him: "If there is such a thing again in the future, just let someone come to me."
The steward was overjoyed: "No problem."
Jiang Hao paid the silver, and the pawnbroker handed the women's indentures to Jiang Hao, saying, "Young lady, please keep them well."
These indentures were all dead deeds, and could not be redeemed without the master's mercy. However, like unnamed property deeds, whoever got them belonged to them, and if they were destroyed, it was fine, but if they were lost, it would be troublesome.
After Jiang Hao received the indenture, he talked to the manager about his requirements for buying a house.
The yard she lived in now had no front and back yards, so she couldn't bring these people back with her. So, she had to buy a house.
There will be more and more people in the future, so we must at least buy a three-story courtyard.
"Yes, yes, yes! Miss, our dental office happens to have a yard for sale that meets your requirements. If you have time, I will take you to see it right away."
The manager's blood was boiling with excitement. Was it because the God of Wealth touched his head when he went out this morning?
Jiang Hao didn't expect that the process of buying someone would be so smooth, so buying a house became an urgent need.
"have a look."
Someone from the pawnbroker immediately hitched up a carriage and took the manager and Jiang Hao to see the house.
The eight people who were just bought are temporarily staying in the dental clinic.
This three-story house is on the same street as where Xu Xing and his friends live. Someone urgently needed to sell it, so they put it in the pawnshop.
It's been strange recently. There have been more than ten houses put up for sale in the brokerage office. Most of them have two courtyards, and very few have four. This one with three courtyards was just put up for sale in the brokerage office yesterday.
Jiang Hao listened to the steward's mumbling and understood something in his mind. These houses were probably the private property of certain masters, and they were forced to sell them now because they were anxious to collect money to add to the national treasury.
But I don’t know who this house belongs to.
Jiang Hao followed the steward to tour the front and back yards. The house was clean and tidy, and the layout was very elegant. It was obvious that someone was living there before it was vacated and sold.
"Miss, this house used to cost about one thousand taels."
The steward was full of amazement: "Now, the sale is urgent, the master only wants 800 taels."
This is a total bargain!
It doesn’t matter if Jiang Hao doesn’t want it. At this price, it will be sold within three days.
Jiang Hao was quite satisfied with this courtyard. She also had the silver given by Zhang Zhongjing as a cover, so eight hundred taels was indeed not expensive.
"Bought it!"
"God of Wealth...Miss..."
The manager was so surprised that he said, "Please, please, please, let's go back to the dental office and handle the formalities immediately."
"Quick and quick decision."
"Girl, please."
