“…”

Everyone looked at Chang Wei in shock.

Chang Wei is just an ordinary scholar, and his fame is at most a scholar.

Even if he can pass the Jinshi in the future, so what if he has to start with a small Shujishi and a Guanzhengshi?

And who can stand in front of Chang Wei, from the chief minister, secondary assistant, and then to the seal of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, who has a very different status than him.

But even in front of them, Chang Wei is neither humble nor arrogant.

Anyone can see a sense of pride from him.

This pride is completely different from the arrogance of ordinary crazy people.

His pride is restrained, to himself, and not to others.

He believed that he was a student in Xishan, so he was extremely proud, but this pride never allowed him to have any flaws. He wanted to do everything perfectly. Even if it was a slight negligence, in his opinion, was unforgivable and a shameful act.

In later generations, there were always a group of guys who beat their chests and fell down because they scored 99 points. Although they still got the first place in the exam, in the eyes of others, this guy is pretending to be a brain problem and a nerd.

But they don’t know that for others, they don’t want to compete with you poor students at all. Whether they are the first or not is not important. What’s important is that they lose a point, and this difference is enough to make themselves feel sad and hateful. Pretend to show off? If it doesn’t exist, is it necessary to pretend to you?

Many students at Xishan Academy are like this.

Everyone took a breath after hearing this.

Even Liu Jian couldn't help but move.

Xishan Academy is really a gathering place for a group of monsters.

And my son is also in this academy, haha, I am honored.

But Zhang Zhaotian was already in a state of dismay and wanted to cry without tears. If Chang Wei asked for punishment for any loss, then... would he still be saved?

Wang Bushi was overjoyed and suddenly felt like he had lost it and gained it again: "Well, it was good, it was good. Building a house is like governing a big country, governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh food. You should strive for excellence, so that you can still be a disciple of a saint."

When I put this high hat on, it seemed to be saying that everyone is a disciple of a saint, so I must have a conscience.

Wang Bushi's face was flushed and he was happy. He kept nodding. It was reliable. Fang Jifan still had some conscience. Before, it seemed that there were many mistakes.

Forget it, forgive him.

But the attendant Liu Zhengjing looked a little wrong.

It seemed that the people in the shed also heard the movement and saw Fang Jifan and the prince come out together.

When everyone saw Zhu Houzhao, they hurriedly saluted: "I have met Your Highness."

Zhu Houzhao only held her hands behind her back and saw these guys in a mess: "What's wrong with this capital? Why are you so embarrassed?"

"this……"

Liu Jian and others blushed. To be honest, it was really hard to speak of.

Liu Jian had no choice but to say: "It has rained for several days, and the water in the capital has risen. This rain is hard to encounter in hundreds of years. The capital... has flowed from shit and urine, and the water reaches its knees... has become a hell on earth."

"It's so good." Zhu Houzhao smiled...

Fang Jifan was busy secretly tucking Zhu Houzhao's sleeves.

Zhu Houzhao realized it and laughed, but she looked sad: "That's it, I...I'm sorry... this... this... this... so many people have suffered disasters and damaged many houses."

Liu Jian was worried and said, "Yes, in the palace, the Jinshen Palace collapsed, the Yuhu Lake and the moat rose... In the Forbidden City, it was a mess, and the inner city's mansion suffered heavy losses, and there were still many roads... As for the outer city, it was even more terrible."

Zhu Houzhao secretly glanced at Fang Jifan with her hands behind her back.

Fang Jifan lowered his head as if he was lost: "It's so... uncomfortable, I feel uncomfortable."

Zhu Houzhao also lowered her head: "Yes, I feel very uncomfortable."

Liu Jian frowned, always thinking these two guys were weird.

Zhu Houzhao said: "I didn't expect that the capital suffered such a huge loss. This... this... well, forget it, I feel so uncomfortable. I don't know what it is. Why are you here?"

"I'm here to meet His Majesty."

"Oh." Zhu Houzhao said: "It just so happens that I and Wei Fang are going to see the lord, go together, go together."

Looking at these worried ministers, Zhu Houzhao was happy. He liked to look at others in a mess. Even Master Liu looked unbearable, which was even more interesting.

Zhu Houzhao took steps and was about to leave.

Suddenly, someone said, "Your Highness, the Prince, the Commander Fang, this new house...haha... I want to buy one."

The person who spoke was Liu Zhengjing.

Liu Zhengjing regretted it. If he had known this, he would not have retired the house. Now it seems that it is better to have a new house.

Well, just think that you lost interest money, and borrow again.

Zhu Houzhao raised her eyebrows, and this was what he was waiting for.

Looking at the officials, many people looked at themselves with a longing look on their faces.

Zhu Houzhao coughed and was about to say something...

Fang Jifan was beside him, but he was honest and said with a honest look on his face: "The new house... I'm afraid there is no new supply in the temporary plan, but there are some buildings that need to be grabbed."

These tail buildings were exactly what faded out of Liu Zhengjing and others who retreated.

"Okay, OK." Liu Zhengjing said with a smile: "Tomorrow, the lower-ranking officials will bring a deposit, and the last building will be the last building, it doesn't matter."

"But..." Fang Jifan's face turned slightly red. After all, he is a person with a very positive outlook and has a sense of morality. Therefore... he repeatedly said: "Recently, due to the fluctuations in raw materials, the market prospects are promising, and the weather has become warmer, people's lives have generally improved, the domestic demand market has grown sharply, artificial growth has shrunk supply in the land market, and purchasing power..."

“…”

Liu Zhengjing and others stretched their necks and listened patiently.

But... I can't understand a word.

What does it mean?

Liu Zhengjing smiled. This commander is really good at joking. He sometimes speaks very cutely. Although sometimes he is a little violent, he seems to be really conscientious when he does things in the new city. Haha, sometimes he sometimes has some awkward words. Of course, young people need to understand and be generous.

Liu Zhengjing smiled and said, "Prince Fang, please inform me what he wants to say."

Everyone held their breath and was waiting.

Fang Jifan said: "This... has increased the price..."

Increased...the price has increased!

In Liu Zhengjing's heart, ten thousand grass and mud horses ran by.

Prices start on the ground.

Shameless.

He took a deep breath and his face was very unnatural.

In fact, like him, there are many people with unnatural expressions.

Is there anything like this? Do you think your land and house are made of gold?

Fang Jifan said embarrassedly: "It's just that before the heavy rain, it was 13,000 taels, but now it is 19,000 taels, and only 6,000 taels are added..."

Liu Zhengjing's heart... suddenly felt like she was cut by a knife.

When he bought the house, he spent 11,000 taels. Although it rose to 13,000 taels in the market, in fact, because of the quality problems, people were talking about it, so there was a price but no market. He resolutely returned his five acres of land at the original price, hoping to stop the loss in time.

But now, compared with his 11,000 taels, the price has not only plummeted by 6,000 taels, but this is eight,000 taels, a shameless thing!

This is equivalent to returning 55,000 taels of silver at the beginning, but if he wanted to buy the original house, he had to prepare 95,000 taels. Yes, Liu Zhengjing is a clan with a great family and a big family. In his hometown and the entire mansion, he was also the most important family, but... he could not afford the difference of 40,000 taels of silver in the middle.

Liu Zhengjing almost fainted.

It's only a few days ago, I've lost so much.

Even if you don’t have to earn so much wealth in your life.

He couldn't help but look gloomy.

The other ministers were also furious.

They looked at Fang Jifan hatefully.

In fact, even Zhu Houzhao was a little confused. Lao Fang...is...so ruthless, this is killing people to death.

"Hmph, who would buy it so expensive? I don't believe it, and some people are willing to spend this money."

Liu Zhengjing sneered.

Fang Jifan smiled bitterly: "If you want to be cheap, you can be remote. From here, facing five miles south, I will offer you an 8,000 taels per acre for the same house, how about it?"

“…”

"If you are a little further away, from here to the south, ten miles, I will make the decision, three thousand taels! Liu Shixue, you don't think about it. The house you want to buy is to have elementary school, primary school, hospital, and a large theater next to it. The Daming Palace is only a short distance away. Not far away, the future Central City Military and Ma Si is nearby. This... is not worth the price, so you can just go back to Beijing to buy it. Two or three thousand taels in the inner city are enough. Outside the city, one or two hundred taels, and there are such houses."

"..." Liu Zhengjing looked sad.

Black... It's really dark.

Go back to the capital to buy it?

joke.

This time the capital has become a hell on earth. If there is no new city, it would be fine. It was under the feet of the emperor. Now it was flooded with floods. In any case, the court would spend a lot of money and food to repair and sell iron, and restore the capital to its original state.

But now is different from the past.

Your Majesty has arrived at the Daming Palace, and countless ministries and government offices will be arranged here in the future. This heavy rain has proved that the capital is a bottomless pit that is easily affected by disasters. I don’t know how much money to spend on food to maintain it every year. The court is willing to spend money to throw it into the repair of the old city, right?

Eight out of ten, I barely repaired some places, but I had to let the others go.

Once the resources invested by the court were insufficient, even if the flood receded, the housing prices in the old city would not have known how much they had plummeted, nor how far they had been destroyed.

Liu Zhengjing is not stupid, you can understand this truth just by thinking about it.

Even if you open the account book of the Ministry of Revenue, you can tell at a glance how much it costs to repair the streets and mansions every year, as well as to maintain the palace.
