After being forced into the palace, I became the tyrant's favorite

Chapter 31 02 Find a backer (modified as above)

The three of them went down to North Street. There was one official road and three small roads in the capital. Needless to say, the official roads were actually not small, but compared to the bustling main street, this side seemed deserted.

In order to distinguish the three trails, the people in Beijing named them North Street, West Street and East Street.

The North Street they went to was farther than East Street and West Street.

The three of them walked along the way, and there were very few pedestrians. Occasionally, farmers who came into the city set up stalls here. It was close to the canal, and boats docked from time to time.

Some small vendors were selling gadgets by the lake, Wen Yao looked all the way over, and stopped at an attic.

"This one is not bad." Wen Yao stopped and said.

Chang San looked bewildered, how did the young master see that this dilapidated building is not bad?

Compared with the others, this shop is really dilapidated.

Wen Yao disagreed, and signaled Chang San to knock on the door.

The door opened from the inside, and the visitor looked to be in his sixties, with white beard and hair, and a hunched back. He raised his head and narrowed his eyes into slits, looking at Chang San. Chang San explained why he came.

Finally asked: "Your son wants to buy this pavilion?"

Chang San nodded and looked back at his young master. Wen Yao saw his eyes begging for help, and stepped forward to greet the old lady: "To be honest, old man, I heard that your restaurant is going to be sold out, so I came here specially."

When I came here, I heard two small vendors talking about a restaurant on North Street that there was suddenly a problem with the drinks, and they were planning to go out.

The old man was probably in charge of the restaurant, so he invited them into the house upon hearing the words.

The inside of the house looked more spacious than the outside, and the room was deep and long. The steward took them to the lobby to sit down.

Wen Yao saw that many tables and chairs were covered with a thin layer of dust, and it seemed that they had not been open for a while.

The steward looked up quietly, taking all the expressions on their faces into his eyes, only Wen Yao didn't see any disgust on his face.

Entering the house, Wen Yao was surprised to see everything. He rubbed his hands secretly. There are many good things here. Take the wooden table and wooden wall as an example. Its material is pear blossom wood.

His dark eyes rolled, and he turned sideways to the steward sitting on the other side and said, "Your place is pretty good, I guess there are many people who want to buy it?"

If it was the same in the past, but now, the steward smiled wryly and said, "My lord, you must have heard the rumor..."

The steward has worked in the restaurant for more than ten years. From Rongxi to depression, he has also changed from high-spirited to haggard.

The owner was forced to make the final decision-sell the restaurant at a low price.

Wen Yao didn't like to dawdle, he discussed the price with the steward after clarifying his purpose, and finally bought the restaurant for 100 taels. Wen Yao didn't have that much money, so the steward asked the accountant to draw up the IOU and the house resale agreement .

"When the young master collects all the silver, I will offer the land deed with both hands, old man."

"Don't worry about the manager, I will make up the remaining taels in a few days." Wen Yao gave a deposit of 20 taels, and left with the IOU and the agreement.

The steward nodded repeatedly and sent the three of them out the door.

On the way back to the palace, Wen Yao asked Chang San in a low voice, "How much money do you have left?"

"A total of 20 taels, I gave it all to the young master just now." Chang San said dryly, I really don't know why the young master fell in love with that restaurant.The inside is full of dust, the outside is also full of traces, the walls are weathered, and the baffles made of wood have holes pecked out by insects in many places.

A dilapidated house is worth 100 taels.

Wen Yao saw that he was full of anger, and sighed slightly. There are many good things there. Who said that the wood is broken, and it will be fine if a layer of limestone is applied to the outside.

There is no cement in Dachen. Poor people use yellow mud to build adobe walls, or burn the shells of giant clams to make lime. Rich people build walls with bricks and stones, and a layer of limestone or dolomitic limestone is painted on the outside. Of course, the latter is Dolomitic limestone is used in especially wealthy families, such as the Dachen Palace.

Wen Yao is penniless now, and the remaining 80 taels must be collected within three days. He looked around and couldn't help sighing when he thought of the road to wealth in the future. There was a shortage of funds before this started. Thinking of the damage to the house It would take at least dozens of taels of repairs to the extent that it would be very distressing.

This won't work, he has to find a backer, otherwise he won't even have enough money to buy a house.

Li Quan followed Wen Yao in a muffled voice, but Wen Yao didn't make a sound and he didn't make a sound. When they arrived at the gate of the palace, they showed the token to the gatekeeper, and the three of them entered the palace. Wen Yao immediately ran to Mu Yao Palace.

Wen Yao hurried into the front hall, but Ye Chu was not there, and he went to the bedroom at the back, but still saw no one.

He took a few steps to the entrance of the main hall, pulled a little eunuch and asked, "Where is the emperor?"

The little eunuch was startled by his rude behavior, and tremblingly replied, "The emperor, the emperor is in the imperial study."

Wen Yao immediately let go of his hand, and hurriedly rushed to the imperial study.

Why didn't he think of getting rich with the emperor, the emperor, there are piles of gold and silver, he borrowed it first, no, do business with him, the emperor is so smart, he will definitely agree.

Wen Yao silently praised his ingenuity.

Apart from a few eunuchs, there are guards guarding the imperial study room.

When the guards saw someone rushing over, they immediately drew their sabers to face each other. After seeing the person clearly, they put the sabers back into their sheaths, bowed their heads and remained silent.
