Chapter 8 Purchase of Property
Yu Xiao came to the Dajing world again.
He has now mastered the practice of the Spring Thunder Fist, and practicing martial arts does not require the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Unless he encounters any problems in his practice, he will focus on this most of his time.
It is impossible to become an entry-level warrior by cultivating blood qi in two months.
But it is easy to take advantage of a hundred times time difference.
"Brother Xiao!"
A gentle young man wearing glasses found him.
Yu Ruqian, the youngest son of Yu Qinghai and grandson of the old patriarch Yu Guotai, was sent by his father to help with matters related to purchasing a house because he was about the same age as Yu Xiao and was educated and could read and write.
Ever since I announced that I wanted to buy a house.
Several wealthy families and landowners approached us.
There was one named "Mr. Wang" who was more active.
Mr. Wang's grandfather passed the imperial examination and was quite well-known in Meixian. Although this generation has fallen on hard times, they still have a mansion in Xiaohe Town, Meixian.
Xiaohe Town is located between Meixian County and Yujia Village. It is a relatively prosperous town with a population of over 20,000.
It is only four or five miles to Yujia Village or Meixian.
Home ownership and life are very convenient.
The power structure is also simple.
Yu Xiao was very satisfied.
"How did the conversation go?"
"Mr. Wang agreed to sell the mansion for 6000 yuan, but there is one additional condition..."
"What conditions?"
"The Wang family has another 9000 acres of land nearby, part of which is cultivated by our Yu family. We hope to sell it together with the house to Brother Xiao. The total price is yuan!"
Nine thousand yuan!
Yu Ruqian taught in a private school in Meixian County.
The monthly salary is only 1 yuan!
Even if you don’t eat or drink, it will take you 416 years to earn that much!
Yu Xiao was happy to hear that.
He has been busy not only practicing martial arts but also mining recently.
There are also plans to purchase a batch of spiritual rice and spiritual tea tree seeds for planting.
Although the spiritual energy in this world is extremely thin, the quality of spiritual rice and tea is definitely not as good as that of the main world, but no matter what, it is definitely better than ordinary rice and tea, and can be easily opened up the market.
This is what it means when someone gives you a pillow just when you are sleepy.
A large house with 9000 acres of land, priced at yuan, is this expensive or not? Anyway, in Yu Xiao's opinion, it is not expensive, just the basic salary of a miner for three days.
But he also doesn't want to be seen as a fool with a lot of money.
After some bargaining that day, the price was agreed upon at 8150 yuan.
Dajing has a standard process for purchasing mansions and land. After the buyer and seller negotiate through an intermediary, the seller drafts a sales contract and the buyer reviews it. When the buyer has no objection to the draft, it will enter the formal signing stage.
Yu Xiao as the buyer.
According to the custom, a banquet was held to entertain Mr. Wang and his relatives and neighbors.
The fort chief, village chief, and other people were invited to the scene for notarization.
A county clerk is also asked to write the contract based on the draft. The seller and the notary public present need to affix their seal or signature on the contract in turn to confirm the validity of the contract.
The contract was quickly delivered to Yu Xiao.
The general content is as follows:
-
The seller (Wang Fu), who is in urgent need of money, voluntarily sells his large house located in Xiaohe Town, Meixian County, Guangyue Province, along with the land and the houses thereon, to Yu Xiao as his permanent property.
The boundaries of the mansion and the fertile land are listed in detail as follows:
Dongzhi: ... (omitted)
South to: ... (omitted)
North to: ... (omitted)
West to: ... (omitted)
The four directions are clearly defined and have all been measured.
The current verification is correct, and the ownership is clear and undisputed.
The two parties agreed on a price of 8,150 yuan, to be paid within three days.
After the transaction is completed, the buyer is allowed to build and live in the house, and there is no regret. This is a voluntary agreement between the two parties, and there is no coercion. All the previous deeds will be handed over to the buyer for collection, in case there is no evidence in the future, so this is established as a proof.
It was established on June 2, the 78th year of Emperor Dajing Qian’s reign.
(The seller, buyer, middleman, village head, and fort chief sign and seal respectively.)
----
Very rigorous and standardized.
There is no problem with the land deed and house deed.
Yu Xiao readily paid 8802 yuan.
8150 yuan is the amount for buying the house and land, and he needs to bear 7% of the deed tax of Dajingchao. In addition, 1% is the notarization fee and the commission of the relevant clerks. The former is 570 yuan and the latter is 82 yuan.
That’s all done!
Finally I have my own house!
This is a rather luxurious two-courtyard house.
The exterior is simple and elegant, with blue bricks, black tiles, flying eaves and upturned corners, which is quite ancient.
The outer courtyard is spacious, with several lychee and pomelo trees, as well as a well, a pond, a pavilion, and two side rooms on each side, which are where the servants work and live.
The inner courtyard is a standard bungalow courtyard.
The main house is on the north side, which has a living room, bedroom, study and other functional areas.
There are two rooms in the east and west wings, which can be used for family members to live in, or provide storage, warehouse, and kitchen functions. The total area is about 680 square meters. Although it is not luxurious and magnificent as a small town mansion, it is definitely of high standards in the local area and very comfortable to live in.
three days later.
Put up a new plaque.
The four words "Yu Family Mansion" are written on it.
The whole house has been cleaned and repaired.
This day is a perfect auspicious day for moving into a new house.
Yu Xiao officially announced his move and held a banquet at the best restaurant in town to entertain the folks from Yujia Village.
Crackling.
Firecrackers were set off all the way.
Yu Xiao specially spent dozens of dollars to hire a carriage and sedan chair to pick up the old patriarch and the older elders. The other one hundred or eighty young people followed behind, also holding their heads high and looking very majestic.
"Who is this? Such a grand ceremony!"
"It's Yu Xiao, the young master from Yujia Village. He just came back from overseas. His family made a lot of money!"
"How much is the big money? How does it compare to Master Wang and Master Li?"
"Bah, a few local rich guys, you think you can compete with the multinational bosses? Young Master Yu spent nearly ten thousand dollars to buy all the mansions and land of the Wang family without even blinking an eye!"
"Hiss! How rich is this!"
"..."
Yu Xiao didn't hear the discussion.
But he knew that he must be famous in Xiaohe Town.
Because new information is constantly emerging from the stone tablet in the ancient temple space.
【Reputation +1! 】
【Reputation +1! 】
【Reputation +1! 】
【…】
The reputation value is approaching 50 points.
At this rate it won't be long before we'll be upgraded.
The banquet was served, with roast suckling pig, crispy roast goose, braised lamb, steamed yellow croaker...all kinds of delicious dishes. Where had the villagers seen all these before?
Everyone was swallowing their saliva!
Yu Xiao raised his glass and said, "Everyone has been busy these days, especially the uncles who helped with the moving and repairs. I am very grateful. Let me toast to you all!"
Yu Qinghai: "Hey, we are a family and we don't have to talk behind each other's backs. Ruqian is a trouble to Xiao!"
After saying that, he quickly winked at Yu Ruqian.
Yu Ruqian quickly raised his glass and said somewhat stiffly: "Brother Xiao, I will follow you from now on!"
"Easy to say!"
Yu Xiao will inevitably need some help when he moves into the mansion.
Yu Ruqian was well-educated and had a very good character, so he was brought here to be an accountant.
He is not only the most educated and well-read young man in Yujia Village, but also the grandson of the old patriarch Yu Guotai. This move undoubtedly greatly strengthens his relationship with the family.
After three rounds of drinking.
Yu Xiao asked: "I just returned to China and finally settled down. I haven't had time to repay my fellow villagers yet. I heard that many of them are renting my land?"
The old patriarch said quickly: "Mr. Wang is one of the largest landlords in Xiaohe Town. His fields are just close to Yujia Village, so..."
"Understood!"
Yu Xiao nodded and said, "Then, from today onwards, for at least five years, the Yu family will be exempt from paying rent for farming, and the rent for the villagers in other villages will also be reduced by half. What do you think, old clan leader?"
"what?!"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
An elder of the tribe could not help but ask in a trembling voice: "Is this... serious?"
Yu Xiao smiled and said, "This is nothing to me. It's a benefit to the folks, so how can it be fake?"
【Reputation +1! 】
【Reputation +1! 】
Yu Xiao's heart was lifted.
This move can indeed increase your reputation.
The villagers' eyes were filled with tears; this was such a great joyous event.
One of the biggest burdens for farmers these days is land rent.
The old patriarch was naturally happy, but at the same time he had some worries.
