Chapter 115 Everyone is in their place

Yun Xi asked housekeeper Cao whether all the servants had been settled. Knowing that they were all arranged in the back room, she stopped asking about it.

At night, Yunxi lay on the bed, blinking her big almond eyes.

Sure enough, I slept too much during the day and couldn’t sleep at night.

Oh, forget it. I can’t sleep, so I’d better find something to do.

As soon as he thought about it, his consciousness entered the space. Looking at the things inside, there were mostly cloth and food, and it felt like he could open a shop. He had to find a way to get all these things out of the space.

It is definitely not possible to bring the things directly to your home. You have to find a secluded house in the city to use as a warehouse. First put the things in the warehouse, as if they were purchased by yourself, and then have someone transport the things back from the warehouse.

When I saw all the food I had bought before in the space, I just wanted to hold my forehead. There were still dozens of big meat buns, more than a dozen roast chickens and roast ducks, and quite a few cakes of various colors.

Fortunately, the space has a fresh-keeping function, otherwise it would have gone bad long ago.

Looking at the food, Yun Xi would have been greedy in the past. But tonight, because the cook cooked delicious food, she ate a lot and now she is not hungry at all.

I also ate a lot of meat dishes, which made me feel greasy. If there were some fruit to relieve the greasiness, I would have eaten a few more bites.

Thinking of this, Yun Xi's eyes fell on the baskets of peaches in the space. With a thought, a big, red peach appeared in her hand.

I put it under my nose and smelled it. It smells really good.

A thought, then he took it back.

Forget it, it’s better not to eat peaches this late in the night and just go to bed.

I stopped checking the space and closed my eyes to take a nap. Before I knew it, I fell asleep.

The next day.

Everyone, please take your positions.

Yun Qi and Yun Huaian took Yun Zheng to the city to look after a shop. The one who drove the carriage for the three of them was the newly hired coachman, named Liu San, who drove the carriage quite steadily.

After they left, Yun Xi asked Yun Yan to look around to see if there were any raw materials such as bamboo or beets and sugarcane. She then asked Guo Wei to drive the carriage to take her to the city.

The carriage was moving at a moderate speed, and in less than a quarter of an hour the towering city walls could be seen in the distance.

The city walls here look taller and thicker than those in Xiemu County and Fuchuan County.

When she got closer, Yun Xi saw three big words hanging on the tall city gate: Guangxin Prefecture.

The capital of Cangwu County was located in Guangxin. Not only that, the governor of Jiaozhou was also in Guangxin Prefecture. The most important thing was that the Southern King established his capital here.

Therefore, many dignitaries gathered here.

In addition, Guangxin's unique geographical location made it an important transportation hub in Lingnan. Guangxin Prefecture also became the political, economic and cultural center of the Lingnan region. There were many merchants traveling from the south to the north, and the city was very prosperous.

The soldiers at the city gate also checked very carefully.

People from the counties of Cangwu County did not need to pay copper coins to enter the city, but to enter the provincial capital, each person had to pay 3 copper coins. The carriage was counted separately and was more expensive than the person, costing 6 copper coins.

Yun Xi and Guo Wei paid a total of 12 copper coins for each carriage, and the customs clearance documents were carefully checked before they were allowed to pass.

"Uncle Guo, luckily you brought the customs clearance documents, otherwise I wouldn't have known and wouldn't have been able to get in."

Guo Wei gently waved the whip, and his loud voice immediately attracted the people around him.

"Haha, when we entered the city yesterday, Butler Cao reminded us to bring our customs documents with us every time."

I see. Butler Cao is quite thoughtful.

After Yun Xi entered the city, she first walked around the city to see the prosperity of the capital city, and then asked Guo Wei to take her to a dental clinic.

She wanted to buy or rent a secluded yard, no matter how big or small it was. There were several houses that met this requirement, and Yunxi liked the first yard that the broker sent to take them to see, and she immediately booked it.

This is a two-story courtyard at the end of an alley in the south of the city. It seems that all the people living here are officials and officials. The street is not only nice, but also very quiet.

However, this yard is for sale and not for rent. The original owner was transferred to another place for work and will never come back, so he wants to sell this yard.

"what price?"

The dentist saw something interesting and said, "I smiled so hard that my teeth showed but not my eyes."

"Girl, the owner of this yard is in a hurry to sell it, and the price is very affordable. This is the only price." As he said this, he held up three fingers.

Yun Xi was stunned. These three fingers definitely didn't represent thirty taels. So the asking price was 300 taels?

Yun Xi held her forehead with her hand. The housing prices in this city were surprisingly so high.

Thinking of the courtyard on her farm...

Well, the courtyards on the farm are much cheaper. Moreover, one is in a good location outside the city and the other is in the city, so the prices are really incomparable.

"I really want this house. Please tell me a fair price. If the price is right, I will take it directly."

"Oh girl, this price is really fair. If the owner wasn't in a hurry to sell, such a nice yard would have cost at least 20 or 30 taels more."

Yun Xi looked at Guo Wei, who immediately shouted, "You can't lie to our young lady. If I find out that your price is unfair, I will bring people to destroy your dental shop."

As he spoke, Guo Wei shook his big fist in a protest. With his burly figure and full beard, he looked more like a bandit from a mountain than a groom.

The servant of the pawnbroker hurriedly assured respectfully, "I wouldn't dare, absolutely not. Just ask around, this price is really fair as it can't be fairer. If I dare to deceive you, just go to the pawnbroker and find me."

Seeing this, Yun Xi believed the price. She gave the silver to Guo Wei and asked him to go with the broker to get the house deed done. She waited in the house.

The people from the dental clinic naturally had no objection and took Guo Wei away.

After everyone left, Yun Xi closed the gate and walked around the yard again. There were only two entrances to the yard, but there were quite a few rooms. The main yard plus the east and west wing rooms had a total of 9 rooms. There was also a small courtyard on the side, and the environment was pretty good.

She thought that when her elder brother and his friends did business in the city in the future, if it was too late, they would not have to go back and could just stay here.

After Yunxi walked around, she temporarily chose a room for herself. She touched the furniture and found it was dust-free. It seemed that the owner had just moved in not long ago.

She directly took out several pieces of cotton cloth from the space, in cyan, crescent white, pink, and light blue. After thinking for a while, she took out a box of pearl hairpins, all of which were of ordinary quality, but the styles were pretty good.

When the time comes, I will give these things to her mother, Fourth Aunt, Yunfang and Yun Qiaoer, and they won’t be too eye-catching when they wear them.

Yun Xi waited here for about an hour, during which time she drank the space well water once and ate a peach, before she waited for Guo Wei to come back.

"Miss, it's all done. Here is the deed. Please keep it."

Yun Xi took the house deed, looked at it, folded it, and put it into her sleeve.

She picked up the jewelry box, pointed to the cloth on the table and said, "Put the cloth on the carriage, and let's go back."

Guo Wei responded, picked up all the cloth, and followed Yun Xi.

"Girl, if you want to buy something, you should wait for me to go with you. Don't go out alone in the future."

Yun Xi nodded obediently and agreed, but only she knew what she was thinking in her heart.
