I embezzled 100,000 taels at the beginning, and the empress begged me to be more greedy

Chapter 218 Real Estate



Chapter 218 Real Estate

Jiang Zuo stopped and stretched out five fingers.

"Five hundred taels."

Wang Yuanwai pretended to be at a disadvantage and said, "Then consider it as a favor to Lord Jiang. Five hundred taels is five hundred taels!"

"Okay then." Jiang Zuo nodded calmly, turned around and ordered, "Master Guo, go sign the contract with Mr. Wang and get the land deed now."

"Yes, my lord."

Master Guo leaned forward and said.

"Mr. Wang, I wonder if you know anyone else who is selling a house in Jiangzhou City. I am interested in purchasing a few more."

Jiang Zuo then said to Mr. Wang.

Wang Yuanwai originally felt that he had suffered a little loss, but now his brows were more smiling, and he said, "Master Jiang, I have another mansion, why don't you go and take a look."

"Walk."

Jiang Zuo took a step forward.

On the way, Master Guo asked in confusion, "Sir, the mansion we just bought is big enough, and I feel that 500 taels is a bit of a loss, why do you want to buy another one?"

"Go and take a look first before talking."

Jiang Zuo said calmly.

We came to the second mansion, which was slightly smaller than the previous one, but not bad either.

"Three hundred taels, no more."

Jiang Zuo gave a price directly.

Wang Yuanwai looked embarrassed again and gritted his teeth: "Deal."

Just like that, Jiang Zuo bought two houses as soon as he arrived in Jiangzhou City.

……

Half an hour later.

Restaurant.

Wang Yuanwai walked in with a swagger and shouted as soon as he entered the door: "My son, bring me three pounds of good wine and half a roast goose."

Others also knew Wang Yuanwai, and seeing that he was beaming with joy and looked quite proud, they couldn't help but ask, "Wang Yuanwai, why are you so happy?"

"We have a big shot coming to Jiangzhou City. Don't you know about this?"

Mr. Wang sat down with a smile on his face.

"I've heard a little bit about it. I heard it was the Jiang Patrol Envoy, Jiang Zuo, right?"

"That's him."

"What's there to be happy about?"

"This person just arrived in Jiangzhou City and bought two mansions from me. My two mansions are old, but I didn't expect to be able to sell them for 800 taels."

From the very beginning, Mr. Wang raised the price. As long as it was not less than half the amount, he would not lose money.

"No wonder you are so happy. It's strange that the Jiang Patrol Envoy bought two mansions as soon as he arrived in Jiangzhou. What's his intention?"

"Who knows."

"I also have a vacant mansion. Why don't you ask Mr. Wang to contact this Jiang Patrol Envoy for me?"

Now, the entire Jiangzhou City has begun to discuss this mysterious Jiang Patrol Envoy.

……

Inside the mansion, many servants were busy.

When you move into a new home, there are many things to do.

Jiang Zuo had just moved his things and was now sitting under the pavilion to rest.

Master Guo came to Jiang Zuo's side, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "Sir, to be honest, this house is not worth five hundred taels at all. Many of the items here are old."

This small town is not a place like Anding County or the capital where every inch of land is valuable.

Although the house was quite spacious and luxuriously decorated, in the opinion of Master Guo, it was not worth the price of five hundred taels.

“It will be worth the price pretty soon.”

Jiang Zuo said.

What he was attracted by was not the mansion itself, but its location in the city center.

Nowadays, good places are most suitable for real estate development.

Jiang Zuo was preparing to take over all the mansions in this area.

"Why do you say that, sir?"

Master Guo didn't understand.

"As long as there are more people, land will become scarce, and housing will naturally be scarce. As long as I monopolize the mansions in these areas at low prices in advance, I can sell them for a good price as long as I renovate them a little bit."

Jiang Zuo said.

Master Guo said, "But sir, this Jiangzhou City has a population of only 10,000 at most."

Jiang Zuo said, "It seems that you are still on the first level. The situation is tense now. There will definitely be a war between Yan and Chen in the future. After the war, many innocent people will be implicated, and these people can only become refugees. These refugees may have the opportunity to pour into this Jiangzhou City. When the time comes, we will set up factories and shops here, which will drive the development of a series of industries and develop the local economy. Only when this place is prosperous, low prices will rise, and then we can make a lot of money again."

Although Jiangzuo is extremely wealthy now, who would complain about having too much money?

Jiang Zuo is still quite confident about the future of Jiangzhou City.

Jiangzhou City is not only a small coastal city, but also the outlet of Qinjiang River. It has an extremely advantageous geographical location and is well connected. If it can be built into a trading port in the future, it will definitely be able to develop vigorously.

As for population and labor, as long as the State of Chen is in chaos, Jiangzhou City will definitely be able to attract more people.

Jiangzuo has considerable experience in resettling disaster victims and refugees.

In the past, the Anding County area was prosperous because it took in a lot of refugees and obtained a large amount of cheap labor.

Those homeless refugees will work very hard if they are given just a bite to eat.

Master Guo listened to Jiang Zuo's words with a look of surprise on his face. He pulled his chin and said after a moment: "I don't understand."

"Forget it, I won't waste any more time talking to you. Go get Qin Yu."

Jiang Zuo said as he made a cup of tea.

After a while, Qin Yu came in front of Jiang Zuo.

"are you looking for me?"

Qin Yu asked softly.

Jiang Zuo put down the teacup, took out a key from his arms, and said, "This is the key to the mansion. It's just across the street. I'll let Master Guo take you there later. You can stay here for the time being. If anyone from your Qin family comes to seek refuge, they will be settled in Jiangzhou City. If you need anything, just come to me."

Qin Yu took the key, lowered his head suddenly, and whispered: "Why are you helping me so much?"

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Jiang Zuo didn't understand for a moment. He stared at Qin Yu's evasive eyes. He always felt that there was something strange about her these past two days.

Looking at Qin Yu's petite and pretty face with a bit of shyness, Jiang Zuo seemed to understand everything.

Oh no, could it be...

"Why should I help you?" Jiang Zuo thought for a moment and replied, "Because I still want to use you. Is this reason enough?"

Qin Yu stared at the key in his hand, stunned for a moment, and after a moment, he said softly: "Are you really just using me?"

Hearing this, Jiang Zuo was also stunned.

At this moment, a scene from a certain night suddenly emerged in his mind.

It was just an honest mistake, wasn't it?

"Oh no, why did I think of this?" Jiang Zuo thought to himself. "If Siyue knew about this, it would be very bad. Calm down..."

Jiang Zuo forced himself to calm down and said, "I have something to take care of. I'll leave first. You can come to me if you have any questions."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Qin Yu remained silent, staring at Jiang Zuo's back, with complex thoughts in her eyes.
