Chapter 1832: Renzijuan Grand View Garden, King Shou’s desire to improve
Seeing Feng Ziying speaking so casually, Baochai felt a little at ease, hesitated for a moment and then said: "Then my husband means to buy the second mansion, but do you want to renovate it?"
Feng Ziying understood the meaning of Baochai's words and smiled, "What do you mean, sister?"
Baochai shook his head and said nothing.
Feng Ziying then said seriously: "Since it has to be bought at such a high price, of course it needs to be renovated. Then the provincial villa in the garden must be renovated. The archways and houses must be renovated. In the future..."
Before Feng Ziying could say anything, Bao Qin took the next step: "Does your husband really want to move there?"
To be honest, Feng Ziying hasn’t thought about it yet.
Grand View Garden is certainly good, and for a family with a big family living in the same house, it will certainly bring a different mood to the old place again, and it is indeed suitable for life, but this means that three separate houses may become mixed living.
This is probably also a psychological challenge for Shen Yixiu, Baochai and Daiyu, but from their own perspective, this can prevent the gap between the three houses from getting deeper and deeper, making it difficult for them to live in the middle.
But can moving into a garden solve these problems? I'm afraid it's not that easy. Thinking of this, Feng Ziying hesitated again.
"I haven't thought about it yet, but my initial idea is to move there. As our family will definitely have more children in the future, this side is still a little smaller, and the side of Rongning Second Mansion is much wider. If I don't buy it, I will be It's fine if someone else buys it. I'm afraid that if it's left there and no one cares about it, it will be completely destroyed after a few years." Feng Ziying sighed and said: "In fact, the old lady meant the same thing. The Jia family must not be able to do it anymore. Now that we live there, instead of letting others ruin it or letting it be abandoned and abandoned, it is better for the Feng family to buy it and keep it as a memory. The younger sisters can also live back there. I remember how the younger sisters lived there like they were among the gods. , even Brother Yu is extremely envious,..."
Both Rongning and Ning Mansion have specially diverted streams from outside, so if they are deserted, they will fall into disrepair within two years. For example, if no one takes care of the palaces and houses inside, they will fall into disrepair in three to five years. It's such a pity.
When Feng Ziying said this, Baochai, Baoqin and Yingchun couldn't help but feel excited.
To say that the most pleasant stage of living is undoubtedly the time when we first moved into the Grand View Garden. There are lush vegetation, green peaks and rockeries, rows of pavilions and pavilions, and the blending of mountains and rivers. It can be said to be a magnificent sight. Unfortunately, this kind of time is too short. He proposed to establish a poetry club, but after a while of quarrels, the Rongguo government was financially strapped, and everyone lost their thoughts. Not long after, Baochai and Baoqin got married, and Wang Xifeng also ran away from Li, and everything disappeared immediately.
So when talking about this time, Baochai and Baoqin also miss it very much.
"What Mr. Xianggong said makes sense, but if both Rongning and Ningfus buy it, it will be too big. Even if it can accommodate thousands of people, it will be more than enough." Baochai thought for a while and then said softly.
"The area of Ningguo Mansion is smaller, and mainly the area behind Huifang Garden is larger. If the Grand View Garden and the area behind Huifang Garden are connected, the water surface will be much larger. In this way, the overall area will be larger. It is spacious. At that time, some useless old buildings can be demolished and more places such as lawns, woods, bamboo forests and water surfaces can be retained..."
Feng Ziying was thinking about it. Baochai saw that her husband had already had this idea, so she stopped talking. She glanced at Baoqin and Yingchun, both of whom had expressions of hope on their faces, and then realized that everyone was still looking forward to it. Move over.
It’s actually a little too small here.
Not to mention the Yunchuan Uncle's Mansion, even the larger Changfang Hulunhou Mansion is actually a three-story courtyard. It is a little crowded now that there is only one child. The Yunchuan Uncle's Mansion is even smaller. The only bigger one is that of General Shenwu's Mansion, but there is still a large family of mother-in-law and several concubines living there. If Daiyu marries there and takes Miaoyu with her, it will probably be even more crowded.
Moreover, the Grand View Garden also carries everyone’s best memories of time. Every mountain, water, plant, tree, pavilion and pavilion there can evoke infinite good memories.
This life must be remembered.
In addition to Baoyu who lives there, he is probably the man who visits the most in the Grand View Garden, including Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Hengwu Garden, Qiu Shuangzhai, Zhujin Pavilion, Lotus Champs, as well as Congcui Temple and Aojingxi Pavilion. One place can evoke countless memories.
"Ms. sir, I wonder how much silver it will cost to buy the second residence?" Xue Baochai was a little worried about the price, "But didn't the Grand View Garden cost 400,000 taels of silver? If we add Rongning's second residence, wouldn't it cost five hundred thousand taels of silver?" One hundred thousand taels of silver?"
Xue Baoqin laughed out loud, "Sister, how is that possible? Not to mention that this is a government sale, it must be discounted, and my husband also said that the Jinchengfang where Rongning Street is located is far less than the Great and Small Shiyong There are a lot of things going on in the markets such as Nanxunfang, Baodafang, and Jiqingfang that are close to the palace. In addition, they are inspected and sold, and there are illegal buildings that need to be renovated. This is why there are so many things going on. How many people are willing to buy, and there are so many houses for sale this time, there is so much room to choose from, why would people choose this one? The locations of houses like Wang's and Niu's are much better than those on Rongning Street, right? ?”
Feng Ziying slightly nodded, "Baoqin is right, and it is said that it cost 400,000 yuan to build the Grand View Garden, but I estimate that at least 100,000 yuan was stolen by others, and 200,000 yuan is already the limit, besides this kind of Who would recognize the cost of building a garden? Everyone has different preferences. What you like to admire may not be what I like. So if you say the garden is worth 400,000 yuan, and someone else thinks it is 100,000 yuan, it is not bad. That’s us, after all, we have been there for a long time and have developed feelings over time, so we accept it. How could anyone else accept it? "
Baochai was surprised, "If the photographer and Baoqin said this, wouldn't this Rongning Second House not be sold for much money?"
"After all, Rong Ning's second residence is still so big. If there is no Grand View Garden, I estimate that Rong Guo Mansion can be sold for 60,000 to 70,000 taels of silver. Ning Guo Mansion is slightly smaller and costs about 50,000 to 60,000 taels of silver. The Grand View Garden is not easy to estimate. If you like it, I can give it to you. Two hundred thousand taels is not an exaggeration, and if you don’t like it, 80,000 taels is probably too much, so it still depends on the buyer’s mind, but I think the entire second house will not exceed 180,000 taels of silver.”
Feng Ziying said this, which made Xue Baoqin smack her tongue. She estimated that no matter how big the land was, Rongning's second residence plus the Grand View Garden would be worth seven or eighty thousand taels of silver. How could she listen to her husband and add all of them? If it costs only 180,000 taels of silver, it is really too cheap.
Of course, the key reason here is that no one is willing to buy it. No one is bidding, so the price really cannot be sold. The court is eager to use the money, so it cannot be left there forever. It is not necessarily impossible to sell it for a hundred thousand taels. .
The spring sale for the 10th year of Emperor Yonglong's reign has finally begun.
This time the sale is different from the previous one. Not only is it allowed to participate anonymously, but it also allows for the transfer of the property title and land title from the government temporarily after the purchase, and it can be extended to two years and can be handled with the sale payment voucher at any time.
There were too many mansions, but not many bidders. If Feng Ziying hadn't invited Jiangnan merchants in advance, Feng Ziying estimated that at least half of the more than 100 mansions and farms would be difficult to sell, which would be difficult for the court. Accepted.
Fortunately, thanks to this anonymous sales method and Feng Ziying's work behind the scenes, Jiangnan businessmen donated generously. Basically everyone wanted to buy one or two mansions and farms. Even so, one hundred and twenty There are still more than thirty mansions and farms left.
Daguan Tower.
Zhang Chi leaned on his chair and looked casually at the salesman on the opposite stage who was holding up a picture to introduce it, "Lai Da, is this the Rongning Second House you are talking about? Who would buy that **** place in Jinchengfang?" ?”
"Your Majesty, although the second residence of Rongning is located in Jinchengfang, you see, it is actually close to Xianyifang. In terms of convenience, it is also very close to the center of Xicheng. In addition, there is only a private alley between the two residences. If you like it, my lord, you can open it up so that the two houses of Rong Ning can be connected together. The two houses together occupy an extremely large area, which is extremely rare in our capital city. And you also know that the Grand View Garden is based on the imperial concubine’s marriage plan. It was built according to the specifications of the provincial villa at that time. It was so beautiful that it cost 400,000 taels of silver and almost bankrupted the Jia family..."
Lai Da spoke so loudly that Zhang Chi couldn't help but laugh, "Forty thousand taels to build a villa for a noble concubine to visit her relatives? Are you kidding me? If you can spend half the money, you will feel that you can compare with the palace. Isn't that right?" Knowing how many people are involved, probably only fools like the Jia family would be fooled..."
"Your Highness, you have never been there. If you had, you would know that every plant and tree there is made of silver. I have lived in Rongguo Mansion for so many years, and I understand it best. I dare to deceive you." Lai Da finally joined the sect of Shou Wang Zhang Chi, and now he is even more focused on showing off, so he tried his best to persuade him, "Especially the provincial villa took a lot of work, everything is almost brand new Yes, the imperial concubine stayed there twice when she came back to visit her relatives..."
"Oh, is it really what you said?" Thinking of Jia Yuanchun's beautiful dimples and plump figure, Zhang Chi felt hot in his heart and suddenly became interested, "Where did Concubine Jia live during her wedding visit? "
Because this sale is mainly about residences, we adopted a picture and text introduction in the morning, an on-site introduction in the afternoon, and the official sale in the evening, so the process is relatively lengthy, but considering that basically every residence and estate has It's a big deal worth tens of thousands taels, so it makes sense to be cautious.
