Chapter 107(1/2)

A fast horse rushed out of Chunhua Gate like lightning and headed towards Runan.

At the same time, under the morning light, a group of chariots slowly walked from the direction of Longshan. More than 20 knights, surrounded by several carriages, soon arrived outside the north gate of Xudu. Xiahou Lan urged her to step forward, took out a waist sign from her arms, and handed it to the guards of the city gate.

The tiger-head cloud pattern waist brand cast in bronze is the size of a palm.

The front is engraved with the words "Hu Ben", and the back is written with the four characters "Zhonglang General Dian". The guards saw the handwriting clearly on the waist plate and immediately showed a respectful look. This waist plate shows the origin of the chariot and horses. People from Hu Ben General Dian Wei, who dared not make things difficult for them. Who doesn't know that after Dian Wei came out of the prison, he was even more favored by Sikong Cao Cao, and he seemed to be indifferent to Cao Cao.

Xiahou Lan took back the waist sign and returned to the convoy.

With a shout, the convoy slowly started and entered the gate of Xudu...

Walking along Guanghuamen Street, he turned around and drove into a street. He stopped outside the door of a mansion and Xiahou Lan immediately dismounted.

"Young Master, we're here!"

Cao Peng, wearing a white dress and a big shirt, turned over and got off the horse.

I saw him wearing a long hair, wearing a green scarf, and stomping a pair of black shoes under his feet. He handed the reins to Xiahou Lan and walked up the steps.

"Afu, you guys are here!"

Wang Meng walked out of it, followed by Deng Juye and his wife.

Wang Mai and Deng Fan were at the end. Seeing Cao Peng, Wang Meng laughed and stepped forward, stretched out his palm-clad big hand, and rubbed Cao Peng's head.

"Afu, this house is really big...it is more than thirty more houses and a garden than our house in Jiyang."

Wang Mai took Cao Peng's arm and smiled.

Deng Fan nodded repeatedly, like a chicken pecking at rice.

Cao Peng smiled, turned around and walked down the steps, came to a carriage, and whispered: "Dad, mom...we're home!"

That’s right, this mansion is the new residence of Cao Peng’s family.

As Cao Peng's family gradually gained a foothold in Xudu, the idea of ​​establishing a self-employed family was as strong as one day. Dianjiawu Fort was very spacious, but in Cao Ji's heart, it was always someone else's home. Dian Wei was also very enthusiastic about their family, but it was not a long-term solution. Cao Ji's appointment as the supervisory order of Zhuye was determined. Therefore, Cao Ji's intention to buy a new home became stronger and stronger.

However, it is not easy to establish a career in Xudu's family.

Cao Ji's family is no better than before... When I was in Jiyang, I had a lot of plans and had only seven people, so I could settle down no matter how hard I was.

But now, there are twenty little people in Tufushan alone.

This is not counting Deng Juye's family of three... In the middle, there are almost thirty or forty people. In addition, the upcoming Guo Yong family has to be included. Guo Yong and his wife are three men and two women, and there are seven people... They can also be considered as the size of a middle-aged family. There are so many people, the house must be large! Otherwise, if so many people, it will be a problem to live in.

I used to rely on Dian Wei, but I didn’t think it was like that.

But once it is independent, all kinds of problems follow one after another.

Guo Yong is a very real person. He has started to become a role and helps Cao Ji sort out the files sent by Sikong Mansion and is familiar with the situation of Heyi Workshop.

But most of his family are still in Shangdang. Hou Sheng has ordered someone to send his family here. It is estimated that he will definitely arrive before the New Year...

Since they follow us, they can't be wronged.

Although Cao Ji was not from a high school, he could see the simple truth very clearly.

Under pressure from Cao Hong, Hou Sheng agreed to let Guo Yong come over. Theoretically, Guo Yong is now a retainer of Cao Ji. No matter how Cao Ji treats him, it is no problem. But Cao Ji is an honest person and knows that he needs to rely on Guo Yong in the future at Heyi Workshop... Speaking of which, everyone is a person who comes from hard days, so why do you need to distinguish between high and low?

Everyone’s background is not good!

Dian Wei’s Hu Ben’s Mansion is very big, but he is close to Cao’s Mansion, so it is hard to allocate it privately.

Xu Chu wanted to help, but he was also a big family and had a great career. There were thousands of children of clans who had no arrangements yet, so how could he have spared his energy to help?

However, the two families each gave twenty taels of horse hoof gold, which was used as a gift.

Forty taels of horse hoof gold are worth not low when converted on the market.

However, the prices of Xudu are relatively high, especially after a large number of aristocratic families poured in, the land prices in Xudu have risen steadily. The area of ​​Xudu is far inferior to that of Luoyang, so even if you have money, you may not be able to buy a desirable house, so you can only drag it down again and again.

Fortunately, at this time, Cao Hong asked someone to pass the message.

Uh... the person who passed the message was of course Cao Zhen.

"I have a residence in Xu, Beili, which I bought before my lord moved the capital. I originally planned to keep it for myself, but after I came to Xu, the lord gave me a mansion, and the original residence was always vacant. It was originally a villa of a wealthy businessman, which was not too small. During the Zhongping period, the wealthy businessman was killed by the thief of Taiping, and his family declined. I bought it from his son, and it didn't cost much... I heard that Ah Fu was looking for a residence in the city, and I could sell my residence to you for a price of 100,000 yuan."

One hundred thousand coins, that is, one hundred coins.

To be honest, this price is not too expensive.

However, Cao Zhen knew that Cao Hong had only 20 cents of money when he bought this residence.

Cao Zilian's good money-like nature was vividly reflected at this time. A kilogram of horse hoof gold was almost 100,000 yuan, and Cao Peng was not short of this money. However, after living there, there were too many places to spend. Although he had forty taels of gold in his hand, he was still a little nervous to support such a family. Just as Cao Ji was hesitating, Cao Hong asked someone to ask Cao Zhen to pass a message to Cao Peng.

"I know that Cao, everyone is just a little nervous about money.

Let me do this, I can give this mansion to everyone Cao for free. But I have a requirement. Every three months, I ask everyone Cao to make a knife with me. There is no need for the level of Tiangang and Earth Demon, as long as it can reach ordinary... There must be a sword inscribed by everyone Cao. For each knife, I am willing to buy five gold coins. If everyone Cao agrees, I will send someone to handle the procedures immediately and will never break my promise..."

An ordinary knife, five kilograms of gold?

And also a mansion?

When Cao Peng heard this, he felt strange. When did Cao Hong become so generous?

Later, Cao Zhen was a little embarrassed and secretly told Cao Peng the truth: "The treasure sword made by everyone in Cao is now very popular.

But all the knives made by my uncle are good knives, so many people can only think about it. But if my uncle makes a knives, even if it is a knife, it will almost be sold for ten taels of gold outside... Five taels of gold, I am afraid it will be cheap. My uncle will never be able to make this mistake."

Cao Peng suddenly realized.

This is in line with Cao Hong's style of conduct!

No profit can get up early, this guy has the temperament of a profiteer...

However, if we can further enhance our relationship with Cao Hong, wouldn’t we be able to have an extra backer in Cao’s camp in the future?

If that's the case, five qi gold is just right.

So Cao Ji agreed.

He didn't know what the value of the knife he made was.

Anyway, the five-legged gold sounds very attractive. After a month, it is almost tens of thousands of yuan. Including the salary of his 600 stones and the salary of the 600 stones of the General Wang Menghu Benlang, it is enough to support a family and be able to live a wealthy life.

He is very content!

Only those who are content can enjoy themselves forever...

Cao Ji and Wang Meng stood outside the door of the mansion, looking at the mansion covering an area of ​​nearly ten acres in front of him, and were filled with joy.

Ten acres of land are more than 6,000 square meters. Three in and three out, there are nearly a hundred houses. All the facilities are well preserved. Although they are not as grand as the Hu Ben Mansion, they are of a unique interest. Besides, Cao Ji is just a small steward. If he lives too luxuriously, he will be chatted about it. The size of this mansion is just the right size, which is enough for Cao Ji's family.

When did Cao Ji think of such a mansion?

He said to Wang Meng: "Brother, I always feel that everything in front of me seems to be dreaming."

When Wang Meng heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.

"Junshi, we are not dreaming... In my opinion, we will live a better and better life in the future."

While saying this, Wang Meng secretly looked at Cao Peng.

But when Cao Peng looked as usual, he looked very calm.

I don’t know what kind of achievements this child will achieve in the future?

Thinking of this, Wang Meng looked at Wang Mai next to Cao Peng, who was talking and laughing with Deng Fan: Damn, I finally failed your entrustment!

As Wang Mai grows older, his strength becomes stronger and stronger.

Especially after the energy was penetrated into the bones, Wang Meng could already clearly feel that he could not withstand Wang Mai's power!

One generation grows, and another generation rises!

Although he was less than forty years old, Wang Meng was filled with emotion as he watched Wang Mai Deng Fan and Cao Peng grow up slowly.

Perhaps the most correct thing I have done in my life is to be friends with Junshi...

Thinking of this, Wang Meng couldn't help laughing.

"Junshi, take your brother and sister to see our new home together."

"Walk!"

Cao Ji was very excited and walked into the door with Wang Meng.

As for Zhang, he was still a little confused at this time.

She knew about buying a house, but she had never seen it.

The matter of cleaning up the house was always handled by Mrs. Hong and Deng Juye, while she stayed in Dianjiawu, busy taking care of Cao Nan who was about to give birth.

Now, she finally saw her new home, with a smile on her face.

Zhang is a very traditional woman, and her home is everything to her. Seeing Cao Ji and Wang Meng enter, she finally came back to her taste, "Please take me to see our new home."

Cao Peng hurried over, supported Zhang, and slowly walked up the steps.

Every time she went up the stairs, Zhang would stop and pray silently. The content of her prayer was nothing more than asking God to bless her family, bless her son to have a bright future, bless her daughter to give birth smoothly, and bless all this, not a dream. Cao Peng silently supported Zhang, listening to Zhang's lyrics, but his heart was moved...

He remembered that when he was just reborn in this era, Zhang took care of him almost without sleep.

They fed the food at once and left all the delicious food to Cao Peng, while she and Cao Ji hid in the kitchen and ate some porridge to wrap their stomachs.
