Chapter 1910: All the Houses and Shops Are Sold

Three hundred taels, which is enough for a waiter to enter the yard, is considered reasonable.

But that was more than thirty years ago. After such a long time, plus the Chen family's renovation and expansion of the yard during this period, it stands to reason that it is worth at least three hundred and fifty taels to four hundred taels now.

This is normal, but the Chen family's yard is not selling normally.

In the evening, Lu Sanzhu came back excitedly and said, "The Chen family's house has been sold. Guess how much it cost."

At this moment, everyone was eating at the dinner table. Uncle Meng knew Chenggu County best. He thought about it and said, "Three hundred and eighty taels?"

Lu Sanzhu shook his head, and Meng Qi guessed, "Four hundred taels? This area is quite lively now."

"That's not right either."

Several people made guesses, and most of them guessed upwards of three hundred taels.

It was Shu Yu's turn. She looked at Lu Sanzhu's mysterious appearance and pondered for a moment, "Two hundred and forty taels?"

In fact, she originally wanted to say two hundred and fifty taels, but two hundred and fifty taels didn't sound good, so she reduced it by ten taels.

Unexpectedly, Lu Sanzhu's eyes widened and he gave her a thumbs up, "Ayu, you are so amazing, how did you guess it?"

Everyone was stunned, "Really two hundred and forty taels? Isn't this too low?"

Meng Pei asked Shu Yu, "Ayu, do you know the reason?"

"I just look at the appearance of the third uncle and feel that he shouldn't be too high. Considering the character of the Chen family, Chen Bing's story should have been spread around here, and many people will think it is unlucky."

shuttle So many years.

It is conceivable that the people in Chenggu County are quite taboo about this aspect.

Lu Sanzhu nodded while listening, "That's right, I heard a lot of people pointing at the Chen family, saying that living in this house will be bad luck."

Something happened to one person in the Chen family, but to the whole family.

Chen Bing colluded with the rebels, Pan committed adultery, Chen He reconciled with his wife, and Chen Qiu's character was ruined. When people hear these things, they just feel like they are hearing fantasy. Even if they are interested in buying a house, they are currently in a wait-and-see mode.

Moreover, this house is on the market in a hurry and will be sold within three days.

Rich people who can afford a house don't care about this place. Those who can't afford it have to raise money. How can a few days be enough?

"Originally, the price at the government auction was 280 taels, but no one paid any attention to it. No, it dropped again and again, and finally someone bought it when it reached 240 taels."

The old lady frowned, "This house is sold at such a low price, and the shop can't be much higher." She looked at Granny Fang worriedly, "Don't worry, in the end, I won't even be able to get the six hundred taels back to you, right?"

"Probably not." Shu Yu said, "The house is 240 taels, and the shop should be sold for 300 taels. The Chen family originally had a few hundred taels in savings."

Shops are different from houses. The grocery store where Chen's family is located is in a good location. Businessmen pursue profits. It is a profitable shop and is easier to sell than a house.

Sure enough, just as Shu Yu said, the next day, the Chen family's grocery store was sold for three hundred and twenty taels.

In this way, there are five hundred and sixty taels.

The Chen family originally had a savings of about 310 taels, of which 50 taels were the dowry that Pan brought when he married.
