Chapter 69 The grass will not bleed.
"So, sir, are you really not considering other houses?" Charles looked at Li He and asked.
"Don't think about it, just stay here." Li He affirmed.
"..." Charles was stunned, looking at Li He who was extremely persistent, and didn't know what to say for a long time.
After more than ten seconds, Charles took a deep breath and said, "Okay, if you really want to buy it, I can give you a suitable price." "
How much?" "
Five thousand gold coins..." Charles stretched out his hand and said, but before Li He could say anything, his tone changed and he curled up two fingers, "Generally, courtyards like this in other places are sold for five thousand gold coins." , but due to the special circumstances of this courtyard, the maximum limit is three thousand gold coins. "
But..." Charles took the initiative to curl up a finger again, "But a few years ago, the price of this courtyard was three thousand gold coins. No one has inquired about the price. Now it will definitely be reduced, at most two thousand gold coins." "
In addition, the former owner of the courtyard said that if someone really wants to buy it, he can lower the price by another five hundred gold coins." "Ciel half-shrunk his fourth finger, "So, the deal can be done with fifteen hundred gold coins. Sir, what do you think? "
Deal. " Li He responded, looking at Charles and feeling that he was a little too honest, not as honest as a businessman.
Thanks to the fact that he had been responsible for the accounts at Blackstone Castle before, he had a good understanding of the prices of goods in the Kingdom of Fornarensa. . To buy a medium-sized courtyard in the royal capital of Lunsa, five or six thousand gold coins is an average price. If the location is better, it may be higher. Considering that the courtyard here is haunted and other reasons, one thousand five hundred gold coins is a really appropriate price. .
Generally speaking, this price requires constant bargaining with the merchant to get it. Unexpectedly, the other party quoted the lowest price himself. Naturally, there was
no need for him to be more nagging and he agreed directly.
Speaking of which, he was already He didn't worry about the price. Whether it was five thousand gold coins or one thousand five hundred gold coins, he could afford it. He owned the Blackstone Castle, and there were a lot of gold coins stored in the Blackstone Castle. Although it didn't make him as rich as the enemy, it could still make him rich. Achieve financial freedom. Just buying a house in Lensa is really not a big deal.
"It's a deal, that's great!" Charles nodded after hearing Li He's answer, and then asked, "Excuse me, sir, when do you want to sign the purchase contract?" As long as you sign the contract and pay the money, the house is yours.
" The sooner the better. "
" How about tomorrow? " "
This morning. " "
Ahem..." Charles almost choked on his saliva and looked at Li He in disbelief, "Sir, are you really not thinking about it anymore... After all, it's a big deal of 1,500 gold coins. Can't you wait even one day?
" I'm in a hurry. " "
I..." Charles opened and closed a few times, looking like he wanted to persuade, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Finally, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll contact the owner of this courtyard right now." "
...
In a blink of an eye, half an hour later.
The lobby of the "Meat and Spirits" hotel.
It was the time between morning and noon. The business in the hotel was quiet, and there were almost no people.
Li He, Alex, and Charles Appeared here.
In addition to the three of them, there was also a tall and thin man who was the owner of the haunted house. From the looks of it, the man was extremely thin, with deep sunken eye sockets, and the skin on his face was almost attached to the bones. He looked like a living person. According to the other party, before living in the haunted house, it weighed more than two hundred kilograms. After living in the haunted house, it was tortured by invisible ghosts to become like this. In addition, there are two
more The old man is about sixty years old.
According to Charles, he is the notary who signs the contract.
Generally, commercial transaction contracts do not need to be so troublesome, but after all, it involves 1,500 gold coins, which is a relatively large amount. The transaction The target is a haunted house, and it is easy to regret moving in, so it is better to be more formal.
In addition, there is also the owner of the hotel, which weighs more than 300 pounds, and seems to be joining in the fun, sitting and watching.
Finally, there is the hotel owner His son - a little naughty boy. Li He originally thought that the other party was also joining in the fun, and frowned. Although he was too lazy to teach such a naughty boy, he was not very happy to see him. However, something surprising was
that It seems that the naughty boy is not a bystander who joins in the fun, but one of the participants in signing the contract. Charles deliberately chose to sign the contract in the hotel, and after serious discussions with the hotel owner, he specially invited the naughty boy from the kitchen. At first, the naughty kid was a little restless, but Charles paid for it and asked the hotel owner to serve him a roast chicken, which made his mouth full of oil. Then he calmed down. This also made Li He couldn't help but be curious
.
However, he did not explore too much. He just wanted to complete the signing of the contract as soon as possible, and then enter the courtyard to carefully search for any clues that the Blood Countess might have left. ... "Okay, gentlemen, as long as you sign
this
contract Write your names separately and the transaction is established. "Char said loudly and sent two parchment contracts to Li He and the tall and lanky man. The
tall and lanky man took the lead in picking up the quill and signed his name: Dally Blood.
Li He followed. He picked up the quill, but did not sign his real name. Since the battle with Hale, he was very careful to protect his information, and after thinking about it, he wrote the pseudonym "Lynn Shock". "Congratulations to both of you
. "Seeing the signature, Ciel spoke quickly, and then handed over a strong wooden stick more than one meter long and two fingers thick.
"This is it? Li He asked with some confusion.
"Why, Mr. Lin En is not a native of Lensa?" Don’t know the rules for signing a large-amount contract in Lensa? "Dali laughed and reached out to take the stick, "In this case, I'm not polite. I will complete the last part of the contract. "
Dali held the stick firmly and waved it, and the stick made a sound of breaking through the air. Blood rushed out of Dali's pale face, and he looked a little excited.
Holding the stick, Dali looked towards the bear next to him who was munching on the roast chicken. The child walked over and explained to Li He as he walked: "It's like this, Mr. Lin En, in Lunsa, excluding the big nobles, when large-amount transactions are conducted between some relatively wealthy families and merchants, it is More cautious.
Signing a contract is necessary, but the contract is only final and may involve fraud, such as false content or forged signatures. Therefore, in addition to signing a contract, there must be a supplement. The specific way to supplement it is to find the naughtiest, most resistant, and most unbeatable kid from around here, and beat him at the contract signing site until his parents don't even recognize him.
In this way, the child will remember this incident for the rest of his life and will have a shadow of this day for the rest of his life. From this day on, as long as the naughty kid is alive, it is a living, walking contract. He is the greatest guarantee besides the written contract. "
This kind of guarantee is really unique..." Li He couldn't help but said after hearing this.
"Indeed, but it is very effective and has been verified for hundreds of years." "Dali said, and walked up to the naughty kid.
The naughty kid continued to eat the roast chicken. Dali tapped the naughty kid's head lightly with a wooden stick. The naughty kid raised his head with some dissatisfaction and asked, "What are you doing? ! "
"Did you know that I signed a contract just now? I sold the courtyard at No. 7 Greystone Street to the gentleman over there." Dali spoke and pointed to Li He.
The naughty kid glanced at it and asked angrily, "What does it have to do with me?"
"Of course it's none of your business. You have to keep this in mind."
"Why?" the naughty kid asked, rolling his eyes.
Dali laughed, and the innkeeper, the father of the naughty boy next to him, shook his head and walked into the kitchen.
"Why do you ask? Well, I'll tell you, for this!" The next moment, Dali held the stick and swung it down unceremoniously.
"Bang!"
There was a crisp sound, followed by the scream of a naughty child like killing a pig.
"Pah!" Dali showed no mercy. He swung the wooden stick continuously and mercilessly. It was just like what he said before, he wanted to beat the naughty child until his parents would not recognize him.
The naughty child screamed for a while, then realized that no one came to save him, so he struggled to escape.
As Dali chased him, he shouted: "Hurry, close the door, don't let him escape..."
Dali, who was obviously very thin, but holding a stick, unexpectedly burst out with amazing attack power, beating the naughty child until he howled like a ghost.
"Papa papa!"
"Ah! It hurts! Stop hitting! Ah!" "Papa
..."
"Don't...stop hitting..."
Finally, the naughty child was carried into the back kitchen. She screamed in pain and cried: "I remember, don't hit, I remember, don't hit..." I have to say,
this is indeed an impressive contract signing.
After the signing was completed, Li Hyuk went directly to the haunted courtyard without staying any longer.
Before setting off, the house merchant Charles stopped him and asked if he needed to hire some servants. After all, the haunted courtyard has not been inhabited for a long time, so if you want to live in it, you will definitely need to clean it up. As a house merchant, he can also help hire servants at no cost, and he will take a commission from the hired servants.
The proposal was a good one, but Alex stopped him anxiously and refused.
Alex said he alone was enough.
Charles didn't believe it, but Alex didn't explain too much. He followed Li He to No. 7 Graystone Street and quickly got busy, giving full play to the devil's power.
With super high efficiency, the entire courtyard was tidied up in the afternoon, allowing Li He to move in smoothly.
And Li He was not idle after moving in, and began to search the courtyard seriously, looking for any clues that the Blood Countess might have left behind.
The results were no different from what was expected. The clues were very secret. I searched the entire courtyard and found nothing.
In this regard, Li He was not discouraged. He analyzed carefully and continued his search while directing Alex to assist in the search.
In a flash, night falls.
I searched around again, from the front yard to the back garden pond, but still found nothing.
Li He frowned deeply, and Alex next to him was also a little frustrated.
The two stood in front of the pond, Li Hyuk looked at the pond water and meditated, and Alex looked at the pond water pretending to be meditative.
Suddenly, Alex felt something tugging inside his clothes. The next moment, a severed hand crawled out from the tuxedo, climbed onto his shoulder, and tugged on his ear.
Alexis was furious. In his opinion, this was definitely a provocative act. He turned his head and wanted to retaliate. However, he saw Li He next to him stopped looking at the pond water and turned his head slightly to look to the side.
Li He suddenly asked: "Alan, when we checked just now, did that patch of grass fall down?" "
Huh?" Alex looked over and saw a patch of weeds not far from the pond. He leaned abnormally and blinked his eyes before replying, "It seems...it seemed like it was upright just now. Maybe it was blown askew by the wind." "But the wind wo
n't make the grass bleed, right?"
"Ah?!" Alenke Si was stunned for a moment, and the next moment his eyes narrowed slightly, and he saw faint blood seeping out from the bottom of the grass.
This is!
Li He stepped closer and Alex followed quickly.
The next moment, I saw two more bodies in the grass.
Two familiar corpses.
One is the former owner of the courtyard, Dally Blood,
and the other is... a naughty kid who was just beaten up by Dally Blood during the day.
...
It will be on the shelves at noon tomorrow. Please support me. Thank you very much.
