“Are you asking about just the house, or are you also considering the furniture and the rare antiques inside?” Heir Pei seemed quite serious.
“Just the house.” Qi Qingyao was counting her wealth.
Heir Pei thought for a moment and said, “If it’s the house alone, it would cost at least three million taels of silver in this location. With the rare antique collections and murals inside, it would be invaluable.”
“Is it that expensive?!!! The house alone costs three million taels…” Qi Qingyao’s jaw almost fell to the ground. She thought it would be about one million taels at most. It seemed that…. the land in Qingzhou City had been ramped up to such an exorbitant price!
“It covers a large area, and the Dong Linghong family was built here more than a century ago. It has its fair share of history! So, it’s very expensive.” Heir Pei smiled slightly.
Qi Qingyao, “…”
Seeing her flabbergasted reaction, Heir Pei added, “But even if you wanted to buy a house here, you can’t.”
“You can’t even if you have the money?” How could that be?
“Even if you have the money, you have to have someone willing to sell it to you,” he responded calmly.
“And no one in general would be willing, right?” Qi Qing asked weakly.
Heir Pei said, “Qingzhou City is constantly expanding. So, if someone wants to buy land, the land itself is already extraordinarily expensive, let alone the cost of building a house on the ground.”
“…” Did this mean that the queue was beyond one’s capability to wait?
The carriage continued on.
Qi Qingyao was tired of asking more questions. Anyone who lived in this area must be extremely well off or wealthy.
After driving for another quarter of an hour, they arrived at a gate.
Li Qing opened the carriage door, signaling that everyone could get off.
Qi Qingyao jumped out of the carriage first; next she lifted all three children down the ground.
As soon as they turned their heads, they saw that Jiang Yeqian and Si Jin had also gotten out of the carriage. They were even carrying their luggage.
After walking through the doorway, Qi Qingyao recalled something and asked, “Is this your home?”
Heir Pei nodded.
Qi Qingyao felt like she was walking in the dusk, strolling around leisurely in the courtyard.
In front of her was a courtyard with three entrances; the one before the Chuihua Gate was a narrow courtyard composed of rooms facing south.
Past the Chuihua Gate was an inner courtyard. On both sides of the courtyard were the East Wing main room and West Wing guest rooms, as well as the veranda. There was a side room next to both the east and west wing rooms. Behind the main house, there was a lower grade room facing the north. There was a small door in the side room on the east side of the main house which connected to the second and third entrances of the courtyards. The middle of the northern side inner courtyard was a hall, which could be regarded as a room to meet guests.
There was another long mini yard past the small gate. At the end of it were the stables and the firewood storage room.
Li Qing originally wanted to stop her from strolling the residence. However, Pei Fengtang waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to.
When Qi Qingyao came back from her walk, she was rubbing her chin.
“This mansion with three rows of rooms is not as big as your villa in Baishui Town! But it is also pretty impressive.”
She had briefly visited the mansion in Baishui Town before. She thought that it was built for rest and recuperation, which was why it had a huge area of tens of thousands of square meters, with a beautiful garden filled with various trees! There was also a huge pond! It showed that the Marquis had intended to let his heir thoroughly enjoy his remaining time there. Even if he was unable to leave the mansion, it was sufficient for him to just stroll around the inside of the mansion.
“I’m only an heir, it’s impossible for me to have such a big house in every location. If that’s the case, the emperor should already be checking my account for fraudulence.” Pei Fengtang smiled lightly. Likely due to being in the carriage for too long and being unaccustomed to the stuffy environment, his face had turned slightly pale.
Li Qing led Jiang Yeqian and Si Jin to the guest room to settle their things down first.
Heir Pei looked at the two men with the ox and horse-head masks. He knew that under the horse-head mask was a very beautiful young man. So what kind of face lay beneath the ox-head mask?
Pei Fengtang suddenly realized.
He and this ox-head man had hardly been in the same space, nor had they spoken. He asked Qi Qingyao, “Your servant, I haven’t seen him speak, is he a mute?”
“He has a weird temper, don’t bother yourself with him,” Qi Qingyao lied casually.
