At three quarters in the afternoon, in a banquet house in Luoyang, Han Fei was drinking and chatting with his subordinates. When some interesting things were mentioned in the future, Hou Cheng and Bian Xi were dumbfounded. Everyone felt that Han Fei was not an ordinary person, but a strange person.
"Sir, you said that there really is a bicycle with two wheels in the world that can be ridden like a horse?”Bian Xi couldn't believe it. After coming out of the banquet hall, he couldn't help but ask again.
"That's right, I want to ride on a horse and move like the wind. On a good road like Luoyang, the speed of the horse could be compared to that of a horse.”Han Fei couldn't help but want to laugh when he said this. It was really interesting to chat with these ancient people. He casually mentioned an item from the later generations and these people were dumbfounded.
"Daren is really a learned person. I can't wait.”Hou Cheng praised from the bottom of his heart.
"Hehe, there are specialties in every field. The two of you are skilled in martial arts, but I can't.”Han Fei laughed. Yes, it was also time to strengthen his physique. He had to learn riding a horse and archery, as well as practicing Taiji Fist. Thinking of this, he gave himself a preliminary plan. He would do more endurance and strength training. It would be best if he could get to 70 or 80 in the future.
"Sir, if you want to buy a place to live, where do you want to find one?”This Luoyang City was huge. Hou Cheng had promised to help Han Fei find a place to stay when he was eating.
Buying a house and land was the most important thing in life. Han Fei asked,"I wonder how the price is."
"Milord, don't worry. A large family's mansion is only around a thousand strings. A dozen strings of money was enough for an ordinary residence.”Hou Cheng hurriedly said.
Han Fei had heard from people in his previous life that in ancient times, the land was vast and the population was sparse. Ordinary families had a lot of bad luck and their property prices were not high. After thinking for a while, he said,"It's better to find a better mansion."”Han Fei was going to refine white sugar. The small house did not even have a courtyard, so it was obvious that he could not make ends meet.
This is the first time Lord Han Fei has asked me to do something. I must do it beautifully. "I heard that there are a few big houses for sale in the west of the city.”
"Zhang Lizheng, come out quickly." Hou Cheng went to a street in the west of the city and found the chief.
"Aiyo, it's Lord Hou. I didn't come out to welcome you.”A chubby middle-aged man with a small mustache came out. Seeing that it was Hou Cheng, the head of the Luoyang prison, he did not dare to be negligent. His small eyes smiled and greeted him after he came out.
"This is Luoyang Warden Han Fei.”Hou Cheng hurriedly introduced.
"Ah, you're Lord Han Fei. I'm sorry!”Zhang Lizheng became even more respectful, his small eyes sparkling. So this was the legendary Han Zijin. He was indeed a handsome man. "Daughter, mother, quickly come out and greet Lord Han Fei.”
As they spoke, two women walked out and bowed slightly from behind.
"Lord Han Fei, this is my daughter, sixteen years old."”
Han Fei didn't expect this small eye to come at him. Hearing this, he felt awkward and reluctantly cupped his fists. The good-looking girl blushed.
"Zhang Lizheng, don't play with your dirty tricks. How can you climb up to my lord?”Hou Cheng scolded with a smile.
"Yes, yes, yes. You guys can go back." "Lord Hou Cheng, may I know why you are looking for me today?"”
"Lord Han Fei needs a house. I remember that there are a few on your street. I'll have to trouble you to be the middleman.”Hou Cheng said.
"Sure, sure." After hearing Han Fei give a rough idea of what he needed, Zhang Lizheng's small eyes rolled around and he smiled,"Lord Han is really lucky. I happen to have a house on this street that meets your needs. The courtyard with three entrances was neither too big nor too small. Please follow me."
Han Fei brought two of his men and followed the man to the door of a house in the middle of the street. Han Fei saw that the vermilion door was covered in dust, but it could not hide its simplicity and solemnity.
"Lord Han, this Zhao clan was once a large clan. Unfortunately, the population was too small, and in the end, their descendants committed a crime, which led to their destruction.”Zhang Lizheng said.
Han Fei nodded and gestured.
Zhang Lizheng hurriedly knocked on the door and shouted,"Nephew Zhao, open the door quickly. A distinguished guest has arrived.”
After a long time, Han Fei was getting impatient. The door opened with a creak, and a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties walked out. His face was haggard and he said weakly,"So it's Zhang Lizheng, I don't have any distinguished guests here.”
"Don't talk nonsense. There's indeed a distinguished guest. Didn't you want to buy a house? Uncle has been thinking about you. It just so happens that Lord Han Fei needs a house, and your house has finally been settled.”Zhang Lizheng hurriedly hinted at him not to speak nonsense.
"Lord Han Fei! You're talking about the warden of Luoyang Prison, Lord Han Fei.”The middle-aged man's eyes widened, and he seemed to have a certain spirit.
"At least you have some knowledge. It's Lord Han Fei. You can sell this ancestral mansion to Lord Han Fei, and it can be considered as an account to your ancestors.”Zhang Lizheng hurriedly said.
The middle-aged man looked past Zhang Lizheng and saw Han Fei, Hou Cheng, and Bian Xi. The person in the middle was full of heroic spirit. It was Han Fei. The middle-aged man's face revealed a grateful expression. He quickly ran down the steps and bowed, saying,"I am Zhao Gan."
Han Fei was shocked. Why did this person kowtow right away? He hurriedly helped him up and said,"I don't dare to be so polite."”
"You deserve it, you deserve it…If it wasn't for Lord Han Fei releasing me, I don't know how long I would have been in Luoyang's prison…”Zhao Gan hurriedly said.
It turned out that this Zhao Gan was one of the prisoners that Han Fei had released in the front. Zhao Gan had spent more than a year in the prison of Luoyang. He had complained many times and was whipped by the jailer. He felt that he was going to die in Luoyang. He didn't expect Han Fei to let him go, so he was deeply indebted to him.
"Lord Han Fei, this is my ancestor's residence. It has three rooms, and there are more than ten big rooms, more than ten side rooms, and two wells…It's just that it hasn't been repaired for a long time, and it looks a little dilapidated…”Zhao Gan sighed.
Han Fei wanted to do business, so the size of the house was just right. He said,"Zhao Gan, how much do you plan to sell it for?"
Zhao Gan immediately said,"Benefactor, only 50 Guan (50,000 yuan)."）”
Zhang Lizheng, who was at the side, was shocked when he heard it. Could this kid be stupid? It's only 50 strings. If I had known, I would have bought it long ago.
Hou Cheng and Bian Xi looked at each other. This house couldn't be compared to a noble family's mansion, but it was still a rare good house. It would cost at least a hundred strings.
"50 strings, that's a loss." Han Fei laughed.
"It's not a loss at all. If it wasn't for benefactor helping me leave Luoyang Prison, I might have died inside.”Zhao Gan hurriedly said.
Hou Cheng had an awkward expression. Previously, he did not pay much attention to the issue of prisoners completing their sentences. They were usually released at the end of the year. If they did not make it in time, there would be many people who would stay for a year and a half. Fortunately, the Lord did not pursue the previous responsibility.
Before the chaos of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he had to accumulate more reputation. Only with a good reputation could he quickly accumulate popularity and recruit talents in the chaotic times. Han Fei would never do anything that would damage his reputation, so he said,"Zhao Gan, I know how grateful you are. I appreciate your kindness, but I definitely won't let you suffer a loss. How about this, I'll buy this house for 100 Guan.”
"My lord." Zhao Gan was rather excited.
"Don't say anything more. I'll help you take good care of your ancestral home. One day, when you come back to redeem it, I'll return it to you.”Han Fei smiled amiably.
Zhao had worked for decades and had never heard of officials bullying the people. He had never seen an official who took the initiative to think for the people! "My lord!" Zhao Gan's feelings could not be expressed in words. He kowtowed and bowed.
"Sir, benevolence and righteousness." Zhang Lizheng bowed emotionally.
Hou Cheng and Bian Xi were also stunned. They had been in Luoyang for more than ten years, but this was the first time they had seen such a good official. Han Fei's reputation was indeed well-deserved!
