Although order was under control, more and more people came to buy houses. There were several long lines, and the officials in charge of selling houses were limited. They were busy until dark.
He Shen had no choice but to send some people over to help with the registration.
But in the end, even when it was dark, there were still many people buying houses, but the imperial court personnel were already so tired that they were seeing stars.
"We're closing. Come back tomorrow!”
The commoners in the queue were instantly excited and surrounded them layer by layer, not allowing them to leave.
"How can we do it tomorrow? What if the price rises again tomorrow?"
"That's right, His Majesty is too willful. Who can stand an increase of one tael of silver a day?”
"We really can't afford to waste time!"
"You have to settle it today, or you can't go back!”
……
"But we've been busy all day. You have to let us rest!”The officials were very helpless. After being officials for so many years, they had never been as tired as they were today.
"You're not allowed to leave!" The commoners refused to budge.
"Lord He, this…"
He Shen looked at the long line of commoners and fell into deep thought."How about this? It's not easy for ordinary people to buy a house, so we'll work harder! You guys continue to work first. I'll call some people over to help! Take turns to rest and take turns to do it. This way, it would be done very quickly!”
"Thank you, Lord He!" The commoners cheered.
Therefore, everyone worked through the night and sold one house after another.
The seller was happy, and the buyer was also happy.
In just one day, he had sold 20,000 houses and earned 200,000 taels of silver.
After this incident, it completely ignited the buying craze.
There was an endless stream of people coming to buy houses every day. There were several long lines, afraid that if they were late by a minute, their Emperor would raise the price again.
The price increase was one tael of silver, which was equivalent to their salary for several months.
Therefore, they would rather suffer a little now and get a house first.
In less than five days, the first 100,000 houses were all sold.
"Everyone, the houses have been sold out. You can all go back. When the second episode opens, you can come again!”
The commoners who were still queuing up became excited again.
"The house is already gone. Why did it sell so quickly?”
"Sir, I'm exploring the wasteland. I rushed back from afar just to buy a house!”
"I'm a river digger. I came back to buy a house!”
"We're also contributing to the country. You can't be biased. Give us a chance!”
"Isn't there a second phase? Can I buy it now?"
……
He Shen was put in a difficult position,"This official cannot make a decision. I must consult His Majesty!" If His Majesty agrees, it will naturally work!”
"Then I'll have to trouble you to enter the palace with me and report this matter to His Majesty! I hope he will be merciful and give us a chance. Please!”Everyone begged.
So he went into the palace to meet the emperor.
After getting Lin Beifan's approval, he came out with a face full of joy and said,""Fellow villagers, His Majesty has already agreed. Considering that you have also made outstanding contributions to the country and have worked hard, the second phase of the house can be opened for sale in advance. The price will not change. It will be 25 taels of silver.”
"Thank you, Lord He!" The commoners were overjoyed. Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Hence, she continued to line up happily and gave Lin Beifan money.
The people who were waiting to see Lin Beifan make a fool of himself were dumbfounded.
"F * ck! The more expensive the house was, the faster it sold!”
"The first phase of the house has been sold out, and the second phase of the house is being sold. They're all giving money to that fatuous ruler!”
"What kind of logic is this? I don't understand it at all!”
"I've really seen a living ghost! That fatuous ruler escaped another calamity!"
"Seeing that fatuous ruler make money is worse than me losing money!”
"The heavens are blind!"
……
At this moment, in the Imperial Palace, He Shen reported to Lin Beifan with a face full of joy.
"Your Majesty, all the houses in the first phase have been sold out, and more than half of the houses in the second phase have been sold out. A total of 2.12 million taels of silver have been withdrawn! Not only had he paid all the wages, but he had also earned a surplus!”
"In addition, we will receive about 150,000 taels of money every month. In addition to the 200,000 taels of tax, our national treasury can support us for half a year!”
"In addition, as the second phase of the house continues to be sold, as well as the sale of ores, the funds will continue to return. I am completely confident that I will break even in half a year!”
"Good! Very good!" Lin Beifan nodded in satisfaction.
Yaoyao was shocked." Little fatuous ruler, you really did it. You made the commoners willingly hand over their money! But Yaoyao couldn't understand why the more expensive the house was, the faster it would sell anyway. This didn't make sense at all!”
Lin Beifan sighed. Human nature was greedy for small gains, afraid of losses, blindly confident, and the herd effect, which resulted in such a phenomenon!”
Yaoyao scratched her head.
"It's normal that you don't understand. With your IQ, it's indeed difficult to understand. You just have to shout 666!”
Yaoyao was furious.”
" No," Lin Beifan said seriously," I'm praising you for being innocent and cute. You're not scheming!"”
"Humph! You have good taste!" Yaoyao smiled proudly.
