Chapter 455: Wouldn’t It Be Fine If I Buy This House?

Xu Yao thought about the seriousness of matters and suppressed the anger in his heart. He went straight to the point and said, “Tribe leader Zong Bang, we’re willing to pay this amount to buy the wool you brought this time.”
Zong Bang looked at Xu Yao’s hand gesture. It was actually only slightly higher than the previous price suggested. He smiled and said, “Sir, we only shave wool twice a year. There’s only so little amount produced each time, and we have to carefully take care of the sheeps’ food, drinks, and poop. We really can’t sell at this price.”
Xu Yao’s eyes darkened. “Tribe leader Zong Bang, what do you think of this number?”
Xu Yao gestured a slightly higher price under his sleeves.
Zong Bang shook his head. “Our family relies on these sheeps to survive. This won’t do.”
Zong Bang’s family had thousands of sheep and hundreds of cows, but he actually had the cheek to say that he relied on these sheeps to survive.
Since the price could not be agreed, Xu Yao stopped smiling. “In that case, forget it.”
As soon as he said this, Zong Bang, who was waiting to bargain again, was dumbfounded.
Was he going to give up so easily?
No way!
Zong Bang panicked for a moment, and Zong Ming’s face was filled with anxiety.
If they really did not buy it, the wool they had bought at a low price would be wasted.
Xu Yao continued, “The seven days are up. If you want to continue living here, you have to pay the accommodation fee. If you want to move out now, there will be people coming to collect the house later. If there are damaged items, you have to compensate according to the price. You know this, right?”
Zong Bang thought that Xu Yao was chasing him away because the price had not been agreed upon.
Relying on the fact that it was impossible for Carefree City to buy wool through other channels, he said arrogantly, “Sir, why are you threatening me? If I don’t sell it, the other tribe leaders won’t sell it either.”
Xu Yao looked at him indifferently. He was clearly half a head shorter than Zong Bang, but his aura was not inferior at all. “Thank you for the reminder. Since they are not selling, it will save my time.”
Xu Yao turned around and left without hesitation.
Zong Bang punched the wall, creating a huge hole. He cursed softly, “Damn Central Plains people, none of them are good!”
Zong Ming was anxious. “Brother, why don’t we sell it at the same price as before? Otherwise, we can’t just transport the goods back like this. The other tribe leaders will object to it.”
Zong Bang also knew that the other tribe leaders would have objections, but he did not believe that these Central Plains people could beat him.
He said to Zong Ming, “This must be the doing of the Central Plains people. They’re deliberately provoking us and making us anxious. We have to stabilize ourselves at this time and not be fooled!”
Zong Ming was nervous. “But what if they really chase us out of the house? If it rains, the wool will be wet.”
“Also, what if they ask for a high price?”
Zong Bang was stumped by the question and said vexedly, “No matter how high the price is, we can afford to stay. Besides, they still want to buy wool from us, so they won’t dare to be so ruthless.”
After a while, there was a knock on the door.
“Open the door, open the door quickly!” It was the tribe leaders of the other tribes.
Zong Bang opened the door. Before they entered the house, they asked, “Is it true that the Central Plains people say you don’t want to sell the wool?”
Zong Bang said, “The price they offered is not suitable, so we naturally can’t sell it.”
One of the tribe leaders frowned and said, “He’s offering this number. It’s higher than in the past years. Why can’t we sell it? If we don’t sell it, they’ll chase us away with sticks.”
“That’s right. They came to inform us just now. The price of a single apartment is 10 taels of silver a month. We haven’t earned any money yet, but the silver has already been spent.”
“If we don’t sell the wool, we won’t have a single piece of wool left for ten taels of silver a month.”
Zong Bang said, “He’s talking about a single building. There are 20 apartments in each building. On average, each building doesn’t cost much money every month. Moreover, they’re just trying to take us a notch down. As long as we persist, they will definitely obediently buy wool at three times the price.”
Zong Bang analyzed with confidence. Everyone’s anxious hearts were slightly comforted. The district housing manager suddenly appeared with a few soldiers.
Zong Bang and the others were very sensitive. They suddenly grabbed the knives on their bodies to guard themselves.
The district manager said unexpectedly, “We just received a report that you used a stove to roast meat in the room without permission, causing the room to be in a foul state. We’re going to enter the room to check now. If there’s any damage, you will have to compensate according to the price.” Then he asked, “Who lives in Room 103?”
Zong Bang and Zong Ming stood up.
The district manager said, “Let’s go in together.”
Zong Bang thought to himself that it was not like he could not afford it. He waved his hand domineeringly. “Just do your check. I can afford it.”
The district manager entered the house to check. When he saw the blackened wall and found three items that needed to be replaced, he said to Zong Bang, “One of the cabinets is broken. You burned a hole in the rattan chair. A pair of slippers is missing. The wall is damaged. Compensation is a total of one tael of silver.”
Zong Bang thought that it was more, but it was only one tael of silver. He took out his money bag as if he was sending a beggar away and handed two taels of silver to the district manager. “There’s no need to return the change.”
The district manager looked at him expressionlessly and accepted one tael of silver. He returned the change and placed it in front of him. “According to the rules of the apartment management, you have to pack your luggage and move out immediately when you use the prohibited stove in the apartment.”
This time, Zong Bang’s expression was ugly. He said fiercely, “You’re deliberately targeting us and our tribe.”
There were several soldiers behind him. The district manager was not afraid of him at all. “We’ve previously informed you in detail about the administrative rules of the apartment. If you make a mistake, you’ll be punished. If you haven’t packed your luggage in half an hour, we’ll personally help you pack your luggage.”
There were people around, and the tribe leaders of the other tribes were even laughing at him. Zong Bang clenched his fists and said hatefully, “At most, I’ll just buy this house.”
The district manager said meticulously, “The house for receiving guests is not for sale. Hurry up and stop wasting time.”
Zong Bang gritted his teeth. He had never been so embarrassed in his life.
Zong Ming was afraid that their luggage would really be thrown out, so he could only get someone to find a new residence first while he packed his things.
Seeing Zong Ming and Zong Bang being chased out just like that, the other tribe leaders became even more worried. If they did not sell wool, would they be secretly targeted like this?
The brothers that Zong Ming had sent out went to several shops before they found a place that was willing to give them the warehouse to store the wool.
As a result, the price was very expensive. It cost 10 taels of silver a month. Apart from being able to store wool, the conditions really could not compare to the apartment arranged by the Imperial Court.
Zong Bang did not feel that he had done anything wrong. He even blamed the Imperial Court for being petty and swore that he would sell the wool at a high price so that they would regret offending him..
