Transmigration: Getting Rich with My Space and Supplies

Hu Dao followed behind the siblings without a word.

Rong Yan and Rong Jin, however, walked ahead.

Unlike the desolation they encountered in the previous few towns, this town actually bustled with quite a lot of people.

Still, there were mostly impoverished folks.

Some wore tattered clothes, while others were slightly better off with patched clothes, though at least not torn.

There were shops on both sides of the street, as well as small stalls selling vegetables and an assortment of other things.

So she asked Hu Dao, "Has there been no locust infestation here?"

Hu Dao hurriedly replied, "It’s said that the locusts just happened to avoid our town; the areas to the west suffered more damage."

Those damned creatures... they only add to the hardship of people already living difficult lives.

"Are there houses for sale around here?" Rong Yan looked around and thought settling down here temporarily wouldn’t be bad.

With Qin Ye’s army guarding the border, the town wouldn’t be easily conquered.

Hu Dao was slightly taken aback by her words.

Did the future Princess intend to buy a house? That was not a decision he could make lightly.

If he didn’t report the matter to his master first and just took the future Princess to buy a house, he would likely end up in the dark chamber.

As he was considering how to answer, he heard the future Princess say, "If you don’t know, never mind, I can handle it myself."

Before Hu Dao could react, he saw Miss Rong walking towards a place not far away... He looked up, and a sense of dread washed over him.

Because that place was a broker’s office.

Without his help, Miss Rong could certainly find a broker to buy a house by herself.

Realizing this, Hu Dao’s face turned bitter.

He hastened forward, "Miss Rong, in fact there are estates... What kind of estate would you like? I can..."

Before he could finish, Rong Yan interrupted him.

"It’s not that troublesome; finding a broker will do."

Hu Dao: ...

Master, he really wasn’t slow to react.

Rong Yan and Rong Jin entered the broker’s office.

Inside, there was just one middle-aged man who quickly greeted them with a smile on his face as guests arrived.

"Miss, may I know what you need? Are you buying servants, or..."

He gave her a few discreet glances, having never seen a lady as beautiful. He wondered from which noble family she came.

Because Hu Dao rarely walked the streets, and even when he did, he seldom loitered around, the middle-aged broker did not recognize him.

Rong Yan stated her needs directly, "Are there any estates here? Even a manor nearby would suffice."

Upon hearing this, the broker’s eyes lit up, "There are, does the lady want a larger one or a smaller one?"

Rong Yan looked at him, "How much for a larger one? And for a smaller one?"

The broker glanced at Hu Dao and, even without knowing who he was, realized he was not someone to be trifled with.

He dared not quote an inflated price.

So he said, "The manors here are quite affordable. There’s a larger one with a stretch of forest and an additional hundred acres of farmland, but..."

He looked up at Rong Yan, "Those lands are fallow, and the house is just passable. Such an estate would be, well... 650 taels of silver."

Rong Yan was somewhat surprised by the price.

taels of silver for an estate? Wasn’t that a bit cheap?

Just then, Hu Dao scoffed, "The manor you’re talking about is almost abandoned and still worth 650 taels?"
