If it was in the city, buying livestock didn’t need a guarantor at all. One could directly go to the livestock market. But in a town lie Datong, there’d usually be no livestock market, so one had to find a guarantor first. Of course, that kind of personal trade would have no protection. If one purchased livestock or land through a guarantor, if something went wrong, one could go to the guarantor even if he couldn’t find the seller. Personal trade was impossible, the best friends or family remember would break up as long as it was involved with money. To take the risk of falling out with your friends or family for a little commission, it was really not worth it.
With Zhao&Han couple leading the way, they directly stopped before a shop in the southmost of the town. Now was the working season, plus there was a plague in the town, although it was already under control, the business seemed to be influenced a lot. Except the shopkeeper and a few workers, there was no customer at all.
Seeing Mo Fei and others come in, Guarantor Liu hurriedly went forward to greet them with a big smile, “Sirs, are you planning to buy land or livestock? Please come in and have a seat.”
Among the six of them, Yan Shengrui and Ling Jingxuan had the most outstanding temperament. And by comparison, Yan Shengrui was more like the one who had the final say in the family, naturally Guarantor Liu’s eyes fell on him.
“Don’t look at me. He’s in charge.”
If it were someone else, he would feel quite complacent being complimented by someone else. But Yan Shengrui was an exception. He shrugged his shoulders and shifted the authority to Ling Jingxuan, totally did not mind whether it would spoil his image as a big man. The smile on Guarantor Liu’s face stiffened, but soon he put on a big smile and turned to Ling Jingxuan, “Childe, may I know your surname?”
After all, a man who had seen the world was different from a farmer.
“My surname is Ling. I want to buy a carriage, a cow and a homestead in Lingjia Village near the foot of Yuehua Mountain, about 100 mu. I wonder if you would like to do this business.”
As everybody sat down, Ling Jingxuan saved the courtesy and got straight to the point. After buying the land, he also planned to meet the construction team, and by the way, went to Laowang’s place to order the grey bricks and tiles, a lot of things to do.
Hearing that he was going to buy a homestead, Guarantor Liu seemed to instantly lose the enthusiasm, but because of the recent bad business, he did not mind, “Of course, but I need to take someone to measure it first. So, when is it convenient for you?”
A mosquito is small, but it’s still meat, and that was what he was doing. It is better to have some business than none, right?
“Better now.”
“Ok, just send someone to measure the land with my worker later. I wonder if Childe Ling wants to have a private deed or an official deed?”
There was no business anyway, Guarantor Liu did not refuse. Hearing that, Ling Jingxuan picked his eyebrow, “What is the difference?”
Why doesn’t he know that there are so many regulations about buying land?
“The so-called private deed is, I personally issue the deed for you. As long as the land is measured we can sign the contract right after you pay. This deed is absolutely valid. And the official deed is a bit complicated. You have to go through the formalities. At least three days later you can get the deed of the land, and it’d charge kind of higher.”
What he did not say was that if the private got lost, the land no longer belonged to Ling Jingxuan, because the private deed was handled by Guarantor Liu at the yamen under his own name. Once Ling Jingxuan lost it, as long Guarantor Liu did not admit it, the land no longer belonged to him. But the official deed was different, since it was handled under Ling Jingxuan’s own name. Once it was lost or broken, he could go to the yamen to reissue. Though a bit trouble, the land was still under his name.
This was an open secret of their circle. Anyone who knew a little about the business would choose the official deed. Only those rustics who knew nothing would choose the convenient one.
“Jing Xuan, do the official deed.”
They didn’t understand did not mean Yan Shengrui also didn’t. Although he himself also had no idea why he knew it, those things just popped out his head subconsciously.
“Hmm.”
Of course, Ling Jingxuan was not stupid. Even if Yan Shengrui did not say this, he would choose the official deed. Expensive things had their reason to be expensive. This Guarantor Liu looked warm, that pair of eyes disclosed only shrewdness and cunning. Doing business with this kind of people, one should be 120% careful. Anyhow the word official was much more reliable than the word private, right?
“Official deed then.”
“Ok, I’ll send someone to Ling village to measure the land later.”
Guarantor Liu raised his hand to signal a worker to his side, while Ling Jingxuan nodded at Ling Jingpeng. As early as before going out, he had told Jingpeng which part of the land he was gonna purchase, so he didn’t need to go back himself.
