Chapter 1175 Accompanying Gu Dongxing to Buy a House (Part 1)

Because she was planning to buy a few more Siheyuans, Mengyu had been asking Le De and others to keep an eye out for anyone selling properties and inform her. She had heard from Le De a few days ago that several courtyards had already been found, but she hadn’t had the time to look at them with them.

Now that Gu Dongxing wanted to buy a courtyard, it was a perfect opportunity to have them take a look together. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Gu Dongxing knew that some super families have their own Hidden Guards, and a family like the Nan Family naturally had them too. Since Mengyu was the Eldest Miss Nan, it was not surprising for her to have Hidden Guards with her.

As for Mengyu’s desire to buy a courtyard, whatever Mengyu wanted to do, he supported it.

Le De hurriedly saluted, "Greetings, Sir!"

Gu Dongxing was so delighted by the word ’Sir’ that he took out a bottle of Gathering Yuan Pill as a greeting gift.

Before Le De could speak, suddenly two young men appeared, dressed in black, saluting Mengyu. "Greetings, Eldest Lady." They then looked expectantly at Gu Dongxing, "Greetings, Sir!"

Mengyu chuckled, these two guys wanted a gift too.

She had no choice but to introduce them to Gu Dongxing, "These two are also my Hidden Guards, the slightly older one is called Le Shan, and the one whose eyes dart around is called Le Shui."

Gu Dongxing likewise took out two bottles of Gathering Yuan Pill, "Nice to meet you both."

Le Shan and Le Shui each received a bottle of Gathering Yuan Pill, both of them showed expressions of joy: these were Gathering Yuan Pills, higher level than Yuan Nourishing Pill, not only usable for impacting Innate but also usable after reaching Innate.

The two hurriedly and respectfully saluted, "Thank you, Sir!"

"Alright, you guys act as if you’ve never seen pills before. I asked you guys to find courtyards being sold, how many have you found?"

Le De: "I found two."

Le Shan: "I only found one."

Le Shui: "I found six!"

Mengyu looked at Le Shui in amazement, "Are you sure you found six courtyards? You need to understand, I want courtyards that are privately owned; if they are shared by several households, it would be too complicated."

Currently, many Siheyuans are occupied by several households, and it’s rare to find one inhabited by a single family.

And if there are, most are those returned from being sent down, and among such people, few are willing to sell their courtyards.

"Of course, the ones I found are all owned by single households." Le Shui confidently replied.

"How did you find them, managing to locate six courtyards?" Mengyu asked in surprise.

Le Shui’s face lit up, "It’s quite easy. Relying on myself to find them would surely be difficult, and I can’t just knock on doors asking if they’re selling. Looking for property sale information also tends to be challenging. Furthermore, since the Eldest Lady instructed that we should not be too flamboyant about it, it requires discreet investigation.

I bought some candies and found a group of children, asking them to find out where there were courtyards for sale. On a major street, if I can find one child, I can have the kids from that street help me inquire.

Initially, the kids provided information on over twenty places selling courtyards. I verified them one by one; some had already been sold, others were still hesitating, and some were in disrepair. Only six were confirmed to be in good condition and genuinely intended for sale but hadn’t been sold yet."

Mengyu patted Le Shui on the shoulder, "Not bad, not bad. Having the street kids gather information, allowing for easy access to property sale info without easily drawing attention, your brain is really clever."

Having long recognized Le Shui’s clever mind, little did she expect him to come up with such a method just to find a property. Such a mind, what a waste for him to be a Hidden Guard. She was contemplating whether to have him change careers.
