The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 186

Chapter 186: 120 Local Tycoon Xiaojingkong (One more update) _2

She was afraid that children might mishandle her things, so she reached out to pocket the property deed.

But Xiao Jingkong made an oblivious sound, “I have one of these, too.”

The three people were stunned.

Xiao Jingkong scampered back to the carriage, fetched a small box from his little basket, took the box back to the grand hall, and put it down on the wooden table in front of the three.

The table was a little high for him, so once he put it on the table, he couldn’t reach to open it anymore.

“I’ll do it.” Gu Jiao reached out her hand.

Gu Jiao had seen a few boxes like this when she was tidying up Xiao Jingkong’s things at home, but she had never opened them.

“Okay! Jiaojiao do it!” Xiao Jingkong decisively nodded.

Gu Jiao opened the small box, and inside were a few thumb-sized seals and a few documents, which were not ordinary documents, but property deeds!

All three of them were quite astonished.

“Let me see,” Xiao Liulang said.

“Mhm.” Gu Jiao took out the property deeds and handed them to Xiao Liulang.

Zhang Baoren also leaned in to take a look.

He almost choked from surprise when he looked at them; there were properties on Changan Avenue, Xuanwu Avenue, and even on Zhuque Street!

Did these properties reach all the way to the Imperial Palace?!

“Are these real property deeds?” Gu Jiao asked Xiao Liulang.

“They are real,” Xiao Liulang answered, “The deeds have Jingkong’s name on them. They are definitely his.”

Gu Jiao looked at Xiao Jingkong in her arms: “How did you get these?”

Xiao Jingkong glanced at the property deeds in Xiao Liulang’s hand; he counted his fingers: “Are you talking about these papers? My master gave them to me. He gives me one each year on my birthday. I’ve had three birthdays, so there are three!”

Gu Jiao: “…”

Xiao Liulang: “…”

Zhang Baoren: “…”

Gu Jiao suddenly could not bear to look at Xiao Jingkong’s big box of junk…

The locations of the three mansions were better than the ones before. Zhang Baoren had been boasting that the mansion with a hundred taels of rent was diagonally opposite Guozijian, which took five hundred steps to walk to. In fact, it took more than a thousand steps.

The mansion that Xiao Jingkong’s master gave him was much closer to Guozijian. You could just come out of the alley, take a turn, and then you would be at Guozijian.

In his over thirty years of life, this was the first time Zhang Baoren had miscalculated. Dressed like a local tycoon but owning three grand mansions. The mansion on Zhuque Street is hard to purchase, not to mention that its residents are mostly related to the royal family. The two mansions on Xuanwu Avenue and Changan Avenue are also priceless.

What on earth was the background of these people?

Xiao Jingkong didn’t understand what a property deed is, but when Gu Jiao explained to him that it was a precious thing and a proof of owning a house, he quickly put all of the deeds in front of Gu Jiao: “I give all of them to Jiaojiao!”

The place with Jiaojiao is the home of Xiao Jingkong!

Gu Jiao had already accepted his guqin, so she couldn’t accept his property deeds now. In the end, Gu Jiao proposed to rent Xiao Jingkong’s mansion for thirty taels of silver per month.

Xiao Jingkong firmly said, “No money from Jiaojiao!”
