Wang Fu's eyes lit up. He asked carefully, "Then how much does it cost to buy this apartment?"
It was every non-local's dream to have a real place to stay in a foreign land.
The building manager smiled and said, "The apartment isn't too expensive. In terms of its space area, the one you're living in now is only about 50 taels."
"50 taels!"
Wang Fu was tongue-tied. "This is too expensive!"
The building manager smiled and said, "This is nothing. A villa is the most expensive! 50 taels of silver seems to be a lot, but it will only take you two to three years if you earn five taels of silver a month. Moreover, our Carefree City has other benefits. You can borrow money from the Imperial Court to buy a house. As long as you have a fixed job, you can buy a house in advance."
Wang Fu confused. "What is a loan?"
Why were there always such strange new words when they arrived at the southern frontier?
