Searching.


He is more determined than ever to move to a bigger and nicer place, for the sake of his family and their guests.
He has never had a proper tour of houses, he doesn't even know the average prices, thus he really needs to learn more about it.

Since WuXin said he wanted to come with him, he sets a date together with him for when they'll go for a first tour. He isn't very optimistic and doesn't even know well what he is actually looking for.
He goes where they are supposed to meet at the time they - and whoever else is going to join - decided.

Memory
Memory He wraps his arm around WonZi's shoulders, feeling down just at the mention of Fengshii, but tries to ignore it. «We will find a pretty place for us, without having to go somewhere scary.»
He bows his head to Drew. «Gamsahamnida, we will gladly take a look at the place.»
He tilts his head at WonZi's question. «Sure, what is it? Tomorrow I will buy them after work.» Says yes even before knowing what he has to buy.
They visit a few villages and towns in the area and even the main city of the region, but none of them seems to be the right place. Too small, in scary zones, worrying neighbours, ugly places… similarly to Fengshii, XiangSu isn't a very popular place. Still quite cold, very rainy and cloudy, mostly rural but with some rare pearls to offer too.

When they arrive to HuYu, they find themselves in a small town, not a new and touristic place like the zones around Suhyen or the heavenly beaches of Faelahn, but still having something of picturesque. The town counts barely a 100ish souls, but has a very rich and variegated market that attracts buyers from the nearby city and villages. It's mostly a fishermen place and there is plenty of boats near the shores.
The particular house on sale there is a bit outside the town, just a few metres, right on the sea. Half of the residence is built on the water.
It's quite old and needing some maintenance and renewing, but it's a place large enough to fit them comfortably - even if still having to share a few rooms.

The residence had been there for centuries, belonging to a rich family of True Blood who had it built and made it their home. A few decades before the current date, though, the last owner of that residence was sent to war and left it in the hands of his servant, till he would come back. He never returned.
The servant, who unwillingly inherited it, didn't move to live there. He just sold everything that was inside of it and abandoned it, but due to being the owner, and new taxation laws coming in, he was forced to sell it and quick, to avoid to end up in the streets to pay taxes on that house.
Due to the difficulty in finding buyers in that particular place and the hurry of the man to get rid of it, the price of the property starts as very undervalued compared to the market values, but still quite expensive: 9 gold, instead of the 20plus it'd be worth.

Fake WonZi slightly nods at WonPil's words. "I don't want a place where we cannot be comfortable and at ease..." He clings to WonPil's arm.
"I will write you the list a bit better, this got too messy...I need dark, milk and white chocolate, simple versions. Heavy cream, dry raspberry, cocoa, coconut and nuts."
He remains close to WonPil all the time, especially when they visit places he doesn't exactly feel at ease in. He looses a bit of hope to find something nice by the sea.
He is surprised by the last house they visit. He can see great potential in it, already imagining some change they could bring. "Omo...this is not bad at all, appa."

"I don't know. I prefered the others we saw..." The creepy ones, but it is only WuMei's opinion. XD

"They have to like it, not you! This place is truly sold for nothing. It is a great opportunity. With what you save to buy it, you can renew it!" WuXin says.

Memory «Appa doesn't want it either… we are moving for a better place, for our own happiness.» And he really needs a definitive, final home where he can feel safe.
«Arasseo, just write the list or I will risk to forget something. You can send it as a text to my phone, ok?» He thinks it's just snacks he wants to eat.
Even he is quite surprised by the last house. He walks all around it and finally stops to stare at the sea. «I feel… I feel like this is truly the one…» he murmurs. He is feeling emotional for no reason, but he truly like the house and wants to move there, whatever it takes.
He looks at WuXin. «How to proceed? I will need a couple of days for the money…»

Fake WonZi nods at WonPil. "You think that TiShan will like it here? He could always go to LanJi or Qi, he stayed with him the other night...just in case, I don't want him to leave.
Shi, appa!" It is not a random request, he surprisingly needs to cook something with it. "I really need it, alright? I am a bit in hurry, tomorrow at most..." Naturally he is a bit late with timings but in the end he will make it in time, barely. XD
He feels touched when he sees WonPil so emotional. It convinces him even more it is the right place.

WuXin thinks about it. "Better if I cover it for you, so you don't risk to loose it. You will give me back a bit at time, sounds good?" He looks at WonPil. "I really don't want you to loose this opportunity."

Memory
Memory He looks around at the place, actually not sure if TiShan would like a location of that sort. «He is almost never at home, I don't think it would change much to him…» It's not even a particularly sunny zone.
«Ye, tomorrow evening you will have everything. As soon as I return from work.»
At WuXin's proposal, he thinks about it for a bit, eventually nodding. He didn't have that much money and the house needs to be renewed and furnished. «Gamsahamnida! I will make sure to return it to you as quickly as possible!»
