Anyone would be furious if they couldn't make so much money all of a sudden. It has nothing to do with anything else, it's just about profit.

This is not to say that the intermediary cannot charge this money, but it means that it is definitely unreasonable to want to make so much money simply based on an information gap!

The intermediary service is a series of services starting from showing the property, and your service must keep up. Bargaining is obviously also a service.

"Don't forget, you are a consumer. Consumers have the right to choose freely. I compared the products of three different stores and this one sold the cheapest, so I chose this one. This is the right to choose freely. No one can say anything to you!"

As for "jumping the queue", why does the Civil Code regulate this thing? What is the core punishment? It is very simple. It punishes the "dishonesty" of the home buyer!

"Dishonest?" Zhou Yi was a little confused. Chu Lan beside him suddenly said, "Teacher Fang, I think I understand what you mean."

Now it was Fang Dazhuang's turn to be confused: "Zhou Yi, there is another woman next to you?"

"It's the company's new PR director. He's helping me buy a house. Mr. Fang, please continue."

"This brings us to the old saying: Analyze each case individually. If someone doesn't want to pay the agency fee and chooses to bypass the agency to buy a property privately, then that's considered skipping the process. There's nothing to say about that."

"However, if he wants to pay the agency fee, but the first agent can't reach his desired price because of incompetence or because he wants to take a cut of the difference, and the second agent can, then he chooses the second agent and pays the agency fee. He is acting in good faith throughout the entire process!"

"Of course, what I said is quite general. Anyway, in layman's terms, don't worry about it. As long as you don't deliberately want to find an agent but don't want to pay the agency fee, then it's fine."

After the call ended, Mr. Fang didn't say another word, but Zhou Yi finally understood a little.

Chu Lan also felt that the problem that had been bothering him was finally a little clearer. There was definitely no problem with this choice legally. If he felt that the previous agent had worked hard to take him to see the house, he could give him some travel expenses. This was a moral issue.

Even if you don't give it to him at all, he can't say anything.

"Okay, Mr. Zhou, that puts my mind at ease. Other agencies also offer showings for this house, and they have many offers. You can go and see the house when you have time."

Chu Lan left in a hurry. Zhou Yi made an appointment with her to go see the house with the new agent early the next morning and discuss the price.

Let’s go home now and transfer the consulting fee to Lawyer Fang.

The day passed quickly, and the next morning, Zhou woke up early again because someone was calling him.

"Manager Chu... Oh no, Director Chu, what time is it now? Oh, it's eight o'clock. Just come up when you arrive. What? The elevator won't move?"

Zhou, who was already in a very bad mood because he got up very early, became even more irritable, but he couldn't vent his anger on Chu Lan, so he could only put on his clothes and go upstairs.

Of course, sports cameras and other equipment must be prepared.

But my head still hurts, because faced with this situation, there seems to be no particularly good solution.

Even if Zhou is cheating.

So, I had to find the property management first, and called Manager He while going upstairs.

When I went up to the 20th floor, I saw that the small stool was still there, making it impossible for the elevator to close.

Without saying anything, he went up and started knocking on the door. This time, a middle-aged man opened the door. He was also bleary-eyed and shouted, "Who is it? It's so early in the morning. Are you crazy?"

He has a bad temper, and Zhou Yi has an even worse temper.

"There's something wrong with your family. Can you please take care of your kids? You're the only one who can use the elevator so early in the morning, right?" Zhou Yi roared even louder, pointing to the elevator entrance next to him.

The middle-aged man looked at the elevator entrance and said, "So what? It's not my family who did it."

Behind him, the naughty kid and the old lady had also walked out.

At the elevator entrance, because the elevator has been stopped on the 20th floor, people keep coming up.

After seeing this situation, I started to curse it as immoral.

The middle-aged man's family was naturally indignant and quickly cursed back.

"I'm too lazy to tell you who did this, and I won't say anything more to you. I've already notified the property management, and I'm going to call the police now. You can go and settle it with them." Faced with this situation, Zhou Yi said directly.

"Whatever you want to report, my child was just a little naughty. So, can the police come and take the child away? That's really interesting. It's just that the elevator was a little late. Why don't you take the elevator next door?"

Zhou Yi was about to say something when he suddenly heard a strange sound. He turned around and saw that the elevator, which should have been operating normally, had stopped working for some reason.

Then he turned around and looked at the middle-aged man opposite him, and said to himself, "Hey, how much does an elevator cost?"
