Eating Melons and Watching the Show in a Chronicles Novel

As a member of the working class, Lin Jingyu, a cargo registrar at a port, transmigrated to the early 1970s during her lunch break.

She unexpectedly discovered that she had entered a chronicl...

Chapter 269 isn't too expensive!

"It seems that buying a small villa is indeed more suitable."

An Yalin nodded. "Okay, there's a family not far from me who wants to move. I don't know if they're planning to go to Hainan or Xiangdu."

They've wanted to sell it for a long time, but unfortunately there are too few buyers, so there's no use in being anxious.

If you like their house, you'll definitely move in right away; you don't need to worry about them dragging their feet.

"Okay, let's go take a look."

Lin Jingyu was moved.

After all, the villas in this area are all pretty much the same style.

It is a combination of Chinese and Western elements.

It's quite fashionable, at least in this era; not only do young people like it, but older people also find it easy to accept.

An Yalin and her son accompanied them.

We walked and talked, and I listened to her introduce who lived on both sides of the street.

Of course, the families who can move in are not ordinary people.

Lin Jingyu suddenly thought of an important question, "Sister-in-law, could you tell me how much these small villas usually cost?"

“A typical small courtyard house can be bought for around a thousand yuan.”

When An Yalin talked about housing prices in the county town, she said, "A slightly larger courtyard costs around 1,500 yuan, while a large courtyard usually costs around 2,000 to 3,000 yuan."

As for small villas like ours, the prices are higher, starting at least at five thousand. Villas in better locations and newer ones are even more expensive.

However, it won't be too outrageous no matter how expensive it is. It's not worth it if it exceeds eight thousand yuan. That's what your brother Lu told me.

"You can negotiate the price with them later. I can't say too much, lest they think I'm deliberately trying to lower the price and feel uncomfortable."

"I see."

Lin Jingyu nodded, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'll negotiate the price with them."

"They are indeed in a hurry to leave, so don't try to lower the price too much."

Anya Lin whispered a reminder, "Otherwise, they could sabotage us before they leave, and we'd be the ones who suffer then. There's no need for us to cause trouble."

"Don't worry, sister-in-law."

Lin Jingyu responded, "As long as their houses are worth that price, I won't deliberately try to lower the price."

“Almost there.”

An Yalin pointed to the small villa in front and said, "This is it. The environment is nice, and it's close to our home."

It is indeed very close.

It only takes about five minutes to walk there.

It's not exactly a remote place.

It's better to arrange for my sister-in-law to stay here than in the countryside.

Under An Yalin's guidance, they knocked on the other party's door.

The homeowner was surprised to learn that they were there to buy a house.

Especially seeing Lin Jingyu's age...

If An Yalin hadn't brought people with her, they would have thought it was a joke.

After explaining the meaning.

Out of respect for An Ya Lin, the head of the family still led Lin Jing Yu to inspect the place inside and out.

As expected, their scale and structure are similar to those of the Lu family.

The attic on the third floor of their house is nicely decorated; it's a relaxation room.

The furniture in the house is also quite nice.

It must be said that Lin Jingyu was indeed very satisfied after reading it once.

“Mr. Hong, I really like this house of yours.”

Lin Jingyu expressed her thoughts, "If the price is right, I'm willing to make a purchase."

"I'm glad Miss Lin is satisfied."

Mr. Hong nodded, glanced at An Yalin, and said, "We won't quote prices arbitrarily; our bottom line is seven thousand yuan."

If Ms. Lin doesn't mind using our furniture, for 10,000 yuan, everything inside and outside the house will be handed over to Ms. Lin intact.

I wonder if Miss Lin will accept this.

"Ten thousand yuan."

Lin Jingyu was still taken aback when she heard the price.

This price doesn't sound cheap at first glance.

But their stuff is really good.

The villa is about 80% new, and the residents have lived there for less than ten years.

The home's renovation, hardware, and furniture are all high-end items, and the total cost of ten thousand yuan is reasonable.

No matter what, secondhand is secondhand.

Lin Jing pondered for a moment, then met the other party's gaze frankly, "Mr. Hong, the so-called 'asking for the moon, negotiating the price'..."

In my opinion, 10,000 yuan is indeed a bit expensive.

I sincerely want to buy a house, and Mr. Hong is keen to sell one. Why don't we both offer a price that we can accept?

If Mr. Hong agrees to sell for eight thousand yuan, then I am willing to take it.

"Miss Lin, eight thousand yuan is too little."

Mr. Hong frowned upon hearing this. "You should understand that ten thousand yuan is definitely not expensive for my house."

“In the past, Mr. Hong could have sold it for 15,000 yuan.”

Lin Jingyu responded softly, "Given the current environment, there are definitely very few people willing to spend eight thousand yuan to buy a house."

Mr. Hong, I'm sure you know what I'm offering.

"I'm sorry, but we really can't accept eight thousand yuan."

Mr. Hong shook his head. "If Miss Lin really wants it, she'll have to pay at least a little more."

"So, what price range is Mr. Hong willing to accept?"

"Nine thousand eight."

“Mr. Hong, you must be joking. I’m a bit more generous than you. My bottom line is 8,500 yuan at most.”

"No, the price is too low."

...

The two of them started arguing back and forth.

You add a little, I subtract a little, you're even more fussy than the old ladies buying vegetables on the street.

The others were speechless.

at last.

They talked for more than half an hour.

Finally, the two agreed on a price of nine thousand yuan.
