Chapter 486: Priceless

When Su Nanzhi heard his alarmed voice, she still kept a smile on her face, but Xia Baichuan felt that something was wrong with what she said.

"If you need it, I can give you extra lessons and give you a discount for Xizhou's sake."

She had heard from Gu Xizhou that what Xia Baichuan hated most since he was a child was cultural subjects.

As expected, after hearing her words, Xia Baichuan immediately waved his hands.

He has been working for so many years, there is really no need for him to go through the hardship of studying again.

Several people got into the jeep while chatting and laughing. Because Gu Xizhou and the Gu family had a falling out, and the Xia family lived next door to the Gu family, Xia Baichuan did not take them to the Xia family, but went to the guesthouse.

Mr. Xu was already waiting in the guesthouse.

Xu Jianian hadn't seen Grandpa Xu for a long time, and at this moment he was asking Grandpa Xu all kinds of questions. Grandpa Xu, in turn, asked Grandma Xu about her life in the past few months from time to time.

Su Nanzhi and the other two did not disturb the Xu family's reunion and went to another room.

"Baichuan, have you found a house for me?"

Gu Xizhou asked directly as he entered the room.

After knowing that Su Nanzhi was pregnant and that she planned to choose Peking University or Tsinghua University, he asked Xia Baichuan to help him find a house in Taipei City.

Xia Baichuan looked embarrassed.

Although Taipei is very big, Gu Xizhou has high requirements for the house. It would be best if it has a yard that can accommodate three or four people, has plenty of space for activities, and is close to Peking University and Tsinghua University.

Now that many people are returning to the city, housing is tight for every household, and it is not easy to find a house that meets Gu Xizhou's requirements.

Su Nanzhi also knew that Gu Xizhou had asked Xia Baichuan to find a house, so she immediately said, "If no one wants to rent the house, then is there anyone who wants to sell the yard?"

In fact, after deciding to come to Taipei to study, Su Nanzhi planned to buy a courtyard house in Taipei.

Xia Baichuan looked at Su Nanzhi with some surprise, but still nodded honestly.

"Someone actually plans to sell their house, but it's a bit troublesome to deal with it."

The person selling the house was a university professor who had just returned from the countryside. However, after experiencing the betrayal of his son and the death of his wife, he no longer wanted to stay in Taipei. However, when he was sent to the countryside, his family's old house was forcibly occupied by several families. It was not easy to get these people to move out, and even if these people moved away, his son would still be in trouble.

After hearing what Xia Baichuan said, Gu Xizhou frowned.

Su Nanzhi is pregnant and he is not around. The most important thing is a stable and safe living environment. Such a house is somewhat inappropriate.

"Baichuan, are there any other houses?"

Gu Xizhou asked, obviously not satisfied with the house.

Xia Baichuan shook his head. "I was only looking for houses for rent before, and didn't notice any houses for sale. I only heard about the university professor's house I just told you about because he's a relative of my comrade-in-arms."

Su Nanzhi wanted to buy a house in Taipei City with the idea of ​​"picking up a bargain", and she also had a mental expectation of the problems that would arise when buying a yard.

However, seeing that Gu Xizhou didn't agree, she didn't say anything more.

After all, Su Nanzhi and Gu Xizhou had just been on the train for several days, so Xia Baichuan chatted with them for a while before leaving.

After Xia Baichuan left, when Su Nanzhi was about to say something, Gu Xizhou spoke first.

"You take a rest first. We'll talk about buying a house later."

Su Nanzhi was indeed a little sleepy. She nodded after hearing this, took a shower in the space, went to bed and soon fell into a deep sleep.

When she woke up, Gu Xizhou just opened the door and came in.

"Where have you been?"

Gu Xizhou wiped the sweat from his face with a towel placed beside him, then looked up and answered.

"I went for a walk outside."

Seeing that Su Nanzhi's eyes were still on him, he answered seriously.

"I went to ask about the family that Baichuan just mentioned."

Su Nanzhi originally planned to go and see the yard tomorrow, but she didn't expect that Gu Xizhou was more proactive than herself.

She blinked and feigned confusion.

"Are you planning on buying a yard?"

Gu Xizhou found it a little funny to see her pretending to be stupid.

"I don't want to buy a yard. I just saw a greedy cat talking about buying a yard. His face lit up so brightly that I couldn't open my eyes. I really want to ask him."

After saying that, he couldn't help but lightly tap the tip of Su Nanzhi's nose.

Su Nanzhi's heart softened at his doting tone, and she took his waist and said coquettishly, "Then, Captain Gu, do you want to buy a yard yourself?"

The money to buy a house is not a small amount, and as a member of the family, Gu Xizhou's opinion is also very important.

"If you don't want to buy it, then we can find a house to rent for a while."

The worst that could happen is that you could save the money you would have spent on buying a house in Taipei and use it to buy land in Shanghai or eastern Taiwan.

Gu Xizhou sat down on the chair, held Su Nanzhi on his lap, and then spoke.

"You decide all matters at home, big or small, and I will be your vanguard."

Hearing this joke, Su Nanzhi couldn't help but pat Gu Xizhou's arm, but the strength was more like a caress than a pat.

Her face was full of smiles, and the maternal love brought by pregnancy also had a few more feminine charms.

"Okay, just don't accuse me of spending money lavishly when the time comes."

Gu Xizhou hugged Su Nanzhi tighter, his voice filled with laughter.

"It's okay. I make money so you can spend it. If that doesn't work out, I'll go borrow some money from Baichuan and the others."

Su Nanzhi just wanted to buy a house and had no intention of doing anything illegal, so naturally she didn't need to borrow money.

But at this moment, she nodded and agreed: "If you can't pay the money back by then, don't come to me."

Gu Xizhou could no longer hold back his laughter.

The two chatted and laughed for a while before starting to talk about serious matters.

The guesthouse where they lived was not far from the old professor's yard.

The yard is very big, even bigger than the Su family's old house, and has six houses.

In addition, it is close to a palace and not far from universities in Taipei. It has a good geographical location. Even if Gu Xizhou didn't ask how much the house cost, he knew that the price would not be cheap.

But the price is secondary now. The most important thing is that the people living in the yard are not easy to deal with.

There are six families living in the yard.

These six families are not good-tempered. They often quarrel and fight because of neighborhood relationships. They are considered troublemakers in that alley.

The person that Gu Xizhou asked to inquire about the matter, after gossiping with him, also asked Gu Xizhou in a very meaningful way to stay away from the people in the yard, otherwise it would cause trouble.

There are six families, two of whom are elderly people who are guaranteed the five guarantees, one is a widow with three children, another is a family of five, and the last one is a family of three. However, they have a good family background, so the other families will not easily provoke them.

After recounting the information he had inquired about, Gu Xizhou frowned slightly and said, "If you want to buy the yard, I'll ask Xia Baichuan to inquire about it. Otherwise, even if you really buy this house, there will be a lot of trouble. I don't feel comfortable with you living in it alone."

Su Nanzhi just heard Xia Baichuan say that there was some trouble in this yard, but she didn't expect it to be so troublesome.

This simply combines the old, weak, sick and disabled together. No, there is also someone with power.

But after listening to Gu Xizhou talk about the geographical location and layout of the courtyard, her original five-point interest became eight points.

Such yards will be priceless in the future market.
