The little boy was being fed by the old lady. He truly lived up to his reputation as the little prince, always being waited on wherever he went.

Naturally, the little guy became familiar with the old lady, and became less introverted, more active, jumping around the whole house.

After chatting for a while and having eaten some fruit, we naturally got straight to the point.

The agent, Mr. He, was the first to raise the issue, and he phrased it much more tactfully. His main point was to ask if the elderly couple could lower the price further, as the young woman might be short of funds.

That's true, who can easily come up with 50,000 yuan?

The old lady and the old man discussed it for a while and said, "We just rebuilt this house at the end of the year before last. We did everything ourselves, and to be honest, we really can't bear to sell it."

It all depends on whether you, as a girl, are destined to be with that child; a smaller amount is acceptable.

Okay then, let's choose an auspicious number: forty-six thousand!

Losing four thousand at once is quite a large sum.

It seems that the old lady and the old man really like the mother and son.

Ye Wanying really wanted to say that it was 46,000 yuan, and she was still short 10,000 yuan.

But I also understand that it can't be any cheaper; this house is really worth this price!

"Auntie, I really like this house, but I don't have that much money on hand right now. If you're not in a rush to sell it in the next couple of days, I can pay you a deposit first, and then pay the balance in a few days!"

If I wanted to, I could get 10,000 yuan.

There are many good things in this space, but it's troublesome because we can't sell them here. Moreover, the risk is too high, since many things are not suitable to be here now, and selling large quantities of grain would easily attract attention.

I had only done one large transaction before, and I haven't dared to take any further risks since, for fear of being targeted!

But even a penny can stump a hero, let alone a whole ten thousand dollars.

The elderly lady and gentleman were leaving in almost half a month, so they had plenty of time and ultimately didn't accept a deposit.

Ye Wanying was naturally very grateful and repeatedly said that she would definitely buy the house. She would go back to raise the money in the next few days so that the old couple could rest assured!

Finally, the deal was settled. As he came out, he took a deep breath and said, "Mr. He, thank you so much this time!"

The agent, Mr. He, smiled and waved his hand repeatedly: "Of course, of course. Since everything has been agreed upon, let's leave it at that for now. Whenever you're ready, just come to the shop and let's talk!"

"OK."

.........

After parting ways with the agent, Ye Wanying checked the time; it was only a little past three. Instead of rushing to the eastern market, she took her son for a stroll, hoping to find some suitable business opportunities.

However, it's rare to encounter big buyers in such places, so after wandering around for a while, I didn't find any opportunities. Instead, I bought a lot of daily necessities, vegetables, and snacks for the little one.

After finishing their shopping, it was almost time to leave, so the mother and son headed towards the vegetable market to the east.

Sure enough, when they arrived, the soldiers from the mess hall who had made the purchases were already waiting.

"sister in law."

"Have you been waiting long? Here, have some fruit!"

I happened to have bought some green dates and pears that the villagers had picked and were selling. Knowing that the two young soldiers would probably be too embarrassed to accept them, I simply took some from my pocket and placed them in front of them.

Both of them really wanted to refuse; it wasn't proper etiquette: "Sister-in-law~~"

Ye Wanying laughed: "Alright, if the leaders give you trouble, just go and complain to Commander Gao!"
