Huang Qinqin stared wide-eyed at Xu Weiguo in shock.
She thought Xu Weiguo had been working these past two days, but she never expected him to have found out so much.
“I think it’s great. If we could buy houses directly from the city, that would definitely be the best.”
When trading with other people, Huang Qinqin also needs to worry about whether she will be scammed.
If you buy directly from the city, then you won't have this concern.
After all, the city wouldn't be dealing solely with Huang Qinqin, so the safeguards in all aspects should be quite adequate.
"Okay, I'll go and find out more about the situation in the next couple of days, and see how those houses in the city are being sold."
Xu Weiguo was worried that if they bought houses, they wouldn't be able to collect rent, but these houses in the city were originally meant to be rented out anyway.
He thought that after they bought the property, they could entrust the local housing management office to help collect rent, and at most, they could just give them a small fee.
After Huang Qinqin told Zhang Yumei and the others the good news that Xu Weiguo had agreed to let them buy a house.
Zhang Yumei immediately went out and bought a roast duck to celebrate.
Looking at the freshly roasted duck in her hand, Zhang Yumei said with some emotion.
"If you ask me, people in Guangzhou are really lucky, even though a lot of things are expensive here."
"But they have so many things that you can buy without a ticket."
"For people with money, Guangzhou is really a good place to live. No wonder so many foreigners and Hong Kongers come to Guangzhou."
While Zhang Yumei wasn't looking, Xu Weiguo picked up a duck wing to taste it.
While eating, he said, "No, no, wife, you've got it backwards."
"It's because so many foreigners and Hong Kongers come to Guangzhou that Guangzhou has so many things that don't require tickets but are relatively expensive."
"After all, it's difficult for foreigners and Hong Kongers to have as many tickets as we do."
There was one more thing Xu Weiguo was hesitant to say.
That is to say, the higher-ups clearly want to make money off foreigners and Hong Kong people, which is why they have this policy.
This is clearly a case of raising prices without increasing the quantity.
In other words, Zhang Yumei and her group did not leave, and actually left the area with the most foreigners and Hong Kongers.
Prices in other areas of Guangzhou are no different from those in Yun City.
Zhang Yumei just made a casual remark; she didn't care about these things.
All she knew was that after arriving in Guangzhou, she no longer needed to rely on her meat ration coupons to buy meat, and she was truly happy.
...
Everything was proceeding smoothly, and after Xu Weiguo made inquiries from various sources, they finally managed to get in touch with people in the city.
The person in charge of renting and selling these houses learned that Xu Weiguo intended to buy them.
And when it's highly likely that they own more than one set, they show him amazing enthusiasm.
"Hello Mr. Xu, I heard you're looking to buy a house, is that right?"
"Our houses are in high demand. If you want one, how about you pay a deposit first and I'll reserve it for you?"
When Xu Weiguo saw the person in charge speaking with a nonchalant expression and an eager tone, he couldn't help but want to laugh.
Honestly, if Xu Weiguo hadn't already figured it out thoroughly these past few days, he might have actually believed him.
"As far as I know, the houses in this area have been on the market for almost a month now."
"But it seems that not many units have been sold yet, has it?"
Upon hearing Xu Weiguo's words, the smile on the person in charge's face cracked slightly.
"Hehe, I didn't expect Mr. Xu to know so much about this, hahaha."
Since Xu Weiguo had already inquired about it, and in such detail.
The person in charge knew that his prepared speech was now obsolete.
He sighed helplessly, "Well, since you already know, Mr. Xu, let's have an open and honest talk."
"That's right, the houses here have three price ranges: 200 yuan, 250 yuan, and 300 yuan."
"And the price is linked to the size of the house, and this price is completely open and transparent."
"However, if Mr. Xu wants it and in large quantities, we can discuss the price further."
Xu Weiguo only showed a slight smile of satisfaction after hearing the person in charge's last sentence.
To be honest, the first few sentences were all nonsense to Xu Weiguo.
Because that price is the same as the price they publicly sell at.
If Xu Weiguo is willing to buy at that price, he won't need to go to great lengths to meet with the person in charge.
“I knew Mr. Chen was a straightforward person, so I’ll just say it directly.”
Xu Weiguo didn't bother arguing with him and directly stated his request.
"Regarding the price, I hope that the house, which costs 300 yuan, can be sold to us for 200 yuan."
"If possible, we would buy at least ten sets."
Manager Chen: "200 yuan is too low, how about 250 yuan?"
"200 yuan."
"230 yuan?"
"200 yuan."
"220 yuan, you need to buy at least fifteen sets."
"210 yuan for fifteen sets. If you're interested, we can continue our discussion. If not, then just pretend I was never here today."
When Xu Weiguo saw that Manager Chen had added a quantity requirement to the price of 220 yuan, he knew that 220 yuan was roughly the bottom line.
However, he still wanted to push the price down further.
As far as he knew, the city was in a hurry to sell these houses, apparently because it was experiencing some financial problems and urgently needed cash.
Xu Weiguo was betting that, apart from them, no one else would buy so many houses at once.
The person in charge, Chen, was so angry at Xu Weiguo's words that he almost choked.
If we agree, they'll lose a lot more money.
If he didn't agree, he was afraid that Xu Weiguo would really not buy it.
Before meeting Xu Weiguo, Chen's superior repeatedly instructed him not to let Xu Weiguo leave empty-handed.
So in the end, Manager Chen, with a dark expression, agreed.
"Okay! I'll give it to you at 210 yuan, but you have to buy at least fifteen sets!"
Xu Weiguo picked up the teapot on the table and refilled the water for Manager Chen.
He smiled and said, "No problem, I knew Manager Chen was the most generous."
"Come on, come on, we've been here for so long and haven't ordered any food yet."
"We had such a pleasant chat today, this meal has to be on me!"
Manager Chen felt another lump in his throat. So, if the conversation didn't go well, you're not going to invite me?!
"Mr. Xu, to ensure the interests of both parties, I think we need to sign an agreement. What do you think?"
Xu Weiguo nodded: "Mr. Chen is right, we do need to sign an agreement."
"However, it's not too late to sign after we've finished discussing the remaining details."
