Chapter 29 Buying a House
Zhong Hui is a punctual person. At two o'clock in the afternoon, she rode her motorcycle directly to Xinhe Community.
Xiao Nie was waiting at the gate of the community early in the morning. When he saw Zhong Hui coming, he smiled so hard that his teeth were showing.
"Sister Zhong, good afternoon. Do you want to see a house or a shop? I'll take you there right away."
"Let's look at the house. We've looked at the shop before." Zhong Hui said with a smile.
"Okay, come this way." Xiao Nie led Zhong Hui forward while introducing, "The three houses you chose last time are almost all finished. As you know, these are resettlement houses. People from the same village want to live together, so it's convenient."
"Um."
"This time I'm taking you to see Building 6. They're not far from each other, and the room types are the same. There are still quite a few new houses to spare."
As they were talking, the two soon arrived at Building 6. Zhong Hui looked up and saw, hmm, the sixteenth floor, the same floor.
"Sister, let's go to Room 101 and take a look. Room 101 is a two-bedroom apartment, the same as yours." Xiao Nie opened one of the doors.
Zhong Hui nodded and followed him in. The house layouts in Xinhe Community were quite good, with spacious rooms and bright light. The developer had already painted the walls and laid a simple layer of tiles. Zhong Hui looked at them and was quite satisfied. The houses here could be rented out, so all she needed to do was buy a bed.
"Is the first floor also 831 square meters?" Zhong Hui took a rough look at the house and turned to ask Xiao Nie.
"The first floor is cheaper, 810 yuan. The higher the floor, the more expensive the apartment with an elevator is." Xiao Nie explained with a smile.
Zhong Hui nodded, and asked Xiao Nie to take her to see the apartment next door. After looking at the first floor, she went upstairs to look at the second and third floors.
Zhong Hui looked at houses, but she just looked and didn't say much. Xiao Nie didn't rush her. She just told her where to look and Xiao Nie would take her to see it.
After looking at more than ten apartments, Zhong Hui could no longer walk. Xiao Nie took her back to the sales office and quickly poured her a glass of water.
Zhong Hui took it: "Thank you."
While drinking water in small sips, she was calculating in her mind how many sets she should buy with the money she had.
"Xiao Nie, if you buy more houses here, can you give them a lower price?" Zhong Hui asked, inviting Xiao Nie to sit down.
"Buy more? How many sets do you want to buy?" Xiao Nie's eyes lit up.
"I want to buy ten two-bedroom apartments first," said Zhong Hui.
"Ten sets?" Xiao Nie's mouth was almost unable to close, trying not to be too surprised. "How about you sit down first, I'll go ask our manager."
"good."
Xiao Nie walked quickly to the manager's office. The manager was shocked when he heard that a big client wanted ten apartments at once.
"Xiao Nie, are you sure she wants ten units? She's not trying to make fun of us, is she?" The manager was a little unconvinced. You know, Xiao Nie has been in their sales office for two months and has not yet placed an order.
"Manager Yang, it must be true. Ms. Zhong's family lives in Xiatuan Village, and their home was just demolished." Xiao Nie said hurriedly, anxious.
When Manager Yang heard that they were residents whose homes were being relocated, he immediately straightened his attitude and said, "Wait a minute, I'll call headquarters."
Manager Yang immediately picked up the phone and called the headquarters. Xiao Nie listened from the side, wishing he could put his ear to the phone.
Seeing Manager Yang put down the phone, Xiao Nie quickly asked, "Manager, what do you mean?"
"Headquarters said that if you buy ten units at a time, the price can be lower, up to 810 yuan per square meter."
"The one on the upper floors is also eight hundred?" Xiao Nie was a little bit unbelievable.
"What are you thinking about, below the fifth floor." Manager Yang said unhappily.
"Oh." Xiao Nie nodded and calculated in his mind that ten houses would save him a lot of money.
"Then I'll go talk to Ms. Zhong."
Manager Yang nodded and let Xiao Nie go out.
…
"Eight hundred and one square meters?" Zhong Hui chewed on it. Ten two-bedroom houses cost almost five hundred thousand.
The money in her bank card now is enough to buy ten houses, and this is only two decimal points away. No, it’s too little.
"There are sixteen two-bedroom apartments in a house. How about I buy sixteen?" Zhong Hui murmured to herself.
Sixteen sets? Xiao Nie was speechless. She was too shocked to speak.
She has to think carefully before buying sixteen cabbages.
"No, sixteen isn't enough. How about buying a few more three-bedroom units? Anyway, if we have tenants sharing, we can rent them out."
As soon as Manager Yang came out and heard Zhong Hui's words, his eyes almost popped out.
"Ms. Zhong, if you want to buy so much, we can negotiate the price." Manager Yang came over and said with a smile.
Zhong Hui glanced at Xiao Nie in confusion. Xiao Nie quickly introduced her to her as their manager. Zhong Hui nodded and asked with interest, "How much less can it be?"
"That depends on how much you can buy." Manager Yang smiled but said nothing.
The headquarters has been short of funds recently. In addition to the houses used to resettle the relocated residents, many houses in the Xinhe community have not been sold. Their general manager has been worried about this recently and has said long ago that if they can be sold in large quantities, he would agree to sell them even at cost price.
The cost price is just a joke. You can make some money at least, it’s just a matter of how much.
This amount of money was too much and it was a burden on the card. Zhong Hui was brave enough to raise three fingers at them.
"Thirty, thirty sets?" Xiao Nie's heart was trembling. Why couldn't there be another rich person like her in this world?
Others bought more houses than she bought radishes.
Manager Yang was calmer than Xiao Nie: "Ms. Zhong, if you buy thirty units, we can give you a better discount."
"But, look, you have already bought thirty units. Why not just buy a building? A building has forty-eight units, which will be easier to manage. Moreover, the price is very favorable and it is almost the cost price." Manager Yang whispered.
Zhong Hui thought about it and realized that there was no difference between a building with 48 apartments and a building with 30 apartments.
"Is that so?" Zhong Hui thought thoughtfully.
Manager Yang and Xiao Nie held their breath, afraid to hear Zhong Hui's refusal.
While Zhong Hui was silent, Manager Yang quickly grabbed a calculator from the counter and started pressing the numbers rapidly.
"Ms. Zhong, look, there are three units on each floor, with a total area of 270 square meters. The 16th floor is 4,320 square meters. So, we calculate it at 810 square meters, which is more than 1.15 million. It's not a lot, really not a lot." Manager Yang felt a little guilty when he said this.
He is a manager and his monthly salary is less than 3,000 yuan.
Seeing that Zhong Hui remained silent, Manager Yang hardened his heart and gritted his teeth: "Ms. Zhong, if you want a building, I will help you negotiate with the headquarters and get you a discount."
Zhong Hui's eyes lit up. After rounding off the remainder, she could save enough to buy another house. This was a really good deal.
