Qiao Yu: "Old Zhou, you have something to do, so leave first. Leave this to me."

"Can you handle it?"

Qiao Yu sighed, his voice slightly raised, "What, do you doubt my ability?"

Zhou Ze'an also laughed, "How dare I."

After a pause, Zhou Ze'an said, "Then I'll leave?"

Qiao Yu waved his hand nonchalantly.

Seeing her attitude, Zhou Ze'an laughed angrily, stomped his foot and left.

Only after riding out of the compound did Zhou Ze'an realize something.

Before, the two of them were more like friends living together, but after last night, they became a little closer physically, and she was more comfortable with him, and he with her.

This is also good.

…

The old lady who was chatting with Qiao Yu was named Li.

Old Mrs. Li looked back and forth at the backs of Qiao Yu and Zhou Ze'an. After meeting Qiao Yu's puzzled gaze, she smiled and said, "You and your lover are the strangest old ladies I have ever seen in my life."

Qiao Yu: "What's so strange?"

"Normally, young couples... that is, couples who have been married for a long time, it is mostly the lesbian who relies on the gay man. But with you, it's the other way around."

It seems that Sister Qiao is the type who won’t recognize anyone once she ties her belt, but the soldier is reluctant to leave, as if he is mostly waiting for Sister Qiao to show her love…

Old Mrs. Li shuddered.

Whenever I think of that soldier's physique, I always feel that my idea is too unrealistic.

Illusion.

It must be an illusion!

Qiao Yu didn't take the other person's words to heart and asked the question that mattered to him: "Mrs. Li, you were just talking about the house. What's going on? Do you want to sell it?"

"Me? How could I do that? But I'm the only one who knows me..."

Qiao Yu returned the bowl and chopsticks first before walking to the end of the courtyard with Old Lady Li.

Mrs. Li knew that she wanted to buy a house, so she contacted the old guy.

"His children are all abroad. His children all want him to go abroad and take care of him in his old age.

Before, he was too lazy to bother and told us that he didn't know anyone in a foreign country, he couldn't speak the language, and his children were busy with their own things, so what was the point of going?

Besides, I can’t get used to eating foreign food. Our Chinese food is still better.

I don't know what came to my mind recently, but I want to sell the yard where I live.

That's a big tiled house with blue bricks! Hey, sister Qiao, look at me, I'm just talking nonsense, let's go take a look first. I guarantee you'll be satisfied after seeing it!"

Qiao Yu went to see it.

It is indeed spacious, bright, and has good feng shui. It also has an independent bathroom! The bathroom has flushing!

Qiao Yu's eyes lit up and he asked, "How much is this?"

"That's the number." Mrs. Li raised a finger.

In the end it's not one dollar or one hundred dollars.

If she dared to ask this question, she would be given a cold shoulder by Mrs. Li in the next second.

Qiao Yu hesitated, "This price is too high... Let me think about it."

Anyway, she is not the one who is anxious.

There are quite a few big landlords who are selling their houses recently, and they are in a hurry to sell. If the land is small, ordinary families can bite the bullet, scrape together some money, and maybe buy it.

A big tiled house like this one with green bricks is so expensive.

One thousand dollars...

How can an average family afford so much, even if they have a flush toilet?

People nowadays really don't care about these things, unless they are from wealthy families.

There are very few people who are not short of money and are well-informed.

By the time the other party finds a buyer, he or she may have gone abroad, and the house may be confiscated, so you won’t be able to get anything back.

Mrs. Li also said politely, "Okay, I'll ask for you later. See if it can be reduced."

Qiao Yu smiled and said, "I'm sorry to bother you, Mrs. Li. If this is successful, we are from the same courtyard, so it will be easy for us to talk. If there is anything I can do for you, just let me know!"

"There really is something going on..."

The other party has no relationship with you, but is so happy to help you lower the price. Besides the benefits, it is also a resource exchange.

Without opening any door, Qiao Yu was actually worried that the other party was holding back.

Qiao Yu actually felt comfortable with such straightforward talk.

"Mrs. Li, you can help me so much, so who is the difference between us? Just ask me if you have any problem. I will definitely do it for you!"

Qiao Yu mentioned the exchange of resources, and after that, the money and goods were exchanged, and no one owed anyone anything.

However, it also depends on how big or small the other party's request is.

Mrs. Li: "It's not a big deal, we..."

Old Lady Li looked at the gate and closed it first, then she said cautiously, "I know that your husband has a high military rank and has someone at home, so I want to ask you a favor?"

Qiao Yu waited quietly.

"It's obvious that you don't lack grains and meat. I want to use my money to exchange for grains and meat in the future."

Later.

Use money?

Oh my, this guy looks really greedy.

In a few years, there will be a big turmoil. If she accepts it now, the other party may report it. Where can she hide? And it will also implicate Lao Zhou and the old man.

Just for a property?

Why bother?

Qiao Yu didn't want to lose the big picture for the small, so he didn't respond.

Seeing her attitude, Mrs. Li felt a little anxious and worried. "Sister Qiao, we still have something to discuss. You should give us your answer first."

Qiao Yu: "Exchange money for meat and grain? You can't even buy those on the black market. You need to add some tickets. If you don't have grain or meat tickets, other tickets will do."

In fact, the soap at home is quite useless.

Soap cannot be copied in space, and you need a ticket to buy it in reality, so this thing is also very important.

There are also charcoal tickets and so on...

This is how life is in this era. You need tickets for everything. Except for food, which can be copied, she doesn’t mind having too many tickets for anything else.

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!

Mrs. Li thought the request was not too unreasonable, so she readily agreed: "Okay!"

"And the transaction time... Mrs. Li, we are so familiar with each other. It's not that I don't trust your character, but I can't guarantee that I can't leak the news. What if I get caught... Hey, these are all capitalist practices. I am a college student. I am afraid of risks. Buying and selling these things can be compared with my status as a college student. I don't want to lose the big picture for the small."

Qiao Yu did not mention that the person who leaked the news was the other party, but listed himself, not offending anyone, but also pointing out that it was such a big risk to only change a yard, and he bought it himself, and you only lost your subordinates...

Trading time is negotiable.

Mrs. Li was not an unreasonable person. She understood this principle. The reason why she said "later" and "money" right at the beginning was because she looked at those who did business and negotiated.

You can just raise the price high first, and then negotiate with the other party later.

"What do you say?"

"Two years at most."

"Isn't it too short..."

Qiao Yu was firm, "Just two years."

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Li had no choice but to agree.

Actually, two years is enough.

Qiao Yu discussed the details with the other party again.

You just need to provide the goods every month and the other party just needs to prepare the bills.

The transaction was to take place at her home.

This would also be convenient in case of emergencies, as she could hide her things in a hidden space without any evidence.

Mrs. Li smiled and said, "I'll help you negotiate it later!"

Qiao Yu also smiled and said, "If the old lady can negotiate a lower price, we can continue the transaction for a few more months."

The bottom line is to end this capitalist relationship before the great upheaval comes.

"Okay! No problem, leave it to me!"

Qiao Yu returned to the rented studio. Ge You lay down, then turned over. It seemed that something was pulled and it hurt.

She took out the mirror from the space and looked at the marks on her body...

She cursed in her heart, Zhou Ze'an must be born in the year of the dog!
