Chapter 371 Buying a House



"Qin Huairu is a good-for-nothing! I gave you a chance, but you couldn't do it!"

At Fatty's house, Benleihu was pouring out his grievances. On the newly bought rosewood table, a pot of wine was being warmed, and several dishes of snacks were laid out.

Chen Yan and Yu Li were chatting and gossiping to each other; the fat man took a sip of wine, picked up a piece of pork belly, and then, not satisfied, picked up a piece of braised tofu.

Benlei Hu was speechless: "Is this drinking? You Cai Huzi..."

That's right, Benleihu's attempt to steal a chicken backfired. He originally planned to have Qin Huairu harm Xiaomianhu, but even with Xiaomianhu in such a state, Widow Qin didn't dare to do anything to him, and she didn't even dare to mention the matter of those two rooms again.

Left with no other option, Qin Huairu could only try to find a solution through He Daqing. She knocked on the door outside Shazhu's house and said, "Shazhu, your sister just promised to give me travel expenses."

A toad crawling on your foot doesn't bite, but it's still annoying.

Inside the house, Sha Zhu was about to explode in anger again, but He Sui persuaded him, saying, "Dad, Aunt did promise to give her the money for the train ticket and then let her leave."

Sha Zhu sighed, took out some money from his clothes, opened the door, looked at Qin Huairu, and questioned her, "Are you ever going to stop?"

Only then did Qin Huairu have time to take a closer look at Sha Zhu.

Without these beasts to feed in the entire yard, especially that brood of tyrannical leeches from the Jia family who use water pumps to drain his blood.

Sha Zhu's life is so much better than what's shown in TV dramas!

She was wearing a thin, V-neck cardigan and a gold ring; her hair was styled with hair wax, giving her a slicked-back, powdered look…

This made Qin Huairu recall the bits and pieces of the past.

What a wonderful person he was! She watched over him, protected him, and kept other women away from him.

Every time someone came, she ruined it; every time someone came, she ruined it. Victory seemed within reach, but in the end, it all benefited Ran Qiuye…

Qin Huairu's gaze, which she thought was full of affection, almost made Sha Zhu vomit!

He's shallow by nature, only good at judging by looks! Without exception, everyone he likes is beautiful.

Textile factory workers are like this, Qin Jingru is like this, Yu Haitang is like this, and Ran Qiuye is like this too...

Qin Huairu was also very beautiful back then, not inferior to the four people mentioned above, which is why she was able to stay with Sha Zhu.

But she doesn't even look at herself now!

She has neither a good figure nor a pretty face. It's almost the 90s, but Qin Huairu's style is still like that of the 60s...

She has gray hair all over her head, and she looks incredibly ugly. How could Sha Zhu possibly be interested in her? Don't even dream about it!

In the TV series, Xu Damao and Yan Jiefang brought He Daqing back to Sha Zhu in the autumn of 1993. At that time, Qin Huairu had only given them 250 yuan each for travel expenses.

When Sha Zhu isn't licking the widow's boots, his IQ is actually quite high. He just gave Qin Huairu 60 yuan, take it or leave it, not a penny more.

Qin Huairu reluctantly accepted the money, glaring angrily at Sha Zhu.

Sha Zhu glared at her defiantly: "What's wrong? You think it's not enough? Give it to me, I don't have a single penny!"

Qin Huairu quickly took a step back. She wanted the money back once it was in her hands? No way!

Seeing her like this, Sha Zhu looked down on her even more: "Qin Huairu, we're even now. Don't come here again, you hear me?"

Qin Huairu bit her lip: "Your dad said he wants to marry me."

Sha Zhu, completely unconcerned, said to her, "Him? That's great! I congratulate you two on your marriage in advance."

After saying that, he closed the door.

I don't know what Qin Huairu is thinking. She still has illusions that He Daqing will marry her.

That old man only ever thinks about himself!

He could even abandon Sha Zhu and Yu Shui to help the White Widow, and later he shamelessly set his sights on Lou Xiao'e's mother!

Essentially, he and Sha Zhu are the same kind of people; they both like pretty girls.

If Qin Huairu had been only 40 years old, that might have worked.

But now, even in her current state, Qin Huairu is still thinking of using He Daqing? Good heavens!

※※※※※※

The day for the new housing development to go on sale was fast approaching.

The four siblings, including Fatty, their parents, and their spouses, marched in a large group towards the sales office, only to be blocked outside...

They're so enthusiastic! There are so many rich people here. Fatty heard that some people came as early as midnight last night just to get ahead of everyone else.

However, the fat man never fought an unprepared battle. Before long, one of Chen Yan's underlings sneaked up to her and whispered, "Boss, everything you asked us to do has been done. Their manager has agreed to see you."

Chen Yan nodded, then waved to the back, and the whole family followed her in a grand procession.

They met the sales manager through an inconspicuous roller shutter door nearby.

The manager gave a wry smile: "Tell me, how many houses are you planning to buy this time?"

There are many people with extraordinary abilities, and he has been cornered in some place like this quite a few times these days.

The most extravagant guy asked for 30 houses at once.

Chen Yan and her family also had quite an appetite. She herself bought four sets, two for her parents and two for herself. Her older sister, Chen Rong, bought two sets. Chen Fang bought one set for herself and two sets for Lou Xiao'e. Finally, Yu Li also bought one set.

In addition, Xu Damao, who came with them, also bought two sets, while Shazhu and Yi Zhonghai bought one set each. Everyone successfully achieved their goals.

"..."

On the way back, Xu Damao, Sha Zhu, and Yi Zhonghai went with Fatty to complete the formalities.

They sold their respective houses in the courtyard to the fat man.

Now, five properties in the courtyard house belong to Fatty.

Sha Zhu was still as boastful as ever. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he showed off his red house purchase certificate in front of Yan Bugui, which infuriated him.

Yan Bugui returned to the house cursing and called his wife over, saying, "What the eldest son said was actually true. Sha Zhu really bought an apartment!"

The aunt was just as shrewd as Yan Bugui. Upon hearing this, she immediately said, "Did that fat man really buy their house for 2,000 yuan a room?"

Yan Bugui nodded: "Goodness, two rooms cost 4,000! I've already inquired around outside, and now you can buy a house like ours, in a less desirable location, for only 1,000!" That's a net profit of 3,000!

Despite all his meticulous planning, the Third Uncle hadn't anticipated that his eldest son, Yan Jiecheng, had laid an ambush for him.

The fat guy promised to buy the house for 10,000 yuan! If his dad agrees to sell the house, he can get 6,000 yuan!

With this 6,000 yuan, plus his savings over the years, he took Yu Haitang south to do business.

That evening, Liu Guangfu called Yan Jiecheng out for dinner again.

He said with resentment, "What's so great about Fatty and his gang? They made their first fortune through speculation and profiteering, and that's how they got rich! What's the difference between us and them?"
