Chapter 451 Parallel Time and Space (VI)
On Sunday, Lin Xiaotong had breakfast at home and then went out to look at houses.
The houses in the city center of a small county town are generally very old, and most of them are six-story buildings without elevators.
She wants to buy a newly developed property that is a little far from her workplace.
After all, living close to someone is not always a good thing. If your boss knows that you live nearby and needs to work overtime due to an emergency, you will be the first person he thinks of.
I took the bus to the sales office. Last week, Ganyu told me that someone in the unit bought a house through a lottery.
She has also circled a few real estate projects for the time being. Houses in small county towns are not expensive.
It would cost less than 500,000 yuan to buy a two-bedroom apartment of 70 to 80 square meters, and she can cover it all with a provident fund loan.
The bus arrived at the stop and she got off and walked to the first building.
This place is located in the south of the city center, very close to the provincial capital, and was only developed in recent years.
Walking along the roadside, you can see greenery everywhere.
A little further in is an area of single-family villas. Of course, she was just looking at them and couldn't afford to live in them.
I crossed the street and arrived at the sales office. As soon as I stepped in, I felt a cool breeze.
The air conditioning in here is turned down too low, and I almost shivered with cold.
The uniformed salesperson quickly noticed this and flipped the air shield of the cabinet air conditioner upwards, causing the cold air to turn a corner and run up to the ceiling.
"Are you here to look at houses? Do you need me to introduce you?"
The man came forward with an eager smile on his face, and saw her coming in as if she were meat.
Lin Xiaotong felt a little uncomfortable because of the enthusiasm, so she waved her hand and declined politely.
"No, no, I'll just take a look around by myself first."
He immediately slipped to the edge of the sand table, holding his chin and looking at the position.
Most of the houses in this community are mid-rise elevator apartments, divided into two-household-per-elevator apartments and three-household-per-elevator apartments.
The distance between buildings is reasonable, pedestrians and vehicles are separated in the community, and there are small green parks in all four directions.
The layout looked pretty good and she was quite satisfied with it.
It would be best to buy a two-bedroom apartment of 70 square meters so that when Mother Lin comes, she can live at home.
The most surprising thing about the two-bedroom apartment is that it has a large balcony.
After looking around the sand table again, I decided to settle here as my future home.
I asked the salesperson who was dozing off behind the counter, "I'd like to know which two-bedroom apartments on the lower floors are still available?"
The woman rubbed her face, pinched the soft flesh on her thigh hard, and ran over.
"I'll show you right away!"
She really didn't expect that someone would place an order before she even had time to say a word.
It seems that the results of last night's divination were really accurate. Mercury retrograde is over and my luck has finally turned.
After all, the order rate is related to her commission this month, and the money she gets is real.
Those who come here to place orders are my bread and butter, and their attitude is very enthusiastic.
Lin Xiaotong saw with her own eyes that the man turned around, holding a notebook, and rushed to her in a flash. The whole process took no more than three seconds.
"Look, the building on the south side of the community gate all has two bedrooms, two households per elevator.
The one on the east side has two bedrooms and three units per floor. Which one do you like?"
Of course, she still prefers the one-elevator, two-household unit and points to the building to the south.
The woman ran behind the counter again and started typing away on the computer.
"Here, let me see which ones are still unsold."
After the check, Lin Xiaotong was also pulled over and carefully compared the floors and directions.
"Let's take this one, 75 square meters, five-story building, east-facing."
She needs a down payment of nearly 140,000 yuan. After obtaining the purchase contract, she can take the materials to the Provident Fund Management Center to apply for a loan.
In this way, the remaining mortgage loan can be repaid using the provident fund account.
I read the contract carefully and made sure there were no ambiguous statements before signing it.
Over the years, she has saved a total of tens of thousands of yuan in her card. She was admitted to a prestigious university in Shanghai through the college entrance examination and received a large scholarship from the school.
She was not idle during her college years. When she did not have many courses in her freshman year, she went out to do one-on-one part-time jobs and was paid by the hour.
Starting from her junior year, she went to a law firm for an internship through the introduction of her senior classmate. From a newbie at the beginning, she gradually became able to handle some case files independently.
After a law firm takes on a case, working overtime is common, and working as a legal officer in a company is not an easy job.
A week before her senior thesis defense, she stayed up late working on the case files. When she stood up, she felt dizzy and fainted in the dormitory due to hypoglycemia.
Fortunately, my roommate found it in time, otherwise I would have died before I could make much money.
After she woke up, she was also scared. She stayed in the hospital for a few days before hurriedly returning to school to prepare for the defense.
But no matter how capable she is, it is difficult for her to gain a foothold in the Shanghai stock market.
Despite the high cost of living and soaring housing prices, I still accepted offers from several major law firms after graduation.
I chose to return to the small county town and got a poor but stable job.
Big cities have their own way of living, and small towns have their own flavor.
Being single, and not having high material desires, slowing down the pace and taking a leisurely walk, isn't that a small blessing?
After taking the card after swiping it, he found that there was only 30,000 yuan left in his small treasury. Faced with the rapidly shrinking property, his face wrinkled with heartache.
But she would get her salary in three months, and thinking of this, her brows relaxed again.
Her future house is still in the final stages and is not expected to be delivered until early spring next year.
Just by touching her belly, she was immediately fed several small cakes.
After eating the small cake, I drank some tea to clear my mouth, sat down and waited for the sale to be completed before standing up and leaving.
When she walked out, she could still see the salesperson standing at the door, baring his teeth and waving at her from a distance.
I can't help but sigh: "The people here are really enthusiastic."
I looked down at the time on my phone and it was still early, so I took the bus to see a movie.
After coming out, holding a cup of fruit tea, I found that the same place where Daju was sleeping last time was occupied by an old lady selling jasmine bracelets.
From time to time, young students or girls would come in groups of three or four, picking and choosing with their heads down.
The old lady had a slightly larger bamboo winnowing basket at hand, which was filled with unopened jasmine buds. She was stringing the buds with a needle and thread.
Anyone who wants to buy it can just stretch out their wrist and the old lady will adjust the length of the bracelet on the spot and tie a knot with a light green ribbon.
There was also a piece of cardboard at his feet, which looked like it had been taken out of a courier box.
It says: 5 yuan for 3 strings.
Before she got close, she could smell the strong scent of jasmine.
Sell flowers in this life and be beautiful in the next.
When the old lady heard this, she smiled with a few cracks in her face.
"My daughter, you are beautiful even without selling flowers, look at your chubby little face.
It’s even more tender than the freshest corn my grandson picked from the field!”
There happened to be a noodle shop owner hiding nearby, feeding a cat. He had a watermelon-shaped head and was smiling coquettishly.
The big orange one who was receiving a private massage from the biped ran away in fear.
Lin Xiaotong touched the tip of her ear, which was slightly hot: "Grandma, your ears are really good!"
"Of course, I can even eat two bowls of rice in one meal!"
The old lady proudly raised two fingers and shook them twice as she spoke.
Watermelon peel, who was squatting nearby, looked surprised and spoke after a while, "Milk, but you only give me half a bowl each time."
No matter how you add it up, it's just a bowl of rice.
