Chapter 119 Buying a House
"The red armband must have thought that there was some treasure hidden here, so he came here again and again to look for it." Qin Wan said.
Liu Kunming nodded: "That's right, so these two houses are empty and no one dares to live in them.
Anyway, you won’t live in the house now after you buy it. After this period of time, the house can be renovated and it will definitely be good to live in.”
If Liu Kunming could come up with so much money at once, he would really like to keep one of the two houses.
Li Ruolan felt that these two houses must be great, and she wanted to see what they were like more and more.
Deng Minghao turned into an alley and pointed at two vermilion gates: "These are the two houses."
The door of the house was open. Liu Kunming had already contacted the owner and said he would come to see the house today.
The two houses occupy the same area and both have large courtyards with two entrances. The wooden pillars, doors and windows are all in good condition. Apart from being a little worn, there is basically no visible damage.
After looking at the front yard and the back yard, Li Ruolan immediately fell in love with this house. This house is really nice and grand.
It can be seen that the people who lived here in the past were definitely rich or noble. The beams of the house are all made of top-quality wood, which will not rot for a hundred years or even a thousand years.
After looking at this house, they went to see the one next door. The layout was the same, and they should have been built at the same time.
Sure enough, the owner of the house also introduced: "These two houses were previously occupied by two brothers. Their parents built them for them, so the materials and layout are the same."
The other room owner also nodded: "Yes, our ancestors were brothers, but now we are already five generations apart."
Li Ruolan and Qin Wan looked at each other and saw satisfaction in each other's eyes.
Deng Minghao looked at his wife's sparkling eyes and knew that she was moved. He handed the owner of the house a cigarette and said, "Your house is not bad, but it will definitely be troublesome to buy it.
You guys tell me a reasonable price, if it's good we will buy it, but you can't ask for a high price, we won't be able to live in this house for a while after we buy it and transfer the ownership."
When this was mentioned, both homeowners looked ashamed. If it weren't for those people with red armbands, would they have fallen to the point of having to sell their ancestral property?
These people were like flies, staring at them. It was obvious that they really didn't have any gold, silver or jewelry left by their ancestors, but those people just didn't believe it.
The two house owners talked quietly for a while, then came over and said, "Eight thousand for one house."
When Deng Minghao heard the price, he turned around and left without even wanting to talk about it.
The two room owners immediately became anxious: "Wait a minute, wait a minute, don't leave yet, we can discuss everything."
Deng Minghao sneered and said, "Didn't I give you a good bargain? I told you to pay a fair price, but you insisted on raising it so high.
Do you think we have the money to pay 8,000? If you really want to sell the house, let's sit down and negotiate a real price."
Lu Yunxiao also came over, and the few of them talked for most of the day before finally agreeing on a real price of six thousand yuan per house.
It has been confirmed that both of us have the property deeds, and the neighborhood committee has already taken care of everything, so the property transfer can be done tomorrow after one pays the money.
Deng Minghao and Lu Yunxiao nodded in agreement.
Although six thousand yuan is very expensive, this is a courtyard house with two entrances, and it is definitely worth the price.
The next day, Deng Minghao and Lu Yunxiao went to buy the house. When Li Ruolan saw the title deed and keys, she was extremely happy.
However, they cannot live in this house now, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon, so they cannot stay in the guesthouse forever.
The two families jointly bought a courtyard house about three kilometers away from the weaving factory.
This courtyard house is not as big as the one they bought before. It still has two courtyards, but the front yard and the back yard do not belong to the same owner.
A wall was built in the middle of the yard, separating the front and back, so that a two-entry yard was divided into two courtyards.
Deng Minghao and his family bought a backyard and opened a corner door on the east side of the backyard so they could go out without going through the main gate.
Qin Wan and her friends bought a house with a front yard, and they used the main entrance for entering and exiting.
This house is not expensive, just over a thousand yuan, but it is a bit dirty and needs to be cleaned up.
It just so happened that Liu Kunming and Xia Zhen were not at work, so they came over to help clean up. Deng Minghao went out for a walk, gave out a pack of cigarettes, and then came back with a few helpers.
Cleaning, mending the walls, pasting window paper, setting up the stove, and making the kang, everything was done in three or four days.
After the house was ready, Deng Minghao and Lu Yunxiao treated these people to a meal and gave them some money.
"Why do you want money? We are all neighbors. We will see each other sooner or later. It would be awkward to ask for money, right?
It's already very good of you to treat me to this meal, and I can charge you more money." Several men said they didn't want anything.
Deng Minghao and Lu Yunxiao ordered a few more dishes, ordered a few bottles of good wine, and had a good drink with the guys.
After Liu Kunming's Xia Zhen returned home, Xia Zhen sighed and said, "I didn't expect Sister Ruolan and Sister Wan to be so rich."
Liu Kunming and Xia Zhen knew that Li Ruolan and Qin Wan were secretly making clothes, and Zhou Shengnan and the others also knew it.
"They both know how to make clothes. If you sell the skirt they made for you in the city's supply and marketing cooperative, it would cost thirty or forty yuan per set. They have been making it for several years and they must have saved some money.
In addition, Deng Minghao and Lu Yunxiao go hunting in the mountains from time to time, and they sell a lot of wild boars and sheep. It has been four or five years, so they must be able to save a lot of money. "
Xia Zhen turned her head and looked at Liu Kunming: "What about you? Since we moved out, haven't you often followed them up the mountain? How much money do you have now?"
Liu Kunming looked at Xia Zhen helplessly: "I said before that I would leave the passbook with you, and you said you don't know how to manage money, you didn't even look at it, did you?"
Xia Zhen shook her head: "I didn't see it."
"Two thousand in total, plus the money your parents and grandparents gave for your wedding, we have almost 10,000 yuan here," said Liu Kunming.
Xia Zhen patted her belly and said, "We have so much money but we can't use it now, so we can only pretend to be poor, so it doesn't matter whether I see it or not.
I hope good days will come soon, and by then at least the children can live a good life."
Liu Kunming's eyes flashed: "Don't worry, good days are definitely coming soon."
He felt from the beginning that the lives of Deng Minghao and his wife, Qin Wan and Lu Yunxiao were too smooth, as if they were very lucky and could succeed in everything they did.
Ever since his relationship with Deng Minghao and the others got better and better, Liu Kunming also felt like he was being carried away.
These two couples are going back to Beijing to buy houses, and they are going to buy two at a time. Their actions definitely prove that they know something.
Do you want to do the same as them and buy two houses?
