Chapter 303: Finally Bought a Siheyuan
Mr. Xun said, pointing to the entire yard.
"There are three main rooms, two side rooms on each side, a gatehouse and a back room, a total of eight rooms. There is a well in the yard, but now we use tap water and have not used the well water for a long time."
As he spoke, Mr. Xun took her around the room, briefly introduced her to the house, and finally let her look around freely.
"This is the condition of the yard. We are planning to immigrate and sell the house for 30,000 yuan. These furniture are just extras. Although they are not expensive, they are practical and durable."
Dai Qing also looked at the remaining furniture, and found it was indeed good, all made of old locust wood and old elm wood.
But when Dai Qing heard the price offered by the landlord, she was shocked. The price was much cheaper than she expected.
At the price of 30,000, she almost couldn't help but agree to it.
But on second thought, considering that the current wages of ordinary people are generally around 200 to 300, 300 to 400 yuan, 30,000 yuan is an astronomical figure for ordinary people.
That is why many families still have several people squeezed into a single apartment of a dozen or twenty square meters.
Xing Zhou frowned as he listened to Mr. Xun's offer. He took Dai Qing around the yard and checked out several rooms.
“This house has indeed been renovated and the quality is pretty good. But the price could be lower.”
Dai Qing looked at him, her eyes sparkling, "I think so too."
The house was already empty. Except for a few unwanted pieces of furniture, everything else had been moved away. She only needed to clean it, buy some more furniture, and then she could move in.
The owner is genuine in selling the property.
"Mr. Xun, I've seen it. The house is indeed nice, and the yard is clean and tidy. But 30,000 yuan is a bit high. Can you lower it a bit?"
"Little girl, I'm not going to hide it from you. I'm selling my yard at a very reasonable price. The first house you bought after entering the alley was sold last month. It's about ten bungalows smaller than my yard, and it has two less western rooms. The price is 26,000 yuan. Just go and ask."
"Mr. Xun is an honest and forthright person. I believe what you say. Since we are doing business, we still need to negotiate the price."
Dai Qing believed that what he said was true, but they were talking about this yard now, so the price naturally had to be negotiated.
She is not a wealthy person and does not have that much spare money to waste.
"Mr. Xun, please lower the price a little more. If it's suitable, we can complete the formalities tomorrow."
Mr. Xun looked at her quietly for a moment, then shook his head and laughed.
"You little girl... well, I can't let people say I'm bullying a little girl. I'll give you another thousand dollars for this yard. That's my bottom line. If it's suitable, we'll go through the process. If it's not suitable, you can take another look. How do you think?"
Dai Qing looked at him and chuckled, "Actually, the price of my gift is 28,000 yuan."
Mr. Xun pursed his lips, and after a while he shook his head and laughed, "You little girl, you are really..."
There was only a difference of one thousand dollars, and it was a dilemma whether to sell it or not.
In the end, Mr. Xun gave in.
Xing Zhou looked at Dai Qing and smiled gently, "Since both parties have reached an agreement, let's go through the formalities tomorrow morning."
"Okay, see you at the housing management office at 8 o'clock tomorrow."
Coming out of the yard, Dai Qing looked at Xing Zhou, "Thank you so much for bringing me here today. I am really satisfied with this yard. I am sorry for the trouble you took to find this yard."
"I just happened to have a friend who was interested in this field, and he provided me with the information."
Xing Zhou curled his lips and looked at her with raised eyebrows.
"I didn't expect you to be able to reduce the price difference. That's amazing. Before coming here, my friend said that Mr. Xun was a bit rigid and difficult to communicate with."
"Maybe it's because we have the same temper, or maybe I'm just lucky and caught up with Mr. Xun in a good mood."
Dai Qing chuckled. As soon as she entered the room and saw Mr. Xun, she discovered that his wealth palace was faintly bright, which was a sign of wealth coming in.
Xing Zhou: “…”
Perfunctory
After sending Dai Qing to the hotel, Xing Zhou said, "I'll pick you up at 7 o'clock tomorrow. Let's take care of the formalities first."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
"It's my duty. Let's go back." Xing Zhou smiled, waved at her, and drove away.
Dai Qing returned to the room, lay on the bed with her head tilted back, a smile on her face. She didn't expect that she could get the house done in just one trip. It must be God's help to her.
The most important thing is the price. Unexpectedly, she chose the time when housing prices in the capital are the cheapest.
It's a real jackpot.
Dai Qing was in a good mood, so she went downstairs to the grocery store and bought some snacks and a bottle of soda to celebrate.
If she didn't have to go to the office early tomorrow morning, she would have gone out for a barbecue and a beer tonight.
The next day, Dai Qing opened her eyes at six in the morning.
After getting up and washing up, Dai Qing wore a neat long-sleeved shirt, jeans, and sneakers, looking youthful and beautiful.
I simply ate some snacks left over from yesterday, drank some water, and went downstairs to wait for Xingzhou to come over.
At seven o'clock, Xing Zhou showed up on time. "Have you been waiting for a long time?"
"No, I came downstairs at the agreed time." Dai Qing looked at him in a suit and tie, looking like a true elite.
Clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. This man is already good-looking, and after dressing up like this, he looks just handsome.
"Is there something wrong with me?"
Noticing Dai Qing's gaze, Xing Zhou curled up the corners of his mouth unconsciously, held the steering wheel with one hand, and said something teasingly.
"It's very suitable. It's the first time I see you dressed so formally. It feels very different." Dai Qing didn't feel embarrassed and complimented him directly.
"With your status, there must be a lot of girls who are obsessed with you."
"Haha... it's not as exaggerated as you say." Xing Zhou couldn't help laughing when he heard Dai Qing's praise for him for the first time. "It's true that people feel refreshed when they are happy."
"I'm telling the truth. Each of you has your own merits. You are the elegant and handsome one."
"Thank you so much for the compliment. I thought you liked Tangzi's looks."
They all look good, but they have very different personalities and temperaments.
"Tang Zikai is a passionate young man with both an introverted and extroverted personality."
Thinking of Tang Zikai, Dai Qing was stunned. When the house is ready, she will give Tang Zikai a call while she is in the capital. If it is a coincidence, they can meet and have a chat.
Half an hour later, the car stopped on the roadside opposite the Housing Management Office.
At this time, the Housing Management Office had not yet started work, so the two of them leaned against the car and waited. A few minutes later, Mr. Xun also came over carrying a brown paper bag.
Several people greeted each other and stood together to talk.
After the door of the Housing Management Office opened, the three of them went in together. With Xing Zhou following them, the transfer procedure was completed quickly.
After all the signatures and fingerprints were completed, Dai Qing had a property deed with a steel stamp on it in her hand.
"Okay, the yard is yours. I wish you a pleasant stay." Mr. Xun stretched out his hand and shook hands with Dai Qing with a happy expression.
"I also wish you a smooth journey abroad and great success."
After they left the Housing Management Office and watched Mr. Xun leave, Dai Qing looked at Xing Zhou and said, "Please take some time. I will treat you to a meal to thank you for finding a good house for me."
