Chapter 700 The House Was Acquired



Because I was preoccupied with finding a house.

During the hunt, Gao Yan wasted no time at all.

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

He then led his team out of the mountains.

Then the villagers of Chenjiagou dealt with the wild boar and led everyone back to the steel rolling mill.

I got back relatively early today.

But Gao Yan brought back 12 adult wild boars.

Then he asked Hu Shengli to take him to see the house.

Who is it?

An old man's voice came from inside the courtyard!

"Uncle Ge, it's me, Hu Shengli. I need to talk to you!"

Hu Shengli responded that he dared not publicize the house purchase!

Old Ge opened the courtyard gate and saw Gao Yan standing next to Hu Shengli. Being an old man with a keen sense of humor, he immediately guessed that the person Hu Shengli brought probably wanted to buy his house!

"Uncle Ge, my name is Gao Weiguo. I heard you're planning to sell your house and go back to Northeast China to retire, so I came to check on you!"

Upon hearing this, Old Man Ge's heart sank.

So he said calmly, "Come in!"

Afterwards, Old Man Ge led Gao Yan on a tour of the entire place, inside and out.

He was quite satisfied with the courtyard house; it was well-maintained and had not been damaged.

Unlike the courtyard houses they live in.

It has been damaged and is no different from a tenement courtyard.

"Uncle Ge, I've taken a liking to this house. What's your price?" Gao Yan said.

Old Ge gave a thumbs up.

Hu Shengli, standing to the side, was displeased: "Uncle Ge, you're not being fair. You asked for 5,000 yuan and no one bought it, but now you're raising the price to 6,000 yuan. Isn't that blatant bullying?"

But this old man Ge was clearly a shrewd old man, and he said without changing his expression, "Five thousand doesn't include the furniture in the room. If you don't want the furniture, five thousand is fine too!"

"Captain, forget it, we don't want it. This old man is so unreasonable. I kindly introduced him to a buyer, but he tried to raise the price on the spot!"

Hu Shengli was furious and dragged Gao Yan away.

Gao Yan did not resist.

Seeing this, Old Man Ge remained calm and unhurried. Instead, he slowly picked up his tea and took a sip. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, he was an antique dealer, and he was used to this kind of thing. He knew that Hu Shengli and Gao Yan were playing the game of price-cutting!

But this time, he guessed wrong.

Because Gao Yan and Hu Shengli left the courtyard without any hesitation.

Gao Yan could also tell that the old man was dishonest. Although he wanted to buy a house, he wasn't in a hurry and wasn't going to let the other party extort him.

Besides, in such a large city as Beijing, is he the only one selling a house?

If all else fails, we can just switch to another company. There's absolutely no way we'd expect him to go out of his way to give us money.

Unlike some clueless protagonists who, when buying a house, could have gotten it for a lower price but insisted on paying a higher price, even though prices might rise in the future, that's just how the market is right now!

He insisted on raising the price, and afterwards pretended to be perfectly sane, unaware that in other people's eyes he was just a sucker.

Old Ge waited at home for a while.

Neither Hu Shengli nor Gao Yan returned.

A sense of panic began to creep into my heart.

He quickly put down his teacup, went out into the courtyard to look around, but there was no sign of the two people anywhere!

"Oh no, we've messed things up!"

Old Ge slapped his thigh and said with a wry smile, "These days, rich people don't dare to buy houses, and poor people can't afford them."

Therefore, it's really hard for him to sell this courtyard house!

It's not easy to find a buyer.

He insisted on playing the waiting game, and as a result, he overplayed his hand.

now.

Old Ge was extremely annoyed.

That night.

After dinner.

Gao Yan took advantage of his time out for a stroll to visit the hospital again.

After drinking the chicken soup, Zhao's mother's condition improved significantly, and she looked quite energetic, which surprised even the doctor.

"Auntie, I told you I was right, right? You'll be fine after the surgery!"

As Gao Yan spoke, he took out another lunchbox.

This lunchbox contains crucian carp soup.

The crucian carp used was from the Minecraft game, and Gao Yan also added a small amount of medicinal wine.

As the saying goes, true friendship is revealed in times of adversity.

If Gao Yan could give her 500 yuan to pay her fees, then he must truly love his daughter.

After all, the mother and son only make about 10 yuan a month pasting matchboxes, so 500 yuan is enough for them to work for several years.

Where can you find a son-in-law who is good to his daughter and willing to spend money on her?

Several days have passed in the blink of an eye!

Because Gao Yan delivered chicken and fish soup to Zhao's mother every morning and evening, her wounds healed remarkably well, and her spirits improved day by day.

So, after staying in the hospital for five days, she went home to recuperate.

These past few days, Old Man Ge has also been searching for buyers everywhere.

But as soon as they heard his price, they shook their heads.

Finally, he approached Hu Shengli again.

Hu Shengli was angry with him and couldn't be bothered to talk to him.

Finally, Old Man Ge begged and pleaded with Hu Shengli to bring wine to his door, and with great difficulty, Hu Shengli agreed to try asking Gao Yan again.

After seeing Old Man Ge off.

Hu Shengli, however, smiled.

The next afternoon, Hu Shengli and Gao Yan went to Old Man Ge's house again.

He also knew that he wouldn't find a buyer in a short time, so he didn't cause any trouble.

But Gao Yan didn't let him off the hook. He offered 4,800 yuan and adopted a "take it or leave it" attitude.

This really angered Old Man Ge.

But in the end, he gritted his teeth and agreed!

However, since they cannot buy a house now, they signed a mortgage agreement. Gao Yan lent Old Man Ge 3,000 yuan and mortgaged the house to Gao Yan.
