The thin young man pointed at the things on the ground and said, "These are all for sale. I have to leave the capital for something, so I will get rid of the things and the house at home."
Hua Yuanyuan automatically ignored other words and focused on the word "house".
“You want to sell this house too?”
"Yes."
"How much?"
…
“Has it been sold?”
“It didn’t sell.”
"How much is it?"
Hua Yuanyuan and the skinny young man looked at each other...
Hao Li and his brother-in-law looked at the two men and didn't think there was anything wrong with the conversation. "You said you were selling a house and it's normal for me to ask about the price."
“I haven’t decided how much yet.”
"Ah! Is that so? I was thinking I'd consider it if the price was right."
Hua Yuanyuan really wants to buy it, but she doesn’t know if she has enough money.
Why not buy it? This is the best way to invest, no doubt about it.
This house will stay here. No matter it is demolished midway or sold later, you will definitely be a winner in life.
The thin young man frowned and thought for a while. I don't know what he thought of. His eyes were sparkling, and he looked at Hua Yuanyuan as if he was looking at a meat bun...
Hua Fangfang pulled her elder sister's sleeve anxiously, and was about to say something when she was stopped by her elder sister.
He knew what his sister's action meant, which meant that her mouth was sewn shut and she was not allowed to speak.
She pouted and squinted her eyes at her brother-in-law, wanting him to take care of her sister.
..., his brother-in-law would only shake his head at him...
"Girl, do you really want to buy it?"
Before you make an offer, double-check.
"If I want to buy one, I'll buy it when I have enough money. My family is from another place, so we rent a house near where my husband is stationed, and we run a small business at home. I always feel uneasy without my own house."
This sentence contains rich information. First, the husband is a soldier and has a certain degree of trustworthiness; second, he runs a small business and has some money, which is a guarantee of financial strength; third, the outsider has a need for housing.
Hua Yuanyuan felt that her words had shown enough sincerity.
Hao Li didn't know how much the house cost, but he understood his wife's desire to buy one. If their family could afford it, he would agree.
He had the same idea as his wife: it was not okay to rent a house when they didn't have their own.
Buying a house in Beijing means settling down in Beijing. Hao Li had no worries. The two began dating, and all his wife told him about their future plans were about living in Beijing.
Even after leaving the army, he had no plans to take his wife back to his hometown.
It’s pretty good in Beijing, my father-in-law and brother-in-law are here.
He has no thoughts about his hometown. He did miss home when he first joined the army, but it became a thing of the past after being away from home for so long.
Wherever his wife is now, that is his home.
The thin young man first took them around the small courtyard. The main house, which was the north house, had three rooms, and the left and right wing rooms had two rooms each.
There is also a kitchen, toilet and coal shed.
It’s nice to live in this little yard. Although it’s small, it has everything.
The shabby appearance was automatically covered with a layer of gold by Hua Yuanyuan, but my brother didn't think so.
Hua Fangfang had forgotten the shabby earthen house in her hometown. Ever since she came to Beijing and lived in a new tiled house, she looked down on this house when compared with it.
"Sister, this house is not as good as our old home."
"Sister, aren't we going to build a new house?"
…
Seeing that his elder sister ignored him, he took another step back and said, "Sister, you can buy it. Let's rebuild it. Tear down this old house and build a new one!"
"Well, I'll tell you when I get home."
Hua Fangfang felt that his elder sister was going to teach him a lesson again, but there was nothing he could do about it since what his elder sister said always made sense.
After taking a look around, the thin young man gave a price: three thousand.
Those six boxes of stuff are also included in the three thousand, which is considered the package price.
The flowers are round..., it's really cheap!!
Hao Li silently calculated that if he didn't eat or drink for a few years, he could earn 3,000 yuan...
Hua Fangfang thought it was expensive, really expensive, so much so that she could buy a tractor with it.
"Brother, is your house price the market price?"
"Sister, I definitely didn't ask you for more. This is the real price. You can go to the Housing Management Office and ask. Really..."
House prices are not fixed, they fluctuate based on market prices.
This yard is slightly more expensive than the market price because compared to the slums where many tenants live, this yard has its own doors and windows and has been cleaned up.
There weren't so many troubles afterwards. As for those six boxes of stuff, just because they couldn't be sold at a high price in the market didn't mean they were cheap.
Hua Yuanyuan agreed with the thin young man's words.
"Brother, are there many houses for sale in the city?"
"Where will you live after you sell your house?"
…
Hua Yuanyuan asked, the thin young man answered, and the two had a very pleasant chat.
Information also has a price. Later generations have a professional term called information gap, and many people make money by relying on information gap.
In order to thank the thin young man for the information he provided, Hua Yuanyuan bought the house in return without bargaining.
Because it took time to raise the money, the two parties reached a verbal agreement.
The thin young man was named Chen Jiefang, a name that was very consistent with the times.
He didn't ask for Hua Yuanyuan's deposit, but just looked at Hao Li's ID.
Unexpectedly, things went so smoothly that he set aside a month to deal with the house.
The two parties agreed to meet here next Friday to pay the money and go to the Housing Management Office to transfer the ownership.
He used these few days to deal with all the things that needed to be dealt with, bought the tickets, and left immediately after the house matters were settled on Friday.
Trust between people is really strange.
Hua Yuanyuan was not afraid that the other party would take her deposit and then sell the house to someone else and run away.
Chen Jiefang is even more amazing. He believed a stranger's words without any proof.
He really didn't suffer much loss. At worst he could just find another buyer. Houses are really hard to sell at this time.
If Hua Yuanyuan doesn't buy it, he will most likely sell it at a lower price in the end, so he is also taking a gamble.
The three of them went straight to the station and went home without going shopping. They finally arrived home at two o'clock in the afternoon.
The three of them hadn't eaten yet, so they went home to call their father back from working in the fields.
Let’s cook first. Hao Li lights the fire, Hua Fangfang kneads the dough, and Hua Yuanyuan cuts the vegetables.
"Dad, my sister insisted on buying a shabby house. That house is not as good as our old house."
"Hua Fangfang, don't talk nonsense. There is no comparison. Our hometown has an adobe house, and theirs has a tiled house."
"Hey, what's wrong with a tiled house? It's been so many years, and it's not as good as an adobe house. The main thing is that it's expensive, more expensive than a tractor."
…
Hua Fangfang complained about the fact that her elder sister spent several thousand dollars to buy a shabby house instead of buying him a tractor.
"You should learn to drive a tractor first."
"Humph, just learn it, who's afraid of who?"
"Dad, don't listen to your brother. This house is not expensive. It's a small courtyard that can be maintained. It's only three thousand."
Hua Youcai's eyes twitched. He listened to what his daughter said. Three thousand was only a small amount. He quickly looked at his son-in-law's reaction, but there was no reaction.
"Xiao Hao, has Yuanyuan discussed with you about buying a house?"
…
