Chapter 184 The unexpected act of buying a bungalow
When they arrived at the agreed place, Huang Xinran also met the sister that the leader had mentioned.
My sister dresses very fashionably and looks very proud.
She had heard from her brother that she was a woman who ran a shop, and she thought she was an old woman with a yellow face. But when Huang Xinran appeared, she was fair-skinned, beautiful, with a cherry-like mouth, and her smile was sweet and lustful. How could she look like an old woman at all?
Just one glance and he reduced her to dust.
The other person's face suddenly fell.
Fortunately, I remembered my brother's instructions and glanced at her, "Are you the woman my brother mentioned who wants to buy my house?"
It seems that this person is difficult to talk to!
Huang Xinran knew what was going on, and hurriedly took out the candy she had prepared early in the morning: "I've heard from the leaders before that you are beautiful, kind-hearted, and tall. Now I see that you are even prettier than they described. Sister, try this chocolate. I heard that it's something that foreigners like to eat. It's a bit bitter, and I'm not used to it for someone like me who doesn't have much experience."
"That's because you haven't eaten it before, so you're surprised by what you've seen, huh!"
The other party then took the chocolate, took a look at it, and saw that it was a very popular chocolate with liqueur filling in the city. It was not only delicious but also expensive.
Her face looked much better, and she raised her head proudly: "Didn't you say you wanted to go look at a house? Let's go!"
Having said that, he got on a rickshaw and took Huang Xinran with him.
Huang Xinran looked calm.
Nowadays, there are all kinds of people, so there is no need to compete for everything.
As long as you can achieve your goals and do not violate your moral bottom line, there is nothing wrong with it.
As a result, the rickshaw went farther and farther, and Huang Xinran felt that the surrounding environment was becoming more and more familiar. Looking more closely, wasn't this near the house he rented?
Look, isn’t the gate of the primary school that Yaya and Maomao attend right in front?
The rickshaw went into the alley next to it and finally stopped in front of a row of bungalows.
The two got off the car, and Huang Xinran hurriedly took the initiative to pay the fare. The man was very satisfied with her payment, and then pointed to one of the bungalows in the row and said, "This is the house. Do you like it?"
This row of houses are all bungalows, and the height of the houses is not very high. Huang Xinran looked around after the other party opened the door. This bungalow is about 40 to 50 square meters, with a garden in the front and another garden in the back. Because of the orientation, the garden in the front is full of weeds, while the garden in the back looks a bit desolate and a bit eerie.
Huang Xinran was also surprised to find that the location of this bungalow was right behind the shop she was currently renting.
Even if she looked up, she could see the window facing the back of her shop.
This must have been deliberately arranged by the leader, right?
At this moment, Huang Xinran made up his mind to buy it.
When I asked about the price, the other party directly quoted a whole number: "3,000 yuan."
“Huh!~”
Huang Xinran was shocked. "Sister, your price... isn't it too high? I can't afford it!"
“That’s the price.”
When he heard that he couldn't afford it, his face drooped again: "My brother said, you can buy it if you want."
For her, she didn't need this little pocket money, so there was no need to bargain with Huang Xinran.
Huang Xinran was also helpless.
She wanted to negotiate the price with the other party, but judging from the other party's attitude, he didn't seem like someone who wanted to sell the house.
But if she really bought it for 3,000 yuan, she would feel that she was being taken advantage of.
Not to mention, she didn't have that much money.
After all, she had invested all the money she had earned in the flower plantation, and she only had a little over 1,000 yuan in cash. In addition to the money she had earned from her business, there was also the money Liang Wei had sent her.
I originally thought that it would be enough to buy a bungalow, but it turned out to be only half of it.
No matter how hard she tried to bargain, the other party became more and more impatient. "This is the price anyway, whether you want it or not is up to you." After saying that, he just left her alone.
Huang Xinran, who was left behind, was also helpless.
Forget it. It's just a matter of luck. If she can buy it, she'll buy it. If she can't, forget it. Anyway, she doesn't know the situation in H Province. Whether it will be demolished is also a big deal. It's better to keep the money and buy it later when there is a suitable one.
Huang was about to leave, but was stopped by someone.
"Wait a minute! Girl, do you want to buy a house?" It was a middle-aged woman, and she looked very smiling.
"Yes, I opened a shop outside, and it's inconvenient to go back and forth. I thought if there was a house nearby with a suitable price, I would buy it and live there myself. But in the end..."
Huang Xinran smiled somewhat disappointedly.
"You want to buy a house? Coincidentally, I have one for sale. Do you want to take a look?" The old lady was very enthusiastic. She pointed to the house not far away and pulled her to take a look.
In fact, the appearance of the bungalows in this row is the same, and the difference is the various furniture inside. After all, these are houses allocated for the benefit of employees, and many of them are elderly people who have lived in them for many years.
Huang Xinran hesitated for just a moment before being pulled over by the other party to look around.
Compared to the previous one, her house is a little farther away from the shop she rented, and is located at the end of this row of bungalows. Therefore, her house has the same area, and the garden outside surrounds the house on three sides, which is much larger than the previous one.
When asked about the price, the old lady was at a loss as to what to do and hurriedly pulled her son over.
It turned out that this house was the welfare house of her old man. Now her son got a bigger one and decided to get married at the end of this year. He was short of money and it happened that her son got a share of the welfare house. So she thought of selling the house to cash in.
"I don't want much, just 2,500. My family takes good care of this house, and I'll leave the vegetables in the garden outside for you."
That dish is worth a few bucks.
Huang Xinran shook his head: "Brother, your price is too high. To be honest, although I want to buy it, I definitely can't give you so much. If you really want to sell it, just tell me the real price..."
The two started a verbal fight.
Huang Xinran insisted on a price of around 1,500 yuan, but he refused to budge after the other party lowered the price to 2,200 yuan.
Seeing that the children were out of school, Huang Xinran didn't plan to continue to bargain: "How about this, 1,800 yuan. I'll pay for the transfer fees. If you agree, we'll go together tomorrow morning. If not, we can reconsider it."
"Too little, too little... No, I really can't sell it at the price you offer."
The other party was also helpless. The woman wanted three major items: a black and white TV, a single-tub washing machine and a tape recorder, and not even one less would do.
How can a mere one or two thousand dollars be enough to buy all these?
Huang Xinran knew, however, that the dowry these days would soon change, and by then, the tape recorder would have to be replaced with a refrigerator, and the black-and-white TV would have to be replaced with a color TV. That would cost more money.
The two sides disagreed and parted unhappily.
Although Huang Xinran went back, she still felt sad when she thought about the bungalow.
Regardless of whether it can be demolished in the future, it is worthless to buy a house for a few thousand dollars. If she hadn't been really broke, she would have bought it right away...
