Chapter 267 Buying the Imperial Courtyard



Chen Wang also knew that even if he asked Xiao Tang to negotiate with the landlord, he could only get a discount of one or two hundred yuan at most.

The house is still being built in their hometown, and they are in a hurry to go back. There is no need to waste time here for such a small amount of money.

One or two hundred dollars may not be a small amount of money at the moment.

But as time goes by, the value of this courtyard house will rise sharply, and it will not be a problem to increase it by hundreds of times. At that time, one or two hundred yuan will be just a drop in the bucket.

Xiao Tang called the landlord from a public telephone booth.

"Brother Chen, the landlord has agreed to come over for a meeting right away, let's wait here for a while!"

"OK!"

Chen Wang smiled and nodded.

After waiting for about half an hour, the owner of the house hurried over.

He was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties with a big belly. His surname was Liu and he was a native of the imperial capital.

At Xiao Tang's suggestion, everyone came to an antique teahouse to discuss things.

Xiao Tang called the waiter and ordered a pot of tea, and also asked for two signature snacks for the little girl and Lin Xiuqin.

After some small talk, tea was quickly served.

It is a scented tea that most people in the old imperial capital like to drink.

While drinking tea, Chen Wang and Mr. Liu talked about the house.

Since Chen Wang had no objection to the house price and Mr. Liu also felt that he was a straightforward person, the two sides had a smooth discussion and soon reached the stage of signing the contract.

Xiao Tang asked them to drink tea here and he left in a hurry.

In just over ten minutes, Xiao Tang came back with the contract.

There are three copies of the contract in total, one for each party, and the other copy is taken by Xiao Tang to the real estate transaction center for safekeeping.

Chen Wang and Mr. Liu each held a contract and browsed the important terms on it.

After confirming that there were no problems with every clause, the two signed the three contracts.

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Liu, thank you both."

Xiao Tang put away a contract, shook hands with the two men and thanked them with a bright smile.

If this order is successful, he can get two or three hundred yuan, which is equivalent to several months' salary of an ordinary worker.

The most important thing is that it is efficient enough. This is the most comfortable order he has ever made.

"Mr. Liu, it's a pleasure to work with you."

Chen Wang smiled and extended his right hand to the homeowner.

After the 1990s, when housing prices in the capital began to soar, the homeowner probably regretted his decision.

But that's none of his business.

“Happy cooperation!!”

Mr. Liu also shook hands with him with a smile on his face.

At least for now, he is still very excited. Once he gets the money, he can fly abroad with his family and start a new life.

However, the consumption level abroad is not comparable to that in China. I don’t know how long this family can enjoy this more than ten thousand yuan.

"There's still time, Mr. Liu. How about we go and complete the transfer procedures together? Then we can go to the bank and I'll transfer the money to you right away."

Chen Wang suggested.

"So urgent?"

Mr. Liu raised his wrist to check the time and said in embarrassment, "It's already past three o'clock. They're almost off work, right?"

"Let's go and have a look. Maybe there aren't too many people in line and we can get it done right away. To be honest, our house in my hometown is also under construction, so we have to go back quickly."

"Is that so... All right then!"

"Wife, why don't you and Xiaoyu go back to the hotel first?"

Chen Wang looked at Lin Xiuqin and said.

Lin Xiuqin nodded, stood up and took the little girl's hand.

"Be safe. If the bus is too crowded, don't squeeze in and take a taxi back."

Chen Wang gave an instruction.

"Brother, don't worry, I will take good care of my sister-in-law."

The little girl said with a smile.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

Chen Wang smiled and rubbed her head.

So, several people left the teahouse together.

Chen Wang sent his wife and little girl to the bus stop, and then took another bus with Mr. Liu and Xiao Tang to the real estate transaction management department.

Xiao Tang was most familiar with this process. With his help, the two quickly completed the transfer procedures.

Next comes the payment of taxes.

The deed tax for buying a house is still very high these days, usually 6%. 6% of RMB is exactly 888, a very auspicious number.

Having spent more than ten thousand yuan, Chen Wang naturally would not be stingy with the money.

I only had 700 yuan left in my hand, so I had to borrow 200 yuan from Mr. Liu first and add it to the amount when I transferred the house payment later.

The three of them then went to a nearby bank together, and Chen Wang transferred the house purchase money and the loan of 200, totaling yuan, to the account provided by Mr. Liu at one time.

At this point, the house buying process is basically completed.

Chen Wang also became the new owner of the courtyard house.

There is only one last step left, which is to go to the issuing department to apply for a new real estate certificate.

It's obviously too late today, so we can only wait until tomorrow.

After Mr. Liu received the money for buying the house, he had nothing else to do and just said goodbye and left.

Chen Wang declined Xiao Tang's invitation to dinner again, saying that he had to go back to the hotel to have dinner with his wife and sister.

"Xiao Tang, I will go to your company to see you tomorrow. Please take me to apply for the property certificate. I will need to trouble you to get the certificate later. I will come to the capital again when I have time."

Generally speaking, it will take at least 7 working days and at most 15 working days to get the real estate certificate after applying for it.

It is impossible for Chen Wang to stay that long, so he can only ask Xiao Tang to get it and come back next time to get it.

"Okay, don't worry, Brother Chen."

Xiao Tang smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I'll go back first. Will it still be 8 a.m. tomorrow?"

"Okay, I'll wait for you downstairs in the company then."

"OK, let's go!"

After returning to the hotel, Chen Wang handed his ID card and passbook to his wife for safekeeping.

There was yuan in the passbook, but now there is only 3,000 left.

I had more than 900 yuan in change, but only the last few dozen yuan were left.

Although she knew that the money was used to buy a house, Lin Xiuqin still felt distressed, as if the money she had saved for half a year was spent in an instant.

Even when Chen Wang suggested going out for a good meal to celebrate, she vetoed it, insisting that they should not spend money recklessly anymore.

Chen Wang was somewhat helpless, but he agreed to his wife's request. He went to a nearby restaurant to pack up two stir-fried dishes, ordered three servings of rice, and went back to the hotel room to have dinner together.

I was tired after running all day, so I didn't go out at night and just rested in the hotel.

The next morning, Chen Wang left the hotel alone, went to meet Xiao Tang downstairs of his company, and then went to apply for the property certificate.

After all the formalities are completed, all Xiao Tang needs to do is come back to get the property certificate.

Chen Wang also wrote down Xiao Tang’s company phone number so that he could call him when the time comes.

There is no telephone in the village, but Xiao Xu's family in the town does have a landline.

After saying goodbye to Xiao Tang, Chen Wang returned to the hotel.

There is still one day left to stay in the rented house, and all the things that need to be done have been done. The rest of the time will be spent accompanying my wife and little girl, playing and strolling around the capital.
