Chapter 42: Disagreement
"Yanlin, just listen to me, let's buy that house. I've really thought about it carefully." Deng Xiuzhen didn't know how to explain, but she knew that Qin Yanlin said this because he disagreed and his attitude was quite firm.
"What can we do with the money we buy there? Can we really raise chickens and pigs? Let's not talk about whether we can make money by raising pigs and chickens, how many people are raising pigs and chickens, or how we will lose all our money if chicken plague occurs. Let's just talk about what to do with our children's education?
It takes an hour for adults to get out of that mountain cave. How much longer will it take for children? Besides, Wen Yu is still so young! "Tan Yanlin was angry. His tone was obviously heavier and more emotional.
"Yanlin, don't be angry. I tell you, that place will not be remote in the future and will be very valuable." Seeing that Tan Yanlin was angry, Deng Xiuzhen became a little anxious and thought about telling the truth.
"Who told you that? Did someone trick you? How could that damn place be worth money?
Xiuzhen, how can you believe such words? It's so desolate there, even more desolate than our village, and you still say it's not remote. Does it mean it's remote only if we go deep into the mountains and forests and can't get out for days and nights?"
"Yanlin, I had a dream. I dreamed that place will develop greatly in the future..." In desperation, Deng Xiuzhen wanted to imitate the protagonists of those time-travel dramas and use her own dream to convince Tan Yanlin.
"Xiuzhen, I don't know why you insisted on buying that piece of land, but you don't have to make up such nonsense to lie to me!
Since you are like this, I will be honest with you: I absolutely do not agree to buy that place! "Tan Yanlin said and walked away. He didn't want to quarrel with Deng Xiuzhen, but he would not compromise on this matter.
Last time he bought a store, he was cheated out of money. Later, some other things happened, and he spent all his money on buying Mamu. Fortunately, he had a good eye and seized the opportunity. Running Mamu not only maintained his living expenses, but also saved some money.
There are more and more people driving motocross on the streets now, and he predicts that there will be even more next year. By then, it will be difficult to maintain living expenses, let alone save money.
Every day when he drove the bus, he would observe and inquire about the business situation on the street and listen to the people sitting in the bus. Based on these, he keenly realized that selling electrical appliances was a viable way.
He calculated the money in his family and realized that it might not be possible to rent a store directly to purchase goods, because the store was rented for more than one year, the rent had to be paid in advance, and a deposit was also required.
After paying this money, he had little money left to buy goods. He could not run out of stock when doing business. This was the experience he had learned from doing business for many years. If someone came into the store and saw that everything was out of stock, they would generally go to another store, and then his business would be difficult.
A few days ago, he found a good friend who agreed to help him find a channel for purchasing goods, and the friend would pay part of the payment first and the rest after the goods were sold. But the price would be a little higher than others.
The store has been found and the owner agreed to pay me in several installments, but the rent will be higher.
He calculated that it was still profitable, and if the business was successful, it would get better and better.
He believed in himself and that he could do well as long as he worked hard. He even foresaw that he could buy a house and a store by selling electrical appliances and let his children live a good life.
His electrical appliance store is now in the preparation stage and he is extremely short of money. He really does not have the money to let Deng Xiuzhen buy those old houses that are completely useless.
Seeing Tan Yanlin walking away, Deng Xiuzhen felt helpless, but she couldn't give up buying a cheap house and cheap land.
After thinking about it, she felt that Tan Yanlin would open a shop next year, so she quietly took some money to buy the foundation of the house.
Then he secretly made up for it. Anyway, Tan Yanlin didn’t know how much he earned every morning by driving MaMu.
If anyone asks, just say business isn't as good as before.
Having made up her mind, Deng Xiuzhen stopped worrying about it. After settling the children down, she went to bed early.
The next morning, she drove the Numbah as usual, but around eight o'clock, she went to Bridge Lane.
Zhu Laoqi kept his promise and waited at home. Because he was introduced by an acquaintance, Deng Xiuzhen also knew about it indirectly and had visited the place on site, so he had a high degree of trust.
The two of them didn't waste any time and went straight to discussing the price.
Zhu Laoqi said, "I won't live in that house anyway. If you really want it, give me three hundred yuan for Brother Li's sake."
Deng Xiuzhen didn't know the price at that time. She compared it with the city and felt it was a bit expensive. She wanted to negotiate a deal as soon as possible so that she could go to Mamu. So she said directly: "Can it be cheaper? It's just a few mud houses, and they are going to collapse again."
Zhu Laoqi said unhappily, "There's a field in front of the house, and you can farm next to it. Nowadays, land transfers are 1,000 to 2,000 yuan per mu. You got such a great bargain, and you're still saying you're losing money!"
Deng Xiuzhen's eyes lit up: "You mean the land in front of the house and the land beside the house are also included?"
"Even if you buy the house, I won't live there. I won't be able to use the yard and vegetable fields, so I'll give it to you." Zhu Laoqi said generously.
This was a surprise! Deng Xiuzhen was delighted, but she didn't show it on her face.
He asked in a normal tone, "Do you still have land there?"
"What? You still think it's not enough? I would rather leave the land idle than let you farm it! If you want this house, take it. If you don't want it, forget it!" Zhu Laoqi was angry.
"That's not what I meant. I meant that if you have any land to sell, I will buy it as well." Deng Xiuzhen explained quickly.
"Buy land? What are you buying it for?" After hearing what Deng Xiuzhen said, Zhu Laoqi's anger subsided, but he was puzzled: It is said that there is no such thing as a profit without hard work, so why did she buy the land over there? Is there some way to make money that she has not discovered?
Being smart and scheming, he immediately integrated the information he had learned, but found no information about any changes in that area.
Seeing that Zhu Laoqi was suspicious, Deng Xiuzhen quickly explained: "I came from the countryside. I couldn't find a good way to make a living in the city, and I was afraid of being laughed at if I went back. So I thought about raising chickens and pigs.
But Uncle Li is also raising livestock, and there are only those things on the mountain, so I thought of buying some land to grow crops. First, it can solve the food problem for my family. Second, if I want to raise more livestock and grow crops myself, I will have rice bran and vegetables to feed the livestock, and I don’t have to buy them. Third, if I have fields, land and a house here, I will feel at ease. ”
After hearing what Deng Xiuzhen said, Zhu Laoqi felt relieved and told Deng Xiuzhen: "I have a total of 12 acres over there. If you want, I can transfer 6 acres to you. I will give you the land near the east."
Deng Xiuzhen calculated in her mind how much money six acres of land would cost, and wondered if Tan Yanlin would be angry if she used the money to buy the land.
Zhu Laoqi thought Deng Xiuzhen knew where his family's land was and was not satisfied with the barren wasteland he gave her, so he quickly explained: "I understand your situation, but I can't cut off my own way out just because I understand you. If I can't make a good living one day, I have to go back to farm."
