Just after breakfast, people from the Ministry of Commerce approached Su Bo and Su Lin.
"Comrade Su, Comrade Su, we've found three houses for you. If you have time, we can take you to see them."
After learning that these two overseas compatriots wanted to find a house, Director Yu from the Ministry of Commerce used many connections over the past few days and finally got him to find one for them.
So, they quickly came over to tell Uncle Su and Su Lin. If these compatriots were to return to settle and invest, it would be very beneficial for them.
So, Officer Yu, you must do this job well.
"I'm free right now. If Comrade Yu finds it troublesome, could you perhaps take us to see it?"
Su Ge was overjoyed to hear this good news, finally able to help his younger siblings.
"No trouble, but I'll take you two to have a look now."
Officer Yu waved his hand dismissively. This was also part of his job. Receiving these overseas compatriots and Chinese businessmen was an important part of his work, and meeting their reasonable requests was also part of his job.
So, helping him find a house is also part of his job, so Officer Yu should do his best.
The car quickly drove out of the hotel and headed straight for the first apartment that Officer Yu had helped find.
"Mr. Su, Mr. Su, this house is a courtyard house with one and a half courtyards. It used to be an office, but it has been taken back. Although it is a bit small, it is well maintained."
Officer Yu had already taken the key, so there was no need to find someone to open the door. While unlocking the door, he introduced the basic information about the house to the Su father and son.
If it's only halfway in, it's definitely small.
Without a proper three-story house, Su Gebo would have really liked it. However, after learning about the housing situation in Beijing these past few days, he became more accepting of it.
As Officer Yu said, this small courtyard house is indeed well maintained; apart from the dust, the doors and windows are all intact.
Su Gebo and Su Lin carefully inspected the house, then said nothing and asked Officer Yu to take them to see the next house.
The next house was a two-section courtyard house, a bit larger than the first one, but not as well maintained. The ground was uneven and looked somewhat dilapidated.
"This house was taken back by the landlord two years ago. The family was transferred to work in the south, and they probably plan to come back, so they decided to sell this yard."
Officer Yu explained the situation of the second house, saying that if the price of this house was too high, making it unaffordable for potential buyers, it would not have sold.
In addition, the owner of this house is actually a colleague from the ministry next door. Last year, he was transferred to work in Shenzhen. He's doing very well there and has a bright future, so he decided to move his family there and settle down, and decided to sell this house.
"As long as the property rights are clear and there are no disputes, it's fine."
Su Gebo finally nodded and said this: This was an important task given to him by his younger brother and sister-in-law, and he was afraid he might mess it up.
"The property certificate is in his own name, and he has no siblings or other random relatives competing with him."
Officer Yu solemnly assured Uncle Su that their department had taken the matter very seriously after learning that Uncle Su wanted to buy a house, and how could they possibly fail here?!
Uncle Su nodded, and then he and his son carefully looked around the entire yard.
It was already past 2:30 PM, so Uncle Su and Su Lin invited Officer Yu and the driver to lunch, saying they would continue their work afterward.
Then they found a restaurant by the roadside, and took Officer Yu and the driver inside.
After the four of them finished lunch, Su Gongbo made a phone call to Qiao Jiuru and asked her to come out and take a look at the house.
After listening to the address given by Officer Yu over the phone, Qiao Jiuru immediately got on her bicycle and set off.
When she arrived at that courtyard, Uncle Su and the others were already waiting outside the house.
"Comrade Yu, this is my sister-in-law, Qiao Jiuru, a professor in Beijing. I'm planning to buy a house for my brother and his family, so I invited her to come and take a look."
Su Gongbo introduced Qiao Jiuru to Officer Yu, but there was no need for an introduction, as Officer Yu was very clear about the Su family's affairs.
"Professor Qiao, hello. This is Yu Xiangbei, an officer from the Ministry of Commerce."
Now it became clear why the director had called this professor from Beijing to look at the house; it turned out that Mr. Su was planning to buy a house for his younger brother's family.
"Hello, Comrade Yu, thank you for your help."
Qiao Jiuru greeted Officer Yu politely. She had met him once before, when Su Gongbo and his group first came to Beijing to look for them.
"It's troublesome, it's troublesome."
Officer Yu waved his hand repeatedly, saying that this was his job and it was no trouble at all.
Moreover, Mr. Su and his son are exceptionally amiable and approachable people; they even donated 50,000 yuan to Beijing. Currently, the Ministry of Commerce hopes the Su family will invest here.
The third house is also a two-courtyard siheyuan (traditional courtyard house), and it is very well maintained. It used to be an office for a certain organization. It's good that such a house was returned, and it's also good that it has been preserved so well.
All three houses are in the same location, and they are all good houses, so there shouldn't be any disputes or trouble.
"Comrade Yu, what are the prices of these three houses?!"
Having seen all the houses, Su Gongbo had a good idea of what to expect, so he asked directly.
"Mr. Su, the first house costs 18,000 yuan, the second house costs 28,000 yuan, and this house costs 26,000 yuan."
Officer Yu guessed that the Su family should be satisfied, but they would ask about the price, even though it was exorbitantly expensive, something that people like them could only afford.
After all, the houses we currently live in are allocated by our work units; we don't need to pay for them. Even if we did have to pay, they would be quite cheap, and we could afford them.
However, private houses like these are different; not only is the rent high, but the house price is even higher, making them unaffordable for ordinary people.
"Director Yu, could these three houses be reduced in price a little more? If they could be reduced in price, I would buy them all and give one to each of my three nephews and nieces."
Su Gebo directly told Yu Ganshi that he planned to buy the three houses and give them to his nephew and niece. The houses here were too cheap; three houses wouldn't even cost 70,000 yuan.
He had planned to give tens of thousands of dollars to his younger brother and sister-in-law, but after buying the house, he still had half left.
Officer Yu had suspected this before, and now that he heard Old Master Su being so frank, he thought about it.
"Comrade Su, I need to find three houses and finish negotiating before I can get back to you."
He could only say he would try his best, but he probably wouldn't be able to negotiate much.
"Alright, then we'll wait for Comrade Yu's good news."
"By the way, Comrade Yu, I'll give you a sneak peek: our Su family is planning to invest here."
After Su Gongbo learned that Qiao Jiuru had the idea of opening a factory and doing business, he naturally trusted his sister-in-law. Since she thought that investing here would be very profitable, he had no reason to hesitate.
Sure enough, Officer Yu was very happy to hear this; his hard work these past few days had finally paid off.
"Mr. Su has good taste."
