The sales manager smiled brightly when he saw Du Shaojie coming back so soon.
There was nothing much to say, this was a high-quality customer. After asking for instructions, the sales manager immediately exempted Du Shaojie from one year's property management fee.
The entire community project was carried out in stages, and several buildings have been completed. Du Shaojie was equivalent to buying a ready-made house. Of course, there is no such thing as pre-sale houses now, and selling
pre-sale houses is a matter of many years. Du Shaojie paid the money and got the key to Room 301 of Unit 1 of Building 1. The sales manager sent them to the gate of the community.
"Mr. Du, take care! I will notify you as soon as the property certificate comes down."
Before Du Shaojie and Liang Meiqin left Donghu New Village, they consulted the sales manager and asked where to find someone to do the decoration.
It was not that he was impatient, but mainly because Lao Zheng had not returned yet, and he and Liang Meiqin had nothing to do.
After walking for about 10 minutes, Du Shaojie found a group of men who were smoking and chatting. These people were the contractors for the renovation. He found two who looked pleasing to the eye and took them to the newly bought house.
Liang Meiqin bargained with the other party and finally finalized the price of the labor and materials.
The current renovation is not that complicated at all. It can be done in a few days by smoothing the floor and painting the walls white.
"Boss, please give us a little money. We won't run away."
Du Shaojie refused to give an advance payment, and the two workers pestered him.
"You buy the materials tomorrow, and I will pay you half when the project is halfway done. There will be no problem when everything is done. I will pay the remaining half immediately. Just tell me whether you want to do it or not. If not, I will find someone else right away."
Du Shaojie was a little annoyed. The two people gave up and said they would guarantee to do a beautiful job.
The next morning, he and Liang Meiqin went to take a look. As expected, the two workers bought the materials and had already started the work.
Then the two went to find Uncle Chai and finally met Lao Zheng.
"Look at my yard, it's spacious enough, and the area of the three floors combined is 300 square meters. Although the storefront is not big, the location is good. With your cooking skills, you will definitely make money."
Old Zheng is in his forties, and the amount of hair is terrible, but he is eloquent.
He asked for 80,000 yuan for the yard and 35,000 yuan for the storefront, which is definitely a lion's mouth.
Old Zheng's house is not comparable to "Donghu New Village". The houses in Donghu New Village are luxury houses at present. They cost 700 yuan per square meter, and his house is expensive at 200 yuan per square meter.
The cost of building a house nowadays is between 100 yuan and 150 yuan per square meter. The total cost of building Old Zheng's three-story building will not exceed 35,000 yuan.
Including the yard, the valuation of the whole house is about 50,000 yuan.
Even if there is a premium, it is worth at most 60,000 yuan. The storefront, not counting the back kitchen, is only about 30 square meters, and 20,000 yuan is the limit.
Therefore, the price that Du Shaojie can accept is between 70,000 and 80,000 yuan.
In his previous life, he had seen many posts on the Internet, saying that in the early 1980s, a courtyard in Beijing could be bought for 2,000 yuan.
He didn't know what the courtyard people were talking about was like, but the courtyard of Old Zheng's house was far more than that, about 30 times more.
Of course, there are certain differences in housing prices between the two places now, and it cannot be generalized.
"Uncle Zheng, you are not sincere when you say that, right? You know best how much your shop and house are worth. So, I'll pay 60,000 yuan for the shop and the house, okay, I'll buy it."
"60,000 yuan is too little. It takes only a few minutes for you, Chef Du, to make money. We are all acquaintances. You can make an integer for me, 100,000 yuan, what do you think?"
The two of them exchanged sharp words and bargained.
Uncle Chai accompanied Liang Meiqin to chat on the side. Uncle Chai didn't know what to say, but the way he pouted from time to time was actually a little dissatisfied with Old Zheng.
After all, he was the one who introduced Du Shaojie to buy a house, so why did Old Zheng just start to slaughter him?
Later, Du Shaojie raised the price to 65,000, and Old Zheng reduced it to 80,000. From this point, it can be seen that Lao Zheng is actually more anxious than Du Shaojie.
In this kind of thing, whoever is anxious will lose. In the end, Du Shaojie successfully won the house and storefront at a price of 70,000 yuan.
The two parties signed a contract first, and Du Shaojie paid a deposit of 1,000 yuan to the other party.
There are still many procedures to go through, which is very troublesome. Du Shaojie will wait until the transfer to pay the full amount.
In the evening.
Du Shaojie and Liang Meiqin invited Dr. Wu to have a meal, and both the host and the guest enjoyed it.
The next step is to wait for Lao Zheng to go through the procedures. He will only go when Du Shaojie needs to come out.
Taking advantage of the relatively free time, Du Shaojie went to visit Director Luo
. Hearing that Du Shaojie bought another yard and a shop in Yangcheng, Director Luo couldn't help rolling his eyes.
How persistent a person must be to do this, one property after another, isn't he afraid that the policy will change and it will be gone?
But this is not easy to say, he can only complain in his heart.
"Xiao Du, I'll ask about the transfer of the property rights for you, just get it done quickly. Also, I heard about Miqin's affairs from Xiao Cai, let's see where she wants to develop.
If you want to go to Shenzhen, go find Xiao Cai, she will make all the arrangements. If you want to stay in Guangzhou, tell me and I'll make the arrangements."
It's said that Director Luo doesn't have much real power, but it depends on who you compare him with.
He can solve ordinary trivial matters with just one phone call.
"Thank you, Director Luo! I'll talk to her later and see what she decides. It's getting late, I'll go back first, and when I'm free in a few days, I'll cook a few of your favorite dishes."
Du Shaojie was on a courtesy visit today, and he left after sitting for an hour.
Director Luo nodded and sent him to the door.
When Du Shaojie returned to the hotel, it was just getting dark. So he took Liang Meiqin to the night market and solved the problem of dinner.
The next morning, Director Luo called the hotel and said that he had contacted someone for him and gave him a name and phone number. He could just go to the person to do the work.
Du Shaojie expressed his gratitude again and again, and then went to handle the formalities with Lao Zheng.
With the help of an acquaintance, the transfer of ownership was handled very quickly, and all the formalities were completed in one day.
Du Shaojie paid the remaining balance, and Lao Zheng immediately handed him the key to the shop. The house still needs to be cleaned up, and it will be emptied in three days, and then the house can be handed over.
After more than a week of hard work, these trivial matters were finally handled.
"Meiqin, is it boring?"
"Not boring, I think it's quite interesting."
Du Shaojie and Liang Meiqin were cleaning the storefront. The facilities in the back kitchen were basically all there, and if there were any shortcomings, they would buy them later. The tables, chairs and benches in front were quite worn out, so they were all sold as junk to a furniture collector.
They ordered new tables, chairs and benches yesterday, as well as some kitchen utensils for the kitchen, which will be delivered soon.
"Ah Jie, you can just hire two people to do this kind of work, why do you have to do it yourself? Have you cleaned up Old Zheng's house? Do you want me to call a few people to help you?"
The delivery man and Uncle Chai came in one after another. Uncle Chai looked at Du Shaojie and Liang Meiqin, who were sweating profusely, and shook his head.
Du Shaojie didn't care. What's the harm in doing a little work? It's not like he can't do it.
"Uncle Chai, thank you for your kindness. I need to repaint Uncle Zheng's house, and the workers came early in the morning. I'll find you again when I need help after I've cleaned it up."
"Yeah, is the store almost done? When will you open for business?"
Uncle Chai nodded, and then urged Du Shaojie to open for business.
Du Shaojie didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He had a lot of things to do recently, and he had to arrange Liang Meiqin's work. He didn't have time to spend every day in the store.
"Let's talk about it in a few days, when I'm done with the things at hand. Uncle Chai, just tell me what you want to eat, I can make some when I have time."
Uncle Chai is a very good person, and Du Shaojie is willing to have a good relationship with him.
"Haha, this is what you said, otherwise, when you are free, you can make some [Boiled Chicken] or [Roast Duck], we are looking forward to it, and if you really don't have time, you can just fry some beef noodles."
"Uncle Chai, you asked, how can I not do it? Come over tomorrow at noon, I guarantee there will be delicious food."
Du Shaojie waited for Uncle Chai to leave, and continued to clean up the store with Liang Meiqin.
There was no way to cook today, so the two of them went to buy various seasonings and came back, and then went to a restaurant outside for lunch. After dinner, they went to the newly bought house for a look. The two people who were responsible for the renovation project were still the two people who did the decoration for Donghu New Village.
The two did a great job and the price was reasonable, so after the renovation of Donghu New Village was completed, they were allowed to continue. In
the afternoon, the two went to buy new furniture, household appliances and daily necessities, and then sent them to their new home in Donghu New Village. The house is more than 90 square meters, with three bedrooms and a living room, a bathroom and a kitchen.
A few days ago, Wang Yuxiu remitted 200,000 yuan to Du Shaojie in several installments, and he was not short of money.
"It looks pretty good after being cleaned up like this."
As night fell, Du Shaojie and Liang Meiqin admired the fruits of their labor in the house.
Although it was not magnificent, it was clean and tidy, and it looked very comfortable.
The furniture was basically complete, and there were not many varieties of electrical appliances, including a Wanbao refrigerator, a 14-inch black and white Panda TV, and three electric fans.
Du Shaojie looked at Liang Meiqin's expectant eyes and smiled and said, "Check out the hotel tomorrow and move in."
Liang Meiqin nodded vigorously. If it was in the old street, she would be embarrassed to live under the same roof with Du Shaojie. After all, many people knew them and were afraid of attracting criticism.
In Donghu New Village, no one knows each other, so she has no psychological pressure at all.
At this time, someone knocked on the door. Du Shaojie opened the door and saw that it was the property management who delivered a gas tank. This is a gift when you buy a house, and the gas supply book is also delivered together.
The city has invested some money in the first commercial housing community.
Du Shaojie and Liang Meiqin then left Donghu New Village and took a car back to the hotel. The two places are not far apart, and the bus ride takes nearly 20 minutes, so the transportation is quite convenient.
"Meiqin, have you thought about it? Do you want to stay in Guangzhou or go to Shenzhen?"
Du Shaojie's business this time was basically settled, and the next question was how to settle Liang Meiqin.
During dinner, he asked casually.
"Are you going back?"
Liang Meiqin was stunned and answered the question irrelevantly. (End of this chapter)
