Ji Yue was also a little surprised.
"We can discuss the price, it's not the most important thing." Su Qingyun was not scared by the price quoted by Mrs. Mo, and still said with a smile.
Nowadays, ten thousand yuan is basically the price of a courtyard house in the center of Beijing. Although this house is not a courtyard house, it is not much different. Moreover, the decoration and furniture of this house are all made of real materials, and many of them are precious woods, which are also very valuable. So although the price of ten thousand yuan is expensive, it is not too exaggerated.
"What I'm more concerned about is your request. After all, if we can't meet your request, you won't sell this house no matter how high the price is, right?"
"You little girl really understand my thoughts." Old Mrs. Mo looked surprised and praised.
"Brother Hang mentioned that before."
"Xiao Chen, you did better than those people in your bureau." Old Mrs. Mo also praised Chen Yuhang.
Chen Yuhang smiled, "It's my duty, Grandma Mo."
Mrs. Mo paused and continued, "This house is the old home of our Mo family. I have lived here for dozens of years. Xiao Chen should have told you that this house was originally a pawnshop, and later it was converted into a residence. You can see it from the outside. The only thing that can be connected to the pawnshop is the door. It is also the only place that shows that our Mo family was prosperous in the past."
When Mrs. Mo said this, Su Qingyun was stunned. She seemed to have guessed what the old lady wanted.
"My only request is that no matter who buys this house, I don't care how it is rearranged, but the sign of our Longji Pawn Shop must be retained outside and cannot be changed or removed."
this……
Upon hearing this request, Su Aimin and Qin Ying were stunned. If the house was sold to someone else, it would no longer belong to her, but she still had to keep the doorhead. What was going on?
Su Qingyun said in her heart, "As expected." When Mrs. Mo emphasized the door sign several times, she had almost guessed it.
Chen Yuhang saw the expressions of several people and groaned in his heart. He knew that this would be their reaction when they heard this request.
The biggest reason why the house has not been sold is that Mrs. Mo requires that the buyer must keep the doorhead. After spending so much money to buy a house, he still has no right to change the doorhead to his own, and it has to be under someone else's name. No one can understand this. It would be strange if she agreed to such a strange request.
"This is my only request. If you don't want to, you can leave after watching it." Old Mrs. Mo did not show much disappointment. She had guessed that several people would have this reaction. She was not unfamiliar with it, but this was her only insistence.
this……
Qin Ying and Su Aimin exchanged a look, somewhat hesitant. They did like the house, but this requirement...
Su Qingyun thought for a moment and asked Mrs. Mo, "Grandma, can I ask why?"
Now it was Mrs. Mo's turn to be stunned. Every time she expressed her request, she heard "impossible" and "no". This was the first time someone's reaction was to ask her "why". It was really strange.
She looked at Su Qingyun's clear eyes and didn't want to say more, but somehow she opened her mouth.
"Our Mo family made our fortune in the early years by running a pawnshop. Back then, we were considered a well-known family in the capital. Later, war broke out, and the people became impoverished and homeless. Our pawnshop couldn't continue, and everything was demolished, leaving only the storefront, as if the former prosperity of our Longji Pawnshop still existed."
"Our Mo family used the money we earned from Longji Pawn Shop to support the war effort, actively donating money and supplies, and almost squandered all our wealth."
"I want to keep this sign, not because I'm vain or want to preserve the dignity of Long Ji and our Mo family. I just want to leave a memory for myself, and I also want to leave a symbol for future generations to remember Long Ji. Let them know what this pawnshop has sacrificed, what we can't forget, and that our turbulent and dark history needs to be remembered."
“That’s why it stays.”
Old Mrs. Mo said these extremely heavy words in a light tone, and everyone was stunned. They had not expected that there was such a deep meaning behind this seemingly strange and stubborn request.
