We worked diligently for half a month. Although we were exhausted every day, we all felt at ease and happy.
It is said that people are not divided into different classes, but in reality, workers from different classes and industries live different lives. Rich people do not have to worry about the pressure of life. At least when they encounter things that can be solved with money, they have money to spend.
In half a month, Shen Anning saw an old lady who was still suffering because she gave birth to too many children when she was young and did not receive timely care. She also saw the so-called "dump necks" who carry heavy objects on their shoulders all year round and some of their bones are dislocated and can never be corrected. She also met many people who work hard to survive.
The moment she handed in the homework, Shen Anning understood Mr. Cheng's intention of asking them to come for the free clinic. As a doctor, they will face temptations and threats in their future careers. People's moral bottom line will become lower and lower as bad things happen. Therefore, maintaining compassion is a rare quality for a good doctor.
After the free clinic, the eldest brother also gave Shen An Ning a gift, which was his study notes from the first ten years after he entered the sect. As the best disciple in medical skills personally appointed by Master Cheng, it is not an exaggeration to say that this gift is a family heirloom.
When Shen Anning took the note, he was still a little bit unbelievable, "Well, thank you, Senior Brother."
Fang Boyu nodded in a very "cold" manner, "Well, you must maintain your passion for medicine and keep working hard. I hope to see your progress at the next free clinic."
She nodded with some surprise and some helplessness. Shen Anning was originally quite touched, but after hearing what the senior brother said, she seriously suspected that the senior brother was afraid that there would be no one to sit next to him as his assistant during the next free clinic. Was this another disguised form of advance reservation?
Well, for the sake of the codex, she accepted it.
After taking the final exams for two subjects, summer vacation officially began.
As summer vacation approached, Peng Zhe alone knew of more than a dozen courtyard houses near the school and the city gate that were looking to sell. Some of the owners had been sent down under and had returned, and their houses had long since been converted into shanty towns. Even if the street authorities wanted to intervene, they couldn't do anything. If the residents refused to vacate their homes, they would cause a commotion, which could lead to bloodshed and cause trouble.
Some homeowners had fled to Hong Kong and abroad when the news broke. Now that they have communication with China, they asked their friends in China to sell their houses. They have lived abroad for more than ten years and have become accustomed to the life there. They are also worried that what happened ten years ago will happen again, and they can't afford to go through another turmoil.
This year's college entrance examination is held on July 7th, so the cram school will have classes for about ten days before the college entrance examination, and then all teachers will take a month off and come back in early August to teach full-day courses for one month.
Geng Yue, Liu Jiaman and the others were busy with their cram school affairs, so Shen Anning took Peng Zhe and started to wander around the courtyard houses in Beijing that were rumored to be for sale.
I ran around for a whole morning and visited two places. Although they have both been converted into slums, the locations are really good. The two secondary courtyards are both near Xizhimen and are quite close to several good universities.
"Sister, I just checked it out. Although it's a bit messy inside, the exterior walls are well protected. After removing the shed inside, it shouldn't require any major repairs. I just don't know what the situation is like inside the house."
The value of the courtyard houses in the future is definitely not something that can be estimated with money, and for those who want to sell their houses and live in other countries, Shen Anning does not feel any guilt for buying these courtyards.
"No matter how much it costs, this courtyard house is worth it. Although we already have several courtyards, the Shen family will have more children in the future. Let's buy this first and then slowly replace it when we have the chance, so that everyone's house is closer."
Peng Zhe thought it made sense. "Okay, then what should we do with the people living there even if we buy them? We can't just forcibly evict them. If Grandpa and Dad knew about this, they would beat me to death!"
Shen Anning sighed inwardly. Her brother's cleverness and wit were intermittent rather than continuous. "Do you think people who live in the yard don't want to move out? Why do three generations of a family squeeze into two rooms? Do they like it?"
"Because they have no money, they have to squeeze in. We can negotiate with the landlord. If he asks for less, we can pay more to give the tenants some compensation. They can buy the factory's tube-shaped building or move to a better environment. If they have better options, they won't be willing to continue living here."
"Let's contact the owner first. We'll have a good chat with him this afternoon. If we finish early, we can look at two more properties."
It was a coincidence that both yards were entrusted to the same person for sale. The owner probably wanted to get a commission from the seller, so the negotiation process was not smooth.
"Mr. Liu, you're biting at a steep price. Although this yard is large, 80,000 yuan for a yard is still too expensive. Let's both compromise. You can offer a lower price, and we can negotiate with the tenants ourselves. This will save you a lot of trouble, right?"
Liu Chenggong also knew that this yard was indeed expensive according to the current price. Originally, selling the house was his father's job, and the yard also belonged to his father's former friend. However, the friend also said that no matter how much it was sold for, he would get half of it. Who would complain about having too much money?
"The price is a bit high, but the property rights of these two properties are clear. The residents are just tenants. They used to pay rent to the street every month. If this courtyard was built ten or twenty years ago, only the wealthy could afford to live there."
Shen Anning was a little impatient. Xu Hongxia's family also lived in a slum. The market price of a room was only a little over a thousand yuan, and the most expensive monthly rent was only about ten yuan. If it was 80,000 yuan, it would still be acceptable in five or six years, but now? He really dared to speak up.
"Mr. Liu, since you're not sincere, there's no need for us to talk. There are so many people selling their homes in Beijing these days, but how many of them have the money? At your price, you should keep the house."
Seeing that Shen Anning and the others really stood up to leave, Liu Chenggong quickly stood up to stop them, "Don't be anxious, young man, let's talk about the price. If you really want it, I will be sincere, right?"
"Two sets for 80,000!"
Poof! Liu Chenggong spat out a mouthful of tea. The price was cut in half!
"Oh, that's not suitable. This is a two-courtyard house with 27 or 28 rooms in each courtyard, and there are two courtyards. You only offer 40,000 yuan per unit. This won't do." Liu Chenggong's heart was bleeding, because the owner of the house and his father had agreed to sell it for a minimum of 40,000 yuan per unit.
"We paid 80,000 yuan for the yard, and we'll have to pay for all the tenants to move out later. Only then will the house belong to us completely. Mr. Liu, it's not as simple as you think. There are 40 or 50 people living in one yard. You go and get them to move out, and I'll raise the price."
How could Liu Chenggong dare to do that? It was not like he had been there before. He had taken people from the street office and asked some thugs to go, but it was all useless. He almost got beaten up.
Some people are afraid that they won’t be able to spend the money they have earned!
