After the final exams, before Shen Anning had time to relax, Geng Yue dragged her around to look at houses.
After discussing with Wang Jiadong, she planned to book a house before the New Year and have both sets of parents come to Beijing to celebrate the New Year. Coincidentally, Geng Yue's younger brother Guoqing was admitted to the Beijing Railway Institute in this year's college entrance examination. During the winter vacation, he and Shen Anyu worked together at Huayan.
What surprised Shen An Ning was that his younger brother An Yu did not choose to join the army in the end, but chose to study ideology and politics at the School of Humanities and Social Sciences of Tsinghua University. It was when he was filling out his application form that Shen An Ning realized that this kid had always wanted to join the army just to protect his family. Seeing that his younger brother had been more mature since he was a child and now had grown up, he really had grown up.
Shen Anxuan applied for the China Foreign Affairs University in the college entrance examination. She said that due to many reasons, she had not been able to travel around the world like her parents did when they were young, so she wanted to be an excellent diplomat and see the differences in the world.
The family is 100% supportive of their choice. If it were more than a decade ago, Shen's father and mother might have had a lot of ideas. After experiencing so many things, they just think that as long as their children are happy and safe, that's enough.
Because Shen Anxuan chose the diplomacy major, which had many language requirements, she followed Qin Wan during the winter vacation. With a ready-made teacher, she made rapid progress.
Everyone had something to do, but Shen Anning seemed to be free all of a sudden, so when Geng Yue asked her out to look at the house, she agreed without saying a word.
She also wanted to see if there was any property in Liu Chenggong's possession that she wanted. Since Huayan opened, business had been getting better and better. More than one customer and their staff had expressed their wish that Huayan could open a property near them.
The moment Liu Chenggong saw Shen Anning, his eyes lit up. This was his big money sponsor!
"Oh, Miss Shen, long time no see. Are you bringing your friends here to buy a house again?"
Shen Anning was already accustomed to Liu Chenggong's attitude. She pulled Geng Yue, who was still in a daze, and said, "Yes, Boss Liu's business is booming."
"Hehehe, I'm just making a living. I have you to thank for that. If you hadn't inspired me back then, I wouldn't have found the right thing to do." Liu Chenggong was genuinely happy. This past year, just by finding properties, finding buyers, and helping sell them, he'd earned more money than an average worker could possibly earn in their entire life. Because of his improved financial situation, his relationship with his parents had also improved. His father used to dislike him as much as he could, but now? He'd experienced the fatherly love he'd only experienced as a child. He'd experience it again at this age.
"Oh, by the way, Miss Shen, what kind of house does your friend want? I'm not exaggerating, there's no house for sale in this area that I don't know."
Seeing him patting his chest, Shen Anning had to admit that Liu Chenggong was really talented in fooling people.
Looking at Geng Yue, Shen Anning asked: "Yueyue, what kind of house do you want to buy?"
"Let's buy a small yard. I've also heard from my classmates that nowadays everyone wants convenience and wants to live in an apartment building, so the price of apartments is too high. So we thought we'd just buy a yard so that our family can live here when they come."
Shen Anning nodded secretly. It would be good to buy a yard. Whether it is demolished or kept in the future, it will be worth a lot of money.
After following Liu Chenggong to look at three courtyards, Geng Yue was interested in buying the last two-story one they saw. Although it was a little far from the central city, it had many rooms, which would be enough for her and Wang Jiadong to bring their parents over to live in the future.
"An Ning, what do you think of this two-story house? It has plenty of rooms and is well-protected. Although the location is a bit off, transportation in Beijing is quite convenient now."
Shen Anning didn't rush to give his opinion, but looked at Liu Chenggong, "Boss Liu, what do you think of the price of this yard?"
Although Liu Chenggong wanted to ask for a higher price, he had suffered at the hands of Shen Anning before. Although he was young, he was very shrewd. He made up his mind and prepared himself for several seconds. "Other people's prices are definitely not cheap, but it's you, Miss Shen, who brought your friends here to buy. So, the location of this yard is definitely not as good as the ones you bought before. Thirty-five thousand yuan, fixed price."
For a two-story house, although it is not in the main urban area, 35,000 yuan is really not expensive. After all, smart rich people have also started buying houses in the past year.
"What about the two who came in first?"
"Those two locations are great, Miss Shen, as you know, there are good schools and hospitals nearby. So, the price is definitely a bit higher, 20,000 per set."
Ana Shen nodded, "Okay, then let me discuss it with my friend first, and wait a few minutes."
Pulling Geng Yue aside, Shen Anning looked at her and asked, “Yueyue, what do you think?”
Geng Yue originally wanted to buy this two-courtyard house, but when she heard Shen An Ning ask this, she was not a fool. After all, she was already married. If her family members from her parents' home and her husband's family members lived together in the future, there would probably be friction over time.
"If you want peace, I'll buy the two that come in one."
"Yueyue, I think it's better for you to buy the two first-floor houses. Guoqing is also studying in Beijing now. In the future, you and your sister will both stay in Beijing. When your uncle and aunt get older, you will definitely want to bring them over. These two courtyards are just right. They are not too far away, nor too close. You can write your name on one and Wang Jiadong's name on the other. If you have two children in the future, it will be easy to divide them, right?"
Geng Yue agreed with what she heard. Although there is a family planning policy now, many people still like to have many children.
After thinking it over, Geng Yue quickly made a decision and spent 40,000 yuan. Looking at the remaining number on the passbook, she realized that the money was really too much to spend, and houses in Beijing were really expensive!
After receiving the two property deeds and thinking that one of them belonged to her, Geng Yue suddenly had a very strong idea at this moment. She would continue to work hard and make good money in the future, and strive to buy more houses, cars, and many other things with her own name on them.
After finishing Geng Yue's business, Shen Anning asked Liu Chenggong to help her keep an eye out for yards for sale outside the city. It didn't matter the location, as long as they were on the street.
"How many sets does Miss Shen want? I..."
"Do your best, but don't keep them all in the same area. It's best to keep them separate."
"Hey, don't worry, I promise to do everything right for you." Liu Chenggong was so happy that he even used honorifics. Looking at Shen Anning who was leaving, he sighed: "You still have to meet a wealthy customer. It's like opening an antique shop. If you open it, you can either not open it or you can make a living for three years!"
“It’s been three years since we opened!”
