Chapter 155 Old House
Xu Youyou looked up at the locked door in front of her.
This is an old Western-style house. Looking in from the outside, you can see the lush greenery in the yard.
Just at this moment, the yard door was opened from the inside and a young man in his early twenties walked out.
The young man had dyed his hair white and wore a diamond earring on his left ear. He looked nonchalant, but his eyes lit up the first time he saw Xu Youyou.
"Beauty, do you want to go in and take some pictures? My house is visited by many internet celebrities who come to take pictures every day. I'll take you in." The young man said with a smile.
Xu Youyou nodded gently: "I did come to see the house."
The young man then noticed that there was a group of people following her. His eyes fell on the four bodyguards. He was so scared that his expression became serious.
"A beauty goes out with great fanfare. My name is Qian Run, what's your name, beautiful lady?" asked the white-haired young man.
"No need to tell me your surname is Xu." Xu Youyou said.
"Ms. Xu, you've made the right decision to buy my house. There are only one hundred old houses in Shanghai with clear property rights. They are all treasures and no one is willing to sell them easily. I am the only one who is selling houses." Qian Run started boasting.
Xu Youyou didn't expect that the house was actually for sale, and she wasn't impressed by Qian Run's rhetoric of raising the price. She said, "If the old house is really that good, why would you be willing to sell it?"
Qian Run laughed dryly and said, "Isn't my situation special? My whole family is planning to immigrate, and there's no one to take care of the house, so I'm in a hurry to sell it."
"Which country are you immigrating to?" Xu Youyou asked casually.
"Of course it's the beautiful country." Qian Run said.
"Has the immigration visa been approved?" Xu Youyou was curious.
Qian Run's eyes flickered, and he lowered his voice and said, "My ancestral home is in Minzhou, and people from our place are exempt from visas worldwide."
Xu Youyou thought he was quite humorous. If he wanted to smuggle, then he could do it. Why talk about global visa-free travel?
But Qian Run's words could not stand up to scrutiny. Xu Youyou said, "You are a Shanghai resident, how could your visa not be approved?"
It is very easy to obtain a visa with a Shanghai household registration in China. More importantly, Qian Run also has a house worth hundreds of millions of yuan.
Qian Run laughed dryly and said, "There's nothing I can do. I'm single, unmarried, and unemployed. I'm the group that the embassy is least willing to approve visas for."
Xu Youyou felt that he was not telling the truth, but the system's target for picking up bargains was this house. Even if Qian Run had many problems, she would definitely get the house.
As they were talking, the group had already walked into the villa. Xu Youyou looked at the moldy wallpaper around it and frowned slightly.
Xu Fang hurriedly took a mask and handed it to Xu Youyou.
After Xu Youyou put on the mask, she finally felt that the musty smell was isolated.
“How old is this house?”
Qian Run immediately said, "If you count carefully, it's been around for quite a while, at least 150 years. It was originally called 'Song Mansion', and the owner was a collateral descendant of the Song family, one of the four great families in the Republic of China, and his ancestors were very wealthy."
Xu Youyou's eyes then fell on the dirty European-style sofa: "The decoration in the house is too outdated."
Qian Run immediately said, "Miss Xu, the decoration is outdated. This is just right for you. You can knock down the decoration and renovate it completely according to your wishes."
Xu Youyou did not comment. Accompanied by this man, she walked up and down the stairs and went all the way to the basement.
I didn’t know what this basement was used for in the past, but now it is full of miscellaneous items.
"If you find these things an eyesore, I'll have them all taken away." Qian Run promised solemnly.
Xu Youyou's gaze fell on the wooden floor of the basement.
"Did you lay this floor?" Xu Youyou asked.
Qian Run immediately said, "How is this possible? But it's unclear whether it was the previous owner or the previous owner. This house has passed through too many people, so it's hard to tell. But you can see that the floor is made of solid wood and good materials, so it hasn't deteriorated much over the years."
Xu Youyou nodded slightly. After walking around for so long, she had seen enough.
There was a strong smell in the house, so they moved into the small pavilion in the yard and sat down.
Qian Run was busy preparing to boil water for tea, but Xu Youyou stopped him.
"Name your price."
Qian Run's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "This house has three floors above ground and one floor underground, with a usable area of 500 square meters. Miss Xu should know better than me what the housing prices are in Shanghai now. I won't play tricks on you with this house. The price is 120 million yuan."
Before Xu Youyou agreed, a voice suddenly appeared at the side.
"Little girl, you dare to buy a house with problems?"
When Qian Run saw this man, his face immediately turned ugly: "Liu Dazhi, what nonsense are you talking about? If you make trouble again, we're all done."
The man was wearing a black Ming Dynasty Hanfu and a crown on his head, looking like a Jinyiwei. Behind him were two young men in black Tang suits, who looked like thugs.
Xu Youyou has seen many girls wearing Hanfu, but this is the first time she has met a man wearing Hanfu in real life.
This Hanfu enthusiast has a huge black mole on the left side of his forehead, which is as big as a broad bean. He also has a pair of diagonal eyes, and he doesn't look very smart.
"Qian Run, you owe Lord Hong so much money. He specifically asked you to use this house as compensation. How dare you exchange someone else's house for money?" Liu Dazhi asked coldly.
Qian Run said impatiently: "I will naturally pay you back after I sell it. You all wear a set of Hanfu, and you really treat him as your master?"
Liu Dazhi said: "Red Dragon King said that he wants the house."
Qian Run rolled his eyes and said, "If he wants it, I have to give it to him? I only owe him 30 million, and he wants my house which is worth over 100 million. Why doesn't he just go and rob it?"
"Do you think the debt to the Red Dragon King is so easy to pay off?" Liu Dazi threatened.
As he spoke, he walked over quickly and grabbed Qian Run by the collar.
"What are you doing? Do you want to hit people in broad daylight?" Qian Run asked.
Xu Youyou gave a look, and four bodyguards immediately stepped forward and took some effort to separate the two.
Liu Dazhi didn't hesitate, turned to look at Xu Youyou, and said, "Little girl, this house has an owner, you can decide for yourself."
After saying that, he walked away.
Without outsiders around, Xu Youyou said directly: "Since there is a dispute over this house, I will consider it again."
Qian Run was in a hurry to run away, and he immediately became anxious when he heard this: "No, Miss Xu, the property certificate of this house is mine. If you don't believe me, I'll show you the property certificate."
He almost crawled up to the third floor and took out the house deed hidden in the safe.
"Ms. Xu, you see, there is only my name on it, and there is no bank mortgage stamp. Don't worry, the debt dispute between me and others will not affect our transaction." Qian Run said.
Xu Youyou looked critical: "There is no bank mortgage, but who knows if there is any private mortgage? You just ran away from home and left the mess to me."
