Chapter 202: Pulling and Oath
When Cheng Chunhua heard the money of 250,000 yuan, she was already extremely tempted. After all, if her family had not been reluctant to pay the bride price, her two sons would have been married long ago, and they would not have to go to the orphanage and make a scene to force a marriage.
It's not just her and her sister-in-law who are short of money.
Wang Dayong's cousin also jumped out and said, "If you really want to say that a house is good, you have to say that my old house is good. There are two cherry trees planted in the yard. The fruits are very sweet. If you rent my old house, you only need to pay 4,950 yuan a year."
"Rent mine, rent mine. My house only costs 4,900. That old house is right on the road, so it's very convenient to get around!"
A group of people were talking at once, and Xu Youyou didn't say much. They quickly reduced the price to four thousand yuan.
The village is about eight kilometers away from the city. There are no factories or entertainment facilities around it. There are also a few families in the village who rent out single rooms.
However, due to the commuting distance from the city, few people are willing to rent a house, and the market conditions are particularly sluggish. The rent for an ordinary single room is about one thousand yuan a year.
Instead of having a cheap tenant living in their homes, many villagers prefer to convert empty rooms into guest rooms and develop farm stay businesses.
Of course, although Chengjia Village has beautiful scenery, it does not have any landmark buildings, so the farm stay business is quite bleak.
Although Xu Youyou rented an entire yard, it was an abandoned old house and required a lot of effort to renovate it before it could be habitable.
Even a simple renovation would cost an estimated 100,000 yuan, which is why a group of people were stunned when they heard the price of 5,000 yuan a year, and some even rushed to bargain for the price.
Cheng Chunhua was so anxious that she jumped up and down, regretting her decision to ask for help: "Four thousand! My house is the cheapest! Only four thousand! You chose my house in the first place, you can't regret it!"
Cheng Chunhua's face was full of pain. This bargaining resulted in a direct reduction of 50,000 yuan.
But there was no way. The old house in the countryside was not valuable, and now someone had finally taken it over. She must have been crazy to stop it.
Xu Youyou glanced at her and didn't torture her too harshly. She said casually, "I do like your house better."
When the others heard this, they immediately sighed.
Cheng Chunhua's eyes lit up, and she wondered if Xu Youyou was interested in her precious son instead of her house. But when she saw Lu Jingyao standing beside her, she swallowed the shameless words "My son is not bad either".
"Ms. Xu, we can sign the rental contract now and get the deal done before the New Year so that everyone can have a good year!" Cheng Chunhua was very anxious.
Xu Youyou glanced at her and said, "It turns out you know how to talk nicely."
Cheng Chunhua was also a flexible person. Thinking of how she had called her a "stinky girl" before, she immediately said, "Miss Xu, I am old and confused. Please don't take it to heart if I have offended you in the past."
Xu Youyou didn't insist on this point anymore, nodded gently, and said, "Since you have made up your mind, I'll be frank. I don't trust people like you. I'm afraid that after I clean up the house, you will take it back immediately, so the lease must be for at least fifty years."
Cheng Chunhua understood her concerns, but she had a new greed and said, "It's OK to rent it for 50 years. We'll be the same as other landlords. The rent will increase every year, and we'll pay it once a year!"
Xu Youyou couldn't help but laugh: "The rent goes up every year? If you hadn't told me, I would have thought this was in the capital and Shanghai."
Cheng Chunhua smiled awkwardly when she heard this.
Xu Youyou restrained her smile and said, "If you don't really want to rent this house, don't waste your time here."
As soon as these words were spoken, the relatives who had originally stopped making any moves suddenly became active again.
"Ms. Xu, this woman is very stupid. You can take a look at my old house!"
"That's right, Miss Xu. If I rent a house to you, I won't go through so many twists and turns."
Cheng Chunhua was poached by a group of relatives she had invited over one after another. She was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood. Her husband and children looked at her with blame. She could only join the internal competition for the second time and said, "Ms. Xu, I was confused. Four thousand a year is four thousand. I will never say anything nonsense about raising the rent every year again. Just treat what I just said as fart."
Xu Youyou sneered and said, "I suddenly feel that what your relatives said makes sense. If someone as difficult as you really rents your yard, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles in the future."
Cheng Chunhua was filled with regret. She had originally called her relatives over to help, but who would have thought that after playing with her large numbers for so long, she would end up shooting herself in the foot.
"Miss Xu, I swear to God, I will fully cooperate with you after I rent the yard. If you make trouble behind my back, you will treat me like a pig or a dog." Cheng Chunhua thought she had made a very powerful oath.
Xu Youyou was not moved at all when she heard this, and said, "Being a pig or a dog is nothing. You should say that if your whole family has bad intentions, the whole family will not have a good death."
Cheng Chunhua took a deep breath when she heard this: "Why are you so venomous?"
But before Xu Youyou could refute, Cheng Chunhua's sister-in-law spoke up: "Miss Xu, she doesn't dare to swear. She really has bad intentions. You should rent my house."
Cheng Chunhua, who originally didn't want to swear, said hurriedly: "I swear, I swear!"
After Xu Youyou listened to her oath patiently, she pretended to be generous and said, "Since you are so sincere, I can't not show some appreciation. I know your family likes money, and I won't let you suffer too much. The rent will still be the same as it was originally set, 5,000 yuan a year, to be paid off in 50 years."
When Cheng Chunhua saw that the situation had turned around and she could get another 250,000 yuan, her eyes lit up surprisingly.
"Ms. Xu is a generous person. It is a blessing for our Xiaohu to have a classmate like you." Cheng Chunhua said with a smile.
Xu Youyou felt emotional. Even someone like Cheng Chunhua, when faced with real money, knew to change her bad habits and say a few nice words.
Xu Fang was now very skilled in her work and drew up a standard rental contract on the spot, but before she handed it to Xu Youyou, Assistant Liu took it and took a look at it, then said in a low voice:
"Although Cheng Chunhua swore a poisonous oath, we should just listen to the words of people like her."
Xu Fang turned her head and glanced at him in confusion.
Assistant Liu glanced at his CEO, and his chest straightened up. As Lu Jingyao's love security guard, he had to be very alert to Xu Youyou's affairs. At this moment, he could not care about interfering in other people's affairs, and continued, "Although I don't know why your boss rented this old house, a smart person like her will definitely find this house very useful. For Wang Dayong and Cheng Chunhua, the penalty for breach of contract will be increased at least tenfold."
