Shen Zhuyu didn't understand Chu Yu's theory. Why would a woman like her need to buy a house? Wouldn't it be enough to just find a man with a house in the future? Employees are provided with housing by the government, and self-employed individuals rent houses for a maximum of ten yuan a month. She must be crazy to spend thousands of yuan to buy a house.
That's such a bad deal!
Many people nowadays share Shen Zhuyu's views. Chu Yu doesn't care about others, but Shen Zhuyu is her partner, and Shen Zhuyu's financial situation is related to her interests, so Chu Yu still needs to give her some pointers.
“The house is your fixed asset. If we don’t make money in the future, you can rent out a few houses and earn money every month without doing anything. Isn’t that better than buying a car to save face? Our country has a large population, and sooner or later houses will be sold publicly like in Hong Kong. A house in Hong Kong sells for hundreds of thousands of yuan. If you wait for house prices to rise before buying, you’ll lose out. You might as well buy a few shops while you have money.”
After Mandarin became a hit, the prices of storefronts on this street collectively increased. Now, it costs six or seven thousand to buy a house like this, and renting it for a year costs several hundred.
Shen Zhuyu did the math in her head.
She can't use all her money to buy houses, but buying five is enough. If she buys five shops, she can earn two or three thousand yuan a year without eating or drinking. A rural family doesn't spend more than a hundred yuan a year, so she can earn two or three thousand yuan in rent every year. She can do nothing and just retire comfortably.
After Chu Yu said that, Shen Zhuyu really felt that buying a house was a good choice.
“But house prices here have gone up. I heard that someone wanted to buy a house here a few days ago, and the landlord next door asked for 6,500, and he still doesn’t want to sell! He dares to ask for such a high price just because our store is so popular. When people from the countryside come to Deyang to buy things, even if they don’t come in to buy anything, they still have to walk around the store a couple of times to see how luxurious our store’s decoration really is!”
As the shop becomes popular, rents and property prices rise accordingly. Chu Yu can't negotiate with a difficult landlord, which is where the advantage of a real estate agent comes in.
Chu Yu found Ge Lanzhi, and Ge Lanzhi immediately agreed when she heard that Shen Zhuyu wanted to buy a house.
“No problem, I know that area well, I can find you any kind of house you need.”
"Sister, Shen Zhuyu said that if you can help her negotiate the price down to her ideal level, she will give you a 300 yuan commission."
Ge Lanzhi refused Chu Yu's bribes because she valued Chu Yu's potential. She wouldn't fawn over Chu Yu until she succeeded; she couldn't wait until the girl soared to great heights before trying to get close to her.
That's not how you should behave.
She would help them with small favors within her ability to keep the two families closer. Only when she needed Chu Yu's help for something big would Chu Yu lend them a hand.
Ge Lanzhi hadn't intended to charge Chu Yu a handling fee, but since Shen Zhuyu wasn't close to her, and Shen Zhuyu offered to pay, Ge Lanzhi wouldn't refuse.
Ge Lanzhi smiled broadly, "Shen Zhuyu is too kind. With our relationship, how could I possibly accept her money? Here's what I'll do: I'll go and find out what good houses are for sale in the city, not just those near your clothing store, but also other places. I'll keep an eye out for any good houses for you two."
She knew Chu Yu had made a lot of money, so buying a house was nothing to him.
Buying 100 sets would be enough!
When talking to wealthy people, Ge Lanzhi doesn't act cautiously.
Ge Lanzhi supports Chu Yu's decision to buy a house, whether for personal use or investment.
If that's the case, why focus on houses near Mandarin?
There are plenty of good houses in Deyang, and she has found them all for Chu Yu, letting the two girls take their time to choose carefully. Once they've chosen and are happy with their purchases, she will negotiate the price down.
In this way, even if Shen Zhuyu insisted on giving money, Ge Lanzhi would not feel guilty.
Chu Yu liked talking to Ge Lanzhi. She only told Ge Lanzhi that Shen Zhuyu wanted to buy a house near Mandarin, and Ge Lanzhi wanted to find all the good houses in Deyang and even told them to keep an eye out for them.
These words were comforting, and the matter was handled in a way that pleased Chu Yu.
Ge Lanzhi has a powerful information network with strong integration capabilities and can even penetrate into the masses. She can turn Deyang upside down by helping her colleagues change houses for free, let alone helping them with other things.
The next morning, Ge Lanzhi came to find them, saying that the elderly couple across the street wanted to sell their house.
"His only son works in the police force. During an arrest operation, he hit his head and became a vegetable."
