"Sister, isn't this another person who wants to buy a house?"
Xu Li had been silent before, but when she saw the landlord's expression, she guessed something and wanted to remind Song Shishi.
"I guess so. Let's see what the situation is."
Song Shishi was not in a hurry. Everything could be discussed before the contract for the house was signed.
Besides, there are not many people who can come up with more than 20,000 yuan in cash at one time.
Even if there are, not many people are willing to use the money to buy a house.
"But this house is too expensive. How can we afford that much money?"
In Xu Li's eyes, this amount of money was almost an astronomical figure.
How many years would it take her to earn this much money?
...
...
"Talk about it first and then discuss it."
The opportunity is right in front of you, grab it first.
Song Shishi used to work as a translator, and after deducting expenses, she still had about 10,000 yuan in her hands.
That's nearly half.
She charges about three hundred yuan for translating an ordinary document.
If she wants to get 10,000 yuan, it is impossible for her to earn so much money in a short period of time even if she doesn't sleep.
Nowadays, even if you borrow money from someone, you can't borrow so much money.
She was mainly gambling, betting that she was the only one who could come up with so much money at the moment, and the homeowner had no choice but to choose her.
The gate opened and a man in his thirties stood outside.
The man's eyes swept around the yard, and when he saw Meng Xunzhou, he paused slightly and immediately looked away.
A smile spread across his face and he greeted the landlady familiarly.
"Sister Xu, I've been here several times, and you're finally here today."
"What's the matter?"
"After talking to you last time, I went back and discussed it with my family. So, I'll add another two thousand to my original offer. Is that okay with you?"
The man's eyes fell on the landlady, and seeing that she was about to get angry, he quickly spoke again.
"Don't worry, listen to me. I know your family is short of money right now. I will pay you 5,000 first, and the rest within a year. This is the biggest concession I have ever made."
As soon as the man finished speaking, the female landlord started cursing.
"Do you think I am a cabbage? You can just sell it cheaply?
I thought you came to me because you had figured it out, but it turns out you were deliberately trying to tease me, right?
I tell you, I will not sell this house to you even if it rots.”
The landlady was so angry that she said these words while gritting her teeth.
The man was also very angry about her words, and snorted coldly, "How shameless! I want to see who you can sell the house to."
The landlady glared at him and turned to look at Song Shishi.
"Girl, please add a little more. You are the person introduced by my eldest brother, and I trust you. As long as you can pay half of the money first and sign the contract, I will take you to handle the transfer."
Seeing that the female landlord was willing to give in, Song Shishi raised her index and middle fingers and said, "How about this number?"
The landlady turned back and glared at the man again, then replied firmly, "Sure."
She looked at Song Shishi again and made her request firmly.
"But I need the money today."
"Can."
Song Shishi agreed very readily.
After all, she got the upper hand.
This house will definitely appreciate in value in the future, so she can only make money and not lose money.
When the man heard this, he immediately quit and shouted, "This girl is so young, how could she possibly come up with so much money at once? Don't be so stupid as to not know you've been cheated. I advise you to sell the house to me, that would be the wisest thing to do."
"I put up with you for a long time last time. If it weren't for this house, do you think you could still step into my house? You're showing off in front of me just because you have a little money. What are you doing? This is my house. I can sell it to whoever I want. Why do you care if I get cheated?"
As she said this, the female tenant picked up a broom and started hitting the man until she forced him out of the yard.
"I've sold my house to someone else. Don't show up in front of me again, or I'll beat you up every time I see you."
The female tenant slammed the door shut. When she turned around, her expression returned to normal and she said calmly, "Let's go inside and sign the contract."
There was nothing special about the contract. It simply stated that Song Shishi had to pay a deposit of 10,000 yuan, payable in cash on the same day, and the remaining balance of the house should be paid within one year. If it was overdue, interest would be charged at 50 cents per day.
The landlord must complete the house transfer on the same day, otherwise he will be compensated twice the deposit.
The overdue interest and double compensation were additional terms added at Song Shishi's request.
After all, she had to pay so much money at once, and without the constraints of a contract, she felt uneasy.
Before signing the contract, she also took the trouble to look at the landlord's property title and household registration book, trying to be cautious.
The landlady was anxious to get the money and didn't care about her requests.
Song Shishi had not thought about buying the house directly today, so she did not bring any money.
So the female landlord locked the door and went back with Meng Xunzhou and the others to get the money and then go to handle the house transfer.
While the landlady was locking the door, Meng Xunzhou came up and asked in a low voice: "Is the money enough? If not..."
Before he could finish his words, Song Shishi nodded and said, "It's enough. I saved all the money I earned from my previous translation job. But thank you anyway, Xunzhou."
"There's no need to say thank you between you and me."
Seeing that the female landlord was catching up, Meng Xunzhou went to drive the car first.
In the car, Song Shishi curiously asked the female landlord, "Where are you going? Did something happen? You seem to be in a hurry."
"My husband was framed in the factory and couldn't stay there any longer. Someone asked him to work in another city with better salary than here. If he went there, I would have to follow him. Otherwise, our family would fall apart after a while."
Speaking of this, the landlady's eyes were full of sadness.
I think she was reluctant to leave her hometown, but to her, her husband and their home were more important.
"If he goes there, there will be factories to accept him. I want to do some small business there. I heard there are many stalls there, so I want to try it, but without the capital, everything is just wishful thinking."
"We don't know if we can come back after we leave, so we can only sell the house first and get some capital."
"If I make money in the future, I will come back and buy a house. If I don't have money, I won't come back."
The landlady seemed to have opened up and was expressing her emotions on her own.
Song Shishi, Xu Li, and Meng Xunzhou who was driving, no one interrupted her.
The female landlord didn't stop talking until Meng Xunzhou parked his car in front of the gate of Yard No. 1 of the military district compound.
Seeing Meng Xunzhou and Song Shishi walking into the compound, the female tenant stared at Xu Li beside her with wide eyes and asked, "They live here?"
Xu Li nodded.
The female tenant secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately she sold the house to this girl today.
For a kid from a military compound to be able to earn so much money at such a young age shows that he is very talented.
Being able to form a bond with such a person is also considered her accomplishment.
When Song Shishi got the money and got in the car again, she didn't plan to give the money to the landlady right away, but she was afraid that she would misunderstand, so she said frankly: "I'll give you the money when we go to transfer the ownership, and you need to write me a receipt."
This time the female tenant had no objection and nodded in agreement.
The kids in this military compound would definitely not lie to her.
It's just a matter of waiting a little longer.
The transfer went smoothly, and the female tenant received 10,000 yuan in cash as she wished, and she couldn't stop smiling.
Song Shishi got the property deed and looked at the name on it over and over again, feeling very excited.
She got her first house.
very nice!
Looking at the property deed, Xu Li made up her mind.
She also has to work hard and strive to buy her own house with her own ability as soon as possible like Song Shishi.
Although she doesn't know when this goal can be achieved, she firmly believes that she can do it.
When she got home, the first thing Song Shishi did was to show Zheng Peilan the still warm property deed.
