Chapter 125

"Brother Wang, why are you here? I was thinking of going to your village to find you later." Xiao Zhang looked at Wang Qinghe in surprise.

Wang Qinghe followed Xiao Zhang into the yard and saw a purple bruise at the corner of his eye, which looked like he had been beaten.

"Brother Wang, I have already inquired about the things you asked me to ask you. Houses are easy to find, but jobs... jobs are not easy to find. However, if you wait for ten days or half a month, as long as you are willing to spend money, there is nothing you can't get.

As for the house, my seventh aunt's house has a small courtyard, which is located in the west of our county, near the timber factory and the food factory. It is a small courtyard. I have seen the courtyard walls, which are very solid. As for the house, there is a main hall when you enter the house.

There are two rooms separated in the middle, one on the east and one on the west.

The yard is neither big nor small, and it is about 200 square meters with the front and back fenced in. Large vegetables cannot be grown there, but small vegetables can still be grown.

My seventh aunt's husband died early, leaving her with only one daughter.

Now my daughter has married and moved to the next county. She also found a partner there some time ago and is preparing to get married and live together.

She said she didn't want this house anymore.

She wanted to give part of the money from the sale to her daughter and part to support herself in her old age.

If you agree, we can go to the Housing Authority."

Xiao Zhang casually dabbed some red medicine on the corner of his eyes, and then began to talk carefully about the house with Wang Qinghe.

"When is it convenient for you to go and see him?" Wang Qinghe was still very moved by Xiao Zhang's description.

"It's okay now. I'll lock the door and we'll set off now." Xiao Zhang said and quickly threw the potions and other things into a wooden box.

Took Wang Qinghe out.

On the way, he enthusiastically introduced the things happening in the county.

Wang Qinghe listened and wrote down what was useful to himself and his wife.

"By the way, Brother Wang, you told me before... that you wanted to close down the black market business. Is there any plan for this?" Xiao Zhang was thinking about what his brother asked him to ask, so he asked it casually.

"No, it's just that a tall tree attracts the wind. Everyone is jealous of those who make money. It's not an open and aboveboard transaction, so it won't be good after a while.

Now you have reached the top. If you continue, not only will you offend people, but you may also get into more trouble than you will get in return."

Although Wang Qinghe did not do business on the black market, he would occasionally sell some tickets for his wife.

The black market is now busier than the supply and marketing cooperatives.

"Brother Wang, you are really awesome. Someone also said the same thing to my brother two days ago. After I told him your opinion, he was also thinking about doing something else. But now, what can we do?" Xiao Zhang was very worried.

Their stall was quite big, and his brother was hesitant at first after hearing about it.

But yesterday, he and his brother went out and were inexplicably put in a sack and beaten.

Don't compete with them for business.

It was difficult for them to report the case in their business. He was fine, as his injuries were all on his body. But his brother was in a terrible condition and could not go out for several days.

What is going on?

What to do?

Wang Qinghe was even more confused by his question.

"Of course, you can use your connections to find a factory to work in, what else can you do?" Wang Qinghe asked him back.

"Go to work? How much money can you make?" Xiao Zhang was not happy at all.

Wang Qinghe stopped talking.

The two of them arrived at the yard Xiao Zhang mentioned.

The yard is not big, but the wall is indeed very solid and looks almost two meters high.

The gates in this area are all iron gates.

There are smiley faces drawn on the door by children passing by.

Xiao Zhang went over and knocked on the door: "Seventh Aunt? Are you home? I brought someone over."

Not long after, an old lady who looked to be in her sixties opened the door.

The old lady's face had many wrinkles, but she looked energetic and cheerful when she smiled.

"Come inside and talk."

Wang Qinghe and Xiao Zhang followed him into the yard.

Before entering the yard, Wang Qinghe also looked at the nearby yards.

The other courtyards look similar to this one. This courtyard is nothing special, but it is better kept than the other courtyards.

These courtyards are next to each other, and each one is separated by only a wall.

"Brother Wang, this was originally a wealthy family's home, and these small courtyards were all enclosed by a wall. Later, the wall was demolished, and these houses were converted into small courtyards. I heard that there were hundreds of small courtyards.

Just tell me, how rich that person must be.

I heard from my family that the row of houses in one yard was converted into dozens of small yards.

The one we live in now is one of them.”

Xiao Zhang couldn't help but sigh as he spoke, he couldn't even dream of having a house that big.

Entering the yard, the few small vegetable plots on both sides were empty of vegetables.

Inside the house, as soon as you enter the door, there is a large room with a stove. On the east side is a dining table with a few stools.

There were several large boxes, on top of which some household items were placed.

The house is not big, but it is clean.

The room on the east side looked to be about 20 square meters in size, with a large kang and two boxes on the floor.

The west house is similar to the east house.

The old lady poured hot water for the two of them and said, "I usually cook by myself in this living room. If you buy this house, you can build a kitchen for cooking."

"Brother Wang, this is a small matter. I'll give you a ride later."

"If you like my house, let's decide on it as soon as possible so that I can leave." The old lady was a little anxious about this matter.

Xiao Zhang looked at Wang Qinghe. If Wang Qinghe didn't nod, he wouldn't dare to nod either.

Wang Qinghe took a look and thought it was quite good.

However, this matter still needs to be decided by Xiuxiu.

"I've looked at this house and I think it's all good. But in our house, my wife is the boss. Would it be convenient for me to bring my wife to see it again tomorrow?" Wang Qinghe asked the old lady.

The old lady was a little surprised.

Such an important matter is actually decided by the daughter-in-law?

"Seventh Aunt, what do you think?" Xiao Zhang was a little worried, because there were actually quite a few people who wanted to buy this house.

After all, houses are so crowded nowadays, especially since there are so many factories nearby.

Many factories were not even able to get housing.

There are very few houses like this that individuals can buy and live in.

If he wasn't related to him, he wouldn't be able to get close to him.

"Okay, I'll wait." The old lady agreed. The house would be sold to anyone, and she finally found someone who respected his daughter-in-law, so she was happy to wait for another day.

"Seventh Aunt, what's the price?" Xiao Zhang asked in a low voice.

"We'll wait until someone comes and takes a liking to it." The old lady had already set a price.

But it also depends on personal preference. If the person makes her feel comfortable, she would be willing to pay ten or twenty dollars less.
