The first floor houses the living room, kitchen and guest rooms.
There are six rooms on each of the second and third floors. Perhaps for the purpose of distinguishing them, each room has a different and unique design.
There is also an attic at the top of the house, which is surrounded by windows on all sides. Standing in front of the window, you can overlook the entire courtyard.
Lan Guoer walked around the rooms and found that except for the lack of bedding and beds, they could almost move in with just their luggage!
But according to her standards, if this house is to be lived in, it would be better to renovate it and buy some daily necessities.
And since she had agreed to stay at Yu Lei's place, she was not in a hurry to move in!
However, Amin and others don’t have to stay in the guesthouse anymore. They can move in that night and take care of the yard at the same time!
"Second Aunt, didn't they say there was another house for sale? Where is it? Can we go see it now?"
Lan Guoer was quite satisfied with this house. Thinking that there was another one that could be found at a bargain price, she couldn't wait to go and see it.
"Isn't such a big yard enough for you to live in?" Yu Lei asked with eyes wide open!
She thought that after buying this set, her niece would not consider the other one.
Who would have thought that this little niece would be so ambitious? It looks like she's probably thinking of taking the other set as well!
"Second Aunt, don't forget, we have three children! This set is not enough to divide! I don't want to wait until they grow up and end up like Uncle Lin, who had to sell the house to share the money!"
Lan Guoer raised her eyebrows playfully.
"Then the best way is to take advantage of the current low housing prices and buy one for each of them! Then they can each live separately and no one will get in each other's way!"
Yu Lei: “…”
There was no point in continuing the conversation today! She was afraid that her little niece would lead her astray!
Is this house that costs 30,000 yuan cheap?
A normal family would have to spend their life to buy a set, so what did her little niece just say? She even wanted to buy a set for each of her three tiny kids? Just so they wouldn't get in each other's way in the future?
Haha~ It's true that comparison is the end of the world! If that's the case, then isn't she being too harsh on her two sons? She hasn't even considered buying a house for them?
However, she also knew her niece's ability to make money.
It's their own business how they spend the money they earn.
"That's fine! But it's getting dark today, so I'll take you to see another one tomorrow. That yard is about the same size as this one, but the property rights are the same..."
Yu Lei frowned and said, "I'm afraid it will be a bit troublesome."
"ah?"
When Lan Guoer heard that there was a problem with the property rights, her heart sank instantly!
The structure and decoration of the house, even if it needs to be demolished and rebuilt, as long as there is land, it is not a big deal for her!
But once real estate involves property rights issues, it becomes really troublesome!
And she has always hated trouble!
"Besides this one, are there any other houses for sale?" Lan Guoer frowned, a little disappointed.
Yu Lei shook her head and explained,
"Old houses like these are mostly owned by the government. After the liquidation over the past two years, not many have been returned to individuals! Most of them are ancestral homes or something like that, so even fewer are willing to sell them!"
Lan Guoer nodded slightly. She was naturally aware of all this. Scarcity makes things valuable!
Otherwise, old villas in later generations would not be so popular!
"So what's the problem with that property right?"
Lan Guoer suddenly thought of something and asked,
"Since it was just returned from above, there should be a certificate of ownership, right?"
By this time, Lan Guoer had already bought quite a few properties. She knew very well that the name of the house owner was clearly written on the property ownership certificate.
From a legal perspective, whoever’s name is written on the property certificate is the owner of the house and has the right to dispose of and sell it.
"I also heard this from the side!" Yu Lei said,
“I heard that the original owner of that house went abroad with his family before the founding of the People’s Republic of China.
At that time, the house was said to have been given as a gift to a servant in the family, who is the current owner of the house, Zhongbo.
Uncle Zhong's family originally lived well in this house, but after the movement started, some people began to accuse them and wrote letters of denunciation saying that Uncle Zhong lived in a capitalist's house and was a lackey assimilated by the capitalists!
When Uncle Zhong heard the news, he dared not live in the house any longer! He moved out with his wife and children that very night.
Lan Guoer blinked, seeming to understand but not quite.
"So, the original owner gifted the house to Uncle Zhong, and Uncle Zhong is the subsequent owner! There's no problem returning the house to him. How could this involve a property rights dispute?"
"The key is that Uncle Zhong lost the gift certificate!"
Yu Lei explained,
"In a situation like this, where the original owner has emigrated and has not been heard from since, it is only natural for the authorities to declare the house ownerless and take it over to the public.
But Uncle Zhong is lucky!
His eldest granddaughter happened to marry into the Wang family, and the head of the Wang family is the director of the revolutionary committee of this area. With this relationship, Uncle Zhong finally got his house back! "
"Since there are the return documents above, the ownership of this house is not unclear!" Lan Guoer was even more confused!
"The problem is that after we get this house!" Yu Lei continued to explain,
"This Uncle Zhong has three sons and one daughter, and the daughter-in-law of the Wang family is from the old family.
I heard that before the Wang family offered help, they asked Zhongbo to write a letter of commitment, promising that after the house was acquired, they would give one floor to his eldest granddaughter to live in.
Uncle Zhong agreed very well!
Who would have thought that once the house was returned, the sons and daughters would start arguing! They said that the eldest granddaughter and the eldest son were one family, and if the eldest granddaughter got a share of the eldest son's family, then the eldest son's family couldn't be divided anymore!
The eldest brother's family still has three underage sons to support, so how could they agree? And now, after so much arguing, it's even gotten to the point where they're selling their house."
After hearing this, Lan Guoer seemed to understand a little, but still felt that something was not right. After thinking for a while, she asked,
"Since the house is about to be sold, why is there still a dispute over property rights?"
"Mr. Zhong wants to sell it, but the Wang family doesn't agree!
"I have the letter of commitment written by Uncle Zhong in my hand! It clearly states in black and white that I will give them a floor!"
Speaking of this, Yu Lei shook her head and said,
“Although there is no problem with this house to the outside world and the owner can get the title certificate, the trouble lies with the Wang family!
In short, as long as the Wang family doesn't give in, no local would dare to take over the house!
They say the people shouldn't fight the government! Who knows if the Wang family will do something behind the scenes after buying this house?
I originally thought that the price of this house was cheap, and I mentioned it to you because I thought you would choose between the two.
Who would have thought that you, a girl, would be so greedy that you would want both!"
Yu Lei said this and knocked on Lan Guoer's forehead without any temper.
