Chapter 170
I have to say that outsiders just don’t have the advantage over locals in some things.
Auntie Ma has lived in the city center for decades, and she knows many people around her. She sells tea eggs at the night market, so she knows even more people.
So when she was free during the day, Auntie Ma went to ask around, and then she found out.
Qin Xiang took Qin Xiang to take a look, and Qin Xiang had to say that Auntie Ma had a sharp eye.
A large front house of nearly 50 square meters, not far from the night market, although there is no big square next to it, but there are many residential buildings and family buildings, even people who come to the night market can see that place.
In short, the location is very good, and there is no shortage of customers.
Auntie Ma said, "Of course, there are some bad things. The owner refused to rent it. He needed money urgently and wanted to sell it. And the price is not cheap. I am not sure whether you want to rent or buy it. I think this location is good, so I will take you here to have a look. If it is not suitable, we can go to other places. Auntie, I have another alternative place, but it is not as good as this one."
Qin Xiang heard that it was a good sale, so she wanted to buy it, and she really didn't want to rent it.
She asked, "How much?"
Auntie Ma said with wide eyes, "Five hundred yuan per square meter."
Qin Xiang took a breath. This price is indeed not cheap.
In other places, you can buy a room for five hundred yuan. When she bought the small courtyard in the capital, it was only more than two thousand yuan.
Even if this storefront is 50 square meters, the price is 500 yuan per square meter, which is 25,000 yuan. This is not a small amount, it can be said to be very expensive. Even in 1989, the price of houses in Hangzhou did not exceed 500 yuan. But that was the price three years later, and the situation has changed a lot.
However, for Qin Xiang, more than 20,000 yuan is acceptable, but it is impossible for her to give the seller whatever price he wants. She has to bargain.
Aunt Ma also knew that the house was expensive, and whispered to Qin Xiang, "I just think this place has a good location and the price is really expensive. The other party actually wants to do business, but unfortunately he has no capital. If he rents it out, he can only rent it out for a few dozen yuan a month, which can't solve his problem at all, so he wants to sell it. If you really want it, let's go and negotiate the price. If you can't lower the price, we can look at other stores. This is not a must."
Qin Xiang thought about it and felt that what Aunt Ma said made sense, so he said, "Why don't we take a look at them all and decide on the bargaining after that?"
"Okay. I'll take you to see them all today." Aunt Ma is very familiar with this area. She also went to take a look at another store nearby. The location is indeed not as good as the first one, and the area is smaller. Moreover, the landlord is not in a hurry to use the money, so he only rents it out and doesn't sell it.
Ma said, "I think this one is also OK. I can afford the one-month rent."
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "Auntie, I still like the first one. Take me to talk to the landlord. Please help lower the price. I will give you a big red envelope later."
As long as the price is lowered, Qin Xiang is willing to pay the money and buy a generous gift for Ma.
People who don't know the future trend of real estate think that it's enough to have a place to live, but Qin Xiang knows the future price too well, so no matter whether it is a provincial capital, the capital or Hangzhou, as long as she has money, she will buy it. Anyway, she won't suffer a loss in the future.
Ma was happy, "We are so close, no need to give red envelopes, just treat me to a good meal. Come on, I'll take you there."
The landlord was a young man in his thirties, wearing jeans and a floral shirt, and he didn't look like a good guy at first glance. But he seemed to know Ma and treated her well.
Aunt Ma said seriously, "Xiao Hu, I didn't agree with you selling this house. After all, it was left to you by your grandfather. But I also know that you young people are ambitious and want to explore. So I found a buyer for you."
Xiao Hu glanced at Qin Xiang, his eyes flashing with surprise, but when he saw Zhao Ping with a cold face behind him, Xiao Hu coughed and said, "Okay, didn't I tell you the price? This is it."
Aunt Ma pulled Xiao Hu aside and said, "I'm not saying you're wrong, but your price is too expensive. You can buy a tube-shaped building with this price. Your house is not small in size and is located in a "It's a good place, but how many people do you think can afford it? Besides, this house is old, and it will cost a lot of money if they buy it. Think about it yourself, the other party is sincere in buying it, you should give a fair price, and she is also your sister Yufeng's friend, give her some face."
Hearing this, Xiao Hu frowned, "Why do I feel that you are in cahoots with that girl?"
Aunt Ma was unhappy, frowned, and said fiercely, "It's up to you, if it's too high, people won't buy it, then I can't do anything."
Xiao Hu didn't say anything, he still knew that the price was too high, he was thinking of making more money to go to Guangzhou. But it's not good to have too little money, so he thought of quoting a higher price first, and then lowering it if it doesn't work.
After the two finished talking, Qin Xiang said, "Give me a real price. To be honest, we have also asked about the price of houses on this street. Your price is indeed too high." "
Then tell me how much it is." Xiao Hu was a little dissatisfied.
Qin Xiang said, "Three hundred and fifty per square meter. If it works, go and complete the formalities today and I will give you cash. If not, forget it. I will look for other houses."
In a few years, the price of houses in Hangzhou will indeed increase, but at present, there is no market for houses. There are many people who want to buy, but few can afford it.
It's not that no one has asked about the price of this front house before, but in the end they were scared off by the price.
When Xiao Hu saw that she directly mentioned the price of 150 per square meter, he was immediately annoyed, "Then you are not sincere in buying it and don't want to sell it."
Qin Xiang nodded, "Okay, forget it." She said to Aunt Ma, "Aunt Ma, please take me to find the owners of the two shops we saw earlier, I will talk to them..."
Seeing that they were really leaving, Xiao Hu became anxious again, "350 is definitely not enough, it has to be 450."
Qin Xiang said, "One price, 400 per square meter, I don't want a dollar more."
Xiao Hu was very depressed, but his good brother was indeed urging him in the south, and he couldn't wait any longer after finally waiting for someone who could afford it, "Okay, 400 is 400."
400 per square meter is almost 2 yuan, which is fine.
Xiao Hu glanced at the shop and said, "Do we go to handle the procedures now?"
Qin Xiang nodded, "Okay, we'll go get the money, you go get the documents, and we'll meet at the housing management office."
The two made an agreement, and Qin Xiang and Zhao Ping went to get the money. Aunt Ma looked distressed, "So just over two yuan was spent? I think we can negotiate the price a little more."
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "This price is fine. I've asked the owners of other shops, and they're all about the same price."
After all, commercial housing is different from shop fronts. Shop fronts are definitely more expensive.
Seeing that she insisted, Auntie Ma didn't say much, and only said, "If you need any help in the future, just come to me."
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "I definitely can't be polite to you."
The two parties separated, Qin Xiang and Zhao Ping went to the post office to get money, and then Auntie Ma took them to the Housing Management Office to handle the formalities. When they got there, Xiao Hu had already arrived.
After checking the information, paying the money and handling the formalities, Qin Xiang breathed a sigh of relief when the key fell into her hand.
Real estate +1.
When she bought a house for the first time in the provincial capital, she was extremely excited. Now, perhaps because she has more houses, although she is very happy, she doesn't feel that extremely excited anymore.
Now she is a rich woman after all, and she feels really good.
After getting the key, it was already noon, Qin Xiang said to Auntie Ma, "I am sorry for having you this time, I will treat you to a big meal at noon. I heard that Hangzhou Hotel is good, come on, I will treat you to a meal there."
Qin Xiang's generosity scared Auntie Ma, "Just find a place to eat more, there is no need to go to Hangzhou Hotel, the food there is like gold, it's almost like robbing, let's not go, let's eat something affordable."
Qin Xiang was happy, and Tan Xiu persuaded, "Auntie, you give our boss a chance to show his ability, and let us also benefit from it."
Go to the Hangzhou Hotel . The price of eating in the hotel is definitely not cheap, but Qin Xiang likes to enjoy life. Since the hotel is open, how can she be content not to try it? She did not persuade her, and directly pulled the old lady to stop the car on the roadside, "Let's go, let's go to Hangzhou Hotel."
When they arrived at Hangzhou Hotel, the old lady felt very distressed, "Why do you have to come here to eat? It's better
to go to my house and I will cook for you." Qin Xiang was happy, "Okay, we will go to your house later and let you cook for us."
When the food was served, Aunt Ma felt that her eyes were not enough to look at it.
There were so many dishes, and they were also exquisitely cooked and tasted good.
Ma ate happily and ate two big crabs. After eating, she said happily, "It's a good enjoyment to spend so much money."
Qin Xiang agreed, "So it's worth coming here."
But now is not the time for crabs to be on the market, so it's a bit regrettable.
After dinner, Ma felt that she had to do something to help others, so she said, "Come on, I'll take you to clean the house. The house hasn't been used for a long time, and it's probably not clean inside."
Several people went to the grocery store next door to buy tools such as brooms and mops, and also bought a new lock, and then went to open the door to clean.
As Ma said, the inside was not very clean, there were a lot of debris and thick dust.
Aunt Ma introduced, "This house is quite old. A few years ago, it was a state-owned dim sum store that specialized in selling dim sum. But Xiao Hu wanted to sell the house, and the government was unwilling to buy it, so they moved to another place and now it's been vacant."
She snorted and said, "If you hadn't bought it, this house might have remained vacant. Xiao Hu is anxious, otherwise he wouldn't have agreed to sell it to you for four hundred yuan per square meter."
Qin Xiang understood and took a look at the condition of the house. It seemed that it needed to be renovated. If the third brother came over, he might not be able to make it in time, so he could only find someone locally.
"Auntie, I want to redecorate it. Do you have anyone to recommend?"
Auntie Ma thought for a moment and clapped her hands, "Yes, my cousin from my mother's side has hired a construction team. I can ask them."
Qin Xiang nodded, "Okay, you ask them and ask about the price."
If it really works, it will be considered as repaying Auntie Ma. And I can find a reliable decoration team.
Auntie Ma agreed and was about to find someone. Qin Xiang held her back and said, "By the way, tell them that if this is well renovated, I will also use them for the store in Suzhou."
Auntie Ma's eyes lit up and said happily, "Just wait and see." Auntie
Ma left, and Qin Xiang and several employees were working hard in the storefront. Xiao Hu had already said that he didn't want the clutter in the house anymore, so Qin
Xiang was too lazy to clean it up. When she heard someone collecting junk outside, she simply called him over to help clean it up, and gave him a few dollars to let him take it all away. It took an hour to clean up the clutter. Qin Xiang and others mopped the floor, wiped the windows, and checked the house.
They were just waiting for Aunt Ma to reply.
In the evening, Aunt Ma came with a man in his forties, "This is my cousin, I can decorate the house if I ask him, but you have to tell him your requirements, otherwise I'm afraid it won't suit your taste."
Qin Xiang nodded, "That's easy, I'll let Tan Xiu contact him."
Tan Xiu was also in charge of the branch before, and Qin Xiang didn't want to take over now.
It was getting late, Qin Xiang suggested sending Aunt Ma back, and Aunt Ma did not refuse. On the way, Aunt Ma could not help but give a thumbs up, "I admire no one but you. It's amazing that you have this ability at your age."
Qin Xiang smiled, "There's nothing I can do about it."
Aunt Ma said, and then stopped, "Xiao Qin, are you unmarried?"
Qin Xiang nodded, "Yes, I'm not married, but I..."
Before she finished speaking, Aunt Ma said happily, "How about I introduce you to a guy who works in a government department and is a secretary to a big leader. He's young, only 25 years old 20, a college graduate, has a promising future, is handsome and good-looking. "
Qin Xiang said with a smile, "No, I have a boyfriend."
Aunt Ma stopped laughing, a little embarrassed, "That's good."
At this time Yao Yufeng came down from the upstairs, looked at them in surprise, and then said, "Did you go to see a house?"
Aunt Ma hurriedly changed the subject, "Yes, the procedures have been completed, and the next step is to open a store. If you are free, go and help."
Yao Yufeng was a little surprised. She didn't expect this girl to be so quick and efficient. She had just arrived in Hangzhou for a few days and she had already done this smoothly.
"Of course, if you have something to say, just tell me."
Qin Xiang nodded, "Then I certainly can't be polite." Turning back to Ma, she said, "Auntie, my employees have to live here. Can you see if there are any suitable houses around, either for rent or for sale? I have to prepare dormitories for them."
Ma quickly agreed, "Okay, I'll take care of it."
Yao Yufeng smiled and said, "Let's go, let's go around together?"
Qin Xiang knew that the other party had something to tell her, so she said goodbye to Ma and followed Yao Yufeng out of the compound. When
they were on the street outside, Yao Yufeng said, "You are a capable person."
Qin Xiang raised her eyebrows and thought to herself, here it comes.
