Fan Hua dialed the number and heard a man's voice. Fan Hua politely said, "Hello, I want to talk to Comrade Wu Chunhua from the factory."
"Okay, please wait a moment. I'll go get Comrade Wu Chunhua for you."
After a short wait, a middle-aged woman's voice was heard.
"Hello, who are you?" the other party asked.
"Hello, Comrade Wu Chunhua. I would like to inquire about your house near Yangcheng University." Fan Hua replied politely.
When the other party heard that Fan Hua wanted to inquire about the house, his voice instantly became more friendly.
"Do you want to buy my house?" Wu Chunhua asked immediately.
"Yes, how much do you want to sell it for?" Fan Hua asked directly.
After a moment of silence, the other party asked tentatively, "Have you heard about my house?"
"Are you talking about what happened to Old Madam Ji? I've heard about it. I hope you can accept my condolences!"
The other party's voice immediately choked with sobs, "Thank you! It's all my fault that I didn't go home often enough, so my mother died alone! I don't have many relatives in Yangcheng anymore, and I don't plan to go back to Yangcheng after selling the house. I want to sell the house for 2,000 yuan. Do you think you can accept it?"
Fan Hua was extremely surprised and asked again uncertainly, "What did you say?"
She really couldn't believe that the house could be sold so cheaply. It was in such a good location and it was on the first floor so it could be used directly as a store. Fan Hua originally estimated that it could be sold for three or four thousand.
Wu Chunhua was stunned for a moment, thinking that Fan Hua thought it was too expensive, so she quickly said, "One thousand six hundred, no less! If my mother hadn't passed away in this house several days before it was discovered, others would have thought it was unlucky and would not have wanted to buy it. It should be worth at least four thousand!"
Now it was Fan Hua's turn to be stunned. She didn't expect that the other party would lower the price by 400 yuan just after she asked casually. It was such a surprise!
So Fan Hua immediately said, "Okay, 1,600 is fine, but I want to buy it as soon as possible. Can you come to Yangcheng tomorrow? Let's sign an agreement and go through the necessary formalities. I'll give you the money right after that!"
Wu Chunhua thought Fan Hua would continue to lower the price. Her bottom line was fifteen hundred. She didn't expect Fan Hua to agree so readily. She was also very happy. After all, if it were a few years ago, the house would most likely be taken back by the textile factory and would never belong to her. She was already very satisfied that it could be sold for sixteen hundred. It felt like she had gotten it for free!
So Wu Chunhua immediately said, "Okay, I'll ask for leave from the factory tomorrow and go to Yangcheng. Can we meet at the door of this house around 10 o'clock?"
"Okay! That's a deal then! See you there!"
After hanging up the phone, Fan Hua took another look at the house and was in a good mood. It was only sixteen thousand yuan, and she bought a house in Yangcheng. It really felt like pie in the sky. She would ask more about it later. Maybe she could come across such a bargain in the future.
Fan Hua rode her bike to the Wusi Road family building in a good mood. Fan Youcheng was fiddling with his camera to find various angles, but he was reluctant to press the shutter.
Seeing this, Fan Hua smiled and said, "Brother, are you bored?"
Fan Youcheng nodded, "Sister, you're here! I really don't know what to do, and I don't know any friends here. I want to go out for a walk but I'm worried that I'll get lost and can't find my way back. Guangzhou is too big, so I'd better stay here!"
Fan Hua never thought that Fan Youcheng would be afraid of getting lost. She was inconsiderate and treated Fan Youcheng as a young man living in the information age forty years later.
In this era, the farthest place many young people in the village have ever been to is the county town. Suddenly they come to such a bustling big city without a mobile phone navigation. They are unfamiliar with the place and are scared to go anywhere!
"Come on, brother, I'll take you around, and I'll tell you a good news, I've already found a place for you to open a photo studio!"
"Really? You found it so quickly? Little sister, you are amazing!" Fan Youcheng was so excited that he couldn't express it in words.
"But brother, we have to be clear about our accounts. I must tell you clearly in advance that I will buy the house and rent it to you for a long time. When you make money, you have to pay me the rent every month!"
"In addition, I will lend you the funds needed for decoration and initial investment in the business, and you have to pay me back after you make money! After all, every penny I earn is hard-earned, and I still have Yuanyuan and Xiaoxiao to support. Even though we are brother and sister, these accounts must be settled clearly!"
Fan Hua looked at the camera in Fan Youcheng's hand and said with a smile, "But this camera is a business gift I gave to my brother. You don't have to return it, hehehe..."
After hearing what Fan Hua said, Fan Youcheng was relieved. "Little sister, this is what I should do. Even if you don't say it, I will definitely pay you back in the future!"
"I already feel ashamed enough that I have to let you, as a younger sister, take care of my brother all the time. You are really the best to me! I must have accumulated so much luck in my eight lifetimes to have a good sister like you!"
"In fact, I have always felt guilty for not being able to help you. I didn't even know that you had suffered so much injustice before. Now when I think about it, I feel that I am useless and unworthy of being a brother!"
Fan Hua walked over and patted Fan Youcheng on the shoulder with a smile, "Hahaha, brother, you are very useful. I want to use you now. Starting tomorrow, you can go to my place and help me build a toilet and a washroom! I'll keep this job for you!"
Fan Youcheng didn't expect that Fan Hua would just take advantage of the situation and arrange a job for him. However, his sister's attitude of treating public and private matters as private really made him feel comfortable. She didn't treat him as an outsider and gave him respect.
他做了这么多年混子，虽然没少打架惹事，但是心里还是有那么杆秤的，该是他的他要，谁敢跟他抢他就揍谁，但是不是他的，他也不屑去要！所以当初才会那么抵触大哥用小妹的嫁妆娶媳妇儿。
"Sister, don't wait until tomorrow, let's go today. It's just noon and we can still work for half a day. It's a good opportunity for me to get familiar with the way to your place. The last time I took a car with my brother-in-law, I arrived before I could even remember the way clearly." Fan Youcheng said immediately.
Fan Hua looked at the watch and it was almost half past eleven, so she said, "Okay, I'll take you downstairs to have some food and then we'll go back to the military compound. By the way, brother, do you still not know how to ride a bike?"
Fan Youcheng scratched his head awkwardly, "There are only a few families in our village who can afford to buy a bicycle. Where can I learn to ride one?"
"That won't do. You should learn to ride a bike this afternoon, otherwise it will be too inconvenient for you to go out in the future! I have to ride the bike to take you with me. Do you have the nerve to let your sister ride the bike to take you with you?" Fan Hua asked with a snort.
"Hehehe, sister, to be honest, I feel pretty good about you riding your bike with me..."
Fan Hua was so angry that she was about to raise her hand to hit him, but Fan Youcheng immediately raised his hands in surrender, "Sister, I was wrong just now, I will definitely learn from it! Please forgive me!"
Fan Hua burst into laughter. At this moment, she really regarded Fan Youcheng as her own brother, a relative with whom she could play and joke around and who would not break up no matter how much she was bullied.
