An Hua let out a sigh.
"This price is already very good. After all, you know that the transaction between us is not legally protected. It all depends on your own conscience. What if you can't make it abroad one day and want to come back to get the house? It won't take a minute to break the contract. What can I, a commoner, do to you?"
"How could I fail? Can you speak?" Ms. Chen was very unhappy and felt that An Hua looked down on her.
"I just said it's possible." An Hua smiled.
Ms. Chen thought An Hua was annoying and didn't want to sell the house to her, but she had no other choice.
She had asked countless people and gone through countless twists and turns to find An Hua.
Ms. Chen said reluctantly, "Five thousand yuan, no less. If it were before the liberation, this house would be worth three large yellow croakers."
"You also said it was before liberation, but we are now after liberation." An Hua shook her head. "I believe you can also see that my financial conditions are average. I bought this house purely to honor my grandparents. I have a house allocated by my company, but to be honest, it is too expensive. I can't afford it, so I have to give up buying it."
"You..." An Hua refused to give in, which made Ms. Chen feel helpless.
Finally, she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay!"
An Hua may not buy, but she cannot not sell! She was eager to run into the embrace of civilization.
Fifteen hundred is fifteen hundred. It’s better than letting the house rot here.
There was one thing Ms. Chen didn't say out loud: if there was another house search someday, she would still have received fifteen hundred yuan, but An Hua would be left with nothing.
By this calculation, she actually made a profit!
An Hua did not offer a whole number, which meant she left room for further negotiation. Unexpectedly, after only one round of negotiations, Ms. Chen agreed. It was a pleasant surprise.
Signing the contract, registering, and a series of other things were done within one day.
Just like that, I got another house....Five thousand yuan, which is really a bargain.
An Hua was very happy for the next few days.
When Xiao Zheng came back, he saw that she was in high spirits and asked with a smile, "What good news happened? I have some good news to tell you, too."
Afterwards, Xiao Zheng was told about the courtyard house in Beijing, but he didn't say how much it cost. Xiao Zheng didn't ask much, thinking that buying the courtyard house was just to help An Bohuai's friends and to raise money for their travel expenses abroad.
An Hua also planned to use this excuse for the house incident, "…My dad's friend is going abroad, and we can't just stand by and watch."
Xiao Zheng scratched his head, "Are so many of my father-in-law's friends going abroad?"
An Hua nodded sincerely, "Yes."
Xiao Zheng was a little worried, "Wife, why did our family buy so many houses? Wouldn't that make us landlords?"
"How can we be landlords? Do we have land? We only have a house! The land belongs to the collective, and only the house on the land is ours! What we buy is a pile of building materials! Who said we can't buy building materials?"
Although there is no property rights law at present, the ownership of land is still very clear. The property rights of urban land belong to the collective or the state.
Xiao Zheng: "...what you said makes a lot of sense."
An Hua coughed lightly and changed the subject, "You just said you had good news to tell me, what good news?"
"Ah, that's right." Xiao Zheng said, "Commander He is going to be transferred to another military region."
"Transferred to another military region? So sudden?"
"No, this is a common practice. How can one person always work in one military region?"
"So what's the good news?"
"Commander He promoted me to deputy commander before."
