Chapter 138 Buying a House
Doudou stared with big eyes, looking around. He still didn’t like to talk. He could say a few words at home, but he didn’t say a word outside. Jiang Hanyan let him do what he wanted. The psychological shadow of a child cannot be eliminated in a short time, so he should take his time.
"Come on, let's go get something to eat."
Jiang Hanyan took Doudou to find a clean little restaurant near the train station and ordered two bowls of shepherd's purse wontons, which were large wontons unique to Shanghai. The soup was fresh and the wontons were delicious too. Doudou even finished the soup.
After paying the money, Jiang Hanyan took a taxi to the medical school. She had to get a house near the medical school and settle down first.
The taxi driver was very talkative. When he heard that Jiang Hanyan wanted to buy a house, he gave her a business card and said, "Don't worry, my wife's uncle is a conscientious real estate agent, and a gold medal real estate agent. You can rest assured if you find him."
"Thank you."
Jiang Hanyan took the business card and planned to find Zhong Liang's agent to inquire about it. It was 1997 now, there were not so many scammers, and people's hearts were still quite simple.
When they arrived at the medical school, the driver was very enthusiastic. He called my wife's uncle in the phone booth and said that someone wanted to rent or buy a house, and asked him to come over quickly, which made Jiang Hanyan feel embarrassed.
"My wife's uncle will be here soon. I'll wait here with you." The driver stopped doing his business and waited with Jiang Hanyan.
After Zhong Liang arrived, Jiang Hanyan finally understood why the driver was so enthusiastic. What kind of gold medal agent was he? He was just a young man who had just started out and stuttered when he spoke.
The driver probably had to give work to my brother-in-law because he failed to complete the order. It was hard for him.
"Aliang, you must serve Miss Jiang well and make sure to introduce a good house to her. And charge less for the handling fee." The driver instructed his brother-in-law that the business had not been open for three months and if he didn't make a single sale, he would be out of money.
"I know, thank you, brother-in-law."
Zhong Liang nodded repeatedly, his palms sweating with nervousness, and his breathing became rapid. He kept repeating to himself that he must work hard, not stutter anymore, and not let his brother-in-law down.
After the driver left, Zhong Liang came over with a red face and said shyly: "My name is Zhong Liang, you... do you want to rent or buy a house?"
"If there is a good one, buy it. If there is nothing good, rent it. Are there any suitable houses nearby?" Jiang Hanyan asked sincerely, and did not look down on Zhong Liang just because he was a newcomer.
A gold medal agent also started out as a newcomer. Although Zhong Liang is not proficient in the business, this kind of newcomer has one advantage: he has a kind heart and generally tells the truth about the properties he provides.
Zhong Liang asked her about her needs for the house, which was quite rigorous.
"It doesn't have to be too big. I have hundreds of thousands of dollars in my hand. It would be better if it is well-decorated and I can move in with just a suitcase." Jiang Hanyan said.
If you buy a house now, no matter what kind of house it is, you will make a profit. When you have money in the future, you can move to a bigger one and rent out the small one.
Zhong Liang flipped through the booklet in his hand and said happily: "Miss Jiang, there are three houses that are more suitable for you. I personally recommend this one. It was just renovated last year. It is 110 square meters, with three bedrooms and two living rooms. Look at the photo. It is very beautiful."
Jiang Hanyan looked at the photos and found that the decoration was indeed very nice, the materials used were also very good, and the price was not expensive, only 280,000 yuan, and it was not far from the medical school.
"Why do you want to sell the wedding house? Is there a problem?"
"Don't worry, there is absolutely no problem. The house is good. It's just that the couple had a disagreement after marriage and want to divorce. They want to sell the house to divide the property." Zhong Liang hurriedly explained.
His master told him not to tell the truth to the clients and to just make up an excuse. Some clients were superstitious and thought that houses owned by divorcees had bad feng shui, so they would not buy the houses even though they obviously liked them. But he still didn't want to deceive the clients, and because he always told the truth, he didn't open any business for three months.
Zhong Liang said cautiously: "If you don't like this, you can look at other houses. These two are not bad either, but the decoration is a bit outdated. But the house is very good, the couple is very loving, and they are selling it because they want to buy a bigger house."
"No, let's take this one. Can we see the house now?" Jiang Hanyan asked with a smile.
She had a good impression of Zhong Liang. He was not a cunning person. She particularly hated agents who concealed problems. She had suffered a lot in her previous life and almost lived in a murder case. Fortunately, she had studied Feng Shui and avoided this trap.
"Okay, I'll take you there now."
Zhong Liang was overjoyed and took the first gratifying step. He came here by bicycle, and Jiang Hanyan took a taxi directly. The house was not far away and arrived in about ten minutes.
The house is on the fourth floor, it's a side unit, the location is good, it's only five or six years old, it belongs to an old residential area, but Jiang Hanyan had rented this kind of house in her previous life, and because of the good location, the rent was very expensive.
The interior of the house was exactly as Zhong Liang had described, the decoration was quite tasteful and would be fine even after another twenty years.
"The host is from the Academy of Fine Arts and has very good taste. He designed this house himself. What do you think, Miss Jiang?" Zhong Liang asked nervously, with sweat on the tip of his nose.
He had a vague feeling that today's deal would be successful, and that this beautiful Miss Jiang would be the benefactor of his life.
But he was afraid that he was wrong and didn't dare to think too much.
Jiang Hanyan took a stroll around the house and was quite satisfied with it. She checked the water and electricity and found no problems, so she said, "Okay, can we transfer the ownership today?"
"ah?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Zhong Liang didn't react and was stunned.
"I want to transfer the ownership today and move in tonight. Is there any problem?" Jiang Hanyan asked again.
The owner of the house has already moved out and the furniture has not been moved. She only needs to buy some daily necessities to move in. It is very convenient.
"Sure, no problem. The landlord wants it as soon as possible, too. I'll call them right now."
Zhong Liang was overjoyed and a little confused. It turned out that he was his benefactor. If this deal was successful, he would not be unemployed.
The landlord came very quickly, as he was indeed in a hurry. Both the host and the hostess arrived. The hostess was very beautiful, and the host had long hair and looked like an artist. Jiang Hanyan had 160,000 yuan in her hand, which was enough for the down payment, and the rest could be taken out as a loan.
She took out a mountain of money from her bag. Zhong Liang and the landlord couple were a little dumbfounded and admired Jiang Hanyan very much.
"Ms. Jiang is very courageous to carry so much money with her." The male host said with a smile, looking admiring.
He liked to draw beautiful women, and Jiang Hanyan just happened to be his dream girl, so he really wanted to draw a picture of her.
"It's broad daylight. There's nothing to be afraid of."
Jiang Hanyan smiled faintly. She had a bad impression of the male owner. He had a playboy look and was not a man who would settle down. It was right for the female owner to get a divorce.
Fifteen thousand yuan was deposited into the landlord's account, and then we went to the real estate agency to handle the transfer. The procedures were completed in the afternoon, very quickly. Both parties had to pay Zhong Liang an agency fee.
"Ms. Jiang, my last name is Yan. I'm a teacher at the Academy of Fine Arts. We can keep in touch in the future." The male host handed over his business card. He felt that Jiang Hanyan would definitely not refuse.
