Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

After all, Beijing is her base, and she has a place to live when she returns home.

In comparison, Chen Qiaoqiao, who had just experienced a major change, really needed a real home of her own.

Hearing this, Chen Qiaoqiao finally mustered up the courage and said to Xu Wanning, "Then lend me 4,000 yuan. I want to buy the house just now."

"Four thousand? Don't you have more than five thousand? You only need to borrow three thousand." Tang Ting asked puzzledly.

Chen Qiaoqiao: "But the landlord just said that he would not consider selling it if the price is less than 9,000 yuan."

Xu Wanning smiled and said, "Don't worry about that. I'll negotiate the price with her. If she doesn't want to sell it for 8,000 yuan, just add a little more money. No matter how much you are short, I will make it up to you."

"Yeah!" Chen Qiaoqiao nodded vigorously, and the smile on her face became brighter.

Tang Ting didn't like this house.

The main reason was that the first house she saw was so good that this house was not good in comparison. She didn't have to settle for second best, so she would rather not buy it.

The landlord was standing at the door, listening to the three of them chatting in the yard, and his heart sank.

Didn’t we agree to buy his house?

How come you would rather pay more to buy someone else's house than consider his?

Although his house is a little small, it is cheap!

Thinking of this, the landlord couldn't help but ask.

"If you can make it a little cheaper, we can consider it."

The landlord offered seven thousand yuan for a house like this, which is neither expensive nor cheap.

The landlord is just an ordinary family, and this house is their ancestral property.

It was impossible for him to lower the price by 500 yuan right away. Although the people around Xu Wanning were not short of money, 200 or 300 yuan was four or five months' salary for an ordinary person. An ordinary family might not be able to spend 200 or 300 yuan in half a year.

So the landlord gritted his teeth and quoted his bottom price: "Six thousand seven hundred yuan, this is the lowest price."

"Row."

Xu Wanning answered straightforwardly: "There is a bank over at the Housing Authority. Let's go directly to the Housing Authority and pay the money while the transfer is done."

Ok?

Tang Ting and Chen Qiaoqiao both looked at Xu Wanning with confusion.

What is going on? How come the house purchase was decided so quickly?

Can it be faster?

It was not until Xu Wanning got the freshly-issued property certificate that Tang Ting could not help but ask, "Wanning, did you really buy this house?"

Xu Wanning nodded: "Although it's a little small, but 6,700 yuan is not expensive, so let's buy it first."

Six thousand seven hundred yuan now may be worth ten or twenty million in the future!

However, for Xu Wanning, she could easily earn 6,000 to 7,000 yuan in the 1970s and 1980s, and it would not be a big deal to earn several million in 20 or 30 years.

Tang Ting didn't know what to say anymore.

If you want to be rich, you have to look at Xu Wanning!

But now, Xu Wanning and Chen Qiaoqiao have already found a house, but she is still in the dark. Tang Ting can't help but feel a little anxious.

"Forget it, let's go buy a house with Qiaoqiao first. That house is really good, so as to avoid any changes if we delay. It will still be in time for me to buy it later in the evening."

"Don't worry, let's look around. What if we come across something more suitable than that one?"

What Xu Wanning said was right. The three of them walked around a few alleys and finally, Tang Ting came across her dream room.

The size and layout of the house are similar to the one Chen Qiaoqiao liked. There are also furniture such as tables, chairs, benches and beds in the house. It is a house that you can move into right away.

The landlord only wanted nine thousand yuan for this house.

"The house is worth eight thousand dollars, so the furniture should be worth at least one thousand dollars, right?" Tang Ting whispered to Xu Wanning.

Although she was the daughter of the director of the lighting factory and had more experience than ordinary girls, she was still far behind Xu Wanning, so she couldn't help but ask Xu Wanning.

She always felt that with Xu Wanning's help and advice, she would feel more at ease.

"It's not worth a thousand dollars, but eight or nine hundred is fine. This house is very good in every way. I suggest you buy it."

"It's just that I'm a little short of money. Can you lend me 2,500 yuan? No, just lend me 3,000 yuan. I have to keep some money for myself. I'll pay you back when I get my salary next month."

Compared to Chen Qiaoqiao's cautiousness, Tang Ting was much more straightforward in borrowing money.

Xu Wanning naturally would not favor one over the other. It was impossible for her to lend it to Chen Qiaoqiao but not to Tang Ting. Anyway, this amount of money was nothing to her.

So, Tang Ting bought her first house in her life for 9,000 yuan.

After getting the property certificate, Tang Ting sat on a wooden stool made of unknown material and sighed.

"Before, my family only gave me 10 or 20 yuan of pocket money every month, and I thought I was much happier than most of my classmates and friends. At least I could afford anything I liked by going to the supply and marketing cooperative or department store. Who would have thought that in just two or three years, I could actually own my own house."

Nine thousand yuan! Even if the whole Tang family worked together, including the savings of the two elder brothers' families, they might not be able to come up with that much money.

But she could actually afford it and even buy a house!

Although three thousand yuan out of the nine thousand yuan was borrowed from Xu Wanning, what does it matter?

She will always be able to earn this money and return it to Xu Wanning.

After reading the property certificate over and over again for several times, Tang Ting carefully put it away and said seriously, "Wan Ning, there is something I wanted to discuss with you a long time ago, but I didn't find a suitable opportunity before, and I didn't know how to start for a while."

Xu Wanning nodded, "Tell me what's the matter."

"We will be going to be seniors when school starts. According to the career plan given to us by the school, we will still be studying in school in the first half of the semester, and we should be arranged to do internships in the company in the second semester. After graduation, we can be arranged to work directly."

"I know that being a Huaqing University student is very valuable and that it is easier for us to be assigned to good units and good jobs than students from other schools. But whenever I think about having to fight with others for a little bit of benefit in the future, I feel uncomfortable."

"I am gifted in study, otherwise I would not have been admitted to Huaqing University. However, my talent is not worth mentioning in front of the real geniuses. There are so many college students every year, but there are only so many jobs, which means one person for each position. Some people may not be as good as me in study, but they are more suitable for working in the unit than me. There are many such students in our class."
