It will soon be the twelfth day of the first lunar month.

Zhou Liuping took all her own money.

She rode her bike to the northernmost end of the county, to the shop she had visited last time.

The door was indeed open!

"Is there anyone in the house?"

Zhou Liuping asked loudly.

"Anyone, is there anyone who wants to rent a room?"

"Oh, that's what I mean."

A middle-aged man in his forties came out of the house, followed by a middle-aged woman.

It's obviously a couple.

"Hello, uncle and aunt!"

"Girl, are you alone?"

"Oh, I was passing by and saw the rental sign on the window. So I came over to ask."

The two of them listened and had already opened the shop door.

The three rooms of the shop are spacious and connected together with several pillars in the middle.

Whatever you do is fine.

"Uncle and aunt, how much do you want to rent it for?"

"In previous years, it was 100 yuan, but last year, it was not rented out at all."

"We want to sell the shop and the yard inside."

Zhou Liuping checked and heard that the rent was one hundred yuan, which was not much.

"The location is too remote and there is no customer traffic. Even if the rent is cheap, it will still be a loss."

Zhou Liuping analyzed.

The other party nodded:

"Last year, there were more inquiries than actual tenants."

"Are you planning to sell them together?"

"Yes, my son is in the provincial capital. We want to sell the house in the county town."

"Oh, how much are you going to sell it for?"

The middle-aged man looked at Zhou Liuping as if he were a child. He smiled and asked:

"Girl, why are you asking this?"

Zhou Liuping knew that the two people in front of her did not believe that she was the one who wanted to buy the house.

How can a girl in her early twenties afford to buy a house?

Zhou Liuping answered with certainty:

"I don't mean to tease you. I want to see how much you want."

"If it fits, I'll buy it."

"Girl, you are so arrogant. I am going to ask for 2,000 yuan. If you really want it, I will sell it to you for 1,000 yuan."

Zhou Liuping went into the yard again to take a look.

I remember the yard I bought in the east of the county town. I wanted 500 yuan at first.

Although there are many rooms, they are all shabby.

The rooms here are 80% new, and there are four main rooms in the courtyard. There are three shops facing the street, and one is the main gate.

The other party saw that Zhou Liuping hadn't said anything, and thought that he was indeed an idle person who was just wandering around.

The auntie was unhappy and ordered them to leave:

"Girl, if you don't want to buy it, just get out! We still want to take a break! We just got back by bus today."

Zhou Liuping thought that one thousand yuan was not expensive, but since she had already spent all this money, she would not be able to do anything else.

See if it can be lowered a bit more.

"Uncle and aunt, your house is nice, but it's too remote. It's a shame to buy it to live in. If you buy it to run a small business, you will definitely lose money without customers."

"It's not popular!"

The uncle heard the girl in front of him talking about his house as if it was worthless.

I asked a little angrily:

"I'll make it cheaper, can you afford it?"

"Uncle, if you can make it cheaper, maybe I will bite the bullet and buy it!"

"Do you mean what you say?"

"count!"

"Then give me a price."

"Eight hundred! Not a cent less! The other side has to pay it all."

"real?"

"real!"

"Okay, eight hundred is eight hundred. Two hundred less is fine."

The aunt standing next to him was anxious and tried to stop him:

"Eight hundred is too little, how can it be reduced by twelve hundred yuan in one go?"

"Auntie, it's reduced by 200 yuan. Just now the uncle asked for 1,000 yuan, and I gave him 800 yuan. It's really reduced by 200 yuan."

The auntie understood, but she just didn’t want to sell it so cheaply.

The uncle was quite cheerful instead.

"Girl, to be honest with you, I'm in urgent need of money."

"My son is getting married and is eagerly waiting for the bride price!"

Zhou Liuping knew that there couldn't be any less, so she said:

"Uncle, do you have a property certificate for this house?"

"No, there is no property certificate for the house in our county town. But there is a land certificate!"

"Then find the middleman who wrote the agreement!"

"You have money?"

Zhou Liuping wanted to say that she had brought it with her, but she was afraid that the uncle would change his mind. She thought that she was deliberately lowering the price and whether she knew some other information.

Then he said:

"I'll go and raise the money, uncle, please find a middleman."

Zhou Liuping said this and was about to ride away on her bike.

The uncle hurriedly grabbed Zhou Liuping's bicycle.

"Girl, leave the deposit first. If you ride away on your bike and don't come back, I'll let you fool me, right?"

Zhou Liuping saw that the uncle didn't believe her. It was true that a girl in her early twenties was buying a house. Buying a house was a big deal, how could it be done by just one person?

When someone buys a house, they have to look at it several times and invite many people.

Zhou Liuping took out fifty yuan and handed it to the uncle.

"Give me a receipt."

The uncle doesn't trust Zhou Liuping, and Zhou Liuping can't rely on him!

The uncle took the 50 yuan deposit, happily wrote a receipt, and then let Zhou Liuping go.

"Hurry up girl, we're waiting for you!"

Zhou Liuping rode her bike to a nearby bend, turned the bend and rode a little further before stopping to rest.

He took out another 750 yuan from a place where no one was around and put the remaining money away.

After a while, she slowly pushed her bicycle towards the north of the city.

When she reached the turning point, Zhou Liuping got on the bike again.

Sure enough, she saw the aunt waiting for her at the gate from a distance!

Zhou Liuping rode up to the auntie and asked as he got off his bike:

"Uncle, are you looking for the person who wrote the contract?"

"The person who wrote the agreement has arrived. It's our neighbor."

Zhou Liuping followed him into the house.

The uncle saw that the girl was still alone, so he asked curiously:

"Such a big thing, your parents didn't come?"

"It's all up to me!"

"I have bought houses several times and I can understand the house purchase contract."

There were three people in the room, two of whom Zhou Liuping knew in her previous life.

Of course, these two people don’t know the current Zhou Liuping.

Zhou Liuping greeted the two with a smile:

"Uncle Liu, Uncle Wang, hello. I feel relieved to see you two here."

The two men, who Zhou Liuping called Uncle Liu and Uncle Wang, looked at Zhou Liuping carefully, but they couldn't remember where they had seen him before, let alone know him.

Zhou Liuping knew that they would not recognize her, but she knew that these two people were good people, so she asked again:

"Uncle Liu, your sister still lives in the south of the city?"

"Yes, he's still living in the old house!"

"Oh, there are too many families living in that courtyard, and there are a lot of noisy conflicts."

Uncle Liu figured out that the girl should be a neighbor of his sister. He went to his sister's place and found that she knew him.

"My sister also wants to move out, but she doesn't have the money to buy a house."

Zhou Liuping turned to Uncle Wang and asked:

"Uncle Wang's eldest son is still working at the Public Security Bureau, right?"

Uncle Wang said with a smile:

"Yes, do you know him?"

"Oh!"

"Let's write a contract!"

Zhou Liuping knew two of the three middlemen. Naturally, they wrote out the house sale contract in two copies in a neat and tidy manner.

The uncle signed and put his fingerprints on it, and Zhou Liuping signed and put his fingerprints on it.

Zhou Liuping still signed his name as Zhou Ping.

After several people counted the rent, Zhou Liuping packed up the house contract.

The uncle looked at the house he had built with great effort, and realized that it was no longer his.

It's a bit sad.

The aunt also wiped away her tears.

Uncle Liu said:

"Now that the money has been paid and the contract has been written, the deal is done."

Uncle Wang also advised:

"Don't be sad. You can build it later when you have money. The most important thing now is for your son to find a wife."

"You guys should discuss with Zhou Ping and decide when to move out?"

Zhou Liuping got to know Uncle Liu and Uncle Wang through her interpersonal relationships in her previous life.

Both of them spoke to Zhou Liuping.

Zhou Liuping gave a time without waiting for the other party to say it.

"Today is the twelfth day of the first lunar month. Is ten days enough?"

"Enough, enough!"
