Siheyuan: Starting to work in the street office

It would be fine if Zhong Dahai was alone, since he is my own brother.

But now Zhong Dahai has a partner, and it is not a good idea for his family to continue living in his brother's house.

Moreover, the location of this house is good, and it shares the same yard with my two younger brothers.

As the eldest in the family, Zhong Haiyan didn't need to discuss anything with anyone. After hearing the news, she went straight to the Han family.

After knocking on the door, Han's mother opened it.

"Oh, you must be Sister Han, I am Zhong Dahai's sister. I heard that you were planning to sell your house, so I came to take a look."

Han's mother's actual surname is Zheng, but she didn't correct the address. After the house is sold, they won't have any more contact, so she can call her whatever she wants.

Han's mother naturally knew Zhong Haiyan and was waiting for her. In the past two days, someone in the courtyard also asked her that the house normally sold for 600 yuan, but when the visitors heard that he wanted 800 yuan, they turned around and left without even thinking of bargaining.

"Oh, it's you, big sister. You are so lucky. Your brother is already a section chief at such a young age. You are here to see the house. Come in quickly."

After letting Zhong Haiyan into the courtyard, Han's mother showed her around and introduced her:

"Big sister, you can see that the houses in our courtyard are rare and neatly arranged. Unlike other courtyards, where the rooms are all messy, it's not like ours. Although my house is in the west wing, it's rare to find such a clean courtyard with three rooms."

When Zhong Haiyan heard Han's mother praising her like that, she knew that the money couldn't be less. The news that the Han family wanted 800 for three rooms spread throughout the yard. When neighbors went to ask about the price, the old Han family directly asked for 800. The neighbors who were scared by her would naturally help her spread the word.

Before she came, she also asked her brother. Zhong Dahai only spent 800 on the three northern rooms, but your Han family's wing rooms are being sold at the price of the northern rooms.

The reason why Zhong Haiyan came today was naturally to negotiate down the price. After all, she still liked the house very much.

"Sister, how much do you want to sell this house for? I'll take a look and if the price is right, I'll keep it."

Finally hearing this, Han's mother's eyes sparkled: "Sister, given the layout of our courtyard house, it's so neat, my house must be more expensive than those big courtyard houses.

Others who come to ask me will not sell it for less than 800. Big sister, since you are here and Dahai and I are neighbors, I will ask you to sell it for less, 780, this price is very sincere, right? "

Zhong Haiyan heard this and thought, what kind of sincerity is this? But you are asking for a high price, and I will pay you back:

"Old sister, although I have only been in our city for a short time, I have heard before I came that the normal price for three rooms here is only 600 yuan. My brother's three rooms in the north are a little bigger, so he paid 800 yuan. 800 yuan for your west wing is indeed a bit high."

After Zhong Haiyan finished speaking, she looked at Han's mother's expression and said:

"To be honest, my husband and I are currently living in my brother's apartment. We also paid a high price for it. It would be much better for me to buy that apartment. What's the point of buying a bungalow?"

In fact, she was just trying to coax Han's mother. Zhong Dahai's house was not his yet. It was allocated by the steel rolling mill. Besides, Zhong Dahai had no spare money and he didn't buy it as a private house. He could only live in it now. Originally, Zhong Dahai planned to save money to buy it, but ended up buying a courtyard house. Now he still owed Zhong Shan 800 yuan.

But Han's mother didn't know that people are still very envious of buildings, and she was really worried that she would run away after asking for a high price, so Zhong Haiyan went to buy the building.

"Hey, sister, 780 is my price. We can discuss how much you want to pay."

After Zhong Haiyan saw that Han's mother was no longer insisting on the price, she bargained according to her idea:

"Old sister, your house normally costs only 600. I bought it so that I can be closer to my brother and take care of him. You should be able to see this. I will add a little to the 600. How about 630? It's a lot."

When Han's mother saw this, she thought, this won't work. I asked for 800 but you gave me 630. That's too much of a difference.

"Big sister, you can't calculate it like that. The house in our yard is taller than the other houses, the materials used are better, and the house is sturdy, so it should be more expensive than other houses. 630 is really not enough to sell it for. I'll go a little lower, 730, it really can't be any lower."

Zhong Haiyan was no pushover either. After much haggling between the two, the price was above 680 and would not go down any further.

This price is actually acceptable. The Han family bought the house for 600 yuan in the first place, but that was because after Xu Damao got into trouble, the Xu family was sad and wanted to sell it as soon as possible, so they didn't ask for a high price.

Zhong Haiyan was very satisfied with this price, and Han's mother could also think it was acceptable. By moving to a place where no one knew them, they could buy three rooms for 600 yuan, and make a profit of 80 yuan all in all.

"Big sister, you are really good at talking. Look at the furniture in this room. If you add a little more, I will give you all the furniture."

Zhong Haiyan rolled her eyes after hearing this, of course not in front of Han's mother. What the hell, I bought it at a high price, and you are still trying to raise the price!

"Old sister, forget about the furniture. You can take it away. I have to clean it up after I buy it. The furniture also needs to be replaced."

When Han's mother heard that the furniture had not been sold, she was not discouraged. She thought the furniture was still good and that the house she had chosen for moving was a bit far away, so it was not worth moving. However, she could still make some money by selling it.

"Big sister, if you don't want it, I'll take it away. Let's sign the contract quickly. The sooner we buy it, the better."

What was signed was naturally an IOU for the mortgage of the house. The Han family could not pay the money back, so they mortgaged the house to Zhong Haiyan.

After finishing writing, Zhong Haiyan paid the money and gave the Han family two days to pack up, and the house then belonged to her family.

As for the Han family, they never appeared again after leaving the courtyard.

In the evening, the Zhong family had dinner at Zhong Dahai's house. At the dinner table, Zhong Haiyan brought up the idea of ​​buying a house.

"I bought the old Han family's house in the west wing today. Does anyone know how to find a bricklayer? I'll find someone to clean it up, plaster the walls, and fix the windows and doors."

After hearing what Zhong Haiyan said, everyone at the table was stunned. Is it that simple? Just touching the upper lip with the lower lip and you're done?

Zhong Dahai asked quickly: "Sister, how much did you spend on it? Let's discuss it before buying it."

Zhong Haiyan glanced at Zhong Dahai and said, "What's there to discuss about buying a house? I bought it because the price was right. It's close to you and I can take care of you."

Song Jiabao also helped his wife: "That's right, it's just a small amount of money to buy a house, what's there to discuss? Besides, your sister is so smart, how can she suffer a loss? Dahai, you still want to control your sister."

Zhong Dahai looked at his lackey brother-in-law and said to himself, "What a rich man!"
