Siheyuan: Starting to work in the street office

Half a month later, two families really came to see the house, but after seeing the house, they shook their heads and the negotiation ended before the price was even discussed.

Mr. Feng was even more disappointed about this.

Originally, home was still here, and the old man was unwilling to leave no matter what.

But now he has lost his home, and his children are urging him to reunite with them as soon as possible. Now he feels that staying one more day is torture.

Zhong Shan saw that the time was almost right.

Once when chatting with Mr. Feng, Zhong Shan looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them.

"Master, I heard you have a house to sell?"

After hearing this, Mr. Feng was cheered up. After the news was released, only a few days ago did someone come to see it. After the visit, the information about the house spread. Everyone knew that a lot of it had collapsed after the earthquake and had not been repaired. No one had come to see it in recent days, and no one wanted to take advantage of it.

After all, it costs a lot of money to renovate a house, and it is not easy to get this advantage without a certain level of financial strength.

Now Xiao Zhong asked, did he have that intention or was he acting as a matchmaker for others?

"Xiao Zhong, have you heard the news too? Yes, I have a shop that has been passed down for sale. There is a shop in the front and a small courtyard in the back.

But since you already know, I won't hide it from you. I can't hide it. You can see it if you go and take a look. There was an earthquake two years ago, and I wasn't at home. The house was damaged a lot, and it has never been repaired. But the materials used in the house were very good, and the large frame walls are fine. We just need to repair the roof."

After hearing what he said, Zhong Shan did not express his opinion.

"Grandpa, let's go take a look. I happen to have some spare money. As you know, Chinese people have no resistance to houses. If it is really suitable, buying it will also add to our family property."

"Oh, yes, if I wasn't too old and couldn't repair it anymore, I would really be reluctant to sell it."

I don't believe you at all, you old man. You still think that others don't know. In fact, the news that you are going to live with your children has spread everywhere.

But Zhong Shan didn't expose him. You sell the house and I buy a house, so why bother about other things?

This was the first time that Zhong Shan came in to take a look. Grandpa Feng was right about one thing. The walls and wood of the house were of sufficient quality and there was no damage. However, most of the windows and roof had collapsed.

"Xiao Zhong, look, I didn't lie to you. This wall is still solid. There's absolutely no problem."

Zhongshan looked around.

"Old man, please don't be offended by what I say. It's already dilapidated to this extent. No matter how strong your walls are, it's useless. If you want to repair it, you have to do a major repair. After spending all the extra money, who would want to keep a few walls? It must be completely rebuilt. If you really want to buy it, to be honest, it's just a place like this. The small courtyard at the back is only one floor and will be less affected. It can be lived in after some repairs. Otherwise, your place will be a ruin."

Although Zhong Shan's words were unpleasant to hear, Mr. Feng knew that this was the fact.

This is also the reason why he didn't repair it. Otherwise, he would definitely be able to sell it for a high price after repairing it. He is not stupid.

The shop in the front is three-story and will definitely need major repairs or even reconstruction. However, the small courtyard in the back is only one-story and has no major problems, so it can be occupied after some repairs.

However, praise and criticism are the buyer's money. The fact that Zhongshan could find fault here instead of turning around and leaving shows that he still has some thoughts on his mind.

"Xiao Zhong, what you said is not wrong. But the good thing about my place is that it is in a good location. The shop is on the main street and the area is large enough. The title deed and the land deed are all there. Even if I can't do business, I can clean up the small yard at the back and make it a good place for people to live. There is such a shortage of houses now, and it is rare for a family to live in such a yard."

Zhong Shan nodded.

"Old man, to be honest, I still live in a slum. After the earthquake, all the houses in the yard were built, and there was no vacant land outside the house. So I came to see you because I heard that you were selling your house.

My children are grown up now, so I just want to make preparations early so that I won’t be unable to buy a house when they grow up. As for the shop in front, it is of no use at all now.

"Master Feng, how about I buy the backyard and you keep the shop in front? If I ever let it do business, you can still sell it at a high price!"

Mr. Feng's heart is now with his children, so naturally he won't sell them separately.

"Xiao Zhong, please don't tease me. If we sell it, we have to sell it together. If I sell the backyard to you, the shop in front will be hard to sell. Xiao Zhong, we have a good relationship. You buy first and I want to sell. You have seen my place, what do you think? If you want to buy it, we can just tell you the price."

Zhong Shan nodded, but that's how it is when buying things, I find fault and you raise the price.

"Of course I want to buy it. I won't hide it from you. I don't have much money. If your house is in good condition, I really can't afford it. I can only afford it if it's not repaired after the earthquake like yours. What price do you plan to sell it for?"

After hearing this, Mr. Feng fell into deep thought. He understood what Xiao Zhong meant very well. Your house is dilapidated. I bought it at a low price.

But if it really was sold at a ruined price, he would really not be willing to do so.

"Xiao Zhong, before the earthquake, I would not have sold this house even if someone offered to sell it for 2 yuan. If I really meet someone I like, it is not impossible to sell it for 3 yuan."

Zhong Shan smiled.

"Master Feng, you also said that was before. Now it's all ruins. To be frank, if it was in good condition when I bought it, even if it collapsed the next day after I bought it, it would be my own bad luck and I can't blame anyone else. But now it's almost a ruin. If I compare it with the price of the good houses before, it can't be compared."

After hearing this, Mr. Feng fell silent. This was the truth. Unlike Zhongshan, who came from a later generation, he didn't know when he would be allowed to do business. This generation was afraid now. Although it was open now, they didn't dare to think about doing business at all.

"Xiao Zhong, let me tell you, as I just said, the backyard can be lived in after some cleaning. I will take the previous lowest price of 20,000 yuan and charge you half of that, 10,000 yuan. How about that?"

After hearing the price, Zhong Shan laughed.

"Master Feng, you are treating me like a fool. You want to buy such a ruin for 10,000 yuan? Can't I just buy a decent yard? To be frank, the most valuable thing about your house is the location and the three-story shop.

But I can't do business now. No matter how good the location is, it's useless. Moreover, the three-story shops have collapsed. The most valuable things are useless now. I bought this house just for the small courtyard at the back, but you don't sell it alone.

Okay, I'll buy them all for you, but you can't ask for too much. Let alone ten thousand, even if it's five thousand, can't I just buy a decent one for the yard? I've spent so much effort, and I still have to repair it after I buy it."
