Siheyuan: Starting to work in the street office

Liu Haizhong looked at Boss Wu with firm eyes.

"No problem. I can see that Boss Wu is very honest and he doesn't forget his roots. I am also willing to help him. Don't worry, leave this matter to me. I will ask for you later and make sure you get what you want."

Boss Wu has some vision. Just before entering the yard, Boss Wu saw that there were many shops on the street, with a large flow of people and a strong business atmosphere. The location of this place is also good, quiet in a bustling city, and he will definitely not suffer a loss if he buys it.

And there is one thing he did not lie about. Boss Wu's name is Wu Zongyuan. His family background was not good back then, so they fled from New Taipei City to Hong Kong Island. It's just that his family fled there for the war, so they didn't have much money.

He had just barely made ends meet in Hong Kong Island over the years. After Pengcheng developed, he followed the bosses who came here to invest because he spoke Mandarin well, and he made a lot of money.

This amount of money cannot buy a very big house in Hong Kong Island, but it can fulfill his wish of living in a big house in Hong Kong, so he bought the house with a sincere heart.

After discussing business, Liu Haizhong invited Boss Wu to dinner. When they came out, Boss Wu was still looking at the compound, and he became more and more satisfied.

If such a large courtyard is all mine, I can also show my face in front of my former relatives in the old city and let them see that I, Wu Zongyuan, have made it.

After arriving at the restaurant, Boss Wu was even more satisfied. His house was not far from the restaurant and the food tasted quite good. In the past two years, he had been following the big bosses in Hong Kong Island and had only eaten such delicious food a few times.

"Boss Liu, the food here tastes great. It's really well made."

Compared to Boss Wu who was very satisfied, Liu Haizhong felt more and more embarrassed.

Zhongshan's restaurant is also very profitable, can he sell it? And it's easy for others to say, but Zhongshan's elder brother Zhong Dahai is the deputy director of the branch. For no reason, why do you go to his house and ask him to sell the house?

Then I am really a birthday star who is hanging himself and have had enough of living.

Why did I agree to it at home?

Boss Wu enjoyed the meal very much, but Liu Haizhong was preoccupied and didn't taste anything.

After returning home, Liu Guangqi saw that his old father looked worried and asked curiously.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? You were distracted during dinner. You must be worried."

Bangzhong sighed.

"Hey, Boss, I'm just worried about how to buy a house. If it's just one or two houses, it's not impossible to negotiate and give more money, but Boss Wu wants to buy our whole yard. There are quite a few people in this family, more than 20 people, so it's not easy for him to handle this matter."

When Liu Guangqi heard this, he realized that this was the problem. In Liu Guangqi's opinion, there was nothing that could not be solved with money. If there was, it was just that there was not enough money and it was just a broken yard.

"Dad, there's nothing to worry about. At most, we can give them a little more. If it's still not enough, we can give them double the amount. After all, we don't have to pay for it ourselves. We have Boss Wu to help us.

The neighbors have to thank us, otherwise they wouldn't be able to sell their shabby houses at such a high price.

Besides, as long as we can hook up with Boss Wu, it doesn’t matter if we lose some money. If we do big business with Boss Wu, we can make it back in one go.”

Liu Haizhong agreed when he heard it.

He could definitely afford this little bit of money. He had made a lot of money reselling rebar recently. In this neighborhood, the Liu family was considered one of the richest families. As long as he could keep up with Boss Wu, he didn't care about this little bit of money.

However, he is not very familiar with anyone in the courtyard except the central courtyard, so he has to start with the central courtyard. Lao Yi is the person Liu Hai is most familiar with. If he can convince him and let Lao Yi, the former uncle, help him, half of the matter will be done.

Thinking of this, Liu Haizhong could no longer sit still. Regardless of the fact that it was already dark outside, he stood up and ran towards Yi Zhonghai's house.

"Lao Yi, are you home? I'm in the fringe."

Of course Yi Zhonghai was at home. He and his wife had just finished dinner and were sitting on a stool watching TV. After hearing the voice, Yi Zhonghai was a little puzzled. Why was Liu Haizhong here?

But the door still has to be opened.

"Old Liu, why are you so idle today? Come in."

Yi Zhonghai let Liu Haizhong into the house and poured him a glass of water.

After Liu Haizhong sat down, he smiled at Yi Zhonghai.

"Old Yi, I'm here to congratulate you. It's a great event for our courtyard. Mr. Wu from Hong Kong Island likes our courtyard and wants to buy it at a high price.

I thought, this is a good thing. Many of the houses in our yard have been in disrepair for many years. Look at how old the walls are. Boss Wu bought the yard at a high price. We can use the money to move to another place. We can buy two houses for the price of one house. How can this be so cheap? "

When Yi Zhonghai heard Liu Haizhong talking about buying a house, his eyes were fixed on Liu Haizhong. Liu Haizhong really knew how to find people.

If we were to ask who in the courtyard least wants to change house, Yi Zhonghai would definitely be ranked first.

Now Yi Zhonghai has retired from the steel rolling mill. He is no longer the respected eighth-level fitter. Outside this yard, he is just an ordinary lonely old man.

As long as he spends one day in this yard, he is considered an eighth-level fitter. Everyone calls him uncle, and He Yuzhu takes care of him in his old age. Qin Huairu's family also comes occasionally to help pick up things around the house.

Liu Haizhong is trying to dig out Yi Zhonghai's lifeblood.

"Old Liu, I'm old now, I can't stand the hassle anymore. I'm used to living in our yard, and I get along well with the neighbors. It's fine. I won't sell it. Thank you for your kindness. You can ask Boss Wu to find someone else. I know the other residents in our yard, so I'm the one who makes the decision. I won't sell it, no matter how high or low it is."

Yi Zhonghai didn't even say the word "you", he just called it "you" directly, which showed that he was on the verge of getting angry.

But Liu Haizhong's mind was now full of hooking up with Boss Wu and making his business bigger and stronger. Although he felt something was wrong after hearing what he just said, he didn't care and was still trying to lobby Yi Zhonghai.

"Old Yi, what era is this now? You can't be stubborn. People move and live, trees move and die. There is no one who doesn't move. It's not easy to come across such a good opportunity. Take your family for example. If you sell these two houses now and move to another place, you can buy four houses. Two houses for four. How simple is this account?"

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand to stop Liu Haizhong who was about to continue speaking.

"Lao Liu, why do I need such a big house? After all, I used to be an eighth-level fitter in a steel rolling mill, and my monthly salary is not bad. If I wanted to change houses, I would have changed them long ago, and there is no need to wait until now. The same goes for the pillars. It's good like this now. I can also be the owner of the pillars. I won't sell it."
