Chapter 643: Grandma instead of Xianxie
After resting in the hotel for a night, and when they got up the next morning, Hu Mingchen and they went to the alley again and had breakfast by the way.
I have been here twice before, but Hu Mingchen and they have not finished this alley, and they still lack an overall understanding of this alley. Anyway, I can't leave it yet, so let's take a stroll and do a field survey of the situation in this alley.
"This alley doesn't look big from the outside, but I didn't expect so many families to live in it, I'm afraid there are forty or fifty households. After taking a look at it seriously from beginning to end, Hu Jianqiang said.
"Yes, this is not counting those who rent, otherwise there are sixty or seventy households, and I estimate that the area is between five thousand and four to six thousand. Hu Mingchen said.
"Xiao Chen, what do you mean to buy all these old houses?" Hu Jianqiang already knew what the investment project Hu Mingchen took him to see.
"Well, if you can, buy them all. Hu Mingchen stood in the alley, looking at the dark alley as a whole.
In this alley, except for the stone strips that have been laid on the ground for I don't know how many years and the door gods and couplets pasted on the doors of each house, the whole is the kind of dark black tone, black tiles, black wooden walls, black beams, and even the small wooden bench that the local old man brought out and put at the door to sit on, the color is also dark.
Maybe when the house was built, the wooden walls and beams were not black, but the color changed day after day and year after year.
"In my opinion, these houses are basically all only available before the liberation, and some of them are probably more than a hundred years old, what are these houses bought for?" Hu Jianqiang said, "Do you want to transform this place?"
"Third uncle, look at the surroundings, there are all high-rise buildings, next to the city**, in front of the old department store, not far from the most prosperous Zhonghua Road in the south of the town, hehe, this location, in the south of the town, there are few places better than it. Hu Mingchen looked up at the towering building not far away.
Hu Mingchen counted that within a range of 200 meters around this, there are 14 residential buildings and office buildings with more than 30 floors, of which three are office buildings, one is the Jinjiang Hotel, and one is a bank office building. This location is definitely a prime location in the south of the town.
"The point is, it's not easy to buy it, you can't tear down all these houses and build a building, right? This location is not suitable for building a building at all, the area is not small, but it is irregular. Otherwise, this investment is not a good deal at all. Hu Jianqiang frowned.
"You're right, if you just build a building here, it won't work at all, and the building will be very weird, unless, the city next to it will be demolished, at least the wall of the city will be demolished, and it will occupy a foot in its garden. "Hu Jianqiang is no longer Wuxia Ameng, he can't even see this.
"How can the garden of the city's ** be occupied, let alone demolished, who would dare? I'm afraid it's almost the same if I don't want to die. Fang Guoping said.
"Huh. Hu Mingchen smiled and pointed at Fang Guoping and Hu Jianqiang, "You are reasonable, if you don't demolish part of the city, this place is chicken ribs, one side is the street, and the other side is the city, which makes the alley not only narrow and long, but also irregular." I guess that's why this land has been kept until now, otherwise, I don't know how many developers would have started it a long time ago. ”
"That's right, do you think it's good, people can't see it? People didn't do it, they just bought it and it was not easy to get it. Then why do we still buy it? We can't get anything after we buy it, the streets can't be changed, the city can't be occupied, and the buns are burned at both ends. Hu Jianqiang was puzzled and a little resistant.
"Hehe, I naturally have my reasoning, where everyone likes it, there may not be much profit, and the real profit exists in those places that others can't see. Hu Mingchen smiled incomprehensibly, "Let's go, let's be hungry, go to that grandma's house to eat a bowl of rolled noodles and dumplings." ”
Profit is proportional to risk, Hu Jianqiang understands this truth, but no matter how he looks at it, there is only risk in this place, and there is no huge profit. This place is not suitable for commercial development at all, but it is quite suitable if it is bulldozed and transformed into a small square and garden in the city. That kind of small square and small garden does not need rules at all, diamonds, triangles, polygons, whatever you want.
But Hu Mingchen They can't spend a lot of money to buy such a place and engage in this kind of environmental protection and public welfare, there is no income and they have to pay a lot of money, and they can't be turned into a small park that can be charged, who would want to, I'm afraid no one will come for two yuan.
It's just that Hu Mingchen seems to be full of confidence, and he seems to have made up his mind, Hu Jianqiang has no choice, maybe this place really contains treasures that he can't see.
"Hey, young man, why are you here again?" The grandmother who sold things was a little surprised to see Hu Mingchen visit again.
"Grandma, we're hungry, come to you for something to eat, what, we're ...... Can't come?" said Hu Mingchen with a smile on his face.
"No, it's not that you can't come, it's what, didn't you send Second Brother Xiong to the hospital? How is Second Brother Xiong? How did he get hurt?" the old woman pulled Hu Mingchen to a stool and sat down and asked.
At this time, it is not the peak season of this shop, so although there are customers, it is not crowded.
"He must have been injured by a thief, we just sent him to the hospital last night to know a little bit of the situation, he should be fine, but it may be necessary to have surgery. As for whether or not they have woken up now, we don't know. Hu Mingchen replied simply.
"Oh, how can this be, Second Brother Xiong is usually a good person. I went to the hospital to see him at the end of the evening, by the way, which hospital is it in? Are you still going to the hospital today?" asked the old woman.
"What are we going to the hospital for? Are we going to beg for scolding and being blackmailed? Doing good deeds with good intentions, in turn, being treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, and paying 5,000 medical bills in vain. Hu Jianqiang sat next to Hu Mingchen and complained.
"Well, what's going on?" asked the old woman, puzzled.
"Grandma, it's nothing, it's his daughter, treat us as bad people, not to say that his father was injured by us, this is a great wrong, before we went to his house, I also asked you, we just went and found him lying on the ground, so we rushed to send his old man to the hospital, but I also asked you to inform his family, I didn't think about it, it was just misunderstood, they also called the police to arrest us, fortunately, the police comrades are aware of everything, otherwise, we can't go to your old place to eat rice balls. Hu Mingchen said calmly, no longer hearing much complaint in his words, but a little more self-deprecation.
"How can this Xiong Mei be like this, people are kind enough to save her father, but she will take revenge, there really is such a person, but he is like that. The daughter-in-law who was a helper for Grandma listened to Hu Mingchen's description and stood up and spoke up.
"Cao Ping, don't say a word, Xiong Mei may be in a hurry, I'll go to the hospital later, I'll talk about her." Oh, you didn't come in and ask you what you were eating?" said Grandma with a wave at her daughter-in-law.
"Three bowls of roll noodles, two bowls of rice balls, three bowls of ice powder. Hu Mingchen said casually.
"Okay, you do a little bit, come right away, I'll do it for you myself. "The old man is not young, but his hands and feet are still very sharp and tough.
After Hu Mingchen and the others finished eating, when they paid, the old grandmother didn't accept anything.
"I don't have much money, take it back, you can help send Second Brother Xiong to the hospital, just thank you for him in advance." The old woman politely refused.
"Grandma, this yard is one yard, we should send him to the hospital, we can't see death without help. After eating your stuff, we pay, and it should be, we can't eat white food. So, yes, you've got to take the money anyway. Hu Mingchen stuffed the fifty yuan bill in his hand into the old man's hand again.
"No, no, young man, take it back, Grandma invites you to eat two bowls of food, and you can afford it. Now there are not many people who can be so kind, you take it back, go back and talk about Xiong Mei, and try to get her to return the medical expenses you paid in advance. Grandma said enthusiastically.
Grandma's strength in her two hands is not as good as Hu Mingchen's, but she just doesn't take money. Hu Mingchen can't use too much force, so as not to hurt Grandma, it won't be beautiful.
"Then the medical expenses, he is willing to pay back, we want it, if you don't pay it back, it doesn't matter. We are from Liangcheng, and it is impossible to spend money with her family all the time for 5,000 yuan, anyway, when we paid the money in advance, we didn't think about anything else. Hu Mingchen said.
"How can you not pay it back, what kind of person is it, Second Brother Xiong himself will not agree. Just wait, I'll talk about her. If you don't take it, don't come to eat with me in the future. The old grandmother pulled Hu Mingchen's sleeve with one hand, and kept stuffing the fifty yuan into Hu Mingchen's body with the other.
"Okay, then I'll take it, thank you, Grandma, I'll come here again in the future. Hu Mingchen couldn't be stubborn, so he reluctantly took back the fifty yuan and put it in the pocket of his clothes.
"This old man is really a little interesting, that's not her family, does she need to thank others?" After walking a few meters, Hu Jianqiang said.
"There is a big difference between their older generation and their younger generation. The emotions they value more, although they are not a family, but their two families should have lived in this alley for decades, as the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, so decades, maybe not a family but even more family. Hu Mingchen had some experience.
"That's right, what should we do now? Do you want to ask other families to see if their houses are willing to sell?" Hu Jianqiang nodded and proposed.
