Chapter 91 Buying a house and giving away furniture
"Brother Guan, right? Hello, I'm going to buy a house, to be precise, I'm going to buy a yard! Aunt Wang also said just now, I'm a student of CAFA, and I'm going to get a yard as a studio. Zhang Junping didn't care about Guan Jiaming's questioning eyes, and said with a calm smile.
"You were introduced by Aunt Wang, and I won't make up with you, 300,000 yuan! This is my reserve price, and I won't sell it if I don't sell it for less!" Guan Jiaming said very bluntly.
Good fellow, crisp enough, not a business person.
This also shows that although Aunt Wang is shrewd and calculating, she has a good character and does not fool him.
"Can you take a look at the house first?" said Zhang Junping with a smile.
"Yes, you can watch it!"
Zhang Junping nodded, turned around and came to the yard, and walked around inside and out, looking at the layout of the yard, the house, the attic, and the quality of the house.
This courtyard, Zhang Junping liked it at a glance, the building structure of the backyard house and the courtyard house is not the same, it is taller and larger than the courtyard, and the depth is two meters more than the courtyard house, and it is a large open room with three rooms connected together.
When this house was first built, the purpose was very clear, that is, to use it as a workshop.
This yard is really good, the location is good, a little bit is suitable for the use of the furniture factory plant.
It's the price that makes people smack their teeth!
It turned out that he had a few thousand yuan in his hand, and he felt that he was a rich man, but as a result, after buying a house, he realized that he was still that poor bastard.
The revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard!
Zhang Junping secretly warned himself that there is still a long way to go before he can achieve financial freedom and wave freely.
When Zhang Junping returned to the front yard, Guan Jiaming was already waiting in the yard, and when he saw him hurriedly coming up, a relieved smile appeared on his face.
"How about my yard, if you want to live in it, it may be a little empty, this house is too big, and it leaks.
But if it's a studio, it's absolutely fine, it's spacious, quiet, don't you artists pay attention to letting go of yourself?
In a house like this, you can let yourself go and find inspiration. ”
Zhang Junping nodded and agreed, "The house is very good, I like it, the price is ......"
"The price really can't be allowed, I'm so direct, you brought it by Aunt Wang, I didn't want to shake it from the beginning!
If you like it, the old furniture and old objects in the house will be left for you, don't you artists like this thing!" Seeing that Zhang Junping really wanted it, Guan Jiaming said that he would not bargain, but he still gave way.
This step is just a small step in Guan Jiaming's opinion, and it is normal to buy a house and send old furniture and old things.
Zhang Junping's heart was beating violently, bang, bang, he felt that he could hear his heartbeat.
It doesn't matter what the furniture is, although it is all old craftsmanship and the workmanship is very fine, but the materials are all elm.
Such dozens of pieces of furniture, large and small, will look like two or three hundred thousand after 30 years.
The furniture isn't worth much, but don't forget what it used to be for, bookstore!
Just now, Zhang Junping found a lot of calligraphy and paintings in a warehouse, and there were thousands of calligraphy and paintings.
Because it was someone else's thing, Zhang Junping just opened it casually and took a look.
The calligraphy and paintings he opened included Mr. Qigong's words, Liu Bingsen's words, Li Keqi's paintings, and Huang Binhong's paintings.
Needless to say, there will be calligraphy and paintings of Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian and others hidden in it, just these few, if they are all theirs, it will be an astronomical number.
As for why there are these calligraphy and paintings in the warehouse, it is very simple, the calligraphy and paintings of these people in this era are not valuable.
Liu Bingsen's characters cost a few cents a pair, and Li Keqi and Huang Binhong's paintings only cost a few yuan a pair in Wangfujing Calligraphy and Painting Store.
It is estimated that when the house was moved to the house, people thought that these calligraphy and paintings were troublesome, and the worthless things left and right were simply together with the furniture and directly discounted to Guan Jiaming.
Implement policies to return property, not just the house, but also the contents of the house, as well as other property.
The house is easy to say, the things in the house, more than ten or twenty years have passed, and most of them have long been unknown.
Therefore, it is generally discounted to make up the money or offset with the things in the current house.
Zhang Junping's heart was beating endlessly, so that he felt a little difficult to breathe.
"Okay, according to what Brother Guan said, I also took a look at the things inside, there are a lot of antiques, calligraphy and paintings, porcelain from the middle and late Qing Dynasty, and I really like these things. In this way, I won't take advantage of you, all the things in this yard plus the yard, I will give you a total of 350,000 yuan!"
"Brother pays attention to people!" Zhang Junping took the initiative to increase the price, Guan Jiaming was naturally happy, patted Zhang Junping on the shoulder, and gave him a thumbs up, "However, I can't ask for this money, we old Beijingers, pay attention to virtue! I said that if I send you, I will give you away, and I can't ask for more money from you!"
"Brother Guan, you are also particular about people, let's be honest, I just took a look, those calligraphy and paintings have the words of Mr. Qigong, as well as Li Keqi and Li Lao's paintings, so the boss is a bunch, as well as those official kiln porcelain in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, elm furniture in the late Qing Dynasty, these plus a piece, I will give you 50,000 yuan, and it has been cheapened by your boss!" Zhang Junping said very sincerely.
Following the old lady and Yang Mingde's side, what I learned the most was not skills, but the temperament of life.
"Xiao Guan, let me tell you, Master Xiao Zhang is a real person, you see, since ancient times, how can there be someone like Master Xiao Zhang who is in a hurry to add money?" Aunt Wang interjected next to her.
"Yes, Aunt Wang, you're right, Master Zhang is a real person!
Brother Xiao Zhang, I know what you said, I also went to the cultural relics store, the calligraphy and painting store and asked, Qi Lao's characters are given two yuan, Li Lao's paintings are more than one foot and five yuan, and those porcelains are also given ten yuan and eight yuan.
I also know that these things will definitely be worth money in the future, but I am going abroad, and I can't take the things with me, and they are not worth selling to state-run stores!
If you like it, I'll give it to you!" Guan Jiaming said with a smile.
"This is really inappropriate, I can't take advantage of you so much, I can't pass this hurdle in my heart!" Zhang Junping also has his own insistence.
I will not give a price that exceeds this era, and I will not bully people who do not know how to take advantage of it.
After arguing for a long time, the deal was finally made according to the price Zhang Junping said.
Zhang Junping first paid a deposit of 1,000 yuan, Guan Jiaming wrote a note, and Aunt Wang, as an intermediary, also signed it, and agreed to pay the full amount after going through the transfer procedures three days later.
When he went out, the cold wind blew, Zhang Junping came to his senses, he was sloppy, just thinking that the house was good, but the money had not yet landed.
