92. Exquisite old house
Most of the people are sitting on the ground in the county, and some are composed of ruffians and hooligans, if you accidentally offend the teeth, don't say revenge, everything will give you the ability to make a little trip. These people are rooted in the tooth industry, and most of them are people with a way and a background.
Chen Qing was busy with good words and thanked his teeth before explaining his intentions.
"If you are the half of the house in the truth, even if you can't do business, it doesn't matter, but this is a whole house in my hand, and the price is not so cost-effective in Qingping County. And the seller is in a hurry to make a move, if I hadn't pressed it down and was taken away, wouldn't you really take a look?"
Chen Qing's face was a little hesitant, if it was really the whole mansion, and the price was cheap, he really wanted to buy it, "How much silver?"
"Don't worry, if the price is high, I don't dare to force it down, although the house is small, it is a single-door courtyard, which is exactly what you want" Seeing Chen Qing's hesitation, Ren Yazi hurriedly fooled people over first.
Chen Qing thought about it, anyway, he had to give Yazi a hard fee or two, and he didn't look at it in vain, "That's it, I'm bothering you to run again"
While the two were talking, they came to an old house in the northwest corner of Xicheng District. Xicheng District is also called the old city, most of the houses are boxy and evenly distributed, unlike the streets and alleys of Beicheng District, which are planned chaotically, and the alleys can make people dizzy. But most of these houses are old, unlike the newly built mansions in Nancheng District, like Liang Zijun, who covers an area of one acre and is located in Nancheng District.
The people who live in the old city are all families who have continued for several generations in the county, and the ancestral house has been passed down from generation to generation, and the light yƬ will not be taken out, even if the origin is another house in Nancheng District, this ancestral house is not for sale.
Chen Qingxiang has seen a lot of houses, and it is the first time to set foot in the old city. The mottled stone walls reveal a sense of old age, and the plaque on the door of the house has also been washed away by the rain.
"Don't look at this old house, it's a house handed down from the ancestors, this has to be counted up a few generations, they are all famous families in the county, but now it's in decline," Ren Yazi said with emotion.
Chen Qing pushed open the creaking wooden door, he didn't hate old houses, which of those Beijing courtyard houses in his previous life was not the older the more valuable? And the old houses with an old smell also had a special charm to live in.
Entering the courtyard, the three main rooms facing the door are not big, there is a suite, a wing room on the left and right, and a well is dug in the middle, although the house is small but complete. The whole courtyard is rectangular and covers an area of no more than 200 square meters.
There are potted plants in front of the house, and a shed for the shade is set up under the main house, and a stone table and a rattan chair are placed below. The courtyard as a whole looks clean and tidy, and the details are exquisite.
The more Chen Qing looked at it, the more powerless he became, this house was old and old, but it was the style that Chen Qing liked, and the price of half a house was 300 taels, even if the yard was a little smaller, it was estimated that it would not be less than 400 taels.
"What do you think?" asked Ren Yazi with a smug face, he didn't believe that Chen Qing didn't like this house.
Chen Qing smiled bitterly with a sad face, "It's good, I like it very much, but although this house is small, there is a sense of delicacy everywhere, I'm afraid that the asking price is not low, I think it's better to forget it."
"Don't mind, the owner hasn't seen it yet, this price is negotiable, he's in a hurry to make a move, maybe he can agree to sell it cheaply" Ren Yazi rolled his eyes and persuaded.
Coincidentally, the owner of the house pushed the door in, his face flashed a cramped, and he opened his mouth to greet Yazi, "I just went to Yaxing to look for you, I didn't want you to look for you first."
"It's not just a coincidence, the buyer came to see the house, and he came over without prior notice," said with a smile.
"It's okay, it just so happens that I also had a relationship with this little brother, and I happened to meet today, why don't you go into the house and talk in detail?" Bolin handed his gaze to Chen Qing.
Chen Qing was a little embarrassed when he saw the scholar in white, but he didn't expect that he was the one who sold the house?
"Wait a minute" Bolin stopped Chen Qing, who was about to leave, and said gently and politely, "Since I am a guest at the door, if I don't go into the house to drink a cup of tea, won't it seem that my master's family has no courtesy?"
Chen Qing was a little embarrassed on his face, but his teeth were excited, and he hurriedly opened his mouth to resolve it, "It turned out that the two of them knew each other, I think it would be better for the two of them to negotiate on their own, anyway, I won't receive less money than I should collect, I'll wait outside."
Bolin stretched out his hand to invite "Please~"
Chen Qing didn't want to refute his face, so he had to take a deep breath and enter the hall. There are several calligraphy and paintings hanging on the four walls of the hall, and the furnishings in the house also show the simple atmosphere of the scholarly door. Chen Qing took a closer look and couldn't help but admire, "This house is so exquisite"
Bolin chuckled lightly and personally brought a copper kettle to boil water, "I live in this house alone, there are more ornaments, and it is also empty, if you move to live, you can remove some of it"
Chen Qing hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop it, "It's too disturbing to boil water on the charcoal fire, and I can't stay for a while, just sit and chat."
Lord Boleyn
Chen Qing saw that he was sincere, so he didn't care, anyway, the matter has passed, what's the use of still worrying about that sadness? It's just embarrassing, "How can you sell this house? It's a pity that such a good house is sold?"
Bolin smiled helplessly, "Yuan also told you that Xiaosheng's ambition is to live the life of idle clouds and wild cranes, and when the time comes, he wants to go out for a walk." But this house is not vacant, if the old house is not repaired from time to time, over time, insects and rats bite I am afraid that it will not be long before it will become an abandoned house."
Chen Qing also nodded in agreement, and persuaded again, "If you are not in a hurry to use the money, you can hire a mother-in-law to tidy up from time to time, and when you come back in the future, you will have a place to live."
"Aren't you going to buy a house?" said Boleyn, looking at him with a smile on his face.
"This is not uncommon, this house ~ I think it's a pity to sell it," Chen Qing said honestly.
"Since you like it, why don't you buy it, this house has been passed down for three generations, and I don't want to waste it in my hands. Just take care of it for me, and when I come back I'll be satisfied," Boleyn glanced at his own house.
Chen Qing hurriedly waved his hand and refused, he only had less than 200 taels of silver, and he couldn't afford it at all. This house is worth at least four hundred taels, maybe more.
"It doesn't matter, you and I are old acquaintances, and I take you as a confidant, good wine can be shared with confidants, and this old house can naturally be gifted, why don't you stay here and leave me a spare room, and wait for me to come back to settle down?" Bolin said with a smile that seemed to be true and fake.
"Besides, I don't live in this house, but I bought it for my sister-in-law to visit relatives in her spare time...... Besides, we have only met a few times, and this gift of housing is absolutely unacceptable" Chen Qing excused himself, no matter whether it was true or not, he couldn't agree to it.
"Huh...... You're still so interesting, forget it, I'm not joking with you, I'm in a hurry to get rid of this house, and I originally asked for 300 taels, but for the sake of you and I know each other, how about giving you 180 taels?" Bolin calculated the silver in Chen Qing's hand and asked for it.
"Ah, what is the way? No, no, no, such a good house is sold at a low price for 300 taels, how can it be sold to me at such a low price?" Chen Qing doesn't like to suffer losses, let alone take advantage of them. Anyway, if you don't have enough money, you can borrow it from Liang Zijun, and the same house is 300 taels, of course, you want to buy this single house.
"I think you will be able to take good care of this old mansion for me, and even if it is sold cheaply, won't I be able to make up the difference in ten years?" Bolin smiled with a calculating expression.
Chen Qing was dumbfounded, it seems that he is not stupid. In order to regulate the price of housing prices, Xia Guo allowed the seller to make up for the loss within ten years, and if the house increased in value, he could go to the village at any time within ten years to find a discount on the grounds of "the original price is shallow". However, the difference between the price and the difference is at most 30% on the difference.
Chen Qing finally negotiated with Bolin for a long time, and sent the furniture ornaments to Chen Qing together, so he insisted on raising the price to 240 taels.
Chen Qing picked up such a big bargain, and it was still like a dream, until he went to Liang Ji to borrow the silver, and he was still in a daze.
After signing and painting at the Zhuanghu Ya Bank, the three of them went to the yamen. There are three people in charge of the main book of household registration, land deed and land deed in Qingping County, and the division of labor is detailed, and there are three or three people lining up in front of each table.
āā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ A set of house foundation: it covers an area of five feet long and two feet long, three feet wide and two feet, with three main houses, one suite, one patio, and two wings, covering an area of three and a half feet. Is the above voluntary on both sides?"
Both of them nodded yes, and then it was a cost-effective deed tax, and they paid the "Zhu Mo Boss Money" to complete the transaction.
One zhang = 3.33 meters and one foot = 0.33 meters Area: 17.31 * 10.65 = 184 square meters (one mu is 10 points per mu, about 666 square meters, which is three and a half points)
After stamping the seal and walking out of the yamen, Chen Qing looked incredulous, "This is it?"
Bolin stared at him with a funny face, "I've never seen someone as sincere as you, really"
Renyazi also sighed, he had never seen such a strange thing when he was so big. Everyone else wants to save, one wants to earn, racking their brains to calculate each other, these two owners are good, the seller is desperately lowering the price, but the buyer can focus on raising the price, these are two fools~
Transferred back to the village house, Chen Qing settled the "deed paper money" and the intermediary fee of Renyazi, and calculated that it would cost 15 taels to add some messy miscellaneous expenses such as Zhu Motouzi, which was more expensive than the deed tax.
4% of the deed tax, Bolin spent 7 taels and 2 yuan, and Chen Qing paid 2 taels and 4 yuan, a total of only 9 taels and 6 yuan. Chen Qing once again lamented that it was too much money to do something.
(The contract signed to buy a house is called "deed paper money.") The yamen also collects money when it is stamped, which is called "Zhu Mo Touzi Qian")
agreed to hand over the house the day after tomorrow, and Chen Qing returned to Liangji Cloth Workshop with the deed. Liu Hengshan looked carefully before confirming that Chen Qing had not been deceived, and couldn't help but sigh and said, "You are really lucky, this old mansion is worth at least 800 taels, and no one is willing to sell it at this price."
"What? This house is worth so much money, so he won't sell it at a loss?" Chen Qing exclaimed with wide eyes.
"Silly baby, it's not good to pick up a bargain? It is estimated that the house is in disrepair, so it will be sold so cheaply, don't underestimate the cost of repair, the overhaul will cost fourteen or five taels a year, and the small whole will cost seven or eight taels of silver, which is not a small expense" Liu Hengshan hurriedly pressed his mouth to remind, there are many people in this shop, and it is enough to pick up such a big bargain and laugh secretly, and it will attract people's eyes to publicize it everywhere.
Chen Qing secretly estimated it, but it was the same, he really didn't take a closer look at it today, but it was okay to look at it in the big picture, even if he had to post a lot of repair fees every year, the house he bought was worth it. I couldn't help but smile silly and said, "When you move to a new house, please come over and eat."
"Cheng" Liu Hengshan agreed with a smile, and urged Chen Qing to hurry home to get the silver, the more than 200 taels borrowed were all from the counter, and he had to return it quickly, otherwise the big shopkeeper would punish him if he asked.
Chen Qing also knew the severity and didn't want to make trouble for Uncle Liu, so he quickly hired a car to go home to get the silver.
