Chapter 058: Buying a House
On the west side of Lam Tin Estate, Kwun Tong Tsui Ping Road, at the entrance of Nuan Yuk Yuen.
This is the first high-end elevator apartment in the Lantian area, which has been delivered in 70 years, as for why it has to be related to Lantian in Chang'an, it is up to the developer Hang Lung.
Zhang Heng didn't know about Hang Lung, a real estate company, but he had seen its listing announcement when he opened a newsstand, and he knew about this Nuan Yuyuan because Aunt He's daughter He Jie currently lives here.
"Xia Di, Xiao Heng, you are here. A tall young woman with red lips and phoenix eyes walked out of the iron gate of the compound and greeted them with a smile, a large wave swaying gently with her steps, and a fragrance came from afar.
I saw He Jie at the door of his house that day, Zhang Heng was in a hurry, and he didn't look at her carefully at all, but when he saw it now, he couldn't help but secretly praise that this sister next door is really very capital.
"Sister He. He and Xia Di shouted at the same time.
He Jie smiled at Zhang Heng and took Xia Di's hand, "Look at you, your hands are rough like this, I will bring a hand cream back, my old Meng brought it back from Tokyo, I have used it, and the effect is very good." ”
"By the way, these two belong to Uncle Chen's family, hello. She didn't forget to say hello to the Chen family siblings, the two nodded a little shyly and panickedly, and didn't speak.
"Come in with me, it's very safe to come in because you have to be picked up by a guest. He Jie swayed her slender waist, held her head high and nodded slightly at the security guard standing at the door, and led them into the community.
Entering the door is a garden with an area of more than 100 square meters, she pointed to the two flowers and trees with red clouds in the sky and said: "This is a beauty tree, Hang Lung specially flown it from Brazil, and it is the only one in Xiangjiang!"
Behind the garden stand in a semi-arc shape five 12-story buildings, which are all the buildings of Nuan Yuyuan.
He Jie told them that the land was originally occupied by several old-fashioned tenement buildings, and that Hang Lung bought the tenement buildings and bought a small piece of wasteland next to it from the government, which was integrated to build the most upscale community in Lantian at present.
The ground floor gate of the residential building has state-of-the-art intercom equipment to communicate with the residents upstairs, and the security guards also use this to inform the residents that there is a visit.
Use the key to open the door on the ground floor, and after entering, there is a small Lobby, two elevators are facing each other, He Jie pressed the button, walked into an open elevator, and beckoned them to be careful and fast forward.
Zhang Heng half-hugged and half-pushed Xia Di into the elevator, she saw shadows all around, she was startled, and her body involuntarily approached Zhang Heng.
The same is true for the sisters and brothers who cowered in the back, Zhen Ning was calmer, and kept looking left and right, while Yumei did not squint, and pulled her slightly wrinkled thin coat hard.
He Jie's eyes swept over a few people, and found that Zhang Heng was leisurely and complacent, and there was nothing unusual, and he couldn't help but praise secretly in his heart:
"It is worthy of being a person who has made a lot of money, although I don't know how much he earned the second time, but since he wants to move out and rent a house, there should still be fifty or sixty thousand.
It's just a pity that he made a lot of money for the first time.
The most distressing thing for the poor is that they have no capital, and it is useless to have a great opportunity. ”
They got off the elevator on the 9th floor, through the Lobby, a slightly curved corridor connecting the five families on this floor, and walked to room 901, where He Jie rang the doorbell.
A well-dressed woman opened the door and glanced haughtily at a few people, "What are you doing here?"
"I made an appointment with your husband to bring the tenant to see the house. He Jie said with a smile.
"It's Xiao He who is here, wife, you let them come in and rent a house. A man in the room said.
The woman frowned and hesitated for a while, turned around and went in without speaking, He Jie smiled awkwardly and beckoned everyone to go in.
Zhang Heng pulled Xia Di in, and the Yumei sisters and brothers looked at the smooth floor tiles in the house, reluctant to go in, so Zhang Heng had to let them guard at the door.
A tall and thin man inside was muttering to a woman, his gaze swept over He Jie's face and stopped, then glanced at Zhang Heng and Xia Di casually, and said with a smile: "These two want to rent a house?"
"This is my younger brother and sister in Lam Tin Estate, although they are not relatives, but they are more enthusiastic than relatives. He Jie hugged Xia Di and said with a smile, "They want to move out, and it just so happened that I heard you say you were moving in the elevator last time, so I brought them over." ”
"We don't rent, we only sell!" the woman said suddenly.
The atmosphere in the house suddenly became awkward, He Jie looked at the man inquiringly, the man looked at her, and then looked at his own woman with a straight face, scratching her ears and cheeks: "Didn't you say that you would rent it, why do you want to sell the house again?"
"There are too many vixens here, sell them without worry!" the woman sat down on the cloth sofa in a huff.
He Jie's face turned white all of a sudden, Zhang Heng gently pulled Xia Di, Xia Di immediately hugged He Jie's waist and whispered to her.
"This lady, you've watched too much "Liao Zhai", be careful to spread it, your house is not easy to sell!" Zhang Heng said lightly.
The woman rolled her eyes and looked at him, and just wanted to speak, the man sat next to her and whispered persuasion, and after a while, the man looked up and said, "Xiao He, I'm sorry, we don't rent anymore, the rent is not enough to pay the monthly mortgage of our new house, it is better to sell it directly for cash." ”
"That's right. He Jie had a faint frustration on his face, but he still maintained his demeanor and thanked him, and was about to pull the two out, Zhang Heng asked, "How much does it cost?"
The woman grabbed the words: "1036 square feet, 60,000 yuan, no counteroffer!"
"1,036 feet!" Xia Di exclaimed.
"1036 feet?" Zhang Heng shook his head repeatedly.
"Well, if you can't afford it, please leave, this is not the place for you. The woman looked at Xia Di's clothes and said disdainfully.
"Xiao Heng," He Jie took Zhang Heng's hand and whispered, "The money you gave my mother last time, you can use it first, I don't need it." ”
"Thank you, Sister He, no. Zhang Heng gently shook her soft little hand, smiled at her, turned his face to the woman and said, "It's not even 100 square meters, I think this house is too small!"
"Haha! The hairy boy is talking big, more than 1,000 feet is still too small, have you ever seen a house bigger than this in your life?" the woman laughed, and the man frowned dissatisfied.
"Uh. Zhang Heng really couldn't refute it for a while, he had lived in a villa of 300 square meters, but that was in his previous life.
"Xiao Heng, I see that this place is beautifully decorated, and the area is very large, otherwise, let's buy here." Xia Di looked at him expectantly.
"Can you show us the rooms?" Zhang Heng said lightly to the man, he was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he got up and took the two of them to see the room.
The woman sat sneering and waiting for them to perform.
A master bedroom with bathroom, two secondary bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen, a living room dining room, and a large balcony with a view of Lantian Mountain, fully furnished, but no appliances.
The man told them that the electrical appliances had been packed and shipped to the new house in Kowloon Tong, and Zhang Heng congratulated him on moving to the new house, and reminded him not to sell the house in Kowloon Tong again. The man was stunned for a moment, looked at Zhang Heng several times, and realized that he was really not joking.
Of course, Zhang Heng is sincere, Kowloon Tong will be one of the famous wealthy areas in Xiangjiang in the future, and after 30 years, there will be no house less than 5,001 square feet.
"I think it's very good!" Xia Di looked around and answered Zhang Heng's inquiry confirmatively.
Yes, if you think it's easy to hold it, I was going to rent a house for a year or two, and then buy a seaside villa directly, so let's buy a small house now.
"Xiao Heng, you wait for me. He Jie hurriedly walked out.
"What are you going to do?" Zhang Heng grabbed her.
"I went upstairs to get the money. ”
"Thank you, Sister He, no, I have this. Zhang Heng took out a checkbook from his pocket, which was the cash checkbook he had gone to Standard Chartered before.
He Jie took it and looked at it in a daze, when the couple was also surprised, Zhang Heng walked to the phone: "I'm sorry, I'll call my lawyer." ”
When Jiexi arrived, Zhang Heng, including Yumei's sister and brother, had been drinking tea in the living room for more than an hour, and the smiling hostess was waiting for them diligently.
"Let me tell you, my legal fee is 30 Hong Kong dollars per hour, and you might as well hire a professional real estate lawyer for only one-third of the price. As soon as she entered the door, Jiexi said with a big grin.
Seeing that it was a foreign female lawyer, and the price was so high, the male and female hosts looked at Zhang Heng several times in surprise.
"No problem. Zhang Heng smiled faintly.
"The time spent on the journey back and forth is taken into account, as well as the cost of gasoline and the cost of vehicle damage. Jessie looked at him slyly.
Except for Zhang Heng, everyone in the room opened their mouths wide.
"OK, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and prepare the contract, we will go to the real estate office today to complete all the formalities. Zhang Heng said impatiently.
"Yes, who made you the boss. Jeuncy took out the board contract from her briefcase, asked the landlord to read the real estate contract, and copied it.
Two hours later, all the formalities were completed, and a group of people returned to Nuan Yuyuan, and the landlord and his wife still needed three days to hand over the house, and Zhang Heng told them to put the key in He Jie.
"Xiao Heng, let's eat dinner at my house, I'm alone today, it's not in the way. He Jie said.
"No, when we move in, we will inevitably come to your house as a guest, and we will go back first today. Zhang Heng thanked her and said goodbye to her.
On the way back to Lantian Estate, Xia Di stuffed the document bag back into Zhang Heng's hand, "Xiao Heng, your house, the deed is still for you to keep." ”
"Who said my house?" Zhang Heng deliberately glared, "The name is Xia Di." ”
When registering the property owner before, because Zhang Heng was under the age of 16, it was troublesome to notarize and other matters, so he simply used Xia Di's identity paper to register, although she was not yet an adult, but she could partially bear legal responsibility if she was over 16 years old, such as becoming an owner.
Xia Di looked at him aggrievedly, his eyes were about to rise, Zhang Heng hurriedly smiled: "I'm joking, this house belongs to Xia Di and Zhang Heng, and it is the common property of the two of us!"
"Okay, then I'll put it away. Xia Di burst into tears and smiled, quietly clutching the document bag, walking briskly.
