Chapter 381: The Battle for the Small Courtyard
Of course, Jiang Ping would not let Zhang Chenlin face such a situation alone, and immediately stepped forward to greet Old Lady Feng with a smile: "Grandma Feng, why are you here?"
Seeing that Jiang Ping was also here, Old Lady Feng's face showed a trace of an unnatural smile and said, "Xiao Jiang is also back, just right, I don't have to call you again, it's enough to just run once." β
Jiang Ping first threw a comforting look at Zhang Chenlin, and then said with a smile: "Grandma Feng, what's so important, do you want to go there yourself?
Old Madam Feng shook her head and said, "This is a big deal, it's better to make it clear in person." β
"Nacheng, you say. Jiang Ping said seriously: "I'll listen." β
It is also strange to say that after seeing Jiang Ping, Zhang Chenlin's mood immediately calmed down a lot. It seems that no matter how big things happen, as long as he is around, there is no need to worry. Seeing that Jiang Ping was negotiating with Mrs. Feng, Zhang Chenlin naturally stood beside him without saying a word, like a gentle and virtuous little wife.
Old Madam Feng was also a little embarrassed, and paused for a moment before saying to Jiang Ping: "Xiao Jiang, I told Xiao Zhang just now, when the lease period is up, I can't lend you the house anymore." β
"Ah, why is that?" Jiang Ping said with some surprise: "Is the rent too low? It doesn't matter, we can add money!"
Speaking from his heart, Jiang Ping likes this small courtyard in Huanhua Lane. It is now very difficult to find such a detached place to live in Sioux City, close to the city center. What's more, there is such a gentle and considerate neighbor as Zhang Chenlin, and the surrounding environment is so good. It can also give the hot pot a relatively large activity space. This qiΔ made Jiang Ping reluctant to move away.
So I heard Mrs. Feng say that she couldn't continue to lend the house to herself. Jiang Ping's first reaction was to continue to stay even if the rent was increased.
Listening to Jiang Ping's words, Mrs. Feng also said with a sad face: "Xiao Jiang, you have lived here for almost a year." I also know that you are a good young man and are really willing to continue to lend the house to you and Xiao Zhang. It's just that...... It really doesn't work!"
Mrs. Feng's words made Jiang Ping understand that this was probably not a matter of rent. Seeing the disappointment on Zhang Chenlin's face beside him, Jiang Ping decided that he must try his best to let her continue to live here.
So Jiang Ping said to Mrs. Feng sincerely: "Grandma Feng." I really like the environment, can you tell me why you can't continue to lend me the house? As long as there is even the slightest possibility, I will try to redeem it. β
Mrs. Feng has always had a good impression of Jiang Ping, and when she saw that he was so sincere, she told the truth: "I won't tell you anything, I'm going to go abroad with my son, so I plan to sell this yard." Now that the buyer has been found, so ...... I can't help you. β
"Are you going to sell this yard?" Jiang Ping asked subconsciously, and then a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind. I couldn't help but feel ecstasy.
Based on Jiang Ping's understanding of the future, he knew that the area of Huanhua Lane would be built into a waterfront recreation area in the future. And these yards in Huanhua Lane. will also be retained. And the environment here is originally good, coupled with the construction of the surrounding area in the later period, these yards in Huanhua Lane are also very popular.
In the year of the Olympic Games, the wealthy people of Suzhou City and even the whole province wanted to have an exquisite courtyard here, where they could enjoy the beauty of the surroundings and the convenience of living in the city center.
However, at that time, the yard of Huanhua Lane had risen to a sky-high price, and it was so scarce that even if you had money, you couldn't buy Cheng dΓΉ. Jiang Ping never thought that there would be such a good opportunity in front of him, and of course he would not let it go.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ping also showed joy on his face, and said to Mrs. Feng with a smile: "Grandma Feng, why don't you tell me if you want to sell this yard, I want to buy it too!"
"Do you want to buy it too?" Old Lady Feng glanced at Jiang Ping suspiciously, then shook her head with a smile and said, "Don't joke with my old woman, this yard is not cheap!"
It's no wonder that Mrs. Feng would say this, although the house in Huanhua Lane is not as expensive as it will be a few years later, but after all, it is a single-family yard close to the city center, and the price will definitely not be cheap.
The buyer's offer to Mrs. Feng was a full 580,000 yuan, which was already more expensive than a new three-bedroom and two-hall house in the city. And Jiang Ping is just a young man less than twenty years old, and he said that he wanted to buy this courtyard, which naturally made people feel unbelievable.
In fact, if it weren't for Mrs. Feng's understanding of Jiang Ping and her belief in his character, she would definitely think that Jiang Ping was deliberately making trouble.
Seeing that Mrs. Feng didn't believe her words, Jiang Ping was not ambiguous, and immediately said, "Grandma Feng, I'm not joking with you. I will also pay whatever price the other party offers, we can go to the law firm to go through the formalities, and I will definitely not cheat you. β
Seeing that Jiang Ping was serious, Old Lady Feng was also a little shaken, and couldn't help but look at him and ask, "Are you serious?"
Jiang Ping didn't talk nonsense, nodded at the other party and said, "When the money arrives in your account, you will know that I am serious!"
Speaking from her heart, Mrs. Feng is emotionally inclined to Jiang Ping, hoping that he can buy this courtyard. Because the other buyer looked like a nouveau riche, Mrs. Feng, who was born in a scholarly family, didn't like it very much.
Since Jiang Ping was so serious, Old Lady Feng couldn't help but whisper: "I negotiated with that person for 580,000." β
Jiang Ping immediately said simply: "Sell it to me, I'll pay 600,000!"
As soon as Jiang Ping reported this number, Zhang Chenlin was taken aback. Zhang Chenlin knew that Jiang Ping had just bought two new houses in Lakeside Garden a few years ago, and now he was going to buy this yard again, which was too expensive.
Afraid that Jiang Ping's money would not be enough, Zhang Chenlin hurriedly pulled him and whispered: "600,000 yuan, do you have enough money, if it is not enough, I still have a little money in the bank......"
Without waiting for Zhang Chenlin to finish speaking, Jiang Ping smiled and comforted her: "Don't worry about this, it's okay!"
Jiang Ping's confident appearance not only made Zhang Chenlin feel at ease, but also made Mrs. Feng dare not underestimate him anymore, but confirmed to Jiang Ping seriously: "Xiao Jiang, you're not joking, are you? I won't take advantage of you, and it will be the same for how much I sell to that person, it's still 580,000." β
Jiang Ping smiled and said, "That's really good." β
Old Lady Feng smiled and nodded to Jiang Ping and said, "Speaking from the heart, I also want you two to be the new owners of this courtyard." That's a cheap 20,000 yuan, just when I give you a gift for your future marriage, hehe!"
Mrs. Feng is also a little old, and of course she can see it very thoroughly in terms of human feelings. She had already seen that the relationship between the young tenants was not ordinary, which is why she said this.
Jiang Ping's face was thick enough, of course he would not be embarrassed, but thanked Mrs. Feng with a smile: "Then I will thank you in advance, Grandma Feng." β
And Zhang Chenlin was so ashamed that his face was flushed, and he didn't dare to look at Mrs. Feng more when he hid behind Jiang Ping.
Old Mrs. Feng was also a simple person, and said to Jiang Ping with a smile: "Since this is the case, I will call the previous buyers and tell them that I will not sell." β
Of course, Jiang Ping's words were in Jiang Ping's heart, and he also said with a smile: "Cheng, it's too late today, since this is decided, we will go through the formalities tomorrow." β
Old Mrs. Feng nodded, dialed a number, and said politely: "Is it Mr. Wang?" I'm Feng Juan, yes, I want to tell you, I don't want to sell that small yard...... No, no, I know you want to, but ...... What? You give 650,000?"
Hearing the other party's words, Old Lady Feng also showed a hint of hesitation. After all, the difference between 650,000 and 580,000 is 70,000 yuan. Although Mrs. Feng's family background is good, she can't completely ignore such a large sum of money.
Ever since the introduction of the Xuankong Jue, Jiang Ping's sense of hearing has been much sharper than that of ordinary people. After listening attentively, I did hear that the other party offered 650,000 yuan, not Mrs. Feng who was talking about it.
Jiang Ping didn't hesitate at all, and immediately said to Mrs. Feng: "I will also give 650,000!"
The other party also heard Jiang Ping's words, and immediately said loudly on the other end of the phone: "700,000!"
Jiang Ping said without showing weakness: "I will also give 700,000!"
"Seven hundred and fifty thousand!"
"800,000 ......"
Jiang Ping was bent on buying this small courtyard. After all, this place not only has a high investment value, but also carries many beautiful memories between him and Zhang Chenlin, Jiang Ping really doesn't want this courtyard to fall into the hands of others.
And the other party seems to be bound to this yard, and he is also very wealthy, and keeps raising the price on the phone. In just a few minutes, the price of this yard has risen from 580,000 yuan at the beginning to a full 1 million.
Today's Jiang Ping can be regarded as having some capital, and he does not show weakness in the bidding. After all, this yard will rise to more than five million in a few years, and now it is nothing to go out to one million. What's more, this courtyard also witnessed the process of Jiang Ping and Zhang Chenlin getting acquainted, knowing each other, and falling in love, even if he lost money, he would buy it.
The other party also seemed to feel that Jiang Ping would not back down lightly, nor did he continue to raise the price, but told Mrs. Feng that he would rush over immediately and prepare to solve the matter in person.
Mrs. Feng hung up the phone and told Jiang Ping the news with some embarrassment.
Jiang Ping felt that it didn't matter, anyway, he was determined to buy this courtyard.
Zhang Chenlin hesitated and persuaded Jiang Ping to give up his original plan. She didn't want Jiang Ping to spend such a large amount of money for herself, and she would offend a person who was obviously wealthy.
However, Jiang Ping knew Zhang Chenlin very well, and knew what she wanted to say just by looking at her expression, and immediately said softly to Zhang Chenlin: "This yard has so many good memories of us, I must buy it!" (To be continued......)
