Chapter 28, Roots
Li Dong was stunned, and then pointed at Huang Yingying and cried and laughed: "Sister Ying, you are a typical example of being cheap and selling well, or you are a disguised deaf." ”
Huang Yingying glanced at him and chuckled, "So what? ”
"It didn't work, but Sister Ying, is the business we took from today considered after our partnership?"
"Of course, I'm just about to tell you that I've had a meeting with the other shareholders this morning, and they have no objection to the partnership plan we have negotiated."
Li Dong said that the feeling was good and raised a glass to Huang Yingying to express his gratitude, Huang Yingying smiled and asked why he wanted to thank her, he said that the reason why those shareholders responded so quickly and positively must be the result of Sister Ying's bitter heart's heart.
Huang Yingying said that it was and accepted his toast as a matter of course, but he had to toast her three glasses, Li Dong said okay without hesitation, and after toasting, he asked what business "Shengshi" had contacted this morning, and Huang Yingying asked him why he knew about this.
Li Dong said that "the building near the water is the first to get the moon", since he has been involved in the auction industry, then he has to make full use of the existing conditions to tap the potential, if there are good things in the auction, it is better to get it first, and he now has some economic strength.
Huang Yingying thought deeply of Li Dong's statement, and she and her shareholders had done this before, so she patiently introduced him to the more than 30 businesses, and "Shengshi" had not yet decided to take over among them.
Most of the auction items in these businesses are ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum and other medicinal materials, but the quality cannot be compared with the one Li Dong sold to "Baoyuantang", let alone the auction plant.
Among the other lots, the main ones are houses and jewelry, both of which give Li Dong ideas, and the jewelry goes without saying, hoping that there are treasures like the fire spirit red fei, and the house is to facilitate the storage of raw stones and daily cultivation, one of the courtyards is quite in line with the requirements, so he asked Huang Yingying about the specific situation of the courtyard.
"You want to buy it?" Huang Yingying asked in surprise.
"I have this idea." Li Dong does not deny it.
"Do you plan to settle in Huajing, or do you plan to resell it to make the difference?"
"I don't have any plans to change hands, as for settling down, I can't say anything for the time being, I just want to find a foothold in the capital first."
Huang Yingying chuckled and said, "Anyway, I quite support you buying a house in Huajing." ”
"Why?"
"Well, I said that you decided for yourself what happened to you, so why did you ask me instead?"
"Hehe, Sister Ying, I'm just joking with you, okay, let's introduce the situation of the courtyard."
"You better go and see it for yourself, we haven't taken this courtyard yet, we only made an appointment to continue to negotiate in the afternoon, if you really plan to buy it, then you and the head of the household will discuss it privately."
"It's fine."
On the way back to the auction house, Li Dong used his mobile phone to surf the Internet to learn about the real estate market in Jingshui District, the area where the courtyard house is located, and met with the head of the household at about half past three in the afternoon, explaining that he wanted to see the house first.
This courtyard house is a small apartment in the same category, only more than 300 square meters, and the main price of the household is 23 million Chinese yuan, which is about 66,000 yuan per square meter, which belongs to the middle and upper reaches of the price in Jingshui District.
Li Dong liked this house and thought that the price was reasonable, but he was sure that there was still room for a significant reduction, so he asked the householder if he could lower it further, and the latter insisted that at least this price could not be lower.
Li Dong smiled and asked instead: "Sir, China's contract law stipulates that the seller has the obligation to truthfully inform the buyer of the situation of the subject matter of the transaction, are you sure that there is nothing missing from the previous notification to me?" ”
The head of the household was stunned for a moment, and his heart was empty, but he also forced himself to calm down and said: "My house is also a hundred years old, and there are many things that have happened to it, I can't tell you all the trivial things, right?" ”
"That's not necessary." Li Dong waved his hand and said, and then changed his tone: "But in the past three years, you have to ask for it, of course, you don't need to be trivial, what are the big or slightly bigger things?" ”
The head of the household stared at Li Dong for a few seconds and stubbornly gritted his teeth and said that he had told the truth and that there was nothing missing.
Li Dong smiled and asked: "Sir, if I am not mistaken, since the winter of the previous year for more than a year, you and your family seem to have been unlucky, the development of the errand is not smooth, the business is always at a loss, and the person who has nothing to do is riddled with minor illnesses from time to time, isn't it?" ”
The head of the household was stunned and stammered, "You, how do you know, you know?" ”
Li Dong looked around, and then said with an unfathomable look: "As soon as I entered this mansion, I felt that the atmosphere here was not right, and when I saw you in the gray and black hall, with a dark atmosphere, it would not be difficult to deduce the reason why you wanted to sell this century-old mansion." ”
"Is it really because that old man Hanako froze to death in front of my house in the cold winter of that year?" The expression of the head of the household was very nervous.
"Yes and no."
"What does this mean, sir?" The head of the household was puzzled, but he respected him because of Li Dong's unfathomability.
Li Dong said that the cause of his family's bad luck was indeed because the old man named Hanako froze to death in front of his house late at night, but this is not the real root cause, because such accidents also happen all over the world from time to time, and under normal circumstances, they will not harm the surrounding people.
The head of the household hurriedly asked why he would harm his own family again this time, and he had also invited several mages to come and practice the method, but why did it not have any effect at all?
Li Dong said, "That's because you didn't tell the mage the truth, they don't know the real roots. ”
"What is the truth? No, I don't. The head of the household was at a loss.
Li Dong asked: "Let me ask you a few questions, and you will be able to find the root cause from it." ”
"Hmm."
"That old Hanako has been begging in this area, right?"
"That's right."
"Besides your family, the neighbors will give him some alms, right?"
"Uh, ah, is that because of this?!"
"Isn't that enough of a lack of kindness?"
“”
"Also, your wife and a pair of children have abused him, right?"
Although the head of the household was speechless, he was already sweating profusely, because what Li Dong said was all the truth, he really didn't know how Li Dong, a person who had never known him, knew so clearly, could it really be a master, higher than the mages he had invited before, he was shocked and saw hope at the same time, and hurriedly asked him for advice on the way to solve it, and said in his heart, he really didn't want to sell the inheritance left by his ancestors.
