Chapter 796: The Storm Rises
Sixteen years after the integration of Zhenguan, only three-quarters of the time has passed, but the writers of various newspapers are already contented and waiting for the big reward at the end of the year.
There is so much to write about this year, and the sales of every newspaper have gone up a notch.
Zhu Zhishan, as the pillar of "Chang'an Evening News", wrote an article with a pen to make the newspaper firmly sit on the second place in the Tang Dynasty.
"Lao Zhu, I heard that you recently accepted a new concubine? also prepared a house for her in Guiyifang? ”
In the bread new language next to the Chang'an Daily, Wen Daming saw Zhu Zhishan.
As a down-and-out scholar in Jiangnan Province, the two of them have known each other for more than ten years.
However, over the years, each has been its own master, one has acted as a writer in "Datang Daily", and the other is the pillar of "Chang'an Evening News", and they are all very busy.
Today, because Wen Daming happened to come to Chang'an Daily to do business, he met Zhu Zhishan by the way.
In the morning, before it was time to eat, the two of them sat down in the nearby bread Xinyu, drank black tea, and tasted a small biscuit.
"Hehe, Brother Wen, isn't it okay to enjoy it while your body is still okay. It's better than saving a bunch of money in the Datang Royal Money Village at that time, but it's better to see a beautiful woman in the water? As for the house you mentioned, this is also a benefit of our "Chang'an Evening News", the latest issue of the house in Guiyifang, as long as the staff of our newspaper buys it, you can enjoy an additional ninety-five discount, so I bought another set. ”
In front of his friends, Zhu Zhishan couldn't help but sigh.
There is no way, who has not returned to his hometown for many years, and has no chance to show his wealth in front of his parents and fellow villagers, so he can only show his face in front of his former friends.
"Bought another set? So you have more than one suite in Guiyifang? ”
Wen Daming couldn't help but show a surprised expression.
Although the house in Guiyi Fang seems to be very cost-effective compared to the workshop city, the price is not low.
With Wen Daming's income, he didn't dare to make a move at will.
After all, Datang Royal Money has not yet launched a mortgage loan business.
"yes, but it's only three sets. With some people who buy eight sets of ten as soon as they make a move, I can only be regarded as a petty fight. ”
Zhu Zhishan said so, but the smile on his face did not mean to make a fuss at all.
This is actually quite normal.
Just like in later generations, some people drove a BMW home, and when people praised them, they would say, "Hey, I'm just low-allocation, I can take it for seven or eight hundred thousand, it's nothing." ”
Or: "Hey, it's easy to buy a car, but it's troublesome to maintain a car, and the parking fee will cost 10,000 yuan every year, and what maintenance, fuel, tolls, etc., it's like it's convenient for you to walk directly to work." ”
"Or do you have the courage, after I bought a house in Workshop City, I didn't dare to buy it again."
Wen Daming showed a hint of envy on his face.
Of course, as a good friend, jealousy is not jealousy, but that envy is real.
Whether it is envy or jealousy, this is basically an important criterion for measuring whether two people are true friends.
The kind of person who can't see that others are better than himself, and hopes that he can always look down on others, can't be true friends with each other, at most they can be acquaintances.
Only the kind of person whose life is better than his own, who is happy for him, and who also has a trace of envy, can be regarded as the normal relationship between good friends.
"Huh? You bought a house in Workshop City? The expression on Zhu Zhishan's face made Wen Daming a little uncomfortable, "Fortunately, you only bought one set, then I suggest you sell it quickly, and then buy two sets in Guiyifang." ”
Wen Daming's attitude of thinking about his friends opened the mode of persuading Zhu Zhishan to buy Guiyifang.
I don't know, I think Zhu Zhishan is a guy from the sales office of Guiyifang.
Of course, Wen Daming also knew that Zhu Zhishan was kind, so it was difficult to say anything.
However, as the writer of "Datang Daily", it is impossible for Wen Daming to sell the house in the workshop city to buy Guiyi Fang at this time.
"Forget it! That's all I said, Brother Wen, go back and think about it. The house in Workshop City is not cheap, you also bought it with your hard-earned money, and seeing that it has fallen by 30% this year, you have worked for nothing this year! If you can sell it in time and exchange it for a house in Guiyifang, maybe you can make some money in the end. ”
Just as Zhu Zhishan was about to continue, a guy from the Chang'an Evening News ran in from outside in a hurry.
"Zhu Langjun, I finally found you! Big news, big news, you hurry up and go to the workshop city! ”
"Huh? What's the big news? ”
Zhu Zhishan jumped up from his seat like a reflex.
Every time he heard big news, he would jump up excitedly, and then go to the scene to inquire about the situation in person.
"Workshop City? What happened to Workshop City? ”
Wen Daming's face on the side was also tight, and an ominous premonition rose in his heart.
Such sudden big news is a great joy for the newspaper.
But it's often not a good thing for the place or person where the news happens.
It's like when a war suddenly breaks out somewhere in the future, and that's definitely big news.
But for the people on both sides of the war, this is not a good thing.
There is also a major earthquake in a place, or a tsunami or something like that, or a nuclear power plant leak, which is big news, and it makes the newspaper's business even more prosperous.
But for the parties concerned, they don't want such big news at all, and they don't want to become the talk of the people after dinner.
"Check out! There are hundreds of people making trouble there at the sales office of Workshop City, saying that they want to check out! This is news, which has never appeared before, and it is definitely big news. I guess many of the newspapers have already received the news and are rushing to the workshop town. ”
When Zhu Zhishan heard the guy say this, he immediately couldn't stay anymore, and said to Wen Daming: "Brother Wen, I'm really sorry today, I'm going to go to the workshop city to have a look, and I'll do it another day, and go to Ajinomoto to try the new dishes." ”
After finishing speaking, Zhu Zhishan followed the guy out of the door, and then quickly beckoned, called a four-wheeled carriage, and went directly to the workshop city.
If he usually went to the scene to confirm the news, he usually just called a rickshaw, which was more expensive than taking a public carriage, but it was more expensive.
It's like this four-wheeled carriage, which costs several times more than a rickshaw.
"Brother Zhu, wait a minute! I'll go with you! ”
As soon as one of Zhu Zhishan's feet stepped on the four-wheeled carriage, Wen Daming trotted over from behind and got into the carriage with him.
Whether as a writer for "Datang Daily" or as the owner of Workshop City, Wen Daming felt that it was necessary for him to go to see what was going on with today's "check-out news".
……
In the palace of the king of Chu, today's atmosphere is a bit special.
Some clever subordinates are much more low-key in their work, for fear that they will accidentally make some moves and attract the attention of others.
"Lord Wang, this is the case, it's all my fault, I didn't do a good job, you punish me!"
Liu Fang followed Wang Fugui to stand in front of Li Kuan, and lowered his head with a blushing face.
The situation in the workshop city was very good before Li Kuan set out on the expedition.
Now, less than a year later, it has become the current situation.
Originally, Wang Fugui didn't want to bother Li Kuan with the matter of Workshop City, but early this morning, he received the news that someone went to the sales office of Workshop City to make trouble, and immediately realized that this news could no longer be hidden, and he must report to Li Kuan immediately.
However, he did not usher in the imagined storm.
"That's it?"
Li Kuan calmly put down the quill pen in his hand, as if Liu Fang was talking about something very ordinary.
"Lord Wang, just now there is news from the "Datang Daily", all the most famous newspapers in Chang'an City have arranged for the most powerful writers to go to the workshop city for interviews, and there is no need to wait until tomorrow, the people of Chang'an City will know what happened in the sales office of the workshop city."
Wang Fugui thought that Li Kuan did not realize the seriousness of the problem, so he hurriedly reminded him.
"Also, now that these hundreds of people have started to check out, there must be many other people who will follow suit. Some people who bought a house last year, although they may not necessarily propose to check out, will definitely consider selling their houses, so as not to continue to fall, wipe out all the gains of last year, and they will also lose money. ”
After all, Wang Fugui is also an old man who has been with Li Kuan for more than ten years, and some basic business sense still exists.
In his opinion, today's check-out incident cannot be regarded as a simple matter, and it will lead to a series of serial incidents behind it.
"It was impossible to check out! When I first bought a house, it was written in black and white, and it was very clear that there was no clause in which clause to check out after the house price fell. Besides, if the house price falls and we have to check out, then the house price will rise, is it possible that they will make up the difference for us? ”
Wang Fugui may have heard about checking out for the first time in his life, but Li Kuan had heard a lot in his previous life.
Whether it was the financial crisis in 08 or the low housing prices around 2014, it was repeatedly reported that the sales department of a certain community was smashed by guests who asked to check out.
Housing prices are falling, and people who bought houses before are going to come out and make trouble, which is almost unreasonable, but it is a common news.
If you take buying a house as an investment, you must be prepared to lose money.
Why haven't you seen a few people who have lost money in the stock market and are clamoring to return their money?
"Lord Wang, the truth is this, but these people don't reason with us! Especially the group of customers who bought houses in March and April this year, they have lost 30% of their money at present, and according to the current momentum, they may continue to lose, which can touch their bottom line, even if they don't die, they will make trouble. ”
Wang Fugui explained with a bitter face.
He is now worried that Li Kuan will have a hard time with these check-outs, which will fulfill the wishes of many people.
It is estimated that the two Weidu families will wake up laughing when they sleep.
"These people who checked out, gathered today to come to Workshop City to check out, must be organized. Now it is necessary to find out whether these organizers are spontaneous members of the home buyers, or whether other nobles are behind the motives of the agitation. If it's the latter, then it's not that simple. ”
Wu Meiniang on the side is used to thinking about problems from the perspective of conspiracy theories.
In her opinion, she is very restrained in the matter of selling houses in Workshop City this year.
Li Kuan was not at home, and she didn't want to find trouble for the Chu Wangfu casually.
However, if some people really think that the Chu Wangfu is easy to bully, then the situation is completely different.
Whoever reaches out must cut it off decisively.
In this way, the person who checks out checks out for nothing more than the fact that the price of the house has fallen now, so he wants to check out. From tomorrow, all the newly sold houses in Workshop City will be adjusted back to the prices at the beginning of the year. ”
Li Kuan just listened to Liu Fang's introduction to the difference between the houses in the workshop city and the Guiyi Fang, and he was not optimistic about the future of the Guiyi Fang.
Although adjusting the selling price of houses in Workshop City will definitely bring sales to freezing point in a short period of time, so what does it matter?
Guiyi Fang has recently begun to hand over the house, and he doesn't believe that these people can live comfortably for more than a year after moving in.
"Lord Wang, although this method can block the mouth of the check-out person, it can't fundamentally solve it."
Wu Meiniang's words spoke out of Wang Fugui's heart.
"That's right, unless we tentatively set up the construction of the workshop city, otherwise the more houses in the backlog, the more difficult it will be to sell them at a good price."
Wang Fugui obviously also felt that Li Kuan's method did not seem to be as amazing as usual.
"So what to do? Could it be that you really let them check out? Although the house of more than a hundred people, there is not much money; Even if all the houses sold this year are returned, it is not a big problem. However, this head cannot be opened, this is a matter of principle! ”
With the continuous development of Datang's economy, whether it is a workshop city or other houses, more and more will appear on the market.
If you have to check out as soon as the house price falls, then it is actually not a good thing for Datang.
Because this means that house prices will continue to rise, and everyone has no worries about buying a house.
In this way, in a few decades, Datang's house will become an existence that few people can afford.
At that point, the situation is completely out of control.
This is not what Li Kuan wants to see.
"Business is business, and it makes sense for you to say that, Lord Wang."
Wu Meiniang woke up quickly, and immediately grasped the key point in Li Kuan's words.
For a long time, the various workshops in the Chu Wangfu have been doing business and have liked to set some rules.
Although "Datang Law" has been launched for more than 20 years, many of the terms in it are not perfect.
In this case, it is actually very important to agree on some rules for various businesses through the workshops of the Chu Prince's Mansion that everyone abides by.
"Fugui, I won't go to Workshop City! You go over and deal with it, anyway, don't be afraid of making trouble, we don't care about the loss, whatever they do! If anyone dares to take this opportunity to wreak havoc, you don't have to be polite! ”
"Lord Wang, my subordinates understand, go to Workshop City now!"
Wang Fugui saw that Li Kuan's mind had been determined, and he no longer insisted.
Li Kuan is not afraid of someone making trouble, what else is he afraid of?
Housing prices follow the market, buy and leave, this is the most basic contract rule.
If you return the money and check out as soon as you buy a house, it is obvious that the principle of contract will be seriously undermined.
This will have a very bad impact on the development of Datang.
……
"Your Majesty, something seems to have happened in Workshop City!"
The news that the Chang'an City Newspaper heard the news, how could the Baiqi Division not know at all?
Just when Zhu Zhishan and the others were heading to the workshop city, Li Zhong came to Li Shimin's side and reported the matter to him.
All news related to Li Kuan must be raised by a few levels.
This is the experience that Li Zhong has summed up over the years.
"What's wrong? Could it be that the house collapsed? ”
Li Shimin's face didn't look good, and he was going to find a time to go to the workshop city to have a look recently, but now something happened?
"No, there is no problem with the quality of the house, the problem is that the house price has fallen, and some people are clamoring to check out, these people are dragging their families, and in order to strengthen the momentum, they all went to the sales office of the workshop city and asked them to check out. At the moment, it is probably crowded with people. ”
Hearing Li Zhong say this, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief.
Although this question seems to be a bit troublesome, it is the Chu Wangfu that is in trouble, not him Li Shimin.
"It's a bit of a trick! When many people buy a house, they may have emptied their family savings, and now it has suddenly fallen so much, and it is normal for them to not accept it. However, this check-out opening can't be opened, and there is no business in the world that can be returned if the price has fallen, if this is the case, it will be chaotic. ”
Li Shimin is worthy of being Li Shimin, and he saw the key point of the problem at once.
In fact, many developers in later generations were scared of their brains, and finally returned the money, and they did not dare to return the money in the name of falling housing prices.
Instead, find a name and say that the house you delivered is different from the original agreement due to various reasons, so guests can choose to check out or refund the difference.
After all, no one dares to easily open a price and check out.
With such a "fig leaf" there, the nature of the event can be changed.
Not only can the problem be solved, but also the envy of peers will not be aroused.
"His Royal Highness the King of Chu has always liked to face difficulties, and his subordinates also estimate that he will not agree to check out the person who bought the house. Now that the Chang'an County Police Department and the Wannian County Police Department are all His Royal Highness the King of Chu's people, if these people are really annoyed, His Royal Highness the King of Chu will have countless ways to clean them up at will. ”
"If you really use official means to deal with ordinary people, then you will fall behind!"
Li Shimin obviously did not agree with Li Zhong's words.
However, he was also a little curious about how Li Kuan would solve this trouble!
……
"Haha! It's so exciting, it's so exciting! ”
In the eldest grandson's mansion, the eldest grandson Chong listened to the report of his subordinates and couldn't help laughing!
I just cooperated with the Weidu family, and I heard such a good news, God really helped me.
"Lang Jun, no matter how the Chu Wangfu deals with these people who check out, the house in Workshop City is finished! In the past, it relied on those series of advantages to stimulate the sale of houses in the workshop city, but now that there is a comparison of Guiyi Fang, those benefits are very bland. On the contrary, it is the disadvantage of the bad location, which is infinitely magnified. ”
"Yes, but the outcome is good for us! When the house we developed in cooperation with the two Weidu families starts to sell, it will definitely be even more popular. ”
Changsun Chong seemed to see countless gold and silver coins moving towards his treasury.
Without the opponent of Workshop City, with the strength of the Wei family, the Du family, and the eldest grandson family in Chang'an City, no one can really pose a threat to them.
The largest real estate developer in Chang'an City, they are sitting firmly in this position.
"Chang'an Daily has already sent a writer to Workshop City, and when the newspaper goes on sale this evening, the people of Chang'an City will know the news. Even if the Chu Wangfu successfully solves this matter, many people will have one more concern when they buy a house in the workshop city in the future. ”
"I will personally go to Chang'an Daily in person, and if I want to increase the scale of printing today, I must let the people of Chang'an City know about this matter before it gets dark."
Something that can make the Chu Wangfu uncomfortable, Changsun Chong will be very comfortable in his heart.
Especially before Li Kuan returned to Beijing this year, the eldest grandson Wuji told the eldest grandson Chong about his grievances with the Chu Palace.
This kind of grievance, which can almost be said to be endless, basically broke the foundation of the harmony and cooperation between Changsun Chong and the Chu Wangfu.
Even if Li Kuan didn't know about these things, the eldest grandson family didn't dare to take this risk.
……
"Check out!"
"We're checking out!"
"Pay me back my hard-earned money!"
"Deception! It's all deception! I want to check out and get my money back! ”
The sales office of the workshop city ushered in a long-lost hot scene.
However, none of the guys in the sales office were happy for today's lively scene.
"Be quiet, be quiet!"
After Wang Fugui came out of the Chu Palace, he already had an idea in his heart, but he didn't panic.
Now when I see the black crowd in front of me, I don't care.
After all, he followed Li Kuan back from Goguryeo and saw the tragic situation on the battlefield.
The scale in front of him can't put pressure on him at all.
"Starting tomorrow, the price of all houses in the workshop city will be increased by three percent, if you want to buy a house at a preferential price, you must hurry up today, after this village, there will be no such shop!"
As soon as Wang Fugui's words came out, he confused the people below who defended their rights.
What's going on?
We're here to check out, why do we look like we're here to buy a house?
"The house in our workshop city, how is the quality of construction, you have all seen it, just that sewer, there can be a four-wheeled carriage in it, is this comparable to other houses? The so-called penny is worth the goods, I hope everyone must recognize the reality clearly and not be deceived by the appearance of nothingness. ”
Wang Fugui saw that he had suppressed the scene at the beginning, and his heart was even more settled.
"The housing prices in Workshop City will definitely rise in the future. For example, at this preferential price now, if you don't buy one more set, you will definitely regret it in the future......"
In the sales office, there was an eerie silence, only Wang Fugui's voice rippled in the sky.
