Chapter 57: The Courtyard of Blue Bricks and Black Tiles
Since Su Qingtong talked to Qinglian about the space house, he has taken the matter of buying a house to heart.
After all, she has lived in G City for decades in her last life, and she also knows the situation here, but it is a little difficult to find a blue brick house that is larger than the space courtyard, and I don't know if I can meet it.
During the summer vacation, Su Qingtong came to G City alone, which was clearly a city that she hadn't seen for several years, but because of the history of several decades, today's architectural style is somewhat different from later, giving her a sense of vicissitudes.
The community where she later lived is still a barren mountain, with a few scattered houses, like a remote village.
Su Qingtong wants to buy a blue brick and black tile house, so he can only go back to the old city to find it, at this time, it is the era of the rapid development of G City, foreign workers flock to it, and the rapid development of urban construction is the most prosperous and fashionable metropolis in China.
Su Qingtong has been looking for a suitable house in the streets and alleys for many days, and at this time she understands the importance of the profession of real estate agent.
On this day, I had just finished breakfast at the breakfast shop on the street, and when I was paying, I found out that I had encountered a pickpocket.
Su Qingtong, who was paralyzed by the digital age of later generations, remembered that there was once a pickpocket in this world, and if so, her wallet with dozens of yuan was gone.
When the proprietress saw her looking for her, she asked, "Is the money lost?" β
Su Qingtong nodded: "Someone touched me just now, and then the wallet in his pocket was gone." β
The proprietress looked at her sympathetically and said: "That's a pickpocket, I watched him sneakily walk around and go out, eighty percent is successful, I didn't expect to steal your child's money, it's really good, forget it, for the sake of you lost the money, you don't have to pay for breakfast." β
Su Qingtong thought to herself, if it was someone else, she wouldn't have to pay even if she wanted to, but she wouldn't be able to take out a few cents of early money, so by looking for money on her body, she had already pulled out a few ten-yuan bills from the space.
The customers eating breakfast next to them were discussing: "There are too many pickpockets these days, and the money really needs to be put away, and it will be stolen accidentally." β
"It's useless to put it away, when my old watch took the train, I sewed the money into the underwear, and the thief took it away with a blade, but fortunately no one was hurt."
"It's been more in the past few years, where were the pickpockets so rampant in the past."
"I think it's because after the influx of outsiders, the security in G City is so bad."
Sister-in-law Liang looked at the banknotes handed over by Su Qingtong and was stunned, she didn't expect this girl to be very alert, and she knew how to divide the money into two places, so she couldn't help but ask her, "How much money did you lose just now?" β
Su Qingtong thought about it, and didn't tell the truth, so as not to give people the feeling that she was very rich, so she said: "About a dozen yuan, I didn't count it." β
"That's a lot, you have to be careful in the future, the world is not peaceful now."
Su Qingtong took the change that Sister-in-law Liang was looking for and was about to leave, but she heard a man asking Sister-in-law Liang: "Sister-in-law Liang, has Sister-in-law's house been sold?" β
Sister-in-law Liang said: "Not yet, it's so expensive, who can afford it." β
The man said: "I heard that this place is going to be demolished, and it is really going to be demolished for more than 80,000 yuan." β
"You just dream, the big boss of Hong Kong who invested has already set the area across the road, and it has been announced, I inquired and said that the subsidy is not much, and there is not much for so many families, so it is better not to demolish and rent it out to others."
"I also heard that after the demolition on the opposite side, we will not plan to demolish it, even if it is demolished, it will not be demolished in a large area, forget it, it's okay not to demolish, although the place is small to live in a western-style house."
As soon as Su Qingtong heard that there was a house for sale, he immediately came to his senses, is this what others often say, it takes no effort to break through the iron shoes and find nowhere to get them?
"Boss, where is the house you want to sell?"
Sister-in-law Liang looked at the girl in front of her suspiciously, about eleven or twelve years old, dressed quite fashionably, and looked very cute, thinking of her look of no pity for losing more than ten yuan, thinking that maybe she was a child of a rich family, so she asked with a smile: "Do you want to buy a house?" β
Su Qingtong nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, my parents have always wanted to buy a house, but they couldn't find a suitable one." β
Sister-in-law Liang said: "There is a building, but it costs 80,000 yuan. β
"Eighty thousand?" Su Qingtong couldn't help but take a breath, this house is really expensive, but then she thinks about it, there must be a reason why the expensive house is expensive, maybe it is the house she is looking for?
He asked, "Can you see the house?" β
Sister-in-law Liang originally wanted to show Su Qingtong the way and let her go by herself, but after thinking about it, she untied her bib, beckoned the maid's aunt to take care of the counter, and then personally led Su Qingtong to the house to be sold.
The place where Liang's sister-in-law did business was originally a place with a relatively strong flow of people, and after the two of them turned a few corners, they saw that there were fewer and fewer pedestrians, and they were getting farther and farther away from the commercial street, but they were getting closer and closer to the river.
After a while, she walked to a stone street that was a little old, and Sister-in-law Liang pointed to a blue brick building in front of her and said, "Look, it's that one, the location is good, if it's my house, I don't have to run so far to open the stall." β
Su Qingtong took a look from a distance, the original house stood at the crossroads, the street where he and Liang's sister-in-law walked was north-south, and the intersecting road was east-west, the road looked quite wide, there were traffic lights, and there were many neat shops.
Liang sister-in-law said: "Originally, Axi's sister-in-law's house was not the first on the street, two years earlier to expand the road, the two houses in the south of her house were demolished, and her house became the first on the side of the road, Axi's sister-in-law is always noisy, I look good, there is no felt block in front, not to mention that the light is good and ventilated, you will go to the road to see it, there are sidewalks and flower beds over there, for pedestrians to rest, if you open the door to the outside of the house on both sides, it is the best faΓ§ade room, this house is not a loss." β
Su Qingtong felt that Sister-in-law Liang actually wanted to buy this house, otherwise she would not take her one-and-a-half-old child to see the house, but she was afraid that she would take the opportunity to see the house again, or take the opportunity to test whether the seller's price was loose.
This 80,000 yuan is a huge amount of money now, and it is difficult for ordinary people to take out 800, where can they get 80,000, even Su Qingtong feels pain.
The two walked to the gate of a blue brick and black tile and stopped, Su Qingtong glanced at the building in front of him, although it was a few years, but the building materials were all made of green bricks and granite, so it looked very solemn and neat, quite a bit of the taste of a rich family, especially the area looked large enough, although it was not as grand as the space, it was rare in reality.
Sister-in-law Liang is right, this family used to either have some money or some power, otherwise the house would not have been built so exquisitely.
Sister-in-law Liang has already started to knock on the door, the door is hidden, but no one answers, so she knocked and shouted loudly: "Sister-in-law Axi, sister-in-law Axi is not at home?" β
After a while, a woman's voice said, "Come in, you're all here." β
Su Qingtong followed Liang's sister-in-law to push open the door and enter, and saw a three-point sized patio, and there were several people sitting in the hall at the other end of the patio, one of whom was a woman in her forties, sitting in the middle, and several men and women were talking next to her, sounding like they were negotiating, and two of them wanted to buy a house.
Su Qingtong has a sense of crisis, it seems that this house is very popular, and she just fell in love.
Sister-in-law Liang glanced at the two men and women she had never seen in the house and asked, "Sister-in-law Axi, have you bought this house?" If it doesn't work out, this little sister's family also wants to buy your house. β
Sister-in-law Axi, who was wearing a black embroidered gold-rimmed placket, glanced at Su Qingtong, this child looked eleven or twelve years old, his expression was calm, his demeanor was calm, and he gave people a sense of maturity and stability, so he smiled and said: "Sister-in-law Liang, you are teasing me again, where can such a child afford my house." β
Su Qingtong saw that she spoke softly, her words and deeds were full of a leisurely and quiet style, and she knew that she was a knowledgeable and educated woman, so she said in awe: "Auntie, although I am young, my parents gave me the money to buy a house, as long as I like it, they all agree, if the price of your house is right, I can give you the full amount today." β
As soon as she said this, everyone looked at her blankly and didn't speak, Sister-in-law Axi was stunned, turned around and asked Sister-in-law Liang, "Sister-in-law Liang, did you tell her how much my house is?" How big is the size of the house? β
Sister-in-law Liang said with a smile: "It's not too late to say now, the house is right in front of you, and besides, where do I know the area of your house, even the rooms have not been counted." β
Sister-in-law Ah Xi smiled and said to Su Qingtong: "Now that someone wants my house, they pay 60,000, I am thinking about it now, if you want it, give me 70,000, I am also annoyed, I just want to sell it as soon as possible, but the price cannot be less." β
Su Qingtong thought about it, I don't know if there is 70,000 in the space, it should be about the same, but it is not interesting for the two parties to bid in this way, although she really likes this house, I am afraid that she will add it to 70,000, and the other party will add it to 80,000, and it will still not be her share.
Su Qingtong looked at Sister-in-law Liang, Sister-in-law Liang seemed to be surprised, someone actually came out to 60,000? She originally planned to sell when Sister-in-law Axi dropped to 50,000, although she didn't have so much money in her hand, she could still borrow it if she wanted to find a way, but she couldn't borrow 70,000.
Su Qingtong looked at the two men and women next to him again, they looked at Su Qingtong calmly, and even had some smiles on their faces, this is not believing that Su Qingtong will buy it, Su Qingtong looked at Sister-in-law Axi again, Sister-in-law Axi is sitting firmly in Diaoyutai at the moment, looking like she will not make a move without 70,000.
Su Qingtong said: "I want sixty-five thousand." β
As soon as she said this, everyone looked at her, as if they couldn't believe that she would really buy it, even Axi's sister-in-law thought so, where did such an old child get sixty-five thousand, this is not a small amount, but Su Qingtong can increase the price is a good thing for her, in fact, she pinned her hopes on those two men and women, she felt that this pair of men and women were the ones who bought her house.
Su Qingtong saw that everyone was looking at her and didn't speak, so she couldn't help but ask, "Sister-in-law Axi, are you selling it?" If we sell, we will sign an agreement and then go to the housing management office to register. β
As soon as Sister-in-law Axi heard this, she knew that this was a child who had gone through the world, and she was afraid that she had seen the sale of houses, or bought other properties with her own hands, and she didn't dare to despise her for a moment, but she always felt that the price was not ideal, but it was more than the previous people's bids.
Sister-in-law Axi looked at the man and woman and asked, "This little girl has already paid 65,000, how much have you paid?" β
The pot-bellied man seemed to know what Sister-in-law Axi was thinking, and normal people didn't believe that a child had such strength, so he smiled and said: "Sister-in-law Axi, you also believe that a child is talking nonsense, can she take out sixty-five thousand?" We sincerely want to buy your house, and we have brought the money. β
As he spoke, he opened the black leather bag, revealing stacks of banknotes.
Su Qingtong glanced at it casually and said, "I didn't have the money with me, just go over and get it, and I can withdraw it in half an hour." β
The woman next to the man couldn't help but scold: "What nonsense is a child talking about? If you don't have the money to buy a house, don't mess around. β
