On April 11, Xu Dong took the high-speed train to Yanjing with his suitcase, but fortunately, his original job also required frequent business trips, so Yang Lina did not doubt it.

After getting off the high-speed rail, Xu Dong looked for several real estate agency companies one after another, but did not find a suitable house.

This can't be blamed on other intermediary companies, it's really Xu Dong's requirements for housing are too harsh.

First of all, the property must be a courtyard house, preferably located within the third ring road, and the suburbs are not considered. This alone has eliminated 99 percent of the listings on the market;

Secondly, the courtyard should have a basement, and the larger the basement, the better.

After looking like this for a week, he still found nothing, and just when Xu Dong was about to lower his requirements, good news finally came from the side of "Anjia".

Xu Dong rushed to the location of the new house non-stop, the location of the courtyard is okay, close to the East Third Ring Road, and the surrounding supporting facilities are complete.

"Settle at home" was actually Manager Wang personally this time, and it seems that the other party's confidence is very high.

"Mr. Wang, I'm going to trouble you again." Xu Dong stepped forward and said politely, and then handed the other party a cigarette.

Manager Wang took the cigarette, but he didn't smoke it, but hung it on his ear, and replied: "Don't bother, this is our job!" ”

After a few pleasantries, the three of them came to the door of a traditional courtyard house.

"Mr. Xu, this is it, the owner and his wife plan to go abroad to join their children in the near future, and they just came out of the house this morning." Manager Wang pointed to the courtyard wall and introduced.

"Which country are you going to?" Xu Dong suddenly became interested.

In a few months, there will be a catastrophe, and there will be more turmoil abroad than at home, and in the next decade, at least seventy percent of countries will be delisted.

"Gamata." Manager Wang's tone was full of yearning.

"The living conditions over there... It's still good, but the security may not be very good in the future. Xu Dong said pun intended.

Generally speaking, there are world police in the south of Gama University, and it is a vast and sparsely populated area.

Even after the catastrophe, the chances of survival are still quite high, provided that they are not taken advantage of by others.

"Uh......"

Getting back to business, Xu Dong looked at the courtyard in front of him, the house was very exquisitely cleaned, the antique steel gate, the door and the bottom of the courtyard wall used a lot of brick carvings, and it took a lot of thought to see it.

"Can you go in and have a look?" Xu Dong demanded.

"Absolutely." After Mr. Wang finished speaking, he motioned to his assistant to open the door.

With the opening of the gate, the first thing that caught Xu Dong's eye was a small rockery that was not very tall, which served as a shadow wall, and at the bottom of the rockery was a stone bowl with a diameter of about 1.5 meters.

The stone bowl is dotted with a number of aquatic plants, and among the aquatic plants are two or three goldfish with beautiful colors, whose bodies are about the length of a finger, and they look leisurely.

Xu Dong couldn't help but sigh "Huh" and praised: "There are mountains and rivers, and the small scenery is quite complete!" ”

"Of course." Manager Wang explained with a smile: "The owner and the old couple are both university professors, and their taste is definitely not bad. ”

Xu Dong nodded and continued to observe.

The overall area of the courtyard is not very large, it should not exceed 400 square meters, with blue brick paving and houses on all sides.

In addition to rockeries and stone bowls, there is also a wooden trellis full of vines in the corner, and under the grape trellis is a set of dark stone tables and stone benches.

In addition, around the yard, there are also all kinds of potted plants, all of which are some common flowers and trees, and one of the peony flowers is the most vivid.

"Mr. Wang, how big is this area?" Xu Dong asked casually.

Manager Wang took out his notebook, glanced at it and replied:

"The courtyard was built in 01 year, with a concrete frame structure, covering an area of 370 square meters and a construction area of 1,010 square meters.

The north side is the main body of the building, with two floors, a total of eight bedrooms and two living rooms; On the east side is the kitchen and dining room, next to the rockery; On the west side, there is a separate toilet;

As for the south side, there is a gate, a gatehouse, and a garage, and the garage has its own entrance. ”

Xu Dong felt that this area was just enough to accommodate the whole family, and it was not too conspicuous.

Next, Manager Wang took Xu Dong to visit each room carefully.

Overall, the decoration is very good, the furniture and appliances are complete, and it belongs to the kind that can be moved in with a bag.

Returning to the courtyard again, Xu Dong suddenly asked, "Mr. Wang, where is the basement, why didn't I see the entrance?" ”

Manager Wang didn't answer immediately, but pointed to the garage, "The garage is the entrance to the basement, and the design is very clever, right?" ”

Xu Dong's face was full of question marks, and the three of them came to the back door of the garage together, only to see Manager Wang press the electronic lock, and the back door of the garage instantly opened from the middle like an elevator door.

Xu Dong suddenly realized: "It turned out that it was a car elevator, or it was double open front and rear, and the car could drive directly through the elevator into the yard." ”

"The basement has two floors, so in order to save space and make it easier for vehicles to enter and exit, so we made such a design." Manager Wang specially explained.

The three of them quickly came to the basement floor through the elevator, and the assistant Xiaomei turned on the lights and ventilation equipment, and suddenly the entire basement was bright.

"The size of the basement is exactly the same as the footprint of the courtyard, and the two floors are 370 square meters, with a ceiling height of 4.2 meters, which is very spacious." Manager Wang introduced in passing.

Xu Dong smiled, obviously very satisfied, and Manager Wang continued:

"The main function of the negative floor is to serve as an entertainment venue, you see, there is a gymnasium, a chess room, a video room, and a small basketball court, and it is no problem to play badminton and tennis."

"What is this?" Xu Dong suddenly pointed to a row of machines and asked.

"Uh, it should be a backup generator, depending on the model is diesel burning."

"Can it still be activated?"

"I guess it's going to take a repair, it looks like it hasn't been used for a long time."

Xu Dong didn't ask any more questions, walked around roughly, and then came to the negative second floor, the entire negative second floor was empty, only a few load-bearing pillars stood there.

Without the introduction of Manager Wang, Xu Dong saw at a glance that this was the real garage, because there were rows of parking spaces painted on the ground.

However, the parking space only takes up a small space, and the rest of the area is completely idle.

……

At the end of the viewing, Xu Dong followed Manager Wang to the meeting room of "Anjia" again, and the next step was the price negotiation.

"Mr. Wang, I don't make a fool of myself, I am very satisfied with the house, as long as the price is right, I can contact the owner tomorrow to sign the contract." Don't want to waste time, Xu Dong got straight to the point.

Manager Wang simply smiled and squinted, the commission of this set of courtyard houses is quite a lot, and it is not in vain that he will end up in person.

"Mr. Xu, don't worry, the price is absolutely fair......"

"How much is the other party offering?" Xu Dong asked directly.

"The homeowner has two certificates, the opening price is 112 million, and the taxes and fees are shared equally by both parties. However, I estimate that 105 million should be able to win. ”

The corners of Xu Dong's mouth twitched slightly, "The price is high, Yanjing just included the bungalow in the purchase restriction last month, and the house price of the courtyard has fallen very fiercely recently!" ”

"Mr. Xu, high-end real estate such as courtyard houses has always been in short supply, especially this kind of one with a basement, which is a rare opportunity." Manager Wang persuaded.

Xu Dong was too lazy to bargain anymore, and directly shouted a fixed price: "100 million, if it's okay, sign the contract tomorrow; If not, I'll take a look at the other listings. ”

Manager Wang's heart was happy, 100 million, which was completely above the psychological price of the owner, but he still pretended to be embarrassed, "I can help persuade you, whether it can be done depends on fate." ”

Xu Dong stood up and nodded, "Then I'll wait for your good news, Mr. Wang." ”

……

That night, Xu Dong received a call from Manager Wang, and it was good news.

Although the price was a little inflated, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, Xu Dong quickly signed a purchase contract with the owner.

Xu Dong paid 100,000 yuan in advance as a deposit for this transaction, and Shuangfei agreed to pay the full amount of the house in a lump sum in June, and the overdue contract was invalid and the deposit was not refunded.
