Chapter 63: How Long to Rent?
Xia Jinfeng knocked a few times, but no one came out to open the door.
She turned her head to look at Xia Youzhi, "Yesterday I told them that I might come to see the house, maybe I went out for something temporary." ”
"It's okay, let's take a look at the rest first." The way of summer young.
The town is not big, and then come back.
Xia Jinfeng nodded, "Okay." ”
The two of them were about to lift their feet and leave, when the door opened.
Xia Youzhi turned his head when he heard this.
A gray-haired grandmother opened the door and poked her head out, "Who?" ”
Xia Youzhi looked at this grandmother, who should be in her seventies.
When she saw Xia Jinfeng, she was stunned, and then said with a smile, "Girl, it turned out to be you, I thought you wouldn't come." ”
When I came to see it yesterday, I said that I might come over at noon today.
She waited with her wife and waited left and right and saw no one, and she thought she wouldn't come.
"Aunt Pan, how can you not come, it's just that something is delayed, now bring my niece to take a look." Xia Jinfeng smiled, "Youzhi, this is Grandma Pan." ”
"Hello Grandma Pan." Xia Youzhi greeted politely.
"Oh, this kid is so pretty." Grandma Pan squinted her eyes and smiled.
Xia Youzhi looked at Grandma Pan, energetic, with a loud voice, and she looked like she had a cool temperament.
"My child just went out, you come to see the house first, it's not me who said, my house is new enough, it's still neat and clean, I guarantee that you will be satisfied when you see it." Grandma Pan smiled and led Xia Youzhi's aunt and nephew into the courtyard. "Wife, come down quickly, the girl came to show the family the house yesterday."
"Hey."
A voice of response came from the house.
After a while, a grandfather with a somewhat stumbling step appeared.
"Uncle Pan." Xia Jinfeng greeted with a smile.
Xia Youzhi also greeted politely.
Grandpa Pan was a little stunned when he saw Xia You.
Yesterday, the girl said that she was helping her sister-in-law's family to see it, and today she has to take her family to see it again.
But bring a little girl, can this be the master?
Grandpa Pan muttered a little in his heart, but his face was still very enthusiastic, "I thought you weren't coming." I've been waiting with your Aunt Pan at noon. ”
"Something is delayed." Xia Jinfeng explained.
Xia Jinfeng looked at his expression, and he could also understand the concerns of the old couple.
She explained, "The main reason for renting a house this time is that my niece thinks it is suitable, and my sister-in-law's family has no opinion, and the price can also be negotiated with my niece." ”
Xia Youzhi nodded.
"Okay, you'll see. I went to call my son back, and he happened to go looking for a truck, and I had to talk to him about the price. Grandpa Pan said and put on his hat and went out, "You go into the house to see, the sun is big at this time." ”
Xia Youzhi saw the enthusiasm and eagerness of the old man, and he understood a little in his heart.
It is estimated that it is rented in a hurry.
"Let's look at the house, girl." Grandma Pan looked at Xia Youzhi and said with a smile, "This yard is big, I lived in the village with your grandfather Pan before, and then my son made some money in the city, so he built this house."
I usually live with your grandfather Pan, and we are both cute and pity, and we don't mess around. ”
Xia Youzhi looked around the courtyard.
The yard is quite large, separated by one side to grow vegetables, and a shed has been built on the other side.
It is indeed very clean, and it is estimated that the old couple cleans it every day.
Xia Youzhi nodded, "Grandma Pan, let's go into the house and have a look." ”
"Okay." With that, Grandma Pan led Xia You's aunt and nephew to the house.
This new three-storey building is quite spacious.
The main door leads to a spacious hall, and further inside is the living room for eating.
There are two rooms in the back, the one on the left is the kitchen, and the one on the right is the room where the old couple lived.
"We both live on the first floor, and our legs and feet are not good." Grandma Pan smiled.
"It's good to live on the first floor, so you don't have to climb up and down." Xia Jinfeng answered.
The house is well ventilated and light, so it won't be dark, so it's on the ground floor and it's not damp.
"I'll take you up to the second floor." Grandma Pan smiled and walked up the stairs, "But my legs are not very sharp, so I may have to walk slower." ”
"Why don't you wait for your child to come back and then take us up, I also saw the second and third floors yesterday, and the layout is the same, I just want my niece to take a look, anyway, I'm not in a hurry." Xia Jinfeng said with a smile.
Grandma Pan waved her hand, "It's out of the way." Let's go, kid, grandma will show you around. ”
She looked at Xia Youzhi on the side, and Xia Youzhi had to nod.
The stairs are relatively gentle, and Grandma Pan does not have to walk hard.
went up to the second floor, Xia Youyi looked at it, and it was really the same as what his sister-in-law said.
The layout is not much different from the first floor, except that the front hall has become a large room.
Grandma Pan showed Xia Youzhi other rooms.
All are quite spacious and fully furnished.
"This third floor is the same as the second floor, but it is unfurnished and empty." Grandma Pan said, "You go up and have a look." ”
Xia Youzhi responded with a "yes" and went upstairs to see it by himself.
The layout of the third floor is exactly the same as that of the second floor, but when you go up to the top, the view suddenly widens.
Next to it is a green farmland.
On the other side, from a distance, you can still see the scene of people coming and going on the other side of the market.
After looking at this house, Xia Youzhi's heart was more confident.
There are a lot of rooms, but if you rent them, you don't need so many rooms, they are empty and wasteful, and the first floor can't be a store, and you can only live alone.
For the average family, it is not very practical, so it should not be easy to rent.
After staying for a while, Xia Youzhi went downstairs.
Grandma Pan and Xia Jinfeng were already sitting in the living room on the first floor. Finish.
"Son, do you see, this house is not picky, it was built by my son according to the standards of the city." Grandma Pan's tone couldn't hide her pride.
She hadn't seen a house in the city, but in this pattern, there were no other homes in Mashan Town.
Xia Youzhi smiled and nodded.
Just as he wanted to respond to Grandma Pan, a voice came from the yard.
"Mom." A gentle, deep voice came from the courtyard.
Xia Youzhi looked sideways, and it was a middle-aged man wearing a white shirt, not tall, and slightly fat.
At this moment, he was smiling towards Xia Youzhi and them.
The person who came was Grandma Pan's son, Pan Chenggui.
When Pan Chenggui saw Xia Jinfeng, he asked with a smile, "Sister, are you here?" ”
Xia Jinfeng responded with a smile, "Yes, Brother Pan, when I came, it happened that you went out." ”
"What's going on? Girl, are you still satisfied? Pan Chenggui looked at Xia Youzhi on the side.
On the way back, he had already heard from his father, saying that he had brought a little girl to see him, and this little girl was the one who could take charge.
Even if he was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Xia Youzhi so young.
Xia Youzhi nodded, and went straight in, "Uncle Pan, this house is very good, but it's too big, our family is only five people, and we can't live in so many rooms if we come occasionally, so it's a bit of a waste to rent here." ”
Hearing Xia Youzhi's words, Grandma Pan on the side was a little anxious.
The people who came to see this morning were too big, saying that they didn't need to be so big, it was a big waste, and the rent was high.
There are not many people in the town who need to rent a house, and they are in a hurry to leave, and they will not be able to find tenants for a while.
"Girl, how spacious it is here, it is comfortable to live in, I heard your sister-in-law say, you want to do business in the town, we are big here, and you can use it casually when the time comes." Grandma Pan hurriedly said.
Originally, when she heard that she was going to eat and drink, she was still a little reluctant, for fear of ruining her house.
But now she can't wait to rent it out.
When Xia Jinfeng heard this, he regretted that he had revealed too much, which made it difficult for Xia Youzhi to bargain.
Xia Youzhi didn't care, and said with a smile, "Grandma Pan, you're right, our family is planning to move to the town to facilitate business, and this house is really good, and I am also excited to look at it."
But it's really big, our family is not so big, and it's still a little far from the market, so we can't be a shop.
If we go to the market to do business, it is not convenient to walk, we have to buy a board car or something, and your rent is also higher, we also need to consider our costs. ”
When others saw Xia Youyi's sincere face, they all believed her words.
Xia Jinfeng was a little puzzled.
Didn't you look good just now?
Is it true that you don't want to rent?
Pan Chenggui, who had not squeaked, had a glimmer of light in his eyes.
He smiled and said, "Girl, what you said is true, our house is mainly trying to find a suitable tenant, just don't spoil the house."
Furniture or something, I picked it up before to buy, and I didn't take it away, and I didn't take it away, so I had more money to live comfortably, and I was energetic to work.
I'm picking up my parents to live in the city, and I don't have time to come back to fix the house later, so I want to finish it in a few days, if you really see the right one, the price is negotiable. ”
Grandma Pan nodded hurriedly.
Pan Chenggui looked at his parents so sincerely, and sighed helplessly.
He has been in business for so long, so he can naturally see what this girl means.
It's just that his parents behaved like this, and the other party also knew that he was in a hurry to rent.
For example, if you come to see the house this morning, you will directly press it to fifty yuan.
So he could only tell the truth.
Whether this house can be rented out, or how much money it can be rented, is not very important to him, the main thing is that his father and mother are happy.
He also saw that the girl in front of him was a clean and neat person who could take care of the house.
So it doesn't matter if the price is low, otherwise it will be empty and dusty.
"Uncle Pan, to tell you nothing, I can really see that you are in a hurry to move. For such a good house, I don't want to keep the price too low, just give me a cheaper price, seventy yuan a month. Xia Youzhi smiled lightly.
Pan Chenggui was a little surprised.
He thought that even if Xia Youzhi didn't press fifty yuan like this morning, he would at least say sixty.
But he didn't expect it to be much higher than he expected.
"But I have one condition." Xia Youzhi paused, and then said, "At present, we can't give you a lump sum of this rent. This month, we can only give a deposit of 100 yuan, and we will give you a year's rent at the end of next month, and we are also planning to rent for a long time. ”
Xia Youzhi had understood it before.
In the town, the whole lease is generally paid directly for one year's rent.
"Next month?"
Pan Chenggui frowned.
He didn't have that much time for those things.
Xia Youzhi nodded, "Uncle Pan, if you can trust me, leave me the bank account number, and I will send you money when the time comes, and we have signed a contract, and I will definitely give you the money." ”
Pan Chenggui smiled, "I'm not worried about this." ”
He looks at people accurately, and Xia Youzhi is not this kind of person when he sees it.
"And how long are you going to rent it?" Pan Chenggui asked.
"Three years."
