Chapter 436: Second-hand house
Chapter 436: Second-hand house
Ying Qisi glared at Luo Tiantian fiercely, thought for a while and said, "Then let's go and see, which classmate are you? Male or female."
Luo Tiantian breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It's Lao Zeng, whom you know. He used to live in the same community as us. At that time, our two families had a very good relationship. He also said that he would marry Ning'er to his son."
Ying Qisi frowned: "Oh, is it that Zeng Hai?"
Luo Tiantian nodded, and then said excitedly: "You don't know, Zeng Hai is very developed now."
"His son is very capable. He is now a senior executive in a large company with an annual salary of over one million. This time he bought a house of more than [-] square meters in Yunjing Mountain and paid the full price of [-] million."
Ying Qisi shook her head and said: "How is it possible? Yunjingshan is one of the three major villa areas in Tianyang. It costs more than three million, but you can't even buy a toilet in Yunjingshan."
"Zeng Hai still can't get rid of his bragging habit."
Although the relationship between the two families was good at the time, the reason why Ying Qisi did not agree to the matter between Luo Ning and Zeng Hai's son was mainly because Zeng Hai's family had high ambitions but low abilities and acted out of tune.
Luo Tiantian replied: "They took the photos. I think the environment is over there at Yunjing Mountain, so there won't be any fake photos."
"I'll call him first and ask him when he's free. Let's go see his old house."
The call got through quickly, and after a while of greetings, Zeng Hai knew Luo Tianzi's purpose and responded that he would be available at any time.
Luo Tiantian discussed it with Ying Qisi, decided to have lunch outside and go to see the house that afternoon.
Zeng Hai was still living in the old house at this time and had not moved, so before visiting Zeng Hai, Luo Tiantian and his wife first walked around the community and observed the surrounding environment.
"The environment here is similar to ours. Although the transportation is more convenient, it is further away from the city. Old Zeng is so deceptive." Luo Tiantian looked around and was not very satisfied.
Ying Qisi said quite satisfied: "Everyone wants to find a house with good environment, convenient transportation and large space, but the budget is not enough. Didn't Lao Zeng say that his old house is nearly one hundred square meters? That’s enough.”
"Our house is not even [-] square meters. Every time Xia'er comes home, Zhou Yi has to sleep on the sofa in the living room."
"If the two of them have another child, it will be even more crowded. Let's get a bigger one this time. At least the child's house will be freed up. This way Ning'er will have no reason not to have a child."
Luo Tiantian snorted coldly: "It has been four years and there is no movement in Ning'er's stomach. Maybe there is something wrong with Zhou Yi."
"Bah, bah, bah, what are you talking about?" Ying Qisi said unhappily: "Let's go and go to Lao Zeng's house to see the house."
When Luo Tiantian and his wife arrived at Zeng Hai's home, the latter had been waiting for a long time. Zeng Hai patted Luo Tiantian on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Oh, old classmates, we haven't seen each other for several years."
Zeng Hai is about in his early fifties. At home, he wears his hair straight and wears a gold chain, looking like a nouveau riche.
"Yeah, we haven't seen each other for several years." As he said that, Luo Tiantian came out with a bag of oranges: "Hey, I saw an orange seller down there. It's quite sweet to try. You guys have a try."
Although the relationship between the two families is not as good as before, you can't go empty-handed when visiting. This is Ying Qisi's special instruction.
"Thank you for your kindness, but let's just give it a try." At this time, a sharp voice sounded, and a middle-aged woman with heavy makeup came out. Her name was Zou Mei, Zeng Hai's wife.
Zou Mei first looked at Ying Qisi. She hadn't seen him for several years, but when she saw that the latter was still so young and still charming, she couldn't help showing jealousy in her eyes, but she still smiled on the surface:
"Sister Qisi, we haven't seen each other for a long time, but I'm not targeting you. This orange is really inedible."
Ying Qisi looked puzzled: "Why, I bought this right downstairs from your house. Is there something wrong with it?"
Zou Mei quickly corrected: "It's not downstairs in our house now, we are moving to a new home."
Then he said rather disgustedly:
"You don't know, the fruit sold at the fruit stall down there is inedible, and oranges only cost a few dollars a pound."
Ying Qisi was stunned and said subconsciously: "Isn't this a normal price?"
Zou Mei showed a look on her face and said with a smile: "Then it's your fault for being short-sighted. There is also a fruit seller downstairs in our new home. Do you know how much a pound of oranges there is?"
Without waiting for Ying Qisi's response, Zou Mei asked and answered: "More than fifty pounds a pound, and it's imported. I bought some last time, and they were so sweet. Since then, I can't eat them anymore." It’s only [-] yuan a pound of oranges.”
Luo Tiantian, who was carrying the orange, looked a little embarrassed. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough and quickly retracted his hand: "We are here to see the house. You were willing to sell it on the phone, right?"
Zeng Hai nodded: "I will move to a new home in two days. This room is also empty. Seeing that you are looking for a house, I might as well sell it to you at a low price."
Luo Tiantian was overjoyed: "Old classmate, this is really interesting. I promise to bring you [-] yuan a pound of oranges next time."
Ying Qisi was also a little happy: "Then can we visit the house first?"
Qiu Mei waved her hand: "Actually, there is nothing interesting to see. We have long been tired of living here. The community is shabby, it is so far away from the city, and there are cockroaches in the room. It is really not a place for people to live."
"The house on the Yunjingshan side is more comfortable, with large space and a wide view. Moreover, the neighbors are rich people, and we also have a common language with them."
Hearing this, Ying Qisi frowned, but did not speak. Instead, she pulled Luo Tiantian and started to look at the house.
To be honest, although the environment of the community is not good, Zeng Hai's house is still good. It has three bedrooms, one living room and one bathroom. The space is about [-] square meters, which meets Ying Qisi's needs.
A new house might cost [-] million, but this is a second-hand house. The decoration is old, and the paint is peeling off in some places, which is very unsightly. There is no balcony.
In Ying Qisi's view, normally one can win [-] million, and he might be able to negotiate the price based on his previous friendship.
"I'm quite satisfied. Although we can't afford [-] million now, we can borrow some from relatives and then borrow from banks. We should be able to make up enough." Ying Qisi said in a low voice.
"As long as you are satisfied." Luo Tiantian said.
Ying Qisi winked: "I'm not satisfied, isn't this your old classmate? And just now he said he would sell it to you at a low price, you have to remind him soon."
"I know, I know." Luo Tiantian sighed. He usually saves face very much, but at this time he had to lower his face and said with a smile: "Brother Hai, we are quite satisfied with this room at the moment. How do you feel about it?" What’s the price?”
Ying Qisi also looked forward to it. The normal price was [-] million, but thinking about the friendship between old classmates and old neighbors, it should be cheaper.
Before Zeng Hai could say anything, Zou Mei came over and said, "If we sell this room to someone else, it will cost at least two million, but because of the relationship between our two families, we will give you a discount."
"How about [-] million? But it's a full [-] yuan cheaper, enough for me to buy as many oranges as I want."
As she said that, Zou Mei still looked reluctant.
