Chapter 140
Meng Haisheng and Lin Mucheng arrived at the small western-style building on time.
The two took 20,000 yuan, a whole black bag, and Meng Haisheng felt heavy carrying it.
With so many things and a pregnant woman, the two did not walk very fast. When they arrived at the small western-style building, Gu Shaojun was already waiting there anxiously.
In addition to Gu Shaojun, there was also Boss Tan and his family from yesterday, and the landlord Lin Guoxin who had never met.
"Comrade Lin, can you see if you can make the house cheaper? I really like your small western-style building."
Boss Tan changed into a slightly fat suit today and carried a slightly delicate small leather bag in his hand.
Meng Haisheng took a look from a distance and saw the size of Boss Tan's leather bag. He knew in his heart that Boss Tan was definitely not sincere in wanting to buy the small western-style building. He didn't even bring cash.
Gu Shaojun said that the owner was in a hurry to sell the house. If the price was agreed today, it would be best to trade immediately.
"Brother Meng, you are here."
Gu Shaojun came forward to greet Meng Haisheng enthusiastically.
"Didn't you say you were here to discuss the price today? The landlord invited both of our families?"
Gu Shaojun smiled a little embarrassedly.
"Isn't the landlord in a hurry to sell the house?"
Gu Shaojun pulled Meng Haisheng forward enthusiastically and introduced Lin Guoxin to him.
"Comrade Meng, how much do you want to pay for my small western-style house?"
Lin Guoxin didn't beat around the bush with Meng Haisheng and asked him directly.
Before Meng Haisheng opened his mouth to speak, Boss Tan got anxious first.
"Comrade Lin, we came here first, so naturally you have to discuss the price with us first. It's a bit against the rules for you to suddenly ask other people."
The speaker was Boss Tan's mother-in-law, Wu Daniu.
When she saw Meng Haisheng coming, her face was very long and she looked very unhappy.
"You guys talk first, I'm not in a hurry."
Meng Haisheng was also patient. Anyway, the small western-style building would be his sooner or later, so it didn't matter if they talked earlier or later.
"Comrade Meng, wait a moment, I'll talk first."
Lin Guoxin was afraid that Meng Haisheng would hear the price he and Boss Tan were talking about, so he took Boss Tan to walk into the yard.
Wu Da Niu looked up and down at Meng Haisheng, and Lin Mucheng, who was pregnant.
She couldn't help but go up and talk to the two of them.
When Wu Da Niu heard that the two were from Muping Town, she curled her lips and sighed.
"Is it so easy for rural people to make money now? Can they all come to the county to buy a small Western-style house?"
"My family has two working parents, and my daughter has even attended high school, so we can find a son-in-law as rich as Xiao Tan."
"Young man, I don't think you can afford a small Western-style house. You'd better not make trouble here. What if the owner sees you and deliberately raises the price here, won't you disrupt the market?"
As a city dweller, Wu Daniu looked down on Meng Haisheng and Lin Mucheng who came from the countryside.
The condescending feeling in her words made Meng Haisheng very unhappy.
"Old comrade, I'm not pretending to be rich. I'm here to buy a small Western-style house sincerely."
Meng Haisheng's words of old comrade almost made Wu Daniu vomit blood.
Is she that old?
"Besides, let Boss Tan negotiate the price first. If Boss Tan can negotiate a good price with the owner, I will not make a random offer. Don't worry about that."
Meng Haisheng was unhappy, so he naturally didn't want to let Wu Danniu in front of him be happy.
"Old comrade, what business does Boss Tan do?"
Meng Haisheng asked casually.
"Xiao Tan is a truck driver. He can make at least 100 yuan a month. I'm afraid that people in your village can't save 100 yuan even if they work hard for a year."
"Old comrade, these are all old news. I don't know about others. I can make a few thousand yuan a day by selling Bupleurum chinense. People with great skills can make more than me."
"The villagers' lives have been much better in the past two years. When I was in our village, we were so poor that we couldn't even eat."
"Now I have bought a tractor and contracted dozens of acres of land. I have a lot of spare money. I am thinking of buying a small Western-style building in the county to live in."
"But I think this small Western-style building is a bit small. I'm afraid it won't be livable. I came here today to buy two at a time. I live in one and my wife's parents live in one."
Meng Haisheng pretended to be a big shot with a calm face, which made Wu Danniu stunned.
She was very curious in her heart. When did rural people make so much money?
In her eyes, the villagers in the countryside are all laborers. They are lucky to have enough food and warm clothes. How can they buy tractors and small houses?
"Young man, are you kidding me? You can make so much money just by selling some worthless Bupleurum in the village?"
"I am not just dealing in Bupleurum chinense. I am sending it to the Chinese Medicine Hospital. I have some connections there. You can report my name when you go to the Chinese Medicine Hospital. Maybe I can give you a discount on Chinese medicine."
"What should I call you?"
Meng Haisheng almost burst out laughing when he heard Wu Daniu asking him his name. The man in front of him really wanted to take advantage of everything and would not let go of any of it.
"My name is Meng Daniu."
"Comrade Meng is so young and yet he can do so much. He is really amazing."
Wu Daniu looked at Lin Mucheng, who was pregnant, and continued with a fake smile, "This comrade is also very beautiful. Otherwise, how could she marry a rich and capable man like Comrade Meng."
"Old comrade, you are wrong. My wife is an educated youth from Beijing. She was the most beautiful girl in our village."
"I tried my best to get my wife. "
Meng Haisheng chatted with Wu Daniu for a few words, and the owner of the two-story villa came over.
Buying a house is of course more important than pretending to be a big shot. Meng Haisheng took Lin Mucheng to discuss the price of the house first.
The owner of the two-story villa had already received several groups of people who came to see the house.
He also knew the price of the house very well. Meng Haisheng wanted it sincerely, and both parties made concessions. Finally, the deal was made for 7,000 yuan.
Originally, the landlord wanted to transfer the ownership with Meng Haisheng.
But Meng Haisheng wanted to wait a little longer to see if Boss Tan had finished the discussion.
If the two houses were transferred together, he could make fewer trips.
On the other side, Boss Tan had a bitter face and finally finished haggling with Lin Guoxin.
"Mom, the landlord won't lower the price. He insisted on 9,000 yuan, not a penny less. ”
“This little western-style building only sounds foreign in name, but it’s not much different from an ordinary house to live in. Why don’t we buy the staff housing of the textile factory? Although it’s a small property, it’s cheap.”
When Wu Daniu heard the price of 9,000 yuan, she was a little surprised.
The price they agreed to buy the little western-style building was only 5,000 yuan at most, and now it’s so much more money, it’s really unacceptable.
“Xiao Tan, why don’t we bite the bullet and buy it? It’s a three-story building, and there are many people in our family, so it’s just enough to live in. If we buy a house in the staff community, we have to sell three houses, which is not cheap either.”
Seeing that Wu Daniu was determined to buy, Boss Tan could only try to persuade her.
“Mom, I inquired about this little western-style building a few days ago. It’s said that a group of German senior officials lived here before, and finally all of them were shot by soldiers. I heard that the death was very miserable, and blood was flowing out of the house. "
There are many taboos when buying a house. If someone has died in the house, the price must be reduced.
When Wu Daniu heard this, her little thoughts disappeared instantly.
She didn't want to live in a house where someone had died.
