Chapter 369 The House is Really Expensive

"My boyfriend's parents thought my job was not very reliable and were a little unhappy about it."

"Didn't I get rid of Wang Erliu a while ago? I've been taking over his business recently and I'm too busy. I'll put the marriage on hold for now."

Qiu Jibin said casually.

"You won't change people, will you?"

Chen Jianye deliberately joked.

"That won't happen. My current girlfriend is pretty good. We have done everything we need to do. I can't abandon her."

Qiu Jibin shook his head.

"You kid, you say a lot of things about me, but you don't hold back either."

This time it was Chen Jianye's turn to make righteous accusations.

"I'm not like you, one in the house and one outside."

Qiu Jibin refuted.

"Don't brag. When you get married, I'll see how long you can stay quiet."

Chen Jianye didn't blush at all.

"No matter how much I like a girl, I won't spend more than a thousand dollars to buy her a house. If she doesn't obey me, I can just find another one. It's better to spend so much money than to get my money from the wind."

Qiu Jibin counterattacked.

"Okay, okay, tell me which Lafang Xian'er you want to introduce."

Chen Jianye changed the subject.

He couldn't tell Qiu Jibin about buying a house. He couldn't tell Qiu Jibin now that the price of courtyard houses would definitely increase in the future, so he should quickly stock up on two sets.

Firstly, Qiu Jibin did not have as much money as him, and for a businessman, large cash flow expenditures were a very cautious matter.

Secondly, who doesn’t want to buy a courtyard house and live in comfortably?

Qiu Jibin naturally had his own reasons for not buying it.

Persuading people to buy a siheyuan is like persuading them to go to Tsinghua University.

Don’t they want to go?

"That guy's name is Liu Laosan. He has been working as a prostitute in Sijiu City for a long time. He has a lot of resources. As you know, his industry is not officially allowed, so he relies entirely on word of mouth, so his reputation is pretty good."

"Generally, those who sell houses are the old guard from the previous dynasty, and some businessmen who have accumulated real estate in the early years. After the public-private partnership, some businessmen have a hard time and can only sell houses for money."

"The agency fee is usually 5% of the property, capped at yuan. I'll take you there, capped at yuan, which isn't expensive."

"By the way, don't ask anyone to pull Fang Xian'er in front of Liu Laosan..."

Qiu Jibin chattered on and on about the precautions.

Chen Jianye listened quietly.

More than ten minutes later, the two arrived at a bungalow.

The door of the bungalow was open and candles were lit inside.

A middle-aged man in his forties, shirtless, was sitting at the door, fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan, while two boys were playing around him.

"Third Brother!"

Qiu Jibin shouted enthusiastically from a distance.

"Hey, Mr. Qiu is here."

The middle-aged man sitting on the chair stood up and walked over with a smile on his face.

"Third brother, you've been doing pretty well lately. You've gained some weight on your belly."

Qiu Jibin joked.

"Hey, it's been OK lately. I can make a living."

"You can't compare with your Master Qiu."

Liu Laosan said with a smile.

Everyone carries a fancy sedan, especially those who are involved in society.

They always greet people with a smile.

"Third brother, today I brought my brothers to see you and introduce you to a good job."

"Jianye, this is Liu Laosan. If you want to buy a house in Sijiu City, you can find him."

"Third brother, this is my best friend Chen Jianye. I won't say anything else. Please serve me well and I will definitely give you some benefits."

Qiu Jibin warmed up the scene and formally introduced both parties.

"Third brother."

Chen Jianye shouted.

"Master Chen, you are too polite. The guests that Master Qiu introduced to me are all distinguished guests. Master Chen, please take a seat."

Liu Laosan spoke even more flatteringly and took the initiative to invite Chen Jianye to sit on the chair at the door.

"Let the children sit down, we can just stand and talk."

Chen Jianye waved his hand.

Liu Laosan told the two children at the door to go home and ask their mother to bring out two glasses of water to welcome the guests.

The two children ran into the house.

"Master Chen, I don't know what kind of house you want to see. I have an idea in mind so I can arrange it for you."

Liu Laosan asked.

"I want a courtyard house, suitable for a family to live in."

"Any house within ten miles of the Forbidden City will do."

“Not too remote, not too old, and preferably one that can be moved in directly without having to buy too many things.”

Chen Jianye already had a plan in mind.

"What a coincidence, isn't it? I happen to have two houses like this. The two families left their house keys with me. Master Chen, whenever you are free, just come to me to go and see the houses."

The smile on Liu Laosan's face became even more ardent.

Once the property is transferred, he can get the agency fee.

No matter how cheap the courtyard house is, the transfer fee is enough for him to eat for a month.

"Third brother, Jianye is my best friend, what do you think about the fee collection?"

Qiu Jibin said at the right time.

"Mr. Qiu, you are being too polite. Mr. Chen, the cost of buying a house is no more than thirty dollars."

"And I don't want this money for nothing. I'll cut the price off the house price."

Liu Laosan said with great pride.

"Okay, it's worth it that I brought my brothers here to find you."

Qiu Jibin was very happy.

All you need to get into the underworld is face. He gave Liu Laosan face, and Liu Laosan also gave him face.

Everyone has face, so naturally things will get along well.

"I'll come see you on Sunday."

Chen Jianye thought about it and agreed on a date.

You must view the house during the day, mainly to see the lighting of the house.

He usually goes to work, and by the time he finishes his meal and goes house hunting, the sun is about to set and he has no way of telling whether the house is good or not.

"Where are the two houses and how much are they?"

Qiu Jibin asked from the side.

"It's in Dongzhimen, and the seller is asking for 1,700 yuan."

"It's in Chaoyangmen, and the seller is asking for 1,500 yuan."

"If Master Chen likes it, I will definitely help bargain for it, but I can't guarantee how much I can get."

Liu Laosan said with a smile.

"Damn, that's expensive."

Qiu Jibin cursed softly, but he had some daydreams in his mind.

Before, he didn't earn much money a month and had to spend money. Although he seemed to have everything he needed, he actually didn't save much money.

But it’s different now. Although his monthly sales have increased, his income is also higher.

I can easily save a hundred dollars a month.

Although a courtyard house is expensive, it is not impossible for him to buy it if he saves money for a year.

"As for the Siheyuans that are available in the market, as one is sold, one less is sold, and the price cannot fall."

"Have no idea."

Liu Laosan explained with a smile.

"Price is not an issue. I'll come see you on Sunday morning."

After Chen Jianye finished speaking, he looked at Qiu Jibin and said, "Jibin, are you going?"

"Go, let me see what a courtyard house that costs more than a thousand yuan looks like."

Qiu Jibin whispered.

"Then it's settled. Third brother, you continue with your work, we're going back."

Chen Jianye took out a peony and handed it over.

"You're welcome. You're too polite, Master Chen."

"I'll take care of it and make sure it satisfies you."

Liu Laosan bent over to see the guest off.

The two of them got on their bicycles.

"Fuck, Jianye, you have nearly two thousand dollars in cash?"

On the way back, Qiu Jibin couldn't help asking.

"That's about right. It's no problem to buy one."

Chen Jianye said vaguely.

He didn't even tell his wife how much money he had, let alone tell his brothers.

Chen Jianye has a clear view on money. He must have it in his hands and cannot let others know how much he has.

"Tsk, I didn't expect you to be such a big dog owner."

Qiu Jibin said he felt jealous.

"If you keep your business going smoothly, you will be richer than me in the future. Who can say who will be the richest dog owner by then?"

Chen Jianye smiled.

"Hehe, that's true."

Qiu Jibin felt relieved.

Now he is making a fortune every day.

And a stable batch.

The two of them went back to their respective homes.

Chen Jianye returned home and saw Ran Qiuye sitting at the dining table, his head rising and falling as if he was fishing.

"Ah, you're back."

Hearing the sound, Ran Qiuye woke up in shock.

"Why haven't you gone to bed yet? Didn't you say you don't have to wait for me?"

Chen Jianye felt a little distressed.

"I can't sleep until you come back."

Ran Qiuye pouted.

"Okay, I'll sleep with you."

Chen Jianye held Ran Qiuye and put her on the bed.

When he finished washing up and went back to bed, Ran Qiuye was already in a deep sleep.
