Chapter 372 I Want Both Rooms
“There doesn’t seem to be much difference between these two rooms.”
Qiu Jibin stood in the yard and looked around.
"Master Qiu, this courtyard is a little small, covering an area of about 150 square meters."
"Of course, even though it's small, it has everything you need, so it's actually pretty much the same to live in."
"The seller is asking 1,500 yuan for this courtyard, and it's nearly a mile away from the Forbidden City."
"I think it's more cost-effective to buy this set."
Liu Laosan said he was introducing him to Qiu Jibin, but he was actually introducing him to Chen Jianye.
This house is two hundred yuan cheaper than the previous one.
Two hundred yuan is not a small amount of money.
In later times, it would be equivalent to a house worth 17 million and a house worth 15 million.
"See what's inside the house."
Chen Jianye appeared calm on the surface.
"Master Chen, Master Qiu, please come in."
Liu Laosan pushed open the door of the living room and made a gesture to invite someone in.
The layout of the house is similar to the first room.
Chen Jianye even suspected that the two houses were built by the same bricklayer.
After walking through the main hall and master bedroom, Chen Jianye looked at the two side rooms, then stood in the courtyard, thinking quietly.
This small courtyard located in Chaoyangmen has the advantage of being cheaper and a few hundred meters closer to Sijiu City. Its disadvantage is that it occupies a relatively small area.
The one at Dongzhimen covers a larger area and is more comfortable to live in, but its disadvantage is that it is two hundred yuan more expensive and is a few hundred meters away from the Forbidden City.
To be honest, both courtyards are very good and the so-called shortcomings are not shortcomings at all.
Chen Jianye wants to get both.
But he didn't have enough money.
The two rooms cost a total of three thousand two hundred yuan, and he only had a little over two thousand nine hundred yuan.
There is still a little over two hundred left.
Originally, Chen Jianye had more than three thousand dollars in his hands. He felt it was a waste to keep too much money, so he bought several antiques.
I bought some more cigarettes and alcohol, and also got ready for the wedding.
All in all, it cost nearly a thousand dollars.
“You only regret not having enough money when you need it.”
Chen Jianye couldn't help but sigh.
I originally thought that with my ability to make money, I would never run into a problem of being short of money in this day and age.
The only thing that worries me is that I can't spend the money efficiently.
Unexpectedly, he actually ran into a situation where he was short of money.
"Hey, isn't the money enough?"
"If it's not enough, I can lend you some. You can use the dividends from your shares or the grain to pay off the debt."
Qiu Jibin said tremblingly.
"How much can I borrow?"
Chen Jianye's eyes lit up slightly.
I am fortunate that I am also a person with industry and reputation.
Since he has property and a good reputation, people around him naturally dare to lend him money without worrying that he will run away.
"I can only lend you three hundred yuan, because I only have a little over three hundred yuan on hand."
Qiu Jibin said somewhat embarrassedly.
"You have such a big business, but you only have this little money?"
Chen Jianye looked unconvinced.
"The business is big, and the stall is big too. I have more than 2,000 in inventory alone."
"I can't do business without inventory."
Qiu Jibin said helplessly.
"More than three hundred is fine. You can lend me three hundred yuan and I'll use the dividends to pay off the debt. Just figure it out."
Chen Jianye thought for a moment and said.
I want to buy two houses for myself, but I still need a little over 200 yuan. After borrowing 300 yuan, it will be enough.
"No problem, come back with me later and I'll give it to you."
Qiu Jibin agreed readily.
"Third brother, help me bargain with the residents of these two courtyards, and try to get thirty or fifty yuan off the original price."
"I'll pay you the thirty yuan agency fee we agreed on for each room. After we agree on the transfer date, you can come directly to the steel mill or my home to find me."
Chen Jianye arranged.
"Okay, I'll definitely bargain for you... Hey, do you want both yards?"
Liu Laosan answered very quickly, but halfway through his words, his brain reacted and he asked in shock.
"Yes, I want both."
Chen Jianye affirmed.
"You want both?!"
Qiu Jibin lost his voice.
"Yes, both rooms are good. I'm too lazy to choose, so I'll just buy them."
Chen Jianye said with a smile.
"Fuck, I thought you wanted to buy a yard but you didn't have any money, you fucking want them all."
Qiu Jibin was so envious that his mouth was filled with jealousy.
That would be 3,200 yuan for two yards. Even if he sold all the goods he had, he still wouldn't get that much.
It turns out that even though he made money by risking going to jail, he still didn't have as much money as Chen Jianye.
"All are needed. It will be convenient for me to arrange."
"No need to hide it from my wife."
A cunning smile appeared on Chen Jianye's lips.
There are two courtyards, the smaller one is for You Fengxia's family to live in, and the larger one is for herself and Ran Qiuye to live in.
The key is that the distance is very close, only a few hundred meters.
And the location is good, convenient for going out for a stroll.
If I don’t buy it this time, I don’t know if I will have the chance next time.
"Master Chen, I have taken note of everything you told me to do. I will definitely give you a definite answer next week."
Liu Laosan was also excited.
If both houses are transferred smoothly, he can get a commission of 60 yuan.
Sixty dollars is a lot of money for him.
"Well, do your job well. You are the person introduced by Jibin, and I will not treat you unfairly."
Chen Jianye nodded slightly.
A group of three people walked out of the yard.
"Jianye, how do you make so much money?"
Qiu Jibin couldn't figure it out.
In other words, he guessed some ideas but was not sure.
That is, all the money earned from the food that Chen Jianye provided him was in Chen Jianye's hands.
It was not as Qiu Jibin had initially guessed, that Chen Jianye just turned his hand.
"Everyone has their own secrets, Jibin, you supported me when I bought a house, and I will support you when you buy a house."
Chen Jianye patted Qiu Jibin on the shoulder.
Even if it was his own wife, Chen Jianye would never tell her the secret, so he would never tell Qiu Jibin.
This is his bottom line.
"Well, you really gave me a shock this time."
"More than three thousand dollars, you really are, fuck me."
Qiu Jibin licked his lips, but still found it hard to accept.
This guy is so fucking rich.
The key is how much Chen Jianye spent before. Qiu Jibin knew it clearly, including the expenses for the wedding, the expenses for buying antiques, and the subsequent expenses for buying cigarettes and alcohol.
It was almost like a courtyard house was smashed.
Who would have thought that Chen Jianye could afford to buy two courtyard houses.
"Real rich people are much richer than us. What do we have compares to that?"
"If you want to make money, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, Hong Kong City, do you know?"
Chen Jianye was riding his bike and chatting with Qiu Jibin.
"I've heard of it. Isn't it in the southernmost part? It's thousands of kilometers away from here."
"It takes more than two days to get there by train."
Qiu Jibin replied.
"Hong Kong City is the real golden empire. We are just barely making ends meet now. If we really want to make a fortune, we have to go there."
Chen Jianye said with a smile.
"We are doing fine here, why are we running so far?"
"Even if we succeed somewhere, it's useless if no one knows we have succeeded."
Qiu Jibin was puzzled.
"Haha, it's good to go to Hong Kong City, and it will be even better when we come back."
"But this is all several years or even decades away. It's getting off topic."
Chen Jianye laughed.
Qiu Jibin was confused. He felt that Chen Jianye's performance was very different from before, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
The two returned to the Qiu family.
Qiu Jibin went out with a cloth bag, took out a stack of big unity from it, and quickly stuffed it into Chen Jianye's cloth bag.
"Three hundred dollars, not a cent less."
"When I buy a house, you have to lend me money. Don't forget that I sold everything I had to support you."
"Haha, I can't forget it."
Chen Jianye waved his hand and rode away quickly.
