Chapter 403 Going to see the new house
Chen Jianye got the title deed and the two keys to the gate and returned to his original seat.
Mr. Chu chatted with Liu Laosan for a few words, bowed to Chen Jianye, and turned to leave.
Very neat and tidy.
"Master Chen, congratulations! You have bought a courtyard house in our city at such a young age."
"In the future, the whole family will live comfortably, get promoted, get rich, and have children."
Liu Laosan said nice things.
"I appreciate your words, Third Brother."
Chen Jianye greeted people with a smile.
The two men praised each other for a few words, and Liu Laosan suggested going out to see if the owner of the other Chaoyangmen household had arrived.
Chen Jianye and Qiu Jibin sat there waiting.
After a while.
"Master Chen, this is Master Cui, the owner of the house."
"Mr. Cui, this is Mr. Chen, the customer who took a fancy to your house."
Liu Laosan brought in a middle-aged man and introduced him enthusiastically.
Chen Jianye stood up and shook hands.
The next step is still the same set of processes as before.
Liu Laosan confirmed the price of the house as 1,466 yuan, confirmed that both parties had brought all the information, and stood in line.
When it was his turn to come to the window, Liu Laosan called Chen Jianye and Cui Ye, and the two parties officially completed the transaction under the witness of Liu Laosan.
What followed was Liu Laosan’s happiest moment.
Mr. Cui and Chen Jianye each took out thirty yuan and handed it to Liu Laosan.
"Thank you, gentlemen. If you need any housing in the future, feel free to contact me."
"I'll give you a discount."
Liu Laosan grinned with joy.
"Easy to say."
Mr. Cui smiled faintly, did not chat with Liu Laosan, and left with the money he had just earned.
After a while, Chen Jianye took the house deed and put it in a cloth bag.
The two properties were traded successfully.
"Mr. Qiu, Mr. Chen, thank you for your care. I will host you at noon today. Let's go and have a good meal together."
"It's a gift from our heart, please don't refuse it."
Liu Laosan cordially invited us.
In just this morning, he earned 120 yuan.
Any businessman who is slightly sensible knows that he cannot keep all the money he earns in his own pocket, but must share the profit with the person who introduced him to the business.
Otherwise, why would people refer business here?
Those who eat alone will not be able to keep their business for long.
Chen Jianye hesitated slightly.
"Third brother, since you have spoken, we two brothers must give you face."
Qiu Jibin agreed readily.
Chen Jianye didn't say anything, he just wanted to have a meal. He had to eat when he returned to the courtyard or the cafeteria.
The three of them came to the same place.
Liu Laosan ordered three meat dishes and a meat soup, and took out half a bottle of wine from the cloth bag.
"I have to work in the afternoon and report to my boss, so I can't drink."
Chen Jianye quickly refused.
It is a strict rule in the steel rolling mill that drinking is not allowed during working hours.
The requirements may not be too strict in other units, but in heavy industrial units such as steel rolling mills, this is an iron rule.
Many bloody incidents had occurred before.
Even leaders have to abide by this rule.
When leaders from other sister factories came to the steel rolling mill for research, they would also have drinks after get off work.
"I don't drink either. I'm very busy right now. Drinking will delay my work. I'd rather eat something good and feel better."
Qiu Jibin also waved his hand.
"Well, I'll do whatever you two masters say."
Liu Laosan put the bottle of wine into the cloth bag, took out a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes, and distributed cigarettes to the two men.
"Wow, great, San'er, you've even started smoking Zhonghua cigarettes."
Qiu Jibin was slightly surprised.
"Master Qiu, to be honest, you two are my honored guests, and I must entertain you with the best."
Liu Laosan took out another pack of Daqianmen from his cloth bag and put it on the table: "I usually smoke this."
"You have a lot of potential, you are a good business guy."
Qiu Jibin gave a thumbs up.
It doesn’t matter what kind of cigarettes you smoke in your daily life, but you must carry good cigarettes in your bag so that you can hold your ground at the critical moment.
"No, no, there is still a lot I need to learn from Master Qiu."
Liu Laosan flattered with a smile.
Chen Jianye also felt that Liu Laosan was a good businessman.
Although he is more than ten years older than Qiu Jibin, he calls him "Grandpa Qiu" fluently and speaks in a flattering manner.
Who doesn't like such a person?
Soon, three dishes and a soup were served.
The three grown men opened up.
When he finally paid the bill, Liu Laosan spent more than seven yuan, and he also put in a lot of grain and meat coupons.
Liu Laosan had a smiling face the whole time, without any change in expression.
Chen Jianye noticed Liu Laosan's expression. Although Liu Laosan earned 120 yuan in the morning, he spent nearly ten yuan on a meal, but he remained calm.
I have to say, this is a skill.
"Third brother, you arranged this meal very well. I will introduce you to other brothers to buy a house tomorrow."
Qiu Jibin put his arm around Liu Laosan and went out.
"Mr. Qiu, you introduce guests to me, which means you think highly of me. For anyone you introduce, I will choose the best house for him and charge the lowest price."
Liu Laosan patted his chest and made the promise.
The three of them walked out of the same place and went back to their homes.
Chen Jianye did not ride his bike back to the steel rolling mill. Instead, he wandered around the alleys of Sijiucheng for a while and finally came to a bungalow.
The door of the bungalow was open.
There was an old lady in the room pasting matchboxes.
"Old lady, we meet again."
"I'm here to see Comrade You Fengxia."
Chen Jianye parked the car and walked in, talking in a familiar manner.
"Who are you, young man?"
The old lady looked up and squinted at Chen Jianye, somewhat unable to recognize him.
"I am You Fengxia's friend. I sent Comrade You Fengxia here once before when you lived in another hut."
Chen Jianye said with a smile.
"Oh, I remember now, you're still riding a new bike, young man?"
The old lady's cloudy eyes lit up.
At that time, she also advised You Fengxia to seize the opportunity, as it was not easy to find young and promising men.
"Yeah, I'm parked at the door."
Chen Jianye walked out of the house and pushed his bicycle to the main entrance of the bungalow so that the old lady could see it clearly.
"Fengxia, Fengxia."
The old lady stood up and shouted towards the bed in the room.
You Fengxia opened her eyes dazedly and saw a familiar figure in front of her, looking at her with a smile on his face.
"what?"
You Fengxia was startled, and then blinked to confirm that the person in front of her was indeed Chen Jianye. She asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
"Would you like to go see the new house?"
Chen Jianye took out the key, put his finger into the key ring and swung it casually.
"go with!"
You Fengxia suddenly became alert and her eyes sparkled.
"I'll wait for you outside."
Chen Jianye looked up and down at You Fengxia with interest and smiled: "It's better to wash it clean."
After saying that, he turned and walked out of the house.
You Fengxia's face turned slightly red. She had already foreseen what might happen next.
Having come this far, she had no intention of turning back.
Having decided on Chen Jianye, one must naturally stick to this path until the end, not to mention that this path is very likely to be a bright road.
Relying solely on her own strength, she could at best provide her family with enough food to eat.
If you want to take root in this city and become a real city dweller, five or eight years of hard work may not be enough.
Who knows if there will be any unexpected changes during such a long period of time.
For You Fengxia, the road to heaven is right before her.
Without any hesitation, she got out of bed, washed up, and wiped her body with a towel.
Before going out, You Fengxia took another piece of grayish-white cloth and put it into the cloth bag.
