Chapter 66 Sister Liu Wants to Sell Her House
Because of Mao Xiaoyu's series of house-buying actions, the demolition notice for this lifetime was posted a few days earlier than in the previous lifetime, but Mao Xiaoyu, as the person involved, had no idea about this at all.
After all, the hospital where Mao Xiaoyu was located was half an hour away from here, so while the area was making a huge fuss today, Mao Xiaoyu, who was at the hospital, had no idea about it at all.
Right now, Mao Xiaoyu is chatting away with Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei.
Because the three of them have established financial ties and company connections, their relationship has grown rapidly in the past few days.
Normally, it's fine if they're trying to get people out of trouble, but if there aren't many people around, a few of them will gather together and chat nonsense.
Right now, around 1 p.m. is a slow time to rescue people. After all, it's almost July, and it's too hot at this time of day. Plus, the hospital isn't open yet, so few people are wandering around outside. So Liu, Guan, Zhang, and Mao Xiaoyu, the four of them, are hiding under the shade of a tree, chatting and joking.
"Xiao Mao, you've only been dating your girlfriend for two days, and I haven't seen her for the past two days. What's going on? Is something wrong?" Lao Guan asked jokingly while smoking a cigarette.
"Don't even mention it. It breaks my heart. We were getting along so well. After all, her parents are in Hong Kong and can't control her. I was even thinking of getting her to take me to Hong Kong someday."
Little did we know, her grandmother saw what was going on between us and called her parents to complain. As a result, her parents called, and she flew back to Hong Kong.
"I think most of these relationships are over. After all, they've been together for a long time, and feelings are bound to fade. With time, who will remember whom?" Mao Xiaoyu feigned helplessness and then used a half-truth to deceive the three of them.
Upon hearing Mao Xiaoyu's embarrassment, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei not only failed to offer comfort but also burst into laughter.
"Who told you to be so malicious, trying to take your girlfriend to Hong Kong? Her parents could tell you weren't a good person at first glance. So they cut the Gordian knot and took your girlfriend away. Your scheme is over now, isn't it?" Sister Liu said bluntly.
"If you ask me, what's done is done. Your girlfriend wasn't even that pretty. I'll introduce you to a prettier one next time, and she'll be from another province. I guarantee she'll be a hundred times better than your current girlfriend," Old Guan chimed in, making up a bunch of nonsense.
"Do you think I don't know whether my girlfriend is pretty or not? She just had braces, so her mouth isn't very pretty right now. Once the braces are removed and her mouth goes back to normal, she'll naturally be pretty. After all, there are photos of her as a child. You can't change your appearance. But it's too late to say anything now."
"By the way, Lao Guan, what do you think of that beautiful woman you introduced? Do you have a picture? If not, show it to me. At least it can fill the emptiness in my heart right now," Mao Xiaoyu teased.
"You don't believe me? I really have a photo here. She's incredibly beautiful." As he said this, Lao Guan took out his wallet from his pocket and then pulled out a photo from it.
Mao Xiaoyu took the photo and looked at it.
I go.
This is clearly a family photo.
Not only was Lao Guan there, but the person standing next to him was clearly his wife, and the person sitting in front was clearly Lao Guan's parents. There were also several people who looked like Lao Guan, who were clearly his siblings.
As for the younger children, some a few years old or teenagers, it was obvious without even looking that they were all Old Guan's own descendants.
Among this generation, there is a woman who is the most beautiful. Well, she is not bad looking, but you can't say she is particularly beautiful. You can only say that she has a good foundation. I wonder how beautiful she would be if she dressed up.
"Old Guan, who is this girl to you?" Mao Xiaoyu asked lecherously.
"She's my younger brother's second daughter. What do you think? Isn't she beautiful? In my opinion, she's much prettier than the girlfriend you're dating. Plus, my niece is hardworking and can do anything."
I'm currently a senior in high school, and my grades are pretty good. Although I might not get into top universities like Tsinghua or Peking University, I should be able to get into a regular undergraduate program.
"If you sponsor her to go to university, and after she graduates, you can have her marry you, what do you think?" Old Guan looked at the photo and said slyly.
"No way, it's not like you're short of money, Lao Guan. What's wrong with giving some money to help your niece go to school? Besides, besides you, her uncle, there's also Dad. Why make things difficult for a young person like me? Moreover, if I spend the money and then your niece says she doesn't like me when she graduates, then all the money I spent will have been wasted." Mao Xiaoyu shook her head and refused.
In his past life, Mao Xiaoyu was like this, supporting his college girlfriend for four years, only to have her turn into a complete mess after graduation. He thinks he can do the same thing again in this life? Old Guan is dreaming.
"I'm just giving you a chance to prove yourself," Old Guan said.
"Forget it, I don't even like that performance. Besides, do you think someone like me is lacking in girlfriends? In a few days, I'll bring a girlfriend over and show you what a heartbreaker I am." Mao Xiaoyu said arrogantly.
"Alright, alright, stop looking down on women like that. Look, I'm a woman right here." Old Guan was about to say something when Sister Liu interrupted.
Upon hearing Sister Liu's words, the three men exchanged glances and immediately backed down, since Sister Liu was someone they couldn't afford to offend.
Seeing that the three of them were silent, Sister Liu finally spoke up: "There was something I wanted to tell you, and since you three are here and have nothing to do, I thought I'd share it. My husband is retiring from this hospital next month, and he will be going to work at a rehabilitation hospital."
This time, I'll be working there for at least six years. Whether I can still work there after six years is uncertain, but six years is definitely required. The rehabilitation hospital is too far from here, and they don't provide dormitories. So, if I want to work there, I either need to rent or buy a house.
In my opinion, if it's just a short stay, renting a house is fine, since we don't plan to stay there for long. But we're going to stay there for six years, which is a long time, so renting a house isn't going to be a good idea. So my husband and I discussed it and decided to buy a house there.
But as you know, this investment is over 500,000 yuan. We didn't have enough money to begin with, and now we're buying a house, so it's even more insufficient. After all, even buying a smaller house will cost a lot of money. So my husband and I discussed it and decided to sell one of the three houses we own near the hospital.
As for why I'm selling this house, it's mainly because my husband is about to retire. People forget you when you leave, and that's true everywhere. So in a few years, I definitely won't have as much influence at this hospital as I do now. With so many properties, I might not be able to find enough tenants.
Since that's the case, we might as well sell our house sooner rather than later. We can get a good price for it. My husband is looking to buy a house over there anyway, so we can use the money from selling this one to buy one there. Perfect.
At this point, Sister Liu paused and looked at Mao Xiaoyu and the other two.
"Old Guan and Old Zhang, you two definitely know about this apartment of mine; it's room 302 in the hospital dormitory."
The room is 72 square meters. I put 7 beds in it. As for the decoration, there's no point in talking about it; after all, this kind of old-fashioned decoration can hardly be called decoration.
Let me tell you the price first: 5000 yuan per square meter. 72 square meters would be 36 yuan. I can cover the transfer fee, but you'll have to pay the other taxes yourself. If the three of you want to buy, you'll have priority. If you don't want to buy, I'll announce it to the public.
As for the money, it would be best to pay in full at once, since I need the money to buy a house. Of course, I'm not so unreasonable as to refuse you; you can use the house to apply for a loan. I can delay it for a month or two to give you time to process the loan application," Sister Liu said again.
Hearing Sister Liu's words, the ones who were most moved were not Lao Guan, but Mao Xiaoyu and Lao Zhang.
After all, Lao Guan already owns one house and is renting another. With two houses in hand, it's already quite difficult for him to run this business.
Don't think this business is easy; it's actually not easy. After all, having two houses and more than ten beds, and keeping them occupied every day, is not a simple task.
After all, Lao Guan doesn't have the same connections as Sister Liu. Sister Liu knows many people and has been working here for a long time, so she has many repeat customers, which is why she has three houses that are always fully occupied.
But how could an ordinary landlord possibly take on so many tenants in one day!
Generally, people who rent these kinds of houses only need to own a maximum of two houses to run this business; they can't handle more than that.
So Lao Guan didn't really have much interest in the house that Sister Liu offered.
Of course, if Lao Guan had money, he would definitely want to come down, since he still has a house he rents.
But Sister Liu needs to pay in full at once. Even if she takes out a loan, she'll definitely have to pay a lot of down payment, and she'll also have to make loan payments every month. Lao Guan still has to earn money to support the family, so where would he get that much money?
So after Sister Liu made her request, Lao Guanxin's desire to buy it was completely extinguished.
Of these, Lao Zhang actually wanted to buy the most, but he still didn't have enough money.
After all, Lao Zhang has only been in this line of work for a short time, and the money he earns each month is needed to support his family, so he won't save much in a year.
Even if I can make a down payment and then take out a loan, I still have to pay the loan every month. How am I supposed to support my family then?
What?
Actually, Lao Guan and Lao Zhang have the same problem: after paying the down payment, they still have to pay off the loan. Once they start paying off the loan, they have less money left to take home, and in the end, it's not enough to support their families.
Therefore, Old Zhang went through all his savings, and his face immediately turned grim, because he really didn't have the money to take the house.
Even if you're unwilling, there's nothing you can do. One is to support your family, and the other is to buy a house. Supporting your family will definitely come first.
As for Mao Xiaoyu, after hearing what Sister Liu said, she also fell into thought, wondering whether she should take over the house.
After all, winning would have both advantages and disadvantages for Mao Xiaoyu.
The advantage is that I can earn more money from this property, but the disadvantage is that I have to waste more time on it.
Now that she's been doing this for a while, Mao Xiaoyu has realized that she can easily rent out her apartment by finding a few tenants in the afternoon. Sometimes she has nothing to do early in the morning, and a lot of time is wasted.
If you have two houses, you can rent out 90% of them in one afternoon, from 12 to 6. This way you have enough time and can earn more money.
But Mao Xiaoyu thought that if that were the case, she would have to come and rent a place every day, which would be a long and painful experience.
After all, the saying "you hate what you do" isn't just a casual remark. Sometimes, doing your job can feel incredibly boring.
Mao Xiaoyu, although she wanted to make money, didn't want to waste an entire afternoon on this. In her opinion, she wouldn't do this kind of work anymore once she had money in the future.
So Mao Xiaoyu is torn about whether or not to buy this house, even though she doesn't have much money in her pocket.
A while ago, Mao Xiaoyu had 215 million yuan, but a few days ago, in order to pay a deposit, she paid 218 million yuan directly. She was actually 3 yuan short of the deposit amount.
The missing 3 yuan was borrowed from the intermediary company. Once she has the money, Mao Xiaoyu will have to pay the intermediary company back.
As for the money Mao Xiaoyu earned in the hospital apartment over the past month or two, it has already been used to buy a computer and a digital camera. It can be said that Mao Xiaoyu doesn't even have 1 yuan left.
Of course, this is not a problem for Mao Xiaoyu. If she really wants to buy it, she can just take the house and go to Li Mingyue to get a loan.
After all, Li Mingyue had been calling Mao Xiaoyu recently, asking: "Do you want to take out a loan? Do you want to borrow more?"
There was no way around it; Li Mingyue had earned over 200,000 yuan in the past month or two. The money came so easily that he was overjoyed.
Now that Mao Xiaoyu is no longer taking out loans, Li Mingyue's income has been directly reduced, which makes him feel bad. Therefore, Li Mingyue actually wishes that Mao Xiaoyu would take out loans from him again.
Therefore, in Mao Xiaoyu's view, acquiring this house was not a problem; it was simply a matter of whether she wanted to acquire it or not.
Another point is that the price is a bit high, 5000 yuan per square meter, which is quite expensive for an older building without an elevator.
Even if Mao Xiaoyu wanted it, she wouldn't be a sucker. If Sister Liu said 4500 per square meter, Mao Xiaoyu would think about it. After all, 4500 per square meter, although a bit high, was still a normal price.
But now it's 5000 yuan per square meter. To be honest, this price is not attractive to Mao Xiaoyu at all.
