Chapter 162 is one step closer.
Chunxiang took a step back, looking bewildered, then gasped and stammered:
"You...you want to buy the house next door too?"
Hua Lichu didn't say whether she wanted to or not, only saying, "Let's see."
"Sure! Sure! I'll take you there right away."
Chunxiang was even more enthusiastic than before, grabbing Hua Lichu's arm and leading her to the next room, saying as they walked:
"There's a child who's unable to walk, so he usually stays at home..."
The two courtyards were very close, separated only by two walls, and we arrived quickly.
Chunxiang knocked on the door, and a voice quickly came from inside: "Who is it?"
Immediately afterwards, a rustling sound came from inside.
Chunxiang explained, "The other children are worried about his safety, so they usually leave one of the younger children at home."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the old wooden door made a "branching" sound and was opened from the inside.
A child, so thin that at first glance one could only notice his eyes, peeked out from the doorway.
She glanced around warily, but when she realized it was Chunxiang knocking, the wariness in her eyes quickly faded, replaced by timidity.
"Aunt Chunxiang, is there something you need?"
Is your older brother home?
Not here.
"Xiao Qi, who is it?"
A slightly older boy, wearing clothes that were clearly much larger than his own size, limped out of the house.
He glanced warily at Hua Lichu beside Chunxiang: "Is there something you need?"
Chunxiang smiled and said, "When is your older brother coming back? I need to talk to him about something."
"They won't be back until dark."
Chunxiang opened her mouth, wanting the two children to open the door so that Hualichu could go in and see the house.
But Hua Lichu grabbed her arm and stopped her.
“I live in the nearest rental house to the vegetable market. I'd like to buy your house. When he comes back, can you come and visit me together?”
The two children's expressions immediately turned cold.
Faced with Hua Lichu's gentle question, she nodded politely and said solemnly, "I will tell my older brother when he comes back."
"Okay! Close the door properly!"
Chunxiang looked at the two children, hesitant to speak, and sighed.
In her opinion, although the house was nice, it wasn't the most important thing for these children.
"There are a total of 7 children living here. The eldest and the fourth child are the homeowner's grandchildren, while the other 5 were adopted."
Seeing that Hua Lichu was listening, Chunxiang continued, "The bigger one just now was the second son, a boy, but you saw it too, his legs..."
There was also a fifth child, who only had one arm; the rest were girls.
Chunxiang went on and on, telling me everything she knew.
Hua Lichu nodded, indicating that she understood.
"Their house isn't urgent, but you can make decisions about your house and vegetable garden, right?"
"can!"
"I heard that your house is not very lucky and has been uninhabited for many years. It will need to be renovated if you buy it, but it is indeed quite large. Can you buy it for 4000 yuan?"
Chunxiang shook her head frantically: "Girl, the price I quoted your aunt yesterday was the best price I could get."
Yes, my house isn't very auspicious, but it's in a good location, right by the roadside, and it's spacious! Selling it for 5000 is already a rock-bottom price; I really can't go any lower.
"The courtyards that used to be near the square, even those smaller than mine, cost over eight thousand."
Hua Lichu smiled and said, "But their courtyard is habitable. For you, it's no different from buying a piece of land."
Besides, whether a location is good or bad is a matter for the future; we'll have to wait until the surrounding area has developed before making any decisions.
But whether this area can develop, and how it can develop, is anyone's guess.
So now, your yard can only be considered a village house by the roadside at best.
Hua Antao angrily tugged at Hua Lichu's sleeve: "You know this house can't be lived in? I already said, instead of spending several thousand yuan to buy this yard, we should save up more and buy an apartment near the government square."
Hua Heqiu glanced at Hua Antao, who had an angry expression, and was a little puzzled.
Didn't her father say that buying this house was the result of discussions between the three of them? Judging from Taozi's tone, she doesn't want to?
Hua and Qiu also disagreed with Hua Lichu's purchase of the courtyard, and as if they had found an ally, they loudly proclaimed:
"Peach is right! What's the difference between spending thousands of dollars to buy this yard and throwing money into the water?"
"No, throwing a few thousand dollars into the water would at least make a sound, but buying this yard is pure foolishness! Not even a peep."
Hua Yuansheng glared at Hua Heqiu.
Hua and Qiu shrank back, stubbornly saying, "Why are you glaring at me? Isn't that right?"
Seeing that her aunt was willing to play the bad cop, Hua Antao was happy to relax and simply pushed her aside, letting Hua and Qiu do as they pleased.
Hua Lichu hesitated, "Should I go back and think about it some more?"
Chunxiang panicked: "No! What's there to consider? I'll lower the price for you, how about 4900?"
She couldn't let a sucker get away so easily.
Hua and Qiu scoffed, "4900? What's the difference between 5000 and 4900? Pear, listen to your aunt. If you really want to buy a house, let's go take a look at the government square area."
After saying that, she grabbed Hua Lichu's arm and started to leave.
Chunxiang was also anxious, grabbing Hualichu's other arm and refusing to let go.
"4800! It's dropped by 200."
"Pear, if you want to treat me like your aunt, then listen to me and come on!"
"4700!"
"Do you think you're at a wholesale market selling goods? You're offering discounts of 100 each time."
Chunxiang gritted her teeth and made a firm decision: "4500! That's the lowest I can go! I won't sell it for any less!"
"The vegetable garden by the gate?"
"Vegetable plot 1500!"
"1000!"
Hua Lichu shook the bag she was carrying: "If you agree, we'll go to the Housing Authority right now!"
As he spoke, he turned away and quietly took out a wad of cash.
Chunxiang's eyes lit up instantly: "Okay! 5500 it is! I'll sell it!"
"Bring your husband and father-in-law along!"
"why?"
"What if I give you the money, and your father-in-law insists he didn't know anything about it and keeps causing trouble for me every day?"
Chunxiang thought about it and agreed.
Fearing that things might get complicated if they waited too long, they immediately went home, dragged Old Man Xu and Xu Gousheng along, and accompanied Hua Lichu and the others to the Housing Management Bureau.
Hua and Qiu stood there, dazed, touching the back of their heads.
No?
She came to stop Pear from buying the house, but somehow she ended up facilitating the deal instead?
The staff at the housing authority were shocked when they heard that Hua Lichu wanted to buy another house.
Didn't this girl just buy seven shops? Why is she buying a house now?
Hua Lichu didn't care how shocked others were.
She held the guarantee, property deed, and land certificate in her hands, beaming with joy.
Wow, she's one step closer to her dream of becoming a landlady!
