Chapter 64: The Hidden Rich Second Generation? (Please Read)
“It’s good to buy a house!”

When Lin Jiao heard that Zhou Qing was planning to buy a house, she immediately became interested.

She couldn't help but say, "Actually, in the current housing market, selling a house is too much of a loss. Buying a house is the best option. In my opinion, the housing prices in Tanzhou have fallen to a certain level. After all, it's the provincial capital. Apart from those luxury homes, ordinary housing prices have no room to fall further. Wait... I will definitely buy two more houses later."

When Zhou Qing heard her mention "luxury house", his heart moved and he asked, "Sister Lin, do you think the price of luxury houses in Tanzhou will continue to fall?"

Lin Jiao nodded. "Of course. Most ordinary homes in Tanzhou are just over ten thousand yuan, with some going for nine or eight thousand yuan per square meter. Many resettlement communities are only six or seven thousand yuan per square meter, but how much are those luxury homes selling for? Twenty, thirty, or even thirty-five or forty thousand yuan per square meter. There's definitely more to come... In fact, second-hand housing prices are already falling. Let me show you a screenshot that's been circulating in the real estate industry these days."

She picked up her phone again and sent a picture to Zhou Qingqing on WeChat.

Zhou Qing clicked on it and saw several house transaction reminder notifications, which read:

Congratulations to Zhang Xi from Group B of the Poly Cullinan flagship store for closing a deal on a 191.45 square meter apartment at Poly West Bund for 299 million RMB. Please stay tuned for the transaction progress...

Zhou Qing knew about Poly West Coast. When he was looking for large flats with sea views, he came across this community. It was one of the many high-end communities in Binjiang. He remembered that the third phase of houses in this community was on sale, and the housing prices mentioned on those platforms were all a little over 20,000 yuan.

I quickly estimated in my mind that the house was sold for only over 15,000 yuan per square meter!

"My cousin works at an agency, and this property was listed by his colleague. They're all saying that while this is an isolated case, many luxury properties will likely be priced below 30,000 yuan, and some may be around 20,000 yuan."

Zhou Qing agreed, but he was thinking about buying a house.

His goal was to buy a large flat with a good river view, but during this period he took the time to look at the information sent by several real estate salesmen. They were selling houses in the second and third phases, and the river view was not as good as the houses in the first phase.

Now that I heard this news again, I thought, it is not necessary to buy a new house. If I can find a good second-hand house, I can consider it.

He immediately said to Lin Jiao, "Sister Lin, can you give me your cousin's WeChat?"

Lin Jiao: "Of course, you can contact him if you want to buy a house."

After saying that, Lin Jiao used her mobile phone to push a WeChat message called "Tanzhou Zengming Real Estate".

After the two of them agreed to go to Rongdonghai Community to look at houses together tomorrow morning, Zhou Qing went upstairs and returned to his residence.

He took a shower first, then found the paper version of Journey to the West from under the bed and sat down at the desk, ready to continue reading. But before that, he checked his phone and found that Lin Jiao's cousin had accepted his friend request and sent him two messages:

"Sorry, I was in a meeting at the company just now and wasn't looking at my phone."

"You must be my cousin's friend, Mr. Zhou. She just messaged me and said, 'I'm Zeng Ming. If you need to buy a property, just come and talk to me.'"

Zhou Qing was reading and too lazy to type, so he replied directly via voice: "Hello, I really want to buy a house. Do you have any houses with good river views? If so, please recommend a few to come and have a look."

As an agent, you are basically online at any time as long as it is not too late.

Zeng Ming replied quickly, also in voice, with a hint of Changde's accent: "Yes, of course. Mr. Zhou, if you want to see a river view apartment, do you have any requirements for the location and size?"

"The location shouldn't be too remote, the surrounding facilities should be good, and other things shouldn't be too special. The apartment should have at least three or four bedrooms, preferably larger, and most importantly, a good river view."

Zeng Ming was stunned when he heard his request. He thought, didn't my cousin say that Mr. Zhou was young and had just graduated from college, so buying a house was a necessity? Why did this feel wrong? But he didn't think much about it. After all, the better and more expensive the house the other party bought, the higher his agency fee would be. He immediately replied, "Okay, Mr. Zhou, please wait a moment. I'll send you the house right away."

Zhou Qing's speed in reading "Journey to the West" was the slowest he had ever read since he got the panel, so slow that it was almost like careful reading.

Before I finished reading a page, Zeng Ming sent me six selected properties.

He paused for a moment and opened them one by one to check.

First, we focused on the river view of each house, and eliminated those with bad views. In the end, only two were left, a three-bedroom house of 110 square meters and a four-bedroom house of 135 square meters.

“These two apartments have nice river views, but they’re a bit small.”

"Although I will definitely buy a villa later, this is just for living in, not as a transitional house. I will definitely become richer and richer in the future, and I will definitely have both a villa and a large flat."

Zhou Qing rejected the remaining two apartments and sent a voice message to Zeng Ming: "Are there any river-view apartments in Poly Tianrui and Riverside Bay?"

Zeng Ming looked strange when he heard the voice message and immediately replied, "Yes, Mr. Zhou, I'll find it for you right away."

After sending it, he was selecting properties on his computer while calling his cousin Lin Jiao. When the call was connected, he asked directly, "Sister Jiao, did you get the information wrong? The Mr. Zhou you introduced me to isn't looking for a house that's just for basic needs. He wants a large flat with a good river view!"

Large flat with river view?
Lin Jiao raised her eyebrows. In her opinion, Zhou Qing was just a college graduate, but he was a bit handsome and in great shape. According to her best friend Li Wanxiu and her own eavesdropping, he was quite good in that aspect... As for his family background, judging from his usual attire and the cheap small room he rented here, he should be of average appearance.

So when I heard him say he wanted to buy a house, I subconsciously thought it would be a common situation where he would ask his family for a down payment and then pay the mortgage himself. This is what most young people do nowadays.

Did you make a mistake?

Although the housing prices in Tanzhou are low, the current housing market is declining, including luxury houses such as large flats with river views. However, no matter how low the prices go, they will still be much more expensive than ordinary houses.

A house will definitely cost more than four or five million.

Lin Jiao suddenly felt that she was a little unable to understand this young man Zhou Qing.

She chatted with her cousin for a few words, hung up the phone, and immediately called Li Wanxiu again.

The call was connected when the ringing was almost over.

"Sister, if you have something to say, please tell me now. I'm still working overtime and I have so much work to do!"

"It's about your male friend Zhou Qing."

Lin Jiao explained the situation to Li Wanxiu and then asked, "Do you think he's some hidden rich second-generation?"

Because it was related to Zhou Qing, Li Wanxiu paused her typing. After listening carefully, she replied, "Whether he's a rich second-generation or a poor second-generation, I don't care. I just like hanging out with him after work. It's relaxing and comfortable... Sister, I'm really too busy. I won't talk to you anymore. I'm hanging up."
