A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her

Chapter 345: Running Errands to Buy a House

Gu Qinghuan took her own 120,000 yuan and her mother-in-law's 50,000 yuan and started working.

Because of the times, there are no real estate agents and intermediaries like in later generations. If you want to buy a house, you have to look for it yourself.

Gu Qinghuan doesn't have that much time to search for a needle in a haystack.

She thought about it and came up with an idea.

Isn’t it easy to find out the news about the house?

He Qiang is the best candidate!

He hangs around the market all day, and has met all kinds of people. He has a quick mind and can talk to anyone. It would be right to ask him to do this job.

Even if his own strength was not enough, didn't he still have so many friends? Money makes the world go round, so she just gave him the money.

So she went to He Qiang's house with gifts and told him about it.

Unexpectedly, He Qiang immediately gave her a surprise.

"Sister Qinghuan, do you really want to buy a house? I actually know of a house sale.

I previously pulled in an old man who had a three-story courtyard that he wanted to sell. But because he was arguing with his tenants about the previous rental issue, no one dared to buy his house. Isn't that asking for trouble?

He lowered the price to 2,500, but still no one dared to buy it. "

He Qiang knew that Gu Qinghuan would definitely have a way to deal with this situation, so he boldly recommended this house to her. After all, it was really a good deal.

Gu Qinghuan understood immediately. Isn’t this situation the same as that of his grandfather’s house before?

“I will contact the owner to take a closer look at the house, and if there are no problems, I will take it.

In addition, when you drive your car every day, please pay special attention for me to see if anyone wants to sell a house. I don’t want a building, but I want any other reliable house.

Not only you, but also your friends, as long as they can provide clues, I can give them a ten-dollar introduction fee if the purchase is successful, and also give you a ten-dollar referral fee.

If you help me find a house, I'll give you 20 bucks."

If you want the horse to run, you have to feed it.

Gu Qinghuan knew this truth very well, so the conditions he offered were very generous.

For people like them, it's just a casual question and they can make money easily.

Gu Qinghuan has developed a bunch of workers who receive commissions for himself, freeing himself from simple repetitive work. Both parties are willing to do this.

He Qiang did not ask why, but said that he understood. He has always been sensible and always stops at the right time, which makes people feel comfortable.

The next day, Gu Qinghuan followed him to meet the old man who was selling the house.

The other party was very worried about the house, so when he saw that she was willing to take it over, he was very happy and directly reduced the price by 100 yuan, making the deal at 2,400 yuan. However, he also explained the situation of the house in advance and let her solve it herself.

If it weren't for the wrangling, it would be possible for him to sell the house for three thousand or even four thousand. After all, it is a three-story courtyard.

Gu Qinghuan took over the house and immediately completed the property transfer process.

Then, she found Niu Zhuang again and prepared to use the same trick again, but this time it was her own yard.

Niu Zhuang has not been idle during this period. He has taken on a lot of similar jobs. Using Gu Qinghuan's method, he can almost complete the tasks easily and make some money.

So when Gu Qinghuan came to him for help, he agreed immediately and said he would help for free.

Of course Gu Qinghuan had to pay, but she was impressed by Niu Zhuang for being able to come up with a business of helping collect debts.

The two men followed the same method as last time, using a small amount of profit to "legally" drive out the people living in the courtyard and take over the courtyard again.

Niu Zhuang also brought her some news. Two of the companies he had served before had said they wanted to sell their houses. Unfortunately, everyone was tight on money these days and no one wanted to buy a large house.

And because the hidden dangers have been resolved, the price may be slightly higher.

Gu Qinghuan expressed her interest and asked Niu Zhuang to help her contact the owner of the house.

After the two parties met, they went directly to see the house, and Gu Qinghuan had an idea in mind.

The other party offered two thousand for a small two-story house.

Gu Qinghuan felt that the price was too high and there was still room for price reduction, so he directly lowered it to twelve hundred yuan.

The other party lowered the price a little bit, saying that the price could not be any less than 1,800.

Gu Qinghuan directly stated the price, fifteen hundred yuan, and it was up to you to sell it or not.

After saying that, he was ready to turn around and leave.

The other party may have been under pressure, fearing that it would be difficult to find such an honest buyer after they had the house, so they gritted their teeth and agreed.

Now the government has welfare housing, and everyone lives in the houses allocated by their units. Very few people buy houses, especially a whole house at a time, which is difficult.

The homeowner is unsure what the next time he meets a buyer he will be in trouble for.

So the house was successfully transferred to Gu Qinghuan's name.

There is also another three-story courtyard, but because the location is a bit remote, the house is not well maintained.

The owner of the house asked for 3,500 yuan, but Gu Qinghuan directly lowered the price to 2,000 yuan, which almost made him angry to death.

The other party thought she was joking.

Gu Qinghuan talked a lot and listed a bunch of shortcomings of the house: the location was bad, the surrounding life was inconvenient, there was no public transportation, the house was not well maintained and needed to be repaired before people could live in it, etc.

In the end, the other party had to lower the price to three thousand yuan, but Gu Qinghuan was still not satisfied and lowered the price to two thousand five hundred.

The other party considered it for two days and agreed to the transfer price.

As a result, Gu Qinghuan now has three more courtyard houses under her name, and she only spent 6,400 yuan.

This instantly gave her confidence, and she felt that the purchasing power of the more than 100,000 yuan in her hands was extremely strong.

It's as if I can see the happy days of being a landlady in the future, wearing cross-slippers, carrying a backpack full of keys, and receiving keys wherever I go. Wow, it's beautiful just to think about it.

Niu Zhuang ran around to help her get the two houses, and Gu Qinghuan did not treat him unfairly. She gave him 40 yuan according to the price she offered to He Qiang.

And if there are any houses that can be introduced to her in the future, he can share the twenty-dollar commission for each house sold with his subordinates.

Niu Zhuang thought this job was not bad. He didn't need to scare people or use his hands. He could do it with just his mouth. Besides, he had many brothers under him and everyone could get information. It all made money!

So he decisively asked his brothers to brainstorm and talk to customers when selling things, and then the news came out.

The same goes for He Qiang. He is an upright person, always willing to help others, and has many friends. In the past, no one in the car dealership didn't know him.

He spread the news, and anyone who could provide information about selling a house would earn ten dollars for each house sold. Everyone rushed to tell him the news they knew.

He was also a particular person and did not tell Gu Qinghuan the news immediately. Instead, he went to the house himself to find out more. After confirming that the other party wanted to sell the house and finding out the approximate price, he found his brother and sister's notebook and wrote it down.

This would save Gu Qinghuan a lot of time invisibly, and then they could just negotiate the price directly, which would be worthy of the price Gu Qinghuan offered him.

With the combined efforts of everyone, Gu Qinghuan quickly acquired more than 20 houses.

Niu Zhuang and He Qiang also made a small profit from her.

Niu Zhuang also helped with several special businesses, charging one hundred yuan each time, and the two became familiar with each other.

Seeing Gu Qinghuan so enthusiastic about buying a house, he also had an idea in his mind. Cheng Fusheng often told him to learn from smart people. Gu Qinghuan should be considered a smart person, right?

Why did Gu Qinghuan buy so many houses?

Or he could buy one too?

In fact, he had fed his entire family over the years and had saved a lot of money, enough to buy a house a long time ago. However, it would be boring to live alone in a big house, so he had been living in a small alley.

Gu Qinghuan's behavior gave him an idea, so he bought a house himself. He followed Gu Qinghuan's example and did not live in it but rented it out to collect rent, which was also quite beautiful.

He Qiang was the same. When he saw Gu Qinghuan hoarding so many houses, he also became interested. However, he wanted to buy some to live in himself, and he just received news about two houses.

The four members of their family have been squeezed into one large room, which is not a solution, especially since the eldest sister is growing up and really needs her own room. It is no longer suitable for her to live in the same room with grown men like them.

He counted the money in his hand and found that he actually had nearly a thousand yuan in savings. Add to that the commission that Gu Qinghuan had recently given him, which was more than a hundred yuan, and the total was more than a thousand, one hundred yuan.

Because it was his own car, he did not need to hand over the money he earned over the past year or so to the car dealership. Even if he picked up twenty passengers a day, he could still earn three or four dollars, which works out to nearly a hundred dollars a month.

With this money, he used it for necessary living expenses, tuition for his older brother and sister, and medical treatment for his younger brother. He did not dare to touch any other penny and saved it well. He still wore the most worn clothes and was reluctant to buy anything for himself all year round.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he earns a lot. It's because he is popular, sweet-talker, and willing to work hard. He goes out before dawn and returns home only when the moon is high in the sky.

It's all hard-earned money.

Buying a house is a big deal, and he couldn't make up his mind. Thinking that Gu Qinghuan was quite knowledgeable about these things and was very knowledgeable when it came to bargaining, he came to ask Gu Qinghuan after get off work.

Gu Qinghuan saw that he had just got off work and was hungry, so she asked Wang Xiaowei to make him a bowl of noodles.

"Sister Qinghuan, I came here today because I want to trouble you with something.

Seeing you buy a house also made me want to do that. I have 1,100 yuan in savings now and want to buy a house for myself.

It's not a good idea for a family to squeeze into one big room now. Can you give me some advice? "He Qiang glanced at Wang Xiaowei's back and said.

Gu Qinghuan didn't expect that he would actually influence the people around him. It would be a good idea to buy a house so that he can just lie down and live comfortably in the future.

She said with interest: "Sure, tell me!"

He Qiang scratched his head embarrassedly: "Yesterday, Xiao Liuzi and Da Qiang found two more houses, one with one entrance and the other with two entrances.

I've asked, and the owner of this house wants 1,300 yuan. I estimate the price can be reduced a bit, so I should be able to get it with the money I have.

Another apartment with two courtyards is asked by the owner for 2,800 yuan, and I estimate that I can get it for just over 2,000 yuan.

The first house is actually big enough for us to live in now, but I’m considering that my two younger brothers will start their own families in the future, and it might be too small in a few years, so I want to buy it all at once, but I can’t afford that much money for the second house at the moment.

However, Mr. Hu, who was lending money at interest, said that he could lend me one thousand yuan at the lowest interest rate, and I would just have to pay him thirteen thousand yuan after one year.

So I want to ask you, which one should I buy now? I can’t make up my mind. "

"You two younger brothers are getting married? So you won't get married too?" Gu Qinghuan asked back.

He Qiang didn’t know what he was thinking about. He lowered his head and smiled shyly without saying anything.

Kids these days are so innocent.

“Your little brother may have to rely on you in the future, so a small house won’t do.

If you don't see me when you look up, you will see me when you look down, which easily leads to conflicts.

If you want to get it all at once, you should buy a house with two courtyards. I think your eldest brother will be a good boy who can support himself in the future, and your eldest sister will not stay at home after she gets married.

All you have to take care of is yourself and your little brother.

Buy a house with two entrances, and then one family can live in the front yard and the other in the back yard, so they won’t interfere with each other, and you can still look after your brother.”

People nowadays live a simple life and think that once they buy a house they will live there for the rest of their lives.

Gu Qinghuan mainly felt that this was a rare opportunity. In a few years, housing prices would slowly go up, so now would be the best time to buy.

He Qiang seemed to be thinking about something.

What Gu Qinghuan said made a lot of sense. A house is to be lived in for a lifetime, so it has to be done right the first time.

He secretly calculated in his mind that as long as he tightened his belt and worked harder, he would be able to pay back the money in a year or two. He was very happy at the thought of being able to live in his own house in the future.

Gu Qinghuan gave him another reassurance: "Don't worry, we are siblings after all. I will pay for any money the house needs without interest. You can pay it back anytime you have money. Don't worry."

He Qiang has been with Gu Qinghuan for a long time and knows that she is sincerely helping him, so he doesn't hesitate.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, thank you Sister Qinghuan, but you still have to pay the interest. I will go with the price Mr. Hu quoted me. I will borrow one thousand and I will pay you thirteen thousand when the time comes."

Compared to the businessman Mr. Hu, he would rather lend Gu Qinghuan money, without being so strict and able to pay it back whenever he wants.

Gu Qinghuan also knew his stubborn temper, and it was useless to say anything. In the end, he still returned the money that he had promised to give him.

"That's fine, but I don't want your interest either. I'll use the interest as your salary. I have some work that I need your help with."

"What kind of work?" He Qiang asked curiously.

“I’ve bought so many houses, I can’t just leave them empty and wait for them to break down, right?

I want to rent out all these houses and collect rent on time every month, but I am too busy to manage them, and I don’t trust anyone else, so I thought of you.

You can do these jobs while driving your car.

I'll give you a salary of thirty a month first, and if your workload increases in the future, I'll raise your salary, how about that?"

He Qiang's eyes lit up, not only because he had a lucrative job, but also because of Gu Qinghuan's trust in him.

He knew that Gu Qinghuan already owned more than 20 houses, and the monthly rent was no small amount of money. He felt very happy that she trusted him so wholeheartedly.
