Chapter 103 Buying a house
The owner of the house is Qi Yunsheng, who is one year older than Xu Shiyan. He went to Donggang in 1968 and lived in Donggang for ten years.
I took the college entrance examination last year and was admitted to the Bethune University of Medicine and Science. After the year, I have to report to the school.
Qi Yunsheng wanted to take his wife and children back to the provincial capital, so the house here had to be disposed of.
As the check-in time drew closer, he became more and more anxious.
"Brother Xu, four hundred yuan is really the lowest.
Don’t think my house is made of adobe, but it’s neatly tidied up. Even if you live in it for another ten or twenty years, you’ll be fine.
Besides, how big is the surrounding area? Living is also spacious. "
It could be seen that Qiao Yunsheng was really in a hurry to sell the house, and he asked for 400 yuan, and he didn't ask for more.
"I just want to take Xiujuan's mother and son with me, otherwise, to be honest, I really don't want to come here.
Brother Xu, take a look around the front and back of your house, this place is worth buying. "
Xu Shiyan had heard about Qiao Yunsheng, and although he had never met him, he admired him.
In this era, many educated youths abandoned their wives and children in order to return to the city.
Qiao Yunsheng is worthy of respect for being able to take his daughter-in-law along without disliking her daughter-in-law in the countryside when she is admitted to university.
"Brother Qi, don't say anything, this house is only 400, I bought it."
Xu Shiyan waved his hand, not intending to embarrass Qi Yunsheng.
Since the house is promising and he has money in his hand, don't miss the thirty or twenty, it's time to make friends.
Qi Yunsheng didn't expect Xu Shiyan to be so happy at all, he thought he would have to negotiate the price again, so he was stunned.
"Buy it directly for 400 yuan?" Qi Yunsheng asked in disbelief.
"Well, just buy it directly, Brother Qi, you are a happy person, and I don't care about it.
In this way, you have found the neighbors and the cadres of the brigade to be witnesses. Let's write the contract on the spot, okay? "
Xu Shiyan is also afraid of long nights and dreams, what if someone is also optimistic about the house and wants to buy it?
Buy it quickly, he will move his household registration when he goes back, and move quickly while the river is still frozen.
Otherwise, after a while, the river will start to thaw, and people will not dare to leave on the river, which will delay things too much.
"Hey, hey, okay, then I'll find someone to go."
When Qi Yunsheng heard this, he was overjoyed, and immediately rushed out to look for his neighbors.
But Zhou Zhanghe helped the people to the end, told Xu Shiyan, went directly to the commune to find Zhou Qingguo, and brought several cadres from the Second Brigade over.
In these days, homesteads are collectively owned, and they are not easily bought or sold. They must be approved by the brigade and the commune.
Zhou Changhe meant that he just took the opportunity of buying a house to introduce Xu Shiyan to the people in the brigade, and it would be easy to change his household registration in the future.
The four neighbors live very close, and they will come soon.
It is said that it is the neighbors, but in fact it is the neighbors on the left and right, and there are two families across the road.
The Qi family has been clamoring to sell the house for a while, everyone knows about it, so just now when Qi Yunsheng went to find them, these families didn't hesitate, and came directly to be a witness.
Besides, you have to get to know your neighbors in the future.
It is said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and sometimes neighbors get along better than relatives.
Living at home, I’m actually afraid of having a domineering and unreasonable neighbor in the stall. Living next to each other, such a neighbor is really not disturbing enough.
Xu Shiyan has an honest and honest look on his face, the kind that doesn't bother anyone who sees him.
So when everyone saw it, they all felt that this person seemed easy to get along with. First of all, the first impression was very good.
Everyone sat and chatted together, and they had to inquire about Xu Shiyan's family affairs. Xu Shiyan had nothing to hide, and simply talked about his own situation.
After talking for a while, Zhou Chang and his father and son accompanied several cadres of the brigade to arrive, and also invited a primary school teacher over.
Zhou Qingguo had already mentioned to the secretary and captain of the Second Brigade that a relative was moving here.
With this foreshadowing, those in the brigade were very polite to Xu Shiyan, and immediately agreed to Xu Shiyan's purchase of a house and the transfer of his household registration to the Second Brigade of Donggang Commune.
With these guarantors and neighbors as witnesses, the house sale will be recognized.
At that moment, Qi Yunsheng found paper and a brush, and asked the elementary school teacher to write the contract for the sale of the house.
Then both the buyer and the seller, the guarantor, and the witnesses all sign and press their fingerprints.
Generally speaking, when buying a house, you pay a part of the deposit first, and wait for the other party to hand over the house before giving the rest.
Xu Shiyan knew that Qi Yunsheng was in a hurry, and besides, he was far away, so he simply gave Qi Yunsheng the four hundred yuan.
"Brother Qi, although this is the first time we've met, I've seen your temper, so don't bother.
In this way, when you clean up the house here, give the key to my second brother.
I don’t know how long it will take when I go back to change my household registration, so don’t delay your return to the provincial capital. "
"Second brother, don't bother the second master, I will entrust this matter to you, brother, and keep the key for me when the time comes."
Anyway, Zhou Changhe has been troubled so much, and this matter is not bad, so I just entrust it all to Zhou Zhanghe.
Zhou Changhe didn't refuse, and directly agreed.
At this point, the Qi family's house will belong to Xu Shiyan, just wait for Xu Shiyan to move his household registration and move here with his wife.
The house was successfully bought, Xu Shiyan couldn't help but thank these people who came today.
"Thank you secretary and captain, and neighbors, I have nothing prepared today.
In this way, when I move over, I will definitely set up a banquet to invite everyone to drink. "
"Do you still need to wait for you to move in? Come on, come to my house to drink today."
Zhou Zhang and the other end laughed, and said immediately.
"This is my aunt's younger brother, just like my own younger brother, everyone, let's go to my place for a drink."
Zhou Changhe had made up his mind a long time ago, and today he must support Xu Shiyan.
These are all members of the Second Brigade. Having a meal together will always be a matter of personal preference in the future, and Xu Shiyan will be easy to get along with when he moves here.
"Look, I was supposed to ask for this, why did Uncle Zhou spend money on it?"
At this end, Qi Yunsheng looked embarrassed, and also expressed that he would treat him to dinner.
In the end, Zhou Changhe won, so the group went to Zhou Changhe's house.
It happened that Mrs. Li was cooking at home. Seeing so many people coming, she hurriedly thought about a few more dishes, and even instructed the second boy to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy more bottles of wine.
Mrs. Li works quickly, and it didn't take long to make six dishes and one soup.
"It's too hasty, a few dishes to deal with casually, the secretary, the team leader, Mr. Chen, everyone will eat as they please.
The food is not good, but the wine is not enough. " Mrs. Li said very politely while serving the dishes.
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean, six dishes and one soup will still be eaten?
When our county cadres come to the countryside, it would be nice to have four dishes and one soup. Our specifications are higher than theirs, so what else do you want? "Secretary of the Second Brigade Yu Shou Guangdang even laughed.
"Hey, there is another big fish here. What kind of fish is this? It doesn't look like a carp."
Not everyone is familiar with fine scales, and the appearance of the fish is destroyed after stewing, so it’s normal to not be able to see it.
"Oh, those are the thin scales my brother brought this morning.
Secretary, don't underestimate my brother, he can fish and hunt.
Last year, I was a member of the Dongjiangyan brigade, and I got a lot of wild boars and black blinds all winter. "
