Chapter 248 Agree

Yunchuan City.

Jianhua convenience store.

Fang Jianhua was sitting behind the cashier, lost in thought.

A phone call from his hometown brought his thoughts back to that remote mountain village, and he couldn't help but think of his deceased mother.

It’s been almost six years, time flies so fast...

Chen Caiping came in with a lunch bag. Seeing her husband in a daze, she knocked on the cashier table in displeasure, "Why are you dazed in broad daylight? You don't take a good look at the store. You don't even know if someone has stolen your things."

"Nothing." Fang Jianhua smiled awkwardly, stood up and took the bag from his wife.

After settling in Yunchuan, they bought a storefront in front of the community and opened this convenience store. The business was not bad, earning three to four hundred thousand a year.

People who have been through hard times will know how to cherish it more. After getting rich overnight, although Fang Jianhua's mentality has changed, he did not squander money wantonly and still lived his life as he should;

The couple has no bad habits, neither gambling nor stock trading. Over the years, their life has been getting better and better, they have no worries about food and drink, and live a prosperous life.

The convenience store clerk asked for leave today, so Fang Jianhua had to visit the store himself.

Chen Caiping cooked a meal at home and delivered it to him.

Now that their two children are studying in college away from home, they are the only two at home. They have a simple meal for lunch, a stir-fried pork with green peppers and a cold cucumber.

Fang Jianhua was not picky and ate with gusto while holding his lunch box.

"Ding dong."

The cell phone on the table rang.

Fang Jianhua took a look and saw that it was a multimedia message from Lin Hongxi.

He put down his lunch box, picked up his mobile phone and opened the MMS message he sent, and one photo after another came into view.

A yard overgrown with weeds; rusty doors and windows; mottled walls.

Fang Jianhua recognized it as his hometown house at a glance. He didn't expect it to be in such a dilapidated state, and he was a little stunned for a moment.

Chen Caiping curiously looked over and took a look. It looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it before.

She wondered: "What are these?"

Fang Jianhua replied: "The house in our hometown."

Chen Caiping was silent.

At that time, Fang Jianhua insisted on spending hundreds of thousands to build a house in her hometown for her mother-in-law to take care of in her old age. She did not agree with it, but her husband was a filial son and was obedient to her mother-in-law. Moreover, her mother-in-law was really not used to living in the city. Wan kept humming, thinking about sending her back to her hometown so that he could have some peace and quiet. So she didn't stop him.

Unexpectedly, my mother-in-law passed away a few years after the house was built, and the house became vacant.

Hundreds of thousands of dollars were wasted in this way, and she felt uncomfortable every time she thought about it.

Chen Caiping snorted angrily, "Who sent it to you? Why did you send it? Is it going to hurt your heart?"

Fang Jianhua ignored his wife's weirdness and answered her in a low tone, "It was sent by the village chief. Someone in the village wants to buy that house. Today he took people to see it."

"and then?"

Fang Jianhua turned off the screen of his mobile phone, picked up his lunch box and continued eating, and casually replied: "They offered me 140,000 yuan, but I didn't agree."

Chen Caiping took a deep breath and almost died of anger. "Just for that shabby house, you still don't sell it for 140,000 yuan. Do you want to keep it as a family heirloom or something like that?"

Fang Jianhua explained in a good-tempered manner, "It's not that I don't want to sell it, it's that the price is not right. The house cost more than 300,000 yuan to build, and there is a large foundation... I really can't bear to sell it at a low price."

Chen Caiping frowned and asked, "How much do you want to sell it for?"

Fang Jianhua answered honestly: "Originally I wanted 200,000 yuan, but then I thought that it had been ten years since the house was built, and no one had taken care of it in the past few years. The situation would definitely not be as good as before, so it dropped by 20,000 yuan. "

"So you're just fighting for the 40,000 yuan?" Chen Caiping couldn't help rolling her eyes.

Fang Jianhua nodded, "If you don't want to sell it, don't sell it. Anyway, we don't need the 140,000 yuan. Let's keep the house there. Maybe we can go back to retire in the future."

Chen Caiping's eyes almost rolled out of her head. This guy was good at everything, but he was stubborn and stubborn.

She took a deep breath and tried to reason with him.

"Our parents are gone, and my brother came out with us. Where is anyone in my hometown now? There is no one to talk to when I go back. Besides, when the two children get married, I will have to help take care of them. How can I have time to return to the countryside for retirement?

The old house has been inhabited for a hundred years, but it has collapsed after five years of being unoccupied. Look at the house that has been left unoccupied for a few years and has become like this. The year has really collapsed.

Since someone wants to buy it now, just sell it to someone else. They are from the same village. Why are you arguing with others for these tens of thousands of dollars? We don’t lack these tens of thousands of dollars to live now, so we should just do good deeds and do good deeds. . "

Chen Caiping tried her best to persuade Fang Jianhua for a long time, but she didn't know what words convinced Fang Jianhua.

He sighed softly and whispered: "Okay."

Chen Caiping almost cried with joy.

Heavenly Bodhisattva, this time I was finally able to sell that miserable shabby house.

Having made the decision, Fang Jianhua stopped worrying about it.

He called Lin Hongxi and said that he agreed to sell the house for 140,000 yuan and would take time to go back and complete the procedures before the end of the month.

Lin Hongxi was overjoyed when she received the call. She didn't expect it to be so simple.

After hanging up the phone, he hurried to Shen's house and told Grandpa Shen the good news in person.

"Uncle Shen, have the money ready. Fang Jianhua said he would come back in a few days to complete the procedures."

This result was unexpected by Grandpa Shen.

He was ready to start a tug-of-war of bargaining with the other party. It would be best to negotiate for around 150,000 yuan. If the other party refused to give in, 180,000 yuan would not be unacceptable.

The old man looked confused and couldn't believe it, "Are you agreeing now?"

"Uncle Shen, this matter is not as easy as you think. I called Fang Jianhua several times this afternoon. I talked about it all, and then I finally agreed." Lin Hong did not forget to smile with joy on her face. Gold.

Grandpa Shen quickly handed over a cigarette and said with a smile: "Hongxi, I'm really troubling you this time. I'll ask your aunt to kill a chicken and fry some good vegetables. Let's have a good drink."

Lin Hongxi waved her hand, "Hey, no matter how troublesome it is, we all live in the same village, so we should help each other; I am still the village chief, and it is my duty to serve the villagers. If anything happens in the future, Uncle, just come to me."

After Lin Hongxi finished talking about her business, she stood up to leave, "Uncle, there is no need to kill the chicken. I am going to the town for a banquet tonight, and I will meet you for a drink another day."

It was not easy to force others when they had business to do, so Grandpa Shen had no choice but to say: "Okay, if you have something to do, I won't let you stay. When you are free, remember to come and have a drink with me."

Grandpa Shen politely sent the person to the door.

Before leaving, Lin Hongxi reminded him again, "Uncle, I remember that your old house got a real estate certificate a few years ago. According to regulations, one household can only have one homestead. Do you want to divide it between small flowers or small trees? With a separate account, Fang Jianhua’s house will be transferred directly to his name.”
