Rebirth of the courtyard, the start is 80s

Chapter 32 Just chatting for a day, just buy a courtyard house
In fact, Cao Zhiqiang in his previous life once lived in the Wangfu Hotel and also saw Jinyu Alley.

But at that time, Jinyu Alley was quite spacious and tidy, and looked pretty good.

But at this time, Jinyu Hutong, how to put it, I don’t know if it’s like this in history or in this world. Anyway, the street surface is vaguely impressive, but the road surface is very poor. There are all kinds of dilapidated small shops and small shops on both sides booth.

Scissor sharpeners, haircutters, bicycle repairers, masons, carpenters, etc., you name it.

These privately built door houses and small stalls seriously occupy the area on both sides of the street, making the entire Jinyu Alley look very narrow, similar to a poorly managed pedestrian street night market.

Of course, to put it bluntly, this could be regarded as very smokey, but in reality, because the gates and booths are relatively low-grade, all kinds of dirty and messy, it is completely different from the Wangfujing Department Store.

I don't know, when I first came here, I thought it was a poor area.

But in fact, because there are many small handicraftsmen and small businesses everywhere, as the saying goes, the economic atmosphere is active, so the purchasing power of the residents here is very strong, much stronger than that in Nanluoguxiang at this time.

In the end, Cao Zhiqiang didn't go east much, and returned to Southwest Head, which is the intersection of Jinyu Hutong and Wangfujing Street. The south of the road is Dong'an Market.

To be more precise, his current location is probably where Yintai Department Store was at No. 88 Wangfujing in his previous life.

He found that it was still a residential area at this time, completely different from the later Yintai Shopping Center.

After walking for a long time, Cao Zhiqiang took a fancy to a house.

To be precise, it is a courtyard house.

This courtyard is a medium-sized courtyard, located at a corner.

Once the door is opened on the south side of the house, there is Jinyu Alley, and beyond the west wall is Wangfujing Street. The location is quite good.

The most wonderful thing is that this place itself is a restaurant for both commercial and residential use, and the signboard is called "Majia Restaurant."

It is said that this was originally a typical three-entry courtyard house, but later the homeowner opened up the inverted house along the street along the south side with the one-entry courtyard, and merged the two parts into a facade house, and turned it into a restaurant along the street with its doors open for business. , people still live in the back.

So, with such a change, once the entrance courtyard is gone, and one courtyard is missing, it becomes a quadrangle courtyard with two entrances.

But no matter what, the total area there is also a medium-sized courtyard house of 698 square meters to nearly [-] square meters.

The area of ​​698 square meters is not too small.

You must know that during this period, there has not been any evil shared area from the south. The so-called 698 square meters are all proper condominium areas.

Yes, this is only the area inside the house, and the three patios are not counted as the area!
If you count the three large courtyards, it will add at least 300 square meters, which is less than half an acre of land!
In other words, the entire courtyard, including the courtyard, would occupy an area of ​​over a thousand square meters!

Although there is nothing across the courtyard, and the area is smaller than the large courtyard where Cao Zhiqiang used to live, it is still very good.

It doesn't matter, the key is cheap!

There is a 698-square-meter courtyard along the street, and two courtyards of more than 300 square meters outside. The location is so good, and it only costs 3 yuan!
It costs less than 43 yuan per square meter?

Can you believe this price?

But let alone, if it was at this time, the house would indeed be at this price.

In fact, in this era where households with 50 yuan are big money, banks do not provide housing loans, the average monthly salary is only 3 yuan, and most people are allocated welfare housing, not everyone can take out [-] yuan at once.

The most important thing is that although commercial housing transactions have been liberalized at this time, allowing free buying and selling of real estate, it has not really risen.

That is to say, there are not many people who are really willing to buy a house at this time, especially a courtyard house.

Because even if you want to sell a house, not many people can afford to buy it.

And those who can come up with this money are either not interested in these houses, or they cannot get in.

It can be said that the real estate industry in Beijing at this time is a typical buyer's market. As long as someone is willing to buy, there are people rushing to sell houses everywhere.

Cao Zhiqiang thinks the house price is cheap mainly because he always compares it with later generations. In fact, this is the market price, and outsiders don't think it is cheap.

However, the flow of people here is indeed not small. Wangfujing Street is on the west, Jixiang Theater is on the north, and Dong'an Market is on the south. It is a good place to open a restaurant.

Well, in fact, at the beginning, they never thought about selling the house, and Cao Zhiqiang never thought about buying a house either.

In fact, when Cao Zhiqiang came this time, he was just tired at first, and wanted to rest here and have a meal by the way.

As a result, he started chatting with the restaurant owner because it was not time for dinner and seeing the business was deserted.

Talking and talking, I talked about the restaurant business, then the rent, the house price, and then the boss's personal aspirations.

It turned out that Boss Ma was an aspiring young man with great ideas. After the re-opening, he started the restaurant early in the morning.

As a result, after opening a restaurant, he found that it was tiring and hard work, not to mention that he didn’t earn much, it was hard money, so he had already done enough of this job, and he didn’t want to be a cook, so he wanted to go to the south for a while, and be a bad guy , make quick money.

Anyway, Cao Zhiqiang changed his mind after talking about it.

He thought this place was good, and decided to overturn the original plan, that is, the idea of ​​finding a house for a restaurant near where he lived, and open it here instead.

Because the location is better and the popularity is more prosperous here, with Jixiang Grand Theater to the north, Jinyu Hutong and Dongan Market to the south, Wangfujing Street to the west, and the intersection of Jinyu Hutong and Wangfujing Street...

This is simply a golden location, and the hotel business is first-rate.

It's strange that this owner Ma occupies such a good location, and the restaurant business is so deserted.

Moreover, he opened the door to Jinyu Alley, not Wangfujing Street to the west, and he was also drunk.

Of course, the reason why the door is opened in Jinyu Alley in the south is because of the emphasis on Feng Shui.

After all, for a formal courtyard house in Peking, the gate must of course open to the south or east, and the gate to the west... That is the gate of the dead!
Well, it doesn't matter, the most important thing is that the house price is cheap.

The house price here is not much different from that of the courtyard house where Cao Zhiqiang lived, but the popularity of the location is far worse.

Since it's a business, you can't just pay attention to being close to home, the key is to be popular and make money.

This place will be worth every inch of land in the future.

If it was the beginning of the 21st century, this house would not sell for three to five billion, and I would be ashamed to say hello to people.

Another point is that if the restaurant opened a little distance from his home, then it would be inconvenient for Qin Huairu and others to come and take advantage of it.

If it is open at the door of the house, you can go there by walking. With the character of Qin Huairu's family, it is estimated that it will take a whole day to eat and get food.

But if you drive here, not to mention the distance, and there are people you don't know everywhere, Qin Huairu's family has to restrain themselves.

And ah, I'll get the silly pillar first, and if Lou Xiao'e comes later, I will cooperate with Lou Xiao'e and let Lou Xiao'e come too.

At that time, Shazhu and Lou Xiaoe will spend the whole day together in my hotel, and I will play the side drum next to me.

Hehehe, huh huh, huh huh.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang felt happy in his heart, this is simply a house descended from heaven.

That's why Cao Zhiqiang wanted to buy this suite.

As a result, as soon as I talked to the owner about buying a house, the other party immediately agreed, and he couldn't wait for it.

This is simply dozing off and meeting the pillow, isn't it a coincidence?

Also, these days, the power of [-] cash is not ordinary, it is definitely stronger than the ancestral house of a dead thing.

The other party is very young, only 32 years old, just the age of restlessness, and he is tired of being the shopkeeper of the crooked restaurant. He wanted to go to the south for a long time, but he was always short of capital.

If he sold the house and exchanged it for 3 yuan, then he would have the capital to go to the south to be a bad guy.

Needless to say, Cao Zhiqiang thought he was the one taking advantage, but he was quite optimistic about the other party's mind and vision.

That's right, the house is dead, but the money is alive, even if the house is in a pretty good location.

But it will take many years to wait for the house to appreciate in price.

But at this time, if you are a loser and go to the south to dump things...

Not to mention anything else, just go to the south to buy some fashionable clothes and sell them back, and the profit will be three or four times as soon as they change hands.

If you are lucky, the other party will flip back and forth several times, and within a year or two, the [-] yuan can be doubled.

Isn't this better than guarding a small restaurant, burning smoke and fire all day long, and earning that little hard-earned money?
If Cao Zhiqiang didn't have this ambition, and had more ways to make a fortune, he would have wanted to do his best.

And his conditions are better, at least the portable space is unmatched by others.

But having said that, regardless of any period of time, it is risky to be a loser in business, and it is not 100% profitable.

The so-called doing business in the sea is more about the guy who was drowned in the sea.

Even Cao Zhiqiang, as a person who can predict the future trend, dare not say that being a loser in the country is guaranteed to make a profit at this time, let alone Ma Jingwen.

After all, the crime of speculation is still there, and there are bloody mouths everywhere in various departments.

In the previous life, the one who sought out the best, but what was the result?
And there are a few who can be taken among them, most of them were drowned in the process of going into the sea.

But this has nothing to do with him, Cao Zhiqiang.

Since Brother Ma is so ambitious, he must be supported and praised!

Otherwise, how can I pick up the leak?How could he sell such a nice house to me?
"This is five thousand! Look!"

It was unavoidable that the night would be long and dreamy, so Cao Zhiqiang directly took out the kraft paper bag full of 5000 yuan, which was not very warm.

When the other party opened the kraft paper bag in disbelief, looked at the stacks of brand-new banknotes inside, and then stopped breathing, Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile:
"Brother Ma, this money is just to let you know that I have the ability to buy a house, and I'm not fooling you or teasing you.

If you agree, I will come here tomorrow with all the money and formally sign a contract with you to transfer ownership. What do you think? "

"You, are you really buying a house?"

That brother Ma was also shocked. He really didn't expect that he would buy his own house and spend such a large sum of money just for a few casual chats.

Even if it was just for him to see, not for him now, it would be shocking.

This is 5000 yuan. He has never seen so much money put together in his life.

"If you don't really buy it, why am I talking to you for a long time?" Cao Zhiqiang laughed.

"Okay, bright!" Brother Ma gave Cao Zhiqiang a thumbs up, "It's a character, I, Ma Jingwen, have made you my friend!"

Cao Zhiqiang nodded with a smile and said, "Brother Ma, I bought your house for 3 yuan with a full set of furniture. Don't you regret it? There won't be any more problems, right?"

"Of course I don't regret it!" Ma Jingwen said with a smile, "I am the head of the family, and the house is mine. Of course I have the final say!"

"That's good!" Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "Then the 5000 yuan... I'll take it back first."

Under Ma Jingwen's eager gaze, Cao Zhiqiang took back the 5000 yuan.

There is no way, the trust between people is lacking a little these days, so we have to guard against it.

After putting away the money, Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile: "Well, let's meet at the gate of the Municipal Housing Management Bureau at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.

At that time, you take your house deed and household registration book, and I bring mine and 3 yuan. Let's pay the money with one hand and the house with one hand, how about it? "

"Then I'll wait for you!" Ma Jingwen tilted his head and cupped his hands happily, "I'll be there at the gate of the Housing Management Bureau tomorrow!"

"Agreed?"

"A word is settled!"

"See you or not?"

"See you soon!"
