the longest dream

Chapter 39 Buying a House
The whole family heard that the house was indeed such a good house, so they hurriedly ate breakfast. After Sun Fusheng started the tractor with the crank handle, a dozen or so members of the family went happily together in the biting cold wind. Depart from the county seat.

Eqi County, a county below Beita City, has a population of [-] to [-].

Western Xinjiang is not what people in the mainland think. It is full of Gobi Desert, but there are still many basin oases, and the soil is very fertile.

There are coal mines, pastures and large tracts of land in Eqi County.

It is a pity that in recent years, coal is not worth much, cattle and sheep are not worth much, and food is even less valuable.

But these are the affairs of the common people, and the officials will definitely benefit from these resources.

When Zhang Qing and a large family rushed to the family courtyard of the Grain Bureau, the movement really aroused the attention of many people.

He was even more surprised when he heard from Sun Yuantang that they were going to buy the house of the former deputy director.

Because they really can't see that these peasants who are full of mud and scum can come up with so much money.

"Are you really buying it? If you don't buy it, Zhang Liang has a bad temper. He's a badass, and you will suffer if you make trouble. There are old and young in the family, so don't miss it."

A man in the family courtyard seemed to be looking for the root cause, examining and asking.

"Buy, really buy, the house is suitable, buy it today."

Sun Mantang said with a smile.

The man was still skeptical, but he didn't say anything contemptuous. After saying "wait a while", he turned around and entered the building. After about ten minutes, he led a young man in a leather jacket down. He seemed to have just gotten out of bed. Get up, hair like a bird's nest.

"You want to buy a house?"

When the young man saw this group of rustic and restless farmers, his disappointment and annoyance could not be concealed in his tone.

What the hell, it's time to buy a shack!
Zhang Qing took a step forward, nodded and said, "Yes, the sooner you want an existing house, the better."

Ok?
Zhang Qing didn't show it when he was standing behind, but when he stepped out and opened his mouth, his demeanor was different.

First of all, he speaks Mandarin, standard Mandarin.

Zhang Liang sized him up suspiciously, and asked, "Which one are you? Can you make the decision?"

Zhang Qing nodded and said: "I can make the decision. As long as the house is good and the documents are complete, I can transfer the account today."

Looking at Zhang Qing's indifferent expression, Zhang Liang finally believed it, and his mood improved a lot. He said happily: "That's nothing to say, it's good to be able to make decisions. The house must be a good house. If you don't have to follow along, this house will do everything you want." I’m reluctant to sell it, and it took a lot of thought to buy it. It’s not that I’m telling you, the whole Beita City of Eqi County, look for it, it’s not much better than my house!”

Zhang Qing smiled and said, "Go ahead and have a look."

Zhang Liang looked at Zhang Qing, blinked and said, "Little brother came back from another place, right?"

Zhang Qing nodded and said, "If the house is suitable, can I go through the formalities today?"

Zhang Liang patted his chest and assured: "Absolutely no problem. Zhou Qiang from the Housing Management Bureau is my best buddy. It's a matter of minutes. Let's go and see the house!"

As he spoke, he paused again, and greeted Zhang Qing: "Brother, why don't you go in and take a look? There are too many people, and they don't buy after walking around. The ground is dirty, and I have to drag it myself..."

Zhang Qing shook his head and said, "I just bought it for the elders to live in. How do they know if it's good or not? Actually, you don't need to worry about it. As long as the house is not dilapidated and there are no problems with the procedures, the house can be handed over today. We bought it with sincerity. Brother Zhang, you seem to be a decent person, and you won't be fussy."

Zhang Liang couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard this, and said: "In our county, there are not many people who can talk like you. Okay, young man, brother will give you this face, let's go! The third floor is a big house, and the second floor has two sets." Smaller ones are the best floors."

He led more than a dozen people, men, women and children, upstairs, and downstairs, a lot of onlookers muttered things like "you can't look like you" and "farmers are so rich"...

"Look, is it a good house!"

Advance to the second floor, after opening two doors, you can see the white floor tiles inside, the walls are covered with wallpaper, and the corners are mostly wrapped with golden yellow wood. There are all kinds of home appliances, leather sofas, and glass coffee tables, all of which are in this era. Decor that can only be seen on TV.

Zhang Liang said without concealing his complacency, especially when he saw that the Sun family members were all stunned and eager: "It's not me bragging, even if it's a big city in the inland, that's it."

Sun Haixia knew that Zhang Lan had seen the world, so she asked her now: "Lan Lan, you just came back from Jiangjing City, is this how people pretend at home?"

Zhang Lan heard the words, looked at the interior decoration, shook her head and said: "No, there are calligraphy and paintings on the walls of the people's house over there, and there are some photos. There are many flowers in sister Qi's house, and they bloom in winter because of the air conditioner... that is. The kind of thing that can be heated by plugging in the electricity. There is also a piano..."

Ok?
Zhang Liang's complexion changed, he didn't expect to have seen the world.

He has only heard of air-conditioned pianos but never seen them.

Hairong Sun, who was younger, asked curiously: "Sister Lanlan, is this the same house on the plane?"

This suite is already the best house for rural girls.

Zhang Lan still shook her head and said, "There are carpets on the plane."

Zhang Liang's nest-like hair seemed to be falling out slowly. Although he had a brother-in-law of the Deputy Director of the Grain Bureau, he hadn't been on a plane yet.

In this era, [-]% of the people in the mainland have never taken a plane.

Is this a local dog in the village, or is it really a dragon crossing the river?
Zhang Liang became more and more curious about the ways of these people, but he had no bad intentions, it was just a pain in the ass.

Zhang Qing asked Sun Qingshi and Sun Mantang: "Grandpa, Uncle, how do you see this place?"

Sun Qingshi said "Oh" and said: "Is that bad? The room is warm and bright."

Sun Mantang also nodded and said, "Very good."

Zhang Qing looked at Zhang Liang and said with a smile, "Look at the other place too?"

Zhang Liang smiled and said, "Middle! In fact, that side is almost exactly the same as this side. It was all done by me on errands. It doesn't matter if you look at it or not."

After saying that, he still opened the door on the opposite side. Everyone looked at the door and found that the layout and furnishings were the same.

Zhang Qing said to Sun Yuehe: "Mom, you and grandma and eldest sister-in-law go inside to have a look, look at the bedroom, kitchen and bathroom, and see how many things you will have to move in if you move in."

Hearing what he said, Zhang Liang laughed, and said: "Yes, yes, yes, look after it, you can move in with some bedding, it's very convenient."

Sun Yuehe, Li Yun, Liu Xiu'e and the others didn't dare to enter at all, for fear of stepping on other people's tiles, but Sun Yuehe had seen the world after all, so he was bolder, and said to Zhao Juxiang, Li Yun, etc.: "Go in and see what you are afraid of. , It’s really dirty, let’s drag it for him! If you like it, buy it.”

A group of women had the guts to look at each room with excitement and anticipation, and they couldn't hide the liking on their faces.

After they looked at it reluctantly, Zhang Qing asked again: "Is the apartment on the third floor decorated like this?"

Zhang Liang smiled a bit mysteriously, and said: "How can that be? Little brother, you have taken advantage of it, the house above is really a good house, let's go, let's open your eyes."

After all, he led a dozen or so people upstairs, and the sound of the stairs echoed in the unit building.

After Zhang Liang opened the door, Zhang Qing and others understood why they said that, because the floor on the third floor was not tiles at all, but wooden floors.

All kinds of furniture are also obviously high-end, some of which are obviously imported.

The Grain Bureau in this era is still the fat difference in the fat difference.

And the deputy director, tsk, is a good position that can only be imagined but can't be described in words.

Zhang Qing looked at the triumphant Zhang Liang, and asked, "This house has all the procedures, can it really be traded?"

Zhang Liang understood it, and immediately said unhappy: "My brother-in-law is going to be promoted, but he didn't go in, why can't he make a deal?"

Hearing this, Zhang Qing felt relieved. Since it was a promotion, there would be no major problems for at least three to five years. Now it is not the next ten years in the dream world, where officials will be dismissed at any time.

After three or five years, the family should be in a different situation, whether or not they live in it is two things.

Seeing Zhang Qing nodding, Zhang Liang raised his eyebrows and reminded, "Have you met?"

Zhang Qing smiled and said: "The house is good, can I ask why the house is in good condition and you haven't sold it?"

Zhang Liang said "Hey" and said, "I don't want to sell it alone. Who can afford so much money at once to buy three sets at once? I find it troublesome to sell it alone. Only those who do business have this spare money, but Those grandchildren would rather buy a new house than understand the benefits of our house. People in small places just have no eyesight and are stupid." He praised Zhang Qing and said: "The little brother looks different, ask questions It’s all about ideas, unlike some people who come to see a house and ask how much cheaper it can be, I’m so cheap, he’s so stupid! It’s not about selling the house in a hurry, it’s already a cheap sale, how much cheaper can it be?”

Looking at the decoration and furnishings of the house, Zhang Qing nodded and said, "The price is right, there is no need to lower it."

In a county where the monthly salary is only [-] yuan, thinking about spending [-] to [-] yuan to buy a house is tantamount to nonsense.

And those who do business are naturally unwilling to buy second-hand houses.

But in all fairness, the price of these three suites is really not high.

Zhang Liang was overjoyed, looked at Zhang Qing and said, "What a good guy! It's refreshing enough! The three suites total [-] yuan, you are so straightforward, you can take [-] yuan, and I will treat it as a friend of yours. If you think it's okay, we can do it now Transfer. Don't run away with your big family, go buy some pots and pans, and start the fire here at noon, happy!"

The family originally complained that Zhang Qing would not even pay back the price, but they didn't expect that he would save [-] at once, and when they heard that this building, which was the same as the house on TV, would be able to move in immediately, they exploded with excitement. Everyone looked at Zhang Qing.

Zhang Qing nodded and smiled and said, "Okay, let's go to transfer the account now." After speaking, he turned to Sun Yuehe and said, "Mom, give me the ID card and household registration booklet."

Sun Yuehe's face was full of excitement, and she responded quickly, and hurriedly took out her ID card and household registration booklet from the cloth pocket she was carrying, and handed them to Zhang Qing.

Zhang Qing said to Sun Qingshi, Zhao Juxiang and others: "Grandpa, grandma, you go into the house and rest for a while. The eldest concubine, the second concubine, my mother, and the eldest sister-in-law are going to buy pots and pans, meat and vegetables, and start the fire here at noon. !"

The two old men, Sun Qingshi and Zhao Juxiang, trembling their lips, were still a little dazed, they just nodded and said: "Okay, okay, okay!"
