After the Republic of China

Chapter 972 Buying a House
The white terror cast a dark cloud over Shanghai.

Xiaodong's divergent thinking made the atmosphere even more stern, making people feel cold even in the hottest summer.

Shao Yunshi subconsciously rubbed her arms and said unhappily, "What do you mean you are too high-ranking? Do you know how to speak?"

As she said this, she became more and more frightened, fearing that Xiaodong's prediction would come true.

Xiao Dong was dumbfounded and asked, "Senior Sister, is this the time to worry about this?"

Shao Yunshi was also confused by anxiety, and sighed, "Alright, stop joking. I do suspect that this traitor is of high status, and we have to find out. At the very least, we should protect as many people as possible in the future."

How to protect it? They are not in the same system. Xiaodong did not dare to say this.

As he was speaking, Luo Cheng arrived.

When she saw him, Shao Yunshi asked hurriedly, "Any news from Qingdao?"

Luo Cheng nodded, "Well, the departure date has been confirmed."

Shao Yunshi sighed, "That's good, don't change your mind at the last minute again."

Xiao Dong smiled and said, "Senior Sister ordered a lot of fashionable clothes for them. If they don't come, they will lose a lot."

When Luo Cheng heard this, he asked happily, "Are there any for us?"

Xiaodong curled his lips, "You still don't have enough clothes. If you want to wear them, go find your wife."

Luo Cheng is not as thick-skinned as Xiaodong. Seeing that they are about to get married, he becomes more and more embarrassed, "Girl, why are you so naughty now?"

Xiaodong stuck out her tongue at Luo Cheng provocatively.

Shao Yunshi ignored the two and looked at Luo Cheng and asked, "What's the situation outside?"

Luo Cheng knew more than Xiaodong. After hearing this, his face darkened. "Uncle Ling told us to go out less. It's not good outside."

Shao Yunshi frowned, "Can Uncle Ling tell me what the situation is?"

"Well, it seems that the secret police have arrested an important figure from the Chinese Communist Party." Luo Cheng was so angry that he almost choked when he said this.

"What?!" Xiaodong exclaimed.

Luo Cheng's message made the hot atmosphere in the room even more violent.

Xiaodong was so anxious that he fanned himself thinking about how many old people were caught.

Shao Yunshi looked at the two anxious people in silence, sighed deeply, and said affirmatively: "That's right, otherwise, so many people would not be arrested."

"What a pity! I think those people are educated people." Luo Cheng said.

Xiaodong nodded, "The most pitiful ones are the children."

She always hated the traitor in her heart. You said that you have a high status and know a lot, so why don't you give out fewer people?

Unfortunately, no one paid attention to her thoughts.

Luo Cheng simply left her behind, looked at the young lady, and said, "It would be great if we could rescue those children."

What Luo Cheng said was also Xiaodong's idea.

Bu Er just walked in and started eating. "Don't give me any stupid advice. The situation outside is so tense that we can't even wait to hide. How dare you come forward?"

After being scolded by their uncle, Luo Cheng and Xiao Dong dared not speak a word.

When Shao Yunshi saw him, she hurriedly asked, "But what's the matter?"

Bu Er nodded, "The family that Uncle Ge mentioned is indeed selling their house. I've been to see it. The house is not bad and well maintained, but the price is a bit high."

Xiaodong runs outside every day and knows the situation.

She immediately jumped up and down, "Why is it still high? I see everyone outside saying that the housing prices have dropped sharply."

Due to the outflow of silver, the real estate market in Shanghai was on the verge of bankruptcy, and even many money houses and commercial banks involved were about to close down.

Bu Er also knew the situation. He glanced at Xiaodong who was jumping up and down and explained, "When I said the price was high, I was referring to the current sharp drop in prices, not the previous housing prices." Xiaodong was deflated when he saw the glance.

Luo Cheng also glared at Xiao Dong and said, "Mr. Ge is very capable. The people he introduced must be good. The high price is justified."

The doorman, Uncle Ge, was left behind by the old owner. He was a cautious person, and during the time he stayed at the Shao family's, he was sharp-eyed and resourceful, and he helped a lot to the Shao family members who had just arrived in Shanghai.

Moreover, he is tight-lipped and speaks little, and is very reliable.

Everyone highly respects him.

Xiaodong knew he was being impatient, but he still said stubbornly, "I heard from the people in the tailor shop that many people want to sell their houses and return home."

Ever since the real estate industry collapsed, Shanghai's economy has been in a severe depression and society has been even more turbulent.

This is directly reflected in the fact that the business of Qiaozhitou Flower House has become more difficult.

Shao Yunshi naturally knew about these situations because she read the newspaper every day.

However, she believed Uncle Bu and nodded directly, "The price is easy to negotiate, but the title deed cannot be wrong."

As she spoke, she was stunned for a moment, and then added: "Is there anything wrong with the other party?"

Bu Er smiled and said, "No problem. This house was bought by an old professor for his son. Now, the son is going abroad, so he wants to sell the house to raise money for his study abroad."

"House prices have plummeted now, and the longer you keep it, the less valuable it will be. He is really smart." Xiaodong curled his lips.

At this point, Shao Yunshi frowned and asked, "Did he sell it secretly, or through his family?"

"I've asked around, and everyone in the family knows that the reason they sold the house to raise money is because the family has split up, and the old man can't afford to give money to his son anymore." Bu Erdao.

"Uncle, you know so much." Xiaodong said in surprise.

Bu Er smiled and said, "It's not me who knows the details, it's Uncle Ge who knows the details and has inquired thoroughly."

Shao Yunshi breathed a sigh of relief, "When will the ownership be transferred?"

"Miss, don't you want to go and take a look?" Bu Er asked in surprise.

Xiaodong's eyes lit up, "Sister, let's go take a look? Even if we buy a house, we still have to buy furniture and so on. Let's go and take a look to see what's missing."

Shao Yunshi thought about it and agreed. Although it was a bit hot outside, fortunately they were all in the concession and were safe.

Seeing Shao Yunshi nod, Xiaodong immediately said, "Brother Cheng, go and start the car."

Bu Er hurriedly said, "Don't go now. They are packing up their things. It's a mess."

"Ah, his family wants to sell the house, and they haven't even cleaned it up yet." Xiaodong was furious.

Bu Er glared at her and said, "I decided to go abroad on a whim. That's not right. It seems that I have to receive a letter of notification before I can confirm my study abroad."

Shao Yunshi waved her hand, "Okay, it doesn't matter if we wait a day or two. Mom and the others are here too, so when the time comes, let them handle it themselves."

This house was bought for the Lu family, and there is no rush to live in it.

Xiaodong thought it was okay, "That's right, the style I arranged myself would be more satisfactory."

In this case, no one goes out.

It's hot in July and it's a torture to go out.

Shao Yunshi looked at Uncle Bu and said, "The world is in a bad state right now. What's the situation with the drug dealers?"

Just as he was talking, the phone rang.

Bu Er hurriedly took a few steps and answered the phone.

It was obvious that the person over there was someone he knew, and Bu Er was extremely respectful.

Shao Yunshi knew who it was as soon as she heard it, and quickly picked up the phone, "Aunt, how come you have time to call?"

Shao Lanxiang held her son in her arms, feeling a little uncomfortable talking, and said hurriedly: "I heard that there is a problem with the financial sector in Shanghai, and the market is in chaos. Are you okay?"
