Return to the small mountain village in 1986

Chapter 602: Get the real estate in the capital!

Gao Mingcheng had free time. After getting Wang Xun's permission, he started looking around in the warehouse. The warehouse only had a small window for ventilation. The lighting was not very good, but electric lights were installed inside. When the switch was pressed, the incandescent light was turned on. It gave off a bright light.

For Gao Mingcheng, this place is equivalent to a small treasure house. Walking around and admiring it is like hunting for treasure.

He casually looked through the things on the shelves. The things here were very miscellaneous, with almost everything.

If he can appreciate it slowly, Wang Xun won't have such free time.

He has been away from the capital for a month, and there are a lot of things here that he needs to deal with. In addition, his children and parents-in-law cannot be left alone.

So Wang Xun asked Gao Mingcheng to watch slowly and went to work himself.

After he left, Gao Mingcheng felt more at ease and could read a book for half a day.

Although he is not highly educated and cannot understand some purely intellectual things, he enjoys reading the notes written by unknown people.

Wang Xun's warehouse allowed Gao Mingcheng to stay here for two days. During this period, he actually found some valuable items and told Wang Xun about them.

Deng Wanwan was quite reluctant to let go of this, but she didn't force her to stay. She just said that Gao Mingcheng could come here to play if he was free in the future.

Gao Mingcheng did have to return here, so the clothes he changed after taking a bath were still hanging here to dry and were not packed away.

So Manager Wang accompanied Gao Mingcheng around the small western-style building and introduced Gao Mingcheng to the owner of the house.

One of the unsigned notebooks was most likely written by a well-known figure during the Republic of China. Gao Mingcheng could not completely confirm this, but after he proposed it, Wang Xun could confirm it through his own connections. If confirmed, then The value of this notebook, which I received at scrap price, is going to skyrocket!

After leaving Wang Xun's scrap station, Gao Mingcheng followed the address given by Fan Licheng and took several trains before arriving at the small bungalow in the afternoon.

It’s not easy to go out. Now that you’re in the capital, you naturally have to visit the places you should visit.

In addition, those who should take pictures must also take pictures. These photos will be rare memories and commemorations in the future.

The two old people have things to do here, and the children have naturally made arrangements. Wang Xun had already made an agreement with a nearby primary school before that his children would be transferred to study. For this, he also gave the school a sum of money. Borrowing fee.

But Gao Mingcheng didn't mind the remoteness of this place at all. He was particularly happy when he saw the vegetable fields cultivated by nearby people.

During the two days that Gao Mingcheng stayed here, Deng Wanwan's parents had adapted to life here. Deng's mother naturally took care of the laundry and cooking, and Deng Zhiyong could also stay at the scrap yard to work.

Sai Yanfei was very courageous in his work and had no shortage of money. After taking Fan Licheng to look at houses here, he not only bought three houses but also opened a trading company here.

Early that morning, after Gao Mingcheng had eaten and drank, he was ready to leave.

If Wang Xun was doing a high-end job, it would be difficult for Deng Zhiyong, who was born in the countryside, to adapt. However, Deng Zhiyong learned the job of collecting scraps for two days and was able to master it!

Others think that waste products are dirty, but Deng Zhiyong doesn’t! According to Wang Xun's request, he sorted the scraps he received one by one. When there were more scraps, Wang Xun would call a car to take away the scraps and sell them.

In addition, in scenic spots, there are people who specialize in taking photos. As long as you spend some money, you can have someone take a photo, but it will be more troublesome to take the photo.

Before Gao Mingcheng spoke, Wang Xun smiled first and said: "Mingcheng just went to do his own business first. When his business is done, he will go with me to Panjiayuan and the ghost market. Here we come to the capital, the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Summer Palace and other scenic spots, so you definitely have to go and see them!"

At this time, a manager of this trading company came over. As long as Gao Mingcheng is satisfied with the house and is willing to buy it, he only needs to give the money to the manager, and the manager will immediately help Gao Mingcheng get the real estate certificate.

"Mr. Gao, I brought the key. Let's go in and take a look now." The manager who called himself Wang said with a smile.

When he came to the capital this time, Gao Mingcheng didn't bring his own camera, because Wang Xun had a camera here. When the time came to go out for fun, he could just use Wang Xun's camera.

He didn't come here alone. He called in advance before coming here, so when he arrived at the small foreign building, there was already a middle-aged man waiting here.

Gao Mingcheng was not in a hurry to go into the house to take a look, but was going to take a look at the situation outside first.

Today's HD area is still in the countryside.

This small western-style building has a history of more than ten years, but it is well preserved. It is a Western-style building with only two and a half floors. The top half floor is an attic, which can be reached by stairs. You can store some in the attic. People can also live in the clutter, but the space is just smaller.

The owner of the house is a professor from a nearby university. He sold this small bungalow in order to study abroad.

Around the house, a small flowerbed has been opened, in which some common flowers are planted. However, it is winter now, and the leaves of the flowers have long fallen off, leaving only bare branches.

But if you look carefully, you will find that there are already small bulges on some branches. These bulges are the young leaves and flower buds that have just sprouted.

As long as the weather gets warmer, they will bloom with amazing vitality.

After looking around the house, Gao Mingcheng asked Manager Wang to open the door.

As soon as he entered, it was a spacious living room. When he saw most of the furniture inside, Gao Mingcheng was quite surprised. He looked at the rooms one by one, then went to the second floor and the attic.

The appearance of this house is okay, because it is a Western-style building, and it does not look outdated even now, but the furnishings inside are still somewhat outdated.

However, Gao Mingcheng is not in a hurry to renovate because he will not live here in a short time.

"Mr. Gao, you have seen the house, how do you feel about it?" Manager Wang asked with a smile.

Gao Mingcheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good. But Manager Wang, do you have the key to the building next door? I want to take a look there."

The building next door was bought by Sai Yanfei to Fan Licheng. If he and Fan Licheng lived here in the future, then they would be neighbors.

Of course, in addition to owning this small building, Fan Licheng also owns a courtyard!

Manager Wang smiled and said: "I brought the key. Mr. Gao, let's go over there and have a look!"

So Gao Mingcheng followed Manager Wang to visit the house belonging to Fan Licheng.

Compared with his, Fan Licheng's house was larger in area and the flower gardens were better kept. Other than that, there aren't many differences. They all need some changes and renovations before people can move in.

Gao Mingcheng asked: "Will you always keep the house here empty, or will you rent it out temporarily?"

Manager Wang said: "It has always been empty. The boss asked us to hire someone to clean it every six months." If no one lives in this house, it will be dirty, and the dust in the air will settle bit by bit.

Carry out sanitation once every six months. The frequency is not high, but it is enough. After all, no one lives there, so just keep it relatively clean and tidy.

Gao Mingcheng thought about it for a while, and then said: "Then my house is not going to be rented out, and it will be cleaned once every six months. I will trouble you to arrange someone to do it together, and I will pay you the cleaning fee separately."

Manager Wang knew that Mr. Gao had a close relationship with his boss, so he agreed immediately.

Anyway, we have to hire a cleaner to do the work, so it doesn’t hurt to do a little more on the way.

Gao Mingcheng was quite satisfied with the house, so he followed Manager Wang to pay the money and apply for the certificate.

Fortunately, Manager Wang drove a car, and it was an imported car. This made Gao Mingcheng take a second look. You know, cars are very expensive these days!

For the price of an imported car, you can buy a house in the capital!

When Manager Wang saw this, he explained that it was a company car and that he personally could not afford such an expensive car.

As a foreign trade company, it is natural to have a high-end car.

Manager Wang has connections here, so Gao Mingcheng doesn't need to do anything. After paying the money, he can just wait to apply for the certificate.

As for the money, there is no need to give it to Sai Yanfei's account, it can be given directly to the foreign trade company, which is a lot more convenient.

As soon as the real estate certificate belonging to Gao Mingcheng was processed, the clerk was getting ready to get off work. When Gao Mingcheng walked out of the door, he saw that it was getting dark outside.

After saying goodbye to Manager Wang, Gao Mingcheng stood on the street and looked around, planning to find a restaurant nearby to eat before returning to Xiaoyanglou.

Standing in front of the door of the small foreign-style building, Gao Mingcheng was quite excited. He slowly opened the door with the key he just got.

He had seen this house before, but seeing it again now felt completely different.

He, Gao Mingcheng, has a house in the capital!

Since the previous owner sold the house to study abroad and would most likely never come back, the large furniture that was difficult to move, as well as some bedding, were still here.

When Gao Mingcheng checked the room before, he found clean bedding and even some clothes from the original homeowner in the bedroom closet.

These bedding and clothes can actually be sold for money. Some people will dislike things used by others, but for those who don’t have much money, it is a good thing to buy suitable daily necessities at low prices. .

As for the bedding that has been used by others... Even if Gao Mingcheng went to stay in a hotel, then wouldn't the bedding in the hotel have been used by others?

In his previous life, Gao Mingcheng had hid in a narrow and dirty boat cabin and slept on the street in order to sneak into Hong Kong, so he didn't care much about it.

What’s even better is that Manager Wang and the others had already cleaned both houses before the year!

Before Gao Mingcheng spent the money to buy it, this house belonged to Fan Licheng, so Manager Wang would naturally have to hire someone to clean it.

That's why Gao Mingcheng decided to stay here for a few days.

Electricity and water are already connected here, and the toilets can be used without any problem. It is perfectly fine for people to live here.

Instead of spending money to stay in a hotel, why not live in your own house!

Next, he planned to clean up the remaining things in the house. He could keep the old quilt, but he wanted to buy a new quilt cover.

As for those old clothes, there is no need to keep them, but it is troublesome to sell them for money. It is better to pack them out and put them in a clean and spacious place to see if anyone needs them.

In addition to these things, there were some old books and abandoned manuscripts in the house. He picked through them and decided to keep some.

While I was cleaning up, the lights suddenly flickered. It turned out that the light bulb was about to break.

This house had not been lived in for almost a year, and it was normal for the light bulb to break. He simply stopped cleaning it and decided to buy a light bulb tomorrow.

In the next two days, Gao Mingcheng lived in this building and slowly explored the surrounding environment.

It's not far from famous universities, just ten minutes' walk. When it develops in the future, every inch of land here will become valuable!

After staying here for two days, Gao Mingcheng threw away all the unnecessary things, bought all the quilt covers and light bulbs he needed, then closed the door and prepared to leave.

Because Manager Wang is needed to help hire someone to clean, Manager Wang has a spare key there.

Later, when you think about what the house will be used for, you can get the keys back or change the locks.

Gao Mingcheng returned to Wang Xun's scrap station again. When he passed by, Wang Xun and Deng Wanwan were not at home, saying they had gone out to collect scraps.

As for the two children, they also go to new schools.

Deng Zhiyong and Deng's mother are both here. Deng's mother is responsible for washing and cooking, but she doesn't feel very tired. In her opinion, it doesn't matter if she doesn't need to work in the fields!

Besides, there are rice cookers, pressure cookers and washing machines here, so she won't be tired from working.

Therefore, when she is not cooking, she also helps sort out the waste at the waste station.

Seeing Gao Mingcheng coming, the two of them immediately warmly greeted him to come in and sit down. Mother Deng immediately poured him a cup of tea and said, "Mingcheng, the clothes you changed into before have been dried. I'll receive them for you." It’s in your room.”

"Auntie, thank you!" Gao Mingcheng said with a smile.

Then Deng Zhiyong and the others asked Gao Mingcheng how things were going.

When they learned that Gao Mingcheng had bought a small house in the capital, the two people immediately congratulated Gao Mingcheng. In their opinion, Gao Mingcheng was a capable person, and it was normal for him to be able to buy a house in the capital.

Of course, at this time, they are new here and don’t understand anything. When they understand more, they will know that Gao Mingcheng can get the real estate certificate in a short time. That is not an easy task!

Deng Zhiyong and his wife are old and have a strong local accent. They can't understand what others say except their own family, and others can't understand what they say. Therefore, they are somewhat lonely. The arrival of Gao Mingcheng naturally makes them feel extra special. welcome.

It was not until evening that Wang Xun and Deng Wanwan came back from outside.

Different from when they went home for the New Year, they were dressed simply and looked ordinary in the crowd.

This is normal. When you go back to your hometown to celebrate the New Year, even those who are not doing well outside have to dress brightly. Although Wang Xun and the others are living well, they are in the business of collecting scraps, so they are destined not to dress brightly at work. Brightened up.

After all, who would wear a smart dress and lambskin heels to collect scrap?
