Back to 1980: Please Love Me Again

Chapter 78 Buying a Siheyuan
After dinner, Zhao Wenmu secretly gave Zhao Wenqiu 200 yuan.

"Xiaoqiu, I often write letters to my family, and tell me when I'm short of money."

He knew that his mother Liu Sufang finally returned some of Zhao Wenqiu's money. With the 200 yuan, Zhao Wenqiu can be considered a little rich woman.

After all, 200 yuan is a worker's salary for more than half a year.

He has visited the school cafeteria, and the words "high quality and low price" are very suitable.

The students come from all over the country, and many of them are from ordinary families. It is not bad to give their children 10 yuan a month for living expenses.

Zheng Xiaowen said that the family gave her only 8 yuan a month.

This is only willing to sell two sheep.

Zhao Wenmu suddenly remembered the joke about 30 sheep.

Zhao Jing also secretly gave Zhao Wenqiu 200 yuan. In fact, it is inappropriate to say secretly, because she does not have her own small coffers.

Zhao Wenmu earns 50 yuan a day.

As the proprietress, she does not have a private coffers.

So only family funds can be used.

In the end, I still have to tell Zhao Wenmu.

Zhao Jing thought about it, and suddenly felt that this arrangement was not very good.

"Little brother, you will be the boss in the future, and you will pay me my salary, okay?"

She pinched Zhao Wenmu's legs attentively and said with a smile.

"why?"

Zhao Wenmu enjoys the service of his wife.

"Salary is my own money, I can spend whatever I want!"

"All the money at home is yours, and you can spend it as you like!"

Zhao Wenmu said grandly.

"It's different. I always feel that I didn't earn the money at home, so I don't want to spend it."

Zhao Jing was a little embarrassed when she said this, she did not earn the family's money.

Zhao Wenmu thought about it, and Zhao Jing was really not willing to spend money.

She is a stingy little money fan.

Instead of this, it is better to pay her a salary.

Her wages are earned by herself, so maybe there is not so much psychological burden to spend.

"Okay, I will pay you wages in the future, and it will also be 50 a day!"

"Well! Thank you boss!"

Zhao Wenmu didn't expect that this method would have immediate results. Since Zhao Jing got her salary, she became more and more willing to spend money, but she always bought him various things.

Anyway, he's having fun with it.

Everyone bid farewell to Zhao Wenqiu that night, and Zhao Wenqiu will start school tomorrow.

Zhao Jing took Zhao Wenqiu's hand and told her for a long time, while Zhao Xin held her other hand reluctantly.

"Aqiu, I envy you so much!"

On the way back to the dormitory, Zheng Xiaowen couldn't help saying.

There is only one elder brother in her family, and her relationship with her elder brother and sister-in-law is average, and she has never experienced this feeling of brother and sister loving each other.

Early the next morning, Zhao Wenmu and his party went directly to Guangningbo Street and Wudinghou Hutong in the Second Ring Road.

That is, the financial street area of ​​later generations.

There are many courtyard houses here.

That's right, Zhao Wenmu came to look for the courtyard house.

There are many courtyard houses here, with different sizes and preservation conditions.

Zhao Wenmu couldn't bear to look at the dilapidated and messy condition of some courtyards.

They just strolled around like this for a while, and soon a short and thin young man walked over with a smile on his face.

"Comrade, are you planning to buy a yard?"

Zhao Wenmu knew in his heart that this was a broker or a broker.

That is, the real estate agent of later generations.

"Yes, are you familiar with this area?"

Zhao Wenmu sized him up for a while and asked casually.

"You're asking the right person, there's nothing in this area that I, Jin Xiaobao, don't know about!"

"Let me tell you, whoever wants to sell a house in this area, and whose Fengshui is good, I know everything about it! How about it, do you want me to show you?"

Jin Xiaobao's mouth is full of Beijing movies, and he speaks very fast, it can be seen that he can speak well.

"Yo, are you still a bannerman?"

Zhao Xin interrupted suddenly.

"Oh, you know this! Yes, my ancestors are from XHQ Wudaoying."

Jin Xiaobao went on to say:

"I'm sure I can save you a lot of money!"

"Okay, don't worry, your benefits are indispensable!"

Zhao Wenmu immediately decided to let him show the house.

With a local who is familiar with the situation with him, his group of people don't have to wander around like headless chickens.

This can indeed save a lot of time, but also can learn more information.

Have there been any accidents in the house before, what is the current situation of the residents, which units are around, etc. It is still too troublesome to investigate by yourself.

The emergence of real estate intermediaries naturally has its rationale.

Existence is reasonable!

After graduating from junior high school, Jin Xiaobao failed to work in a factory, so he did some work of distributing bills.

Over the past year, he found that more and more foreigners came to the capital.

So I looked for jobs in train stations, guest houses, restaurants and other places, helping foreigners lead the way, find accommodation, find places to eat, rent houses, take them on tours, and so on.

Take kickbacks on both sides.

In short, he never refuses anyone who comes, and he does all the work he can do.

The days are neither good nor bad.

Today, I just took a guest from the south to visit the alleys of the capital. He is an amateur tour guide.

As a result, the guest had something to do and left, so he just wandered here, and then met Zhao Wenmu and his party.

These people look like rich people.

This kid still has some eyes for people, not just clothes, after all, Zhao Wenmu and the others are not expensive.

He followed Zhao Wenmu and a group of people not far or near, and it could be seen that Zhao Wenmu really planned to buy a yard.

Buy a yard!

The smallest one is [-] square meters when entering the yard.

Large yards with four entrances and five entrances cover an area of ​​more than ten acres or even dozens of acres!

In what era, those who can afford a courtyard house are definitely the top rich.

Even if this group of people couldn't afford a yard, they would definitely need him in other ways.

Jin Xiaobao has this confidence.

He took Zhao Wenmu to look at seven or eight yards in a row.

It can be seen that he is indeed very familiar with these yards, and he can tell the situation of each yard in detail, and there is basically nothing that he does not know about the big and small things that have happened in the past few decades.

Zhao Wenmu didn't show any expression the whole time.

The others seemed to be Grandma Liu who had entered the Grand View Garden.

Without him, the contrast between these courtyards is too great.

Some enter the courtyard three or four times, with towering courtyard walls, exquisitely carved stone lions and stone drums at the door, and the vermilion gate is closed tightly, so the situation inside cannot be seen.

After Jin Xiaobao negotiated, everyone entered.

I saw hand-painted corridors, carved beams and painted buildings inside, quite a feeling of "a corridor with five steps, a pavilion with ten steps, the waist of the corridor is unadorned, and the eaves and teeth are pecking high".

There are also some ancient trees planted in the courtyard, which has a rather deep artistic conception in this summer.

It really feels like living in a palace.

In some yards, the walls are mottled and peeling off, and several or even a dozen families are crowded inside, with all kinds of debris piled up, making it very difficult to take a step.

The internal structure of the courtyard has undergone countless magical changes, and the original appearance of the courtyard has long been lost.

This kind of house is far inferior to the adobe house in my hometown.

Not only that, but there is no toilet in the yard, and every household has a toilet, and they rely on it to get up at night.

The toilet buckets were piled up in the yard, and a strange smell rushed straight into the nostrils.

If you want to go to the toilet, you have to go out and walk 200 meters.

If you're in a hurry, why don't you pull your crotch?
Zhao Xin pinched her nose, and Zhao Jing also frowned.

Even the little girl started crying.

Zhao Wenmu hurriedly took everyone away.

Jin Xiaobao was also a little embarrassed.

"Brother Zhao, that's the situation. If you are not satisfied, I can show you a few more."

Zhao Wenmu waved his hand, indicating that it was all right.

He found a small bean curd stall and asked everyone to rest for a while.

After watching it for so long, Zhao Wenmu knew it in his heart.

A simple conclusion.

can not afford!
Even the smallest and worst yard I saw just now cost 14000 yuan.

Once the others enter the yard, they cost at least 2 yuan.

Larger second-entry and third-entry yards cost as little as three to fifty thousand yuan, and expensive ones cost more than one hundred thousand yuan!

The money he brought was 20214 yuan, theoretically a small one could afford it once he entered the yard.

But he doesn't want to buy it.

Too old and ugly.

He didn't even want to buy it for 1 yuan.

He really wanted to buy the more than [-] Sanjin Yard, but it was a pity that he didn't have enough money.

Zhao Wenmu bought the courtyard house not just to hoard and make money.

Chinese people still have a simple idea when buying a house, that is, at least they must be able to live by themselves.

As soon as those shabby ones entered the courtyard, he would rather live in his old adobe house!

Forget it, buy it later.

Throughout the 80s, the price of courtyard houses could not rise too much.

By the end of the year, after selling the mushrooms, I will have a lot of money on hand.

Don't worry about this moment.

Seeing that Zhao Wenmu didn't plan to buy a courtyard house anymore, Jin Xiaobao, who had shown him for so long, didn't look angry at all, he rubbed his head and said:

"It's okay, Brother Zhao, you can come to me anytime you want to buy in the future, and I will definitely be able to negotiate a better price for you."

Zhao Wenmu was very satisfied with his attitude.

He was neither angry nor extorted money, just laying the groundwork for future cooperation. With this attitude, he is a person who can make things happen.

He took out 5 yuan and handed it to Jin Xiaobao.

"Xiao Jin, don't worry, I won't treat you badly!"

Jin Xiaobao refused to accept it.

"Brother Zhao, I can't charge you if I haven't done anything. I can't break the rules."

Zhao Wenmu didn't force it, anyway, he had other things that he needed to do.

"Xiao Jin, are you interested in joining me in Qilu Province?"

He asked with a smile, not expecting much of course.

Jin Xiaobao hesitated for a moment and sighed.

"Brother Zhao, I can see that you are a person who does great things, but I still have a younger sister to take care of, and I really can't get away from it. After a few years, the younger sister grows up, if you don't mind, I will join you you."

Jin Xiaobao lost his parents when he was young, and grew up relying on the support of his neighbors.

The younger sister is only 12 years old, so he can't get away naturally.

The kindness of the neighbors in the neighborhood has not been repaid.

He didn't mind at all, and briefly talked about the situation at home.

Zheng Guangming sighed a little, Jin Xiaobao was in the same situation as himself.

Even more miserable.

Zhao Wenmu didn't force it, but he had a higher opinion of Jin Xiaobao in his heart. People who care about their relatives and know how to be grateful, at least their morals will not be too bad.

People have no morals, and when looking for a partner, the bottom line is that the other party must have moral character.

"Xiao Jin, are you familiar with the area around the big gate (shi)?"

Zhao Wenmu asked.

Dashilan is near Qianmen Street, just a short distance from Tiananmen Square.

"Hey, Brother Zhao, you are very familiar with the capital city! Few people pronounce the name of that place correctly!"

"Familiar, I often go there!"

Jin Xiaobao patted his chest and said.

"Okay, then I'll ask you one more thing."
