Lin Fan got off work early that day because Mengzi came to see him today. He inquired about a single-family courtyard house that was for sale. This was the news he heard from the pigeon market.
Because the news has become more and more serious recently, many people are thinking of leaving the country. Mengzi accidentally heard other people mention this yard when they were chatting.
It's just that the price was a bit high, and everyone who knew the news gave up. After all, it's not worthwhile to buy such a yard at such a high price.
Although some people have made a lot of money through the pigeon market, they are all scammers, and the costs and risks are very high. How can they come up with 30,000 yuan?
There is also the risk. You won’t be able to move in for a while after buying it. After handing over so much money, if someone finds out, then...
Even if someone could afford it, first of all, they don't lack a place to live, so why would they buy such a yard?
Secondly, the house is not allowed to be bought and sold now, and even if it is allowed in the future, there are not many opportunities to buy and sell this kind of yard.
But Lin Fan came up with this idea after hearing it.
It's a detached house. Isn't this the best opportunity to move out in ten years?
When the house can be sold by then, wouldn’t it be money earned in vain?
It's a detached house. Isn't this free money? There are no other residents to cause trouble.
As soon as Lin Fan arrived in front of a courtyard house, he heard the sound of an argument coming from the courtyard.
Since the courtyard door was not completely closed and was in a half-closed and half-open state, Lin Fan could also see the people inside.
I saw an old man in his fifties or sixties arguing with a gentle young man, who looked to be around twenty-four or five years old.
Since Lin Fan was far away from each other, he could only hear the sounds of the argument, but could not clearly hear the specific words of their argument.
So Lin Fan got closer and finally heard the voices of people inside.
The old man: "I don't want to live abroad and deal with people with big noses, green eyes, and birdsong all day long. This is the place where I was born and raised."
Young man: "We are all abroad. Grandpa, how can we rest assured that you are alone in China?"
Lin Fan understood that the children and grandchildren of this family had already settled abroad, and there was only one old man in the family.
But now that the old man is old and needs someone to take care of him, his children and grandchildren are worried and want to take him over too.
Originally, this was a good thing and filial piety for children and grandchildren, but the old man was unwilling to leave his homeland, so there was a dispute over different ideas.
Lin Fan was overjoyed after knowing this. Opportunity, this is a great opportunity.
If he could get this courtyard, he would make a lot of money in the future. Lin Fan would be so happy as if this courtyard was already his.
However, Lin Fan was also worried about how he was going to get in and what he was going to do there. He had to have a good excuse.
If he directly said that he wanted to buy their yard, wouldn't he be a fool?
I'm afraid that he will be kicked out by the old man, he is getting upset! Isn't this a matter of not opening the pot and picking it up? It's Lin Fan himself who is looking for a drink.
However, Lin Fan was also hesitant and worried. Because the news was so tight now, would he be able to complete the deal for the yard with this family?
However, since it happened by chance, Lin Fan would not give up easily. This was a once-in-a-lifetime, once-in-a-century opportunity.
And at this moment, Lin Fan also had a flash of inspiration, he had it!
If you say you can't buy it, then why don't you say you want to rent a house? Maybe there will be some success. Then we can think of some ways and this thing will probably work out.
Now that he had made his decision, Lin Fan no longer hesitated and went to the gate and knocked gently on the large wooden door.
"anyone there?"
An old man and a young man in the yard stopped arguing immediately when they heard someone calling the door.
"Grandpa! Let me go and see who he is first?"
As the young man spoke, he walked towards the entrance of the courtyard.
"Hello! What can I do for you?"
Lin Fan directly explained his intention.
"Hello! I want to rent a house near here. I just want to ask around to see if anyone rents a house."
Nowadays, it is not easy to buy or sell a house, but it is relatively easy to rent a house. There are also many families who have one or two houses left by their ancestors.
When the young man heard Lin Fan's words, he immediately had an idea.
"Can you rent an entire courtyard?"
"The whole courtyard is rented. Let's see if he can sell the courtyard privately." The young man thought to himself.
Lin Fan pretended to hesitate for a moment before saying: "But it's okay, but it's too expensive."
Young Man added: "As long as you think it's okay, we can discuss the price."
"However, you have to cooperate with me later. As long as you cooperate with me, this will definitely happen and you will be satisfied."
Lin Fan just nodded: "This is necessary."
The young man said again: "That's my grandpa inside. Just pay more attention. Come in and let's talk!"
Lin Fan also followed the young man to the old man's side, and said hello to the old man: "Hello!"
The old man asked somewhat displeasedly: "Who are you? What do you do?"
Before Lin Fan could answer, the young man smiled and said to his grandfather: "Grandpa! He wants to rent our yard."
The old man said angrily: "No rent! I'm not dead yet!"
Of course, Lin Fan couldn't interrupt because he knew that this young man would be his lobbyist.
Ever since!
The old man and the young man had another argument.
However, their grandfather and grandson quickly turned from arguing to bargaining.
Lin Fan also knew through mind reading that the old man loved his grandson the most.
He was the only one who listened to this young man's words. If his son had come, he would have sent him back abroad.
Of course, the old man actually wanted to live with his children and grandchildren, especially his grandson.
However, he really couldn't bear to part with his old home.
This old house is not only his ancestral property, but also his only concern.
In the end, grandpa finally agreed to his grandson.
However, his condition is not to rent, but to buy.
Because the old man also knew very well in his heart that once he left, he would rarely come back, and even if he could come back, he wouldn't be able to do much.
And his children and grandchildren are not short of this rent at all, so it is better to sell the yard altogether to avoid worrying about it anymore.
At this time, the old man is still not selling the yard for money, but for his determination and attitude.
So, the old man finally said to his grandson: "This yard is only for sale, not for rent. You can negotiate the price. I know you are not short of the money."
"But you have to make an agreement with the seller, and you have to meet one of my requirements, which is also my wish."
"That is, as long as I come back every time, the buyer must let me live alone in this hospital for a few days, and each time will not exceed half a month at most."
"If you can meet my request, I will go abroad with you tomorrow. If you can't do it, I won't leave."
At this time, the young man felt a little embarrassed, because although his grandfather's request was not high, it was also an ordinary buyer and would not agree to it.
When Lin Fan saw this, of course he knew that this was another good opportunity.
"I can agree to Grandpa's request, and I guarantee that I can do it."
"It's just that the price of this yard is not right, so I don't want it."
The young man was also overjoyed and said with a smile: "The price is easy to negotiate, we will never ask for more."
"It's just that we are in a special period now, so the way of trading has to be modified."
"I'll tell you first. If you agree with the trading method I mentioned, how about we discuss the price?"
Lin Fan said: "Just tell me!"
The young man really answered: "That is to leave it to grandpa as a bequest to you. Of course, I will sign and pledge it, go to the relevant departments, and stamp it with a notary seal."
"As for the subsequent troubles, there will be absolutely no problem. Besides, our family is not that shameless."
The old man also said: "This is okay, I agree."
Lin Fan also nodded and said: "Okay! I agree too! Let's negotiate the price!"
But the young man said: "You pay the price, as long as you comply with your promise when the time comes."
"This is because we are destined to each other. As long as my grandfather is happy, we will have intersections in the future."
