This matter is a top priority. Only when the house is ready can the parents be settled. Xiao Zheng called Chen Hong: "At noon, can we sign the contract together?" Chen Hong happily said: "Yes, we can move around freely at noon.
"So, at 12 noon, Xiao Zheng and Chen Hong came to Jiangnan Mingyue Community next to the county government.
This community has been built for five or six years. Although it is not as modern as the upcoming off-plan "Hongda Garden", it can be regarded as a quality garden-style community. There are small bridges and flowing water, as well as hillside pavilions. The environment is
It's also quite good.
What's more, the landlord is said to be from the Propaganda Department of the county party committee and has been transferred to the municipal government. That is a promotion, so Chen Hong is quite satisfied.
The agent picked up Xiao Zheng and Chen Hong at the gate of the community and went to the house together. The landlord left the keys with the agent, and they went directly to the house to wait for the landlord. The decoration of the house did not look old, and the master bedroom and the children's room had been repainted.
The different colors are quite warm. This is also the first time for Xiao Zheng and Chen Hong to buy a house. They looked at each room carefully and were satisfied. They thought that they would live here in the future, and they felt that
I am looking forward to this day coming soon.
But half an hour passed after the time agreed with the landlord, and the landlord still hadn't arrived.
The agent contacted the landlord. The landlord said that something happened at the unit and they would have to arrive later and asked them to wait. The agent told Xiao Zheng and Chen Hong that they were really sincere about the house, so they
After waiting for a while, an hour passed and the landlord still hadn't come.
The agent continued to contact the landlord. The landlord said that he would definitely arrive and asked them to wait. Xiao Zheng became a little angry: "What's going on? It's been so long since the appointment time. Does the landlord want to sell?"
Ah?" Chen Hong also said: "That's right, I still have work in the afternoon. Didn't I say that I would handle payment and transfer of ownership at noon? It's almost time to go to work in the afternoon, and I didn't ask for leave from my employer!"
The agent persuaded her nicely: "You two, this is indeed the landlord's fault. He is sincere in selling, but he encountered some problems. I believe it will arrive soon. You two sit here, I will buy mineral water for you.
." Chen Hong said: "I don't want mineral water, buy me a glass of KFC orange juice." The intermediary's face twitched. A glass of KFC orange juice is much more expensive than mineral water, but in order to do this business, he still said: "Okay.
, No problem, I'll go right away." Chen Hong suddenly stopped him again: "Wait a minute, I haven't given you the money yet, I'll pay for it myself."
The agent immediately waved his hand and said: "That's not possible. I'm treating you today. I'm treating you. I kept you two waiting because I didn't make arrangements." After the agent finished speaking, he ran out. Chen Hong said: "This agent is not too stingy.
"
Xiao Zheng said: "Since the landlord said that he will definitely come, then we should ask for a leave from the work. We have waited until now, so let's buy the house today to save time in the future. If you want to delay, you will be delayed.
Let’s do it this afternoon.”
Chen Hong thought about it and felt that this was also the case, so he nodded and said: "That's fine. It is said that this landlord is in the municipal government, so he may really have trouble. It is possible for people like them who serve leaders to have trouble temporarily. Everyone knows
Call them 'city leaders.'" Chen Hong seemed to be envious of the people in the municipal government.
Xiao Zheng also knew Chen Hong's character and her family's impression of her, so he didn't take it to heart and said, "I also told the mayor that I won't go there in the afternoon." Chen Hong asked, "Are you talking to Song Shu now?
How is your relationship?" Xiao Zheng thought about the trap Song Guoming set for him at the banquet yesterday. His relationship with Song Guoming had deteriorated to a critical point. But about what happened last night, Xiao Zheng didn't want to tell Chen Hong, lest she
Worried, he said: "That's it."
Chen Hong advised: "Xiao Zheng, Secretary Song is the Party Secretary after all. If you can't offend him, don't offend him. If you can get closer to him, you can give it a try. After all, he is now the number one."
Zhengdao: "Getting closer? I'm afraid that if I get closer, he will kill me accidentally. I want you to believe Song Guoming's hypocrisy and insidiousness!"
Chen Hong was shocked when she heard that Xiao Zheng said so blatantly that Song Guoming was hypocritical and insidious. She hurriedly advised: "Xiao Zheng, just tell me, forget it. Never say that to others about Song Guoming."
Song Guoming may have to wear small shoes for you."
What's the point of wearing small shoes? He has already set a trap for himself! Xiao Zheng thought. But Xiao Zheng still didn't want to mention what happened last night to Chen Hong. He said: "Okay, I understand."
Chen Hong called the school and asked for the afternoon off.
In order to prevent the two people from talking and disturbing each other, Xiao Zheng went to the balcony and called the mayor Guan Wenwei. He told him about buying a house and that he might have to return to town later in the afternoon. Guan Wenwei asked him to take care of his house first.
This big thing is done.
After finishing the phone call with Guan Wenwei, Xiao Zheng suddenly remembered a person whom Xiao Zheng hadn't contacted for a long time. But today it involved buying a house, and the landlord hadn't arrived yet, so Xiao Zheng felt it was necessary to pay that person
He called someone. So he dialed that person's number and the call went through. He asked the other person to help him inquire.
At this time, the agent came back after buying drinks. He bought KFC orange juice for Chen Hong, KFC Coke for Xiao Zheng, and a portion of KFC chicken nuggets. He just bought a bottle of mineral water. Then, three
People drank drinks and ate while waiting for a while. Chen Hong asked the agent to eat chicken nuggets too.
But by four o'clock in the afternoon, the landlord still didn't come. The agent contacted him again, and the other party said that he was already in Anxian County and would be there soon. Chen Hong had been waiting all afternoon. Even if he ate the agent's KFC, his patience was almost exhausted.
It was all gone. Chen Hong said: "Forget it, let's go back."
At this time, Xiao Zheng's phone rang. It turned out that it was the person Xiao Zheng called before. Now he called back. Xiao Zheng answered the phone. After listening to the call, Xiao Zheng said to Chen Hong: "
Since we have waited until now, let’s wait a little longer.” The agent nearby also advised: “The landlord will be here soon, will be here soon.”
At about 4:30 in the afternoon, there was a click and the door of the house was pushed open.
A man came in from outside, wearing a white shirt, black trousers, shiny brown leather shoes, and holding a mobile phone in his hand. He was neither fat nor thin, but he looked quite handsome. Judging from his clothing, Xiao
Zheng seems a little more casual and rustic. It seems that the appearance and dress of people working in the city are quite different from those working in towns and villages.
This was Chen Hong's first impression. After the man came in, he looked at Chen Hong and Xiao Zheng, and then returned to Chen Hong. His eyes were obviously brighter. In the county, Chen Hong's beauty
The woman is still extremely rare. The man introduced himself: "Hello, you two, I am the landlord, my name is Wang Peng, and I am currently the deputy director of the General Office of the Municipal Government. I heard that both of you are in the system.
.”
He did not apologize for being late, but first identified himself. Xiao Zheng said: "Yes, I am from Tianhuang Town. This is my girlfriend. She is from No. 1 Middle School." Wang Peng said with a smile:
"Since everyone is part of the system, it's easy to talk. To put it bluntly, this house is very good. It is a new house and the community environment is also very good. You have all seen it, right? My quotation is 280,000, which is also the actual price.
It’s indispensable. What do you think?”
Chen Hong saw that Wang Peng was a talented person and was from a municipal department, so she had more trust in Wang Peng. But she still hoped to lower the price, so she said: "Director Wang, we are all within the system.
Man, do you think you can lower it a little? After all, we have waited for so long, and the price you listed at the time was 280,000, so there should be some room, right?"
Wang Peng looked directly into Chen Hong's eyes and said: "Mr. Chen, I'm really sorry. I am a very down-to-earth person, and the house is sold at the real price, so the price is what it is, so 280,000 is not a penny less. In fact,
There are still people who want to buy my house, but you have to look at it first. The agent also told me the situation and hopes that I can sell it to you, so I will also give you my intention, but the price is this price. If you think it is expensive, I will consider it.
Sell it to the next owner. Teacher Chen, you are so beautiful, there is no way I could lie to you."
After Chen Hong was praised by Wang Peng, "You are so beautiful," she actually showed a shy expression, and then turned to Xiao Zheng: "How about we buy a house?" Xiao Zheng had no expression on his face, but
He said to the landlord Wang Peng: "For 200,000 yuan, I will buy it. If it is any higher, I may not consider it."
Wang Peng almost shouted: "What? 200,000? Are you talking nonsense?" Chen Hong felt that Xiao Zheng's return of 280,000 to 200,000 was a bit too much. You must know that this house has 120 square meters. If it is 200,000, 2,000 per square meter
It's less than the average price, and it's impossible to buy it in a quality community like Jiangnan Mingyue. Chen Hong said in Xiao Zheng's ear: "I'm afraid you can't buy it for 200,000 yuan."
Xiao Zheng remained calm and said to Chen Hong: "It's true that you can't buy a house like this for 200,000 yuan in other places, but it's different here with Director Wang. Director Wang is generous and considers others.
, is a good man, he will sell it.”
Xiao Zheng looked at Wang Peng with a half-smile. Wang Peng stared at Xiao Zheng and said: "I think you are not sincere in buying it." Xiao Zheng said: "I want to buy it sincerely, otherwise I wouldn't have waited from noon to now.
Our time is precious, and my time is also valuable. If you came at noon, I would definitely buy this house for 280,000 yuan. But Director Wang delayed his arrival until now, so I can only buy it with 200,000 yuan.
Yes. It depends on Director Wang, whether he is willing to sell it?"
Wang Peng was already annoyed by Xiao Zheng: "What a whim. Let's go. I won't sell this house to you. I'll ask the next family to come over right away!"
Xiao Zheng glanced at Chen Hong: "Let's go."
Chen Hong said, "Xiao Zheng, let's not be too impulsive. Let's buy it for 280,000 yuan." Chen Hong actually didn't want Xiao Zheng to offend Wang Peng. After all, he was the director of the city, and he might become Xiao Zheng's son in the future.
As a leader, Chen Hong didn't want Xiao Zheng to offend someone because of this kind of thing, and he would be suppressed by others and unable to hold his head up in the future.
But Xiao Zheng didn't take it seriously at all. He said, "Listen to me." After saying that, Xiao Zheng walked out the door. When he got to the door, he said to Wang Peng again: "Director Wang, if you change your mind, please wait until we leave."
You can call us back before entering this building. But if we go too far, we won't come back." After saying that, Xiao Zheng walked out.
