When he was sure that Xu Tongdao could really spend 20,000 yuan to buy this house, his face turned red and he reneged on his promise on the spot, saying that 20,000 yuan was not enough, at least 25,000 yuan was needed.
Xu Tongdao, Ge Lianghua, and Xu Tonglu all criticized him, accusing him of being a grown man who kept his words.
But in the end, Tongdao Xu bought the house for 25,000.
Because this fat man has something to say... Xu Tongdaoxin.
"Even if I keep my word, this house does not belong to me alone. My two brothers also share in it. Even if I agree to sell it to you for 20,000 yuan, my two brothers cannot agree to it. 20,000 yuan
Five! It’s the bottom line they paid me. It’s impossible for them to agree to it below this price. If neither of them agrees, they won’t sign the house sale agreement, and you can’t buy the house.”
That afternoon, Comrade Xu signed an agreement with them and went to the bank to complete the transfer procedures.
The only thing left is the house transfer procedure, which takes time.
However, from today on, this small courtyard belongs to him, Comrade Xu.
The key had been handed over to him, and that afternoon he changed the lock on the courtyard door.
Xu Tongdao didn't feel much about buying a house in the county all of a sudden, but Ge Lianghua, Xu Tonglu, Xu Tonglin and others couldn't help but glance at Xu Tongdao with complicated eyes from time to time while working that night.
After all, a house is a major event in life at any time.
The poor cannot afford to build a house or buy a house in their lifetime.
Even poorer people may not be able to afford a decent house for three generations.
Then it may be true to the old saying - you can't be poor for three generations.
Because after three generations, there will be no fourth generation.
There is an objective fact - no matter what era, if the family house is big or good, it will be much easier to marry a wife when the children and grandchildren grow up. Not only is it not difficult to marry a wife, but you also have the right to pick and choose.
If you want to marry a beautiful wife, it is much easier than others.
At midnight that day, the store closed, and a few of them were on their way back to their residence.
Xu Tonglin: "Xiaodao, do you have time tomorrow? Hehe, I want to go and have a look at the house you bought. Hey, Xiaodao! Are we going to move there in the future? Is it far from our store?
"
Ge Lianghua also asked: "You should move there, right? Anyway, the house you bought is so big, it will definitely be enough for the few of us to live in. In that case, we can save a lot of rent, but the distance is a little far, if we ride a tricycle
, it takes twenty to thirty minutes to go back and forth every day, which is okay in summer, but if it snows in winter, it will be difficult to go."
Xu Tonglu suddenly said: "Brother, why don't you give me the key, and I will go there and clean it during the day tomorrow? I think it's a mess in there. If it's not cleaned, it might not be habitable."
Xu Tongdao casually took out the key and threw it to Xu Tonglu.
"Tomorrow you three should try your best to take some time to tidy up over there! Move all the furniture and stuff to the yard for me. I'll find someone to make a new set of furniture later. I don't want any of the broken furniture in that house now!"
In fact, this was what Tongdao Xu had planned in his mind when he went to see the suite this afternoon.
Not only did he want to get rid of all the existing furniture in the house, he also planned to find someone to renovate the house and the entire yard.
Inside the house, he plans to raise the ceiling, lay floor tiles on the floor, whitewash all the walls, build a new set of furniture, electrical appliances... and buy a few more.
In the next few years, they will definitely live there. Looking back...when his sister Ge Yuzhu finishes her high school entrance examination next year, his mother and sister will also move there.
That will be their new home from now on.
In this case, of course he wanted to decorate it before everyone moved in, so as not to have to wait for others to move in, which would be inconvenient.
Moreover, both decoration materials and workers' wages are very cheap these days.
I estimate that for a few thousand dollars, I can make that house look nice.
"Ah? Don't want all those furniture? Isn't it too wasteful?"
Xu Tonglu was surprised.
Xu Tonglin and Ge Lianghua also advised Xu Tongdao to think again.
No matter how they tried to persuade him, Comrade Xu remained stubborn.
Not only did he plan to renovate the interior of the house, he also planned to renovate the roof and paint the exterior walls.
Even the ground in the yard was planned to be poured with concrete.
"Let's buy a van later! We can drive it to and from get off work every day, and we can also drive it to the vegetable market to buy vegetables every morning. Well, just buy a second-hand van! I noticed that the alley, the van
It can be driven in, and in two days I will have the courtyard gate expanded a little, so that the van can drive directly into the courtyard!"
Xu Tongdao's words shocked Xu Tonglin, Xu Tonglu and Ge Lianghua again.
Xu Tonglin: "Ah? You still want to buy a van? That will cost a lot of money, right?"
After all, he is a child from the countryside. He has no idea about the price of cars. Maybe in his imagination, whether it is a car or a van, one costs at least ten or two hundred thousand!
Xu Tonglu couldn't help but ask: "Brother, do you have so much money?"
However, Ge Lianghua, who was a few years older than them, was not as ignorant about the price of cars as they were because he had lived in the county town for several years.
"Vans are indeed not expensive, and second-hand ones are even cheaper. I heard that you can buy one for around 10,000 yuan, or even a few thousand yuan. However, it is difficult to buy a second-hand car. If you don't buy a good one,
From now on, if I get into trouble on the road every now and then, I’ll have a headache.”
Comrade Xu smiled and said, "It's okay. We'll find a car repairman to help us inspect the car on site. But before we buy a car, we need someone to learn to drive. I'll be one of them! Lin Zi, cousin, you two can discuss it.
,Who will learn to drive with me?"
In fact, before his rebirth, Tongdao Xu could drive and had a driver's license.
For two years, he drove a Wuling Hongguang every day to help the express company deliver goods.
This year, he turned 18 and could take the driving license test.
He knew that it was not difficult to get a driver's license these days. Even if he didn't have time to learn to drive, as long as he could pass the driving school test, he should be able to get a driver's license.
"learn to drive?"
Xu Tonglin frowned, hesitated, and subconsciously looked at Ge Lianghua beside him, "Brother Rooster, how about you go and learn? You are older than me, so you should be more suitable for driving than me. Do you think it's okay?"
Ge Lianghua chuckled, raised his hand to touch the top of his head, and nodded, "That's right! It just so happens that I've wanted to learn to drive a long time ago, so I'll learn it this time! If I go, I'll go!"
…
When he returned to the dormitory that night, Comrade Xu did not rush to sleep. Instead, he took out a pen and paper and drew and wrote out his decoration plan for the house and yard bit by bit on the paper.
He doesn't want to go back to Xujiacun all the time. In his heart, the yard he just bought today is his new home and the new home of his family!
