Chapter 0168 Repair (1)
In the early 1980s, the house prices in Qingshui City were actually not high. Although the industry is still developed here, there were several large factory enterprises, so there were many workers. Logically speaking, the income of the people here is relatively high in the country, but nowadays, most people do not have the concept of buying a house. Most of them are waiting for the factory to divide the house. Once you buy a house, the factory will naturally not divide the house. Therefore, most people would rather be crowded together than spend money alone to buy a house, just to wait for the factory's house allocation indicators. If everyone does not buy a house, the house prices will naturally not be high.
The environment in the courtyard that Qin Lei found this time was not particularly good, just like the place where Qin Lei was at that time was renovated very beautifully in later generations, but it was quite ordinary at this time, especially in a canal behind the courtyard, where domestic sewage in this area was discharged reasonably to this. Although it was not as good as the smelly river not far from the Koushan Village, the taste was actually not particularly good.
In addition, there are dilapidated houses and some small houses built privately. Because these houses do not have sewers, some people who use domestic water will collapse into some ditches that are dug by themselves. The environment can be imagined.
But even so, the Qijianfang Siheyuan only costs 10,000 yuan, and it cannot be considered high even in 1979. The main reason for this low is that the family is anxious to ask for money.
You should know that there are not many people who pay 10,000 yuan in one breath these days, but it is not easy for you to find it in a short time. Therefore, when Qin Lei said the number 10,000 yuan, the other party was so excited!
"This house has been used as a warehouse since it was confiscated, but the foundation is still there. Look at the wood and this brick, it will be fine to live in it for a hundred years after a little repair!" As if worried that Qin Lei would not buy it, the owner said.
To be honest, Qin Lei was a little disgusted, mainly because he didn't expect that the house would be so dilapidated now. Basically, if it were not repaired, there would be no way to live in it.
"Your house is not as good as a warehouse! How can you live in a house after all the tiles are completed!" Qin Lei said helplessly.
"The tiles cost only one yuan. There is no problem with the main body of my house, but the doors and windows are a little damaged. If you want to repair it, it won't cost much. If you really want it, I can give you five hundred yuan cheaper, which is enough for your relatives to repair it!" This person might be really anxious. He opened his mouth and was cheaper, as if he was afraid that Qin Lei would turn around and leave.
Qin Lei ignored the other party and began to think about how long it would take if he went to repair it himself.
As the other party said, although the house seems a bit dilapidated, there is not much problem with the main body, and even if it is overhauled, it will not take much effort.
However, Qin Lei's pondering made the house more and more anxious. There are really not many people who can pay 10,000 in one breath these days. He finally met someone who didn't want the other party to leave. Now that Qin Lei has been hesitating, he just gritted his teeth and said again: "This way! I'm two hundred cheaper, so I can't lose more. If I have less, I would rather not sell it."
The price of 9,000 is exactly the selling price that Qin Lei found in the real estate company of time and space in 2012. He knew that this should be the bottom line of the other party, but seeing the other party's anxious appearance, Qin Lei's heart moved and said, "I can give you ten thousand!"
"What?" The owner was obviously stunned when he heard Qin Lei's words. It was obvious that he had never encountered such a purchase of things and even raised prices for others!
However, just when he was a little confused about what the young man in front of him meant, Qin Lei said again: "But it's not cash!"
The owner of the house smiled unconsciously because Qin Lei suddenly said he wanted to give him 10,000 yuan, but after hearing Qin Lei's words, he subconsciously became a little stiff!
The reason why he wanted to sell this courtyard at such a low price was that he did not want to spend too many nights. Although the policy is now rehabilitated, who knows whether the policy will change again in two years? You must know that their family suffered a lot because of this courtyard. If there is really any change in two years, it will be dead.
So he thought of selling the yard directly, and then taking the money to take his family abroad directly. However, he finally met a person who was willing to buy the yard, but the other party seemed to be unwilling to give cash, but if there was no cash, would he have to pay for the item?
However, just when the owner was about to refuse, he heard Qin Lei continue to say, "I don't have much cash in my hand. Can you buy it with you with gold?"
Qin Lei has enough gold to realize. Last time he dealt with that big Biao brother in Xiangjiang, Qin Lei got a soft girl coin, which barely had tens of thousands of yuan enough to buy the courtyard. However, the gold in Qin Lei's hand is basically unlimited, so he wanted to ask. If the other party agrees, then he will trade gold directly for Qin Lei, which basically means that he has no money spent.
When he heard Qin Lei's words, the man who originally wanted to refuse could not help but hesitate again.
In fact, he was preparing to go abroad after selling his house, so even if Qin Lei gave him cash, he actually needed to go to the black market to exchange it for US dollars. After all, people don’t recognize soft girls and other coins abroad, but if it is gold, it would be different!
After all, gold is also valuable in other countries. Although it is not as convenient as converting it directly into US dollars, you should know that if you want to pay back the US dollar in China, you can only go through the black market. It is actually not cost-effective to exchange soft girls coins there. However, if you take gold out yourself and then sell gold directly abroad, it may be more cost-effective than exchange it in China.
Thinking of this, the owner looked up and looked at Qin Lei again, and then said, "It's OK! But if you use gold, the price will be added to 1,000 yuan."
After saying this, he seemed worried that Qin Lei was unhappy and quickly explained: "You know that when selling gold, there will be some fire consumption, so..."
"Yes!" Qin Lei was too lazy to listen to the other party's explanation. Since the other party agreed to pay with gold, let alone adding a thousand gold price, even if it doubled several times, there would be no difference for Qin Lei.
"Okay! Then when can you trade? I'll say ok first! I can't wait for you for too long." The homeowner said again.
"Is it OK now?" Qin Lei actually wanted to complete the transaction as soon as possible. In fact, if he couldn't buy the house today, Qin Lei and the other two would not even have a place to live at night.
Seeing Qin Lei say this, the owner was a little surprised. He looked at the direction outside in surprise and said, "Are you carrying gold?"
However, when Qin Lei, who was prepared, saw the other party's realization move away from him, he traveled through two or two years of time and space, and then found a nearby gold shop to go in.
Since this gold shop did not have the gold bars that Qin Lei wanted, Qin Lei simply collected all the gold jewelry in the gold shop, and then directly used the spray gun specially used to identify gold to melt the gold jewelry. Then melted them all into gold bars as thick as fingers, and finally cooled the gold bars and put them in your pocket to return to the time and space of 79 years.
Qin Lei worked hard for more than half an hour in 2018, but in 2019, it was only a moment, so that the owner of the house opposite turned his head, but he did not notice anything unusual about the young man standing opposite him from beginning to end.
"Can I take a look at the quality of the gold you brought first? If the quality of that thing is not good, the price difference is still very large!" As he said, he turned his head again to look at Qin Lei. However, he had just turned his head around and saw a handful of yellow and orange strips being handed directly to him.
"Uh..." Looking at the gold bar that was directly hit by Qin Lei's face, the owner was startled. It was not because of anything else. He really didn't expect that Qin Lei would carry so much gold with him.
. "Don't you want to test the quality? How do you want to test it?" Qin Lei seemed to have not noticed the other party's expression at all, and said directly.
After hearing Qin Lei's words, the owner didn't have time to think too much. He took the gold bar from Qin Lei's hand with both hands and began to carefully check it.
The owner of this housekeeper also did business, so he cannot be said to be particularly professional about gold and silver, but the family has a lot of dealing with him. He has his own way of checking the quality of gold.
Soon the gold hand was checked. Qin Lei selected all the gold made of 999 pure jewelry and then melted it with high temperature. Qin Lei was not sure whether there were any impurities in it, but one thing that can be confirmed is that the gold bars made by Qin Lei were definitely of high purity as any organization sold on the market today, so Qin Lei did not show any displeasure to the other party's inspection.
Since there is no problem with gold, the next step is of course normal trading.
It is actually not difficult to buy or sell a house. You can basically get it by going to the local neighborhood committee to issue a certificate. Then the two of them wrote a certificate for transferring the house and asked the neighbors to come over to testify. This matter was basically completed!
Watching the former owner who carefully put the gold bars in his arms and left, Qin Lei shook his head slightly with a handwritten transfer agreement.
To be honest, even when I was the richest in my previous life, I didn’t like this. I bought a house so quickly, and basically I finished it all in less than a day.
In fact, it is quite troublesome to ask the neighborhood committee to help you issue a certificate. If it is normal, it is not impossible to delay for ten days and half a month. However, as the saying goes, money can make the devil push. After Qin Lei secretly gave the neighborhood committee director twenty yuan, everything was like adjusting the acceleration secret while playing a game, and it was completed instantly!
After closing the door, Qin Lei turned around and walked into the courtyard that already belonged to him, and became a little difficult.
Maybe the original homeowner didn't think about coming back to live after getting the house, so let alone furniture, there was no bed, and there was no way to live in it.
"Qin Lei! Have you really bought this house?" The two girls who were visiting the yard asked immediately after seeing Qin Lei back.
"Otherwise! We always have a place to stay here!" Qin Lei glanced at the dilapidated courtyard and said, "Okay! Let's find a guesthouse to stay for two days first, and I'll find someone to clean up here!"
"No need to be so troublesome. The three of us can sleep in the car, so that we can help you clean up the house during the day." Song Nana said quickly.
Compared to Li Zhiqing, she likes this small courtyard very much. Although the house in Kuoshan Village is a two-story building, no matter how good the house in the rural area is, it is still a rural area. In her heart, she is not as good as the house in the city.
"Okay, listen to me and get in the car first!" Qin Lei pulled the two girls into the car without saying a word, and then headed straight to a nearby guesthouse.
The two girls were not originally a material for work, and even if they were left behind, they would not be able to help much, but would still make Qin Lei restricted. Instead of doing this, it would be better to let the two girls leave Qin Lei and stay by themselves and stay more efficiently.
In the past few days, guests need letters of introduction to check in. However, with some experience just now, Qin Lei also found that the people of this era are not as legendary. Everyone has a high awareness and will never accept bribes or anything else. There are not many noble people in reality, but after all, they still account for a minority, and the vast majority of people are still able to take the world!
So Qin Lei found a guesthouse and gave the other party an extra look of unity. The arrogant face that was originally unique to the waiters in state-owned malls immediately smiled. Then he was very polite and opened a standard room for Qin Lei and the others, and even asked Qin Lei if they were hungry, whether they needed to give them a bowl of hot noodle soup to warm up their bodies, etc., so they were simply too enthusiastic!
After refusing the man's kindness, Qin Lei arranged the two girls in the guesthouse and wished them not to run around, Qin Lei went back to the courtyard again and started to work hard!
Although this courtyard looks a bit dilapidated, it is actually quite large in size, much larger than the homestead of Qin Lei’s house in Kuoshan Village. If someone really comes to help with renovation, it is estimated that if all of these houses can be accommodated, it will take at least five or six people to work hard for ten days and half a month. This is a conservative estimate.
However, Qin Lei certainly didn't have that long time, so he was going to do it alone!
Logically speaking, even if Qin Lei can reset his physical condition anytime and anywhere, he can work endlessly without resting, but a person cannot match the speed of five or six people.
However, in fact, Qin Lei's speed is not as fast as five or six people. Even fifty or sixty people will definitely not be able to compare with him. There is no reason, but it is just a cheat!
After returning to the yard and closing the gate, Qin Lei immediately started to operate.
The doors and windows are easy to work with. If you don’t want to spend time and trouble, just go to the 22-year time and space to find ready-made ones. The tiles on the roof are easy to find. If you don’t have new ones, you can just go to the bungalows in the suburbs. As for the furniture in the house, it’s even easier. You can find any furniture city to find anything like you want. However, Qin Lei thinks that these things are not particularly important. In fact, there was another thing before that. Qin Lei felt that he had to make it first.
Chapter completed!
