After the matter was settled, the brothers and sisters walked around the villa again before leaving the yard and preparing to go home.

Zhang Chaoyang looked at Zhang Jialing while riding a bicycle and said.

"Little sister, where did you get the money? This is fifty-eight thousand, but it's a lot of money?"

Zhang Jialing knew that her cousin must have doubted where she got the money from, so she just laughed.

"My cousin, don't you know? I have bet on jade several times in the antique street in Beijing in the past two years. I have been pretty lucky. I have found several pieces of jade and sold them for a lot of money. Now I only have four More than 10,000, still short of nearly 10,000.

So I want to go back and ask my second uncle and my aunt to borrow 10,000 yuan first. When I return to Beijing, I will sell a piece of jade and the money will be enough. Then I can pay it back to my second uncle and my aunt. "

Zhang Chaoyang and Zhang Chaoyan stared at Zhang Jialing with a smile on his face. After a while, Zhang Chaoyan looked at Zhang Jialing.

"I said, little sister, you are too good. We also have stone gamblers here in Zhonghai. My eldest brother and I also went gambling, but unfortunately we didn't get the jade stone. You must be so lucky!"

Zhang Chaoyan shouted exaggeratedly, Zhang Chaoyang rolled his eyes and scolded.

"Keep your voice down, we are outside, don't pay attention, you want to bring trouble to my little sister!"

Zhang Chaoyan immediately stopped and looked around. Fortunately, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon and there was no one around. Everyone was probably hiding at home to escape the heat due to the hot weather.

"Haha, it's mainly because I'm too excited, too excited." Zhang Chaoyan explained with a sly smile.

Zhang Jialing was a little moved when she heard her second cousin say that there was a place for gambling on stones in Zhonghai City. However, thinking that she was new to Zhonghai and not familiar with this place, after much deliberation she decided to go back to Beijing to gamble on stones. .

In fact, when Zhang Jialing was in Beijing, he sold an antique for the first time and used it to buy a courtyard house. He no longer wanted to sell antiques. It was better for the antiques to stay in the space. As for the gold in the space, it was even more impossible. Moved, because gold is hard currency at any time. If it is sold now for money, it will be a bit of a loss. After all, money is just a piece of paper, and gold is gold and can be used as currency at any time.

Zhang Jialing also has jade in her space, but she has no excuse to sell it. Besides, money is valuable now, but it will depreciate very much in a few decades.

After several people returned home, Zhang Jianguo happened to be at home too. He seemed to have returned from inspecting work outside. He was also very happy when he saw Zhang Jialing and his two siblings.

"Ling Ling is here."

"Second uncle."

After some pleasantries, Zhang Jianguo asked Zhang Jialing what he was doing out there. Zhang Jialing didn't hide anything, so he told her about going to see a house, and also said directly that she was going to borrow 10,000 yuan.

After hearing this, Zhang Jianguo said nothing and agreed directly.

"That's a good thing. Wait, the second uncle will get you some money."

After saying that, he went straight into the house and walked out within a few minutes carrying a bag.

"Is ten thousand yuan enough? If it's not enough, my second uncle will get you some more."

Zhang Jialing waved her hands quickly.

"That's enough, that's enough. Second uncle, I have 48,000 yuan. With your 10,000 yuan, I can just buy that house."

Zhang Jianguo nodded after hearing this.

"Well, that's enough."

After speaking, he told the two brothers Zhang Chaoyang.

"I'll accompany your sister to arrange things for the house tomorrow."

Early the next morning, the brothers and sisters got up, had dinner, and rode bicycles to the concession. When they arrived at the concession, the middle-aged man had already arrived and was standing smoking under the shade of the sycamore tree. When he heard the sound of the bicycle, he When I looked up, I saw the figures of several brothers and sisters. Then I threw down the cigarette butt and stomped on it with my feet.

When he arrived, Zhang Chaoyang got off his bicycle.

"Sorry uncle, we are late."

The middle-aged man waved his hand.

"It's not late, it's just that I woke up early. The people from the street office haven't gone to work yet. Come on, let's walk over slowly."

On the way to the street office, Zhang Chaoyang chatted with the middle-aged man and almost found out about the landlord of this house.

It turns out that the owner of this villa is a Chinese-French man who now lives in Xiangjiang. He was born in the 1930s. His father is Chinese and a businessman. The business in Zhonghai City at that time was pretty good. Of course, Compared with the big business giants, there are still many differences, so his villa is not considered big, it is considered a medium-sized villa in the concession.

His mother is French. Later, after the war broke out and R himself occupied Zhonghai, his family's business also suffered a blow and could no longer continue. In the end, his father took them to Guangzhou and traveled around He came to Xiangjiang and settled in Xiangjiang ever since.

Before leaving, he handed over the villa to the middle-aged man's father and asked him to take care of it. This care lasted for decades. The middle-aged man's father also passed away a few years ago, and then the house was let to him. The middle-aged man looked after it.

A few years ago, the SRB was crushed and the country began to reform and open up. When Xiangjiang found out, he sent a message to the middle-aged man to find a way to sell the villa.

The middle-aged man began to spread the news, but now in China, few people can get fifty or sixty thousand yuan at once, so the news of selling the house has been out for more than a year, and the person who came to see the house is Quite a few, but knowing that the price would not be reduced, I had no choice but to give up.

So when the middle-aged man knew that Zhang Chaoyang and the others were going to buy it, he was also very happy. Starting from his father and himself, he had been taking care of it for decades. He was also a little annoyed. This was not his own house, and he had to take care of it every once in a while. Let's clean it up some time ago.

When the group arrived at the sub-district office, the people from the sub-district office just started to go to work, and the procedures were completed smoothly. Zhang Chaoyang took the document that the representative gave up from the staff, looked at it and handed it to Zhang Jialing.

"Take it, little sister, this house will be yours from now on."

Zhang Jialing looked at the document. This means that the villa will be his own from now on. The address, layout and size of the house are written on it.

After leaving the street office and receiving the key to the house from the middle-aged man, the brothers and sisters went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a few more locks before going to the villa again.

Opening the door and looking at the weeds in the yard, Zhang Jialing thought about how to deal with all the weeds here. Although the middle-aged man cleaned the house every once in a while, if he wanted to move in, he would have to clean it again. , and it needs to be cleaned carefully.

"Little sister, when are you going to come clean?"

Zhang Jialing thought about it for a moment and shook his head.

"I won't clean it for now. I will go back to Beijing to go to school soon. As for the house here, I won't live in it for the time being, so I'll just leave it like this! I just want to trouble my two brothers to come and help when they have free time. I'll clean it up."

"It's easy to say. When nothing happens, your second brother and I will come and clean it."
