Siheyuan: He Yuzhu's rebirth in the 21st century

"Mom, Sister Qin said the house is only for rent and not for sale~"

"The rent is five dollars a month, and it must be paid in one lump sum for one year..."

However, before Tian Gouzi could finish his words, he was interrupted by Tian's mother.

"How many?"

When she heard the number, she couldn't believe her ears and asked in shock.

"Mom, the rent is 5 yuan a month, which is 60 yuan for a year!"

Tian Gouzi is almost going crazy wanting a house of his own.

I didn’t realize that the price of 5 yuan was considered a “sky-high price” in this era!

"First, it costs 5 dollars a month! And I have to pay for the whole year in one lump sum?! Isn't this just robbing money?"

"Oh~ my silly son! Did you know that a few years ago, 60 dollars plus a little more money could buy a house?"

"And you're paying 60 bucks for a year's lease?!"

Tian's mother put down the dough and pointed at Tian Gouzi helplessly.

"Mom, you also said that was a few years ago. Now houses cannot be bought and sold!"

"Don't worry, after I rent the house, I will work harder to attract customers every day, and I will definitely make up for it~"

Tian Gouzi curled his lips and argued.

"Who says that houses cannot be sold now? There are many ways to transfer ownership..."

"Silly son, in a word, 5 yuan is too expensive. Mom doesn't agree to rent it!"

When Tian's mother heard that someone wanted to buy or sell a house, she wrote an IOU in advance, saying that she couldn't pay back the money she owed and wanted to use the house to pay off the debt...

It’s just that the housing market is tight right now and fewer people are selling their properties!

"Mom, I really want to have my own house..."

"Silly son, I'm warning you, if you dare to rent it secretly, Mom will hit her head against the door and die!"

Tian's mother also got angry and threatened angrily.

"This...Mom, don't get excited, let's talk it over~"

"By the way, don't stop, keep making noodles for me, I'm starving!"

Tian Gouzi didn't dare to refute his mother. He rubbed his belly and said.

"Eat, eat, eat! What the hell are you eating? Silly son, I really believed your lies."

"You said that Qin was a nice, gentle man... but it turns out he's an ungrateful bastard!"

"You helped her get her mother-in-law to the hospital without charging her a penny, and this is how she repays you?!"

Although Tian's mother was harsh in her words, she did not stop working and picked up the dough again to continue kneading it.

"Mom, how much do you think is a good price to rent that house?"

Tian Gouzi couldn't persuade his mother, so he asked helplessly.

"Monthly payment! The rent should not exceed two dollars a month!"

"If she wants to sell the house, buy it for 100 bucks!"

"Okay, Mom, I'll go ask Sister Qin now."

……

After Tian Gouzi finished eating the scallion noodles made by his mother, he rode his tricycle to the courtyard to find Qin Huairu.

"Dog, you're back so soon?"

"Have you already discussed with your parents about renting the outhouse?"

Qin Huairu spent a long time washing clothes in the middle courtyard, waiting for Tian Gouzi to come back...

Leave him with a good impression of a good wife and mother.

"Yes, Sister Qin, I must rent the house!"

"It's just that my mom thinks 5 dollars for rent is too expensive. Do you think it can be cheaper?"

Every time Tian Gouzi came to the courtyard, he could see Sister Qin busy at work.

I have more respect for her in my heart.

"Dog, is 5 dollars a rent expensive?"

"This is already a discount I'm giving you in recognition of your help..."

"So how much does your mother want for rent per month?"

Qin Huairu was unhappy and asked with a frown.

"My mom means two dollars a month for rent!"

"If you want to sell your house, I'll buy it for $100!"

Tian Gouzi directly reported the maximum authority given by his mother.

I'm sure Sister Qin will agree!

"What? Two dollars? Gouzi, what are you thinking about?"

"Do you know what the market is like in our area?"

"I wonder if you could ask other residents in the compound who would be willing to rent to you at such a low price?"

"Forget it! Let me tell you! Even the smallest and most shabby single room near our yard costs four or five dollars a month!"

Qin Huairu originally wanted to ask him to get out, but after thinking about it, she gave up!

You can't just kick Tian Gouzi away just because you've had a few full meals...

No matter what, I have to catch him and raise him up!

"No, Sister Qin, listen to me. I originally thought that five dollars a month was okay...but my mom thought it was too expensive!"

"And she wouldn't agree to pay a year's rent at once!"

"You said I can't make my mother angry again because of renting a house, right?"

"Why don't you just rent it to me for two dollars a month? At worst I can pay you three months' rent at once!"

"Don't worry, I promise I won't cause you any trouble. I'll leave early and come back late every day and it won't affect your life."

Tian Gouzi said with a pleading look on his face!

He knew that the price he quoted was far from what Sister Qin asked for.

But he didn't want to make his mother angry!

"Two dollars is definitely not enough!"

"Dog, why don't you go ask other residents in the yard if anyone is willing to rent it to you at such a low price!"

"By the way, Yan Bugui from the front yard is the most generous man in our yard. Go ask him!"

Qin Huairu shook her head firmly!

And showed him a "clear path".

Hehe~ Ask Yan Bugui?

Ask! Ask and one will keep silent!

"This... Sister Qin, what's the lowest price?"

Tian Gouzi silently memorized the name Yan Bugui and asked calmly.

"Hey, Gouzi, since you helped our family before, I'll give you a dollar!"

"The monthly rent is 4 dollars, pay it all at once for a year!"

Qin Huairu said with a generous look on her face.

She couldn't really kick Tian Gouzi out, otherwise who would pay such a high rent?

If you really calculate it, the rent for this small single room is at most a little over one dollar a month...

"Sister Qin, wait a minute. I'll go back and ask my mom."

Tian Gouzi couldn't make up his mind, so he rode his tricycle back home to find his mother.

"Mom, Sister Qin said she'll give me a discount of one dollar. The monthly rent is four dollars, payable for one year at a time~"

He looked at his mother triumphantly.

Should she agree now?!

"Silly son! Didn't you hear what mom just said? The rent is no more than two dollars a month! Monthly payment! Monthly payment, understand?!"

"Mom, the rent is two dollars a month, Sister Qin doesn't agree at all!"

Tian Gouzi was very troubled being caught between the two people!

He is quite content with the rent of four dollars a month!

"Silly son, why don't you take mom to talk to Qin? I don't believe she dares to say nonsense in front of me!"

"No! Mom, I'll go by myself!"

Tian Gouzi shook his head and refused.

If my mother intervenes, the talks will definitely fail!

……

"Sister Qin, my mother doesn't agree to the monthly rent of four dollars. Can you give me a little more discount?"

He had no choice but to come to the courtyard again and ask.

"Gouzi, I think you're a good person, so I'll give you one last discount!"

"The rent is three dollars and fifty cents a month, payable in one lump sum for half a year..."

"If you don't agree, please don't come to me again!"

Qin Huairu was afraid that he would give up the rent, so she made concessions again!
