Siheyuan: From Being Called Shazhu

Perhaps, in the eyes of some people, real estate companies, especially those related to "demolition" and "relocation", grew wildly in the 8s, 90s, and even in the 00s.

That’s about right.

However, sometimes, we have to analyze the specific situation.

Like now.

Now, where is He Yuzhu’s “hometown”?

To put it simply, it is called Nanluoguxiang, Dongcheng District.

To put it in a broader sense, it is called the capital.

Beijing, well-known.

Any brick that falls may hit someone's childhood friend, classmate, old neighbor, or old acquaintance.

Not to mention that there is a possibility that it may directly hit someone.

In this situation, those real estate companies are not stupid, so how could they "rush around"?

Moreover, even if those companies become arrogant and start to look down on others in the later stages.

But the people behind those companies will never.

Like now.

The He family has long been famous.

Let’s not talk about the left and right sides of Nanluoguxiang.

Just in the alley, everyone knows that Master He's children are all high-ranking officials.

Well, since the people from the street are always there to accompany us when we take over the houses and discuss the demolition.

How could the people in the real estate company not know about the He family?

A week is enough time for them to "investigate".

Again.

No one is stupid.

Especially now, there are no fools among those who can open a real estate company.

In this situation, you cannot offend others for no reason just for a few rooms, or, to put it in a bigger way, for a yard.

so what.

When He Yuzhu and his family were chatting and laughing noisily in the house, people from the real estate company came "respectfully" to the door with a bunch of gift boxes and other things.

Even, to show respect.

The group behind the real estate company sent a representative with the boss of the real estate company.

There is no "pretending to be cool and then getting slapped in the face" segment, nor is there a "playing the pig and eating the tiger" plot.

Also.

He Yuzhu and his family never thought of "making trouble", otherwise, there wouldn't be a row of "unit" cars parked neatly in front of the door.

This is the end.

Both sides had a pleasant conversation.

Especially real estate companies, they are very "face-giving".

The conditions given can be considered to be on the verge of "open bribery".

A one-to-one exchange was carried out to the south side of Nanluoguxiang, on the wide street past Di'anmen East Street.

Moreover, a "subsidy" of 5000 yuan is given per square meter.

What does 91 yuan per square meter mean in 5000?

Let's just put it that way.

Last year, in 90, after the Asian Games, the nearby Asian Games Village became a high-end "foreign-related" community, known as the first "rich area".

The housing price in that community is only 6000 yuan per square meter.

As for the community opposite that community, which is known as the "first commercial housing community", the price is only 2000 yuan per square meter.

Not to mention the prices of other houses.

Such a conversion.

The conditions offered by the other side are equivalent to giving away a house for free, and the area of ​​the house is at least 2.5 times that of this "old, dilapidated and small" house.

Of course, this is also based on the premise that He Daqing wants to move away.

However, He Daqing had no intention of moving away at all.

Such conditions are nothing more than giving each other face in the spirit of "I'm good, you're good, and everyone is good".

Just like that, the people from the real estate company left.

At the same time, they also told those who were still waiting for news in the compound that the entire compound, as an "ancient building", would not be "demolished".

Now, the neighbors in the courtyard began to feel disappointed.

Yes.

Some people may think that living in a courtyard house is very comfortable.

But, this is subject to certain conditions.

That is, the courtyard house must be decorated in a modern style.

Lived in an old courtyard house.

No, you don’t have to live in an old courtyard house.

If you ask people who have lived in old bungalows or large tiled houses in the countryside to choose, they may choose the building without any hesitation.

There is no toilet and no drainage.

Yes, there are rats, cockroaches, ants, snakes, and insects.

That environment is really hard to describe.

And now, they clearly have the opportunity to "escape", but in the end, it has become a "fantasy".

How could they not be disappointed?

Moreover, amidst the disappointment, gossip also came out.

"It's because the He family doesn't want to move that our entire compound can't move. There's nothing we can do about it. Their son and daughter are both very successful and high up, so their words are always effective."

See, that's human nature.

However, this rumor was only spread among them "privately" and in a "small circle" for a few days before it died down.

After all, the row of "unit" cars parked at the gate of the compound are not just for decoration.

In a blink of an eye, a month has passed.

It’s February 2th.

Don’t think that this is not the era of Internet information explosion yet.

However, with the spread of TV dramas, movies, and various "cultures" from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

February 2th is also “Valentine’s Day” in the eyes of young people.

but.

In previous years, yes.

February 2 this year, no.

To put it bluntly, it is also New Year's Eve.

During this year's Chinese New Year, He Daqing was taken to the compound by He Yuzhu and spent the New Year with He Yuzhu and his family.

However, early in the morning on the first day of the new year, He Daqing went back home making a fuss.

In the words of the old man, "Don't urge a man to drink when he's sixty, don't let a man stay overnight when he's seventy, don't let a man eat when he's eighty, and don't let a man sit when he's ninety."

After the Chinese New Year, he was already 76 years old, and was about to turn 80, so he decided not to stay.

He Yuzhu thought, it doesn’t matter where we celebrate the New Year.

Well, the whole family drove several cars and returned to the courtyard together.

However, as soon as he got off the car, He Yuzhu regretted it.

From a distance he could see Xu Wude and Xu Damao talking to someone in the compound.

Moreover, they also looked at He Yuzhu and his group.

"Boss, I remember you have some things to do back home, right? Okay, now that we've sent you here, just take your wife and children back home."

He Yuzhu took the things from little He Wen's hand and spoke to little He Wen naturally in a normal voice.

"Ok?"

Although little He Wen looked confused.

However, little He Wen, who was quick to react, nodded immediately.

"Okay, Dad, I'll take them back first."

After saying that, little He Wen said something to He Daqing, then left with his wife and children.

"Really? It's Chinese New Year, and my son didn't even bother to let the child take a break."

Shi Xiaona understood what He Yuzhu meant and tried to make up for it at the right time.

However, this has nothing to do with He Yuzhu.

At this time, He Yuzhu was waving behind him.

"Huang'er, no matter what happens, stay with me at all times. Also, no matter what I say, the order will remain in effect until I return to the compound or school."

"Yes, understand."

When Xiao Huang heard it was an order, he subconsciously wanted to stand at attention.

However, he was stopped by a look from He Yuzhu.

After making a gesture behind him, Xiao Huang stood in front of He Yuzhu.

This period of time was enough for Xu Wude and Xu Damao to finish talking to the people in the compound and come over.

"Lao He, you bastard, I came back yesterday and planned to have a drink with you, but when I asked, I found out that you went to the pillar."

As he spoke, Xu Wude naturally walked to He Daqing's side.

"Okay, Lao He, now that Zhuzi and Yushui have both made it, you can enjoy your life too."

On the other side, Xu Damao also came to He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, it's been a long time..."

But before he could finish his words, Xiao Huang stretched out his hand to stop him.

"Sorry, please make way."

"Okay."

He Yuzhu smiled and patted Xiao Huang's arm.

"This is my old neighbor. It's okay."

"No, Chief, it's my duty."

Xiao Huang remained unmoved.

He Yuzhu gave Xu Damao a helpless expression.

"Da Mao, I'm sorry."

After saying this, without giving Xu Damao any time to respond, He Yuzhu raised his hand towards Xu Damao, indicating what he had in his hand.

"Well, Damao, I'll take the things back to the house first, and we can chat again when we have time."

Even though He Yuzhu said this, Xu Damao still nodded with a smile on his face.

"Well, that's fine. Go ahead and do your work. I'll come find you later."

"it is good."

Faced with a shameless "childhood friend", He Yuzhu still couldn't just turn against him.

I could only nod in response.

With He Daqing, who had also escaped, and Shi Xiaona who had been waiting, the whole family returned to the central courtyard and entered the house.

As soon as he entered the room and sat down, He Daqing spoke.

"Zhu Zi, go back."

Obviously, He Daqing also knew what was going on.

However, He Yuzhu shook his head and refused.

"Forget it, Dad. We're blocked now. It's no use going back. We might as well find out what's going on now."

As he spoke, He Yuzhu gestured to He Daqing and pointed at Xiao Huang.

"Okay, then you can figure it out yourself."

He Daqing didn't say anything else.

As a family, we should just do what we should do.

It’s different from what He Yuzhu thought.

Xu Wude and his son Xu Damao did not come all day.

Instead, he waited until after dinner, when He Yuzhu and the others had left, before coming over.

Moreover, he came over casually, carrying a few plates of snacks and a few bottles of wine.

"Lao He, we haven't seen each other for a long time. This time, during the New Year, why don't we have a good drink together?"

As soon as he entered the door, Xu Wude started to shut He Daqing up with words.

Even Xu Damao started to shut He Yuzhu up with words.

"Yes, Dad, it's been 30 years since Zhuzi and I last saw each other. This time, it's just right, you and Uncle He, you two old brothers have a drink, and Zhuzi and I will have a drink as brothers."

He Daqing looked at He Yuzhu.

The meaning is obvious, you decide.

He Yuzhu smiled.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Xu. My dad was not in good health in the past two years, and the doctor forbade him to drink."

However, looking at He Daqing's slightly angry face, He Yuzhu changed the subject.

"But you know my dad, how could he not drink? But the doctor gave the old man a fixed amount, and he really listened to him. He only drinks two taels a day, and he definitely won't drink more. Look, today's fixed amount has been reached."

As he said this, He Yuzhu spread his hands apologetically towards Xu Wude and Xu Damao.

"As for me, there's nothing I can do about it. There are rules and I can't drink."

After saying that, He Yuzhu looked up at the "clock" hanging on the wall.

"How about this, Uncle Xu, Damao, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. It's getting late."

"Well, what's the matter? We haven't seen each other for a long time, so we thought we could sit down and have a drink and catch up during the New Year."

Xu Damao was still talking nonsense.

However, the difference was that after Xu Wude was stunned for a moment, he patted Xu Damao's arm.

"Okay, Damao."

After saying that, he looked at He Yuzhu.

"Zhu Zi, if that's the case, then I'll be frank. A while ago, Damao and I got an agency for a cosmetics company in Dengta in Hong Kong Island. You know, back then, my family and the Lou family were... forced to leave. We haven't been back for so many years, and to be honest, we're not sure. After learning about your and your sister's family's situation, I wanted to get you and your sister's family to work with us."

Seeing that He Yuzhu clearly had the intention of refusing, Xu Damao took over the conversation.

"Zhu Zi, listen to me first. I know that you and Yu Shui have a rule that prohibits you from doing business. But don't worry, I will definitely not cheat you. When the time comes, you won't need to be listed as a shareholder, nor will my sister-in-law or anyone else. As long as you spread the word, I will deposit 30% of the dividends into your designated account on time every month."

He Yuzhu shook his head and was about to speak.

Xu Damao did not give He Yuzhu time to respond and said directly:

"Zhu Zi, to be honest, in Hong Kong, white gloves are already an open secret. There is a complete set of countermeasures for a series of processes. Don't worry, as long as you nod, I will definitely handle it for you seamlessly."

He Yuzhu wanted to laugh when listening to Xu Damao's words.

To be honest, if He Yuzhu really wanted to do the white gloves, he wouldn't need Xu Damao, who is adapted to the business model of Hong Kong Island, to do it.

After all, to put it bluntly, this thing can be said to be something left behind by our ancestors.

Let's just put it that way.

Last month, wasn't the real estate company that carried out the demolition also the white glove of those people?

Right?

He Yuzhu waved his hand.

"Uncle Xu, Damao, thank you for taking me with you when you made your fortune. But forget about participating, just do it on your own. But don't worry, it's different now. If you act legally, compliantly and reasonably, no one will do the same as before."

Seeing that He Yuzhu refused, Xu Wude and Xu Damao wanted to say something.

However, He Yuzhu still shook his head.

"Really, Uncle Xu, Damao, I really won't get involved. You guys can do it yourselves."

Seeing He Yuzhu's firm attitude, Xu Wude and Xu Damao said nothing.

However, Xu Wood pondered for a moment and spoke again.

"Then how about this, Zhuzi, you don't need to put your name on the company, and you don't need to receive shares or dividends. You can just be our agent and help us promote the company, is that ok?"

Having said that, Xu Wood began to feel confident again.

"Don't worry, Zhuzi, we won't let you endorse for nothing. When the time comes, the second-level or third-level agents we develop will be registered under your name. At that time, your income will be legitimate agency fees, not shares or dividends."

After hearing what Xu Wude said, Xu Damao finally understood.

"Yes, Zhuzi, this model does not prohibit you from participating. Many of our downline employees now have regular jobs. You can rest assured about this."
