Siheyuan: A Family of Loyal and Brave People

In line with the principle of benefiting the people, the subdistrict office set the starting price of the house very low. Therefore, even though the price doubled quickly, it was still lower than the average housing price in the city.

Considering the superior geographical location of the Siheyuan, the market price of the Jia family's house should be several percent higher than the average house price, and there is still a lot of room for negotiation.

Therefore, prices are still rising.

Looking at the ever-increasing prices, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui both looked a little heavy.

Judging from the current situation, there is no hope of getting a bargain. You must pay a sufficient price to get the house.

No one would be in a good mood when thinking about the limited savings in their pockets.

Bidding is fierce in the early stages of the auction, but it won’t always be fierce.

As the price increases, the intensity begins to decrease, and when the price reaches the average housing price in 49 cities, the number of competitors drops sharply.

Due to time constraints, many people attending the auction had never personally inspected the Jia family’s house and had little idea of ​​its actual value.

Most people’s psychological expectations are around the average house price.

Once this limit is exceeded, they will give up decisively.

Liu Haizhong sat in his seat, silently observing the situation around him.

Those who are still willing to buy the house are indeed acquaintances in Luoguxiang.

These people know the ins and outs of Courtyard 95, are more aware of the value of the Jia family's house, have a stronger demand for the house, and their psychological expectations are much higher than those of those who are just joining in the fun outside.

It was only at this point that the real battle began.

"I'll pay three million."

Liu Haizhong took a deep breath and quoted the price in a deep voice.

Everyone present was startled when they heard the voice and looked over.

The Jia family's house of more than 40 square meters is worth just over 2 million yuan according to the market price, and the latest bid before that was just under 2.5 million yuan.

No one expected Liu Haizhong to be so generous. He added 500,000 in one go, looking like he was determined to win.

"Is there a higher price?"

Seeing that everyone in the meeting hall was stunned, Qin Min asked a question at the right time.

If no one offers a higher price, the house will belong to Liu Haizhong.

"Three million and one hundred thousand."

Yan Bugui came to his senses and gritted his teeth and raised the price.

The heroic spirit in his bangs could scare off an uninformed person, but it could not scare Yan Bugui who was equally determined to win.

The two sides have been fighting openly and secretly for a long time. No matter what, Yan Bugui will not let Liu Haizhong succeed easily.

"Old Yan, we are neighbors in the same courtyard. Do you think it's fun to do this?

What benefit can you get except causing trouble for me?

Please help me this time, so as not to hurt everyone's harmony."

Liu Haizhong had expected Yan Bugui to jump out, and he immediately spoke out to persuade him.

Everyone present had lost the desire to compete. As long as Yan Bugui was willing to give in, Liu Haizhong would be able to win easily.

“Lao Liu, this is an open auction, the highest bidder will win.

If you want to buy a house, just make an offer. Let's compete fairly and don't talk about hurting each other's feelings."

Yan Bugui's voice was cold and his attitude was firm.

Yan Bugui knew that his savings were not as rich as Liu Haizhong's. If the stalemate continued, Liu Haizhong would have a better chance of winning. But this did not stop him from taking this opportunity to deplete Liu Haizhong's wealth.

As long as he spends all of Liu Haizhong’s savings this time, the next time he encounters such a thing, Yan Bugui will have one less powerful competitor.

Yan Bugui wants to prepare for a rainy day and play the long game to catch a big fish.

"Three million and twenty thousand."

Liu Haizhong didn't waste any time and immediately started raising the price.

Since Yan Bugui wants to compete in financial strength, he will accompany him to the end to see who gives in first.

The auction became a battle between the two of them. Both sides raised the price by tens of thousands, testing the other's bottom line little by little.

In this way, the price soon reached the 3.5 million mark.

Liu Haizhong saw that this was not a solution and was also getting annoyed by Yan Bugui's entanglement, so he suddenly changed his strategy and launched a fierce attack.

"four million!"

Everyone present gasped. Four million, this was almost twice the market price.

Is the house at No. 95 Luoguxiang really that good that it can be sold at such an outrageous price?

"Four million and one hundred thousand."

Yan Bugui was stunned for a moment, then he added another ten thousand. He knew that Liu Haizhong's family had a lot of savings, and with Liu Guangqi's pension, the family's assets must be more than ten million. Four million was far from Liu Haizhong's bottom line.

"Four and a half million!"

Liu Haizhong seemed to be angry and directly raised the price to 500,000.

"Four million five hundred and ten thousand."

Yan Bugui did not hesitate and used the same old trick again, giving Liu Haizhong ten thousand more than he did, just to disgust people.

"five million!"

"Five million and one hundred thousand."

"Ten million!"

"One thousand and one million!"

When Yan Bugui shouted out one million and one hundred thousand, his pupils suddenly widened, and he opened his mouth but was speechless for a moment, unable to utter a word.

No, I fell into a trap!

Yan Bugui only felt a buzzing in his head and cold sweat on his back. He mechanically turned his neck to look at Yi Zhonghai not far away, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

Yan Bugui hoped that Liu Haizhong would be carried away and continue to raise the price, otherwise he could not afford the price of 10 million.

"Hahaha!"

Liu Haizhong clapped his hands and laughed out loud. His laughter was like thunder that echoed in the hall and was like a thunderbolt exploding in Yan Bugui's heart.

"Old Yan, you are awesome, really awesome!"

Liu Haizhong raised his thumb and looked at Yan Bugui with a playful look.

"Since you offer such a high price, I have no choice but to give up and admit defeat."

"Uh~

I just made a slip of the tongue. I didn't bid 1.01 million. That's not what I meant.

Comrade, you still…"

Yan Bugui quickly waved his hands to defend himself.

Before he could finish his words, Qin Min interrupted Yan Bugui and said in a deep voice: "What do you think this place is? This is a judicial auction hosted by the Street Office, how can you mess around like that?

Everyone present just heard you offer a price of 1.01 million.

Since the offer has been made, it cannot be withdrawn.

If no one offers more, you’ll have to pay for the house.”

"That's right, hurry up and pay the money, hurry up and pay the money..."

Everyone present stood up and agreed.

It's a rare occasion to encounter such a big event, and they are eager to watch the fun. How could they let Yan Bugui go easily?

"This...I..."

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yan Bugui was so nervous that he spoke incoherently.

Liu Haizhong, whose plan had worked, gloated and stepped forward to congratulate him: "Old Yan, don't refuse. Congratulations, the house is yours."

"But I don't have that much money."

Yan Bugui spread his hands and said helplessly.

The Yan family had a lot of savings, but only a few million. They couldn't even raise 10 million even if they sold everything they had.

Even if Yan Bugui sold himself, he couldn't afford that much money.

"No money? Yan Bugui, you'd better think it over before you speak.

If you don’t have money and bid recklessly, you are maliciously disrupting the market order and causing damage, and you will be held legally responsible.”

Qin Min warned coldly: "Don't talk nonsense. If you don't want to go to the police station, go back and raise money."
