Siheyuan: A Family of Loyal and Brave People

"Just three million? Can't it be more?"

Yan Bugui’s eyes were wide open, as if he wanted to pierce through his bangs with his gaze.

To be honest, three million is already a lot. There are not many people who are willing to pay this price, not to mention that Liu Haizhong will lend some money to help Yan Bugui pay off his debts and prevent him from going to jail. It can be said to be very thoughtful.

But Yan Bugui was still not satisfied.

After all, he would suffer a total loss of seven million, which would not be enough to make up for it even if he emptied his family's savings.

"It's just three million. If it's okay, it's okay. If it's not, it's not. Just give it a straight answer, man."

Liu Haizhong was certain that Yan Bugui would not be able to find a better buyer, so even if he was reluctant, he would eventually have to give in.

"This is the house I spent 10 million on, and in the end it's only worth 3 million, 3 million!"

Yan Bugui bit his teeth to pieces, but couldn't move Liu Haizhong even a little bit.

After a while of hysteria, Yan Bugui, exhausted, could only give up resistance.

"Okay, three million is three million.

But you can’t count the interest on the two million you lent me, because my family is really broke.”

In the end, Yan Bugui couldn't help but feel a little concerned.

Since Liu Haizhong is unwilling to give in on the house price, he should at least give some discount on the interest on the loan.

“If you pay it back within a year, there will be no interest.

Otherwise, you will have to pay bank interest.”

Seeing that the house was in hand, Liu Haizhong did not continue to press and gave Yan Bugui some breathing room.

“One year is too tight.”

Yan Bugui sighed and shook his head slightly.

The Yan family has four children to raise, and no matter how frugal they are in their food and clothing expenses, the amount is not a small amount. It is impossible for them to squeeze out two million in a year.

“There is no reason to borrow money without paying interest.

I'd be happy if I gave you a year's interest-free loan.

If you don't calculate the interest, and you drag it out for decades, how can I collect the debt?

You can’t wait until I’m gone and let my son collect the debt.”

Liu Haizhong did not give in anymore and remained firm on his bottom line for a year.

Given Yan Bugui's character, if there was no interest, he would definitely delay the payment as long as possible, until the person died and the debt was paid off.

“Is it okay if the amount repaid within one year is not counted as interest and the remaining amount is calculated according to bank interest?

No, I'll find someone else."

Yan Bugui believes that every penny saved is a penny earned, every bit of debt owed is a penny earned, and his main goal is to be meticulous.

"Okay, that's it."

Liu Haizhong nodded and agreed to Yan Bugui's plan.

The things that were not obtained at the auction came to you on their own when you returned to the hospital.

Liu Haizhong got a great bargain with almost no effort, and he was very happy.

……

"Qin Min, why are you here? How is the house selling?"

On a weekend morning, Cheng Hao was relaxing at home. He had just finished reading half of the book in his hand when Qin Min came to look for him in a hurry.

"Director, I'm here just because of the house.

The house has been sold for a full 10.1 million.”

As soon as Qin Min stood firm, he began to report the situation.

"One thousand and ten thousand?"

Cheng Hao frowned slightly, looked at Qin Min suspiciously, and said seriously: "Who would spend 10 million to buy that house? It can't be you..."

The higher the price the house is sold for, the more profit the street office makes.

But far above market price is not necessarily a good thing.

Cheng Hao was somewhat suspicious whether Qin Min and his team had used some inappropriate means to improve their performance.

"No no……"

Qin Min quickly waved his hands and explained: "We followed your instructions and did everything according to the procedures. We never crossed the line."

After the auction was over, Qin Min hurried over to report, for he was afraid that Cheng Hao would misunderstand and cause trouble.

“The buyer of that house is Yan Bugui from Courtyard No. 95.

This morning he had a fight with another resident named Liu Haizhong in Yard 95. The two sides had a quarrel, and then..."

Qin Min recounted what happened at the auction in detail.

After hearing this, Cheng Hao's expression instantly relaxed.

"No wonder it can be sold at such a high price, it is reasonable."

Cheng Hao knew very well what kind of people those people were in the courtyard. It was common for them to do some incredible things.

In other words, it would have seemed surprising if nothing unexpected had happened.

"Director, Yan Bugui has already signed the document on the spot under our supervision.

It’s just that he doesn’t seem to have that much money…”

Qin Min continued to report carefully.

This was the real purpose of Tan Min's visit. To seek advice from Cheng Hao on how to deal with Yan Bugui's matter.

Ten million is not a small sum. If Yan Bugui cannot pay so much money, it is inevitable that some trouble will arise.

Whether to punish him severely or let him go depends on Cheng Hao's opinion.

"Our auction is a legal and compliant activity in accordance with procedures, right?"

Cheng Hao did not respond directly, but instead asked a seemingly irrelevant question.

“Yes, we followed the procedure strictly.

There is absolutely no forced sale.”

Qin Min quickly realized Cheng Hao's intentions and continued speaking.

"We sell things, Yan Bugui offers to buy things, it's a mutual agreement, it's reasonable and legal.

Since there is no problem, then we should naturally follow the rules."

Cheng Hao didn't make his words clear, and after he finished speaking, he waved his hand to signal Qin Min to go back.

After getting the guarantee, Qin Min responded and quickly left the hospital without disturbing Cheng Hao's rest.

According to the rules, of course, they would try their best to make Yan Bugui pay the bill.

No matter whether he borrows money or uses other methods, the street office must not lose a penny.

If you refuse to pay, you will be severely punished.

It's not so easy to pay off the debt to the street office.

Not long after Qin Min left, Xu Yun, holding the child, slowly walked out of the house, looked at her husband and asked, "What happened just now?"

Cheng Hao put down the book, stood up and took the child from Xu Yun, and said with a smile: "Nothing, isn't it the street auction today?

During this period, an interesting thing happened. Someone in No. 95 Luoguxiang Courtyard paid million yuan to buy a house of more than square meters in the courtyard.

Judicial auction of houses is a public matter, not a secret, so Cheng Hao just treated it as a joke and told it to his wife and children to cheer them up.

“One thousand and ten thousand?

Our house with its own yard is worth less than ten million.

Is the land at No. 95 Luoguxiang made of gold? "

Xu Yun was also a little shocked.

Although housing prices in Beijing have been rising over the past year or so, a price of 10 million is nearly four times the market average.

I wonder which fool would do such a losing business.

"Zhou Yu fights Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten.

People have deep feelings for the house, so it’s not surprising that they are willing to pay a high price.”

Cheng Hao smiled faintly.

Anyway, Cheng Hao wasn't the one who was indebted, so he just thought it was for fun. The one who should be worried was Yan Bugui.

"That's right. For example, I'm not willing to sell our house for tens of millions."

Xu Yun looked around and nodded in agreement.

It is said that a woman will become stupid for three years after pregnancy. Cheng Hao did not expect Xu Yun to take his joke seriously.

However, when it came to his own house, Cheng Hao did not refute.

Cheng Hao is not short of money, and a mere tens of millions is indeed not enough to move him.
