Chapter 229: Capital Earns Money, Capital Spends Money
The four wheels really ran fast. In just ten minutes, the car stopped in front of a courtyard house with a strong ancient flavor in the direction pointed by Brother Li.
As soon as Fu Wan and Fu Ming got off the car, they were shocked by the scene in front of them.
Oh my God, this is not a courtyard house, this is clearly the mansion of some high-ranking official!
Look at this vermilion gate, even the carvings on the door beams are lifelike.
Seeing that the two of them were standing there in a daze and the female comrade was difficult to pull over, Brother Li grabbed Fu Ming.
"Comrade, come this way."
He took out the key and walked forward to open the big lock hanging on the door.
When the door was pushed open, the brother and sister were again amazed by the scene inside. Fu Wan now really felt like a country bumpkin coming to the city, having never seen anywhere before.
But it's not her fault. Just imagine, who has a rockery in their yard? Under the rockery is a small pond with some blooming lotus flowers in it.
The yard was the same as Ning San's, with a pomegranate tree. This tree was bigger than the one in Ning San's yard. Fu Wan walked under the tree, and a breeze happened to blow in at this moment, which immediately made her feel refreshed and comfortable.
Brother Li took them on a tour around the house. This was the house left by his great-grandfather. Because of this house, his family was robbed by the landlord a few years ago, and it was only returned to him in the past two years.
Fu Wan also noticed that there were signs of damage in the yard, and the windows were visibly smashed.
She and Fu Ming looked at the whole house one after another. Fu Ming had forgotten how many dabuluos the house needed and kept talking about it to Fu Wan.
This house is good, this house is good!
How could she not know that this house is good? If it weren't good, why would she ask for 50,000?
This was 50,000 yuan in the 1980s, and its value is comparable to tens or even millions decades later!
After seeing this house, they went to the two-courtyard house next to it.
This two-entry courtyard is not small. The front yard is similar to the one they saw before, but there is no rockery. However, there are many trees planted in the backyard, which looks very beautiful.
Fu Ming wished he had the money to buy it. He didn't have any thoughts about the ambergris this time. He just thought that he was able to come to the capital to play because of his sister.
Now when I see such a nice house, I just regret that I am poor and cannot buy such a nice house.
After looking at the house, there is a shop. There is nothing good about the shop. Brother Li’s shop has already been rented out. The rent is 300 yuan per month. The two shops are facing the intersection and the location is very good.
"Comrade Fu, you've finished looking at this house and shop. What do you think?"
It was almost noon when he finished walking around. Brother Li was feeling nervous. He felt that if he could sell one shop today, even if it was a cheaper one, all his hard work would be worth it.
"Brother Li, did you bring the contract? If you did, let's go directly to the Housing Authority!"
Brother Li was at a loss as to what to do with this, and it took him a while to react.
"Go to the Housing Authority? Great! I have the contract with me, I'll be right there!"
When Brother Li arrived at the Housing Authority and took out the contract, Fu Wan asked him to include the two courtyard houses and two shops. Brother Li was so shocked that he couldn't hold the pen steadily, and it fell to Fu Wan's feet.
Fu Wan bent down to pick up the pen, but when she looked up, she saw the complicated expression on Brother Li's face.
What, he doesn't want to sell it again?!
"Brother Li, you..."
Brother Li opened his mouth and it took him a long time to find his voice.
His voice was still trembling. "Comrade Fu, are you saying you want both those courtyard houses and the two shops we saw today?"
Oh my god, he thought he was lucky to sell one. Where did Qin Fu find such a rich girl?!
Fu Wan nodded calmly. In fact, she was a little bit unbelievable in her heart. The two courtyards and two shops combined had not even spent a fraction of the money earned from selling ambergris!
Although they were shocked, people on both sides were genuinely happy.
As soon as the contract was signed, Fu Wan followed Brother Li to the bank next to the Housing Authority to transfer money. Fu Ming followed behind throughout the process, acting as a bodyguard for his sister.
After the money was transferred and the house was transferred, Fu Wan asked Brother Li to register the larger courtyard house in her own name and the smaller one in Fu Ming's name. Brother Li didn't think much of it and was about to run to do it, but Fu Ming next to him was unwilling.
"Why write my name on this? This is all your money, I don't want it!"
Fu Wan glared at him and said unhappily, "Just take it if I give it to you. What? You don't like it?"
This is not just looking down on others, this is really looking up to them!
The problem is that he doesn’t dare to ask for it!
Seeing that everyone around him was looking at him, he was afraid of being embarrassed and didn't say much.
He just thought that even if the house was named after him, he would remember that it was Awan's house.
Fu Wan didn't care. She had planned from the beginning to have one set for herself and one for Fu Ming. If she got tired of living in Fujia Village and wanted to live in the capital, she and her whole family could move in together.
Brother Li doesn't care about the brother and sister. He has figured out that the sister is the one who makes the decisions, and the brother should step aside!
When he was transferring the property, he saw the letter of introduction from Fu Wan and the other person. He had never heard of the address on the letter, so he thought the child was from a wealthy family. After all, how could an ordinary family have the courage to take hundreds of thousands of dollars just like that?
After the house was transferred, the hot property certificate appeared in Fu Wan's hand.
Fu Wan handed Fu Ming's book to him. Although he had made up his mind to return it to Awan, when he saw his name written in the holder column on the property certificate, Fu Ming couldn't help but get excited.
He, Fu Ming, also owns a house in Beijing!
I guess no one would believe me if I brag about this in the village!
Both the brother and sister were very happy. Fu Wan was delighted when she thought that she had bought four properties with only 120,000 yuan.
Brother Li was also happy. Once the house was sold, he could immediately go find his wife and children.
After all, it was a house passed down from his ancestors, so Brother Li reluctantly handed the keys to Fu Wan, and then took her to the store to make an agreement with the tenant that the rent would be transferred to Fu Wan's account in the future.
By the time all this was done, it was time for dinner.
Because he was happy, Brother Li insisted on playing the role of host and took Fu Ming and Fu Wan to a nearby restaurant for lunch.
When dining in Beijing, roast duck is a must. Besides roast duck, there are also dishes like shredded pork with Beijing sauce. Fu Wan and Fu Ming tried them for fun at first, but after a few bites, they felt a little greasy.
After lunch, Fu Wan and Fu Ming said goodbye to Brother Li, and now they were in the mood to have fun.
The two of them went to Tiananmen Square. Since they couldn't climb the Great Wall anymore, they bought six roast ducks and various special pastries. Finally, they went to the guesthouse to pack up and prepare to take the evening train back to Fujia Village.
Just as the two were checking out, Qin Fu came to their door and gave them two sleeper tickets.
It’s really thoughtful of you to give me a pillow when I’m sleepy!
After thanking Qin Fu, Fu Wan looked at the luggage which was two or three times more than when they came here, and she sighed, it is true that one makes money in Beijing and spends it in Beijing!
Fortunately, ambergris is valuable, otherwise it would not be enough for her to spend!
