Chapter 112 Buying a few 4-room houses
Yujia Hutong.
The courtyard house bought by Yu Fengjiao’s uncle is here.
Yu Dewang also has the surname Yu, and his house is also here, but there is not much connection between him and Yu Fengjiao.
It just so happens that everyone in this alley happens to have the surname Yu.
Zhang Yaoyang came here specifically to take a look at the situation.
The main thing was to see if I got into any trouble after dealing with Yu Dewang.
In a fit of righteous indignation, he locked the other person in a secret room. I think he must have almost starved to death by now.
Without food and water, a person's life span can only last for seven days at most.
As it turned out, the people who found Yu Dewang did not dare to call the police. A living person disappeared, and no one cared about it.
However, there is a sign for sale on his house, and the price is 5 yuan.
This house is very well maintained and renovated, and is in a good location in the city center. Although 5 yuan is quite expensive, compared to later generations, I'm afraid even 5000 million yuan may not be able to buy it.
Zhang Yaoyang naturally wanted to take advantage of the situation. After buying this house, the value would still appreciate if he resold it in the future. However, the several dead bodies in the secret room were a bit disgusting and needed to be dealt with.
This was not a problem for him.
The one who put this up for sale was one of Yu Dewang's concubines. As for his first wife, she was said to be an illiterate country woman who had divorced Yu Dewang long ago.
Before this concubine got married, Yu Dewang got into trouble.
Now that the tree has fallen, the monkeys have scattered. Everyone knows that this house is not clean and is involved in many shameful things. Fearing that there may be problems involved, they decided to sell it.
Zhang Yaoyang simply used a public phone to contact his young wife and expressed his intention to buy the product, and she immediately rushed over.
The concubine was dressed quite simply, and those who didn't know her might have thought she was a country girl. But when she raised her head, she was clearly a seductive vixen in exquisite attire.
This should be a kind of makeup.
There was a young man beside her, and the two behaved very intimately. He was her mistress.
When they came, the two of them were still hiding themselves, as if they were afraid of being seen.
It seemed that Yu Dewang had offended many people when he was alive. Now, as his companion, she would inevitably be involved in it and might even be caught to vent her anger.
The wealth that was swallowed up was a huge fortune, and many people were eyeing it.
Zhang Yaoyang could tell at a glance that the two were very eager to sell the house. They didn't care who would buy it. They just wanted to get the money, stay away from the trouble, and live a happy life.
Unfortunately, people nowadays do not have the awareness of investing in buying houses, and not everyone can come up with 5 yuan, so it is not easy to sell a house.
After the two men opened the door, as expected, all the valuable antique furniture were taken away. I guess they had been exchanged for money by the two men.
"Sir, as you can see, this house is no different from a new one. You just need to add some furniture and you can move in smoothly. 5 yuan is already very cheap. If you like it, let's go through the formalities quickly."
The concubine was pushing him hard, and the more urgent it was, the more Zhang Yaoyang started to nitpick and find fault, trying to delay time so as to lower the price.
Anyway, the other party is asking for help now, so it won't be a bad thing if we can spend less money on this house.
"Lady, I heard that your house is not very auspicious. It is a bit conflicting and might bring bad luck. After I buy it, I will have to find a Taoist priest or a monk to perform some rituals here."
"These are all extra expenses. So your price is really a bit high, please lower it a bit!"
The concubine's face changed immediately when she heard this. She thought she could get away with it, but she was exposed. However, she still said firmly: "If you can buy it, buy it. If you can't buy it, forget it. Why bargain here?"
"This is the value of my house. I won't pay a penny less. You can decide for yourself."
Zhang Yaoyang smiled, took out 40,000 yuan and shook it.
"Don't be angry, big sister. I will definitely buy this house. However, I only brought 40,000 yuan. If you agree, we can draft a sales contract now. If not, there is nothing to say. I can buy from the next house. Anyway, there are more houses listed for sale on this street."
What Zhang Yaoyang said was indeed correct. There were more than a hundred courtyard houses in Yujia Hutong. Some of them were built by families with declining population and financial difficulties who could not afford to live in such big houses and wanted to sell them to earn some money to live on.
Some yearn for life abroad and move their families. In their eyes, the houses in China are shabby and old, and there is nothing to be nostalgic about. So they clean up everything so that they can leave without any worries.
……
This concubine's sign has been on the market for several days. Although many people have come to inquire about it, there are really few who can afford to buy it, let alone buy an unlucky house.
So when she saw that Zhang Yaoyang had already expressed his intention to go to the next store to take a look, she could no longer hold it in and spoke up on the spot.
"Forty-five thousand, you can't bargain so hard. You're going to kill me by cutting the price by ten thousand at once!"
"Sister, I don't want to do this either, but I'm short of money. This is all I have. I'm sorry I can't accept this price. You should wait for the next buyer."
Zhang Yaoyang pretended to leave.
The young pretty boy was already extremely impatient and tugged at his concubine's sleeve and started muttering.
"Forty thousand is forty thousand. In this extraordinary period, it's already great to be able to make so much. Why are you being so picky? Don't lose your life for ten thousand dollars."
Now, the concubine was frightened by what he said and quickly grabbed Zhang Yaoyang.
"Don't go, young comrade. I'll listen to you. Forty thousand is fine. I've brought the property deeds with me. Let's just leave it at that."
Zhang Yaoyang showed a satisfied smile on his lips, and then went to a special house buying and selling place with the two of them, and quickly completed all the procedures.
The two of them left happily with the money, and Zhang Yaoyang also left happily with the house deed.
The hard work of a truck can be exchanged for two courtyard houses, which is a very worthwhile investment.
So he went around Yujia Hutong and bought all the houses he could find near Yu Fengjiao's house.
A total of four houses and four property deeds cost him nearly 20 yuan.
To Zhang Yaoyang now, these are nothing but trivial matters and he doesn't find them strange at all.
As a result, he naturally stayed in Kyoto for a few more days, after all, it takes time to handle the formalities.
After thinking about it, he realized that he had been away from home for too long and the people in the village had a hard time getting water. He couldn't just sit back and watch.
The last stop was Zhang Mingtang’s home in Kyoto.
It is also in an alley, a little far from Yujia Hutong. It's just that the city is too big and the alleys are built in a complex manner. If outsiders don't have a guide, they are likely to get lost in it.
The door of the Zhang family's yard was wide open at this time. No one knew what was going on inside the yard, but people were coming and going, and it looked very lively.
At this moment, a young man came out and was caught by Zhang Yaoyang. After feeding him a good cigarette, he told the whole story without hiding anything.
It turned out that there was some happy event happening in this family. It was said that they had been promoted and got rich. They were purchasing a large amount of food and had people prepare it to host a banquet for guests in the evening.
He asked curiously where the eldest son of the family, Zhang Mingtang, had gone, and said that he knew him and wanted to find him to reminisce about the past.
The young man sneered contemptuously.
"Heh... He was my cousin, but he's not anymore. He made a mistake and is no longer a member of the Zhang family. God knows where he went."
"You, the Zhang family...are you all so cruel to your own family members?"
