I'll Take It

Su Yang followed Pan Ning to support Meng Qianyu together. As a result, his speed became very slow.

After they walked for a while, he thought for a moment and said, "Pan, you support Qianyu first. I'll go and have a look myself. It'll be faster this way."

"Okay, go ahead. We'll walk around by ourselves."

"Alright. Don't go too far. Just stroll around the lake."

"Got it. Hurry up then."

"Okay." Su Yang smiled and turned away.

He quickened his pace and walked towards the area with more houses ahead.

It was around 1:30 p.m. at this time. Su Yang passed by several houses in a row, and the yards in front of them were all empty.

"Probably taking a lunch break. Well, anyway, I didn't expect to get a result today. Let's keep walking and see."

He said and continued walking forward.

As he walked, he saw a middle - aged man watering the flowers in a relatively large yard more than ten meters away.

Su Yang smiled and murmured to himself, "Finally, I've seen someone."

He quickened his steps and walked towards that house.

When he arrived outside the yard, Su Yang looked at the man who was bending over to water the flowers and said with a smile, "Brother, watering the flowers?"

"Hmm? Who are you?" The man looked up at Su Yang and asked.

"Oh, I'm here for a visit. I saw that the scenery in your village is really nice, so I'm just walking around."

As Su Yang said, he took out a pack of 1916 cigarettes and offered one to the man in the yard.

Seeing this, the man took the cigarette with a big smile and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

"Judging from your accent, you're not from Haicheng, are you?"

Su Yang smiled and said, "I'm from Yangcheng, but I live in Haicheng."

"Oh, no wonder. I thought it sounded a bit different. There aren't many people here usually. It's Thursday today, and everyone is at work. You should come on weekends. It's more lively when there are more people on weekends."

"Really? Actually, I'm just taking a walk. By the way, how can I address you, brother?"

"You can just call me Brother Wang. Are you alone? Come in and have a cup of tea." Brother Wang, the man, walked warmly to the yard gate, opened it, and invited Su Yang in.

Su Yang wasn't polite either. He nodded and smiled, "Thank you, Brother Wang."

"Why be so polite? Come in and sit down quickly." Brother Wang said as he pulled over a small wooden chair for Su Yang to sit on.

Then Brother Wang turned around and walked into the house, and came out with a cup of freshly brewed tea.

"Here, handsome guy, have a cup of tea. This is just brewed by me."

"Thank you." Su Yang reached out and took the cup.

The two sat in the yard and chatted.

After taking a few puffs of the cigarette, Su Yang asked, "Brother Wang, the scenery here is really beautiful. By the way, do you know if there's anyone who wants to sell their house? If so, I'm going to buy one here."

"Oh? You want to buy a house here?"

"Yes, I just don't know if anyone is selling here."

As Su Yang said, he took a sip of the tea.

Brother Wang let out a hearty laugh, "Well, aren't you just in luck? I'm just trying to sell mine. Hahaha."

"What? You're selling, Brother Wang?"

"Yes. I've listed it online for almost half a month, but not a single person has even browsed it."

Su Yang thought to himself, 'Damn? Is this for real? It's like someone is offering a pillow just when I want to sleep.'

"Brother Wang, the houses in your village should all be self - built, right?"

Brother Wang exhaled a puff of smoke and nodded, "Yes. To put it bluntly, this is just the countryside. It's just that the environment is better than most places. In these areas, every household basically builds their own house. But are you really here to look at houses?"

Su Yang nodded, "Yes. Actually, I came here today just to visit and see if there's anyone selling their house. I didn't expect that the first person I meet just happens to be you who's selling."

"Hahaha." Brother Wang looked up and laughed, then said, "That means we're destined. First, not to mention other things, what's your first impression of my place?"

Hearing this, Su Yang turned his head and looked around. Brother Wang's house was beautifully built, a three - story small western - style building with a big yard.

There was also a small piece of open space behind the house, and then a not - very - high mountain forest. Right in front of the house was the rippling Lianwu Lake. It could be said to have both mountains and water, and the location was excellent.

After looking around, Su Yang smiled and said, "It's very beautiful."

"Right?"

"But why do you want to sell such a nice place?"

Brother Wang took another puff of the cigarette and said, "Actually, I'm not from Haicheng either. My hometown is in Qingxi. I've lived here for about ten years. I want to go out and have a look."

He paused for a second and then continued, "My biggest dream in this life is to travel around the world. I'll just be straight with you. I'm selling the house because I don't have enough money. Otherwise, I wouldn't sell it."

Su Yang asked, "So you mean you want to sell this house to raise some money and then go traveling?"

"Yes. Of course, this house can't be sold for much in this place. But I also have some savings of my own. I think the money from selling the house plus my savings will be about enough. Then I'll go out and travel around the world to fulfill my dream."

Su Yang thought for two seconds and said, "Your dream is quite good. But where will you live after you finish traveling?"

"Back in my hometown. I still have a house in Qingxi."

"Oh, that's okay. I thought you'd give up your home just for traveling around the world."

"Hahaha, how could that be? I'll definitely sell it on the premise of having a guarantee. And I've thought this through for a long time. I'm just waiting for the right person."

As Brother Wang said, he looked at Su Yang and smiled silently.

Su Yang took out his cigarettes again and was about to offer one. Seeing this, Brother Wang quickly took out his own cigarettes and offered one to Su Yang.

"Then let's not beat around the bush. Brother Wang, what's the price of your house?"

"The housing price here isn't high. After all, it's far from the urban area. The average price is around 4,000 yuan per square meter. The total area of my house and the yard is 385 square meters. If you really want to buy it, I'll sell it to you for 1.4 million yuan."

Su Yang took out his phone and calculated. If calculated at 4,000 yuan per square meter, the total price would be 1.54 million yuan.

Now that Brother Wang was so straightforward to sell it to him for 1.4 million, he didn't know if he was making a profit or a loss.

After all, this place wasn't like the city where the prices were clearly marked. It was not easy to check, and he could only make a rough estimate. He guessed that he would probably be taken advantage of to some extent.

But there were only more than forty days left for the task, and Su Yang didn't have so much time to understand the market and calculate carefully.

Moreover, he was a person with hundreds of millions of assets now, and he didn't care about this little money.

"Okay, I'll take it."

Su Yang closed his phone, turned to look at Brother Wang, and said calmly.

"Ah? You... agreed so readily?"

"Yes, I really want it."

"Hey, you young man. I just made an offer casually, and you didn't even ask. I've never met such a straightforward person like you. Well, since you sincerely want to buy it, I'll sell it to you for 1.38 million. I won't take advantage of you."

Su Yang took a puff of the cigarette and smiled, "You're even lowering the price on your own initiative?"

"Hey, you. When I said around 4,000, you really thought it was 4,000. Actually, the current market price here is only around 3,700 or 3,800. The fluctuation isn't big. I'm really not good at doing business. I'm not heartless enough. Otherwise, I would have just asked for 1.5 million."

Su Yang grinned and said, "Then let's just keep it at 1.4 million. You don't need to lower the price for me."

"Really?"

"Really? Haha," Su Yang said, smiling at Brother Wang, who was standing in front of him looking stunned.

Brother Wang looked like an honest man at first glance. He was not very tall, about 165 cm. He had a crew cut, a square face, and ordinary features, looking very upright.

Moreover, from their brief interaction, Su Yang's first impression of him was quite good. When Su Yang hadn't even mentioned buying a house, Brother Wang invited him in for tea.

A fluctuation of tens of thousands of yuan didn't matter to Su Yang at all. Maybe the system would reward him 800,000 yuan later.

Su Yang stood up and said with a smile, "Is there a yard behind this house?"

"Yes, there's a small yard, and it's included in the total area."

Su Yang nodded and asked, "If I buy it now, when will you move out?"

"As soon as you pay the money, I'll pack my luggage and leave right away! I'm even more eager than you! Haha," Brother Wang stood up excitedly and replied.

Su Yang turned around and looked around the house again, then said, "Okay, I'll bring someone from the bank over in the next couple of days. We'll sign the purchase contract, and I'll pay you in full."

"Pay in full? Great! I knew you were a rich guy from the start," Brother Wang said.

"Haha, then it's settled. I'm going to tear this house down and rebuild it after I buy it."

"As long as you pay the money, you can do whatever you want with it. It doesn't matter to me," Brother Wang said, scratching his head and laughing heartily.
