72: 72 not making money when you have the chance is foolish
As soon as the other party heard what the landlady said, his face changed, “Xie Xiaohong, are you crazy?
I was planning to offer 10,000 for this house, and you go and sell it for just 8,500.”
Upon hearing 8,500, the woman’s husband also lost his composure and questioned the male landlord, “Old Yuan, why didn’t you say earlier that you wanted to sell the house?
Why sell it so cheaply at 8,500?
Look, if the other party hasn’t paid yet, and if they haven’t, we will add 500, and you can sell it to us for 9,000.
Selling it for 8,500, I offer 9,000, that’s quite loyal of me.
He Ximei was somewhat dumbfounded.
They had not agreed on the house yet, so why didn’t the landlord want to sell?
Xiaofeng, listening to the landlady, curled her lips slightly.
It seemed like these two families had some longstanding grievances, which is why the landlady directly cut the price for her own benefit, rather than selling it to the other party.
“Xiaofeng.” He Ximei quietly tugged at Xiaofeng’s clothes and whispered, “Xiaofeng, could these two landlords be scammers?”
They might have deliberately brought people to view the house, then taken the opportunity to raise the price and sell it to them.
Xiaofeng and I had clearly not agreed on the house, yet the other party directly said they had already sold it to us, forcing me to be alert.
“It’s okay, let’s just watch.”
“One should be honest, right?
You can’t just stop being honest because we two no longer work here.
This girl just said she wanted our house, I have already agreed and we even agreed on a price.”
What that means is, unless this girl herself doesn’t want the house anymore, there’s nothing I can do.
The other quickly turned his gaze to He Ximei, “Sister, I am colleagues with these two landlords.
I’ve been here a few times before and really place.
I’ll add a thousand yuan, and you directly transfer the house to me.”
The house is still quite new.
If not for Old Yuan urgently wanting to sell and leave, it could have fetched 11,000 or 12,000.
Selling it for 8,500 was really something for Old Yuan and his wife.
Although He Ximei usually has plenty of ideas, she truly has none at critical moments.
Su Xiaofeng pursed her lips and smiled, “Auntie, I am really sorry, but we also house a lot.”
The other gritted his teeth, “Add another 500, 10,000.”
Simply turning it around could earn them 1,500, a great deal indeed.
Still, Su Xiaofeng shook her head.
The other woman’s face changed, “Turning it around to make 1,500, anyone who wouldn’t take the money is a fool.”
Su Xiaofeng just smiled, “Auntie, you know the market in town better than I.
If I took your 10,000 and then had to spend more than that to buy another house, I really wouldn’t be a fool.”
Whether the landlord would sell it to her for 8,500 was still unknown, but since the landlord didn’t want to sell to the other party, cooperating a bit wouldn’t hurt.
“Forget it.” The man pulled the woman away, “This house isn’t that great, and we don’t absolutely have to buy it.”
“Exactly.” The woman scoffed coldly, “Some people really think they can soar high after moving from here.
I hear life in the big city is not that easy.
People like you, who fly out from small cities, can only serve others tea and water.”
“Some people just want to serve tea and water for others, but even that requires an opportunity,” the landlady retorted unconcernedly.
“Whatever my husband is, he wouldn’t go snitching to the boss like some woman.”
If not for someone constantly snitching to the boss, her husband, with his skills, would have been promoted and transferred long ago.
Overhearing the landlady’s words, the man’s face flashed unnaturally and he pulled the woman away, “Forget it, let’s not buy it.
There are plenty of houses in the city, why obsess over this one?”
“You’re just a coward!
Can’t you see that they are obviously bullying us?” the woman, being pulled away, was hardly convinced.
