Chapter 385: How to own five buildings

The auction for the murder house came to an end.

Just as Yuan Guang and Shi Qian were hanging their heads, they heard an incredible number: "The starting bid for this suite is $300,000."

The two men jerked their heads up to look at the auction table, and Bai Liu, who heard the price, and the group also looked over with interest.

The auctioneer looked down and flipped through the catalog while emotionlessly reading the introduction, "--This is a 2.45 square meter customized house on the 18th floor, located on the edge of Sunshine City suburb, one of the supporting facilities in Area E, the physical area after sharing the equalized area is about 2 square meters, no toilet Kitchen, No water, electricity, gas grid, No hospital supermarket transportation stop nearby for one person."

"The last householder died suddenly at his job, so the foreclosure sale was repossessed."

The auctioneer looked up, his tone indifferent: "Starting at 300,000--"

Yuan Guang nervously held up his $310,000 sign, looking around to see if there was anyone else to compete with him, but surprisingly, there were very few people holding up their sign for such a cheap house, a far cry from the scenes of the previous fights over the house, and even when some people did hold up their sign, there was a clear look of fear and hesitation on their faces:

"Thirty-five thousand."

"306,000 ......"

"Thirty ...... sorry I'm not shooting, count me out for not yelling, sorry."

Yuan Guang and Shi Qian looked at each other strangely and discussed in whispers after determining that there was a high probability that they would be able to auction off the house:

"Why isn't anyone photographing this set? It's cheap, only three hundred thousand dollars."

"It's too small, there's no plumbing or electricity, is that really why it's uninhabitable?"

"No way, there was a house in the B district that was just a little bigger than this one, 3 square meters, basement, and no electricity, and the starting price was four hundred and seventy thousand dollars and it was snatched up like crazy."

"Is the lot too bad?"

"They're all coming to shoot the murder house, I don't feel like they care about the lot ......"

The more Shi Qian looks at it, the more it feels wrong: "I feel like they're afraid of the house."

Yuan Guang gets more and more puzzled: "These guys are all about filming murderous houses eh, what other houses can scare them?"

Yuan Guang and Shi Qian tried to ask the people around them what was wrong with the house, but they were all too tight-lipped to talk about it, except for the man who had talked to them before, who kindly advised them, "Don't shoot, this house is really going to kill people."

"The house here, the one with the undead living in it?" Shi Qian asked, confused from the bottom of her heart.

The man waved his hand, looked around, and whispered close to Shi Qian's ear, "People don't necessarily die when they live in a murderous house, but people will definitely die when they live in this house, so don't shoot it!"

But if you don't shoot ......

Yuan Guang hesitated for a moment, then they had not photographed anything today, and just as these two were considering it, a low male voice came from behind them:

"Three hundred and twenty thousand."

Yuan Guang and Shi Qian subconsciously turned their heads over, and when they saw that the person holding up the sign was the tall Tang Er playing, they immediately sucked in a breath of cold air, instantly shrinking their heads and turning around to fly into the crowd, doubling up with sunscreen cloths to cover themselves, not daring to utter a single breath.

"Still shooting Shi Qian?" Yuan Guang asked in a low voice.

"Shoot my ass! Bai Liu their team is there, we will definitely be seen if we shoot!" Shi Qian depressingly said, "This house can only be given to them first."

As if he was afraid Tang Er would fight back, the auctioneer slammed his hammer down on the deal: "Will the gentleman please come up and claim this home valued at $320,000!"

Tang Er hit a tense look and walked up, coldly swiped that recruiter's ID card to pay the three hundred and twenty thousand, and then quickly took away the real estate license, and Bai Liu and his group left, from the back, there is a vague sense of hasty panic and unnatural first time thieves.

Yuan Guang, who was hidden in the crowd, looked at Shi Qian as if in sympathy, and asked quietly, "Where do you think they got the money?"

"If I'm not mistaken ......" Shi Qian Before she could finish her sentence, there was already a scream from the auctioneer's side as he pointed in the direction Tang Er had hit leave, "Patrol! Quickly catch the person who just swiped his card! He was robbing someone else's card to swipe it!"

Yuan Guang and Shi Qian: "......"

Ah, sure enough.

"It's a good thing we forced those recruiters to write checks directly ......" Yuan Guang patted his chest afterward, "It was a close call or we would have been caught too."

Shi Qian looked in the direction Bai Liu left and slowly frowned, "That three hundred and twenty thousand dollar house in Area E, what's going on?"

Zone E.

Bai Liu They made a couple of detours and simply shook off the patrol that was following them, heading straight for the location listed on the real estate license for the E block.

"......18 Street 444 Road ......" Mu Sicheng spat as he read the location on the top of the real estate license, "This road number is also too unlucky, right? No wonder it's so cheap."

Liu Jiayi glanced at Mu Sicheng: "I don't think such things as auspicious or unlucky road numbers will affect Sunshine City's house prices."

"The people here shouldn't care about such things anymore." Tang Er struck a solemn look around, "They should be willing to live anywhere as long as they can survive."

Mu Ke frowned at the question, "And yet they'd rather live in a murder house than here, and there weren't more than five people who'd just raised their cards on such a cheap house, why?"

Bai Liu was nonchalant: "We'll see when we get there."

Compared to the city center made of reinforced concrete, the location of District E is remote and on the outskirts of the city, with potholes in the pavement, covered with mud and dirt after the rain, and the recreational facilities in the district, such as strollers and slides, are rusty and collapsed, and no one maintains them as well as the pavement.

Although the buildings in the neighborhood is also a high-rise, but hit the eye to see the walls are very old, paint, paste putty and tiles have different degrees of peeling, and some are also crawling with green vine plants, it is obvious that all are a little bit of years of the old house.

An air of old age and decay pervades the entire E.

Most of the people who live in these old houses are not young, from the windows of the houses probed out to dry clothes are some old grandpas and old ladies, full of white hair, the old posture is obvious, the face has the obvious face of the disease, most of the drying clothes are washed to the faded white uniforms, uniforms are more or less a few patches on the clothes.

The buildings were built in the same way, and there were no landmarks, even the style of each house and the clothes drying on the balcony were similar, and soon Mu Sicheng was confused: "Why does this place look the same everywhere, and how do we get to Route 444?"

"Ask for directions." Tang Er hit looked around with the real estate license, he saw a pair of elderly people slowly walking down the stroller holding each other, "Hello, how do I get to 444 E?"

Hearing Tang Er Ta's voice asking for directions, the pair of old men looked up at Tang Er Ta, and when they saw the faces of the two old men clearly, Tang Er Ta's gaze paused for a moment.

These two old people, a man and a woman, had cloudy, dead eyes, from the edge of their mouths to the bridge of their softly collapsed noses were crawling with age spots as dense as small worms, and between their breaths they brought out a kind of stench of rotting organs, and a kind of yellowish-green and reddish blood pus was flowing from their ears and nasal passages, and drop by drop it flowed down to the ground and was absorbed by the land into oblivion.

These two people old man aging has reached the extreme of the adjective [old] that normal people can imagine, and even make people feel that they are like ...... two corpses that can move.

"You are on ......" Tang Er hit glanced at the stroller.

The old grandpa replied shakily, "I'm sick and I was just working out with my wife."

"Old people should rest when they are sick." Tang Er hit the upper hand to steadily hold the two, frowning as he asked, "Where are your children?"

The grandmother next to her shook her head, "You can't rest, we have to go to work."

"Going to work?!" Mu Sicheng, helping to hold the grandmother, asked incredulously, "Granny, at your age, you still have to go to work?"

The grandmother gave Mu Sicheng a strange look, "Yes, if you don't work, you don't get paid."

The old man next to him nodded quite approvingly, "We both still have to pay the mortgage."

For a moment, everyone was silent, except for Bai Liu, who slowly stepped forward to take over, taking the old man from Tang Er's hand: "How many years did you take out a loan?"

The old man shook his hand and compared it to a seven: "My wife and I took out a seventy-year loan together, I started working when I was fifteen, and now I have ten years left to pay off the loan."

"You have to get in good shape to keep working and keep paying the mortgage." The old man patted Bai Liu's hand as if he were educating a young man, "Don't avoid work just because you're sick, it's not right, look, I've been working well for sixty years and I'll finally have my own house soon."

The old granny seemed to sigh like, "It's a pity that there's nothing left over here in Area E now, in the early years when Area E was full of young people, it was also as prosperous as Area A with high house prices, but it's a pity that only us old things live here now."

"We're getting older, we don't have as much energy as we did when we were younger when we could work seven or eight jobs a day, we can't make much money, and we can't afford to keep high-spending places like hospitals and schools open, they all moved away a few years ago, and in the last few years there haven't even been a few restaurants left in the neighborhood." Old Grandpa shook his head.

"Hospitals schools and such still move away?" Mu Sicheng was surprised, "You can't rent here, they should have bought the facade for a hospital school or something like that, right? How can they move?"

The old man nodded: "can not be run of course to move away, they these do hospital school, although the charges are very high, but we are not unable to understand, to buy a front to do business in the mortgage is very high very high, hospital school people also live a very bitter, earn fifty dollars, there are forty-eight dollars have to be used to pay the mortgage."

"The restaurant is also, a dish of seventy dollars, sixty-five dollars have to be used to pay the mortgage, business is difficult to do, difficult to do yo." The grandmother shook her head and agreed, "Everyone is just earning a little bit of hard money, really can't do it and can't pay the mortgage, so they can only die, and after they die, the property will be repossessed, isn't that moving away?"

Mu Sicheng opened his mouth to say something, but in the end nothing came out.

Soon the old man perked up again, "But although the amenities in Area E aren't very good right now, there's still one thing that's great about the houses in Area E."

The grandmother's face also brought out a celebratory smile, "Luckily we bought it early, or else we'd be nibbling on the little ones by now."

The old man also solemnly nodded his head, rather spitefully commented, angry both sides of the beard are trembling: "Yes, now this batch of young people, do not do anything, but also want to live well, and want a good house, do not fight not Bo, just know to nibble on the next generation, it is really disgraceful!"

"What nibbling little?" Mu Sicheng listened a little dazed, "What next generation?"

The old man glanced at this young man who didn't know anything and explained good-naturedly, "It's the number of years of ownership."

"The houses in E were bought early and given a hundred years of ownership, which means you can live in this house for almost a hundred years, so we were able to take out a loan for seventy years, but now the realtors don't want to give that long of ownership anymore."

"Yes." Granny nodded, "I seem to remember that there is only a 20-year ownership period, and after 20 years the real estate developer will repossess it, so the loan has to be repaid within twenty years, which spreads out to a high monthly mortgage payment, and many young people can't afford to pay it off at all without nibbling on the small ones."

Tang Er next to him frowned inquiringly, "What's a nibble?"

He had only heard of nibbling on the old not the young.

The old man looked left and right at this group of young people who knew nothing, hesitated for a moment, but still spoke, "It's about advancing the future and letting your future children help you pay back the loan, a new repayment model researched by the five major developers."

"If you guys are interested, there's a new development opening today in District C, so you can ask there."

New development in C.

The opulent property sales center landed three days ago, the people who went to and fro to inquire about it were countless, and now that it was finally opened, a group of people were just like the hungry man who had been starving for more than ten days and smelled the taste of a big meal, and swarmed madly into its interior.

On either side of the doorway stood menacing patrols armed with firearms, high-voltage batons and steel forks to maintain order.

Yuan Guang and Shi Qian were completely swept up by the crowds, and for a few seconds after they entered, they were confused, and it was only after a while that they regained their senses.

The number of people who came to the new development was too many, far beyond Yuan Guang and Shi Qian's expectation, they had only heard the news and were prepared to come over to have a look, after all, the price of the new development was really too horrible, it was not something they could afford with only 60 million dollars in their pockets.

But ...... compared to auctioning off murderous houses one by one, and not necessarily all of the houses in each building, buying new properties should be the most stable and accurate way to get through this game.

Originally, Yuan Guang and Shi Qian thought that not many people would come to see such an expensive new property because they simply couldn't afford it, but when they arrived, a long line of people had already formed in front of the sales center, which hadn't even opened yet.

The queue was a mixed bag, with Yuan Guang and Shi Qian seeing well-dressed, first-class citizens of the upper echelons of society, as well as yellowish, shaky house slaves and some poorly-clothed temporary residents with CV tags on their chests.

This extremely mixed demographic confuses Yuan Guang even more.

Why would a first class citizen buy a house and then buy another one? Housing slaves are not paying off the loan, why come to the new building, can afford it? Temporary residents simply do not have the ability to repay the loan ah, even the down payment can not come up with, why come to see?

By the time they were swept up in the crowd, before they could regain their senses, an ebullient salesman helped them to their feet and asked politely with a big smile, "Hello, are you here to buy a house?"

Yuan Guang was almost flattered when he was helped up, "Yes, yes."

The real estate related NPCs here are all arrogant and condescending, one look at your wearing clothes can't afford to pay the cost of buying a house, they can't wait to take their noses and look at people, waving their hands impatiently like catching flies to drive you away, Yuan Guang also thought that the sales NPCs who came to the sales office would be more watchful of the dishes, and I didn't expect to have such a good attitude.

"Today's property market hasn't opened yet, do you want to check out the lot and location first? I am Xiao Dong, the sales representative of Area C, No. 1534, you can ask me anything." Xiao Dong's smile was like a flower, her hands moved quickly to help Shi Qian and Yuan Guang sit down, "May I ask if you have any favorite drinks or tea?"

Yuan Guang said warily, "Coke, yes?"

Shi Qian : "Chrysanthemum tea will be fine, thank you."

Xiao Dong nodded with a smile and held the mike on his ear, "Please prepare a cup of cola and a cup of chrysanthemum tea for me, yes, I'll go and fetch it for you, please wait."

Watching Xiao Dong's back, Shi Qian and Yuan Guang took a quick look around and realized that all the salesmen were very enthusiastic about homeowners, slaves, and temporary residents, as if they were all potential customers and everyone could afford to buy a house.

Shi Qian calmly said, "Being so enthusiastic, there must be a demon when things go wrong, let's ask in detail later."

Yuan Guang nodded heavily.

Xiao Dong soon came over with a tray, she handed Shi Qian and Yuan Guang the cola and chrysanthemum tea on the tray respectively, and turned over the map of the property to introduce to them, "What kind of room do you all want to see this time?"

"We have small homes over here, 12-16 sq ft, which are perfect for living with a family, and removing the equalized area, it still comes down to 11 sq ft or more, which is very much an option for a family of three."

"Of course if there is a need to raise more children, a flat like 20-25 sq ft is also highly recommended, removing the equalized area still leaves 20+ sq ft, which is perfectly suitable for three to four siblings."

"For example, the floor plan of this set, when doing the decoration can be designed to nest two folding beds and an invisible bed, and this large bookcase blocked in front of the parents and children's beds, you can only see each other's feet can not see each other's head, each other is private."

Xiao Dong said this with a slightly promising smile, "And it won't interfere with your conjugal life."

Yuan Guang and Shi Qian looked sluggishly at the small house of more than 20, parents and children in the middle of only hard to stuff down a large bookcase, can see the opposite foot, this situation still have to carry on the conjugal life ......

And Yuan Guang and Shi Qian next to a man and a woman are also looking at the floor plan, listening to this also quite agreeable nodded: "Yes, so there is more privacy, our previous set is 12 square feet, three children can only sit on the floor to watch us get into the quilt, my wife and I can not stand it a little bit."

Shi Qian, who was drinking water next to her, almost spat out a mouthful of water at that.

Brother, with three kids watching you and you can still screw your wife, is there some kind of serious illness?

It was the salesman's eyes that lit up when he heard, "Your family has three children?"

The man nodded slightly reservedly, "Yes, we came over here this time also because of the child ......"

The sale smiled more affably, "Since there are three children, you may consider this large 28 square feet home ......"

The two parties exchanged words as they moved farther and farther away, and Shi Qian looked around the room in slight confusion as she finally realized what was wrong--

--Most of the people who come to buy a house are a man and a woman, many with several children, few with one or two children, and most of the sales presentations of the type of house focus on being able to live with children.

Slightly ...... strange.

Here in Sunshine City, Shi Qian asks herself, she definitely does not want to get married and have children, but the willingness of people here to have children is quite high, which can be seen from the most popular house types - most people come up and ask for a house type that is about 25 square feet and can accommodate three children.

Xiao Dong introduced all the house types, her eyes swept back and forth between Yuan Guang and Shi Qian: "Are you two not yet planning to get married and have children?"

Yuan Guang and Shi Qian were both stunned, they had been colleagues for many years, and in reality, because they were too much of a social animal and had encountered the rotten building and the game, they had long since looked away to the point that the four great emptinesses were gone, and they didn't have that kind of worldly desires for the opposite sex.

As close as they were, their relationship soured and they jumped from friends to family because they had never considered it and were still a bit bewildered by the steepness of the question.

Yuan Guang was just about to say no, but was stopped by Shi Qian's quick eye and hand covering her mouth, she had already realized that the problem was the child, so she lifted her eyes squarely to the sales and put on a shy look, "...... Yes, I am going to give him three children. "

Yuan Guang, who had finished an entire can of Coke next to him, opened his eyes wide and let out a long belch in horror.

Xiao Dong, a newcomer to the market, said, "Since you two are planning to have a child, I would like to introduce to you a brand new loan service that we, Sunshine City Real Estate, have launched in order to facilitate the purchase of a home - Sunshine Nursery Loan."

Shi Qian withdraws her hand and stares after her, "What kind of loan is this?"

"Many people living within the Sunshine City can not afford to earn a down payment for a suite for the rest of their lives, such as this 25 square feet of household, according to the current average price of 320,000 square feet, but also eight million dollars, the Sunshine Nursery loan requires a minimum of fifty percent down payment, that is, four million dollars, the balance of the money to be repaid twenty years to be repaid, not counting the interest rate in the case of the monthly repayment of sixteen thousand dollars, the majority of the family can afford it, and you will be able to buy a house."

Shi Qian couldn't help but retort, "How can a loan not have interest?"

Xiao Dong laughed a little, "The Sunshine Seedling Loan implemented under our banner is interest-free yet two."

Yuan Guang shakes his head, "Not without interest, four million dollars is too much of a down payment, not many people can afford it?"

"That's the subtlety of Sunshine Loans." The enthusiastic smile on Xiao Dong's face deepened, "Sunshine Nursery Loans offers to accept children for pre-mortgage loans."

Yuan Guang didn't respond for a moment, "What mortgage?"

"Child." Xiao Dong repeats it again word for word, she takes out a contract and introduces it with a smile, "It's like this, assuming that you can only pay a million dollars for the down payment, then for the remaining three million dollars you can let your child sign a labor contract with our real estate company, so that he can use his labor to mortgage it in the future, for example, for the three children, each of them will only need to mortgage a million dollars of their salary. "

Yuan Guang looks down at the labor contract Xiao Dong hands him:

[...... Party A promises that when its offspring has reached the age of sixteen and has the ability to work, it will enter Party B's company to work for twelve hours a day, and Party B promises to give a monthly salary of four thousand five hundred (the average level of salary), and at the same time monthly deductions of eighty percent of Party A's offspring to repay the mortgage until Party B's offspring has finished repaying Party A's mortgaged mortgage debt. Until Party A's offspring have paid off Party A's mortgage debt.

Yuan Guang's spine shivered as he slowly raised his head, his mind dizzy for a moment: "Eighty percent of his salary is deducted to pay off the loan, and he has to work twelve hours a day without a break, so how can this child live?"

"Then this is not a problem you worry about." Xiao Dong smiled lightly and said, "Children and grandchildren are blessed by their children and grandchildren, do you, as a parent, not give birth to him just so that he can raise a house for you and let you enjoy your own happiness?"

"Besides, if you're worried about your child living a tiring life, he himself can have children to enjoy in the future."
