Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

Chapter 178 Buying a Villa

The townhouse area in Qifu New Village is not particularly expensive after 20 years, with an average price of about 30,000 yuan. It cannot be compared with the villa area in Zhongcun Wanbo next door, which costs more than 60,000 or 70,000 yuan, but it is cheaper now and large enough.

Fifty thousand yuan in cash + two thousand yuan in monthly payments can buy a two-and-a-half-story villa with a total area of ​​192 square meters. This deal is absolutely worth it. Kang Qirui asked, "Second brother, how much did you say Kou Shuiwei paid for the down payment?"

"One hundred thousand. I think that poor guy must have no money to study abroad, so he sold it at a huge price." Er Lao guessed that his father had always been against buying a house, "Maybe it was a trap, I don't believe that a really good house would be sold at half the price."

Lao Dou was the kind of person who only wanted to save money in the bank and thought buying a house was a waste of money. Er Lao didn't want to consult his opinion, but asked Kang Qirui: "What do you think?"

"What can I do? Why don't we just ask Kou Shuiwei?" Kang Qirui said with a smile, "How about we treat him to a meal and get him drunk so he can tell the truth?"

"Okay, I think it's a good idea. Let's do it. I'll make an appointment with him tomorrow at noon." Er Lao nodded and picked up the phone to call Kou Shuiwei to invite him for a drink tomorrow night and ask him about his villa. Kou Shuiwei was in a hurry to put the house on the market, so he agreed.

In the end, only the second brother A Zu and Kang Qi Rui had dinner with Kou Shui Wei. Although it was the weekend, the eldest brother had to take care of the children A Yao and Xing Zi, so it was not very suitable for them to drink. After they had enough food and drink, they started to talk about the main topic. "Don't think about it. You will live in the villa soon. How magnificent it is." Kou Shui Wei tried his best to promote his villa.

"Brother Wei, is there any problem with your house? Selling it to us at a 50% discount is so cheap?" Kang Qirui asked out everyone's concerns.

Kou Shuiwei smiled and sighed, "You all know that I am going to study abroad, so why do I need that house? To be honest, I don't want to sell it yet. The scenery there is picturesque and the transportation is convenient."

Kang Qirui stretched out his hand to interrupt him. He knew the situation there very well and didn't want to listen to the bragging of Kou Shuiwei. He smiled and said, "Okay, okay, Brother Wei, stop bragging. I will give you the same number even if you brag again." Kang Qirui stretched out three fingers.

Kou Shuiwei thought about it and held up four fingers, "How about this number?" Kang Qirui and Er Lao looked at each other and shook their heads. Er Lao refused and said, "Fatty brother, we have to lower the price when selling pork."

"Let me be fair." A-Zu and Koushuiwei grew up together and knew Koushuiwei very well. He deliberately said, "My younger brother has already offered the most price, and your room will only be home to mice if no one lives in it. If you don't sell it, second brother A-Rui, let's go." The three Kang brothers stood up and pretended to leave.

"Okay, okay, I'll sell it for half price, which is a bargain for you." Kou Shuiwei was controlled by A Zu, "But can you pay a deposit first?"

The second brother sneered and said, "Deposit? Do you think I'm F9?"

"Well, Brother Wei, take us to the villa tomorrow to have a look. If everything is ok, we can go to the bank to transfer the money directly." Kang Qirui thought for a while and said, "After all, this is buying a house, not buying a cow across the mountain."

They left as soon as they said they would. After Kang Qirui paid the bill, they took a taxi to the villa. Er Lao felt sorry for the taxi fare, but Kang Qirui insisted that you can't drive after drinking. In those days, there was no concept of drunk driving, and many people didn't even wear seat belts when driving.

"I think this unit and the exterior wall of the building are very good, with greenery, high altitude and good air quality. Er Lao, why don't you go and take a look at the club?" As soon as A Zu arrived at the place, he casually looked at the environment and thought about going to the club.

The second brother glared at him and scolded him, "What's so good about the club? The key is the villa."

"It's okay, it's okay. Let's look at houses first and then go to the club. It's still early, haha." Kou Shuiwei tried to smooth things over and led everyone to the villa. After entering the house, Kang Qirui looked upstairs and downstairs carefully. He had to say that Kou Shuiwei had done a really good job.

In the spacious and bright living room, there is a set of branded sofas in the middle. The sofas are made of very comfortable materials and are estimated to be worth more than 10,000 yuan. There is also a small carpet in front of the sofa. In the corner of the living room, there is an exquisite dining table and several chairs. Although the decoration of each room is simple, it has everything it should have.

The kitchen in the villa is an open kitchen with all kinds of kitchen utensils, and they all look brand new and have never been used.

Kang Qirui estimated that the various soft furnishings and home appliances in the villa cost more than 30,000 yuan. He confirmed with Kou Shuiwei: "Are these sofas, big beds, air conditioners, and refrigerators also included in the price of the house?"

"Hahaha, that's right." Kou Shuiwei agreed verbally, but in his heart he was thinking that he would come back and move everything out as soon as the transfer was completed and the money was received.

Kang Qirui didn't point it out to him, and deliberately said: "All included, right? Okay, we'll write it into the contract when the time comes." Kou Shuiwei was stunned when he heard this, and immediately begged for mercy: "No, no, Brother Rui, Master Rui, I was wrong just now. These are not included. You can tell at a glance that you know what's good. These things of mine are very expensive, all brand names." In fact, Kou Shuiwei spent all his money on decorating his house too much by pursuing brand names, and now he can't pay the mortgage, so he is forced to sell. It's not about studying abroad or anything like that. Kang Qirui didn't tease him anymore, "Don't move these things away. I'll give you an extra 20,000 yuan, so sell them to me for a total of 50,000 yuan."

"Okay, it's settled." Kou Shuiwei was really short of money. He couldn't pay his mortgage and he also owed a lot of credit card debts. If he didn't sell the house, the bank would take it back and he would lose a lot of money. He would be happy to get 50,000 yuan back, so he nodded and agreed.

After looking at the house, A Zu called to go to the club for a walk. When they came out, it was already past five in the afternoon and the bank was closed. Kang Qirui and Kou Shuiwei agreed to go through the transfer and transfer procedures tomorrow morning. Er Lao waited until Kou Shuiwei left before asking, "You haven't discussed it with everyone yet, are you sure about this?"

A-Zu also looked at Kang Qirui with a questioning look on his face, only to hear Kang Qirui smile and say, "It doesn't matter. If Dad doesn't want to and you guys don't pay, I'll buy it myself, haha."

The second brother immediately said, "You buy it yourself? That won't work. I don't care what their attitude is. I will definitely go along with you. If they don't buy it, we can each split it in half."

A-Zu didn't express his opinion. If the five brothers and the old man and his mother bought together, he could still make up for it, but if there were three of them, he couldn't split it equally, and taking a smaller share would seem like taking advantage of his brothers. So he had to wait for the old man to express his opinion before making a decision.

When the three brothers returned to the Kang family, everyone had already had dinner. They ate some food that the mother had left for them in the dining room, then came out to the living room to tell everyone about their house-hunting trip today, waiting for their father's opinion.

"If everyone is willing to chip in, I'll contribute as well." The old man thought for a moment and said, "To be honest, it would be nice to have a place for the whole family to go on vacation during the holidays."

The mother wanted the whole family to be together happily and lively, so she smiled and said, "Anyway, these properties will be left to you in the future. If you want to buy them, your father and I will definitely support you."

"That's the most pleasing thing to hear, Ma." The second brother saw that he had a chance to buy a villa, so he said to his second sister-in-law proudly, "To be honest, who in our class doesn't have two houses? And, do you know how miserable my son is in school now? Many people laugh at him and say that he has no money because he doesn't have a house. But now that he's grown up, he already has self-esteem."

"As the saying goes, people fight for a breath, Buddhas fight for a stick of incense."

A Yao looked at Sachiko's eyes, and after confirming that Sachiko agreed, he smiled and said, "For Tianxiu's reputation at school, we agree to this villa, and it's ours."

Later, both Big Boss Guang and A-Zu expressed their willingness to form a partnership, and if it was divided into six parts, they could still afford it.

In the next two days, Kang Qirui and Er Lao went to run the formalities together. They ran until their legs were almost broken before they finally got everything done. "A Zong and A Rui, how is it? Has the property certificate been transferred to another name?" As soon as they got home, Da Dou asked.

"Dad, don't worry. A'rui and I have been there many times, and now it's almost done. The bank's mortgage approval will take tomorrow, but there will be no problem, don't worry." The second brother didn't feel tired when talking about the villa, and he spoke with a beaming eyelid.

"Hahaha, we've worked hard all our lives and finally live in a villa. Let's go play together this weekend." Upon hearing this, the old man decided to take the whole family on vacation this weekend, just as a new home party. He also didn't forget to show off to his neighbors, "I'll go next door to inform Liang, and then we'll go to the villa to play chess together, hahaha."

"That's right, I'll call Xianglan's relatives right now and tell them to show up." Big Brother Guang was also very happy.

The second brother and Kang Qirui looked at each other calmly. The reason why it took so long to complete was because they each bought two villas there. The second brother took out a bank loan, while Kang Qirui paid in full. They had made a little money from the World Cup before, and now that the real estate here is so cheap, it is a good time to buy a house.

In fact, the price will drop next year because there will be SARS next year. That will be the bottom of the Cantonese housing prices in the past 20 years, but you may not be able to buy it at a low price, because people are not willing to sell it at such a low price. The current price is just right, and many people are selling it.

"Remember to call your cousin Bing and ask him to catch some free-range chickens and bring them to the villa to eat chicken hotpot." Looking at the pregnant Sachiko, A Yao thought of the beautiful chickens raised by his cousin Bing in the countryside. This time he could take the opportunity to ask him to get some of them out to nourish Sachiko's body.

Seeing that A Zu didn't react, Er Lao asked, "Have you informed your boss, the old aunt? Take her to the villa when you have time. Let her know how powerful you are."

"Tsk, their villa is bigger than ours." A-Zu shook his head.
