But Lin Fang didn't care. He asked curiously: "Is there an old courtyard over there in Xuhui?"

This is Shanghai, and Lin Fang really doesn't believe there are old courtyards in the city.

When Wei Zhongmin heard this, he hurriedly said: "Of course, there are many more.

The yard is not small, and the house is quite sturdy."

Then Wei Zhongmin said a lot of good things about the house. Lin Fang thought it was good at first, but after listening to it, he felt something was wrong and asked directly: "Shanghai has such a large population, how can that courtyard be trapped and unoccupied?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Zhongmin suddenly showed an embarrassed look on his face.

"Ahem, there must be no problem with the house, it's just that there's no room for it!"

Lin Fang was stunned: "If you don't have time, why sell it?"

Suddenly, Lin Fang remembered a situation. It seemed that he remembered watching a TV series. There was a plot in which someone went abroad for a few years and wanted to sell his old yard. As a result, many former relatives and neighbors lived in the yard.

Regardless of giving it up, he just tried his best to prevent it from being sold, and even tried to find trouble by saying that he had a share in the house.

Lin Fang immediately looked at Wei Zhongmin, with a serious look on his face, and asked, "Are there many people living in that yard and they are unwilling to move out?"

Nowadays, it is no longer news that people in Shanghai are in a tight housing situation. Lin Fang does not believe that there are still old yards for sale. There is definitely a problem.

"Ahem, there are indeed about ten households living here!"

Wei Zhongmin looked very embarrassed.

Lin Fang sighed. He was not willing to deal with trouble for others. He shook his head and said, "There is no need to consider this. Let's talk about the old bungalow in Jing'an."

Generally speaking, if the old bungalows are preserved to this day, many of them will be in better condition.

Because many of them were previously used as offices for some units rather than for residences.

Later, it was returned to the original owner, which is why it was sold.

At present, there are very few commercial houses in Shanghai, so he can only consider these old houses first. Otherwise, he would rather consider new houses instead of these old houses, which have to be tidied up again!

"The house has two floors, with seven or eight rooms on the upper and lower floors, and a large yard. It can accommodate a large family.

The houses are all in the style of European houses, which are very beautiful.

Not far behind is the Suzhou River, and the scenery is great. This house seems to be quite popular. I heard that several people are looking at it. I even met one, who I heard is a big boss!"

After Lin Fang listened, although what Wei Zhongmin said was not very clear, he thought the house was in a good location and was well preserved.

"When can we go see it?" Lin Fang asked directly.

"You can do it at any time. The family is in a hurry to go abroad to use money. I heard that they have immigrated. They are waiting in the house alone every day for someone to see the house.

It’s just that the asking price is a bit high, it’s... 500,000!"

When he told the price, Wei Zhongmin kept looking at Lin Fang's expression.

When he saw that Lin Fang's expression didn't seem to change, his eyes suddenly lit up with joy.

The owner of that house said that he would give 1,000 yuan as a thank you to anyone who could recommend selling the house.

If Lin Fang buys this house, he will make a lot of money. Not only can he get a sum of money from Lin Fang, but he can also get 1,000 yuan from the owner of the house. This is definitely a big profit.

Lin Fang nodded: "Okay, let's go see it in the afternoon!"

Wei Zhongmin nodded quickly: "No problem!"

Then he asked: "Do you want to see the yard opposite the old pier?"

Lin Fang thought for a while and said: "Tomorrow, I happen to have nothing to do, so I'll go take a look!"

Wei Zhongmin nodded quickly: "Okay, then I'll call the landlord later!"

After lunch, Lin Fang and Wei Zhongmin called a taxi and went to the old bungalow by the Suzhou River.

On the bank of the Suzhou River, among the trees, a Western-style house with red walls and white windows stands quietly, looking very harmonious.

Before even getting close, Lin Fang fell in love with this house at first sight.

The house has only two floors and the area is not large, but judging from the space enclosed by the wall, the area is quite large.

"Mr. Lin, this is it!"

When Wei Zhongmin saw Lin Fang's eyes shining, he felt a little more happy.

Lin Fang nodded: "Well, let's go and have a look!"

Wei Zhongmin hurriedly agreed, walked to the gate and banged the big iron door hard.

The walls here clearly have some thought, many brick joints are full of moss, and there are even low weeds growing on the top of the walls.

After beating for a while, a sound of agreement came from the courtyard, and soon a small door opened on the big iron gate, revealing a capable man in his fifties.

When Wei Zhongmin saw this person, he immediately said: "Hello, remember me. I came here two days ago. I brought a friend to see the house!"

The man obviously recognized Wei Zhongmin, then nodded with a smile, and then looked at Lin Fang.

"You just want to see the house?"

The man seemed a little unconvinced. After all, Lin Fang was too young.

Being young means not having much money.

This is not to look down on people, but this is the reality.

As far as the current social situation is concerned, no one with money is at least thirty or forty years old, otherwise there would be no time to make money.

Of course, there are also some second-generation rich people whose families have money. Although Lin Fang's clothes are not vulgar, they don't make him feel like a rich person.

Lin Fang nodded: "Yes, I want to see the house!"

The man seemed reluctant, but he hesitated and nodded: "Come in!"

Only then did he give up his position in the door.

After walking through the door, Lin Fang could fully see the situation in the entire yard.

The house occupies a small area, less than one-tenth of it, and the entire yard is obviously a little deserted. It seems that it used to be a lawn, but now it is filled with trees and weeds of different heights, making it look very desolate.

In addition, there are more than a dozen large trees of different varieties in the yard, with lush branches and leaves, each covering a large area.

But these are minor problems and can be sorted out quickly.

Lin Fang looked directly at the house next to him. Although it was a little dusty, he could see that the house seemed to be well preserved.

"What's it like inside this house?"

The man looked at Lin Fang and said calmly: "Oh, it's not bad inside. It has wooden floors. Because it was used by a unit in the past, it is maintained every year.

Although it is old, the house is in good condition. There are no cracks in the walls and it is very strong.

It looks like two floors from the outside, but in fact there is an attic above, where you can store some sundries, and it is no problem to pack it up and live in it.

In addition, there is a basement, which is very convenient for storing items.”

"There used to be a garage over there, but it was demolished before."

"There used to be some swings and other places for children to play over there, but they are gone now, but you can make this yourself in the future!"

The man introduced various places as he walked, looking very familiar.

When he walked into the house, Lin Fang's eyes were filled with joy. The house was indeed well preserved. Although the floor was worn away from its original color in many places, there was no damage. It was obvious that good materials were used in the first place.

There are not many furnishings in the house. There are still some tables, chairs and benches from the previous office, which are currently piled against the wall.

There are still some remaining slogans on the wall, and it seems that the man has no intention to clean them up.

The rooms upstairs are also good, but the window glass in some rooms is broken and some places are moldy due to rain.

However, these are all minor issues, and Lin Fang is basically satisfied.

Lin Fang looked at almost every place he could see, including the attic and basement.

This made the man frown and become a little impatient.

Lin Fang gave him the impression that he was a child who had never seen the world, as if he had come here specially to gain experience.

It's not like he has never encountered this kind of thing before.

"Old sir, your house is quite nice!"

Returning to the living room on the first floor, Lin Fang looked up at the Republican-style chandelier on the ceiling and said.

The man didn't speak, but nodded slightly.

Lin Fang didn't hear the reply, so he noticed the other person's face and immediately realized what the other person meant. He quickly asked with a smile: "Old sir, I wonder how much you are willing to sell this house for?"

The old man was surprised. Lin Fang's words were a bit direct.

"500000!"

The old man finally said it without hesitation, just as Wei Zhongmin said before.

Lin Fang nodded: "Is it convenient to transfer the ownership?"

The old man's eyes were even more surprised. The other people he had met would immediately bargain down the price when it came to the price, but Lin Fang actually directly asked about the transfer. He didn't know whether he didn't hear the amount clearly, or whether he really didn't care because he had money.

"Well, transferring ownership is very convenient. There are all the procedures and you can do it at any time!
