Chapter 276 The Impossible
Chapter 276 Impossible
Since Liu Xinyu, the landlord, and Zhang Baogen, the tenant representative, have such a relationship, District Chief Liu and Zeng Mingye can no longer interfere. After a meal, District Chief Liu and Zeng Mingye left directly and handed over the follow-up matters of the courtyard directly.
To Liu Xinyu.
This made Liu Xinyu feel very helpless, but she could not be said to be irresponsible.
In the afternoon, she had already settled the four-year trusteeship expenses with Zeng Mingye.
At District Chief Liu's insistence, Liu Xinyu accepted the leasing fee, excluding maintenance fees and custody fees, totaling 2,150 yuan.
"Let's go to the office and sit down. Let's talk about the follow-up matters." Liu Baogen arranged for the office's car to take District Chief Liu and Zeng Mingye home, turned around and looked at Liu Xinyu and said.
What else could Liu Xinyu do? She could only accept her fate and follow Zhang Baogen into the courtyard that was supposed to be her own home, but now became someone else's office.
Two red lanterns were hung in front of the courtyard door. The light from the two lights in the lanterns clearly illuminated the office signboard.
Looking at the big characters of Jiangnan Provincial Office in Beijing, Liu Xinyu was speechless. She was also from Jiangnan Province!
Zhang Baogen and Liu Xinyu sat down in the office. Director Chen made tea for them and went to the office opposite.
The director didn't let him go, so of course he couldn't get off work yet.
Zhang Baogen looked at Liu Xinyu who was sitting quietly, and couldn't help complaining that his eldest brother and sister-in-law were so ignorant. Such a talented, beautiful and wealthy daughter-in-law was actually killed by them.
What now?
Zhang Hongliang has become a 28-year-old bachelor, living a miserable life in the northwest, while Liu Xinyu is already a returned doctor and a teacher at Peking University. More importantly, she seems to be only 22 years old this year.
Sighing in his heart, Zhang Baogen did not get directly to the topic, but chatted with Liu Xinyu.
Liu Xinyu didn't want to talk too much about herself. After chatting about what she saw and heard in the UK, she went straight to the topic: "Uncle Zhang, I wonder what the office's plans are?"
Zhang Bao basically wanted to slowly turn the topic to Zhang Hongliang, but he didn't expect that Liu Xinyu wouldn't give him this chance at all, so he couldn't help but sigh secretly again.
Liu Xinyu is indeed young, but she cannot be regarded as an ordinary girl in her twenties who is ignorant. After a short period of getting along with her, Zhang Baogen realized how sophisticated Liu Xinyu is in dealing with people.
Zhang Baogen no longer struggles. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, not to mention that Zhang Hongliang is just his nephew.
"The province is interested in buying your courtyard house. Are you willing to sell it?" Zhang Baogen picked up the cigarette case on the table, thought about it and put it back. He looked at Liu Xinyu and asked very seriously.
Sell?
Of course it’s impossible!
Not to mention that the price of houses in Beijing has not risen yet, even if it has risen, Liu Xinyu has never thought of selling this courtyard house.
The resources for courtyard houses in the capital appear to be abundant now, but in fact they are not many. A few decades later, it will be even more difficult to find one.
What's more, this courtyard house carries too many memories for her.
Although Liu Xinyu just shook her head and didn't even say anything, Zhang Baogen could deeply feel Liu Xinyu's firm attitude of refusing to sell from her expression.
"That's such a pity! If you are willing to sell, the province can offer at least 50,000 yuan. With 50,000 yuan, you can buy a bigger courtyard house." Although Liu Xinyu's attitude has been very clear, Zhang
Baogen still didn't give up.
Liu Xinyu looked at Zhang Baogen indifferently and thought to herself: Is she someone who is short of money?
Of course, she would not say this directly, but just smiled and said: "Fifty thousand is indeed a lot. As long as you have the time and energy to search, you can definitely buy one or even two large courtyards, but it is a pity that it is not it!"
After a pause, he added: "Since the province has a budget of 50,000 yuan, and Uncle Zhang also said that we can buy a larger courtyard house, why do you have to buy my courtyard? It's better to quickly find a bigger and better courtyard house.
The province wants to add an industry to the capital."
The words were really not polite, and Zhang Baogen felt a little unhappy. He felt that Liu Xinyu's temperament was a bit unpleasant, and he looked at Liu Xinyu with a slightly unkind look.
Liu Xinyu didn't care what Zhang Baogen was thinking, nor did he care whether the look he looked at her was good or bad. She just wanted to take back the courtyard as soon as possible.
She is not short of money, has a well-paying job, and has a 5% share of the net profits of Shenghua Garment Factory, so she doesn't care about the rent of several hundred yuan per month for this courtyard house.
A few hundred dollars can be considered a "huge sum" to ordinary people in this era, but it is really nothing to Liu Xinyu. She pays more attention to her physical and mental pleasure.
If Zhang Baogen does not mention the purchase and continues to negotiate the lease with Liu Xinyu, Liu Xinyu may really continue to rent this courtyard house to Jiangnan Province as an office.
It's a pity that Zhang Baogen wanted to buy this courtyard house and looked at her from a condescending perspective that Liu Xinyu didn't like, which naturally made Liu Xinyu very disgusted.
So what if he is Zhang Hongliang's biological uncle?
Liu Xinyu is someone who can be beaten even by Wu Qiaozhen when pushed hard!
When the conversation reaches this level, some people can no longer continue.
Zhang Baogen shook his head helplessly. The Jiangnan Provincial Office in Beijing has been in this courtyard house for four years. Changing places will bring a lot of trouble. Even if it needs to be changed, it is not easy to change. There must be a buffer time.
Although Zhang Baogen is now the director of this office, he only took office a year ago.
From the day he took office, he knew that the office could last until this summer at most in this courtyard.
After the New Year, he asked people to start looking for a new yard, and even persuaded the province to purchase real estate directly in the capital.
It’s just that I haven’t found the house I want yet.
It takes time for the office to find a suitable house, and it also takes time to repair the house after the office finds it. Of course, it also takes time to move, so Liu Xinyu must be persuaded to agree to extend the lease no matter what.
Zhang Baogen glanced at Liu Xinyu and asked for a six-month extension: "Think again, of course it's your right to sell or not. If you really don't want to sell, can you let us rent it for another period of time, how about half a year?"
Liu Xinyu didn't refuse directly. She was from Jiangnan Province after all, so she couldn't be left without a place to work.
After pondering for a moment, Liu Xinyu decided to follow Zhang Baogen's wishes and extend the lease term to the end of August: "I will definitely not sell it. The lease term can be extended to the end of August. I will come to take possession of the house on August 31st. If Uncle Zhang agrees,
, let’s sign a new lease.”
Liu Xinyu's decision made Zhang Baogen look at Liu Xinyu a few more times, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
