Chapter 646: Chapter 0647: Encounter with the He Family Butcher
The area here was very small, definitely not as comfortable as the bungalow they used to live in or Ye Qiu’s villa, but to Liu Daqing and his wife, it seemed very expensive.
If it weren’t for Ye Qiu helping them buy this ordinary house, they wouldn’t have been able to afford it themselves, so the two of them naturally wouldn’t ask for more.
"Mr. Ye, what do you think?"
Consultant Luo asked.
"Let’s check out a few more," Ye Qiu replied.
As they took the elevator down from the upstairs, just as they exited the elevator, Ye Qiu unexpectedly saw Butcher He and his wife with He Xiaoqing.
Ye Qiu had already decided not to see these three people anymore. Who’d have thought he’d run into them in this residential area?
Liu Lingxiu also saw them and glanced at Ye Qiu curiously.
Ye Qiu suddenly recalled that some time ago, the residents of the old textile factory community said that Butcher He and his wife owed others money that they hadn’t repaid, and that Li Lanfang used it to buy a house. Could it be in this residential complex?
Seeing the three of them disgusted Ye Qiu, especially Li Lanfang. Whoever stuck with her would feel unlucky.
"Let’s go. We’re not considering this residential area," Ye Qiu said directly.
While Consultant Luo was still somewhat puzzled, Liu Daqing and his wife were not very clear, though Liu Lingxiu seemed to understand.
As they got into the car, Ye Qiu drove past Butcher He and his wife. The three of them recognized Ye Qiu’s car, but Ye Qiu just drove off.
Now, Ye Qiu found it increasingly strange. He and his parents moving to this area didn’t mean Li Lanfang’s family couldn’t move here. After all, Jiangnan was big and not just his alone.
Who knew that Li Lanfang would actually buy a house in a residential complex near Peach Blossom Source, using the money others had lent Butcher He for medical treatment? What was she thinking? Ye Qiu really didn’t know.
After leaving the complex, Consultant Luo drove them to another residential area, which turned out to be similar to the previous one, just a bit smaller.
They parked the car, took an umbrella to the elevator entrance, and went up to the nineteenth floor. Consultant Luo unlocked the door and led them inside. The area was similar to the previous one, about sixty to seventy square meters, but it was two to three thousand yuan per square meter cheaper.
While Liu Daqing and Zhang Yuehong inspected the inside carefully, Ye Qiu waited on the sofa in the living room. Consultant Luo said, "Mr. Liu, this unit faces north to south, warm in winter and cool in summer. It gets plenty of sunlight and ventilation, making it very comfortable to live in."
Being on the nineteenth floor, there was nothing to block the sunlight. From morning till evening, sunlight flooded the balcony in the living room.
Overall, it was better than the last one.
But for Ye Qiu, the total price of the house meant they were all roughly the same. The only difference was in the residential complex.
After looking around, Liu Daqing and Zhang Yuehong were very satisfied but still wanted to see more.
"Mr. Luo, we’d like to see a few more,"
"Sure," Luo Consultant replied.
Since Consultant Luo had the time, and Ye Qiu had a luxury car to drive them around, escorting Ye Qiu and the others all day was no problem.
After seeing another two units, it was lunchtime.
They were getting hungry and had seen all the preselected houses. Ye Qiu suggested having lunch first and then deciding which one to buy.
In Ye Qiu’s view, if they were going to live somewhere, it had to be comfortable. He initially wanted to buy the couple a multi-million dollar duplex, but they didn’t dare accept it, so this was the compromise.
Ye Qiu drove to a nearby luxury seafood restaurant, parked the car, and the five of them went inside. Ye Qiu booked a private room.
After sitting down in the private room, Ye Qiu knew it was the first time Liu Daqing and his wife had come to such a place, so he ordered the dishes first and then let them think about which house to buy.
If none of the homes appealed to them, Ye Qiu would ask Consultant Luo to find other options.
Ye Qiu had time these days and could take Liu Daqing and his wife around slowly.
To Ye Qiu, a couple hundred thousand wasn’t much. But to Liu Daqing and his wife, it was a considerable sum, so they needed to think it over carefully.
"Ye Qiu, we need to go back and think it through," Liu Daqing said.
"Uncle Liu, you and Auntie should take your time. After lunch, we’ll look at some storefronts and see which is suitable for a small supermarket. That way, you two can just sit and collect money," Ye Qiu replied.
Anyone without a source of income would certainly feel a sense of crisis.
Liu Daqing and Zhang Yuehong were the same. They used to work at a factory in Jiangbei, earning four to five thousand yuan a month combined. Though not much, it was enough to support a family of three.
Now, suddenly without an income, Liu Daqing and his wife were genuinely worried.
As for whether opening a small supermarket would make money, they didn’t know, but Ye Qiu had already made the decision, so they complied.
About fifteen minutes later, as two female waitresses brought over the seafood Ye Qiu had ordered, Ye Qiu said, "Uncle Liu, Auntie, Manager Luo, take your time. After we eat, we’ll go see more places."
Ye Qiu served a piece of fish to Liu Lingxiu, and Liu Daqing and Zhang Yuehong exchanged a glance and smiled.
The meal lasted almost an hour and a half, and the five of them were quite full.
After another twenty minutes of sitting and finishing the fruit dessert, Ye Qiu called a waitress to settle the bill. The meal had cost as much as Liu Daqing used to earn in a month.
However, considering Ye Qiu’s Imperial Cuisine Restaurant, a table of dishes there could be even more expensive, so this place didn’t seem that costly anymore.
"Consultant Luo, help my girlfriend’s parents find a good house first, and I’ll treat you to a meal at the Imperial Cuisine Restaurant," Ye Qiu said.
"I couldn’t possibly!" Consultant Luo quickly replied.
Consultant Luo knew about the Imperial Cuisine Restaurant, which had recently opened. Customers who had dined there wanted to return, indicating the food was indeed excellent.
But, a meal there cost his monthly base salary. Unless he was treating clients and could be reimbursed, Consultant Luo wouldn’t dare go.
Of course, he hadn’t gone yet.
Leaving the seafood restaurant, they got into the car, and Consultant Luo led them to a shopfront.
These shops were all along busy streets, with high foot traffic. Inside, the areas were not large, ranging from a dozen to twenty square meters to about forty or fifty square meters. But they all cost at least sixty to seventy thousand yuan per square meter, making them potentially more expensive than the elevator apartment they had viewed earlier.
Buying was an option, though renting was possible too. However, Ye Qiu had asked Consultant Luo to find options for purchase to avoid Liu Daqing and his wife worrying about monthly rent.
