My Courtyard Refuge
Chapter 044
Sky-high priced milk powder
The owner of the courtyard house finally made a concession, and this time it was Xu Dong who pulled Mr. Wang down the corridor.
“Mr. Wang, based on your intuition, do you think this is Mr. Cai’s reserve price?” Xu Dong asked softly.
“I think it should be about the same, 6.65 million, which is already much lower than the market price. Mr. Xu, if you are really interested, I advise you to get it as soon as possible. The real estate market is getting hotter every day.”
Of course, Mr. Wang wants to reach an agreement as soon as possible, so as not to have long nights and dreams, so his attitude is very positive.
Xu Dong thought about it, and went back to the house to talk toXu Ma and the others discussed it, and under his strong persuasion, the house was finally bought.
He usually has to go to work, so he doesn’t have much time to look at the house, so don’t bother, anyway, the family is not short of the hundreds of thousands of dollars.
After negotiating the price, the two parties quickly signed a house purchase contract. Xu Dong transferred a deposit of 200,000 yuan on the spot, and the intermediary was responsible for the rest.
And if you want to get the real estate certificate, you need to wait at least ten days and half a month.
===Section 33===
“Mr. Wang, try to speed up the review on your side. I’m in a hurry to use the room.” Before leaving, Xu Dong demanded.
“I understand, Mr. Xu, don’t worry, I will definitely watch over it for you.” Mr. Wang assured.
“Then thank you very much!”
“You’re welcome, this is what we should do.”
…
After finishing the house, Yu Dong once again lived a leisurely life comparable to rice worms.
However, there were also many trivial matters, not just after lunch, Gao Yuemei came over again to ask about the progress of the milk powder.
“Xiao Xu, Xiao Xu…”
“Sister Gao, why are you here? Hurry up and blow on the electric fan. Look at you, you are sweating. You should take an umbrella when you come out.”
Xu Dong quickly put away his phone, he was too focused on it just now.
“Eldest sister is not hot.” Gao Yuemei wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve.
Xiao Wang poured Gao Yuemei a glass of water: “Sister Gao, drink some water.”
“Thank you, Xiao Wang.”
Gao Yuemei took the water glass, but didn’t drink it. Instead, she looked at Xu Dong anxiously, her eyes full of anticipation.
Xu Dong couldn’t stand it, so he quickly explained:
“Sister Gao, I asked about the milk powder for you, and it is indeed out of stock now.”
Sister Gao’s face darkened quickly, looking like a desperate old woman.
Xu Dong didn’t dare to go around in circles anymore, so he changed the topic: “But…”
“But what?” Hope was rekindled in Gao Yuemei’s eyes.
“But it should be in stock next week.”
Gao Yuemei patted her chest, and said softly: “It’s enough to have milk powder, there is no shortage of these few days.”
She was completely helpless, the little grandson just refused to eat, tried rice soup, tried batter, nothing worked.
If she couldn’t find milk powder anymore, she would have the cheek to ask someone to borrow milk, but this is not a long-term solution after all, and weaning cannot be avoided.
Xu Dong nodded, and then said hesitantly: “It’s just… Miss Gao, the… price may be a bit… expensive.”
“How expensive?” Gao Yuemei thumped in her heart, ready to be slaughtered.
“The milk powder is imported brand-name milk powder, and a can costs 8,000 yuan.”
Xu Dong suddenly raised the price of milk powder more than ten times, and he didn’t want to take advantage of others, but if he didn’t pay a high price, he wouldn’t be able to frighten those people who are so sophisticated.
A total of 100 boxes of baby milk powder have been hoarded in their own warehouse, a total of 600 cans, half of which are rations for the triplets for the next three years.
After three years, this batch of milk powder will almost expire.
In other words, Xu Dong has a surplus of 300 cans, which can be used for trading.
Although the number is not small, at most it can supply 10 babies for a year.
Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, let’s just talk about the price directly. Whoever has a high price will get the milk powder, so as not to make it difficult for yourself.
Gao Yuemei was really taken aback, the price was indeed exaggerated.
But fortunately, their whole family works in a state-owned enterprise, and the economic conditions are not bad. 8,000 yuan is not unacceptable, so they gritted their teeth and bought it.
“Can I buy a few more cans?”
Xu Dong thought about it, and it was not good to give too much. He seemed too capable to do this, so he sighed and said, “Two cans at most, and there is also a shortage there.”
“Thank you, Xiao Xu, you are very busy, elder sister is very busy.” Gao Yuemei thanked quickly.
Xu Dong waved his hand, “I’m just a middleman, the key depends on whether they have the goods there.”
“I still want to thank you, Xiao Xu, and the eldest sister will transfer the money to you now.”
“Sister Gao, let’s wait until the milk powder arrives. There is no rush.” Xu Dong immediately refused.
“That’s fine too!”
Not long after Gao Yuemei left, Section Chief Li called again and told him to collect his salary slips. Today is May 6, the day when the power company pays wages.
“Boom boom boom…”
“come in!”
“Uncle Li, I’m here.”
Section Chief Li didn’t talk nonsense, handed the salary slip to Xu Dong, and said casually: “You joined the job on the 12th of last month, and you worked for a total of 18 days in April. Do you think it’s right?”
“That’s right, I didn’t go to work until the twelfth.”
Xu Dong took the salary slip and first looked at the total salary.
“Wow”, 10,600 yuan, far exceeding expectations.
Looking at it, Xu Dong quickly realized something was wrong, so he asked:
“Uncle Li, I only worked for 18 days last month, why is there full attendance here? Is there a mistake?”
Section Chief Li shook his head and explained: “In your situation, you couldn’t get full attendance, but II specially marked the reason for you, and naturally there will be no problem. ”
“Thank you, Uncle Li.” Xu Dong quickly thanked him. After all, 1,200 yuan is worth a thank you.
“Okay, if there is no problem, you can go back to work!”
Xu Dong hummed a ditty and returned to the north gate. Although the salary was not much, but after all, he worked hard every day, so he still had a sense of accomplishment.
“Brother Xu, how much is your salary?” Xiao Wang asked.
“It’s in the early 10,000s. If you go to school for a full month, you should be able to get around 17,800.” Xu Dong replied.
Xiao Huang enviously said: “If I can get half of the salary, I will be so happy.”
“Young people, don’t say that you can’t die. More than 10,000 yuan is not a high salary. As long as you work hard, there are many opportunities to make a lot of money.”
After all, he was young and confused, Xu Dong is still willing to encourage young people a lot.
Moreover, today’s world is undergoing major changes unseen in a thousand years. As long as you are willing to endure hardships and have the ability, there will be opportunities everywhere in the future.
In Xu Dong’s previous life, if he hadn’t had too many concerns about his family, he would have gone out to make a living.
“Brother Xu, you are a rich man who doesn’t know how hungry a man is. If we had the chance, we wouldn’t come here to be security guards.” Xiao Wang smiled wryly.
Xiao Cheng even echoed: “What a struggle, I have run express delivery and delivered food before, but in the end it is better to be a security guard.”
“Okay, okay.” Xu Dong waved his hand, “I can’t explain it clearly now, but you will understand later.”
