Chapter 36 This is a "compromise"
"This idea...seems like a good one."
"Hmm... do we have enough money to buy a house? The housing prices in the safe zone are ridiculously expensive. Even if we only pay the down payment, we can't afford it."
"Then let's look at a place a little further away?"
"We still have to be closer to a safe area. They have two children living there, so safety is the most important thing."
"Keleda, what do you think of the houses in this area? Our Dingni is definitely enough for a down payment in this area."
Bai Yu: "Ahem! How many people..."
"This one's not an option. This building was built by Yuanjing Industrial. You can't live there."
"It's built by Yuanjing? That's not habitable..."
Bai Yu raised his voice and said, "I'm going to ask a few people..."
"Anton, what was the name of the real estate owner we worked with last time? Do you still have his contact information? Let's ask him if he has any houses available."
"Grace, do you think we should buy a new house or look at a second-hand house?
If you’re in a hurry to move in, I think a renovated second-hand house is better.”
"That makes sense. You're really attentive! Then let's take a look at second-hand properties. It would be best if we built our own house so we can live there with peace of mind."
"Wow! Are these the houses you built? So cool!!" This is Fu Fu who sneaked in at some point.
"Hahaha, that's not bad! Fufu, where do you want to live? I want to see if there's a boss I've worked with before and get an insider's price. It can be a lot cheaper!"
"Stop it for a moment!!!" Bai Yu, who had been ignored several times, finally couldn't help himself. He walked up to the group of people who were discussing heatedly and slammed the table. "Why don't you listen to my opinion first!"
Ever since Keleda said she wanted to buy a house for Bai Yu, the people from Baizhi Heavy Industry seemed to have found their target. They ignored Bai Yu and started discussing heatedly where to buy a house.
Bai Yu, who was left out, of course disagreed with this idea. After all, he knew very well how outrageous the housing prices in Juequ Zero were.
He had originally intended to accept a relatively generous reward, so that Keleda and the others could put their lives at ease. However, a property as a reward was far beyond Bai Yu's reach.
Hadn't Baizhi Heavy Industry's accounts always been cleaner than their work clothes? Or was this just another part of fate adding to the deficit on Baizhi Heavy Industry's bills?
"You're right. I'm sorry, we shouldn't ignore your feelings." Grace held her chest with her hands, looked at Bai Yu sincerely and said, "My dear benefactor Bai Yu, come and see which house you like?
We will give priority to your opinions.
Don't worry about the price, just pick the one you like. Even if it's in the safe zone, give us some time and we can get the down payment together.
So take your pick! "
Just when Bai Yu was relieved that someone finally understood what he meant, Grace changed the subject and asked about Bai Yu's preferences.
"You should listen to what I say!" Bai Yu roared, "Besides, who do you think I am? How could I possibly choose a house in a safe zone?
No! I mean, I never agreed to take your house.
If you really feel bad, just give me an extra dime."
"Brother Bai Yu, we've been working in the construction industry for so many years. We know a lot of people and can get an insider price. If you want to buy it yourself, it will be much more expensive.
It's really better to tell us and let us help you buy it. We can use the remaining difference to renovate the house for you.
I promise to make sure everything is neat and tidy for you." Ben patted his chest and promised Bai Yu.
"Thank you for your advice, but I really don't plan to buy a house." Bai Yu said weakly.
"My benefactor, please listen to us! Renting a house means you're helping the landlord pay the mortgage, and it's not as good as owning your own house.
Plumber, electrician, painter, carpenter, bricklayer, whatever kind of person you want! ?
"There's nothing we can't find at Baizhi Heavy Industry. Whether it's bare-bones renovations or second-hand refurbishment, as long as you decide, we guarantee to make every possible arrangement." Anton proudly explained to Bai Yu how capable his brothers were.
"You guys at Baizhi Heavy Industry are really versatile... I thought the construction industry was only about building houses." Bai Yu felt like he was talking to a cow, and Anton and the others weren't listening to him at all.
"They are all related skills. Over time, everyone will naturally learn them. This knowledge can also be used when building a house." Keleda explained to Bai Yu seriously.
"...I won't talk about money. After all, you are so sincere that you would sell everything you have.
I completely felt it." Bai Yu sighed deeply and decided to change his approach to persuade them to give up on giving him the house. "I just want to ask. Even if you really buy the house, can my name be written on the property deed?"
"Of course... uh..." Grace and the others looked at Bai Yu who finally gave in, but before they could even be happy, they were stumped by this question.
They looked at Bai Yu and Fu Fu's young faces, and they looked younger than their president.
Then he remembered Bai Yu's request. It was because he had no guardian that he came to Bai Zhizhonggong, and the house purchase matter suddenly came to a standstill.
"It seems you've finally calmed down and realized the problem." Bai Yu, who had finally turned the tables, felt the pressure in his chest suddenly clear. He smiled and said, "Fu Fu and I are both minors without guardians. Even if you buy the house, you can't hand it over to us.
So now can we give up this idea and talk it over?"
“…I can only give up.”
"Ah~~, then let's discount Dinny according to the house price."
"I'm so unwilling, I've already given in..."
Bai Yu's forehead was filled with black lines after hearing these complaints. He really wanted to complain to the people at Baizhi Heavy Industry. They weren't discussing business, so why were they so disappointed?!
"Wait a minute!!" Keleta, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly slammed her hand on the table and shouted, "I figured it out!"
Keleida stared at Bai Yu with a sharp gaze and said confidently, "Since Brother Bai Yu doesn't want the house we gave you, and you're looking for a place to live, you'll probably use our Dingni to pay the rent.
Then why don’t we just buy a house and rent it to you guys, Brother Baiyu, for free? Wouldn’t that solve the problem?!”
Good boy! Bai Yu couldn't help but lean back after hearing this.
"Oh!!! President, you are such a genius!! This is a great idea!" Anton clapped his hands excitedly and took the lead in applauding for Kalida.
"First, we'll buy a house and put it under the company's name, letting Brother Baiyu live there for free. After two years, when Brother Baiyu reaches adulthood, the house can be transferred directly to him.
In this way, all the problems are solved. President, you are really smart! "Ben settled the account and gave their president a heartfelt applause.
"Well done! Keleda!! Now my little benefactor has nothing to say!!" Grace clapped her hands excitedly, happy that they were the winner in the end.
"Nothing, ahem, stop exaggerating. Sit down." Keleda, who had been resting her hands on her hips, cleared her throat awkwardly upon hearing the praise from Grace and the others. She waved her hand, signaling them to stop clapping.
Then, Keleida looked at Bai Yu, who was sitting motionless on the sofa, and said with a bright smile, "Come on, Brother Bai Yu. Please help us pick a suitable property!"
Fu Fu knelt on the sofa beside Bai Yu, holding the paper fan she had just folded, and kept fanning Bai Yu, whose entire body had turned into a line drawing.
But deep down, I still felt unsatisfied with this wonderful match.
'It's so rare to see Xiaobai lose so completely~' Fu Fu thought quietly, blinking.
