Chapter 243 Li Leqiao inquires about ghosts
Li Le is no longer the ignorant novice he was before. He has a great understanding of furniture.
Mahogany, rosewood, and golden nanmu account for a small part of the furniture in this room, and the rest are ordinary woods.
But there are so many! There are quite a few in this small part, and most importantly, they are all well preserved.
Whether it is mahogany, rosewood, golden nanmu, or ordinary wood furniture, they are all well preserved.
"Auntie, what do you plan to sell?" Li Le asked.
You still need to ask clearly about this. If you only sell furniture made of ordinary wood, you will not be happy for nothing.
But it seems impossible, because no one pays attention to these now, and no one plays with these old furniture.
"Sell them all," the aunt said.
"Sell them all? Madam, don't you keep some at home for your own use?"
"No need, basically all the houses here have been rented out, except for the main house that hasn't been rented out yet."
Hearing what the aunt said, Li Le understood. It seemed that the main house was also planned to be rented out.
Then the furniture is of little use.
"Young man, you don't have to forget me piece by piece. Just tell me how much money can you give me for these pieces of furniture?"
Auntie is a happy person! Yes, if you have such a big house for rent, you are not short of money.
Li Le counted them silently. Not counting stools, there were more than fifty items in total.
And many of them are large items, such as large wardrobes and Arhat beds.
And this number is quite a lot.
In a few years, it is estimated that these furniture will not be collected by Li Le.
Because there will be trust stores run by the state at that time.
At that time, these things can be sent to trust stores for consignment, and the prices are not low.
It is estimated that an Arhat bed can be taken away for a hundred and eighty yuan. Of course, this refers to the price of the second set of RMB, which was also the currency used at that time.
According to the current price, that is 1.8 million. Fortunately, there is no trust store now, and the price is not that high.
After mentally estimating the price, Li Le said to the aunt: "The most I can offer you is five million. If it's any more, I won't make any money."
After hearing what Li Le said, the aunt thought for a moment and said, "Young man, please add more. Five million is a bit too little! With so much furniture, if we buy new ones, 20 million won't even be enough."
"Auntie, you also said that they are new and old furniture. They cannot be sold for the price at all. They are just some defects in the house. Then go to the scrap collection station to buy some."
Li Le's words left the aunt speechless, because what Li Le said was right, it is indeed the case now.
"Young man, let's do this! Take all six million away."
"This..." Li Le pretended to frown and said, "Okay! I guess this trip will be in vain."
Of course the aunt didn’t believe what he said! Six million would only make a little less at most, and it was impossible not to make money.
Otherwise Li Le wouldn’t want it!
Li Le's words are okay for women who have never seen the world, but they don't work for aunts.
"By the way, aunt, did you rent this house yourself, or did the state rent it out for you?"
"I rent it myself. There are two apartments at home now. We live in one, and rent out the other."
"Forehead!"
Li Le was speechless. Listen to this, there are only two apartments, and it's still now. It is estimated that there were many houses before, but after the new policy came down, the houses were spread out.
For example, one or two sets for each child.
Of course, you can also sell it, as long as it's not under one person's name.
In this case, you can keep part of it to live in yourself and rent out the rest, and no one can say anything.
"By the way, ma'am, are there any single people renting a house here?"
Hearing Li Le's question, the aunt glanced at him and said, "Young man, with your looks, you shouldn't have to worry about finding a partner, right?"
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Li Le to speak, he continued: "Although there are many people living here, there are really no single girls."
"Auntie, you misunderstood, I am not looking for a partner."
The aunt asked doubtfully: "Why are you asking this if you don't find a partner?"
"That's it, auntie. I live in a large courtyard, and the auntie next door is very nice to me.
This older woman has a daughter who is already 26 or 7 this year. She has no partner yet, so she asked me to help her keep an eye out for any single gay men.
But you also know that I am just a waste collector and I don’t know anyone! so……"
"Oh! So that's what happened. Are you asking for that young girl?" the aunt suddenly said.
"That's right." Li Le nodded.
In this era, it can be said that there are very few people who are still unmarried in their 26s and 7s. If they are lesbians, it is even less, or even none.
Since he is still unmarried at this age, it is basically difficult to find him, unless he finds someone whose wife is dead.
Because there was no such thing as divorce before, it only happened after the Marriage Law was promulgated.
"Not to mention, there is actually one. He lives in the northernmost room in the east wing of the backyard. I heard that his wife and children were killed by kidnappers, and then he never married again. He is about the same age, in his thirties."
"Auntie, did he say this himself?" Li Le asked.
"No way! It was said by the person who brought him to rent a house. We can't ask for details. After all, this is a sad thing for him."
Li Le nodded and said, "That's true. By the way, aunt, how is he?"
"Human! How should I put it? I go to and from get off work every day. I rarely talk to people. I basically stay in the house after get off work. I guess I haven't come out yet!"
Li Le nodded and pretended to agree: "It's possible. After all, my wife and child were killed. It's normal to be unable to get out for a while."
Those who needed to inquire were also asked. Li Le didn't say anything more, because the more he said, the more likely he would be wrong.
He opened the military satchel he was carrying and took out six bundles of money. This bundle was exactly one million.
"Mom, let me give you the money first, and then I will slowly take it away."
"Okay, let's do it! I don't live here now, and I can't wait here forever. I'll give you the key to this door, and you can figure it out yourself!"
Because there is nothing else in this room except furniture, and these furniture now belong to Li Le.
"Okay, ma'am, but after I finish taking away the furniture, how can I give you the key?"
"No, after all the furniture is removed, you can just lock the door and put the key on the window sill."
Hearing what the aunt said, Li Le thought about it. After he took away all the furniture, this would be an empty room, even if the door was locked or not.
"Okay, I get it."
The aunt handed the key to Li Le, took the money and left.
