Chapter 126: Do you want to buy our house?
The sun in July was already very fierce, and the sports car swept a series of yellow gray smoke on the hot cement road. When it slowly drove into the entrance of Chentang Town, it happened to be a little over 11:30.
Xu Ze slowed down and drove towards home. He thought to himself that his mother should have almost prepared a table of hearty dishes at this time and looked around at the door...
Maserati penetrated into the familiar old street and attracted the attention of many neighbors. Xu Ze did not show off, but just moved forward slowly, and the brick-red building slowly got closer and closer in his sight.
The entrance of the clinic was quiet. My mother did not seem to be at the door, but there was a strong smell of food coming from inside. Xu Ze smiled and parked the car at the door. In the astonished eyes of several familiar neighbors nearby, the three siblings opened the car door and walked out of the car.
Sister Zhang, who was opposite the door, opened her mouth wide and looked at the luxurious sports car in front of her. She looked at Xu Ze who took off her sunglasses. Finally, she came to her senses amid Xu Ze's greetings and responded a few times: "Hey...Ah Ze, you are back..."
Xu Hao carried the two bags of the brother and sister, followed his sister and brother, greeted the uncles and aunts next to him happily, and then walked into the house.
There was no one in the room at this time, but there were bursts of speeches coming from the dining room. Xu Ze raised his eyebrows and said to himself: "Are there any guests at home today? But even if there are guests, my parents should wait for us to go home before we can have a meal?"
At this time, Xu Hao and Xu Qing'er were carrying bags and violin upstairs first, planning to put things down before going down.
Xu Ze walked up to the dining room in confusion, but only heard his father in the middle of his deep helpless voice and said to someone: "Director Li, can our loan be extended for another half a year? We will pay the interest as per..."
"Doctor Xu, we are also old acquaintances. You also know that you couldn't get the loan this time. If you hadn't used the mortgage of the property this time, would you think you could get the 40,000 yuan?"
Director Li said arrogantly: "The industry is tight now. With your face, Dr. Xu, I have extended the deadline for you for three months. It is not possible to postpone it again... If you do not repay the loan this week, then we can only auction this property."
Hearing this, my mother said angrily: "Director Li, I heard that the Zhang family loaned the loan at the same time as us, and they extended it for another one year. Why can't we extend it?"
Hearing this, Director Li snorted in dissatisfaction: "Sister Xu, what are you saying? Their situation is different from yours. They have applied for an extension in advance. You are already late now... The industry has just issued a new rule to tighten the money, so you can't delay it anymore... Could it be that I, Mr. Li, will deliberately make things difficult for you?"
"Oh...Director Li, don't be angry, come and drink..." Hearing Director Li's shameless and angry look, Xu's father hurriedly said, "Come...Director Li, I'll give you a drink..."
"Tsk..." Director Li seemed to have another glass of wine, hesitated for a moment, and then smiled and said, "Doctor Xu, our fellow villagers for so many years, I will show you a way..."
"Okay... OK, thank you Director Li... You said, you said..." Xu's father hurriedly smiled.
"Well... I have a relative from afar, and he... Well... I know that your family is in financial difficulties now, so he is willing to pay 40,000 yuan to buy this store with you... In this way, you can pay back the 40,000 yuan... There is no need to auction this property... What do you think?" When Xu's father asked, Director Li said with a dry smile.
"What? Want to buy our storefront?" Xu's mother next to her raised her voice and said angrily: "Director Li, I bought our storefront, so where is our clinic? Are you kidding? That's not the same as selling our house directly?"
"Hehe...Sister Xu, that's not what you said. If you sell the storefront, at least the upper floor is yours. Can you still live in it... If the whole house is auctioned, then you have no place to live..." Director Li comforted him with hypocrisy.
Xu's father next to him finally understood what Director Li meant. He remembered that last year he said he had to mortgage the property before he could get a loan. And when he went to the postponement two months ago, he also refused, but he was delayed until now but could not postpone it. He couldn't help but say angrily: "Director Li, last time I came to apply for a loan extension, you said you couldn't win, so I asked me to come later... You can't just push it out because your relative wanted to buy our storefront!"
"Hmph...Doctor Xu, what do you mean? Will I, Mr. Li, still cheat you?" Director Li snorted coldly: "Anyway, I am just giving you some advice now. You should consider it yourself... But within a week, if you can't pay back the loan, then our bank will take your house and auction it directly... By then, if you don't even have a place to live, don't blame me for not giving you a chance..."
"Li Yutian, it seems that you have already planned this!" Facing Director Li's threat, Xu's father, who has always been gentle, was also angry. The clinic that his family had been open for so long, was threatened to sell it today. It really made him angry.
"Hmph...Doctor Xu, don't talk nonsense... This is nothing to do with me. You used the property to mortgage it yourself. If you don't have a loan yet, can you blame me?" Li Yutian's face changed. He threw the chopsticks in his hand, snorted coldly, but got up and picked up the bag beside him, turned around and left.
When he walked out of the dining room door, he turned his head sneered and said, "Doctor Xu, think about my proposal carefully, otherwise in a week... hum..." After saying that, after leaving this sentence, he walked out with a sneer.
Li Yutian is very proud now. He has been jealous of the Xu family's storefront for a long time. Last year, taking advantage of the Xu family's tightness, he finally tempted Xu's father to take out the property for a mortgage loan, and then used various means to get to the last step today.
He was very confident that the Xu family would accept this condition because the Xu family definitely didn't have much money at hand now, and even if they could raise 40,000 yuan, two months later, the three little kids of the Xu family would have to pay tens of thousands of yuan in tuition. In the end, the Xu family had to go this way.
They could only sell the storefront to their nominal distant relative for 40,000 yuan. Otherwise, when they were waiting for the auction, the Xu family would not even have a place to live, so they would not have made this choice.
But Xu's father was so angry that his face turned blue by Li Yutian. How could this clinic passed down from his ancestors be forcibly bought by someone like this?
But he rushed out of the clinic and shouted angrily at Li Yutian who was about to walk out of the clinic: "Li Yutian, don't dream, our clinic will never sell it to you..."
"Hmph... I'll let you do this. Then I'll see if you sell it..." Li Yutian was scolded by Xu's father, but now he became embarrassed and angry. He left with a word.
But the neighbors around him also heard the words that Xu's father, who had always been gentle, were shocked. Could it be that Li Yutian still planned to sell the Xu family's ancestral clinic? Could it be that he was crazy? How could the Xu family sell it?
Li Yutian had already had enough wine and had a full meal and burping, and was about to leave, but was blocked by a young man at the door.
Li Yutian glanced at the handsome young man who looked familiar in front of him and couldn't help but wonder: "Who are you?"
Xu Ze chuckled, "I heard you want to buy my clinic?"
"Hmm?" Li Yutian looked at the handsome young man in front of him with a smile on his face, squinted his eyes, and finally remembered that this seemed a bit like the eldest son of the Xu family, but why did he not see him for half a year, and it seemed to have changed a lot?
But he hummed with snorting at the moment: "It's not that I want to buy it, it's my relative... Your family owes a lot of money from our bank. If you don't pay it back, your house will be auctioned soon... So, I have found this way for your family. Please advise your stubborn dad to sell it early... Save the trouble..."
"Oh? Is your relative who wants to buy it?" Xu Ze smiled and looked at the fat man in front of him, and said with a chuckle: "Why do I think it's like you want to buy it?"
"Hmph... don't talk nonsense, it's my relative..." Li Yutian snorted coldly: "Boy, think about it carefully. If you don't sell it, we will come to seal the house in a few days. Then... Humph... I'm afraid you will have to sleep on the street..."
After hearing Li Yutian's words, the smile in Xu Ze's eyes finally jumped for a moment, and he raised his hand gently: "Pan..."
Li Yutian stared at the young man in front of him blankly, covering his hot face. He really didn't understand how the boy in front of him dared to hit him. As the director of the rural bank in Chentang Town, others have always been respectful to him. But now someone dared to hit him?
At that moment, Director Li finally reacted, trembling with his hands, pointed at Xu Ze with shame and anger and disbelief and shouted: "Boy, do you dare to hit me?"
"Bang..." Li Yutian felt a flash in front of him, and he was hit hard again on his face. He was almost slapped on the ground and was slapped in a circle. He finally held a door post next to him, but he didn't fall down.
Li Yutian covered his face, which was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, shook his head very much before he threw away the dizziness. His eyes looked at Xu Ze red like a bull, and shouted angrily: "Then you dare to hit me? I'll deal with you today..."
The fat body was swinging, and he planned to pounce on it, and Xu Ze counted.
But before he could get closer, there was another "bang", which was louder than the two just now... Li Yutian made two rounds and finally hugged the door post again with great luck.
He shook his head hard and smashed his mouth. Then he realized that his teeth seemed to have loosened a few, looking like they might fall off at any time...
