Chapter 198 High Score
Hua Lichu really wanted to buy a piece of land and wait for its value to appreciate, but she wasn't one to be fooled.
Over the past week, she has gone to see a lot of houses and land with Uncle Gu.
However, the locations are either more remote, and she is unsure about the future development of those areas. Locations that are certain to develop in the future generally have inflated prices.
Most importantly, while those sellers wanted to sell their land, they weren't in a hurry.
After looking around, only the first one seems the most suitable.
At the seller's sincere invitation, Hua Lichu accompanied him on another tour of the land.
But perhaps the seller still wanted to control Hua Lichu? The price reduction wasn't significant.
The implication seemed to be that the land was priced at 16 yuan.
Hua Lichu looked at the piece of land in front of her that seemed to be glowing with gold. She neither said she would buy it nor that she wouldn't buy it. She only said that she would think about it when she got back.
But how could the seller let her leave?
He had specifically inquired about it; this girl had bought quite a few houses in the past few days. If he let her continue buying, who knew how much money she would have left? What if she didn't have enough to buy more land? Where would he find another buyer in such a short time?
Even if he can wait, his son can't!
Just yesterday, the debt collectors came knocking again, demanding that they repay the money within a week, or else...
The seller, thinking of his son crying with snot and tears streaming down his face, steeled his heart and gritted his teeth: "15!"
Hua Lichu pondered for a moment.
It has been exactly 10 days since the college entrance examination ended.
If she wants to buy this land, she'll have to go through the paperwork for a few more days, and by then her college entrance exam results should be out.
She needs to get home before the results are released, and also allow time for the train journey...
Let's do it today!
Since we've decided to buy it, we have to negotiate the price.
"13 million!"
The seller finally breathed a sigh of relief when Hua Lichu relented.
Bargaining is good; the fact that she's willing to bargain means she's interested.
"No, no! Lift it up a little higher."
After some back and forth, the two parties finally decided to compromise and agree on a transaction price of 14 for the land.
Once the deal was settled, the seller couldn't wait to take Hua Lichu to complete the transfer of ownership.
When Hua Li saw that the other party was in a hurry, she slowed down: "Don't rush, I need to have my lawyer come over."
Hua Lichu has always advocated that professional matters should be handled by professionals.
So when I got back from there that day, I immediately found a law firm and hired a lawyer who was good at handling this kind of case.
Therefore, whether it was this piece of land or the house she had previously bought, Hua Lichu entrusted the matter to this lawyer after agreeing on the price.
As it turned out, her choice was not problematic; in fact, it could be considered wise.
Seeing that Hua Lichu was under 18 years old, yet dared to spend so much money buying houses and land everywhere, and even charging thousands of dollars in legal fees, and being a soon-to-be freshman at Yenching University, how could the lawyer dare to underestimate her?
As soon as he arrived, he immediately threw himself into his work.
They even go so far as to find someone to learn about the property before drafting a housing contract.
It was precisely because of his caution that he actually discovered quite a few problems.
He wrote the issues in detail in the contract, thus avoiding many potential problems.
When Hua Li first saw that he was very hands-on and attentive in his work, she began to have some thoughts about him.
When paying the final legal fees, he intentionally or unintentionally revealed that he was going to start a company and that he did not have suitable legal counsel.
That lawyer was a shrewd one; he immediately seized the opportunity and started promoting himself aggressively.
In the countless years that followed, whenever the lawyer recalled that day, he felt extremely fortunate.
A few days later, Hua Lichu successfully obtained the land certificate and all the property certificates.
Without time to do anything else, amidst Hua Yuansheng's repeated urging phone calls and Hua Antao's reluctant gaze, she boarded the train back home.
On the day she arrived home, Hua Lichu hadn't even had time to sit down before she received her freshly printed score sheet from the postman.
Hua Yuansheng rubbed his hands together excitedly, his lips trembling so much that he couldn't even speak.
Hua and Qiu stared longingly at the score sheet in Hua Lichu's hand:
"Pear, quickly open it and take a look!"
Hua Lichu smiled as she looked at the relatives and friends surrounding her in three or four layers.
Then, he carefully tore open the express envelope and slowly pulled out the score sheet.
Prior to this, Hua Lichu had always felt that she was mentally prepared.
But when she saw her score and her name on the score sheet, she couldn't help but tear up.
Two lifetimes of obsession and three years of hard work have finally come to fruition at this moment.
"Grandpa, I did it! I scored 739! I can go to Peking University!"
Hua Lichu excitedly hugged Hua Yuansheng, jumping and skipping around.
Hua Yuansheng's tears streamed down his face. He hugged Hua Lichu, who was unusually childlike, and said emotionally:
"Great! Great! My pear is doing a great job!"
"I'm going to tell my sister this good news!"
After saying that, Hua Lichu grabbed the score sheet and ran off.
Hua Yuansheng followed closely behind: "I'm going to tell my brother this good news!"
Hua and Qiu stretched out their hands, watching the grandfather and grandson leave like a gust of wind:
"Hey, I haven't even seen it yet! Seriously, only you two have older brothers and sisters..."
With tears in her eyes, Yan Moli smiled and comforted Hua and Qiu, "It's okay, we haven't seen it yet either!"
Just as Hua Lichu and Hua Yuansheng finished their phone call and returned, people from the school arrived.
Before the school leaders could leave, people from the Education Bureau arrived.
Everyone looked at Hua Lichu with excitement:
"Great! Congratulations on your score of 739! With this score, you're sure to be admitted to Yanda University! You've brought honor to No. 1 High School and to us!"
For some time afterward, while waiting for her college admission letter at home, Hua Lichu was frequently invited by the media, schools, and the education bureau.
She went to several occasions that she simply couldn't refuse, shared her experiences with everyone, and then refused to go anymore.
Don't ask, the answer is that time is running out!
She needed to settle her family business before going to Yenching University to register.
Hua Yuansheng, unlike his previous easygoing demeanor, forcefully demanded that a large banquet be held.
Not only should we hold a ceremony for Hua Lichu, but we should also make up for Hua Antao's.
Not only Hua Yuansheng felt this way, but everyone felt that this banquet was absolutely necessary.
Hua Anyan even came over specifically to say, "Don't worry, you don't need to pay for this banquet; our village will pay for it!"
You don't need to worry about it. You two just need to show up on the day of the banquet!
Since they've said all that, the two sisters have no choice but to agree!
Hua Yuansheng, fearing that Hua Antao might be upset, specifically explained:
"Tao'er! Grandpa wanted to hold a banquet for you last year, but you had to go to school in a hurry, and then we just didn't have time..."
Hua Antao didn't mind at all: "Grandpa, special circumstances require special handling! However, since we're going to have a banquet, Pear and I would like to invite two people."
"Who?"
Hua Lichu smiled mysteriously: "You'll find out later!"
