Jiang Cheng pointed at the listings over a million and asked, "Do you have purchase restrictions here?"
Seeing that Jiang Cheng wasn't dissatisfied, Xiaoxia immediately breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
"Yes, there are purchase restrictions. For a first home, the down payment is 30%. For a second home, the down payment is 60%. This means for the 200-square-meter houses you're looking at, a first home would only require a down payment of around 1 million. However, if you wanted to buy a second home of the same 200 square meters, the down payment would be nearly 2 million."
Jiang Cheng had no issues with these policy questions.
He wanted to discuss payment. To exploit the Critical Hit Card, he needed to pay one million upfront each time, then pay the rest after the critical hit.
Jiang Cheng nodded and said to Xiaoxia, "I want to buy five units. Can I buy them here?"
Seeing that Jiang Cheng wanted to buy five houses at once, Xiaoxia's eyes widened in shock, and her round bottom even shifted restlessly.
She stammered, "Are... are you saying you want to buy all five?"
Jiang Cheng smiled and nodded, "Can you make it happen?"
"This... Mr. Jiang, currently there are purchase restrictions on real estate, and also lending restrictions. Buying five units might be..."
Jiang Cheng interrupted Xiaoxia, "If five units can be arranged, I can pay in full."
Hearing Jiang Cheng say this, her eyes not only widened further in shock, but her breathing also became somewhat rapid.
"Full payment!"
Although Xiaoxia found it hard to believe, as Jiang Cheng seemed to be around her age, and at this age, he could produce five million to buy houses in full.
Despite her internal doubts, she dared not voice them, even nodding, "To handle this, I'll need to speak with our supervisor. Also, I'll do my best to negotiate the price down for you."
"Alright, you can ask. If it can't be done, then I won't buy them and will look elsewhere."
This question immediately made Xiaoxia lose some confidence.
She was still a newcomer and not very confident.
However, there were exceptions to purchase restrictions. It seemed that as long as it was a special circumstance recognized by the local government or a special talent, they would not be affected by the restrictions and could purchase multiple properties.
"This... I'll give it a try."
Although she very much wanted the commission from these houses, this desire wasn't enough to boost her confidence.
"This... don't you need to go see them first?"
Jiang Cheng shook his head. Looking at so many units would take too much time.
"No need to see them. Just contact your boss directly."
Seeing Jiang Cheng's straightforwardness, Xiaoxia's dazed head immediately nodded like a chick pecking rice.
It was her first time meeting someone so casual about buying a house, looking as relaxed as if he were buying vegetables at a market.
Five 200-square-meter houses! The total price would be fifteen million. Has ten million become like pocket money for people in these big cities?
Jiang Cheng asked curiously, "Judging by your accent, you're not from around here, are you?"
Seeing Jiang Cheng ask this, Xiaoxia nodded shyly and, with a simple smile, said somewhat self-consciously, "I'm from Garze Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Tianfu."
Garze Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture? With his past life memories, Jiang Cheng remembered a net celebrity from that region. His skin was as dark as Xiaoxia's, but his eyes were incredibly clear. He appeared for only 7 seconds and instantly exploded on the internet. His return-to-innocence youthful appearance even changed the aesthetic standards for pale, thin male celebrities at the time.
However, although the scenery there was beautiful, it was almost like being isolated from the world, full of mountains and rivers, and the economy was not good. No wonder Xiaoxia came out to work at 19.
Jiang Cheng looked at the old, cracked-screen phone in Xiaoxia's hand.
"If I buy these houses, how much commission will you get?"
Xiaoxia was momentarily stunned by Jiang Cheng's question, but she still answered honestly.
"If you buy this house, our Lianjia's current fee structure is this: you need to pay us 2% of the transaction price, and the seller needs to pay us 1% of the transaction price. So the total agency fee is 90,000."
Jiang Cheng nodded, "I know that. What about you? How much does the referrer get?"
Xiaoxia didn't know why Jiang Cheng was asking this question. Did he think she was getting too much?
Although she hadn't been here long, she had seen some clients try to cut the agency fee.
Some agents even promised to refund half of their commission to clients to sell a house.
Xiaoxia nervously wrung her hands, "This... if it really goes through, and it's a full payment, I can probably get a commission of 15,000 per house."
Hearing this amount, Jiang Cheng raised an eyebrow, "How many houses does your branch sell in a month?"
"Hmm, last month was five, but those were all sold by senior employees, and most were smaller units, mostly 70 to 100 square meters."
After saying this, Xiaoxia seemed to feel it was inappropriate and added, "Although I've never sold a house before, I... I'm very grateful that you chose me today... I will do my best to help you complete this transaction."
Seeing her stammering and extremely nervous, Jiang Cheng smiled, "Go ahead and talk to your boss confidently. Here's what: if you can make it happen, I'll give you an additional 15,000 commission per house."
Hearing Jiang Cheng say this, Xiaoxia's eyes widened in shock, "You... are you serious? Why?" Xiaoxia, who was extremely lacking in self-confidence, naturally didn't think Jiang Cheng could be interested in her. After all, in her eyes, she was so common and ordinary, completely unmatched with a handsome guy like Jiang Cheng.
"I know what your question is. Don't worry, I'm not interested in you for now. But today is the most special day of my life, and I'm in a very good mood. I want to share my joy with someone, so I'll 'bestow' wealth upon you this once."
75,000 yuan, for rich people, is actually nothing. But for most families earning forty to fifty thousand a year, it was already a considerable sum. Yet, at the same age, even his classmates from ordinary families were positive, optimistic, and cheerful.
It was Jiang Cheng's first time meeting a girl from the mountains like Xiaoxia. He admitted that he was indeed a bit excited and carried away after just getting the Godly Tycoon System, just like those who win the lottery, eager to share the news with others. Realizing this thought, Jiang Cheng secretly told himself to guard against arrogance and complacency.
Seeing Jiang Cheng say this, Xiaoxia's eyes immediately welled up with tears of gratitude.
Only after coming to the big city did she feel the true gap between people, especially when she first took the train to Rong City.
She remembered wearing a half-worn cotton jacket, her travel provisions consisting of homemade flatbreads and a thermos that no longer kept warm.
But the child sitting across from her wore brand-new clothes, ate KFC burgers she had never tasted, and drank milk tea she had never had in over ten years.
That was the first time in her life she felt the gap between people was like a chasm, and how tiny she was in this city.
Once here, she could barely find a good job due to her lack of education.
After working as a dishwasher for several months, the restaurant owner took pity on her and, through connections, introduced her to a job at this real estate agency.
To save money, she always bought the cheapest lunchboxes, and she wouldn't even buy a cup of milk tea, which young people loved to drink.
She was often met with disdain and even mockery from other colleagues for her extremely frugal eating, clothing, and spending habits.
But she never expected that Jiang Cheng, a complete stranger, would extend a helping hand to her on their first meeting.
Although Xiaoxia really wanted to refuse, the blow of poverty left her speechless.
For someone who had been poor for too long, with a fortune that could turn her life around, why would she push it away?
Xiaoxia bit her lower lip and said gratefully to Jiang Cheng, "Mr. Jiang, thank you. I will do my best. Please have a seat for a moment. I'll go find the manager immediately and contact the owners of these properties."
Seeing Xiaoxia so emotional, Jiang Cheng didn't react much. He waved his hand, signaling her to hurry and get it done, then lowered his head to play on his phone.
She immediately turned and scurried towards the supervisor's office.
After reporting the matter to the supervisor, he was also shocked, but he quickly reacted and immediately pulled out his phone to contact the property owners with Xiaoxia.
At this moment, the male agent who heard the commotion showed deep regret in his eyes.
He didn't expect that by slacking off just this once, someone else would pick up the slack. The male agent even slapped himself several times in regret.
You know, even for houses costing hundreds of thousands, most people still need loans, let alone fifteen million.
He covered his somewhat swollen and aching face and looked at his phone.
Damn, he spent a hundred yuan just for this photo, and it looked even worse than an abalone. He felt like smashing his phone.
If only he had known, he should have gotten up to greet Jiang Cheng. Maybe now those tens of thousands in commission would have been his.
If he had tens of thousands, would he still need to look at it through his phone...?
