Chapter 116 Temperature Soars
Bai Tang and the others quickly drove back to their home, opened the gate, and drove the car inside.
Bai Tang went into the room first and took out everyone's beds from her spatial storage.
Then, a large table was placed in the living room, and Bai Tang took out some easily digestible food.
Invite them in for dinner, and they can rest later.
Grandpa Gu and the others went inside and sat down at the dining table in the living room.
During dinner, Grandpa Gu finally spoke up: "Your yard is quite big."
Gu Yanxu said, "I specifically chose to buy the larger ones, but I didn't expect that it still wouldn't be enough for you all when you came."
Let's eat first. Tangtang and I will go look at another apartment tomorrow.
They were finally able to sit down and have a proper meal.
After the meal, Bai Tang took out some everyday necessities.
Bai Tang said, "Lin Fan will take Grandpa to your room to rest. You can squeeze in with Xiao Yang for the time being."
Mom and Dad, please make do with resting in the RV for one night.
The toilet on the bus also has a shower area; the water tank is full.
Mother Gu said, "Tangtang, don't bother with all that. Go wash up and rest."
When everyone went to rest, Bai Tang also went to wash up.
That night, they were finally able to lie down in their own beds and get some sleep.
Everyone was exhausted, and although it was still very hot, they fell asleep quickly.
...
The next morning, Bai Tang woke up from the heat, covered in sweat.
Bai Tang sat up, and after regaining her senses, she realized that the temperature was indeed very hot.
My first thought was that the temperature had soared. At that moment, Gu Yanxu had already gotten up.
Bai Tang took another shower inside the space, but the moment she stepped out, she felt sweating again.
Hot weather is indeed annoying; you can add clothes when it's cold, but there's nothing you can do when it's hot.
Because there are too many people in the base, no air conditioning has been installed.
The base authorities are concerned about the base's power supply and therefore discourage the installation of air conditioning.
After leaving the space, Bai Tang couldn't help but feel grateful that they had made it back to the base in time the previous night.
Bai Tang walked out of the bedroom, and Grandpa Gu and the others were already in the living room.
Gu Yanxu walked over to Bai Tang and said, "Tangtang, the temperature has suddenly risen. Should we still go and buy a house for Grandpa and the others?"
Bai Tang said, "We should go. We can't just let them rest in the RV forever."
Let's go to the sales office before the sun comes up.
The temperature is just rising, and the sun hasn't come out yet, so it's still safe to go out.
Bai Tang took out a small electric scooter from her spatial storage, preparing to ride it with Gu Yanxu.
Lin Fan called out to them, "Sister-in-law, don't rush off, we haven't had breakfast yet."
Bai Tang left them some breakfast before heading out with Gu Yanxu.
The two rode electric scooters, wearing sun-protective clothing, on the roads of the base.
They arrived at the sales office shortly afterward. Gu Yanxu stopped the car, and the two went inside together.
A cool breeze blew by; it turned out they had installed a large air conditioner here.
Large air conditioners were installed in all the official offices at the base.
Therefore, many people gather here to cool off.
The electricity in these air-conditioned bases can barely keep up, but if the entire base were equipped with air conditioning, it would be impossible to keep up.
Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu quickly walked to the counter and said to the staff:
"Hello, we're looking for Duan Jia, are you here?"
The staff member said, "Duan Jia? He's at the counter across the street. Go look for him there."
The counter, which used to be one-sided, has been expanded to two sides, making it more convenient for them to handle their business.
Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu then walked towards the counter on the other side.
Duan Jia only noticed the two of them at this moment, and quickly stood up to ask:
"Sis, you're here again. Are you buying a house again this time?"
Bai Tang said, "That's right, we're going to buy another house."
Duan Jia asked, "So, who wants to buy the house? Should I go with you?"
Bai Tang said, "No need, this time we are buying a house for my parents and grandfather."
We're planning to buy another house near our home, a two-bedroom, one-living-room house would be fine.
Do you have any rooms available?
Duan Jia sat down, flipped through the property listings in his hand, and then said:
"What a coincidence! Sister, look, the family next door to your house has moved to an apartment building."
We've been entrusted to sell this courtyard house. Take a look at the plans, what do you think of this one?
Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu took the blueprints and looked at them. The house next door was designed as a two-bedroom, one-living room, two-bathroom house.
There's also a smaller courtyard, which looks quite nice.
Bai Tang said, "The main reason is that there are two bathrooms, so that my parents and grandfather won't feel awkward in their daily lives."
Gu Yanxu also said, "It does look quite good. Shall we order this?"
Bai Tang and Duan Jia said, "Could you show us the room?"
After all, you need to see a house in person to feel confident about buying it.
Duan Jia understood Bai Tang's meaning and then said, "Okay, are you going now? The temperature here is..."
Bai Tang said, "It's okay, let's go now. It might get even hotter if we wait any longer until the sun comes out."
Duan Jia took the keys to the house and came out.
He asked again, "How did you two get here? Would you like to take one of our cars?"
Bai Tang said, "The two of us came on electric scooters."
The road surface temperature is a bit high; I'm worried about my off-road vehicle's tires getting blown out.
Duan Jia said, "Then you two go ahead on your bikes."
I'll follow you in my company car; anyway, my house is right next to yours.
Bai Tang and Gu Yanxu put on the hoods of their sun-protective clothing and rode their electric scooter home again.
Duan Jia took the keys and drove the company car behind them.
The three of them arrived at their destination shortly after. Duan Jia parked the car and took out his keys to open the door.
Gu Yanxu and he went in first to check the quality of the house.
Then Bai Tang went home and called out, "Mom, Dad, Grandpa, let's go look at the house together."
Grandpa Gu came over and asked, "Granddaughter-in-law, where are we going to look at houses?"
Bai Tang smiled and said, "It's right next door, very close. Let's go."
Grandpa Gu and the others left their house and went into the neighboring courtyard.
Gu Yanxu saw his parents and grandfather arrive, and then asked:
"Mom and Dad, Grandpa, what do you think of this courtyard?"
If we think it's suitable, we'll go and pay the money to transfer the ownership.
Grandpa Gu, his mother, and his father looked around and said:
"This courtyard is nice, and it's close to your home, which is very convenient."
I wonder how many contribution points it will cost?
Duan Jia then stepped forward and said, "The original owner of this house entrusted us with a price of 31,000 yuan, and the lowest price is 30,000 yuan."
I can offer you a minimum price of 30,000 contribution points, because this house also has land allocated to it.
It's right next to the land of your other house, so the price isn't low.
If you feel the price isn't right, we can look at other options.
