At six o'clock in the afternoon, it was dusk, and there was not much sunlight in the sunny city full of high-rise buildings. The sky darkened quickly, and it was almost completely dark at six o'clock.

In area c, the street lamps on both sides of the corridor near the new real estate are lit up one after another, casting even and warm orange light, and the lights on the top floors of some buildings are also lit up, the lights are brilliant, bright like diamonds, more dazzling than street lamps There are too many, shining and charming like stars in the night, so that Yuan Guang and Shi Qian sitting on the side of the street looked up.

"It's so bright." Shi Qian sighed, "The lights on the top floors are so bright, I haven't seen such a bright light today during the day."

"That's natural." Yuan Guang held a bag of bread and a bottle of mineral water, and looked up at the top floors, "That's where the richest people in District C live, and the entire floor is usually for sale."

"One floor is more than 320 square meters, and it is generally more than 300 square meters if the equalization is removed." Yuan Guang said.

Shi Qian was speechless: "A suite of more than 320 square meters? According to the 25 square meters here, there are five people to live in, at least 52 people can be accommodated!"

"And the top floor is the most expensive floor, and the price of the first floor is 370,000 to 400,000." Yuan Guang read the information he inquired from the salesman, and suddenly paused when he said this, "How do you calculate it? , about 130 million per layer..."

Shi Qian, who was pestered by the salesman Xiaodong for an afternoon of popularizing [Sunshine Seedlings], subconsciously began to convert: "About one child here can mortgage 50 to 1 million, and if 130 million, there are almost 130 children..."

There can only be 52 people living in the house at most, but 130 children can be mortgaged in exchange for it. It is obviously impossible for some of the extra children to grow up and live in the house, because there is no room in the house. Their living area is reserved, and their names are not on the real estate certificate.

According to salesman Xiaodong, those children who have been loaned by Sunshine will be asked to leave their own houses by their parents when they grow up to be able to work, and they will work harder while repaying their parents’ loans in the next few decades. to save money to buy a house of their own.

In other words, they will live under the pressure of two mortgages for life.

Thinking of this, both Yuan Guang and Shi Qian couldn't help but feel a sense of suffocation, and they both fell silent.

Yuan Guang looked down at his 10 yuan package of discounted bread, and squeezed the greasy bag with his fingers: "No [Sunshine Loan], according to the average salary level of 4,500, if you want to live in a house on the top floor, it doesn't count as a loan." Interest, even if you don’t eat or drink..."

Shi Qian paused, and forced a few laughs: "It seems that you have to work for 2,000 years to live in a house of 300 square meters..."

Yuan Guang lowered his head, took a bite of the bread and chewed it. He didn't say a word. A piece of discounted bread filled his mouth with a sour taste that was about to expire as he bit it. .

"The bread is expired, don't eat it." Shi Qian hadn't eaten for a long time, and just took it.

Yuan Guang lowered his head: "But bread is a hot product in convenience stores, and I see that other people are queuing up to buy it."

"Because it's cheap." Shi Qian sighed softly, "We went late, the 8 yuan instant noodles were sold out, and a string of oden in the store cost 16 yuan, except for the 10 yuan discounted bread, the people in the store also I can't eat anything else."

Shi Qian cheered up and patted Yuan Guang's shoulder: "It's already smelly, so don't eat it. I lost a little bit of life after taking a bite. Go and throw it away."

Yuan Guang took a deep breath, and stood up on his knees with a hum. He turned his head and looked at the building like a steel forest in the dark night. Only the top floor exuded such a beautiful and soul-stirring light.

"The salesman said that the house on the top floor is the closest part of Sunshine City to Sunshine, so it has always been very easy to sell, and rich people are rushing to get it."

Yuan Guang whispered suddenly: "It's only after six o'clock, and it's as bright as the sun at night. There is no darkness in other places, only the top floor is bright. No wonder everyone wants to buy a house in the house."

Shi Qian walked to the trash can, she turned her head and followed Yuan Guang's gaze, with a complicated expression: "Because only the residents on the top floor go home from get off work at six o'clock, the lights should be turned on."

"The other floors are all ordinary residents. At this point, they should still be working overtime."

Yuan Guang was taken aback, and his thoughts quickly drifted: "Yes, they basically work all day long and don't take vacations..."

Just as he was talking, when Yuan Guang was about to throw the panel into the trash can together with Shi Qian, a person suddenly jumped out beside him, looking at the bread in Yuan Guang and Shi Qian's hands with bright eyes, which scared Yuan Guang and Shi Qian. Qian jumped.

The man whispered, "Can you give me the bread if you don't eat it?"

Yuan Guang took advantage of the dim light of the street lamp to see a well-dressed woman with light makeup in front of him, and couldn't help but suddenly raised his voice: "Xiaodong?!"

The woman standing next to the trash can in front of her was the one who just smiled and introduced them to the sale of real estate, Xiaodong.

Xiaodong didn't feel embarrassed at all, and stared straight at the bread they had already put into the trash can: "Can you give it to me if you don't want to eat it?"

Yuan Guang and Shi Qian looked at each other hesitantly, and after Shi Qian nodded, Yuan Guang handed over the bread and asked in puzzlement, "Xiaodong, you work in real estate sales, and your salary is not low, right? How come?" ..."

Yuan Guang's voice stopped, and he watched Xiaodong with mixed feelings as he swallowed a piece of bread in two gulps, and even took a sip of water.

... This thing has rotted to the point where he and Shi Qian ate their life points, and Xiaodong didn't react at all after eating it, as if he was used to this kind of food.

Xiaodong clapped his hands after eating, and showed a very standard business smile to Yuan Guang: "I'm just a salesman, similar to the front desk. There are people willing to come everywhere. I'm just lucky, good-looking and talkative. I was recruited." selected."

Yuan Guang asked: "Then would you mind telling us how much your monthly salary is?"

Xiaodong didn't mind at all: "Three thousand and five."

After Yuan Guang heard this, his expression was indescribable. This world can't even afford to sell a house... It's so magical.

Shi Qian asked: "Normally, after you buy a building, you can get a commission, right?"

"What is the commission?" Xiaodong was slightly confused.

After Shi Qian explained this to Xiaodong in this way, Xiaodong suddenly realized: "You are talking about this thing, this thing is eaten on behalf of the developer, and he can get 100% of it every time he sells a building. Twenty-seven commissions, we can't get any profit, we just work for agency developers."

Yuan Guang frowned and asked, "Agent developer?"

In the real world, he still understands that there are agency developers, but now that the land is directly in private hands, do we still need an agency?

Why don't you set the price as you can, and kill it as you can? Why do you still have the agency developer eat the difference in the middle.

"That's right, every new building has an agent developer." Xiaodong wiped his fingers while explaining, "The agent developer usually seems to be the top developer, that is, the offspring of the top five developers who control the location. "

"The five major developers will subcontract real estate for their descendants to develop as agents. The big developers never show up, and they always make real estate on behalf of the developer. For example, I know that the agent developer of this new real estate in District C is The grandson of one of the top five developers."

Xiaodong said: "The agency developer is mainly responsible for researching the housing purchase needs and desires of Sunshine City residents, as well as the affordable pricing, allocating the real estate area, and designing various apartment types suitable for residents to live in."

"Affordable pricing?! A suitable area for residents to live in?" Shi Qian couldn't hold back a swear word, "Crap, what the hell is it called affordable, suitable for living?!"

Yuan Guang's eyes moved, and he asked: "That means that the ownership of the new real estate is in the hands of this generation developer, right?"

Xiaodong nodded: "Yes."

"Do you know where he lives?" Yuan Guang asked cautiously, "Or, Xiaodong, do you know that the agent developer of the new building in District C behind us will show up tonight?"

Xiaodong turned his head and pointed to the brightest top floor in District C in the night: "No, that's where he lives."

"He will definitely show up tonight." Xiaodong pointed to Yuan Guang and then turned to look at him, "Because there is a new building tonight that hasn't opened for pricing yet, so we have to wait for him to come and set the price."

Yuan Guang repeated softly: "Pricing?"

Xiaodong said: "Yes, it is how much the house is per square meter. Now he should discuss with other agency developers on the top floor, and he will come over at about 7:30 to set the price of the new building."

seven thirty.

In the bustling and resplendent sales hall, the light of the crystal chandelier suddenly dimmed. Accompanied by the melodious sound of violin playing, a circle of hazy light hit the door. A man in loose sportswear, exercising Shoes, a middle-aged man with slightly wrinkled and flattened features appeared in the center of the light.

Everyone quieted down, respectfully and nervously giving up a straight path for this person to step into the hall, everyone smiled, and the people on both sides clasped their fists and bowed to greet each other, chatting leisurely. The halo on his body walked in together, until he reached the towering grandstand directly opposite the gate, turned around and bowed slightly to everyone:

"Good evening, everyone."

Xiaodong leaned into Shi Qian's ear and whispered: "He is the general agent and developer of District C, and we usually call him Director C."

Shi Qian and Yuan Guang looked at each other, feeling strange in their hearts.

The c director... looks like a normal person, and he is quite polite.

A so-called c Dong stood on a red wooden stand more than one meter above the ground, with a huge relief climbing painting hanging behind him. Where the people below can't see, the wooden boards on some paintings protrude out of the picture, like stairs, and there are numbers next to the wooden boards, sorted from 300,000, 305,000, all the way to 580,000.

Each board corresponds to a number, and a blue flag is placed on the board corresponding to [320,000], with four golden characters [Today's property market price] embroidered on the flag.

A director slowly picked up the small flag from the wooden board of [320,000]. Shi Qian heard the people around him take a deep breath together, and everyone looked at it without turning their eyes. with the little blue flag.

The child in the crowd whispered:

"Mom, you pinched my shoulder and it hurts."

Shi Qian looked over and found that it was the couple who consulted with them on the house this morning. The mother squatted down and hugged her child vigorously. Her eyes seemed to be filled with tears, and she patted the child's shoulder and whispered:

"I'm sorry, it's my mother who treated you badly and brought you to this kind of place."

The child held his mother's hand ignorantly, still smiling happily: "It's okay, Mom, we're here to buy a new home, there's nothing wrong with it."

The mother took a deep breath, buried her head in her child's shoulder, and hummed lightly.

The father next to him lowered his head and did not dare to look at one child. He held the hands of the other two children trembling.

Shi Qian withdrew her gaze, and she slowly clenched her hand tightly.

But the director did not put down the flag directly, but put the flag behind his back in a mysterious way, and looked at everyone with a friendly smile: "I believe that everyone came here for a family."

"Giving a warm home to everyone who comes to Sunshine City is the common pursuit of all of us, and housing prices are also the most concerned issue for everyone. For this reason, I discussed with the agent developers of several other districts for an entire afternoon. , I didn’t even drink my saliva, I just wanted to lower the house price of 320,000 per square meter.”

Everyone's eyes began to light up, and even Xiaodong excitedly put on his high heels and stood on tiptoe, trying to see the scene in the front row.

The ‌people couldn't help but started to ask, blushing with excitement: "C Director, are you really planning to lower the housing prices of new buildings?"

c Dong nodded with a smile, and he spread his hands helplessly: "Naturally, I have already lived on the top floor of Sunshine City, and I can earn more than one billion yuan a month. Is it meaningful for me to make money from you?"

"Can I earn more and buy a house on the sun?"

c Dong made such a joke that the nervous house buyers couldn't help laughing, and the atmosphere became relaxed involuntarily. Some people below have already started booing:

"C Dong Dashan!"

"In the future, I will work hard to work in Director C's company!"

The couple was also very excited, and they discussed in a low voice with their heads close to each other:

"If the drop is much lower, let's not use the children to pay for it. We can earn it back by working a few more jobs."

The man nodded in agreement: "A new real estate is hiring construction workers, and the wages are quite good. I'll move the bricks. If the house price drops to more than 200,000 yuan per level, you and I will do 20 jobs a day." Hours, maybe it can be evened out."

Xiaodong was so excited that she was about to cry, but Yuan Guang and Shi Qian felt that something was wrong the more they looked at each other. They looked at each other and found the same doubt in each other's eyes.

At that time, my conscience found out, why did I go so early?

c Dong raised his hands and pressed down, and laughed: "I personally really think that there is no need for house prices to rise any more. I still hope that everyone in Sunshine City can live in the penthouse suite in Sunshine City like me. .”

"So under my struggle." Director C slowly raised the flag from behind, and placed it under the grid of 300,000 at the bottom, "The price of this new building has dropped to 260,000 per level."

As soon as the words came out, the audience was silent for two seconds, and then everyone shouted excitedly like crazy.

"Oh my god! It's the house price two years ago!"

"Pinch me, am I dreaming?!"

The couple hugged the child tightly. The man breathed a sigh of relief, and the wife wept with joy. They squeezed into a small home and worked hard to raise three children. Now, there is love no matter what.

It has been delayed until now, and the house price has really risen a lot. The new real estate in District C opened, so I brought my children to ask about [Sunshine Seedlings].

How could he be willing to send the child he had raised for several years to the fire pit so simply.

"But." Director C frowned sadly, and the little blue flag in his hand slowly rose, "Although the housing prices have dropped, my actions made the agents in several other districts very dissatisfied, and they demanded— —”

c Dong raised his friendly and friendly face: "——The commission has been increased from 27% to 40%."

"So even though the house price is 260,000, plus a 40% commission, the total is—"

c Dong unhurriedly raised the small blue flag, placed it next to the wooden grid corresponding to [370,000], and sighed at everyone: "I tried my best, and the final house price is 370,000 yuan, everyone You won't blame Dong C, will you?"

Everyone stared blankly at the small blue flag placed on [37] Wan, Xiaodong staggered back two steps, suddenly covered his mouth and ran to the trash can beside him, and vomited palely, vomiting the contents of his stomach It was full of stale and moldy bread.

The couple fell to the ground in desperation, and hugged their three children tightly in a trance. They held the contract paper of [Sunshine Seedling] in their hands, their eyes lost all light, and they muttered to themselves. Yu: "Don't blame, don't blame C Dong..."
