I was killed by domestic violence, and I went crazy with barrage

Chapter 166 Bargaining
Rent out the house...

Jiang Anning had never thought about this before.

First of all, I didn't expect it.

Secondly, she felt that home was a very private place, and if it was a house she had never lived in, she could just rent it out.

She had lived like this for a long time...

Jiang An Ning paused for a moment. Putting aside her past life, it seemed that she had not lived here for very long since her rebirth.

No matter how many memories and time there are, they are all from the past life.

only……

"Brother Guicheng really wants to rent my room?"

She pursed her lips and said, "Brother Guicheng should also know that since my parents passed away, many so-called relatives of my clan have come to my house and robbed my house."

"In the past few years, although I have saved up some money with my own hands, no one can guarantee that those people from the past will come knocking on my door again..."

Jiang Anning looked at Jiang Guicheng: "If Brother Guicheng rents my house, it's hard to say whether those people will come to harass me one day."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Guicheng indeed looked hesitant.

Lian Sui Ran also came over, revealing a hint of disapproval between his eyebrows.

Even Aunt Fang, who had always been very supportive of Jiang Anning, was silent at this moment.

then……

How ferociously those people broke into Jiang Anning's home, and how cruelly they warned them not to meddle in other people's business.

Aunt Fang and the others saw it all.

It has only been eight years since the incident, and recalling the scene at that time, several people can't help but feel a lingering fear.

Jiang Anning smiled and felt that their reaction was actually very normal.

People live their whole lives to live in peace. Who would want to get involved in some fierce lawsuits for no reason and disturb themselves from peace?

"Brother Guicheng's words today, I just take it as..."

Before he could even hear a few words or say them out loud, Jiang Guicheng seemed to have made up his mind and said firmly, "I'm not afraid!"

Then he frowned again and said in a flattering tone: "Of course, it would be even better if Sister An Ning could give me a discount on the rent."

Jiang Anning was surprised.

She didn't expect that even after talking to this point, Jiang Guicheng still insisted on renting her house.

She shifted her gaze slightly and looked at Sui Ran.

Renting a house is not a trivial matter after all, and it is not good to let the couple disagree and have conflicts.

She looked at Sui Ran, asking for his opinion with her eyes.

Sui Ran was still in a daze and hadn't come back to his senses.

It was not until she heard Jiang An Ning calling her that she exclaimed in surprise, turned her head, and stared at Jiang An Ning blankly.

"What does Sister Guicheng think? Do you want to rent my house like Brother Guicheng?"

Jiang Anning solemnly asked Sui Ran for his opinion.

Jiang Guicheng also turned his head to look at his wife, wanting to persuade her a few words and tell her more about the benefits of renting Jiang Anning's house.

Sui Ran has come back to his senses and smiled calmly: "If An Ning is willing, then of course it's fine."

After saying that, she walked over and took Aunt Fang's hand: "From now on, Aunt Fang and I will just be neighbors!"

How could she not be willing to move out of that big house and build her own little home?
Although I rent a house in the village, I will inevitably run into that big family, and it may even become the topic of conversation among others after dinner. People will say that they have really made a lot of money, but they don't live in their own home and run out to rent someone else's house.

But what does that matter?

After all, behind closed doors, they are just a small family, living their own lives!

"An Ning, how much do you think it would cost to rent it to us?"

Sui Ran looked a little conflicted: "You have such a nice house with such a big yard. The vegetable patch at the back is almost half an acre. I can't let you suffer any loss."

"But your brother Guicheng and I have just started our small business, so we are not very wealthy yet."

She wanted to bargain with the customer, but she was too embarrassed to say it out loud.

After all, An Ning has helped them a lot.

Jiang Guicheng also looked at Jiang Anning nervously, worried that the price was too high and they would not be able to afford it.

But we can't let Jiang Anning suffer a loss by renting the house to them at their own expense.

Jiang Anning was also really distressed.

She really didn't have any experience, so after struggling for a while, she came up with a number that she could accept: "How about 500 wen a month?"

The house is well built and spacious.

Just like Jiang Guicheng said, it has such a big yard. The space that can be used for growing vegetables alone is half an acre.

Not to mention, there is a large pigpen in the backyard, so we can catch ten pigs and raise them there.

And the chicken coop...

Although Jiang Anning doesn't have these things, when he is renovating the house, he makes sure to have everything.

But after all, the house is in the village.

Of course, it cannot compare with the houses in the town or even the county, where every inch of land is worth a lot of money and can be priced high.

Five hundred wen, she felt that it was more in line with her psychological expectations.

I just don’t know whether Sui Ran and Jiang Guicheng can accept it.

"Five hundred coins?"

Not to mention Sui Ran and Jiang Guicheng, even Aunt Fang next to them was shocked by the price.

Jiang Anning nervously asked, "Is it too expensive? How about... three hundred coins?"

She thought about it carefully again. Renting out the house was not her goal. What she wanted most was just someone to help her look after the house.

If Sui Ran and Jiang Guicheng were willing to spend money to rent her house, no matter what the purpose was, they could at least help her take care of the household.

From what Jiang Guicheng said, he wanted to make use of the vegetable garden in her backyard as well!

This is a good thing!
In the past, she didn't really farm, and she just planted some of her favorite foods in the vegetable garden.

They are rarely taken good care of, and most of them do not grow well.

Even the apricot tree that she particularly loved was left alone by her and could not produce many apricots.

It is nothing like the apricot trees in other people's homes, which are laden with fruits every year, so much so that the branches are bent down by the weight.

If Jiang Guicheng and Sui Ran can take care of the vegetable garden after moving in, it won't be a waste of the place.

It's better than when she came to plant, when the grass was lush and the bean sprouts were sparse, and the yard was full of weeds.

Not only does it take a lot of effort to weed every time, but you also have to sprinkle a lot of realgar in the backyard to prevent snakes from hiding there. If they crawl into the house and onto the kang, they will sneak up on you when no one is aware...

Just thinking about it, Jiang Anning felt like she was getting goosebumps all over her body.

However, three hundred coins was the lowest price she could accept. If it was any lower...

It would be better to let Sui Ran and Jiang Guicheng live there for free, and you can also get a favor.

Jiang Anning looked at the three people who were still in shock and became even more confused.

Just when I was thinking of saying, "Why don't we not talk about money? Talking about money hurts our feelings," Sui Ran was the first to recover from his shock. He was so moved that he said, "An Ning..."

Then, she said firmly, "No, this is absolutely not possible. An Ning, your brother Guicheng and I will never let you suffer such a big loss!"

"We really can't afford to spend a lot of money right now."

"For the time being, for the time being, we will pay you 800 wen per month as rent!"

Sui Ran made the decision right away: "After we have some time to make more profits, we will raise the price. At that time, we will also make up for the rent that we didn't pay you before!"

"what?"

Jiang Anning was stunned.

She was stunned for a long time before she finally understood Sui Ran's meaning.

It turns out that you don’t think five hundred coins are too much, but rather too little?
"Yes, sister An Ning, what I said just now was all nonsense. You can't take it seriously, otherwise I will be too ashamed to face others!"

Jiang Guicheng said with an embarrassed look on his face: "You see, your sister-in-law and I have been taken care of by you a lot. In fact, if it weren't for your help, our business would not be able to succeed. You are our great benefactor. How can we repay you with evil and continue to suck your blood and eat your flesh... Please don't take my nonsense seriously. Even if you want to take care of us and give us a discount, you can't give us such a low price."

Five hundred coins...

Even if they went out to rent an acre of land, the cost would be more than five hundred coins, not to mention that they had such a big house.

An Ning is really, really kind.

Jiang Guicheng felt a little ashamed for a moment. He was even worried that he had spoken too hastily and proactively about this matter, which might lead people to think it was profitable and take the opportunity to raise the price.

He thought that even if Jiang An Ning didn't ask for one or two taels of silver a month, he would at least ask for eight hundred coins.

It may even be much more than that...

After all, in addition to the house, kitchen, etc., Jiang Anning's home also has a large vegetable garden.

The vegetable garden alone is half an acre in size, not to mention there is a pigpen in the backyard.

This big pigpen is more than enough to raise seven or eight pigs for the New Year.

A house like this is worth it, let alone one tael of silver, even if it’s one tael and two, or one tael and five, it’s worth it!
That's because it's in their village, so the house can't be rented out for much.

If this house were to be moved to another place, it would be very expensive.

What a big place! Don’t you take a look?

Not to mention, in addition to the vegetable garden at the back of Jiang Anning's house, the front yard is also very large and spacious.

It's just that it hasn't been turned into a vegetable garden.

Most of Jiang Anning's front yard was paved with pebbles or blue bricks, and the rest was used to plant flowers.

There is also a convenient water well...

This is the first of its kind in their village!
If other families, including theirs, want to get water, they have to fetch water from the well shared by the village!

If you go a little later, you don’t know how long you will have to wait in line.

It's okay when you're not in a hurry, but it takes time and effort to fetch the water back.

But if you are in a hurry, the whole family has to wait, and if there is no water, you can’t cook!
How can a small businessman like him afford to wait?
That means we have to go to the village well to fetch water before dawn every time, or we have to wade through the darkness late at night to fill the water tank.

Otherwise, most of the day's work will be wasted.

Not to mention, they lived in that house together before. He would go to fill the water tank in the morning. Even if he didn't use much in the morning, when he came back in the evening... he didn't even need to wait until the evening, but when he came back at noon and needed water, the water in the tank would be guaranteed to be empty.

Even though the people at home don’t usually talk about it, in fact, who doesn’t have their own little tricks?

So many people live under the same roof, sharing the same kitchen, and there is only one water tank in the kitchen...naturally they would take advantage of whatever they can.

Anyway, during this period of time, the people at home saw him fetching water from dawn to dusk all day long. Even if they used up all the water and did not refill it, he would still fill the water tank again because he needed water. So everyone became lazy and slacked off, and was unwilling to fetch water.

In the past, every family had a water tank at home and took turns to fetch water from it every day.

Ever since he started setting up a stall to do business, the job of fetching water has become his job alone.

This might be one of the reasons why he wanted to move out and start his own business as soon as possible.

It was precisely because they took the initiative to borrow Jiang Anning's kitchen that they realized that cooking at Jiang Anning's house could save so much effort.

The firewood in Jiang Anning's house filled up two entire warehouses.

Even if they use it three times a day, it can last for three to five years without running out.

Not to mention there was such a huge pile of firewood outside her house.

It will be much more convenient to fetch water and drink water.

Since they borrowed Jiang Anning's kitchen, the couple have saved a lot of effort.

I can even get more sleep.

Otherwise, he would have to get up early before dawn every day to fetch water!

When he comes back, he can only take a short nap. After his wife finishes her work, it is time for him to get up and set up the stall.

So Jiang Anning only asked them for 500 Wen, which was really generous of him.

They all suspected themselves of being black-hearted because of their conscience.

I feel so sorry for that.

Even Aunt Fang couldn't help but advise: "Logically speaking, as an outsider, I shouldn't interfere in your family's affairs. I don't want to ruin the relationship between our three families. But, An Ning, even if you really want to help Sui Ran and his wife, you can't wrong yourself like this!"

"If you tell others the price of 500 wen, I'm afraid the villagers will think you're a sucker and a local rich man, and they'll come over to take advantage of you!"

Jiang Anning was stunned, as if she had just come to her senses: "I didn't wrong myself..."

She really thought that the price of five hundred wen was acceptable.

Within the range she could accept.

Even 300 wen is not bad...

Anyway, even if the house is not rented to Sui Ran and Jiang Guicheng, the house will remain empty.

If someone lives in the house and it adds some life to it, it won't deteriorate so quickly.

"Then it's settled!"

Sui Ran made a decision with a wave of his hand: "Just as I said, 800 Wen a month. When our business gets better and we have more money, we will give you a monthly allowance... um, 500 Wen!"

"what?"

Jiang Anning was stunned and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"no……"

Why is it that the more I bargain, the higher the price gets?
"This is a very good idea. I think we should do it this way." Jiang Guicheng also echoed his wife's words.

Even Aunt Fang couldn't help but say, "I think this is a good idea. It won't be a disadvantage for either you, An Ning, or Sui Ran and his wife."

"That's it!"

"Yes, that's it!"
