Chapter 6 Housing The next day, Zhang Qiyuan woke up groggily and saw that it was already past eight o'clock. There were only ten minutes left before they had to go to work. He got up hurriedly, dressed briefly, put on the suit he had prepared for work, and hurried downstairs. He was replying to comments yesterday. Some were from discussing the development prospects of Seoul New District with him, some were from asking about the surrounding communities and which community was better. Of course, there were also people who wanted to invite him to view houses on the weekend. He replied to them one by one. He also added the WeChat of two people who wanted to view houses. On the way to the company, he secretly looked at his post on Xiaohongshu again. The number of views has reached 5000, but the number of comments is not as high as before, and most of them are replies from agents. As soon as I arrived at the door, I met He Guixiang and Wang Yong riding the company's electric bike. "Hey, Xiao Zhang is dressed very formally today. What's going on? Are you going on a blind date?" Wang Yong couldn't help but teasing. He Guixiang, who was sitting in the back, stood up and took a glance. Her eyes lit up and she also teased, "You know what, when Xiao Zhang puts on this formal suit, he really looks like a business elite. Do you want Sister He to introduce you to a girlfriend?" "Uh……" Zhang Qiyuan was about to wave his hand and say no, when he heard Wang Yong chuckle and say, "Sister He, you're not trying to recommend yourself, are you, the divorced girlfriend with a kid?" "You want to die? No matter how many years older I am, I will be as old as his mother!" He Guixiang's face turned red, and she chased Wang Yong and hit him several times before she stopped. After the commotion, the three of them entered the store. Today was Friday, and no one had asked for leave. Except for Fu Qiang, a shareholder whom Zhang Qiyuan had never met, everyone else came.
After clocking in, everyone walked out of the store and stood in a row to prepare for the morning meeting. Xiong Wei glanced and shouted, "Good morning, everyone!" "it is good!" "very good!" "very good!" "The family will be better!" "come on! Come on!" Although he had been shouting this slogan for a few days, Zhang Qiyuan didn't dare to shout too loudly every time, as he always felt a little socially dead. "Today is Friday. Does anyone have any clients? Can we make an appointment this weekend?" Xiong Wei looked at everyone with a serious expression. As soon as these words were spoken, the scene fell silent. Xiong Wei frowned and was about to lose his temper. Seeing this, Zhang Qiyuan hurriedly said, "Manager Xiong, I may have to show a client at noon." Hearing this, everyone looked at Zhang Qiyuan in surprise. If anyone here said that someone had shown the property, they would all believe it. But they didn't quite believe that Zhang Qiyuan was the only one who had shown the property. After all, he was a complete newcomer and had only been on the job for a few days. He didn't have any connections yet, so how could he have shown the property? "Where do your customers come from?" Xiong Wei asked the question that everyone wanted to ask. "Didn't I go to the exhibition with Brother Wang yesterday? I heard from Brother Wang that one of his friends closed a deal on Xiaohongshu, so I also posted a post about buying a house on Xiaohongshu last night, and then this customer contacted me and said she wanted to see the house at noon today. She works at the Patent Office." Zhang Qiyuan said. Xiong Wei's eyes lit up and he immediately smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go with you to pick up the client at noon. By the way, have you found a house yet?" "There is only one house available for now." Zhang Qiyuan shook his head. "How can that be? What's your client's budget?" "The client only said that he wants a house over 90 square meters, and he knows this area very well. He has probably seen quite a few houses. His goal is very clear, he wants a house in Blue Sky International." Zhang Qiyuan replied. "Did you hear that? There are no customers for the 90-square-meter house in Blue Sky International. So we can look for other options. It would be fine if we can win." Xiong Wei said loudly. "If there is a house that can be found at a great bargain price, I can also ask my best friend's friends to come over." He Guixiang also said at this time.
Zhang Qiyuan's eyes moved. Was his house a bargain? But for now, he decided not to mention it. He would first look for some clients on Xiaohongshu. "See? Although the market conditions are not good now, as long as you work hard, you will still have clients. You old agents are not as good as the newcomer Xiao Zhang. Don't let Xiao Zhang place the first order in April, otherwise you will be embarrassed." Xiong Wei said to Wang Yong, Dong Hui and others. "Let's adjourn the meeting. Our task this morning is to visit all the houses with an area of more than 90 square meters in Blue Sky International to confirm whether they are for sale, the selling price, and how to view the house. If there is a high-quality house, we will edit the house number, price, and viewing method and send it to the store group." After the meeting, everyone returned to the store and began to revisit their own listings. Seeing this, Zhang Qiyuan quickly set his phone to silent mode. Sure enough, not long after, he received a call from someone marked as an agent. Fortunately, he had not prepared a business card during this period, nor had he given his phone number to anyone. He also kept in touch with several colleagues in the store through WeChat, otherwise they would have really discovered that he was the owner of Blue Sky International. After hanging up the phone, he received another call after a while and he continued to refuse. "Fuck, this owner is really annoying. He even refused to answer my two calls. I hope he can never eat four dishes in his life." Wang Yong, who was sitting in the front row, suddenly said angrily. Zhang Qiyuan: “…” "You are too gentle. If it doesn't work, put his phone number in the gay group and let those people find him." Huang Yi gave a naughty suggestion while checking the house. This is too cruel! Zhang Qiyuan quickly spoke up to stop them, saying, "I don't think it's necessary to be so harsh. The owner might just be busy, so he doesn't have time to answer the phone." “Forget it, this listing is probably useless.” Wang Yong shook his head, wrote a follow-up note for the unanswered call, and then continued to visit other listings. Soon, He Guixiang returned and found a house with a better value for money. "This apartment, 2 in Building 3202, Phase 97, is pretty good. It's 195 square meters, full of two rooms, on the second top floor, finely decorated for self-use, with a parking space, and the base price is 180 million." He Guixiang hung up the phone and immediately said to Zhang Qiyuan, "I've been to this apartment before. It was listed at over 15 million before. The decoration is OK, not too bad. The previous transaction price for the rough-finished apartment was million, which means the parking space and the decoration add up to . You can move in right away. If you want to see the apartment, you have to ask the neighbor next door for the key." Zhang Qiyuan nodded. The second phase is not adjacent to the highway, and there are only two high-rise buildings, which are the second top floors. The lighting and view are simply unbeatable. With this price plus the free parking space, it can indeed be regarded as a high-quality house. He quickly wrote down this house in his notebook. Soon He Guixiang found another good house. It is house 4-2-1402, Phase 97 of Blue Sky International, 175 square meters, fully unfinished, with a reserve price of 5 million, which is lower than the previous transaction price. In just one morning, all the people in the store made calls and only found two slightly better houses, and they were all made by Sister He. Zhang Qiyuan shook his head secretly in his heart. Although the market is not good and there are no customers, it shouldn't be like this. Opportunities always come to those who are prepared. If you don't organize your listings in advance, when customers come to you, there will be no listings for them to see. Fortunately, these two properties plus his own house are enough for the clients to look at at noon. Just at 11: in the morning, he received a WeChat message. "Are you free now?" The person who sent the message was 'Weiwei Yixiao' who was added on Xiaohongshu yesterday. (End of this chapter)
