Gu Jinlin stood in the house for a long time. Then he took a deep breath and ran downstairs to a little store nearby and bought some cleaning things, then brought them upstairs.
Besides furniture, everything in the house was in good order, and there was both water and electricity. He wet the mop and then mopped the entire house.
There was so much dust on the floor; he must clean all of it.
After he had cleaned the floor, he proceeded to clean the balcony in the kitchen and the windows. Now it looked much better.
He did a simple clean-up, then immediately left for the furniture center.
They thought that with such a nice house, they might as well find someone to make the furniture. It might be a bit more expensive, but the important thing was that it would look nice, and they would be comfortable living there. It would also look better when they had visitors.
But now, Gu Jinlin thought he would go and look around the furniture center. If there were any ready-made pieces, he would just buy that.
He walked around and chose the classiest store. He spotted many nice items. Some pieces of furniture were in the Western style and very beautiful.
Gu Jinlin noticed that many pieces were sold in sets and looked even classier, so he just purchased them directly.
He wanted his parents’ house to look classy. His parents were getting older, and they should have nice things to enjoy.
For the two children, he chose furniture that looked more modern and Western-styled. Because the house was large and there were two small rooms next to each other, Gu Jinlin thought that he would give the boys those rooms. He bought each of them a bed and a study table. There was also a wardrobe that belonged to the same set, so he bought that too. If it was not enough, he could buy more later.
As for himself and Gu Jinxuan, he chose two fairly nice looking styles and placed an order for them.
Then he ordered a coffee table and sofa set for the living room.
Gu Jinlin placed his orders so swiftly that the salesperson was stunned. These were all high-quality goods, and very costly! This was the first time she had seen someone buy furniture so fast. He must be very rich!
“All right, I’ll take all these. Find someone to send it over. I want it by today. This is the address. Send it here, and I’ll wait at home for you. I want them urgently. Can you send them over immediately?”
“Sure, sure, don’t worry. We’ll arrange someone to deliver it now.”
The salesgirl was very attentive. She was even more excited when she saw Gu Jinlin’s delivery address!
My God, this was a high-class district near Beijing University! People who lived there were no ordinary people!
“That will be 102,316 yuan in total. I’ll round it off to 102,000 yuan for you. We’ll also give you two shoe racks. Here they are. Do they look all right to you?”
Gu Jinlin had been so decisive that he did not even haggle, so the store gave him a discount.
In those times, 10,000 yuan was a massive sum. They usually took a long time to sell 10,000 yuan worth of goods!
Gu Jinlin glanced at the shoe racks. They were not too bad.
He had not thought of buying shoe racks, so he nodded and said, “Sure, I’ll take them. Thanks!”
The salesperson smiled broadly when she saw that she had pleased him.
This person must be from a family who had come to the capital to work. He must have a short timeframe, which was why he had bought so much at once!
Perhaps they were just moving into a house assigned by a work unit. It was clear from the furniture that he had bought that he was only buying the basics. He had not bought the smaller items!
He would certainly need to buy other things in the future. If they left a good impression, he might continue to do business with them!
Gu Jinlin paid decisively, then went to buy a fridge, a color television and a washing machine. Once again, he requested that they send the items immediately.. Then he went and bought a huge pile of pots, bowls, ladles and basins.
