Chapter 35: Family Matters (5)

(5) Mr. Pei loves to line up

Mr. Pei saw a long queue on the street, and as long as he had time, he would line up indiscriminately. So much so that he was more tired on weekends than at work.

Last Sunday, I queued for an hour, got a number first, then went to a nearby bank to rest for two hours, and then went to wait for half an hour, and the result was a mobile phone number, 60 yuan to buy a number, and 110 yuan to charge the phone bill. So he bought one for his son. Because if you don't buy it, you'll waste a few hours in vain!

He got this problem with queuing in 2005.

At that time, he queued up and paid a deposit of 3,000 yuan to buy a small shop in the last small commodity wholesale city in the first ring road.

After several rounds of tossing and turning to choose a shop to sign a contract, the developer changed his mind and wanted to increase the price, according to the location, the price increase was different, and the highest is said to have doubled.

Because there is a contract in hand, the investors do not agree, the developer breaks the contract to get back, the most common trick is to come to a manager who is said to be in charge, apologize very politely, answer, and then say that he is new to see the contract, and after reading it, ask the secretary to take it to copy.

If you don't know, it won't be the original contract if you take it again, and you won't be able to win the lawsuit.

I stopped it right away, saying I was going to make a copy to him myself.

After that, I didn't see any leaders.

The clerk whispered to me: Hurry up and get your 3,000 yuan and leave, the developer is bankrupt, and your money will be wasted in the future!

One day I received a phone call saying that more than a dozen investors had organized themselves and were going to go to a certain place to report the situation, and asked me to rush over and make up the numbers.

As a result, they drove to the venue of the two sessions, ready to display a banner in white and black to petition!

I stopped it immediately, I said I still have to go home to pick up the kids from school, don't hurt me. I squatted on the curb in the cold wind and wrote a letter to Mayor Wang Qishan.

I started with "Respected Deputy Wang", and everyone thought it was strange, didn't I just report the situation to the people's representatives?

In the end, everyone said let's try it first! So they went to print and sign it, and asked the armed police standing guard to hand it in.

After a few days, the notice went to the meeting, revised the plan of price increase, and if you didn't buy it, you would return the deposit twice.

It is said that the position chosen by Mr. Pei is not by the human elevator but by the freight elevator, which is the most partial, not only did not increase the price but reduced the price. But I didn't dare to deal with this kind of unit anymore, so I returned the contract and received 6,000 yuan.

Since then, Mr. Pei has fallen into the problem of queuing, and he always wants to pick a cheap 3,000 yuan one day!

I don't know where he will go to line up to shop this week?

I always suspect that the bookcase on one wall of the house is wrong, which weighs on his wealth, or why he always likes to buy things, and always says, "Look at it in the future, whether my things are worth or your stocks!"

So far, he has only a few limited edition philatelic albums that will surely increase in value, and the rest, alas, will be the safe, because the price of steel has risen.
