Chapter 1860 A Huge Amount of Money to Buy a House
After setting foot on the land of Shanghai and Hainan again, Lizhi felt that it was a bit rustic.
It's a lot worse than Xiangjiang, and even worse than Los Angeles in the United States.
New York……
Needless to say, New York is not qualified to compare.
Lizhi felt that she had seen the world, and her man was still the richest man in the world, but when she arrived in New York, she felt really shocked.
That kind of prosperity, that rushing rhythm, that bustling industrial scene, that kind of feeling that you can see countless brightly lit high-rise buildings from a high-rise building at night is definitely not something that can be felt by imagination.
It's just that the rustic appearance and buildings are just that. After taking the car back to her grandparents' house, Lizhi felt very happy.
People all over the world, no matter how prosperous they are outside, if you ask them where their favorite place is, as long as they are not too pretentious, the answer will definitely be - home!
"Xiao Zhi is back?" Nai Nai looked at her beautiful granddaughter, with a smile on her wrinkled face, as if she couldn't get enough of it and said, "Hurry up and let Nai Nai take a look, yo, she's beautiful, too. You’ve lost weight, and that’s not good!”
"Mirror, gal, I'm not thin!" Lizhi also hugged her, full of nostalgia.
After her father went to Xiangjiang, Lizhi's visa was never approved, so she lived with her grandparents in the mainland for several years.
Although grandpa is a bit patriarchal, he is not harsh on himself, while grandma gives all her love to herself.
No matter what she wants, grandma will satisfy her, even if she has to spend her little private money, she will not hesitate.
This made teenage Lizhi deeply feel what the care of her family was, rather than the pain of being left out.
Now that they haven't seen each other for more than three years, Nainai has aged a lot, which makes Lizhi feel inexplicably distressed.
"Haha, sit down and talk if you have something to say!" The grandfather next to him kept smiling, "Come on, you all sit down!"
"Sister, let me get your things for you!" Standing behind the two old men was Li Weidong, the son of the second uncle's family.
The old man's favorite is Li Weidong, but Li Weidong is only average in intelligence and other aspects. He is 20 years old this year, but he has not been admitted to college and only works in the shipbuilding factory where his second uncle works.
Li Weidong is at this age when she likes overseas things the most.
He had heard the legend about this beautiful cousin countless times.
Not only is she the leading star of Qilin Culture, starring in movies with first-class female stars such as Lin Qingxia and Zhao Yazhi, she also went to the United States last year and collaborated with major American stars in a movie, and she starred as the heroine!
Nowadays, mainlanders regard the United States as a paradise.
I heard that my cousin has become famous in the United States, how could Li Weidong not fawn over her?
If my cousin could promote herself and allow her to work in the United States, she would really be the envy of all her friends! ?
"Thanks!"
Lizhi didn't think too much, so she supported Nai Nai and walked into the house.
Compared to the clever flattery of the second brother, the third cousin, who was only eleven or twelve years old, just looked at Lizhi timidly and helplessly, and called her sister in a low voice.
Lizhi touched her little head and took out a piece of chocolate from her pocket, "Here, this is Swiss chocolate, eat it, it's very sweet."
After getting the chocolate, the third cousin's eyes lit up. She quickly thanked her and grabbed it in her hand, but she was reluctant to eat it.
Thinking that when I go to play with the children tomorrow, I will have good gifts to treat everyone, and the third cousin's face is full of smiles.
Li Yunren and He Lu naturally handed their luggage to the second and third brothers who ran over, and followed them in.
"Well, this house is quite nice, but it's a bit small."
Sitting on the sofa with her grandma, Lizhi looked around and smiled on her face.
"Not young anymore." The old man chuckled, "I have never lived in a building in my life. The best thing is to live in a tube building, where you have to share a toilet and a kitchen for cooking. I didn't expect that I can take care of my granddaughter now that I am getting old. Fu, I live in an upstairs building."
"Yes, these houses are all places we have spent a lot of effort to get from the Second Food Factory." The second uncle also nodded in agreement, "Each big house only has employees from the Second Food Factory. It costs 10,000 yuan, and the small house only costs 6,000 yuan. But when we buy these places, it costs 30,000 and 20,000 yuan, and we have to provide additional fund-raising funds... including decoration and furniture and appliances, it costs a full 180,000 yuan! "
When the second uncle mentioned the number 180,000, he was still amazed.
Today’s salary levels in Shanghai and Huajing are similar.
The standard wage in state-owned factories is 100 yuan. If you can earn 200 yuan, you must be a very skilled worker.
Calculated this way, a house worth RMB 10,000 would cost a couple four years of salary to buy without food or drink.
Those with poor conditions can only give up buying a big house and can only buy a small house worth 6,000 yuan, but this will take about four to five years to save.
The year before last, in 1983, Li Yunren called them and heard that funds were being raised to build houses on the land of the Second Food Factory next to the shipyard.
They are all new buildings with 7 floors. There are only two families on the first floor. They are very novel and foreign-style.
But because their funds were somewhat insufficient, the factory provided 200 houses for sale, hoping to earn a little more difference to compensate for the cost of building the houses.
Regarding this round of raising funds to build a house, I don’t know how many people borrowed money from everywhere and owed a lot of debt to be able to buy such a house.
But even so, half of them will automatically give up their qualifications.
But they are not at a disadvantage. Workers who have not bought a house have received some compensation, and this compensation comes from part of the money obtained from selling their quotas.
So everyone, whether they have raised funds to build a house or not, is basically satisfied.
In fact, this kind of fund-raising housing construction and unit welfare housing have different names, but their substantive meanings are not much different. The only difference lies in the amount of unit subsidies.
After Li Yunren and Lizhi talked about the conditions and price, Lizhi immediately decided to let them buy the house.
Because she heard Yin Jun say that in the future, the biggest development prospect for ordinary people in the mainland is to buy houses, especially houses in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
Now that she has the opportunity to buy a house, and it is for her grandparents, of course she is willing.
Lizhi thought about giving her grandparents one set, and then her second uncle, second aunt, and third uncle and third aunt also one set. This would also be a reward for them to stay in the country and take care of the elderly.
The second uncle and the others were of course very happy when they heard that they actually had their own tricks.
The second uncle and the third uncle are also honest people. They knew that the money was provided by the niece, so they also thought that since they were planning to buy three sets, they could prepare another set for the eldest brother and sister-in-law.
As a result, after further inquiry and giving a 1,000-yuan red envelope to the deputy director of the No. 2 Food Factory, he indeed agreed to give the Li family four houses, two of 70 square meters and two of 50 square meters.
But the price is not something he can decide and must be given according to regulations.
Of course, the two larger sets belong to the grandparents, grandma, and Li Yunren, while the second and third uncles belong to the smaller ones.
Lizhi originally said that everyone was the same and wanted a big house, but He Lu refused. She persuaded Lizhi to do what they wanted.
Lizhi disliked this shrewd stepmother when she was a child, but when she grew up, she realized that she was actually pretty good, especially to her father, so Lizhi accepted her in her heart.
So, I spent an extra 5,000 yuan to the department director and deputy director who were responsible for arranging the floors. My grandparents chose the first floor, opposite the second uncle's family, and above them on the second floor were Li Yunren and third uncle's family. , everyone lives together.
Even the decoration style is similar, but the electrical appliances and furniture are much better than others.
TVs, refrigerators, electric fans, washing machines... all of these are available, and even the furniture is specially made and delivered from the factory. The cost is high and generous.
When the Li family moved in, they attracted hundreds of people to watch.
Therefore, the current situation was finally formed.
If it weren’t for the money to buy a house, how could the second uncle’s family, the third uncle’s family, including grandpa, be so polite and even respectful to Lizhi?
How many people can afford this huge sum of 180,000 yuan in this era?
The only thing that made the old man regretful was that Lizhi had taken 200,000 yuan. When he heard that there was still 20,000 yuan left, she did not hesitate to ask her grandma to use it instead of giving it to him.
But remembering his previous attitude, the old man didn't have the nerve to fight for this control. Anyway, the money was used by the old woman for family use, and it was not used on outsiders.
Not only Li Zhi, but also Li Yunren and He Lu came to the new house for the first time. Looking at the decoration of their grandparents' home, they basically knew what their own house upstairs looked like.
Having had enough of living in a small house in Xiangjiang, they are extremely satisfied with a 70-square-meter house with three bedrooms, one living room, one kitchen and one bathroom, and no shared stalls.
Houses in this era were not only large in square footage, but the balconies and terraces were not counted in area. They added up to more than a dozen square meters, so even with three bedrooms and one living room, each room was not considered crowded.
When they heard Lizhi say "little", the couple did not refute.
Because now Lizhi has bought a total of 22 houses in Xiangjiang, two of which are villas. The couple now lives in one house with an area of about 300 square meters, which is indeed larger than the one here.
Their daughter can be so promising. As parents, those words of discipline are hard to say.
For example, after returning from the United States, Lizhi moved to another villa by herself. She also had several female bodyguards around her that ordinary people could not have.
The female bodyguards of the Qilin Group security team have always been assigned by Yin Jun to the girls close to him. Except for his little sisters and Le Yiling, most of the other women have close relationships with him. The tabloids in Xiangjiang simply Just call it "Jun Shao's Queen Group".
Now that Lizhi is married, what is their relationship?
Even when we returned to Shanghai this time, these female bodyguards actually came with us and are now living in a foreign hotel not far away.
As long as Lizhi goes out, they will definitely follow her.
Thinking of such female bodyguards protecting their daughter while walking on the street, the couple felt a little headache.
In Xiangjiang, such things are high-profile, let alone in the mainland with conservative folk customs.
But they didn't dare say that they didn't want their daughter to go out with bodyguards. Their daughter was so beautiful, and the mainland had been a bit chaotic in the past two years. If something went wrong, it would be a bad thing.
Come to think of it, no matter what kind of relationship his daughter has with Yin Jun, Yin Jun must not want to put his daughter in danger!
Therefore, after much deliberation, they did not stop the female bodyguards from following, they could only act as if there was no such thing.
