Chapter 1297 1281. A little less housing (25)
This is the residents' request to control housing prices. Wang Bo coughed and said, "I think you can see that I have not flipped houses, and no one has come here to speculate. The changes in housing prices are normal."
Indeed, Sunset Town has not been targeted by real estate speculators. This is also related to the control of the New Zealand government, which strictly controls the phenomenon of real estate speculation.
Someone said helplessly: "But the mayor, our price has jumped too much. Starting from the next year, the price has almost doubled. We have no time to buy a house, and the house price has become like this."
"Mayor, obviously the number of houses in Sunset Town is not enough, you have to let go of the land sales authority, we can only build houses after buying land."
"It's okay to build more houses. It's obvious that the supply is less than the demand, far less!"
The question hits the mark.
Compared with the population growth of Sunset Town, the number of houses grows relatively slowly.
The reason is that Wang Bo is not willing to sell the house, because New Zealand implements the policy of permanent land rights, that is to say, as long as you buy a house, the land below will belong to the owner forever.
The land in Sunset Town is in his hands, but if the town wants to develop, it must have residents, and if there are residents, there must be residents, so he has to sell the land outside.
In this regard, he has a strong sense of small farmers. The land is in his pocket, and he is not willing to take it out. Of course, he has been arranging for Porter to build a residential area, but the population growth rate is too fast.
Seeing the heated discussion below, Wang Bo coughed again.
So someone asked concerned: "Mayor, do you have bronchitis? Why don't you take some medicine first?"
Wang Bo picked up the water glass and said: "I can just drink some water. As for the problem you reported, my secretary will record it, and I will find a way to solve it in the next month."
The biggest question in the questioning session was that some people reported that there were thieves in Sunset Town, who specifically stole the property of the elderly.
As soon as the questioning session was over, Wang Bo called Uncle Bing to him and said, "Arrange a few more people to watch the surveillance. There have been thieves in and out recently, kill them."
Uncle Bing nodded and said, "Okay, but the number of reported crimes hasn't changed recently, so I don't think it's a big problem."
In comparison, the problem of housing and housing is a big problem.
In addition, there is another thing, that is, the first batch of building block houses built in Sunset Town are almost due for replacement.
Residential areas are easy to say, New Zealanders are good at building new houses on land, but commercial areas, that is, the center of town, are difficult because businesses don't want to stop working.
There are too many tourists in Sunset Town, and it would be hard for my wallet to stop working every day.
In the new week after the questioning meeting, Wang Bo had to hold a morning meeting to gather a group of confidantes, and then Elizabeth sent information to find a solution.
Atulu said in surprise: "With so many houses in Sunset Town, the supply is still in short supply?"
"That's right, aren't houses even built on the sand dunes? There are also floating houses on the lake that are under construction."
"The model house of the floating house is out, haven't you seen it? It's so exciting, I bet it will attract a lot of people in the future."
"Yeah, I took my wife to see it once, and she was conquered. This prodigal bitch wants me to buy one, but I still need to buy it? The boss will definitely give it to me, right?"
Seeing that the topic went off track, Lao Wang waved his hand and slapped the table angrily: "Get out, give me a fart, be serious, if you talk like this again, I will give you a clock."
"Send the clock? Boss, why?" Atulu asked in a daze.
Wang Bo had no choice but to say it again in Chinese: "Send off, I will send you on horseback to meet your ancestors and go to heaven, understand?!"
Seeing him get angry, a group of people finally became honest.
Atulu said with a smile: "In fact, it is very simple to solve this problem. Like us Maori, it would be better to build a wooden hut? You can't live in a tent."
Hani shook his head and said, "It's impossible. Except for you Maori, who would want to live like this? Is that a home? To be honest, our kennel is more decent than your Maori thatched cottage."
Atulu got angry: "Dude, you are insulting us!"
Wang Bo slapped the table hard: "Hani Atulu, you two get out of the way and stand in the corner! Hurry up!"
The two were dumbfounded, and said in unison: "Boss, please calm down."
"Go and stand!" Wang Bo was really angry.
Hani quickly raised his hand and said, "Boss, Atulu is actually right, this problem is very simple, BACH, BACH, use BACH to solve it!"
"What is BACH?" Wang Bo asked in amazement.
Elizabeth next to him explained: "A slang term, New Zealand slang, it is the abbreviation of BachelorPad (bachelor), strictly speaking, it means going to a seaside holiday home to enjoy life, but it is also used to represent a holiday home."
Wang Bo lost his temper because of the crowd's popularity: "Speak less slang, I'm not like you. I grew up in New Zealand, can I understand these slang words you say?"
New Zealand has a lot of slang, which is not seen in formal occasions and textbooks.
For example, have-a-good-one, which is often said by people, literally means "a good thing happened", but it is actually not the case.
In New Zealand, this saying is mostly used by people who don't know or understand well. People who say this are just "talking about it." As for whether the other party is good or bad, people don't care at all.
There are also some Chinese-made slang words, such as poor white. Wang Bo was confused when he heard it for the first time. It was Charlie who explained it to him, saying that the Chinese call poor white people who are poor but still look down on yellow people.
Haney further explained: "Nominally, it specifically refers to those small houses that are small in size, used for vacation, located by the scenic lake or seaside, but in fact it also represents a kind of house now, that is, the kind of house that is very beautiful. Simple, you know? A combination of wood and steel, a house that’s cruder than a house of blocks but stronger and more durable.”
Wang Bo became interested, and he asked, "Is there a house that is simpler but more durable than a building block house?"
Charlie smiled bitterly: "There are some, such as your Chinese color steel tile houses."
Wang Bo shook his head and said, "That won't work. If it weren't for being forced to do nothing, who would want to live in a tile-roofed house made of painted steel?"
Charlie said: "Unfortunately, BACH is a color steel tile house, but it is much more beautiful. It has decoration, so it can be regarded as a solid version of the building block house."
Elizabeth made an inquiry on the computer, and then pushed it over to show Wang Bo.
These houses on the computer are relatively small, and the surrounding environment is very good. They are either located on the mountain, or on the reef, and some are even located on the big tree.
The house is small but well decorated, and the material of color steel tiles cannot be seen from the outside. Wang Bo learned more and found that what Charlie said was right. The main material of this house is really color steel tiles!
