Pamper Eighties

Since Brother Rui chose to say it, he has already thought of an excuse and analyzed it very seriously: "Grandpa, look at so many people on this street, they are all from other places, Shanghai is so good, everyone can see it. Come out, they come to Shanghai, and maybe they will call everyone from their hometown, wow, in the future, there will be more and more people in Shanghai, and the houses here will be worth more."

The old man Zhang said disapprovingly: "What nonsense, they won't go back to their hometown to build a house when they make money, why should they buy it in Shanghai."

This is true, Mrs. Zhang has an opinion, she retorted: "If I can make money in Shanghai, why would I go back to my hometown, but not everyone has a hometown like Taoyuan Village, what can they do when they stay in their hometown? If you want to buy a house, you are also buying it in Shanghai, don’t you think?”

Or to say that women are naturally better at housekeeping than men. Old man Zhang didn't think it was a big deal, but his wife and daughter-in-law felt that the house was very important, especially the house in Shanghai. Even the old Feng family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law agreed.

Mrs. Feng said insightfully: "I went to Guangzhou and Shenzhen before, and the places I have seen are not as developed as Shanghai. If we hadn't lived in Taoyuan Village for a long time, it would be good to buy a house in Shanghai. Enjoy."

Old man Feng also thought about it, his eyes swept across the boats coming and going up and down the Huangpu River, and he said slowly: "Where there is water, there is wealth, and there are still a few places in China like Shanghai, here Buy a house, I can see it."

Mengmeng has been listening to them obediently, but at this time she finally understood, clapped her little hands and said, "Okay, let's buy a house in Shanghai, can we come and play more often?"

"Hahaha, you little doll knows how to play." The old man Feng looked at her kindly, firming up his opinion and said, "Mengmeng is right, we don't think about ourselves, but also for the dolls. Think about it, if they have a house in Shanghai, they will be able to have multiple paths when they grow up, so let’s just do it, we can buy a house in Shanghai.”

Both families have decided to buy a house, but where to buy the house is another worry.

Zhang Guangming thought about it and then suggested: "We passed the steel factory a few days ago. Isn't there a lot of houses for sale there? I don't think the price is too expensive. You can buy a house for tens of thousands of yuan."

His mother, Mrs. Zhang immediately said with disgust: "No, living in a building is not down-to-earth, and there are still steel factory workers around. People come and go all day long, how can one day be clean? If you want me to say, it's better to be Living in that foreigner's villa, with a beautiful big house and a big yard, can be called a spacious and comfortable place."

These days, Mrs. Zhang goes out with them every day, and often sees those large foreign villas, and she has long been jealous.

Hearing her reminder, Mrs. Feng was also very moved, and she said brightly, "We live in a big house in the country, we can't come to this city, but we live in a worse place, that's still here. What do you do when you buy a house, buy a big house if you want to buy it."

"Okay, then buy a big house." The men of the two families gave in. Although they were responsible for making money, the mother-in-law at home had the final say. They said that if they wanted to buy a big house, then buy a big house.

After making a decision, they began to inquire around, and finally heard from Xiao Chen of the securities firm that if they wanted a large villa, they needed an intermediary, and it was not so easy to buy.

Xiao Chen felt that these people were really able to toss, and tried to persuade them: "Mr. and Mrs., there are a lot of houses in Shanghai, but that is not something ordinary people can buy. Many of them are assigned to leaders by units, like our family. Flat-headed people, the whole family is still crammed into a small house, you want to buy a house, I suggest you buy a building, water, electricity and gas are all connected, and it is very convenient to go out."

Old man Feng patted his arm and said, "Thank you, Xiao Chen, we don't like buildings, we like big yards. The intermediary you mentioned is called Xu Kai, right? We'll go to him right now and wait for us to buy a house. , come back and invite you to dinner."

The two families said goodbye to Xiao Chen and went to find Xu Kai according to the address he gave. They found him after going around. It turned out to be in a small alley in an alley. The signboard of "Intermediary" looks very deserted.

Xu Kai is also a young man. After listening to them explain his intention, he said with some embarrassment: "You were introduced by my good brother, and I will not lie to you. Good houses are in the hands of the Housing Authority, and ordinary people want to buy them. I can’t buy it either, it’s all allocated, and normal people can’t afford to live in a big house.”

Feng Yimin is also a man in the officialdom, so he gave him an idea and said, "Xiao Xu, there are so many houses in the housing management bureau's hands, there must be some vacant useless, if you have a way, help us to inquire , if it happens, we can pay the housing bureau in US dollars, now you Shanghai, aren't you short of US dollars?"

The reason why Feng Yimin dared to say this is also because he inquired ahead of time. Now that he can buy a house in Shanghai with foreign currency, he can even keep a household registration. He does not believe that with US dollars, he cannot buy a good house in Shanghai.

Sure enough, Xu Kai said very unexpectedly: "Are you overseas Chinese? It's easier if you are overseas Chinese..."

The old man Zhang interrupted him and said, "We are not overseas Chinese, so don't worry about who they are. In short, we have US dollars in our hands, which are all made clean. First, tell me, do you have any connections?"

Xiao Xu was taken aback by their arrogance, and his heart suddenly fell into a struggle. He is an intermediary business, which is not popular in Shanghai now, and there are no customers coming to him at all. Finally, a group of powerful customers came. Of course he had to hold on tight.

After he figured it out, Xiao Xu gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I've been doing this for a long time. My cousin-in-law and his father work in the housing management bureau. I'll find him when I get back. As long as there is a house, I will definitely help you. Let's talk."

Xiao Xu took out the spirit of twelve points and went to his relatives on the same day. Unexpectedly, the result was exceptionally smooth. As soon as his cousin-in-law's father heard that he could pay US dollars, he immediately reported the news to the leader.

These days, there is a shortage of foreign exchange in the whole country. Whoever can get foreign exchange is a powerful person. Then the leaders will make a decision immediately. Isn't it just to buy a garden house? They don't have anything in the housing management bureau, and they have the most houses. How about it? Can get them a few.

The leader, Dashui Ikki, made this happen. He also carefully allocated two sets of adjacent large houses to the guests according to the requirements of the guests.

The location of the bungalow is also very good. It is at the junction of Huangpu District and Jing'an District. It is a quiet place in the middle of the hustle and bustle. It not only has a single courtyard, but also has a beautiful large garden. I heard that it was the private residence of foreign officials in the past.

The Feng family and Zhang family came here to visit, and the more they looked, the more they liked it. Such a spacious and beautiful big house sells for 50,000 US dollars, which is not expensive. They just bought some special products and earned the money back in minutes. .

Xiao Xusheng was afraid that they would not buy it, so he introduced himself very diligently: "The two western-style buildings are well maintained. They were allocated to the leaders before, and the furniture and appliances used in them are the best. There are bathtubs, all imported goods, unlike some houses that look gloomy when no one lives in them, the houses here have always been occupied, and even the flowers and plants in the garden are very spirited.”

I have to say that this bungalow is indeed very stylish. It has a full set of European-style furniture. The stairs and cabinets are all solid wood. Even the wooden boards that protect the walls seem to exude a classical atmosphere. A photo, it is more like a gorgeous palace.

The three little babies of the Feng family came here, and their mouths were already "wow wow wow", only Brother Rui was relatively calm, but also smiled very satisfied.

If the dolls are satisfied, the adults will naturally be satisfied too. Isn't it just $50,000, which is a drizzle for the two families, and they decided on the spot to buy a house.

Xiao Xu was so happy that he nodded his head and said, "The leaders of the housing management bureau said, if you can pay today, they will be able to give you a certificate today, the real estate certificate and land certificate, and they will give you the green light. Go through the formalities at one time, do you want to pay now?"

The old lady Feng said happily: "That's good, you people in Shanghai are fast in doing things, no wonder you can make so much money, I have all the US dollars with me, let's go through the formalities now."

When they walked out of the door of the Housing Authority and stroked the two freshly released certificates, the two families laughed, and this was their own house.

Back in the bungalow, the big guy only had the time to go shopping carefully, and found that the house was worth buying, and he didn't even need to re-buy his belongings. , The two families acted separately, one went to buy things, the other went to retire the hotel room, and moved to a new house overnight.

Not to mention, living in this grand bungalow is just different. It is quiet and without any noise. When they get up in the morning, they can see the large garden in the yard when they open the window. It is a fairy-like day.

Old man Zhang, who was originally against it, has now realized the benefits of a large villa, no longer complained, and even said with interest: "Shanghai's house is really good, there are opportunities in the future, let's do more Buy a few."

Brother Rui took the opportunity to give his grandpa a suggestion: "Grandpa, this is not easy, there are so many new buildings in Shanghai, our family has so much money, buying a few buildings and renting them out, that's money. what."

The old man glared at him and said, "You bastard, why is your heart so wild, we don't often live in Shanghai, who will take care of buying so many houses, how can you be at ease without someone watching? "

Brother Rui was not convinced, looked at Mengmeng's grandmother and said, "Grandma Feng, tell me about my grandfather, there are so many benefits to buying a house in Shanghai, why not buy it."

But this time, Mrs. Feng didn't support him either, and she helped the old Zhang family to persuade Brother Rui, "We have already bought this house, we can just come and live there when we have time. What are you doing with buying so much? There are only so many people in the family, and I have to live until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse, anyway, I don’t plan to buy it again.”

Brother Rui looked at the adults around him and found that they all had the same opinion. He was very sad. Why didn't these people listen to him? In the next few decades, only the house will be the most valuable asset. where they regret.

For the first time, Brother Rui was worried about his age. He didn't have any money, and he couldn't do anything he wanted. Alas, he had to be rich himself.
