Rebirth of Siheyuan starts in the 1980s

Chapter 443 Don’t worry if there are too many lice

After comforting and making arrangements for Ma Suqin, Cao Zhiqiang was ready to leave the hospital and go straight to the airport.

Although there were still a few hours before his flight took off, the flights at this time were actually not accurate, so it would never go wrong to go early.

In this era without personal computers and smartphones, there is no big difference between staying at home and going to the airport. They are both boring.

After all, there are a lot of newspapers, magazines, short stories, and snacks such as melon seeds and peanuts at the airport. It's actually quite good to wait there.

Of course, the main reason was that he had already checked out before coming to the hospital. At this time, he could not check in at the Jinling Hotel unless he went through the procedures again, which was not necessary.

Therefore, it is best to go to the airport early and wait.

However, as soon as Cao Zhiqiang walked out of Ma Suqin's ward, he met the female doctor Lu Xiaowei standing next to the nursing station.

This time Dr. Lu was not wearing a mask, so Cao Zhiqiang recognized him at a glance.

"Hey, Doctor Lu?" Cao Zhiqiang opened his mouth in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Indeed, Lu Xiaowei is a doctor in the emergency department, and she is on day shift. At this time, she should be on duty in the emergency room, and should not be in this high-level ward.

But if you want short-term investment or even loan speculation, then the real estate here is really not a good investment product, at least for now.

It can be said that 80% of self-employed people in the 1980s and 1990s made their fortunes by selling clothing and electronic products. The huge profits here were simply insane.

Those leaders can have one hundred and forty-six mistresses, so where am I? It’s drizzle!

But soon, Lu Xiaowei, who ran away a few steps, came back again.

One hundred thousand yuan, even if the two families split it equally, it would still be 50,000 yuan for a set. This price is actually much higher than the market price.

Because according to his memory, it seems that the houses here were later demolished and turned into large shopping malls, probably, it seemed, into a place called Oriental Mall.

Houses like this are a very common small business layout in Jinling City. They existed as early as the Republic of China and are very historical.

Lu Xiaowei sighed and asked again: "I want to say, do you really want to leave right away? Can't you stay a few more days?"

"Oh, that's right." Lu Xiaowei immediately smiled, "I was worried about patient Ma Suqin's condition, so I took the time to come over and take a look."

Anyway, I take a plane. It doesn’t take long to fly from the capital to Jinling City. It only takes a few hours.

For example, yesterday, Cao Zhiqiang spent his own money to purchase two courtyard houses with gated apartments along the street next to the Xinjiekou Department Store.

Lu Xiaowei pursed her lips and said: "My dear, if you are really capable, can you help me change my job?"

Even some residential houses along the street still have some traces of the war. It is said that these are the traces left by the Japs when they committed crimes in Jinling City.

Cao Zhiqiang said that if the two families sold it together, they would pay a total of 100,000, which they would divide among themselves privately.

Why do you always think about being demolished and compensated? Why do you never think about developing and demolishing by yourself?

When I make the plans in advance, all Gome and Suning will have to step aside for me in the future!

"Zhiqiang, Zhiqiang, I asked you something, why haven't you answered?"

So in Lu Xiaowei's view, when they walked back to the hospital together that night, and Cao Zhiqiang even held her hand during the process, it was actually acknowledgment of their romantic relationship.

Compared with future income, a hundred thousand yuan to buy a house is nothing.

Before the elevator renovation, this staircase was the main and only way up and down the stairs.

If it is slightly renovated, even if it only adds one floor, that guy will be really awesome Plus.

"I'm afraid this will be difficult." Cao Zhiqiang shook his head, "My current base camp is in the capital. If I'm here in Jinling, I'm afraid it will be difficult to come here often."

Preliminary calculations show that the combined actual area of ​​the two houses is more than 1,800 square meters. If the yard is included, it will be a full 3,000 square meters. This is only the area of ​​​​one floor.

In fact, the so-called safety stairs are the old stairs in the hospital.

It wasn't until the late 1990s that profits from clothing, shoes, hats, and electronic products plummeted, but that's a story for another day.

Apart from anything else, if you are running a brand store like Cao Zhiqiang now, it is a very good business.

Due to limited conditions, currently only the outpatient building and the senior cadre ward area are equipped with elevators, and there are no elevators in the general ward area.

Lu Xiaowei lowered her head and bit her lip, then played with the corner of her clothes and said, "Then, will you come here again in the future?"

"Wait!" Lu Xiaowei suddenly stopped Cao Zhiqiang.

As a result, the two families immediately changed their faces, worshiped Cao Zhiqiang as a god of wealth, and requested to go through the transfer of ownership immediately, for fear that Cao Zhiqiang would regret it.

Lu Xiaowei was about to speak, then turned to look at the middle-aged female nurse at the nurse station who was smiling and watching all this silently. Then she walked to Cao Zhiqiang in a few steps and whispered to Cao Zhiqiang: "This is not the place to talk. You and I

I come."

"This, this..." Cao Zhiqiang blinked, "This kind of thing needs to be considered in the long term."

The senior cadre ward where Cao Zhiqiang is currently located is one of the places where elevators are installed. Since the elevator has been installed, the original stairs are rarely used by people. After all, people in Congress are very lazy.

But she just showed up.

"Ah?" Cao Zhiqiang was stunned, "Be responsible, what is your responsibility?"

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang bought the house and rented it to a state-owned department store to be established later, and then opened a brand store in the form of a department store.

It seems that this place was later owned by Xinbai Group.

In fact, the house here was originally found by Li Youfu. He didn't want to buy it at first. He only wanted to rent it. Moreover, he wanted to rent the smaller and shabbier house next door. He didn't want to rent the better mature shops here.

.

"But I, I..." At this point, Lu Xiaowei stamped her foot, "You, do you have to let me explain it clearly?"

Because a brand store is actually a different type of store or small shopping mall. Thanks to the domestic situation at this time, the value that these small shopping malls in good locations can create is beyond what ordinary people can imagine.

Just like the self-employed businesses that started in this era, these two houses are also used for commercial and residential purposes, that is, the part along the street has been transformed into a facade house, and the inside is a courtyard house.

Anyway, I'm not married, so as long as the arrangements are made, this is a minor problem.

In the beginning, we will focus on selling clothing. Later, we may not be able to sell electrical appliances and the like.

Not to mention, if it is demolished in the future, it will be very developed.

Of course, this cabbage price is based on Cao Zhiqiang's point of view. For ordinary people, a house that easily costs 35,000 to 50,000 yuan is an astronomical figure.

In fact, for Cao Zhiqiang, those things were just casual things. What he really wanted to do when he stayed here was to contact the manufacturer and find a sales manager.

"Maybe." Cao Zhiqiang thought for a moment and said.

"Ah, that's it." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "Okay, I won't delay you anymore."

On the contrary, some local cities, such as coastal open cities and Jinling City, have more new things.

"Don't be nervous, Doctor Lu." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, "Although I'm going to the airport to wait for my flight soon, I'm not in a hurry. If you have anything to say, you can speak slowly."

So from this point of view, the business of selling clothing, shoes and hats in the 1980s was a real trendy business. During this period, as long as you were willing to endure hardships, pigs could fly. Whether you were wholesale or retail, you could make a lot of money.

Lu Xiaowei sighed again, and then asked: "By the way, you seem to have a lot of connections and energy in the capital, right?"

Yep, it’s just a Xinbai Group, they can do it, why can’t I?

Of course, at present, Cao Zhiqiang is not capable of engaging in such large-scale commercial real estate, but he will definitely be able to do so in the future.

If you have spare money, don't take out a loan, and make long-term investments, that's no problem.

In addition, Jinling is far away from the capital, so it seems good to have multiple outhouses.

In short, for a senior cadre ward with an elevator, the original stairwell is a place with relatively few people. In addition, it is transparent from top to bottom and has an unobstructed view. Any outsider can see and hear it, so here

Chatting is indeed more private and safe.

But then I thought, oh, I understand.

After all, this was considered a confession, and it was indeed a bit embarrassing for her.

In fact, originally the owners of these two stores did not want to sell, but Cao Zhiqiang gave too much.

Cao Zhiqiang shook his head: "Of course not. I still have a lot of things waiting for me in the capital, and I have to do it. I have been delaying it for a long time, and they have called to remind me. If I don't go back, there will be trouble there.

.”

The sudden question woke up Cao Zhiqiang who was outside Shenfeitian.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaowei was stunned and asked subconsciously: "What, you want to go to the airport to wait for the plane? You, you want to go back? Now?"

Unexpectedly, she misunderstood.

Cao Zhiqiang frowned: "You are doing well here, why do you want to go to Beijing Hospital? The People's Hospital here is also very powerful. Changing work at will may not be a good thing."

The reason is very simple. If nothing unexpected happens, domestic housing prices, even in places like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, have been sluggish and stagnant for a long time. It will be the late 1990s when the real estate market will become truly market-oriented and become dynamic.

"Will you come often?" Lu Xiaowei raised her head and asked.

Moreover, at this time, it only limits the size of self-employed businesses, but does not limit the number of properties owned. Of course, there is no property tax.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly: "Well, Xiaowei, no matter how capable I am, I can't control the medical system, so the transfer must be considered in the long term, but don't worry, it's actually quite good in Jinling.

Cao Zhiqiang stopped and turned around, looking at Lu Xiaowei doubtfully: "What's wrong, Dr. Lu? Is there anything else?"

"Help you relocate your work?" Cao Zhiqiang was stunned, "Where are you going?"

However, according to Cao Zhiqiang's estimation, these houses should not have much historical value or protection value.

Cao Zhiqiang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "Well, it's not bad. Many people are willing to give me face. Why, are you in trouble?"

And strictly speaking, Lu Xiaowei looks pretty good, after all, she and Ding Qiunan are printed in the same mold.

After saying that, Lu Xiaowei passed Cao Zhiqiang and walked to a place in the corridor first.

Moreover, the era when these small shopping malls begin to become popular is about to come. It seems that after 1984, self-employed people started to bloom everywhere. Consumer goods such as clothing, shoes and hats were even more popular in the late 1990s, and their profits could exceed half, and some even

The profit is several times higher, which is simply a money grab.

However, in 1981, the hospital underwent some modernization, and one of the measures was the installation of imported elevators.

You know, in 1983, a household worth ten thousand yuan was still synonymous with wealth and a symbol of the rich, so the value of thirty-five thousand yuan was quite impressive.

Anyway, most of their shops are filled with old neighbors and repeat customers. As long as you say hello to those people and buy a house nearby, it's not difficult.

But it would be more hurtful to explain at this time that I didn't have that intention.

The two courtyard houses are in a good location, just south of Xinjiekou, the center of Jinling City, and just a few steps away from the Xinjiekou Department Store.

Just like an elevator, this thing is no longer a rare thing in coastal cities such as Shanghai and Jinling City. On the contrary, in Beijing, except for a few foreign-related hotels that do not accept ordinary people, most places do not have elevators.

It doesn't matter, the pattern must be open and the thinking must be broad.

Although the price given by Cao Zhiqiang is high, if you take into account the location of these two houses, the price is really not high at all.

Cao Zhiqiang thought for a while, and it was true that they had taken a walk together before and even held hands, but this was nothing?

"Oh, don't say it!" Lu Xiaowei quickly covered her face with her hands, "It's embarrassing. Anyway, that's what it means. I, I, I care about you and want to be with you. You can do whatever you want."

Of course, if you are not short of money and plan to occupy land in advance, especially if you are engaged in commercial real estate, this period is indeed not bad.

Indeed, according to the original plan, Cao Zhiqiang should have gone back with the crew after the filming of the movie. It was just because something happened in the middle, especially after learning about the situation of private goods in Yuhong Machinery Factory, in order to ensure that nothing happened here.

Problem, he stayed again, specifically to open up another way of making money for Factory Director Wang, and of course for himself.

"You, you!" Lu Xiaowei said angrily, "We, we all took a walk together and held hands. You, you won't deny it, right?"

But this is normal. Beijing is the capital after all. When considering things, safety is always the first priority, and the pace of opening up is not that big.

Ordinary clothing can make money, let alone branded clothing with brand added value. As long as you operate it well, you can definitely make huge profits.

After saying that, Cao Zhiqiang and Lu Xiaowei passed by each other, ready to leave here.

Well, if you really want to do commercial real estate, it’s not just here. Of course, the first choice is Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and the second choice is here.

Soon, Lu Xiaowei took Cao Zhiqiang to the safety stairs.

Just stay here with peace of mind and work well with peace of mind.

I'll come back to see you in a few days when I'm done with it and I'm free."

"Sorry, I was distracted just now." After casually apologizing, Cao Zhiqiang said, "Tell me again, what did you just say?"

With these 50,000 yuan, there's nowhere to go. Even if I open a business somewhere else, it's no problem at all. There's still a lot left over.

Wait, demolition is not necessarily developed. After all, it seems that the houses here were demolished relatively early, and the compensation given is not outrageous.

Cao Zhiqiang blinked and suddenly said: "Ah, you, you want to..."

While Ma Suqin was hospitalized, Cao Zhiqiang not only focused on women, but he also didn't just think about how to deal with Ma Suqin's husband.

For your sake, I am happy to make some investments in Jinling, and then I will come to see you often in the future.

Cao Zhiqiang frowned, but still followed Lu Xiaowei closely.

So, for the time being, don’t think too much about it, buy a few good apartments here, build a chain of specialty stores first, establish a brand, and it won’t be too late to develop slowly in the future.

Looking at Lu Xiaowei who was pouting in front of him with dissatisfaction, Cao Zhiqiang finally realized that he was chatting with Lu Xiaowei.

After arriving here, although the journey was not long, Lu Xiaowei took a few breaths and took a few deep breaths. It was obvious that she was not tired, but a little nervous.

However, in the 1980s, even in Xinjiekou here, there were actually very few high-rise buildings, and most of them were residential buildings along the street that were used for both commercial and residential purposes.

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "Actually, I should have gone back a long time ago. It was just because there were still some things that had not been dealt with here that I stayed to deal with them. Now that these things have been dealt with, I should go back earlier.

There are still a lot of things waiting for me over there."

Moreover, these two courtyard houses were originally neighbors who were engaged in small business. One was a tailor shop that made customized clothes, and the other was a cloth shop that sold cloth and silk. The two families complemented each other and happened to be relatives.

Lu Xiaowei bit her lip again, then lowered her head and said: "I, I don't want to be separated from you, I want to be with you, so if you can't come, just transfer me away and transfer me to you. In this case, I

, we, we can be together."

Of course, at this time, there are really not many people who can spend 100,000 yuan to buy a house, at least not many in Jinling City.

In fact, those people who happily sell houses only think about repeat customers and do not realize the importance of location at all.

Cao Zhiqiang would not go back on his word. After all, the two houses in such a good location, and not only are they very big, but also right next to each other, they can be connected together.

"You haven't answered me yet." Lu Xiaowei asked Cao Zhiqiang, "When will you transfer me to the hospital in Beijing?"

But the conscience of heaven and earth, what happened that time was just that Cao Zhiqiang felt that Lu Xiaowei was walking too slowly and too slowly, and she was a little distracted. He was afraid that something would happen to her and didn't want to waste time, so he simply held her hand and walked.

Also, in this era, if an unmarried man and woman take a walk together or hold hands, it is actually equivalent to establishing a love relationship.

"I don't care." Lu Xiaowei said flatly, "You have to be responsible for me anyway."

"I want to work in a hospital in Beijing." Lu Xiaowei raised her head and stared at Cao Zhiqiang and said, "The best one is a hospital close to your home."

I don't have to worry about having too many lice now, and it doesn't matter if I have one more woman.

It can be said that, if nothing else is mentioned, at least in terms of elevator renovation, the hospitals in Jinling are ahead of the hospitals in Beijing. Many hospitals in Beijing do not yet have elevators.

Cao Zhiqiang's face was full of questions: "What do you mean?"

No matter what, although Xinjiekou, even now, is a very central location in Jinling City, but in the center, the real estate market has not taken off, and the supply is basically greater than the demand, with more sold and less bought.

The house prices are also cabbage prices.

In fact, in the early 1980s, those who could buy houses on a large scale in China were basically overseas Chinese from Hong Kong and Macao. Firstly, they had money, and secondly, they also had the awareness to invest in real estate. Unfortunately, investment in real estate during this period also depends on the situation. Not everyone

Earn everything.

It was Cao Zhiqiang who valued the good location here, and then after several discussions with the store owner, he reached an agreement on the intention to purchase it wholly.

After saying that, Lu Xiaowei was shy and wanted to run away.

"Really?" Lu Xiaowei asked, "You didn't lie to me?"

"Of course not." Cao Zhiqiang said, "Don't worry, when I come back next time, I will guarantee that I will find a good house for you to live here. In the future, you will have your own home and no longer need to live in a dormitory."

Lu Xiaowei then beamed: "Okay, I'm waiting for your news, but you should come as soon as possible!"

"Don't worry." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, "I won't keep you waiting long."
