In 2004, there was a "huge" rise in housing prices across the country, with an average increase of 800 yuan per square meter, which was no longer a small amount given the consumption level at that time.
Wei Zheng was aware of this, but believed in regulation and did not think it would continue to rise. However, after hearing Wei Qingfan give examples from Europe, the United States, Japan and South Korea, and listing numerous data, he was a little shaken, and felt that what his nephew said made sense.
Wei Qingchan, Wei Qinghuan, and Wei Qinghan saw that Wei Qingfan was actually giving lectures to several elders. They looked at each other and their expressions became a little strange.
"Uncle, haven't you always wanted us four siblings to go to school well and be successful?"
Wei Qingfan continued to persuade, "You have read a lot of books, and you will definitely know when class mobility is most likely to occur in a stable society. Reform and opening up is a bonus period, and now this bonus has been almost eaten. Think about it when you first went to sea to do it.
Those who work in the business...if the house price rises to 8,000, 9,000, 20,000, 30,000, will we still be able to afford it? Can we still settle in the city?"
"If there is large-scale urbanization and all graduates go to work in the city and cannot afford houses, they will be working for others. This is the actual 'intergenerational exploitation'. The bosses exploit their employees, and the landlords exploit their tenants.
Those who get the dividends exploit what they don’t get... This is a problem caused by development. Development can solve the problem, but how long do we have to wait?
"I never thought I would win so much money. I feel like God is giving our family this opportunity. Isn't this the opportunity you have been waiting for so many years for?"
Wei Zheng was stunned for a long time, looking at his nephew carefully, and even forgot what issue he was discussing. After a while, he asked: "Did you read this in the book?"
Wei Qingfan nodded and explained: "I'm talking about the situation in other countries."
Wei Zheng nodded, sighed again, but with a smile on his face, he said: "You are reading... very well, and you are thinking, but don't be too extreme, and you can't just think about everything by yourself. You won't know if you go astray.
, you have to communicate with people often.”
"Yes." Wei Qingfan returned to his obedient demeanor and nodded seriously.
Wei Zheng thought about it again and asked Wei Sheng: "What's your opinion?"
Wei Sheng smiled and said: "I don't understand this. Isn't it the eldest brother in our family who makes the decisions... Whatever you say, I will listen to you."
Wei Zheng frowned and said, "What Qingfan said does make sense. What he said just now..."
He paused and said calmly: "I didn't expect it, it's very profound... Well, anyway, when the children grow up, they will have to go to big cities in the future. If this is not possible, the house can still be sold in the future.
"I still have some savings at home. I will look back and see how much the house price is, how much the difference is, and how much you can lend me. When I have money later, I will pay it back."
Wei Sheng and Wang Qing looked at each other, and Wei Sheng said: "Then it's the same for me."
Wei Qingchan asked in a low voice: "You don't need me to pay it back?"
Li Heng glared at her angrily and said, "Do you need to pay it back?"
Wei Qingchan grinned, "That's good."
Wei Qinghuan also whispered: "Dad, Mom, do you want to buy one for our family? Then give it to me or my brother?"
The adults couldn't help but laugh. Wei Sheng laughed and said: "Buy one set first, and then buy it later when you make money."
Wei Qinghan muttered in a low voice: "I don't care, I will buy it myself..."
"Can you afford it?"
Wei Qinghuan glared at him and said, "Go to your school and study hard. Otherwise, when you grow up, you may need me to make money for you to spend. I don't care about you."
Wei Qinghan grumbled twice to express his dissatisfaction and did not dare to refute loudly.
Regarding the terms of "borrowing money" and "paying back money", neither Wei Peng nor Wang Shuhua directly objected, because the three brothers all have strong tempers, and it would be difficult for them to accept it directly. There is still a difference between this and helping.
However, after hesitating for a while, Wang Shuhua emphasized it again and said: "You two have helped me and Wei Peng not once or twice in the past few years. We are also the ones planting the land at home. The two elders help us all day long.
They are all ours, and I keep them in my heart.
"You say this money is a loan, I have no objection, but I have to say this first: no one can say what will happen in the future. This money fell from the sky in the first place. I have never thought about getting it back, regardless of compensation.
If you make a profit, I don’t have any problem if you don’t pay it back. If you want to pay it back, I’ll take it as well, just treat it as what you gave me.”
Wei Sheng lost his father when he was young, and was raised by Wei Qingfan's grandparents. The family was very poor at the time, and the three brothers often had plenty to eat and go hungry when they were young. It was only when Wei Zheng was admitted to the civil service that his situation really improved.
The three brothers supported each other. After they got married, including Li Heng, Wang Shuhua, and Wang Qing, although they inevitably had their own thoughts in life, overall they were very harmonious and united.
Similar situations have occurred over the years, but the amount is larger this time, and the nature is the same.
Wang Shuhua, brother and sister, did not live a wealthy life when they were young. As they talked, they remembered their experiences in the past few years, especially in the years after giving birth to their children, when the school could not pay wages and the family was in dire straits. They shed tears.
It fell, and Li Heng and Wang Qing hurriedly expressed their comfort.
The family was talking and the dishes were all served. Wei Peng patted his wife's hand, drank a glass of wine with Wei Zheng and Wei Sheng, and the matter was settled.
After Wei Peng drank, he remembered Li Miaoyu's incident again and asked Wei Zheng: "Speaking of your Director Zhao, is her husband, Li Shuqing, in the real estate business?"
Wei Zheng nodded, and Li Heng smiled and said: "If I worry about it, I can remove my surname after a while."
According to unwritten customs, people are generally addressed by their surname in the secondary form, and directly by their position in the formal form.
Wei Peng and Wang Shuhua had some understanding of this. They were startled when they heard this. Wei Peng asked: "Are you going to become a regular employee?"
Wei Zheng nodded, lowered his voice, and said: "It's still Li Wanyi's matter. The specific result has not yet been completely determined. The decision is now made by Wu Xianrong and Peng Haichao's dismissal. Within the County Education and Sports Bureau..."
He pondered for a moment and pointed upwards, "The final decision has not been made yet, but I will definitely step down, it depends on how... Li Miaoyu's mother should become a regular employee."
This last sentence was addressed to Wei Qingfan.
Wei Zheng already knew about the newspaper, but had not previously connected it with his nephew.
However, Wei Qingfan's words just now made him suddenly a little suspicious.
Her nephew suddenly won the lottery, and Li Wanyi went to the provincial capital daily to expose the matter...Li Wanyi seemed to be on the verge of becoming her nephew's daughter-in-law...
Can this nephew, who has almost completely transformed himself in just one year, have anything to do with this matter?
Wei Sheng asked: "Brother, can you move?"
Wei Zheng coughed, suppressed the smile that appeared on his face unconsciously, waved his hands and said, "It's hard to say."
"I understand, I understand."
Wei Sheng smiled and raised his glass again, "Congratulations in advance first, ah no, blessings, blessings..."
Wei Qingfan's expression was a bit strange. He initially dealt with this matter, so he followed the principle of caution and tried his best not to underestimate the enemy, but it was still a bit surprising that he handled it to this extent in the end.
But no matter what, it's quite a sense of accomplishment to remove the principal and vice principal together... and it's also a relief to some extent.
Wang Shuhua asked: "Will the bonus still be given?"
Wei Zhengdao: "I will definitely give this to her. We are already dealing with this matter. I should give her the money in the next few years."
"That's good."
Wang Shuhua breathed a sigh of relief and told Li Wanyi again about going to Xiamen University.
Wei Qingchan said with some surprise: "Really?"
Then he said a little depressedly: "I would have known that I would also apply to Xiamen University..."
Li Heng smiled and said: "Are your scores enough? Just wait for the results. It would be best to go to Central Finance University, Ningbo University or Fuzhou University. Anyway, they are all good schools."
Several elders discussed school matters again. After dinner, their parents went to the uncle's house first. Wei Qingfan took his elder sisters and brothers for a walk, and then took Wei Qinghuan and Wei Qinghan.
I sent him home and then went to my uncle’s house to pick up his parents and go home with him.
When they arrived at the entrance of the alley, he didn't go back. He put his parents down and turned back to the store.
The lights were still on in the store. Li Wanyi was sitting at the table, holding her chin with her white arms, and was lost in thought. Wei Qingfan parked the car and entered the store. She noticed the movement, stood up quickly, and greeted with a sweet smile: "
Do you want to buy clothes? You can look around..."
Halfway through, he realized that the person who came in was Wei Qingfan, so he rolled his eyes at him and sat down again.
Wei Qingfan was a little funny and asked: "Senior, have you eaten?"
Li Wanyi pouted and said, "What time is it? I would have starved to death if I didn't eat."
"Does this mean you blame me for not coming to deliver the meal?"
Wei Qingfan joked with a smile, then patted his head, "I almost forgot, the lunch box is still in the car, I forgot to take it off."
"It stinks when I look back."
In the afternoon, Li Wanyi also told him not to forget to wash the lunch box, but seeing that he still forgot, she gave him a disgusted look.
"I have good news for you."
Wei Qingfan came to the table, pulled up another chair and sat down, "The results are out."
Li Wanyi said nothing and looked at him with her clear and charming eyes.
Wei Qingfan originally wanted to give it a try and tease his senior sister, but seeing how concerned she was, he couldn't stop joking and said: "Principal, the vice principal has been dismissed and is pending further processing. The director of the County Education and Sports Bureau is also in the process of processing, and the specific response is
I haven’t decided yet, but I will definitely step down from my position.”
Li Wanyi never thought that her matter would involve so many "big people". She was stunned for a while, "Are there so many people?"
"Not only that, Director Liang, but also your class teacher. These people must be among them, but they are not qualified to be mentioned."
Wei Qingfan smiled again, "In addition, Li Miaoyu's mother may become a regular employee, and my uncle may have the opportunity to take her place... Speaking of which, I have to thank you."
Li Wanzhen looked strange, glanced at him, and asked suspiciously: "You have been so careful from the beginning, wouldn't you have expected such a result, right?"
"Do you think I'm a god?"
Wei Qingfan rolled his eyes, "Of course, I'm very happy that you can admire me so much."
