"Lanhua, let's go to the county town together sometime and find a place close to the school to buy a house."
On the way back from Shuangshui Village, Wang Manyin took advantage of every opportunity to chat with Lanhua.
There are no commercial houses now, so don’t think about buying the buildings privately. The houses belong to various units and factories.
Wang Manyin could only buy a house from a private owner and buy a few cave dwellings to live in. It would be warm in winter and cool in summer.
"There's nothing going on at home right now. I'll go there with the kids next week."
"I'm going to the county town these days to contact a few more houses for sale. I'll come back to pick you up over the weekend."
Wang Manyin returned to the county town the next day. Recently, he had been traveling too frequently between the Shige Festival and the county town.
It is really inconvenient not to have his own car. Wang Manyin has already planned to buy a car.
However, a new factory is being built now, and the funds are not so abundant, so we can only put it aside.
As for the motorcycles bought by other leading households, Wang Manyin really would not choose them.
Meat-wrapped iron has never been within Wang Manyin's consideration.
There shouldn’t be too many reasons for not wanting to choose. Risk is definitely the most important aspect.
The sand on the other Loess Plateau is so heavy that it is really not suitable for riding on the dirt.
Riding this thing is always dusty everywhere, so it is not suitable for business discussions.
The last one, Wang Manyin's family of five, can't just ride a motorcycle and go wherever they want.
Wang Manyin once saw a 125 motorcycle with four or five people on it. Although the traffic police didn't check it, they looked at it reluctantly.
Wang Manyin arrived at the construction site and took a look. The foundation had been laid and the construction of the house had officially started. The construction speed would be greatly improved in the future.
Then Wang Manyin rode Wang Mancang's bicycle and started wandering around the county town.
Except for the family homes of each unit, the rest of the houses in the city belong to the villages located in the city.
Wang Manyin only needs to go to the village and various leisure gathering places to ask the village elders.
It is close to junior high schools and high schools, and there is no shortage of elementary schools. Wang Manyin focused on the two villages of Dongguan and Nanguan in the west of the original area.
Although there are not many houses for sale, I have found a few.
A man was transferred to another place, and the family had to live away from Yuanxi.
Some elderly people are getting older and want to go out to live with their children.
Some educated youth from out of town returned to the city and the house was vacant.
There are some idle public kilns in the village.
There is a family that is extinct, a relative inherits the inheritance, and the house is sold to prepare for the distribution of money.
Although Wang Manyin is not superstitious, this house is a little too depressing. Wang Manyin will definitely not choose it.
There are old and new cave dwellings, earth kilns, stone kilns, all kinds, and there are even several brick kilns.
Cave dwellings are not expensive, but the land is not valuable. What is valuable are the building materials and the wages of the hired workers.
Therefore, these houses in the county are not much more expensive than those in the village.
Wang Manyin had his eye on several places, all of which were good for him to live in for the time being. In the end, he just waited for Lanhua and his children to choose one together.
The shortest stay is three years, the longest stay is six years. The whole family still needs to like it in order to live comfortably.
After Lan Hua and her children came over, they took a fancy to two yards.
One is the three-hole stone kiln, which is only a five-minute walk from the junior high school and not too far from the high school.
One is a brick kiln with five holes in a row. This house is decent enough in the county. Although it is a little far from the middle school, it is closer to the elementary school.
Mao Dan made it easier for his brothers to go to school, and Lan Hua fell in love with a small vegetable garden in the yard.
Wang Manyin considered that since the children were older, at least they would have a room each, and he would be more satisfied with this place.
"Young students, you are right to buy our house. If we had not gone to the provincial capital to live with our son and save money to buy a house in order to raise money for our children, we would not be willing to sell this house that was just built a few years ago."
"Uncle, are you going to buy a house in the provincial capital?"
"My son is the first batch of college students after the resumption of the college entrance examination. Now he has settled in the provincial capital. He insisted on bringing us and his wife to live in the provincial capital. We couldn't live in the house allocated by our work unit, so we wanted to buy a place in the provincial capital.
A bigger house to live with the kids.”
"Uncle, I have an idea. I would like to ask you what you did before you retired."
"Our old man has always been a teacher in the county high school. Not only did the students he taught get good grades, but our two children also became college students."
The uncle didn't say anything, but the gray-haired aunt next to him said proudly.
"I can tell, uncle and aunt, you are both bookish. Your family is also a scholarly family, and you are both educated people. No wonder you two have such a temperament!"
"Young people are discerning, so it's definitely right to buy our house. The house is elegant and will ensure that your children can go to college. If our family hadn't been short of money to buy a house in the provincial capital, I would have given you a cheaper price."
The uncle said it was very lively, but the house was not cheap for Wang Manyin at all.
Wang Manyin will definitely lose money if he loses, and buying a house in the county now will definitely lose money.
Nearly three thousand yuan was enough for Wang Manyin to buy two rooms in a large courtyard in the capital.
My uncle, who has made a lot of money, can think of selling his house in the county town and buying a house in the provincial capital. He is not an ordinary person. Future generations should be grateful to my uncle in the future.
However, it’s hard to buy something you like when you have money. Wang Manyin needs a house in the county town and his family likes it. Spending several thousand yuan more is nothing.
Although the place is in the county town, there is no deed for the house in the village. The neighbors and the village committee have to testify and sign and pledge it, which is considered a formal transaction.
After the uncle got the money, he hurriedly moved out and bought a house in the provincial capital.
Wang Manyin stayed in the county town for a few more days and asked Wang Mancang to send someone to paint the house.
The external kitchen and bathroom were newly renovated, and the dry toilet at home was changed to a flush toilet. Living in the city, of course, you have to enjoy the life in the city. The Wang Manyin factory is still under construction, and there is no shortage of building materials. You can make it as comfortable as you like.
After tidying up the house and replacing it with new furniture produced by Wang Manyin Furniture Factory, the decoration in the house will not be out of date in two thousand years.
There is a small vegetable garden in the yard, and by planting some seasonal vegetables, the family basically does not need to sell vegetables in summer and autumn.
There are two jujube trees, one pomegranate and one peach tree in the courtyard.
Wang Manyin transplanted two more grapes and put up a pergola in the summer. When there is no wind and sand, it is also very pleasant to stay in the courtyard and drink tea.
Once the yard is finished, it will be summer.
Wang Manyin came over alone first,
Only the office building and dormitory building are left in the factory, which have not yet been completed.
Wang Manyin is going to be busy again. He must first purchase machinery and equipment.
The wool processing equipment of Shige Festival will also be transferred to Yuanxi.
By the way, I also purchased a batch of electrical appliances for my home. Don't worry about the TV. I'll arrange the washing machine and refrigerator first. Small electrical appliances such as fans and tape recorders are also needed. The most purchased items are of course the sewing machines needed by the clothing factory.
Buying one or two sewing machines is easy, but buying dozens of them is a waste of effort.
