After the sale of this house, there is still an expense, which is very expensive.
That is decoration. Basically, every owner of this kind of old house needs to be decorated once when it is sold. Because a single-family villa is not an apartment building, it is just a small place. No matter how it is designed, it is nothing more than changing the color of the walls and doors.
But for this type of single-family house, which exceeds 300 square meters, many people have their own design ideas. For example, the house bought by Zhao Mingyang was previously lived in by an old man.
Zhao Mingyang didn't like Lao Mo's design style very much, and the house was old, so Zhao Mingyang could only renovate and strengthen the house.
The reason why this type of house can exist for so long is that the owner regularly reinforces the house to prevent potential safety hazards.
But the decoration fee is very expensive. The labor cost in the United States is very high.
For such a decoration, Zhao Mingyang calculated that it would not cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. The main reason is that the labor cost is really too high, so it is helpless for the people here to have strong hands-on skills. The house has all kinds of lawnmowers, cutting machines and so on.
All in one order to save labor costs.
The price of building materials is not high, but the labor cost is very expensive. Zhao Mingyang does not have the time and energy to do it himself. The whole house basically needs to be renovated, and he can only find Chinese decoration, because the Chinese decoration efficiency is very fast, and the amount of work can only be done in one month.
The local construction team may take a year and a half.
Zhao Mingyang found someone to calculate the effect he wanted and how much it would cost, and the final quote he got was US$250,000.
Including the amount of the real estate, Zhao Mingyang had to pay nearly two million US dollars, and Zhao Mingyang spent the money.
After the formalities were completed, Zhao Mingyang got the key. Hua Qinghua recommended a construction company to Zhao Mingyang, which was an all-China class.
Zhao Mingyang gave the other party a general idea. The cost of Chinese-style decoration is high, because the wood in Chinese style is mainly expensive, and you need to choose the wood, as well as the shape. The decoration company recommends machine-carved ones, which are some machine-carved ones.
If the wall wood is handmade, it will be very expensive, and it won't really look like it is machine-carved.
The most expensive part is the secondary reinforcement of the house. This house is nearly seventy years old and many places have been corroded.
The other party told Zhao Mingyang that it would be done in a month, just to add more money and find more people. During the day, he would do the noisy projects first, and then he would do the interior work at night, working in two shifts.
The owner of the decoration company advised Zhao Mingyang that windows and doors must cost a lot of money. There will be break-ins and robberies here. As long as the economy is not good, it will be chaotic here. It is very chaotic. Zero-dollar purchases often occur.
Moreover, it would be best to renovate the basement of this villa. Zhao Mingyang asked how much it would cost, and the other party gave Zhao Mingyang a relatively reliable price, plus an additional two hundred thousand dollars.
This $200,000 is really not expensive. The other party wants to help Zhao Mingyang’s villa build an independent water supply system, power supply system, and air circulation system. They will also reinstall the basement and create a ventilation system and food storage area.
, and also need to build a whole-house alarm system.
According to what the other party said, it can last for at least 30 to 40 years without the need for secondary decoration. Unless the decoration style does not like re-decoration, everything here will be better than ordinary decoration within a few decades.
The other party also built a solar photovoltaic panel on Zhao Mingyang's roof for power supply. To put it bluntly, the place was to be converted into a safe house. The windows and bay window glass were all made of tempered glass of the same grade as the bank.
Zhao Mingyang handed the key to the other party, and the other party was indeed very efficient. He directly brought people into the house and smashed the wall first. Zhao Mingyang didn't want anything inside, and let the decoration company take away everything that could be used.
If you want to buy this kind of large villa and want it to be better decorated, the price is likely to be close to the purchase price. This kind of villa is basically intended for long-term stay. Zhao Mingyang wants to get it right at once. He has no intention of selling this apartment and will use it as a vacation in the future.
Room is available.
The main thing is to give people the feeling that he might settle down here.
What he wants to do now is to take a walk, go for a walk in various places here, go shopping and buy things. It's no wonder that Zhao Mingyang is being targeted.
He does come here in a hurry and leaves in a hurry, and it is the kind of communication with a very strong purpose.
At this time, Zhao Mingyang was wandering around Hanguo City. The so-called Hanguo City is a community, similar to Chinatown. It is called customs, whether it is Chinatown, Hanguo City, custom street, etc.
They are all pioneering for the United States. Without these outsiders, the United States would not have the international financial status it has today.
To put it bluntly, just like ordinary people, whoever has money can speak tough. For the United States to maintain this position in recent decades, the military is not as important as everyone thinks. The most important thing is its economy.
Many cross-generational scientific research talents have been born here. Many of these talents are immigrants. These people have left top scientific research technologies here. In recent decades, we have entered the era of science and technology, and the core of science and technology is in the United States.
.
A steady stream of wealth and talents has stayed here. How many wealthy people from China, Japan, South Korea and India have moved here, and how many scientific research talents have come here. These wealth and talents have created the financial status of the United States.
What can you do with money? Invest in military, education, medical care, scientific research, agriculture, etc. This is like a snowball getting bigger and bigger.
When you have money, you use money to recruit talents. When you have talents, you have unlimited treasury.
According to the development of science and technology, China now seems to be much slower than the United States, but in fact, China has completed a leap in the shortest time. Basically, except for a few high-precision sectors, China can conduct self-research in science and technology.
Zhao Mingyang and Lao Wu came to Hanguo City to wander around. Zhao Mingyang suddenly said jokingly: "Old Wu, why don't I find you a Hanguo wife? They say that Hanguo is plump."
When Lao Wu heard this, he immediately blushed and said, "Boss, don't be joking. Besides, I like natural products. Who knows if there are too many fillers to make them fuller?"
"Oh, what you said makes sense. How about I find you an R-book to satisfy your fantasies?"
Old Wu's face was like a tomato. Zhao Mingyang looked at Old Wu and said: "What are you talking about? They all belong to the old men. Tell me what kind of person you want to find. You are too old to be single all the time."
Bar."
"Aren't you also married?" Lao Wu said.
After hearing this, Zhao Mingyang sighed and said, "Old Wu, do you know what the differences between you and me are now?"
Old Wu shook his head, not knowing what Zhao Mingyang was going to say.
"What's the difference between you and me? We both have a bowl of rice. You only have one portion of rice when you sit at the dining table. You have to add a dish, right?" Zhao Mingyang said.
After hearing this, Lao Wu nodded and said, "That's for sure."
"You need a side dish, and I am sitting at the window with rice. In front of me are dozens of dishes. What I am worried about is what to eat, what not to eat, and how to eat it. And how do you choose?
A dish, do you understand?"
"Then I can choose two more dishes. I can't get enough of one dish, at least three meat dishes and two vegetarian dishes." Old Wu said.
Zhao Mingyang was speechless for a while. He looked at Lao Wu and said: "This is not a question of food. Let's put it this way, I don't know who is better to get married with. I'm afraid that I will let down a group of people by getting married. You don't even have a choice now.
Tell me what you like."
Old Wu touched his head and said shyly: "I just want to find someone who can treat me well and live a stable and stable life."
"Then you will never find it in your life." Zhao Mingyang said.

"How come you can't find this?" Old Wu said unconvinced. Is he really going to be a bachelor all his life?
He really wanted to find someone. After all, his family was done, so he felt at ease.
"Be realistic, brother, how old are you? Thirty-five or thirty-six? Think about it, a woman your age is either divorced or her demands were too high when she was young. Now there are only a few left.
The most important thing is, at this age, is there a simple one? Those are those who no longer have love, only want benefits, and have seen through human nature.
It’s not difficult for you to find someone like this. After all, you now earn a million dollars a year, but you say that the other person can live a steady life? The probability is small. The other party must want to make some money from you to ensure their own interests.
So it’s not suitable for you to find someone who is older. If you do, you have to find someone who has been going to school. That kind of person is relatively simple, but let me give you a friendly reminder. There is basically no one who is so old and good-looking.
That’s it.”
"Why?" Lao Wu asked.
"It's very simple. A good-looking girl has been remembered by others since she was a child. Let's do the math. The simplest thing is that in elementary school, if there are ten boys to please her, she will probably know the tricks of boys to please her.
In middle school, when love begins, many girls will drop out of school and embark on a path of no return because they are coaxed by higher-level men. However, those who are not coaxed must be smarter or have stricter discipline at home.
However, some girls have not yet grown up in middle school, and many girls in high school are much prettier than in middle school.
Then girls during this period will also be chased. Girls who have always been good-looking before will not lack people to chase after they enter high school. The dividing line is when they reach college. Without the care of their parents, many boys and girls are like running away.
The wild horse.
During this period, good-looking girls are either numb to men's routines, feel bored, and don't like boys anymore. Or they find a suitable person to date.
Beautiful women are not stupid at all. They are even smarter than most people and have high emotional intelligence. Those girls who did not go to college may have had several boyfriends or been married and divorced. They have also seen through human nature.
.
Before the age of thirty, this group of beauties will meet the right person, because they have too many opportunities. If they meet the wrong person, they will start to make very realistic plans for their appearance as they age. They are more likely to
Everyone knows that their advantages are gradually disappearing.
They are completely numb to men, and any routine will gradually fade away. What they want is someone to rely on.
For this kind of people, it is indeed possible to live a life, and it can even be said to be practical, but they will not have a real relationship with you. Their relationship has been squandered in their good years. To put it bluntly, they have had enough fun and find someone.
An honest man gets married.
After thirty, all they have left are plans for the future. You are a guarantee for them, but they cannot really be with you.
If you want to find a beautiful woman, then you should find someone who is younger than you, someone in their twenties, or a college student, and you can sort yourself out. There is a market for mature old men like you, and they have a lot of money, which will give you double satisfaction.
Little girls like mature and steady men who can also provide them with material satisfaction.
Let's put it this way, these little girls will slowly develop feelings for you, and will have a sense of dependence and admiration for you, but you must treat them as princesses, tolerate their little tempers, and simply treat them as your own.
Just treat it like a child."
"I don't know how to coax people, and I don't want to talk to people who are too young. There is nothing to talk about when they are too young," Lao Wu said.
"Then you can only look for the last one. They are either very ordinary or very simple, and have a bit of beauty after makeup. They have been studying since they were young, and their families are not worried that they can't find each other.
, just let them go to school all the time, and study and study. When they get older, the family starts to get anxious.
The second thing is that I am older. This way of thinking and my age have separated me from society. I am a person in his mid-twenties, but his speech and behavior are similar to those of sixteen or seventeen, and his way of thinking about things is relatively simple, without so many twists and turns.
Daodao, when looking at things, simply focus on logic and have a black and white view of the world.
With this kind of mentality, you can either find the same person in school or go on a blind date with someone.
If you go on a blind date with someone, it will show that there is basically a language barrier. The nice thing is that you read a lot and you care about logic. The ugly thing is that you have low emotional intelligence and do not know how to adapt. You are stupid when reading, and you speak straight to the point. Chatting will make people feel embarrassed and confused.
Deadlock, like to argue, which is called a debate if you like it, but it is a bully if you don't like it.
Most people will become tactful and flexible after entering society from school. After all, as they get older, their way of thinking will also change. If you say that a person in his mid-twenties is chatting with someone in his mid-teens, there will be
Is there an obstacle? Yes, one party knows what the other party is thinking, but the other party cannot understand some of the words of the other party.
It's like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old kid trying to reason with a twenty-five or six-year-old person. Can a twenty-five or six-year-old person not understand? I definitely understand. I just want to use more euphemistic words to talk to the other person, but this euphemism
The other party may not understand or may misunderstand.
This is also why some female doctors find it difficult to date and remain single. It's not that they won't accept it, but that the partner wants to find someone who can be reasonable to live with.
To be reasonable means to understand the ways of the world and how to deal with some social issues. If you don't understand this, for most people, what you will find is not the other half, and it may be a potential trouble.
But this type is suitable for you. You don’t like to deal with people, and you don’t like people who have too many thoughts. Girls of this age are not too clingy, and habitually like to be alone. More importantly, this type of relationship is relatively unstable when going to school.
How to enrich it, you can slowly cultivate your feelings."
"That's not possible, female doctor, people can like me." Old Wu said.
"What's wrong? Female doctors are anxious when they turn thirty, because the older they get, the worse the quality of the candidates they can choose.
I will get you a foreign MBA and arrange a position in the company for you, and you will be very popular in the blind date market." Zhao Mingyang said.
"How can this work? We don't have anything in common," Lao Wu said.
"If you don't have a common language, just slowly create. I'll find someone to introduce you. Just wait for the blind date. I'll find a wife for you, and I'll guarantee your satisfaction." Zhao Mingyang said, and she asked Gu Man to help Lao Wu look for someone.
He asked Wu Zhonghua's daughter to help Lao Wu do the searching.
The two of them were walking on the roadside when they suddenly saw a group of people chasing a woman.
Zhao Mingyang originally wanted to watch the fun, but when he saw it, he was like, oh my god! Why is it her!
