Lu Jiangan swallowed half of the flower roll in one gulp, his expression was very surprised.
Yesterday, when Zhang Shufen and Luo Zhongdong talked about wanting to do business in Nanjiang District, Lu Jiangan originally thought that he would just use the vacant storefront rented by Wang Ming and send a few people there to try to attract a few orders of business.
Because of his self-esteem, Lu Jiangan didn't pay much attention to Zhang Shufen's decoration business on weekdays. He only knew that his wife was now capable and there was no need for him to be the mainstay of the family's finances.
But spending hundreds of thousands to buy a commercial house in Nanjiang District is beyond Lu Jiangan's imagination. Last year, the couple was worried about the house allocated by the factory for 1,000 yuan. This year, they have spent more than 100,000 to buy a house.
?
Lu Jiangan heard his wife mention that although her son's grades are good now, it is crucial to go to a good university and a good high school in the future. She plans to let her son go to a key high school no matter what, and it is not the level of Chongxian Middle School.
It has to be the best school in Chongshan.
Of course Lu Jiangan strongly agrees with this, and he has been mentally prepared for the move.
Isn’t the financial pressure just too great?
"To borrow so much money, the interest is high, can our family afford to repay it? We still need to borrow so much?"
Lu Jiangan's expression became serious. He didn't know anything about the accounting. Anyway, he would definitely not be able to rely on his own salary. The salary he received from the Southwest Military Industry Bureau was only a few levels higher than that of the Red Shipyard, just over 700.
"It's not all borrowed. Mom now has 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, but she just used it before it was time to pay dividends."
Seeing that his father, Lu Jiangan, seemed to be a little opposed, Lu Yang quickly spoke up to help his mother.
"Seriously, it's more than 70,000."
Zhang Shufen had a smile on her face, pinched her fingers and said: "I did the math last night, the company's account is 260,000, Xiuya borrowed 100,000, not counting the interest she mentioned, I should have 70,000 just for my family.
I still have several thousand deposits, so I have borrowed more than 70,000 yuan. I heard that bank real estate loans are for ten to twenty years. Those that can be repaid slowly, so the more than 20,000 yuan should be repaid early."
Lu Jiangan silently glanced at Zhang Shufen, hiding his surprise in his heart. His wife had saved more money this year than the two of them had in their entire lives. He was proud of you, but he also felt a bit of pressure from a man.
"It's really hard not to go. The business here in Xinjiang really can't be done. Otherwise, I can only fire people. But I just recruited them a few months ago, and now I'm driving them away? Can I, Zhang Shufen, do it?"
Come do that!”
Zhang Shufen was immersed in her own thoughts, her tone was a little excited, and she didn't care about Lu Jiangan's silence.
The current system of Zhifen Decoration is considered very advanced among private enterprises and is very attractive and binding to most people in the company. The reason why the income has dropped a bit in the past two months is that most employees have no complaints or complaints.
The desire to leave is inseparable from this so-called humanized management system.
Zhang Shufen thought about the company's own problems, which were not big, but mainly caused by market changes. She usually treated people with enthusiasm and sincerity as her starting point. Since she would have to leave Xinjiang sooner or later, there was nothing wrong with preparing early.
Besides, after buying a new house, just like what Lu Yang said, she also had the motivation to make money, so Zhang Shufen thought about it for a whole night, and she basically tended to go to Nanjiang District for development.
"If you want to buy a smaller one with two bedrooms, you don't need to borrow the extra 20,000 yuan."
Nowadays, when thinking about economic issues, Lu Jiangan's thinking is still relatively conservative.
"Two bedrooms are too small. One for my parents and one for me. Let's make a guest room and study room. Three bedrooms is too small for me. I will buy a villa in two years so that I won't run out of space when I marry my wife."
Lu Yang curled his lips and immediately rejected his father's proposal.
It is easy to get a mortgage loan for a big house. Lu Yang also plans to wait for Zhang Shufen to buy the house, then encourage her to apply for a mortgage loan, and then lend it to Sister Xiu to make money in the stock market.
This bull market will last until next year. The more funds of all kinds, the better. As long as they are not risky black money such as loan sharks, Lu Yang will accept anyone who comes.
"How old are you? You think about your wife all the time? We have agreed that if you don't do well in the key high school entrance examination, you will be punished by me!"
Zhang Shufen smiled angrily and couldn't help but pat her son gently as a warning.
Lu Yang had a close relationship with several girls from his school, so he was just trying to be friends. Of course, some uncles and aunts mentioned it in front of Zhang Shufen as a joke or on purpose, but after careful observation, she still believed that her son didn't have that intention.
"Mom, why don't you believe your son! Are my grades not good enough yet?"
Lu Yang was deliberately angry and acted coquettishly at his mother's side. When he grew up, he would be embarrassed to experience this feeling of happiness.
"I can only say yes, but don't be proud, kid. Complacency can easily lead to regression. At your age..."
Zhang Shufen's mouth was full of words of admonishment, but her smiling eyes when she looked at her son were actually full of pride.
"Okay, okay, I get it. I must be humble and work hard to learn all the good qualities of my parents!"
Lu Yang was afraid that his ears would get calloused, so he quickly reached out to interrupt.
Lu Jiangan saw his wife and son laughing and laughing, and his mood became more relaxed. In the end, the choice before him was a worry about happiness.
Anyway, as Lu Yang said, life will get better and better!
"I agree with buying a house, but why not go to Daliangshan District? My parents are both there, so it has something to do with it. The houses there should be cheaper."
Lu Jiangan was silent for a moment, then suddenly changed his direction and asked a question.
"Not to mention Daliang District, other areas in Chongshan are now the same as Shannan District. There are many state-owned enterprises and few businessmen. There are not many commercial houses there. The potential market that meets Zhifen's decoration positioning is very small. Besides, Grandpa Nainai is usually the same as Dad.
I like to ask for help, so how can I have any connections? But at least my uncle is there in Nanjiang District, which can be somewhat of a help. Now there is Aunt Wu. In addition, Sister Lu is Lu Weiyang. The mayor’s sister is also from Nanjiang District. Her brother
He is the top leader of the district public security bureau, so if he encounters trouble that cannot be solved, he will not be unable to find anyone to call for help."
Before Zhang Shufen could speak, Lu Yang was already talking eloquently, leaving Lu Jiangan to remain silent.
As for the relationship between the Yin family, Lu Jiangan and Zhang Shufen both thought it was unattainable. Neither of them had the temperament to do anything flattering. Of course, they still had to try it shamelessly when saving lives.
A dinner table meeting to decide the future development route of the Lu family was a complete success under the wise leadership of Zhang Shufen, the hard cooperation of Lu Jiangan, and the hard work of Lu Yang.
Of course, buying a house is not that simple, and you have to take your time.
After resting for a while in the afternoon, the whole family went out together. After all, it was a holiday and it would be inappropriate not to meet the elderly.
The Lu family is very lively every festival now. Jiang Kang and Li Qing are always there on the way there, and now Zhang Shufen and Lu Jiangan are also coming frequently.
It's a pity that Zou Chengjin didn't transfer. He had to go to work today and didn't come. However, Lu Jiangping came early for the holiday. She has now been transferred to Zhongshan No. 5 Middle School, a key point directly under the Nanjiang District Education Commission, to teach, although this school is a little far away from Zou Chengjin's place of work.
It's far, but it's not far from my accommodation in Nanjiang District, and there are buses that run directly there, making it very convenient to go back and forth.
Zou Lingling also went to live in Chongshan No. 5 Middle School and came back less often. However, she was still there today during a rare holiday. She saw Lu Yang running towards him with a smile and took him to the small bedroom, wanting to ask him about the latest news about the Backstreet Boys.
, and the greeting card I sent to myself last Christmas was very unique and there is nothing extra.
The two siblings who used to "fight" are now very close. Lu Liang sat on the sofa and watched with envy. He had no topic to talk about his poor grades and his two brothers and sisters.
When Lu Jiangping saw Zhang Shufen, he immediately stood up and greeted her enthusiastically. She was no ordinary teacher in the school now. Everyone knew that she had a background. She became the leader of the grade group as soon as she arrived. Although she could not help but arouse some jealousy, it was more among her colleagues.
I envy the leadership for encouragement.
Li Qing and Lu Jiangkang sat motionless on the sofa, with a fake smile on her face and a cold heart.
There is no airtight wall in the world. Why do Lu Jiangping and Zou Lingling go to such a good school in Nanjiang District? Do you think she doesn't know?
We are all a family, and this Shufen has gone too far!
That's really stingy, isn't it because you didn't borrow much money?
Li Qing thought angrily, no matter how small-minded he was, he couldn't get over it.
After a busy night, the next day Zhang Shufen and Lu Jiangan drove their son to the city sports school, but there were two "uninvited guests" in the car.
Last night, it was mentioned that Lu Yang was about to go to Chengrong City to participate in a fencing competition. Lu Chongrui and Zhu Xuezhi said that it was just right, and the two old men had to go with them and take a look around the provincial capital.
Zhang Shufen and Lu Jiangan tried to persuade him for a long time, but the old man became stubborn but could not be persuaded at all. In the end, he lost his temper and refused to let the two of them take care of him, saying that his old arms and legs were still intact.
In the end, Lu Yang came out to smooth things over, saying that he would go there tomorrow and ask the coach. If he could go with the team, it would be safer.
According to Lu Yang's experience, the sports committee is not rich these days. To go out for this kind of competition, you have to charter a car, and have family members to share the food, clothing, housing and transportation. You can usually just talk to the coach.
It was just when she arrived at the city sports school that Zhang Shufen met head coach Cao Jungang for the first time. She was embarrassed to mention it, but the other party was embarrassed and said that this time she went out to compete on behalf of Chongshan City. Although it was a youth competition, it was relatively formal, so unusual.
Comply with regulations.
However, Zhang Shufen knew that the rules were just a matter of favor, so she started talking about business, and in the end, she even said that she could sponsor a sum of money, just to provide convenience.
Cao Jungang was really helpless, so he had to let Lu Yang and others go take a look first, thinking that they would give up when they got there.
Several brand-new Casebauer buses are very eye-catching these days, but the nearly 50-seater bus in front of me is crowded with people, and there are only one or two empty seats here and there.
"It's not that I don't want to give you convenience, but I really can't afford two more seats."
Cao Jungang's expression was a little uncomfortable. After all, he was slapping himself in the face, but the Sports Committee itself is a money-making unit and has many aspects to take care of. This kind of uncle who goes on a free trip can't afford to offend him more than someone who is willing to pay for it.
Zhang Shufen and Lu Jiangan frowned when they saw that the car was indeed too crowded. Lu Chongrui and Zhu Xuezhi beside them were also a little dumbfounded while carrying their luggage.
At this time, someone from the fencing team arrived late, but it was Lu Hui and her mother. Chen Mingyu saw Lu Yang smiling and came over to say hello.
Chen Mingyu knew Cao Jungang, and with Lu Weiyang's relationship, she quickly understood the ins and outs.
"That's it, Coach Cao, do you think it would be like this?"
Chen Mingyu thought about it and made a suggestion. It turned out that there were many special youth competitions in the provincial capital these days, and she happened to know one of them, so she could take the bus there.
Lu Chongrui and Zhu Xuezhi were both overjoyed. Although Zhang Shufen and Lu Jiangan were embarrassed, they couldn't object.
Cao Jungang was a little hesitant. They were two old people, so Lu Yang would definitely have to take care of them. However, looking at the expectant looks in their eyes, he still nodded.
"It's too crowded here, so I'll sit over there too."
Several people followed Chen Mingyu and walked to the side. Lu Hui, who had been silent all this time, frowned and glanced at Lu Yang. She also followed with her bag, causing her mother to look at him unexpectedly.
When they arrived at the Case Bauer next door, Chen Mingyu went to the female coach outside the car and talked to her about the problem. After hesitating for a while, she walked towards the car.
Lu Yang's eyes followed the movement of the female coach, and a familiar figure appeared vaguely between the seats. He couldn't help but feel excited, and got on the bus before others could react.
With a car full of girls watching in amazement, Lu Yang suppressed his pounding heart, passed the stunned female coach, and walked straight to the figure who was staring out the window with headphones on.
