Of course, in the afternoon, Wang Gensheng bought pots and pans, bought some beds, quilts, etc. and officially entered his new house. Of course, Wang Gensheng was not the only one like this.
In the entire Moon Bay community, as the keys were distributed, hundreds of families officially moved in that day, making the entire community lively.
For people in this era, there is no such thing as decoration. The floor is paved with cement and the walls are whitewashed. This is already the most luxurious decoration of this era, and there is no need to bother with anything else.
In particular, this group of people who buy houses are basically sailors. These people had a hard time in the past. That is to say, they were lucky enough to follow Liu Jin and enter the college to study. Only then did they turn around.
Being able to live in such a house is enough for them. Unlike some wealthy businessmen and gentry, these people naturally look down on such houses. If they have money, they can build them themselves, and they all pay attention to the door, largeness and luxury.
Just fine.
Dong Chunhua is busy in the kitchen of her new house. The kitchen of this new house is individually designed. It has a traditional stove and a coal stove specially used for burning briquettes. It is a complimentary package.
"This house is expensive, but it looks comfortable no matter how you look at it."
Dong Chunhua is naturally very concerned about the place where she will work in the future. She quickly figured out everything in the kitchen. The kitchen is not big, but everything is very well designed. She likes it very much. It is far from being her own place.
The kitchen in my hometown in the countryside can be compared.
The kitchen here is very bright and clean, especially the washing basin, which she likes the most. It is very convenient whether it is washing pots and pans or washing clothes. When the faucet is pressed, the water will flow.
There is no need to fetch water, let alone carry water, it is so convenient.
Of course, this was just the beginning. In the next few days, Dong Chunhua fell in love with this house more and more. What she liked most was the toilet.
The toilets in Yueliangwan Community are similar to those of later generations. After use, flush with water and it is very clean and tidy. Moreover, there is an independent toilet in this house, which makes life very convenient.
You must know that in this era, whether in the city or in the countryside, going to the toilet is an extremely inconvenient thing. In the city, special utensils are needed, and then they are all processed together. You can imagine the taste.
As for rural areas, it is even more so. Many times, it is done casually outside, or there is a special place in a village, but the conditions are very simple and there is no privacy.
It is completely different now. This new type of toilet solves all problems. It is clean, tidy, convenient, safe and confidential. This is what Dong Chunhua likes the most.
“City people still know how to enjoy~”
Dong Chunhua lamented that she was a country woman with long hair and short knowledge. Naturally, she didn't know that even in the capital, no one could enjoy such a life.
Only in the many industries under Liu Jin's command can there be such a toilet. Even if such a toilet is placed in later generations, it is quite acceptable. You must know that a certain South Asian country that claims to be the second largest country in the world still has such toilets until two thousand years ago.
Didn't solve this problem.
In addition to being very satisfied with every aspect of the house, Dong Chunfang also likes the many supporting facilities in the community.
There are more than a dozen shops in the center of the community. As the community is put into use, these more than a dozen shops are opening one after another.
There are grain stores, including rice from the south of the Yangtze River, flour from the north, chestnuts, etc., all of which are available in a complete range and of high quality, but the prices are not cheap.
There are butcher shops, pork, mutton, all kinds of seafood, chickens, ducks and geese from rural areas, etc., you can choose from everything, and even occasionally beef is sold here.
There are grocery stores, all kinds of groceries needed for daily life, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, etc. You can buy them in the community without going to Tianjin city.
There is even a rouge and gouache shop, and the things inside are very expensive. Dong Chunhua just entered, took a look, asked casual questions, and came out immediately. After all, she was still not used to the current life, and the money spent was still the same as before.
Also try to save flowers as much as possible.
The shops in the community greatly facilitate the lives of everyone in the community. Outside the community, because it belongs to Tianjin New Town, it is also very close to the market planned in the new town.
You can buy everything at the market, and it has become a bustling little neighborhood, making shopping very convenient.
On this day, Dong Chunhua and Fan Lianhua, the wife of Chen Laosan next door, were walking very casually in Yueliangwan Community. When the two came to Tianjin, they had nothing to do except wash, cook and take care of housework.
.
Wang Gensheng and Chen Laosan go to sea every day and spend most of their time away from home. As for their children, they have all gone to school at Moon Bay Private School.
This left the two country women with nothing to do for a while. For them who were used to working hard, they felt uncomfortable all over and didn't know what to do.
"Living in this city is comfortable, but everything costs money. You see, the daily oil, salt, firewood and rice are not money. You also have to pay property fees and water bills every month. After all, this
Dozens of Wen per day are simply not enough to cover the expenses."
Fan Lianhua was calculating the financial accounts with her fingers crossed.
"Isn't that right? My boss said he wanted to eat beef, so he went to the market outside in the morning and cut two kilograms of beef to make soy sauce. This beef is very expensive. Two kilograms of beef cost dozens of yuan.
Woolen cloth."
Dong Chunhua also nodded. If the head of the family hadn't been able to make money, they really wouldn't have been able to live here. This life was not what country people lived.
Dozens of cents or hundreds of cents are spent every day. If it were left in the countryside, it might not be possible to spend that much money in a month.
"Spending money is nothing. We are the two heads of the family and we can make money. We still have to spend the money as we should. What makes me most uncomfortable is that I have nothing to do except washing and cooking at home. You don't have to do anything."
You know, how can we country people live in a leisurely manner? We have nothing to do and feel uncomfortable all over."
Fan Lianhua smiled and nodded, thought for a moment and then said.
"I heard that there are many workshops and factories here in Tianjin that are recruiting people. I'm wondering if I should find some time to do it. Otherwise, if I stay idle like this, people will get rusty."
"There are a lot of them. There are many workshops and factories here in Tianjin, and the wages are pretty good. I have already asked someone to send letters to my family, asking all my brothers and sisters from my mother's family to come out and work here in Tianjin.
."
"My boss won't let me go out to work. He is a sailor after all now. If this wife still goes out to work, she will be laughed at."
"But we are all from the countryside, and it is really uncomfortable to have nothing to do."
"Listen to what you say, I also want to ask someone to repair my books and go home, so that everyone in my family can come to work here in Tianjin."
The two people kept chatting.
The two of them are from the same village and were very familiar with each other before. Now when they go out, they naturally spend every day together, shopping for groceries, going shopping and so on.
Naturally, they like their current life very much. They live a carefree life. The only worry is that they always feel uncomfortable when they have nothing to do.
But this is also the worry of happiness. After all, no one likes to work hard, and everyone wants to live a leisurely life. They just talk about it.
After seeing the prosperity of Tianjin and enjoying the affluent life here, they all went to their own homes and parents' homes to study, preparing to call all their younger brothers and sisters to come to Tianjin, just like in future generations.
