Zhang Tao pursed her lips to Dongdong in displeasure, "The rent is one yuan a month, and food is another factor. If we don't talk about food, just rent, it's only twelve yuan a year."
Families with a large number of people in the Red Flag Brigade only receive thirty or forty yuan a year, and families with a small number of people only receive about ten yuan. Not counting children, let's talk about adults. On average, each person gets less than twelve yuan.
But the annual rent for educated youths only costs twelve yuan, and food needs to be calculated separately.
Originally, the educated youths were not good at work in the field, and the money they received at the end of the year would be even less. I asked if I could keep going east. Unless there was someone at home to support me, I would not be able to survive in the Red Flag Brigade.
But as an educated youth, Keke is not favored at home, and his family is very poor. It is okay to give out a small amount of money for a short period of time, but how can he continue to give money after a long time?
At that time, the lives of educated youths will be very difficult, so it is only a matter of time before conflicts break out."
"So, if you think about it, is the rent too expensive?"
The rent is linked to the local economic situation. For example, Lin Jinxing rented a house in Kyoto in his previous life. In a community a little closer to the city center and closer to the subway, the rent for a shared second bedroom would cost between 2,000 to 3,500 or 4,000.
But in secondary cities, two thousand is enough to rent a one-bedroom apartment, so if the economy is not good, the rent will definitely be low.
Needless to say, the economy of the Red Flag Brigade is almost non-existent.
Educated youths work in the fields and cannot earn more than 20 yuan a year, but the rent is only 12 yuan. Add in food, drink, and diarrhea, and they must consume at least 15 yuan a year.
If income and expenditure are not proportional, and coupled with other conflicts, it will only happen sooner or later.
"It must be expensive! They only spent more than thirty yuan to build a house. Three years of rent to build a house, well..."
Zhang Tao looked around to see if there was no one nearby, then lowered his head and whispered to Lin Jinxing: "He feels that they have stayed in Xiangdong for more than three years, and now he has no hope of going back."
Lin Jinxing patted Zhang Tao's shoulder sympathetically to encourage him, changed the topic and asked, "My house is very cheap."
"They are small~, they only have three main rooms and one side room, and their homestead is free of charge, but the team leader made a request. If they return to the city, their house will be owned by the team."
"That's okay, but homestead land is not cheap, and the villagers don't seem to approve it. The houses in the countryside are not valuable, and we won't be able to sell them for much when we return to the city.
And once we return to the city, we are not allowed to go back to the village to live. We will give it to the brigade."
"Kong Xi didn't think so either, because the house they built originally belonged to the brigade, and if they had anything to do, the brigade captain and secretary would make it convenient for them.
They built their own houses to live in, which gave the villagers the feeling that they were not locals of the Red Flag Brigade, and the villagers did not think that their rejection was as severe as their rejection of other educated youths."
Lin Jinxing opened his mouth several times to say something, but for the sake of his friends, he reminded him: "Our house now has many empty rooms, so be careful of other educated youths borrowing the house to live in."
Zhang Tao was surprised and said: "Isn't it possible?"
Everyone doesn’t recognize educated youth, so why would educated youth borrow their house to live in?
Lin Jinxing raised his eyebrows and said: "Why can't it be done? Everyone is not an educated youth. Only educated youths and educated youths should keep their mouths shut. If anyone wants to move out of the villagers' homes, we will definitely be the first to think of us.
I will talk to Kong Xi about that matter when I have time. It would be best if no one brings it up. I would like to ask if someone can bring it up so that we can think about how to deal with it in advance."
