My uncle has no elders and no brothers or sisters, so he was not busy on the first day of the new year. Instead, he had another lively gathering at home and carefully considered various aspects of buying a house in the imperial capital.
Ding Wei knew that the imperial capital's control over household registration was not so tight now, and Haitao's younger brother had a natural advantage in moving his household registration to a university. If he didn't hurry up, he might not be able to do it even if he became rich in the future.
In addition, the current house is a good investment, and when faced with her aunt and uncle who inquired carefully, she did everything in detail.
It was rare that I even contacted editor Guo Mu during the day.
…
Editor Guo Mu was not surprised by this.
Ever since she met Ding Wei, she seemed to be in trouble. She would always receive messages from him in the middle of the night, so that when she saw the messages she sent later, she felt that the other party had bad intentions.
She originally had no time during the Chinese New Year, but unexpectedly her useless son came back from abroad and unexpectedly took a foreign wife with him.
How can this be done?
My foreign daughter-in-law has a farm in Australia, and she particularly likes the government's child care subsidies. She doesn't understand that China not only has no subsidies but also has family planning.
She said in Chinese:
"Mom, I know that China attaches great importance to children. Don't worry, my mother gave birth to 6 children, and I can do it too."
"I love Yang so much, and I love children too."
"You can also live on my farm after you get married..."
…
Listen, what a considerate daughter-in-law she is.
If it were an old lady, and if she heard that she was willing to have 6 children when she went abroad, she would have to go home and burn incense at her grave.
But editor Guo Mu couldn’t accept it.
The couple works in Didu, has a house, and has all the workplace insurance... Traveling abroad is okay, but who wants to live abroad for a long time?
Besides, the old aunt still wanted her son to stay in the country, but the foreign wife spoke so considerately, had a high nose, big eyes, fair skin, and was so direct in her sweet words——
This made her very depressed.
I can't say bad things to you, and I can't agree happily.
In desperation, I was alone in the bedroom sighing.
…
She doesn't agree with it, and her husband naturally disagrees even more.
According to traditional Chinese thinking, it would be more secure to have children by your side when you grow old.
Although the two of them have followed the trend of thinking and do not intend to put the pressure of retirement on their children, but their son will settle abroad in the future, so it will not be easy for him to come back?
That's so hard to accept.
If you have a headache and miss your son, I don’t know how long it will take from applying for a visa to flying.
At this moment, the couple was worried together.
Should we be stronger parents? Should we force them to break up now? But they can’t do it——
Emotions are a child's freedom. Do they want to keep their son by their side emotionally? But they can still control it rationally.
This is the most painful.
…
Facing another inquiry from his son and daughter-in-law? A prompt tone was sent via qq, which almost temporarily rescued editor Guo Mu.
She breathed a sigh of relief? It was the first time that Ding Wei sent a message so kindly.
This life is no longer 996: Happy New Year!
Editor Guo Mu: Happy New Year! What can you say?
This life is no longer 996:......
This Life Is No Longer 996: The style of your answer is wrong - Is there anything going on during the Chinese New Year?
Ding Wei knew that editor Guo Mu was the most impatient when she asked if she was here? She asked deliberately every time? But now she didn't ask, but the other party still asked...
This is not Guomu's style.
After finally finding a place to talk, editor Guo Mu remembered Ding Wei's whimsical thoughts and couldn't help but ask:
"What if your son wants to settle abroad? Marry a foreign girl? What would you think?"
…
This life is no longer 996:......
"Then I will definitely support him on the surface, and actually try to dispel his thoughts as much as possible. Of course, if the other party really insists, then there is nothing I can do."
But overall, how safe is the country?
Can’t you ban wooden warehouses abroad? It’s even legal for you to do so, and you still have time to attack from time to time...
Are people’s lives in dire straits abroad? Sometimes it’s not nonsense.
This Life Is No More 996: Your son?
Editor Guo Mu: Yes. I talked with an Australian girl. She was very nice. She was warm and generous, and she even invited us to stay on his farm.
Ding Wei understood.
"Then do you want to ask your son? He has already bought a house in the imperial capital? Invite the girl to live in the imperial capital permanently."
"You can live here for a while before getting married to get a feel for it."
"Also? Ask your son, if you get headaches and fever in the future, is it convenient to seek medical treatment in Australia? Can you afford it financially?"
…
Ding Wei can't guarantee anything else. Anyway, she knows that foreign medical resources are quite tight.
In the United States, the starting price of an ambulance is 2,500 US dollars. Even if many people are unconscious, they will be frightened by this number.
Watching foreign blockbusters, there are always rescue helicopters, this rescue team or that 911——
These are paid.
Paid!
Rescue helicopters start at US$40,000, come on, call and make an appointment!
The time it takes to sign up and queue up for an appointment can delay a cold from a severe cold to pneumonia, and then to a miraculous recovery.
This is really no exaggeration.
The health care product market for foreign people has also developed rapidly because of this.
After thinking for a while, she added:
"You can also ask your son, since you are old and not proficient in operating some household appliances, it will inevitably cause malfunctions. Is it convenient to hire someone to repair them over there?"
Editor Guomu:???
What are these problems?
…
These days, the general outlook on the foreign environment is quite good. On the one hand, there are not so many communication channels, and on the other hand, the Internet is not overwhelming.
So many times, even if everyone knows that life abroad is not that simple, and everyone says that washing dishes abroad is hard, it is difficult to understand these details.
Ding Wei has never been abroad, so naturally she doesn't know what it is like abroad now.
But based on her memories from her previous life, she was able to ask some key daily questions.
It’s unlikely that the price of an ambulance will suddenly rise to $2,500.
What will the domestic price be in 20 years?
200 yuan.
This difference is not as big as ordinary two.
Moreover, for those who have a formal employer like Editor Guomu, medical insurance can basically cover most of them. If you stay in the imperial capital, you don’t have to worry about your future pension.
But when you go abroad, you either have to spend a lot of money to buy insurance every year, or you have to live with it.
It is not impossible to temporarily return to China for treatment, but it is not easy to adapt to changing from one place to another so quickly.
…
Editor Guo Mu was confused, but out of trust in Ding Wei, she still carefully asked the sweet lovers about the above issues.
The foreign wife did not speak, but the son was silent.
He told the truth: "That might be a little difficult."
"The drain pipe at Rosie's house was broken last year. It took two weeks to make an appointment for a repairman, but the repairman didn't bring matching materials, so we had to wait for another week."
"And medical treatment...Mom, have you forgotten the $3,000 insurance premium I have to pay every year?"
Guomu was stunned.
The acquaintance agency for my son’s study abroad arrangement was directly arranged, and the money was in place, but——
“Isn’t this money bound to the intermediary?”
"no."
The son said depressedly: "Medical resources are very precious. How can you go to the hospital just for a minor problem? An ambulance trip costs more than 1,000 US dollars."
"Medical insurance is necessary for everyone. It is cheap to buy, but these are not covered by insurance."
…
Editor Guo Mu fell silent.
She never imagined that the two of them would be like this while studying in the United States.
But at this moment, he still asked his son’s girlfriend Rosie: “Is it the same in Australia?”
Rossi shook his head: "In Australia, in most cases, if you have any questions, you can go to the pharmacy by yourself. Our pharmacy has a full range of medicines."
"And there are also home appliance repairmen in our town. You just need to use a pickup truck and it will be repaired in less than three days! It's very convenient!"
"Our government provides subsidies for childbirth and will provide milk powder and baby products. If you have more children at home, you can get up to 1,500 Australian dollars per month!"
…
After hearing this, Guo Mu's husband also gasped.
"Oh my god, why is life abroad like this?"
Guomu also instantly understood the meaning of what Ding Wei said.
She couldn't imagine what it was like to have a home appliance repaired for three days.
I bought a 10-year-old washing machine for my family. Just one phone call and a worker would come to repair it on the second day at the latest.
If you don't want to find after-sales service, you can even find someone from a repair shop in an alley right then and there.
And medical treatment...
I originally planned to go abroad for fun and rent a house to live for a long time, but now it seems I might as well forget it.
What's wrong with the imperial capital?
She didn't say much else, just smiled and asked Rosie:
"Thank you for the invitation. You are a great girl and I like you very much - would you like to stay in the Imperial Capital for a while during the holidays?"
She was afraid that foreigners were used to living alone and could not bear the situation of a large family together. She even said:
"I bought a new house for my son. It has been renovated but I have not moved in yet. Are you willing to experience it for a while?"
…
My son was a little hesitant - he took a leave of absence for a month.
But I originally planned to stay at Rossi's house for half a month.
But Rosie was already very happy.
"Oh my god! You actually prepared a house for Yang! I want to live there! Is that okay?"
Seeing her happy state, Guomu also breathed a sigh of relief:
"Of course, you are destined to form a family. If you are used to living in the Imperial City, you can also consider living in the Imperial City for a long time."
The son opened his mouth and was about to say something. Guo Mu looked at him with a smile and had already made up his mind secretly——
The environment abroad is so bad and living there is so unaccustomed, so we should try our best to keep our son in the imperial capital if we can.
…
Guomu's husband was responsible for driving the happy Rosie and her son to the new house, and said to Rosie with a smile:
"If you feel uncomfortable living in it, you two can discuss the changes yourself. I still hope you have a good impression of Didu."
"certainly."
Rossi said enthusiastically: "Dad, I think you are too considerate of Yang. I will fully experience the Chinese culture."
Guo Mu's husband thought to himself: Just feel it well. Apart from the traffic jam in Dadi City, it is not better than abroad where even ambulances are very expensive.
What's the use of raising a son? I'd rather live in a girl's house than come back.
snort.
…
Here, Guo Mu, who was slightly relaxed, replied to Ding Wei's question.
"I hope Rosie can like God."
This life is no longer 996:
"Even if they don't like it now, as technology develops faster and the imperial capital becomes better and better, they will like it."
Guomu sighed: "I hope so. By the way, why are you looking for me?"
Ding Wei looked at her aunt who had been waiting for a while and asked quickly:
"I just want to ask, are there any family members in our community who are willing to sell their houses?"
There must be!
Guomu quickly said: "Yes, Lao Yang, who is across from me, is eager to trade in stocks and wants to sell his house as soon as possible."
"But this year the house has increased a bit, it's 120 square meters. The price he listed with the agency is 900,000, which probably leaves room for counter-offering."
120 square meters, they bought it from the unit's internal price, which is about six to seven hundred thousand.
The price of Ding Wei's house is also 680,000 according to the unit price.
After calculating this, the price of this house is indeed affordable.
You can get it for about 880,000 to 900,000 yuan.
She turned to look at her aunt:
"There is no formal property management company for the unit housing, but the advantages are that the property fee is cheap, the community environment is good, and it is not a particularly good key school district housing, but the surrounding facilities and schools are also quite good."
"120 square meters is the actual area. It's the same as our house, but the rooms are more compact, maybe four bedrooms."
"There is an elevator."
If it's opposite Guomu's new house...it should be the west door on the 16th floor.
"The disadvantage is that you may not be able to get a loan and you have to pay in full."
"After all, brother Haitao probably doesn't have the ability to lend money in the eyes of banks."
…
The pros and cons were explained as clearly as possible, but even though my aunt and uncle were prepared, they were still frightened by the number of 900,000.
"900,000..."
Ding Wei sighed: "There is no way, this is the current housing price in the imperial capital. Now I don't know if I can change the first-hand contract. If I can't change it, I'm afraid there will be some room for taxes and fees."
On the contrary, my uncle was more courageous:
"Weiwei, you said the house you bought is also in this community, so it should be about the same."
That's definitely the same.
Guomu bought two apartments at that time, and they were both selected according to similar standards.
"How much did the renovation cost?"
Ding Wei did the math: "I found a reliable company. Because I have helped others, I only charged the cost price. The complete set will cost about 80,000 yuan."
More budget is used to buy the same furniture, appliances and other things.
In fact, if it was only used for residential decoration, Lu Cheng would have received less money.
…
In front of her, she was kissing her aunt, and she had obvious intentions. Ding Wei explained the details as clearly as possible.
"The house has been divided into five rooms and is now rented to a company. The rent is paid annually, averaging 4,300 yuan per month."
The five rooms are all as fully furnished as possible, and this is the largest expenditure on decoration.
"And based on today's housing prices, they might even go up a little bit every year."
4,300 yuan, 12 months, the annual rent is 50,000 yuan.
Auntie quickly settled the matter in her mind.
The purchase and renovation of the house were calculated as 1 million. Although it emptied their entire family fortune, Haitao still had four years left to graduate from university, so they could still collect rent for three years no matter what.
This is a lot more cost-effective.
In addition, they always have to buy a house. Now that they are still young, they don’t have to worry about retirement and illness. They gritted their teeth and took out the money, and they are still making a steady stream of money every month...
If there is an urgent need for money, Ermei and Haihe can probably provide some support...
Finally, the couple looked at each other:
"purchase!"
…
He said he wanted to buy it, but actually he was still crying inside. Zhou Haitao was jumping up and down on the side.
"Mom, I'm not in a hurry to get married. Why are you buying a house so early?"
"Mom, I don't necessarily know where I will work then. What if I go to another city?"
"Mom, it's really unnecessary!"
Who knew that my aunt and uncle had not made up their minds, but now that they were ready, they naturally had the courage to wait for the price of the house to increase.
"If you have to work elsewhere then, we will sell the house in the Imperial Capital and buy it for you there."
"I don't believe it. Where else in the world can housing prices rise faster than in the Imperial Capital."
Ding Wei was speechless.
If you only look at the price and don't pick the location, it really does exist.
But no matter what, buying a house now is definitely a good deal.
…
The aunt looked at her silly son and said, "If you don't get married, then you can rent a house to live by yourself."
"When the time comes, please ask your sister to find someone to decorate your house and make it look like hers. Mom will also hire an agency to find a way to rent it out. If you don't live in it, you can rent it for a few more years!"
"Otherwise, it's up to you to be able to afford a house in the Year of the Monkey and the Horse in the Month!"
While still thinking about it, I pushed my husband:
"My employer will allocate houses next year. I won't sell my quota. I'll try to save some money to buy it."
The house in their unit is sold to others, and each house purchase quota is worth 30,000 to 50,000 yuan.
After all, the prices of houses in the Imperial Capital have gone up, so why not in Jiangzhou?
If houses don’t rise, the RMB will lose value.
At worst, I'll sell it and buy something else.
…
If my aunt gets a house and wants to rent it out, Ding Wei can definitely promise this:
"It's okay, auntie, if you just do the decoration like mine, it can be done in a month."
"They are all existing houses. If the house is aired for a while, it will not be a problem to rent it out."
With so many employees at DreamWeaver Literature Network, food and accommodation are always provided.
As for the decoration, of course I still turn to Lu Cheng.
After all, her house has been rented out for so long, but she has never heard of any decoration problems. It seems that the quality is excellent.
…
Now that the decision has been made, Ding Wei quickly told Guo Mu:
"Then please help me negotiate the price, or find an agent to negotiate the price. I will give you a deposit of 20,000 yuan first."
Guomu was a little puzzled: "Your family wants to buy a house?"
However, he is quite confident when it comes to negotiating prices:
"Lao Yang is eager to enter the stock market. There should be some discussion on housing prices. I will help you find out when the time comes."
"By the way, if you are sure to buy it, do it as soon as possible. He is in a hurry to use the money so he can negotiate the price."
Ding Wei quickly agreed: "Okay, they can go to the imperial capital after the fifth day of the Lunar New Year at the latest."
As for that old Yang who wants to sell his house and use the money to enter the stock market...
All I can say is that if you are lucky, you will probably be able to earn enough to buy a house before the financial crisis.
