Chapter Ninety: Jiangcun's New Consumption Perspective
The happiest person this time was none other than An Jian'an.
Hearing that each of the brothers had chosen more than one plot of land for their homes...
An Jian'an felt that in the future, his brothers could live in the village just like before, within easy reach of each other.
And she also escaped from the gossipy old women in the village.
Yuan Qionghua has always been a very efficient person, and her requirements for renting a house are very simple.
First, the house is big enough; second, it's convenient to get in and out.
In addition, renting a house is not as standardized as it used to be.
Even on Saturday, they quickly finalized the decision.
The family was extremely satisfied with the small building, which was clearly newly built and had two and a half stories.
After seeing the homeowner out, An Jian'an addressed the crowd who were touring upstairs and downstairs:
"This house was originally built for his own family to live in."
"It's a pity that my son only wants to live in the new building after he got married."
"The whole family didn't even move in; they went to live in an apartment building."
"No wonder there isn't a single piece of furniture in the house!" Yuan Qionghua had already checked; the entire house was completely empty.
However, that is precisely why.
The rent for this house wasn't much more expensive than what An Jian'an paid back then.
Moreover, the house is spacious enough.
As a temporary measure, it's enough for the three brothers and the elderly to live in.
Of course, the three brothers' families combined.
The total price was still much higher than the house An Jian'an originally rented.
The whole family was increasingly satisfied with what they saw.
They've already started discussing how to find a car to bring the luggage over.
There's also furniture.
Although several rooms that were originally used to entertain guests have been cleaned.
But the furniture in the house remained largely untouched.
The house is currently empty, which is a good opportunity to move some commonly used items over.
As for the rest, we can only ask someone to go to the village and collect them.
When the group returned to the village, the sun was still high in the sky.
The street at the entrance of the village was also unusually lively, with three cars moving slower than walking.
People from Jiangcun who saw them return would occasionally come over to greet them and chat.
Bi Lizhu didn't want to deal with these things.
He simply asked his daughter-in-law and daughters to get off the bus together.
Seeing this, the people in the other two cars also got off.
When the group had shaken off the enthusiastic villagers and left the village street...
Just then, I saw that car speed out again.
An Songxiang immediately inquired with Yuan Qionghua.
Yuan Qionghua turned her head to look at the luxury car, which was also being squeezed and moving slowly, and couldn't help but purse her lips:
"That's the car that the head of security's son bought."
"Is it really from our village? My daughter Xiaoyu told me it's worth over 200,000, almost 300,000 yuan." Bi Lizhu sighed with emotion.
Such a nice car is not something you see often, even in Rongdi!
"That's because he learned it from his maternal grandfather's family." Yuan Qionghua looked down on him even more.
Originally, she heard from the villagers that the car was very expensive.
I really didn't expect it to be that expensive.
With that money, you could take out a loan and buy several houses.
When you rent it out or resell it later, wouldn't it be a great deal?
"His maternal grandfather's house?" Bi Lizhu tried to think for a while, but still couldn't recall anything.
An Songyu did have some guesses:
"Was it the family that came to our house that day... the one who said they married into our family from Lin Village?"
“Yes!” Yuan Qionghua nodded approvingly, then explained carefully:
"The security chief's wife is from Lin Village."
“Her entire maternal family was demolished during the second phase of demolition in Lin Village.”
“Last time, even though she came to your house with you, there were actually only three families who bought houses in Happiness Garden.”
"Uncle Wenlin, Uncle Wenhua, and Jianxing?" Bi Lizhu could easily guess this.
Yuan Qionghua nodded affirmatively and continued:
"Given the example of the security chief's family in Youlin Village, they bought that car for their son as soon as they received their demolition compensation."
"I heard that it was already bought by the child of my brother's family."
"As for buying houses, they all said that once the resettlement housing is completed, each family will receive at least several units based on the size of their houses, so there is absolutely no need to buy one."
"In addition, their family also invited other families from the village committee to go to Hong Kong and bought a lot of things back with them."
"How could I not have called you?" An Songyu asked, somewhat disbelieving.
Just from how clearly my aunt knows this, I can tell.
Such a good thing, I guess people have asked her for it quite a few times.
Sure enough, Yuan Qionghua nodded with a hint of disdain: "How could I not call them?"
"Ever since the first compensation payment arrived, the phones of the village committee members have probably been ringing non-stop."
“In the past, we could easily wander around the same village.”
"If you have something to say, come and talk to me in person."
"Now, no matter how far away, I call!"
"They're just burning money."
“Lizhu! It’s definitely the right thing to do for the children to buy a house. Whether they rent it out or sell it later, at least the money will still be there.”
"If you were like them... buying cars and gold would be one thing."
"She also buys clothes, perfume, cosmetics, and bags!"
"I won't say anything if it's actually useful in that situation."
"If you're destined to get rich, what's wrong with treating yourself better?"
"But they dress up so beautifully every day, and carry bags that are said to cost tens of thousands of yuan with one pointed finger, just to walk on this dusty road in our village?"
"How about we get a few people together to play mahjong?"
"Then what difference does life make?"
"You can't say that!" An Songyu suppressed a laugh, glanced at Bi Lizhu's expression, and only after finding nothing amiss did she quickly say:
"Whether it's clothes, bags, makeup, or perfume, it's all about what you like!"
"That would have to be something they genuinely like!" Yuan Qionghua said, even more helplessly.
"But what they like isn't these things themselves."
"It's more like the feeling of money being piled on you."
If that's the case, An Songyu can't agree with it either.
However, she was somewhat interested in the villagers' shopping trips to Hong Kong.
An Songxiang had been listening intently since just now.
Unfortunately, Yuan Qionghua did not actually go to Hong Kong with them.
What we see is not the shopping process, but the result of their shopping.
When An Songyu asked her in detail, Yuan Qionghua couldn't explain it very clearly either.
She looked at her two nieces with some concern and asked hesitantly:
"If Xiaoyu and Xiaoxiang are interested, why don't you go with them..."
"No, no thanks. If you're really interested, we can go by ourselves."
"It's better to avoid going with that group."
They're having a great time right now.
"When buying things, I never care about what's right, I only care about what's expensive."
"There's no point in buying like this."
An Songyu nodded in agreement, secretly watching An Songxiang's thoughtful expression.
They didn't continue on that topic.
