Chapter 167 One Hundred and Two Hundred and Seventy Thousand
"I observed some phenomena when I went back to my hometown this time. Aren't many people trying to find work in other places where there are more factories and more money? I feel that the land at home is becoming more and more empty.
Many elderly people will choose to carefully take care of some crops with higher value, and then choose to plant some crops that are easy to care for in other fields.
So, I thought about planting some crops on my mother's land that don't require much management, and we would go and tidy up the land sometimes, and there's nothing we can do about it even if she says she's busy.
Then find her a job that allows her to take care of the baby, so that she can be really busy and see the benefits. If she doesn't have enough time, she will be less likely to find trouble.
I was also thinking about how to deal with my mother some time ago, but this method probably won't work on her. See if it's appropriate, and it can reduce the chances of being disturbed or calculated, and can actually leave some benefits for them.
To be honest, as long as we are still alive, no matter how many problems our parents have, we can't help but take care of them, even for the sake of our own reputation and that of our children."
Reputation is not something you can really give up just because you don't want it. Unless you are determined to fight against the world and really don't need anyone's cooperation or contact in your life, you can't break free from the shackles of these two words.
Even if you explain what your parents did to you, after a long time, what you will get in return is not understanding and sympathy.
Shi Qingqing had been deeply troubled by this, so she naturally understood this. Now she also understood even more that one-fifth of her husband's behavior in her dream was full of helplessness.
But without realizing it, the other four-fifths were worn away and I did not continue along the route in my dream.
"Okay, I'll find a chance to contact the Women's Committee secretary." Shi Qingqing still needed to consider a few details and words.
But she thought Zhao Fengnian's suggestion was still pretty good.
Before this incident, Zhao Fengnian had talked to his cousin twice, and Xiang'er came over and said that she would also prefer to go to the city, as people in the city are willing to spend money.
The third time Zhao Fengnian brought up the topic of family life with his cousin, his cousin planned to go and take a look at the environment in that area and check the rent.
Shi Qingqing went with them.
This time, by chance, the few of them found a local uncle who owned a house. He owned an old factory that was built more than ten years ago. Due to its remote location, he had neither the spare money nor the time to renovate it, so the factory looked basically the same as it did more than ten years ago.
It's nothing more than that the steel and metal left over from the past were stolen and sold, and occasionally a homeless person would live there for a while and leave behind broken mattresses, socks, shoes and some household garbage.
It looks worse.
But this old factory building has enough space to build a primary school with a lawn and a runway, and the rent is 100 yuan a month.
It's outrageously cheap.
If you calculate it by area, it is indeed outrageously cheap.
Shi Qingqing thought they could wait a little longer, but Zhao Fengnian asked directly whether there was any conflict in the old factory. He trusted his "uncle" and did not want to find out from anyone else.
The old man was silent for a moment, and he said that someone had set up a temporary casino here. If an acquaintance of his hadn’t come here to play twice and lost so much that he got angry and mentioned it to the old man, he wouldn’t have known that there had been several times when someone had organized a card game here.
If there were people living here, they would have to move to another place, which is better than leaving it empty.
"One hundred is really not expensive. It's enough for our two families to live together. Even if we don't live together, we will have a place to rest when we come to the city or something like that in the future."
Zhao Fengnian agreed with his wife's opinion. Whether he was selling things for his cousin or selling mountain products himself, the city with more convenient transportation and well-connected roads was definitely better than a small fishing village.
After discussion and seeing the old man's ID, several people rented the old factory together and got the keys to the front and back doors.
The old man smiled and took out another certificate. He also had an apartment with three bedrooms, a living room and a bathroom in the city center. There was a particularly heavy desk in one of the rooms. It was said that it was moved from a bankrupt foreign guest hotel. There were many mahogany furniture in the room.
This can be sold or rented.
The rent is two hundred and eighty yuan a month.
Living in the ancestral hall in the village, two rooms plus a kitchen can cost twenty yuan a month, but in the city it would cost nearly three hundred yuan.
One month's stay in the city is enough to live in the village for a year.
But the quality of these furniture is really good, you can move in directly after just wiping off the dust.
The three-story building is neither too high nor too low. There is a school behind it, the city’s largest hospital two streets ahead, and a park a little way out of the back door of the community.
If her child grew up here... that would be something she wouldn't have dared to imagine in her dreams in her previous life.
These furniture alone are exactly the same as the furnishings of well-off families in the Hong Kong and Taiwan dramas I used to watch on TV.
Even if it’s released another twenty years later, people will only say it’s a bit old-fashioned.
If they buy it, the price is RMB 270,000 and all the items will belong to Shi Qingqing and the others.
Shi Qingqing's heart was moved, madly moved.
When Guo Yumei mentioned that some people were setting up a group to earn money for demolition, she paid a little attention to the house prices.
Nowadays, the average price of urban housing is around 1,700 yuan, 6,000 to 7,000 yuan in Shanghai, and more than 9,000 yuan in new districts. The capital's current price is more than 4,000 yuan per square meter. Leaving aside the two iconic metropolises, their well-developed urban area also has complete supporting facilities around it, so 270,000 yuan is really not expensive.
The estimated area is about 120 square meters or more.
Two of the three rooms have balconies, the kitchen has a huge window, and even the bathroom has a clear window. Except for the study room which has no windows, the other rooms have good lighting.
The only problem was they didn't have twenty-seven.
Even 70,000 would probably be a stretch.
"We rent it." Zhao Fengnian said.
Shi Qingqing was stunned. She almost thought her voice had changed.
Because this is what she wanted to say.
"Wife, we rented this house and you like it very much, don't you? The wardrobes in these two rooms are really big, enough to hold all our clothes, clothes for spring, summer, autumn and winter, bedding, and enough for our future children." Zhao Fengnian could see that Shi Qingqing liked this house.
But they couldn't take out 270,000 yuan all at once for the time being.
But he felt that maybe next year, maybe the year after, maybe in two years... Anyway, they would have it, and they would be able to buy it within ten years after leasing it.
The old man didn't expect to be able to sell the house just by meeting a young couple with good temperament on the street.
But the fact that they were willing to rent it proved that he had a good eye.
His ancestors were compradors, so he was influenced by them to some extent.
After some discussion, both parties gained something.
The landlord collects rent, and the payment is made every six months. After six months, if there is no problem, it will be converted to an annual payment.
The price they had to pay was to clear out their own personal belongings within half a month, because Shi Qingqing and Zhao Fengnian had a lot of belongings.
