Floating
The compensation for the demolition has arrived, and families in the village have begun packing up their belongings in preparation for moving.
Since the stock in the store could not be cleared out in a short time, my uncle told her to move to the temporary housing. Since she lived alone at home anyway, she could just free up some space in the living room to store things. Chen Jin thought about it and agreed. After the villagers moved to their new homes, they might need to buy a lot of daily necessities. She could set up a small store at home. It just so happened that my aunt's clothing store was in no need of staff, and Tian Miao had nothing to do, so she called her over to help.
There are still a lot of things to tidy up at home. The sofa, coffee table, and kitchen utensils have all been replaced in the past two or three years. They are still quite new. It would be a waste to just throw them away. But the temporary housing was small and the resettlement houses were still under construction. She wanted to move all her things away, but there was nowhere to put them.
I still have to buy a suite quickly.
Both the transit housing and resettlement housing are located in Jinxiu Community, and the transit housing is the one that has been built and renovated in the first phase. The community is a bit far away from them. It is located at the junction of Xicheng District and Nancheng District and belongs to Nancheng District.
There was not much to pack at my uncle's place. The house had been built and renovated but he had hardly lived in it, so the things were directly moved to the temporary house, but he still lived in the house he had bought before. There are a lot of things in my third uncle's house, but they clean up quickly. My cousins all have jobs and have returned to work. Only her cousin Chen Yongan was left at home. After packing up his things, he was sent to her house to help.
"Third sister, you have too many books, sell them." Chen Yongan's scalp tingled when he saw the wall of bookshelves in the study: It's too scary, did his third sister grow up eating books?
Chen Jin gave him a slap on the head, "It's almost time to sell it to you, don't be lazy, pack it in the box quickly. Remember to collect it in order and write the serial number on the box."
Seeing Chen Yongan pouting and sulking, Chen Jin said, "When I'm done with my work, I'll treat you to a delicious meal. You can choose whatever you want."
"That's better." Chen Yongan hummed twice, pulled the box over and started working.
He has now given up on the latest game console. As long as his parents don't agree, his third sister will never buy it for him. It’s too difficult! I really want to take the college entrance examination as soon as possible and graduate quickly!
It took a whole day to finally pack up all the things that Chen Jin's family wanted to take to the temporary housing. There weren’t many things belonging to my mother at home. The photo albums and some ornaments they had bought were packed and placed together with her six boxes of books. She had no plans to take these things to the turnover house.
The temporary housing was only used for transition and she had no plan to live there permanently. She still wants to buy a house near NTU. However, let's see how things go next semester. If she can stay on campus successfully, she will live in Nanjing University permanently. If not, then buy another one near your workplace.
Taking stock, there are still a lot of things to do during the summer vacation: moving and learning to drive. But the most urgent thing now is that she needs to buy a suite to house these things.
My third uncle and aunt are going to the bank today, and she has to go too. She has to plan carefully how to use her savings.
A few days ago, Aunt Zhou made a big scene at home. The village chief and the old party secretary went to mediate, but there is no final result yet. But what is certain is that Aunt Zhou wants to separate from the family and live on her own. Now they are arguing about how much she can get.
When Chen Jin went out, she saw that Aunt Zhou's fruit and vegetable shop had also been demolished. Aunt Zhou was carrying a bag of old clothes out to throw away. She seemed to be in a good mood when she saw Chen Jin. She greeted her with a smile on her face: "Are you going out to play?"
"Yes." Chen Jin wanted to ask Aunt Zhou whether the family business had been divided up, but she was afraid that people would think she was just there to watch the fun, so she was too embarrassed to ask.
Aunt Zhou didn't think too much about it. She asked her what to do with the things in the canteen. When she learned that she was going to take them to the transitional housing, she smiled and said, "That's great. When we move there, we don't have to find a place to buy things. Hey, everyone in our village has been allocated a building, right?"
"That's right. They only let us choose one house." Chen Jin said, "My family is small, so we got a one-bedroom and one-living room house on the second floor." The families of my eldest uncle and third uncle were allocated three-bedroom and one-living room houses, on the first and third floors respectively, based on the number of people registered on their household registration. My eldest cousin Chen Yongcheng and his wife and children are all registered in the city and are not included in my uncle’s household registration book.
"Hey, my house is also on the second floor, 202, how about you?"
"My home is 201!" Chen Jin said happily, "We are neighbors!"
"Haha, it will be convenient for our family to buy things in the future."
Since they were neighbors, there would be many opportunities to meet each other in the future. Aunt Zhou said she had to pack up her things and left.
When her third uncle and aunt came to see her, they also asked whether Aunt Zhou's family issues had been resolved. Chen Jin: "It should have been resolved. I didn't ask much." There are three sizes of houses on one floor of the turnover housing. 1-2 is a one-bedroom and one-living room, 3-5 is a two-bedroom and one-living room, and 6-8 is a three-bedroom and one-living room. Therefore, Aunt Zhou's house has one bedroom and one living room, which means that she and the old couple do not live together.
In theory, the temporary housing is allocated according to the number of people registered in each household. Some families have many people and are allocated more than one house. For example, in Aunt Zhou's family, her daughter is married, and the household registration book only lists her and her husband, her son, and her old couple. They should be allocated a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment.
After what happened the past two days, it is impossible for us to live together. It should be that the village chief went to find someone and finally divided the land out for Aunt Zhou and her family of three.
Chen Jin and his aunt took the bus to the nearest Agricultural Bank branch in Nancheng District.
Both of them were big customers with deposits of several million. Not long after they sat down, the branch manager invited them to the VIP room.
Chen Jin wants to apply for another bank card and divide the money into two parts. One part of 4 million yuan, he has no idea about it for now and will just keep it and earn interest. The remaining portion of more than 4 million was for her to buy a house.
"It's not difficult to apply for a bank card, but it's a big loss to just keep the money and earn interest. You can consider buying government bonds. The annual interest rate of government bonds for three years is 10% now..."
The compensation amount that my third uncle's family received was only slightly less than that of Chen Jin, and they had a large amount of savings. They originally thought that it would be enough for them just by earning the interest, but the bank president talked about many benefits of buying government bonds, and they were tempted.
They knew nothing about investment before, and Chen Jin, a Chinese major student, only knew the basics. When listening to the president's introduction, she couldn't help but want to buy some for investment. But she came to her senses quickly: Don't touch something you don't understand, because who knows whether it's a big pie or a big pit.
Seeing that the third uncle was about to give in, Chen Jin patted his arm and said, "Third uncle, we don't understand treasury bond investment or anything like that. Why don't we go back and ask the eldest uncle first?"
Third Aunt also came to her senses at this time and said quickly, "Yes, yes, yes, we don't understand either. Let's go back and ask Big Brother. If it's suitable, we'll come back and buy it."
"Oh, yes, I do want to ask." Third uncle also came back to his senses. He was just elated by what the bank president said. Fortunately, Chen Jin was there, otherwise he might have spent 100,000 yuan.
Even though the opportunity was about to come to their mouth, it flew away. The bank president still had a smiling face and said it was okay and told them to come back to him after they had thought it over. Later, when they went to apply for a new card, the bank president personally accompanied them. Coming out of the bank, the three of them each carried a bag of rice and a barrel of oil.
"Luckily, you are here, Third Sister." Third Uncle said thankfully, "After hearing what the bank president said, I wanted to buy it for at least 100,000 yuan."
Chen Jin: "I also thought about it a little bit. If this thing is so good, why is it our turn to buy it? The president said that this year's treasury bonds were issued at the beginning of this year, and now they are implementing value preservation, plus the value preservation subsidy rate, so it should be more valuable, right? Anyway, I don't believe that other rich people are stupid. Oh, I don't understand this either. Let's ask my uncle."
Her uncle is knowledgeable and knows many people, so perhaps he should know what is going on.
My third aunt sighed, "We said we were afraid that Yongfei and Yongan would become arrogant after having money, but you see, we adults can't help but become arrogant too."
Carrying things in their hands, they did not stay in the city for long and went directly to the bus stop to wait for the bus.
Maybe he had made plans, Chen Jin now wanted to learn how to drive, get his driving license, and then buy a car. It’s too sunny, my eyelids are drooping.
Suddenly, he was startled by a shrill horn. Chen Jin glared over and found that it was an acquaintance. He rolled his eyes at the driver: Crazy man!
Uncle San saw her actions. The young man driving the car even looked at Chen Jin. After the car passed by, he asked, "Is the one driving the car just now your classmate?"
Chen Jin was too embarrassed to say that the crazy man was her ex-boyfriend. It was really embarrassing to have dated him for three years. "My high school classmate, also from Nanjing University. He's crazy."
Third uncle was silent. Generally speaking, when Chen Jin classified someone as "crazy", it meant that the person was really not that good. But my third uncle thought more.
When Chen Jin was admitted to the No. 3 Middle School with a score in the top 100 in the city, the whole family was very happy. But later they found out that most of the students in the No. 3 Middle School were from the city, and those like Chen Jin who were admitted from the countryside were easily excluded. Although Chen Jin said every time she came back that she got along well with her classmates and no one bullied her, they didn't believe it. He thought that the man just now was the one who had a conflict with Chen Jin.
"You're showing off by driving a junky car. Third sister, now that you have your driver's license, go buy a Hubentou!"
Chen Jin was shocked. Her third uncle was really arrogant. A Mercedes-Benz car must be worth almost a million! The money she had was not enough to build it.
"My budget for buying a car is only 200,000 yuan." Chen Jin felt that 200,000 yuan was already a lot. Now houses in especially good locations in the city center cost several thousand yuan per square meter, which is enough to buy a good house.
"Uncle, Third Brother is also learning to drive. Why don't you buy him one? He has to run business now, so it would be convenient for him to have a car."
My third uncle has a complicated attitude towards the savings in his hands, and he switches back and forth between frugality and luxury.
There is no way. Suddenly having a few million more money in hand is really a test.
The next morning, when her third cousin Chen Yongfei came home and saw her, he was very happy and said, "Third sister, I will remember your kindness."
What? She didn't do anything!
