opening
On May 1st, it is a good day to go out, open a business, and make a fortune... In short, everything is good.
Chen Jin set the alarm to wake up at six in the morning. When she got up, she stretched and kicked, and almost kicked Daju, who was curled up at the end of the bed, off. Chen Jin was so scared that she quickly got up and rushed to the bathroom before Daju was fully awake, pretending that everything had nothing to do with her.
Daju has been getting more and more demanding recently. He first moved his nest to the bedroom, and then tested the waters little by little. Now he has occupied a corner at the end of the bed. I'm afraid he will compete with her for pillows and bed in the future.
Thinking that she would have to follow her uncle to cut the ribbon at the opening today, she set an early alarm and got dressed.
Recently, Daju likes the thin green grass planted in the front yard. She has kind of forgotten how the master who came to plant it that day introduced it, and she can’t remember what the name of the grass is, but Daju likes it very much. Now, whenever she is at home, she has to leave a gap between the front and back doors so that it can run back and forth between the front and back yards.
Now he's hiding in that pile of grass and jumping around.
"Daju, let's go." Chen Jin stood at the gate with his hands on his hips. "I'll shout three times, one, two, three!"
Forget about leaving. Anyway, Shen Baichuan is at home this morning and will return to Hanlin Garden after going to the company in the afternoon. You can let Daju go out with Shen Baichuan in the afternoon. Or maybe, it just doesn't go out. It will miss the fun anyway, which is its loss!
Chen Jin rolled down the window and slowly fastened his seat belt. I greeted Shen Baichuan who came back from a morning run, and agreed to meet downstairs in Hanlin Garden at a certain time tomorrow.
Just as she was about to start the car, a flash of yellow came in, jumped directly onto her legs, stepped on her several times, then moved to the passenger seat and sat upright.
Shen Baichuan found it funny, the cat that Chen Jin raised was just as quirky as her.
"Let's go, see you tomorrow." Chen Jin waved and rolled up the car window, and Shen Baichuan's reply of "See you tomorrow" just floated in before the car window was closed. Chen Jin rubbed Daju's head with his hands itching, "Let's go!"
Ever since the big orange cat was sitting in the passenger seat, she didn't dare open the car window completely to let in the air, for fear that it would suddenly get a brain tic and jump out. It’s scary to think about it.
I bought breakfast at a breakfast shop on Wutong Road, stopped on the roadside to eat breakfast, and then headed straight to the suburbs of Xicheng District.
Driving all the way and passing by Xiuli Community, Chen Jin deliberately slowed down the car and took a look at all the shops outside Xiuli Community. Every shop has its owner open for business.
Aunt Zhou's Xiangxiang Fruit Shop stands out among all the shops because of its catchy name and colorful signboard, and it is hard not to notice it.
There is quite a lot of people coming in and out, so there are quite a few tenants living in Xiuli Community.
In fact, Xiuli Community can be renamed: Qiaodong Village Rental Community.
The Rose Garden is where the villagers’ residences are concentrated in Qiaodong Village.
Drive another fifteen minutes from Xiuli Community and you will reach the suburbs of Xicheng District.
Although it is called a suburb, in fact, after two years of development, this place has changed a lot. There are many more high-rise buildings rising from the ground, and squares, kindergartens and primary schools for nearby communities are gradually emerging.
Four years ago, this was a large wasteland overgrown with weeds. Two years ago, this was a bare flat land with circles marked out.
The real estate project developed by my uncle's company is called "Xicheng Garden."
A stage was set up in front of the community, with a large red curtain on it that read "Grand Opening of Xicheng Home"... There was a lion dance team preparing next to it, and the host and the people setting up the stage were busy. Chen Jin followed the staff's instructions to park the car, and then went directly to the sales hall.
As soon as I arrived, I saw my aunt and uncle-in-law. Fortunately, they were not the only ones there. In addition to my eldest uncle's family, people from my second and third uncle's families were also there, and my youngest aunt came too. She was glad that she had dressed up, otherwise, it would have looked ugly if she was the only one dressed sloppily while everyone else was dressed so formally.
The eldest aunt called her over, then pulled her to look at it, and said, "This is the store's signature style, and Third Sister looks best in it. I think we don't even need to find a model to take the photos, we can just let Third Sister take the photos."
Ah... this is indeed an exaggeration.
However, all elders are like this. When they praise their own children, they always brag about them to the point of exaggerating them to the sky.
My eldest uncle and second cousin are the busiest. They take the company's people to check around, answer the phone, and meet some business friends.
While it was still early, everyone went to take a look at the specially renovated apartments.
"Third sister, have you been busy at work recently? You didn't even come to my wedding banquet." Chen Jin took two steps back and gave the car keys to his second cousin who came over to ask for them. Then he was stopped by his aunt who was lagging behind the others.
In fact, what’s the point of asking this question specifically? Shouldn't everyone just keep it in mind, and then no one should bother each other, and just be ordinary relatives quietly from now on?
Walking side by side with her, her uncle said to her with a smile, "When your mother was alive, we adults often visited each other. We are all family. You should come to our house more often when you have time. By the way, you haven't met your cousin yet. I wanted to take him out today, but I was afraid that he would make trouble, so I left him at home with your aunt."
"Oh." Chen Jin nodded and said, "I really shouldn't have brought a noisy child here. It's not a good look if he's the only one crying and making a fuss on a nice day."
Who wants to take care of a child who is less than half a year old? It's not like her maternal love is so overflowing that she has nowhere to put it. She still has a big orange child at home.
"Today is a big day for my uncle's company, so let's not say anything unpleasant, right? I'll go with you to look at the house."
She left right after she finished speaking, and she didn't notice that her aunt and uncle's faces changed slightly after hearing what she said.
It's just like that. Should I sacrifice myself just to make them happy? She had rarely been to her aunt's house before, and she can't go there now. Who knows if there is someone there waiting for her to "meet" or "get to know" someone?
If she went there alone, she wouldn't dare to start a quarrel with others as she would easily suffer a loss. So, it’s better not to go to other people’s territory.
Chen Jin took a few quick steps and found that her third cousin and his friends were waiting for her. After catching up, she urged them in a low voice, "Hurry up, hurry up!"
Chen Jin ran to the front to listen to the salesperson's introduction and took a look at the four renovated suites.
There are only three buildings on sale in Xicheng Homes now, with only two apartment types: one bedroom and one living room and two bedrooms and one living room. A three-bedroom apartment is considered a large apartment, but we don’t have one now. Those who would come out to buy houses here either do so because they are attracted by the location. Now there is a bus stop just outside the community, and in the future there will be a direct subway access. There are primary and junior high schools within a ten-minute walk. Or they are young couples who have some savings but no house to settle down.
Even now, without having to wait until the welfare housing distribution policy is completely cancelled, many people are sure that they have no hope of getting housing. In addition, some of them live with a large family, so they want to buy a house and move out quickly. Renting a house is not cost-effective. It is better to grit your teeth, get a loan to buy a house, and use the rent to offset the mortgage. At least the house is still your own.
The target group is mostly people from other places who come to Fuzhou to work, especially young white-collar workers and key business personnel who work in commercial buildings in Xicheng District.
The small apartment is affordable for them with their salary, and the distance between Xicheng Home and the city center of Xicheng District is also reasonable if they take the bus. The key point is that it has been confirmed that a subway will be built here. It will be on the same subway line as the city center of Xicheng District. When the time comes, it will only take a dozen minutes to go out and take the subway to work.
There are special salespeople to introduce the house to them. The house for sale is an unfinished house, but the decoration is "free", so the price of 1,210 square meters is very cost-effective.
They just came to take a look and kill time, and it was enough to get a general idea. They didn't think about taking a serious look. After all, they didn't need to buy a house.
Liu Chengzhi asked more questions, including the down payment and monthly payment.
It is definitely impossible to buy a wedding house here.
Even if Liu Chengzhi planned to buy this place as a wedding house, Chen Ting would not be able to live here with him. This house is empty and will probably become his family's home in the end. Later, when his younger brothers and sisters and parents came to Rong City to settle down, this house should belong to their family.
Although things have come to this point, the matter between Chen Ting and Liu Chengzhi is basically a done deal, and saying more will only add to the trouble.
"Hey, I just asked you, what are you thinking about so absent-mindedly?" Chen Ting patted Chen Jin's arm, "Which designer did you find for your wedding dress? I haven't chosen yet. Do you think it's better to wear a Western-style wedding dress or a Chinese-style wedding dress?"
Chen Jin glanced at her and said, "If it's me, I'll choose both."
It’s not like you can’t afford it, so why should you put yourself in a difficult position? Marriage is a very important day in one’s life, so what’s wrong with dressing cheerfully?
"I've never been married, so I don't have any experience. Why don't you call your cousin Minmin and ask her. My big orange cat is missing, I'm going to look for it."
"No need to look for it. I saw Uncle San took it away. You are so stupid that you even brought a cat out with you."
"My big orange cat is not an ordinary cat."
"If it's not an ordinary cat, what else could it be? Could it be a lucky cat?"
"Yes, you are right, it is a lucky cat." Chen Jin responded, and ran to find his second uncle and the others, saying to them, "The demolition office and the developer will go to Qiaoxi Village tomorrow. Second uncle, third uncle, and aunt, you can also go to Qiaoxi Village with me tomorrow. I have already told my eldest uncle that he will go there tomorrow."
Several people were shocked. "Tomorrow? So soon? Is the news true or false?"
"Really? First-hand information. The people in Qiaoxi Village may not know the news yet, but they should know it soon. After all, someone will be going there tomorrow, so some news should spread."
"Okay! Then we'll take a leave tomorrow and go there. What time is good for us to go?" Only my second uncle and aunt needed to take a leave.
My third uncle and aunt were also overjoyed and exclaimed twice.
Although they knew that Qiaoxi Village would be demolished sooner or later since their household registration was frozen, they had been happy many times during this period and now that there was finally progress, they couldn't control their excitement.
"Today and tomorrow are both good days, haha!" Third uncle touched his forehead and smiled naively.
Chen Jin also put his hands on his hips and laughed: "Isn't that right?! It's a really good day!"
As someone who knew some news in advance, she could already predict the expressions of the Liu family's people at that time. This seems familiar to the situation two years ago when the village was demolished from Qiaoxi to Qiaodong.
Seeing his second uncle and second aunt blushing with excitement, Chen Jin thought of what Shen Baichuan mentioned, "relocation to the original site, compensation of houses according to actual area, and compensation calculated per person." The specific compensation method would have to be discussed with the demolition office and the developer to find out. But if it was exactly as Shen Baichuan said, then my second uncle’s hope of using the money from this demolition to buy a house in Rose Garden would probably be dashed.
But no matter what, it is good to be able to catch up with the demolition. They didn’t invest much, and they were able to get a few residential houses next to the science and technology park, which is already a huge profit. I will definitely be able to recoup my investment and make a lot of profit by selling the house in the future.
She didn't say much now, so as not to make her second uncle lose interest today.
The aunt and uncle who had been watching them silently were also shocked, but after the shock they felt regret, annoyance and envy. When Chen Jin moved his household registration to Qiaoxi Village and said he wanted to buy land, they were really short of money and did not think highly of Qiaoxi Village, so they did not invest any money in it. Otherwise, they could have also gotten a share.
Now, less than two years have passed, and Qiaoxi Village is going to be demolished? !
As far as they knew, the 400-square-meter residential land belonged to Chen Jin. One of the main buildings belonged to Chen Jin, and the other four small buildings belonged to his other brothers and sisters.
No matter what kind of compensation they can negotiate in the end, all the families of their brothers and sisters, except hers, will make a lot of money.
Even if you can only change houses, the cost of building a house in the village is not enough to buy a house of the same area in a decent community. In fact, you invest a small cost and get a big profit!
The couple was extremely upset. The younger sister and second brother didn't have that much money at the beginning, so they bought it from the eldest and third brothers, didn't they? If I had known...
It's a pity that it's hard to buy early knowledge.
The one that makes people most jealous is Chen Jin.
At such a young age, Qiaodong Village was demolished, the remaining orchards in Qiaodong Village were expropriated, and Qiaoxi Village was demolished... When they had some free time to take inventory, they found that Chen Jin had a lot of things in his hands. Not to mention the several properties, the key point is that she also bought a piece of land herself, and also invested in her eldest brother's large piece of land in Dongcheng District. The value of these two things is large enough. Chen Jin's net worth is much more than what she lets others see.
But Chen Jin's money was her own money, and they couldn't touch even a penny of it. Not to mention that other brothers and sisters protected him, the key point is that Chen Jin also got a property notarization. She was also very ruthless. Even after getting married, no one could take advantage of her and no one could touch her money.
My second aunt and my aunt were also very excited.
It’s good that everyone has experienced demolition. If they encounter demolition again now, there is no need to ask Chen Jin more about it. They themselves know the general process of demolition.
The third cousin patted Chen Jin's shoulder enviously and said, "Third sister, buy a luxury car. I can still drive it a few times."
No one was not excited, except my aunt and uncle-in-law. After all, except my aunt's family, every family had a part in it.
Chen Yongan also asked her if she wanted to travel during the summer vacation, saying that he was saving money just to go out and play.
Haha, you are addicted to going to Hainan during the winter vacation, right? But if she takes this loud speaker, this repeater, this 100,000-questions-ask machine out again, she would be a big fool.
"Let's talk about it later, during the summer vacation."
"Yes! Third sister, you must call me! I plan to do a part-time job in July. Can I go in August?"
"We'll talk about it when the time comes." In that case, she chose to go in July.
Not long after he finished speaking, the phone in Chen Jin's bag rang, and he looked at the number. Oh, that’s her grandfather’s home phone number.
"What? Hello! Chen Jin, go back to the village at nine o'clock tomorrow. The people from the demolition and relocation developer are coming. Don't say I didn't inform you this time." Old Liu's voice was very proud, and there was also the sound of opera on the phone. Old Liu snorted and said, "I knew you were talking nonsense and couldn't be trusted. Last month you said that the demolition would take a year or two. Fortunately, I didn't listen to you. Hey, you said a year or two, and they are coming tomorrow... Hey, boss, quickly call the fourth brother and inform him to come back tomorrow. Go if I tell you to. I can't order you around now, right?"
Wow, on the other end of the phone, old man Liu is speaking with great energy.
Chen Jin also smiled and suddenly asked him, "Have you really done the property notarization now?"
"Yeah...what?" Old man Liu suddenly became alert.
Chen Jin chuckled, "Nothing. You are quite smart. But I advise you not to speak too loudly to your sons and daughters-in-law. Things change over time."
Tomorrow's feng shui may shift from the father to the son, it's hard to say.
"You have done a good thing. Just ask my dad and his family to come home." She will be waiting to see the fun tomorrow. Oh my, I wonder if anyone will cry?
"Hello? Hello? It's so infuriating! This girl is always talking nonsense, never saying a single nice thing or truth!" Old man Liu cursed after hanging up the phone, but when he thought of Chen Jin's words, he felt uneasy. After thinking about it, I decided to go out and find the village chief to analyze the situation. Is this girl up to something bad again?
oh! He finally realized what was wrong: Why wasn't Chen Jin surprised at all that the demolition office and the developer would come to the village tomorrow?
She must have known it in advance again! ah! This damn girl! So annoying! There was news, but she didn't say a word!
No, he has to go find the village chief quickly!
Chen Jin hung up the phone, feeling refreshed. At this moment, someone must be getting anxious again.
When she looked up, she saw several brothers and sisters standing in a row, staring at her with complicated expressions. Chen Jin thought they were boring. "It's not the first time I've called you. What's with your expressions?"
This isn't the first time I've seen her speak to the Liu family like this.
"It's okay." The third cousin laughed. He just thought of Nie Rong who was stationed in Qiaoxi Village. During the last meal, he said that the reason he had free time was because Chen Jin said at Lao Liu's house that "it will take two to three years for the demolition"... I don't know what he will say this time.
"Third sister, are you going to Qiaoxi Village to cause trouble tomorrow? I want to go there too. Can you help me and my counselor ask for leave?"
Chen Jin raised his hand to hit him, "You're asking for leave for such a trivial matter. Do you know how hard it is for the counselor to worry about your trivial matters? You are not allowed to ask for leave! Go to school properly."
Chen Yongan pouted in dissatisfaction. When he walked back to the sales hall, Chen Jia pulled him and said, "The third sister went to the police station to rescue someone last week. The student she brought sneaked out to the dance hall at night and was caught by the police who were cracking down on prostitution. The third sister probably gets annoyed when she sees students now."
So she was very quiet today, quietly hiding in a corner, trying not to be seen by her third sister, otherwise she might be concerned about her grades...
"Ah? No wonder." Chen Yongan shrank his neck. No wonder his third sister didn't let him ask for leave when such a big event happened. Didn't she let him consider becoming a gossip reporter stationed in the village? How could he report if he wasn’t there in person?
The group was even happier than when they came, and returned to the sales hall in a lively manner.
At this time, people from Qiaodong Village who came to show their support also arrived.
When they saw Chen Jin, everyone congratulated him. As for how much sincerity there is in his words, I don’t know.
The news of the household registration freeze in Qiaoxi Village had already spread everywhere. When they heard that Qiaoxi Village was going to be demolished, it had nothing to do with them, but Chen Jin was among those being demolished! We are all from Qiaodong Village, how come they can always get such good things again and again? !
Chen Wenzhen and Chen Wensong seemed to have really made a fortune from the land they bought. Their hair was shiny and they walked in a very ostentatious manner.
"Third sister, congratulations, you've caught up with another demolition project." Chen Wensong wanted to say it in a generous way, but he really couldn't control himself, and his tone became sour.
Chen Wenzhen wanted to smile and congratulate but couldn't. He just laughed twice, "Congratulations, Third Sister. Your fortune is so good. Where did you burn the incense?"
These two are full of gossip.
Chen Wenzhen's wife came to his house with a big belly, but a man also showed up and said the child was his...
Chen Wensong's current wife hasn't given birth yet, and his outsider has brought his son to the house...
If they hadn't come to congratulate him, Chen Jin wouldn't have been so happy. Now the smile on his face couldn't be more genuine. He chuckled and said, "My luck is just average. I haven't congratulated Uncle Wen Song and Uncle Wen Zhen yet. I'm happy to have a baby and make a fortune. Let's congratulate them together!"
