On the morning of the second day in Shanghai, Lian Xiaomin, accompanied by Yan Haixia and her husband, went to see another commercial housing.
Because she also worked in Shanghai in her previous life, she remembered one thing. It seemed that there was a famous "Nine Buildings" on Caoxi North Road, which was the "Xuhui New Village" community.
It is said to be the first batch of high-rise residential communities built in Shanghai that year. Because there are nine buildings in total, it is called "Nine Buildings".
In the 1980s, buildings had elevators, and every household had flush toilets and kitchen stoves. It was truly perfect and was the most beautiful vision of life for a generation.
This can be regarded as the "top brand" of buildings in Shanghai, and at this time, the "high-rise" one is the king of buildings.
At that time, Xuhui District was not yet considered an urban area, and the areas surrounding the buildings were actually farmland.
Yan Haixia and Zhao Limin both came here today in the car driven by Xiao He. When they got here, they were a little surprised that Xiaomin actually liked this place~
They found the sales office, where a man named Sun received them and introduced the building to them.
The six buildings on the south side are all 13 stories high.
The three buildings on the north side are 16 stories high.
When asked how big an area they wanted to see, Lian Xiaomin said affirmatively, they would just see the biggest one.
Comrade Sun took them to see 5 buildings. Each building had two elevators. In these 5 buildings, there were nine households per elevator!
Oh my god, this is the first time that Lian Xiaomin has heard this, and she finds it quite fresh.
After entering, I took the elevator to the tenth floor, where there was a long straight corridor with a row of windows on one side and rooms on the other, a total of nine households.
Comrade Sun introduced that there are 4 houses of 70 square meters and 5 houses of 80 square meters, and this is the case on every floor of the building.
This "Xuhui New Village" has been built for some time and there are still many houses available, such as these 5 buildings, which are still waiting to be sold.
Lian Xiaomin thought that she couldn't choose a floor that was too high, because the elevators at that time were unreliable and would definitely break down often, making it difficult to go up and down the stairs.
Although she doesn't live here, she has to consider this when buying a house.
So, I went to see the sixth floor again.
Actually, there is nothing much to see. The 80-square-meter house has three bedrooms and a small kitchen and bathroom. That’s it.
In the end, she bought the two remaining 80-square-meter apartments on the sixth floor and the four remaining 80-square-meter apartments on the fifth floor.
One suite costs 17,000 yuan, and the total cost for six suites is 102,000 yuan.
This time Xiao He was there, driving Lian Xiaomin out to get the money.
Lian Xiaomin just went to Xiaohong's old house and came back with a box of cash.
All six houses are still registered under Yan Haixia's name, and will be transferred back to her own name when policies become more convenient in the future.
Yan Haixia and Zhao Liming finally saw what a super rich person is.
Lawrence Lu asked Lian Xiaomin with a smile, "Xiao Hong is really good at hiding money! This guy is really good."
Comrade Sun was also quite shocked and completed all the procedures. He asked Yan Haixia to get the real estate certificate herself and then handed over the keys directly.
Lian Xiaomin was satisfied this time. She had three sets of keys and she kept one for herself.
This time, I got 20,000 yuan more and took Yan Haixia to deposit it in the bank. The house I bought these two days had to be cleaned up and then rented out a few of them.
Although "decoration" was not popular at that time, I still had to buy some furniture. Of course, it wouldn't cost much, and these would definitely be enough. I could put the rest with her first.
Yan Haixia must treat the tasks assigned to Xiaomin as top priority and carry them out seriously.
On the third day in Shanghai, Lian Xiaomin finally met Tan Rushong and Baogen who was already in middle school!
Although she didn't know Tan Rushong's address, she knew that he was studying at a Shanghai university and should be a junior.
So I asked Ali to go to the school to inquire in advance, and finally found it.
This time, we met in the restaurant of the Shanghai Hotel. Today happened to be Sunday, so Baogen came even though he didn't have school.
His full name is Tan Rubai. He has grown a lot taller now. Fourteen years old is the best time for him to grow.
Tan Rubai was very excited to see Sister Xiaomin and Brother Lu. He kept reporting his academic performance and always ranked first in the grade!
Much better than his brother back then~
Lian Xiaomin asked them how they had been doing during the past two years since they had separated.
Tan Rushong said that everything was fine. He took the college entrance examination in December 1977, was admitted to university and returned to his hometown in Shanghai.
The first thing he did was to follow Lian Xiaomin's instructions and use the 5,000 yuan she gave him to buy a 30-square-meter house.
I spent about three thousand yuan in total, and saved the rest of the money as living expenses for my younger brother.
He is studying at university and the school gives him subsidies. This is how he has been spending the past two years and he has no problems with his life.
I met my brother and sister before, and I really slapped them in the face. I felt so relieved.
Tan Rushong's brothers and sisters are really weird. They took away the job left by their parents after their death, and gave their half-brother to someone else.
The question is, how could they have the nerve to take away the stepmother's job? Then they gave the child to a random family and let him be abused.
If it weren’t for the third brother, Tan Rushong, who was very kind-hearted and treated his younger brother as a family member, he would have finally found him.
I wonder what will happen to such a good child like Baogen.
Having said that, if the two brothers hadn’t met Lian Xiaomin who rescued them, they would have died long ago. They would have frozen to death in that cave.
Lian Xiaomin took out a passbook. Nowadays, passbooks are not real-name based, so one does not need an ID card or a password to withdraw money. One can just withdraw money directly with the passbook.
She went to the bank with Haixia yesterday and opened an account. She deposited 20,000 yuan in it and handed it to Tan Rubai.
"Baogen, I'll give you this money as a reward for your excellent academic performance. I'll give you an apartment... Go to the 'Meiyuan New Village' near the People's Square and buy at least an apartment of 60 or 70 square meters. That'll be enough for you to live in."
"Save the remaining money for your future study and get into the best university!"
The two brothers refused for a while, but Lian Xiaomin finally stuffed the bag into their schoolbags.
"Sister Xiaomin, I will study hard. When I succeed in life, I will go to Hong Kong to see you!"
Lian Xiaomin smiled and said, "Okay, you see, now that I can come to the mainland, maybe in the near future you can go to Hong Kong freely."
They ordered a lot of Shanghai dishes and had a big meal.
Lawrence Lu felt that this dish of "braised pork with pickled mustard greens" had square pieces of pork belly wrapped in a thick sauce, exuding an attractive luster... Xiaofu and Xiaoya would definitely like it!
"Alas~ It's a pity that Xiaofu and the others didn't get to enjoy the feast!"
After saying that, he took a big bite!
Shanghai cuisine tends to be sweet, but not greasy.
Lian Xiaomin also likes it. The "Crispy Smoked Fish" and "Stir-fried Shrimp with Lime Oil" are also delicious!
She thought to herself that she would have to send everyone away in the evening, so she packed up again before leaving to save space!
