Chapter 185 Property Purchase
Holidays are always short.
A month passed quickly, and life returned to normal.
Xu Muzhou studied in Yuecheng, and Xiao Qingru studied in Beijing.
Every one or two months, Xu's parents would take their child to Yuecheng.
Accompanied by their family, the twins live happily every day.
By the end of the year, a piece of news shocked the whole country.
Reform and opening up.
Xiao Qingru received a call from Song Yuan, "Qin Bei is planning to do business. You are more informed in Beijing. Can you help me find out if this is possible? Will there be any problems in the future?"
Hearing this news, Xiao Qingru was somewhat surprised.
Then I felt relieved.
Qin Bei doesn't look like a person with an empty head, so it's not surprising that he wants to seize the opportunity now.
He said: "I don't know what will happen in the future, but there will definitely be no problems in the next few years."
Song Yuan said: "Then just agree with Qin Bei and go as you please."
"You need capital to run a business. Do you have enough? I have some spare money here. You can use it if you need it."
Song Yuan was very moved.
We still don't know whether this business can succeed or not. Besides our parents, the only one who dares to lend us money is Qingru.
"It's not necessary for now. The child is still young. Qin Bei plans to do some small business in the commune first, so that he can take care of the family. When Haohao goes to school next year, if the business is really successful, it won't be too late to expand the stall."
"Take it step by step, be steady." Xiao Qingru said.
Song Yuan jokingly said, "If I can really make money, I will find you as my partner. You and Comrade Xu don't have to do anything, just invest money."
Xiao Qingru smiled and said, "I am very excited when you say that. I hope Comrade Qin will work hard and help us make a fortune in the future."
"Let's try it for a year and see how it goes."
"Okay, if you need anything, just give me a call and we'll figure it out together."
"Qingru, thank you."
"With our relationship, do I need to thank you?"
Doing business is full of unknown risks.
With Xiao Qingru's encouragement, Song Yuan felt more confident.
We haven't saved much money in the past few years, and our family is also renovating the house, so we only have more than 200 yuan to use.
As for the money her parents gave her for dowry, Song Yuan didn't plan to use it. If anything happened in the future, she could use the money for emergencies.
And according to Qin Bei's temper, he wouldn't want it either.
Although two hundred yuan is not a lot, it is enough to do some small business.
Song Yuan and her friends' business inspired Xiao Qingru, so after dinner, she called Xu Muzhou.
It is not a good idea for the family to live apart all the time, so Xiao Qingru plans to go to Yuecheng to work after graduation.
Since we are going to live here for a long time, the housing problem must be solved.
Xu Muzhou's dormitory is too small for his family to live in.
You can look for a house with a good location and environment near the school, so that your family can live more comfortably in the future.
When he heard that Xiao Qingru was planning to buy a house in Yuecheng, Xu Muzhou was the first to agree.
"We'll find a good house first, and then you can come over to take a look during your winter vacation. If you like it, we'll decide on it."
"Sure, with a budget of three dollars, I should be able to buy a house with a yard, right?"
"Yes, houses are cheap now. You can buy a big yard for one dollar."
Xiao Qingru said, "Then you can look for a few more places. If they are suitable, we can just buy two more yards and keep them for Zuo Zuo in the future."
Xu Muzhou thought for a while, "It's enough to buy a house in Yuecheng, but we can buy another courtyard house in Jingshi, so that my parents will have a place to live when they come over in the future."
If you buy a courtyard house, a budget of three yuan is definitely not enough.
However, since the money was spent on her parents, Xiao Qingru was willing to do it.
"Okay, then buy a yard on each side."
Xiao Qingru is not good at buying houses, and Xu Muzhou cannot come back for a while, so she can only ask her brother to accompany her to choose a house.
Xiao Qingru had a hunch that if she didn't buy a house now, the house price would get higher and higher in the future.
Buy it early and save money.
I heard that Xiao Qingru bought the courtyard house for his parents to live in.
Xiao Huaishu didn't ask her to pay, he paid 15 yuan out of his own pocket and bought a medium-sized yard.
There are five rooms with a yard, which is enough for the old couple of the Xiao family to live in.
Xiao Qingru had prepared the money, and after much deliberation, he decided to buy the yard next door as well.
“You’re wasting your money.”
"Don't waste it. I'll give it to the kids later."
The Xu family also has a courtyard house, which is about the same size as the newly purchased one.
From now on, each of the two children will have a property, which is fair.
I just bought a house in Beijing, and Xiao Qingru is also on vacation.
So he hurried to Yuecheng without stopping.
Spend two dollars to buy a house near the university.
In just a few days, I spent seven dollars, and half of my savings was gone.
Even though you spend a lot of money, as long as the things are still in your hands, it is not considered as wasting money.
Xiao Qingru feels quite satisfied when she thinks that her children won't have to spend their own money to buy houses in the future.
As the old saying goes, children have their own blessings, but she wants her own children to have an easier life.
You don't have to worry about your belongings anymore.
We can feel free to do whatever we want.
This idea did not agree with Xu Muzhou.
Money earned is spent.
As long as you keep enough money for emergencies, you don't have to feel bad if you spend the rest.
We are still young and have plenty of time to make money.
Xu Muzhou now has a stable job. Although his salary is not as high as before, he still earns more than 100 yuan a month.
Xiao Qingru received a subsidy from university, more than ten yuan a month.
Not much, but more than enough for food and drink.
There is no big expense in buying a house, so you can save the money and accumulate a lot in a year.
Xiao's father and mother learned that they bought a house in Beijing and that their son was the one who paid for it.
The next day, he transferred the money to Xiao Huaishu.
We two children have savings, so we don't need our children to spend money on us.
Inspired by Xiao Qingru and others, the Fang family also bought a courtyard house for Fang Jianguo and his son.
After the college entrance examination was resumed, Fang Jianguo and his son both took the college entrance examination and returned to Beijing.
I didn’t save any money during those years as an educated youth. If my family didn’t support me, I didn’t know when I would be able to buy a house on my own.
As for Fang Yingqiu and Xiao Huaishu, their work unit did not allocate houses to them, so they did not have to consider buying houses.
After finishing all the work, Xu Muzhou and Xiao Qingru took their family back to the northwest.
Mr. and Mrs. Xu came to the family home twice.
One time was when I attended my son's wedding.
One time, my son was injured, and I came to pick him up and bring him back to Beijing.
Coming back to this place again, all the suffering is over.
The old two were deeply touched.
It's too difficult for a person to have a smooth life.
As long as the family is healthy, we have nothing else to ask for.
