"What is Maestro? What brand is this? Why is a bag so expensive? It looks about the same as the bags sold in department stores."
Lu Ziqun was not familiar with these brands and had never heard of Hermès, Chanel, or Louis Vuitton. She believed in buying things at the cheapest price possible. She would think twice before buying anything over a hundred yuan, and she would definitely not buy anything that was not very useful to her life.
Even if she had 700,000 yuan, she wouldn't buy a handbag to carry around. Wouldn't it be better to use that money to buy a house?
This was also the biggest difference between her and Yu Shaoning. Of course, her ordinary appearance and lack of dressing up also made Yu Shaoning dislike her.
“Hermes is a foreign brand, and their products are quite expensive. Mine is relatively cheap; some of their items cost millions,” Dong Siyue said with a smile.
In fact, she had many Hermes bags, all of which were gifts from Li Hongming. Whenever Hermes released a new model, Li Hongming would send someone to buy it for her. Even after they separated, this continued, except that the Hermes bags were given to her directly, without going through Li Hongming's hands.
She randomly picked one out today, but it still stood out from the crowd of bags. Moreover, she couldn't stand Sun Yurong, so she and Ye Qingqing worked together to help Qian Manyu put down her.
"You're really rich. A bag worth hundreds of thousands, wow, I would never buy that even if you killed me. If I had that kind of money, I would buy houses, and rent out several. Then I wouldn't have to worry about money when I'm old," Lu Ziqun said wistfully.
Her biggest wish was to have a house of her own in Pingjiang. After all, the Yu family's house belonged to the Yu family. Moreover, she later learned that although Yu Shaoning seemed to have three houses, only the one they lived in was in Yu Shaoning's name. The other two belonged to her parents-in-law.
Therefore, the only property she and Yu Shaoning shared was a house and a small amount of savings, because Yu Shaoning spent his salary on his own and never handed it over to her, although he would give her 500 yuan for household expenses every month.
Although it was a small amount, Yu Shaoning basically didn't eat at home, and neither did she. They would just grab a quick bite at the school cafeteria. Yu Shaoning would eat at her in-laws' house. They rarely spent the five hundred yuan. Lu Ziqun's family didn't buy anything new either. She could save most of her salary, except for sending some to her parents.
But the housing prices in Pingjiang are rising too fast, always faster than she can save money. She doesn't know when she'll be able to save enough for a down payment. Sigh.
“I really like handbags, so I’ve collected some. And like houses, Hermes bags can appreciate in value, so they’re a kind of investment,” Dong Siyue said with a smile.
"The world of the rich is too far away from me. I'd rather save up for a down payment on a house. A house is my biggest goal. I wonder when prices will drop." Lu Ziqun had a good attitude and didn't envy Dong Siyue for being able to use bags worth hundreds of thousands. All she wanted was a house.
Without a house, she can't feel at ease. She feels like she's just a passerby in Pingjiang, and could be abandoned by the city at any time.
"If you really want to buy, buy it as soon as possible. In a few years, the housing prices will rise even higher and will only get more expensive. It's impossible for them to become cheaper," Ye Qingqing reminded.
The housing prices in Pingjiang have already risen dramatically, but they will rise even more dramatically in a few years. So the earlier you buy, the more you will make. Moreover, in a few years, there will be purchase restrictions, so even if you have the money, you won't be able to buy.
Lu Ziqun looked distressed. "I haven't saved enough money yet."
"Borrow money, ask relatives and friends for some. When the house price goes up, you'll make a profit, and it'll be easier to pay off the debt." Ye Qingqing pointed out again that you can never save enough money to buy a house.
