Chapter 213 The Housing Speculation Craze



Lin Wei's tricks and wit were not only experienced by Zhuang Zhihao, but also by Zhuang Jiahui.

Back then, the one at home—well, after she fell into the water and taught him a lesson, he really behaved himself for a long time.

She followed suit and made her life much easier in the family.

"However, since Weiwei is coming today, why didn't you pick her up and have a meal together?"

Shen Jize calmly said, "I've already contacted Zeng. I didn't know she was coming before. She probably wanted to surprise me. Zeng heard about it but didn't tell anyone. She must be regretting it now."

-

Half an hour later, Lin Wei arrived at the private room.

"You guys are having a good time, leaving me out there to clean up this mess."

When she walked over to Shen Jize, she didn't sit down immediately. Instead, she kicked him first.

Shen Jize wasn't annoyed. "Knowing you can handle it, we can rest easy."

Zhuang Zhihao asked with great interest, "Weiwei, didn't you ever suspect that the woman was pregnant with Ji Ze's child back then? You trusted him that much?"

"Trust?" Lin Wei looked at Shen Jize. "If he betrays me, I'll just dump him. In the end, it's only Xixi who will get hurt, unless he doesn't love his daughter anymore."

Everyone present was an acquaintance, as Lin Wei had said.

Moreover, given how much Shen Jize dotes on Xi Xi, it's simply impossible for him to betray her in the short term.

Moreover, they are bound by deeper interests.

Although it may not sound pleasant, there is no conflict between feelings and interests.

Emotion brought them together, and interests bound them together for a long, long time.

Lin Wei loves to eat duck. There are several plates of various kinds of duck on the table, each prepared in a different way.

Especially the duck soup, which Zhuang Zhihao personally served to her.

"Come on, Weiwei, you're feeling a bit irritable today. Have a bowl of duck soup to cool down."

"Brother, I didn't take my anger out on you, why are you being so attentive? Are you worried that your wife will ask me for advice? Well, this bowl of soup won't shut me up."

"No, no, I just wanted to serve you soup so you wouldn't get angry and hurt innocent people."

"But shouldn't someone take care of Miss Jiang after this?" Lin Wei asked.

this--

They really didn't know.

“Ji Ze is ignoring her. She’s just a useless pawn. Now that she’s injured like this, everyone knows about it. We really don’t know if anyone will save her, but that’s not something you should be worrying about.”

“Even if the Jiang clan doesn’t care, her own family will. She definitely won’t die, but this trick won’t be very useful anymore.” Zhuang Jiahui laughed. “Before we met you, the Jiang family kept sending people to Brother Jize and my brother, and even to my side… they sent people too.”

"Ha, a honey trap?"

Zhuang Jiahui laughed and said, "Well, but knowing it's a trap, no one would fall for it. The Jiang family probably wanted to use their own family members to help my brother and Jize go easy on them, but now they've offended them even more."

Everyone outside knows that offending these two people is acceptable, but offending their wives will only lead to death.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shen Jize and Zhuang Zhihao pressed their advantage and increased their stakes. Sure enough, by the beginning of 2008, they had completely absorbed the Jiang family's power.

2008 was an Olympic year.

Housing prices have seen a new leap, with average prices increasing by about 4 to 10 times.

But this still couldn't stop ordinary people from buying houses, which even led to a housing speculation boom.

Seeing housing prices rise relentlessly, Lin Xiaomeng and Zhang Min were the happiest of all.

“I listened to Weiwei’s advice and bought a house whenever I had money. I thought that housing prices had reached their peak, but I never expected them to rise like this.”

Zhang Min hurriedly asked, "Weiwei, with house prices rising like this, is it still necessary to buy one?"

"Buy it! Even though it's already gone up this much, you can still buy it."

Because starting in 2010, purchase restrictions were gradually implemented from 2011 to 2012.

Right now, one name can buy multiple properties, but who knows what will happen in the future, unless there's land expropriation and compensation.

"House prices will definitely rise again, but there won't be a huge difference. But if you have cash on hand, listen to me, take it out and buy a house, especially an old house that is about to be demolished."

Lin Xiaomeng understood Lin Wei's meaning: "The demolition compensation will definitely be based on the current housing prices. We bought those houses early, and with the current housing prices doubling, we'll make a killing."

"Indeed, but try to buy as many as possible in the next two years, because you may not be able to buy them after that."

At this point, Lin Xiaomeng said, "Weiwei, since you work in this field, you should know that the area around our yarn factory dormitory, the area with our old houses, is going to be demolished."

"I know, our company is also bidding for this project. It would be great if we could win it."

The wool factory dormitory is located outside the first ring road, right next to the outer edge of the first line.

The area is surrounded by primary schools, middle schools, and universities, making it a truly rare and excellent neighborhood.

As a result, its housing prices are naturally high.

“My house, including the rooms, yard, kitchen, and bathroom, is 66 square meters in total. It didn’t cost much when I bought it. Now that it’s being demolished, how much of it will be demolished?”

"Let's go by the house price. The current house price in that area is 8,500 yuan per square meter, which is about 561,000 yuan. If the first batch of signings is completed on schedule, we can probably get a subsidy of 2,000 yuan, so it's roughly 563,000 yuan."

Their company had been established for a long time, and 560,000 yuan was nothing to Lin Xiaomeng and Zhang Min.

The house I bought for just tens of thousands of yuan has, in the blink of an eye, increased in value several times over.

Zhang Min said regretfully, "It's all over, I should have bought more houses. If I had known that houses were so profitable, I should have used all my money to buy houses."

"Aunt Zhang, you can't be too greedy. Besides, you must own quite a few houses."

"It's not just a lot, I own more than 30 houses, your Aunt Zhang owns no less than 40, not to mention you..."

Lin Wei smiled; she did indeed own more houses.

She even bought land and built the building herself in the surrounding cities before they were developed.

Now, they're still waiting for demolition.

"Is this what it feels like to reap the rewards without sowing? It's so special, but I like it." Zhang Min counted on her fingers. "If you do the math, the compensation from the demolition of all the houses under our names is more than all the money we've earned over the years. So why should I work so hard?"

“But if you don’t work, you simply don’t have enough money to buy a house.” Lin Xiaomeng interrupted directly, “Alright, stop setting a bad example for the kids. It’s true that it’s nice to reap the rewards without sowing, but it also requires capital, which you little ones don’t have.”

“Mom has it.” Su Si’an answered without thinking.

The adults' hearts skipped a beat.

Oh no, I wasn't careful with my words and the kids have picked up on them.
