Chapter 178 Two Old Houses
Lu Xiangyang raised his hands, smiling broadly, "Okay, okay, I promise I won't reach out."
In fact, he himself was not very sure whether he had the ability to do business.
Although Jiang Jianni always says that there are business opportunities everywhere now, even a pig can make money if it stands in the right place at the right time.
However, there are many, many people who do business, but only a few actually make money.
Most of them failed miserably and ended up working for others, relying on their wages to support their families.
It's true that pigs can make money when they're in the right place at the right time, but first you have to make sure you're in the right place at the right time and not get blown away by the wind. You also have to be in the right direction and in the right place at the right time to make money.
Otherwise, if Jiang Jianni knows so much, why doesn't she start her own business instead of just giving advice to others?
Because she felt she wasn't cut out for business, she only started with areas she was familiar with.
After all, if you can make money in your comfort zone, who would be willing to endure hardship?
but.
Just because he can't do business doesn't mean he can't do other things to make money.
For example, he might learn to write books like his wife.
He couldn't write the books that Jiang Jianni wrote, but he had served in the military for many years and could easily write hundreds of thousands or even millions of words about things that happened in the army.
Or, why don't we ask Jiang Jiani for advice on how to write a book, and he could write a book specifically about the military?
His wife is indeed a good earner, but he, a grown man, can't rely on his wife to support the family.
Jiang Jiani also taught him how to use a computer.
The fire department doesn't have a computer yet; they have to use pens, notebooks, and draft paper to write anything.
If he were to write a book himself, he could use a computer.
To avoid forgetting the computer skills he finally learned—by the way, Lu Xiangyang also learned the full pinyin typing method, exactly the same as Jiang Jiani's.
They aren't professionals like Jiang Haiyang, nor do they need office work; typing with Pinyin is perfectly sufficient for them.
Lu Xiangyang was quite surprised when he printed out an article for the first time.
This skill you learn must never be forgotten.
According to Jiang Haiyang, computers will not only be available in every household in the future, but will also be found in various public and private enterprises.
He believed that.
He has a friend who works at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and he heard that the Ministry has already equipped itself with several computers in order to align with international standards.
All of their staff at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had to learn to type and use basic office software.
If the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is in this state, then even if other departments can't be fully equipped in the short term, it's only a matter of time.
He will definitely need to learn computer science in the future.
However...
Lu Xiangyang still had some sense of shame.
Although he sometimes seemed shameless in front of Jiang Jiani, when it came to making money, he was too embarrassed to ask his wife for advice for the time being.
Why.
Wait a minute.
Let's wait until they get home before making a decision.
After all, their most important thing right now is their honeymoon.
However, he was also curious about how Jiang Jianni would make money to buy a villa: "You seem very confident. How do you plan to make money?"
"Are you not writing another book?"
Jiang Jianni's royalties are already quite high; both of her ongoing serialized books are priced at 60 yuan per thousand words.
In just one month, Jiang Jiani earned five or six thousand yuan in royalties.
Lu Xiangyang was already somewhat numb to the speed at which she made money. Even so, she said she couldn't do it, saying that some authors could earn 400 yuan per thousand words.
Lu Xiangyang was so shocked that he felt dizzy.
In other words, even if someone does nothing else, as long as they can write 100,000 characters a month, they can earn 40,000.
He thought to himself, "Why don't I write a book too?"
But putting aside the difficulty of writing a book, just watching Jiang Jianni get frustrated and pull her hair out every day when she couldn't write anything made him tremble with fear.
Jiang Jianni said she would think of a solution, but Lu Xiangyang couldn't think of anything other than writing another book.
He immediately became anxious: "No, you can't write anymore."
"You're already doing the job of being a teacher, a mother, and writing two books. You're already exhausted enough. If you write another one, how will you survive?"
Before Jiang Jiani could answer, he denied it himself: "We can live without a villa, but we can't live without our health."
"You can't disregard everything for money."
"Otherwise, I'll have Mom keep an eye on you every day, and then you won't be able to get anything done!"
Jiang Jianni: "..."
Jiang Jianni was both amused and exasperated: "...What are you thinking? Really."
"I don't want to write another book."
Do you think writing a book is as simple as eating and drinking?
"It's true that writing a book doesn't require physical labor, but it takes a lot of brainpower. Where do I find the brainpower to write another book?"
In her past life, when she paid the down payment and worked hard to renovate, she could only afford to work two jobs at most, never three.
Not to mention that I'll be a teacher for life and have children, so the idea of having three jobs is even more impossible.
In other words, the total number of words for the two books each month is only 120,000 to 130,000. If she, who is used to writing 10,000 words a day and 300,000 words a month, thinks that 100,000 words is nothing, she will not write two books at the same time.
She winked at Lu Xiangyang: "Have you forgotten that I also got involved in Sitian's milk tea shop?"
Lu Sitian's milk tea shop has made a lot of money over the past year.
Fried chicken may be a bit pricey, but it's meat, and milk tea is sweet and delicious, almost everyone loves it.
Business isn't exactly booming, but daily turnover is still around 100 yuan.
That's quite a fast way to make money.
At the end of the year, Jiang Jianni and Lu's mother, who contributed money and technology respectively, each received more than 40,000 yuan.
After receiving her dividends, Lu Sitian immediately bought a house, paying in full. It's a three-bedroom, two-living-room house, right behind Jiang Jianni's house. She even hired Jiang Haibing to renovate it.
Then I returned to my hometown before the Lunar New Year, which can be described as a triumphant return.
They plan to bring her father and younger brother to the city to enjoy a comfortable life.
So Jiang Jianni has a lot of money now, plus her usual royalties, all in all, she has more than 200,000 yuan.
When Lu Xiangyang heard Jiang Jianni reveal the truth to him, his face was full of disbelief: "Then, why are you buying the house in installments? Couldn't you just give them all the money directly?"
The thought of his family's loan repayment suddenly increasing to over a hundred dollars gave him a terrible headache.
Jiang Jianni rolled her eyes at her: "What's a small loan? It's not like we can't pay it back."
"I have a very important use for this money."
Soon, Lu Xiangyang learned how Jiang Jiani's great skill was being used.
She actually used the 180,000 yuan in her hand to buy two more houses.
They are all old-style houses that were paid for outright, and the locations aren't very good.
It was in the village that Yang Anni had taken them to.
Aside from the fact that those two houses occupied a large area, with each house taking up about 300 square meters, Lu Xiangyang couldn't see anything good about these old houses.
The original homeowner didn't want the house anymore; he immediately ran off to the city to buy an apartment after receiving the money.
Lu Xiangyang looked incredulous: "You, you're crazy to buy this kind of house?"
Jiang Jianni shook her head calmly and asked mysteriously, "Do you know what the fastest way to make money is for someone who doesn't know how to do business and has no talent for business?"
