Chapter 262 Yearning
Traveling with the whole family is not an easy task.
They also have five children.
There's a lot to prepare just for five children.
In addition, it's winter, so we need to bring spare clothes as well.
So even though we've decided to travel together, we really can't go anytime soon.
Two days before the appointed date, Zhao Nanguo, Lu Sitian, and Han Jue successively delivered their dividends for the year.
Zhao Nanguo's wedding photography business is so good it's unbelievable.
When he gave Jiang Jiani her share of the profits, he was still ambitious about opening a photography shop in another city.
Han Jue's diaper business became even more successful.
That's how people in this country are.
I'm reluctant to buy things for myself, but when it comes to things for the elderly or children, I'm willing to spend any amount of money.
The market for sanitary napkins has been slow to open up, but the business of adult diapers for the elderly and children is booming.
In just one year, the profits have already been very substantial.
The three people gave Jiang Jiani a total of nearly 400,000 yuan in dividends.
Jiang Jianni could hardly believe her eyes when she received the money: "So much?"
Lu Xiangyang warned, "Wake up, there's only one more year at most."
"Have you forgotten that you only signed a three-year profit-sharing contract with them?"
Jiang Jiani provided the recipe and money for the milk tea shop, and also contributed funds when opening branch stores later, so she has always had a share in it.
However, she only signed a three-year contract for the wedding photography and diaper businesses.
After all, she only moved her mouth.
It's already very kind of them to offer three years of dividends.
Jiang Jianni thought that if someone offered her a few thousand yuan to say a few words, it wouldn't be a problem.
But they were still willing to give her a share of the profits, which shows that they were very kind.
This was practically free money, so Jiang Jianni had no regrets at all. She only thought of one thing: "Old Lu, do you think we can buy that villa we looked at last time when we go to the capital this time?"
Lu Xiangyang: "...Didn't the price of that villa go up?"
When Jiang Jiani spoke with Yang Anni on the phone before, she had asked about villas in the capital.
Yang Anni now owns two houses and is even more eager to own more.
After returning home, he not only continued to take on acting roles to earn money, but also started learning about various types of houses.
Courtyard houses, tenement buildings, villas, apartment buildings, and now, newly emerging elevator buildings, as well as commercial buildings that are reportedly still in the planning stages, etc.
She asked about and looked at all of them.
The villa that Jiang Jianni mentioned has already gone up in price again.
The capital city certainly doesn't lack wealthy people.
When Jiang Jiani went to see it, the villa area had just been built, and the landscaping was not yet fully completed.
A year has passed, the landscaping is complete, and most of the houses have been sold.
The villa that Jiang Jianni had her eye on was considered small among the eight available, and it sold out the fastest.
Now only one large villa with a building area of 1,500 to 1,600 square meters remains.
Note that the 1,500 to 1,600 square meters here refers to the usable area only, excluding shared areas.
The garden is 2,000 square meters.
A true king of buildings.
The price is naturally quite attractive, at over six million.
Jiang Jianni felt dizzy when she heard the price.
More than six million, even if you sold her, it wouldn't be enough to cover a fraction of what they'd get.
Lu Xiangyang even refuted her, saying that she was priceless and that a mere house could not compare to Jiang Jiani.
This left Jiang Jiani both amused and exasperated.
Now that Lu Xiangyang has brought up the issue of rising house prices again, Jiang Jianni's high spirits have been dampened considerably: "Forget it, let's just buy an apartment instead."
Lu Xiangyang was surprised: "You're buying more? We already have so many houses, are you going to buy more?"
Jiang Jianni rolled her eyes at him: "Money will only become less and less valuable in the future. If you don't find a way to exchange it for something that retains its value now, what will you do when money becomes worthless in the future?"
“Our family has a lot of money now, but in a few years it won’t even be enough for someone else’s monthly salary.”
She pondered for a moment: "I heard from Anne that there are foreign-owned companies in the capital."
"That person's salary is already several thousand a month, and they also get double or triple pay or bonuses at the end of the year."
"The most capable can earn tens of thousands a month."
"Tell me, what are our few hundred thousand compared to other people's salaries? At most, it's only equivalent to four or five years' worth of their income."
"And their salaries will increase."
"We're neither good at business, we don't understand finance, and we're certainly not good at investing or managing our finances. So what else can we do besides buying a house?"
Jiang Jianni couldn't think of anything that could retain its value except for houses and gold jewelry.
However, the appreciation potential of gold and jewelry cannot compare to that of real estate.
In truth, Jiang Jianni prefers houses to gold and jewelry.
However, if you have extra money, you can also buy some gold and jewelry.
For example, jade.
Jiang Jiani also researched jadeite.
After all, when writing novels, jewelry and antiques are always unavoidable topics, whether in modern or ancient times.
It's perfectly normal to check relevant information when writing.
Jadeite started to gain popularity in the 1990s, but its popularity couldn't compare to what it would be 20 or 30 years later.
For example, a translucent green bracelet can be bought for tens of thousands of yuan now, but thirty years later, the same translucent green bracelet may cost millions or tens of millions of yuan.
Online discussions once focused on the jewelry celebrities wore on the red carpet.
Those big-name celebrities might have jewelry worth hundreds of millions just for wearing.
It's easy to imagine its potential for appreciation.
However, there's never a shortage of fake jade and emeralds.
Jiang Jianni doesn't understand this industry, and what she knows online is barely scratching the surface.
Even if they are tempted by the potential profits here, they dare not get involved easily.
She's now worth hundreds of thousands, making her a millionaire compared to ordinary people.
But if you actually try to play this game, even a little bad luck can wipe out your entire investment in one go.
So let's just stick to building houses.
At least the houses won't be fake.
As for jade and such, well, it all depends on fate.
Jiang Jianni calmed herself down and immediately focused her attention on the house.
With more funds this time in the capital, she can buy more houses.
Lu Xiangyang: "Isn't buying a house in Pingyang the same thing?"
Jiang Jianni rolled her eyes at him: "How can they be the same?"
Houses built in the 1990s may look new now, but in twenty years they will be old and dilapidated.
For those born after 2010, unless they are really broke, who would want to live in an old house if they could afford it?
People would rather take out a loan to buy a new house than live in an old house from twenty years ago.
Only in big cities like the capital, Haicheng, is there no shortage of buyers for houses, no matter how dilapidated, old, or run-down they are.
Of course, if you're making an investment and plan to sell it in the future, a smaller house is easier to resell, since the total price is lower.
Therefore, Jiang Jianni plans to look at one-bedroom apartments and two-bedroom apartments when she goes to the capital this time.
The price is low, so I can buy several more sets with the money I have.
There has never been a better time to buy.
Well, speaking of which, it's not just the capital city where housing prices have risen to terrifying levels; the housing prices in Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen (a special economic zone) are also incredibly high.
So should she also go to these places to acquire some properties?
