Chapter 366 Buying a House
Their home is about 30 kilometers away from the river, and it takes more than an hour to get there by car.
Chen Qing was prone to motion sickness, so he found an old recipe and stuck ginger slices on his stomach and wrists.
The family of four met up with Tian Mengya and Lin Chongping and got on the bus.
The moment she got into the car, Chen Qing secretly decided that after the reform and opening up, when people in China could buy cars, she would go and take the driving test immediately!
Holding the steering wheel in your hands will prevent you from getting dizzy.
The bus was bumping and groaning on the bumpy dirt road.
Chen Qing only remembered that her stomach was churning. There were people in the car who were going fishing as well, so they all brought fish buckets. The fish buckets had been there for many years and were not cleaned properly. The fishy smell mixed with the summer sweat smell made her want to vomit even more...
As the number of people increased, Chen Qing's hands tightly grasped the shiny wooden backrest of the front seat. His throat tightened and he felt an unsuppressible sourness.
Upon seeing this, He Yuan pressed some soothing acupuncture points on her.
Tian Mengya also looked at Chen Qing worriedly: "Are you okay?"
"Not bad." Chen Qing perked up and asked her, "How about you? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
Tian Mengya's morning sickness was sometimes very severe, and sometimes nothing happened. In short, the baby in her belly was very changeable.
"That's fine."
As long as the pregnant woman is fine.
According to her, she would be able to recover after taking a break after getting off the bus.
After the group arrived at the riverside, Chen Qing almost staggered out of the car like a drowning man grabbing a piece of driftwood.
When her feet stepped on the soft mud and were blown by the river breeze, the overwhelming feeling was slightly relieved.
But his face was still pale and his hands and feet were a little weak.
“I really love to play.”
She knew that she gets motion sickness and that buses smell bad these days, but she still insisted on coming!
Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Chen Qing slowed down where he was, and when he had gathered his strength, he followed Tian Mengya.
The house of Lin Chongping's friend is specially used for other people to live in.
He is also a member of the machinery factory.
The whole family has moved into a tube-shaped building.
The old house in their family has been left here for a long time. It was originally rented out, but later the house was destroyed beyond recognition by someone else, so their family was reluctant to rent it out anymore.
Usually when he had time, he would go back to his old house and ask people he knew if anyone wanted to come to the river to play. If anyone came, he would charge 50 cents per person per day.
It's a way to make some extra money.
Chen Qing's family of four stayed for two days and was given two dollars.
Their house was simply furnished with one large bed and two small beds.
Chen Qing felt that this family was running a B&B.
He Yuxiang looked around their yard. It was not as big as theirs and a bit shabby, but fortunately it was clean.
The family put their things down and followed their host to go fishing.
Chen Qing came to Tian Mengya and asked, "Is it okay for him to run the business like this?"
"A little bit, but he only found 'friends' he knew. If someone really reported him, they would have to catch them doing the transaction. But we only paid him in his yard, so how could we be caught? Besides, the house could have been rented out at the Housing Authority."
Every policy from the top has its countermeasures from the bottom.
People who want to make money can always find thousands of ways.
Tian Mengya has been to the black market, where the goods are more complete than those in the largest department store in their city.
Chen Qing thought about it and asked in a low voice, "Do we have any houses for sale here?"
Tian Mengya: "House? Why do you want to buy a house?"
Chen Qing: “Just asking.”
She was thinking that she and He Yuan had high salaries, she had extra income, He Yuan also had extra income, and with the allowances for their two children, they could save up enough money from their main jobs.
If you keep the money it will not appreciate in value and will continue to depreciate.
It is better to buy property for everyone in your family while houses are at their cheapest.
Chen Qing’s ultimate wish in life is to become a landlady!
Tian Mengya felt that she was not asking casually, so she thought for a moment and said, "Usually, only the old natives are transferred to other places by the organization, and their family has to move before they can buy a house."
"I know."
Chen Qing also secretly inquired about it and found out that buying a house is very difficult.
Tian Mengya's family has three houses, a small Western-style building, an old house with a small courtyard, and three rooms in a large courtyard near the old house.
The house was bought by her father.
The old house was not rented out, but the rent for the three rooms in the slum was twenty-four yuan each.
You can buy a house now, but the money for buying the house must be linked to your salary.
For example, if your salary is only 36 yuan and you have to support three children, but you buy a house worth thousands of yuan, then the organization will investigate your source of income.
For example, all the money her father saved was spent on the house.
"Why do you leaders like buying houses so much?"
“The house is available for rent.”
"Then I'll help you find out later. I'm in the Finance Department, so it's relatively easy to get information in this area."
"OK."
Chen Qing nodded.
While chatting, the group arrived at the riverside and saw the vast scenery, everyone's eyes lit up.
Xiaoyu looked at the huge river with eyes wide open: "It's so big."
The river water is turbid and yellowish, but it sparkles like broken gold in the sunlight.
Waves push each other, gently hitting the rocks on the shore.
Xiaoyu stood on tiptoe to look, as if she was standing higher and could see farther.
He Yuxiang also took in the scenery of the river and suddenly felt that it was better to have money.
For example, his uncle and aunt have high salaries, so they can take them out to play on weekends.
If they have no money, they will definitely be forced to work and rush for food and drink.
Being forced to work isn't a bad thing.
Many times we just need to consider life.
His height-increasing insoles were made in cooperation with the people of Xiashui Village. Hong Dazhu's child had to do a lot of work at a young age, and the couple dared not relax for a moment, because once they relaxed a little, the child would be out of food...
He Yuxiang sighed softly.
Chen Qing came to his side and saw that he was frowning: "Are you uncomfortable seeing the water because you fell into the water before?"
"No."
He Yuxiang denied it.
He really wasn't afraid.
There are a lot of adults around me now, what are you afraid of?
Chen Qing: "Then why are you frowning?"
He Yuxiang: "I like frowning."
Chen Qing: "Are you sick?"
He Yuxiang ignored her and went to get the fishing rod.
My uncle made three fishing rods so the four members of our family can go fishing.
He Yuan chose a backwater with sparse reeds and swaying tree shadows.
He quickly set up the simple bamboo fishing rod he had brought with him.
There is a nylon fishing line tied to the top, and the fishhook is made from a bent sewing needle. It is very simple, but the fishing rod does not cost any money, so Chen Qing is very satisfied.
They have few opportunities to fish, so there is no need to spend money on fishing.
Everyone dug out some bait mixed with sesame oil and bran from an old tin can.
The earthy smell mixed with the scent of sesame oil has a strange appeal.
Chen Qing looked at the calm river and asked, "When can we go fishing?"
