Yang Xiaobei praised sincerely, "You have good vision and foresight. You can rent out those houses first and then make a decision after seeing how the situation develops. If we have more money later, or if the policy changes, we can build two buildings at that 300-square-meter area and 500-square-meter area and rent them out later. You can collect rent on a half-year or yearly basis and won't be too tired." How great it would be then that Shushu would have an income every month and not be tired. She wouldn't be as tired as she is now, even though her period comes early.
"No, I think you have better vision than I do." I bought the house because I analyzed the current situation, but it was more based on my preconceived notion of future real estate booms based on historical precedent. Unlike Xiaobei, a native of this place, who sees things so clearly, if he had given up politics for business, he would have been a successful businessman.
Yang Xiaobei returned the passbook to Jiang Shushu and said, "Keep it safe."
Yang Xiaobei thought of the deposit in the passbook and said without hesitation, "Shushu, I want to discuss something with you. I want to invest 30,000 yuan."
"What are you going to do?"
"Build a house."
"You don't plan to work in police force anymore? Don't you like it very much? Our family is not short of money, why would you give up the job you love?" Jiang Shushu said with a look of disapproval.
"No, I like being a police officer, so I'll keep doing it. I've been thinking a lot about this during the past few months when you've been out and about. I really like being a police officer, but I can't ignore my responsibilities just because I like it. I'm a husband and a father. I won't talk about a rich and luxurious life, but at least I have to make sure you don't have to worry about money." Otherwise, I won't feel at ease as a police officer.
"We are husband and wife. The family is our shared responsibility, not just yours. You don't have to take on everything; it's exhausting. The money I earn also contributes to the family. If we work together, our family won't have to worry about money. I'm not some three-year-old child who needs constant care. As a couple, we should stick together. I just need to do my best to take care of the family."
"Wife, I know what you mean, but if I can do better, I want to do better." Having extra money in hand is a retreat at any time and in any place, and it is a necessary condition for moving forward. No matter what the reason is, we should plan ahead and hold on to the money we can get.
"Then what do you want to do? I support you." It's just 30,000 yuan, it's not a big deal. Even if you are unlucky and fail, the cost of trial and error is affordable.
"Do you remember my classmate Qian Xiaobao?"
"I remember that he came to invite us personally when he got married." Although Jiang Shushu had only met Qian Xiaobao once, he had a very good impression of Qian Xiaobao because Qian Xiaobao was so good at dealing with people and talking.
"I've been in private contact with Xiaobao. He resigned over two months ago. He's very optimistic about the real estate market and plans to build and then sell properties. But he doesn't have enough funds. Three days ago, Xiaobao contacted me and asked if I was interested in investing. He said he could write a certificate and a contract, and I could do the work I like. He would share the profits with me in proportion."
"Why did he resign? Doesn't he like being a police officer as much as you do?"
"He had a hard time this year. You know, not long after he got married, the news of the college entrance examination came. Xiaobao also wanted his wife to have a better development in the future, so he also supported his wife in taking the college entrance examination. When his wife was preparing for the exam, Xiaobao took care of everything at home and outside, and did not let his wife be distracted. His wife was admitted to the provincial university as she wished, but his wife went out to study, and after only one semester, she came back and asked for a divorce from Xiaobao..." What an ungrateful person.
Jiang Shushu exclaimed: "Oh my God, this... his wife is cheating on him?" Qian Xiaobao's conditions are not bad either.
"Well, Xiaobao went to the provincial capital university to check, and found out that the woman was having an affair with her classmate. The man's family was wealthy, and he often gave her gifts. Over time, the woman fell in love and felt she had found true love." "Foolish woman, a man who knows you're married still tries to seduce you. What do you think he is? What do you think you are to him? Sooner or later, she'll regret it."
"What happened next?" If I were Qian Xiaobao, I would definitely divorce this kind of woman and even spit out everything she had eaten. What the hell?
"Divorce. Although Xiaobao is usually cheerful and has a good temper, he has a strong sense of self-respect. That woman has rubbed his dignity on the ground. Divorce is necessary." Any man with a bit of blood in his veins will not tolerate cheating during his marriage. Once unfaithful, he will never tolerate it again.
"What I want to know is how did the divorce happen? Did anyone who was dumb suffer any loss?"
"No, this guy is very smart. Besides, he is a police officer after all. How could he just swallow this bitter pill? Xiaobao didn't make a fuss. He went straight to the woman with the evidence in his hand and asked her to return the money Xiaobao spent on her. He also asked the woman to find a random reason to bear the blame for the divorce." If it wasn't for the shame of losing face after all, how could he let her go so easily?
"At least I didn't suffer too much." Being cheated on emotionally is bad enough, but if you were cheated of your money as well, it would be really infuriating.
"But this incident still has some impact on Xiaobao, and there's always gossip. Although Xiaobao graduated with excellent grades, the positions there are already full. Unless something unexpected happens, there will be no chance of promotion for the next eight years. If he can't get promoted in the next few years, it will be even more difficult to get promoted in the future as he gets older.
Faced with a dilemma between his future and his passion, Xiaobao chose a more promising and better path. He and I were classmates for two years, and we've stayed in touch since graduation. I trust his character, ability, and vision. If this project takes off, our family won't have to worry about the future. "As long as the house is built, there's no problem selling it."
"This is a great idea. I support it. Is 30,000 enough? If not, we can always add more."
"That's enough. He's been doing business lately and has saved quite a bit of money. Although the country has agreed to open up the economy, things like land and housing are still strictly controlled. The mayor next door launched a housing project in March, selling the houses after they're built to alleviate the housing shortage."
If private individuals participate in house construction, the government will only collect 10% of the houses built with your money, and the rest will belong to the private individual.
Xiaobao and I speculate that the government may be short on funds, so they allow private participation. However, there are financial requirements for participating in this project, and the minimum net worth cannot be less than 60,000 yuan.
