Chapter 136: The House

Each level has its own troubles, and it is true.

Bian Jiangong's troubles are naturally the house.

But to be honest, his personal conditions are not bad.

There are three small rooms in the family, after all, there is a hut for him.

If you really start from objective facts, the house is actually a long-term and common problem faced by the majority of people in Beijing, there are too many people, and the conditions are far inferior to him.

According to statistics, in 1978, the per capita living area of urban residents in China was only 6.7 square meters.

There were no houses, and crowded households accounted for more than 40% of the households at that time.

So from this time on, the housing problem has become a serious social problem.

And although since 1979, the state has also begun to solve the housing problem through various methods, but the demand for housing has not grown as fast.

Faced with the "movement" of demobilization, decentralization, and repatriation of cadres and the population explosion of the generation of educated youth, the generation of educated youth returned to the city in a concentrated manner, and no amount of housing was enough.

So even if it is forced, the government has even come up with such emergency measures as "receiving, pushing, and expanding".

Even in the courtyard and on the street, it has become a common phenomenon that people spontaneously build privately.

But by 1983, the per capita living area in Beijing was still in a grim situation, and there was no improvement.

Even if it did not increase, it decreased, from 6.7 square meters to 4.74 square meters.

Perhaps for today's young people, most people feel that relying on self-reliance and owning a house of their own in a first-tier city is a lifelong dream.

I feel that I will have to pay a high loan for a house for a few years or decades.

Most of the time, when this dream comes true, you will find that you have already gray temples and a full house of children and grandchildren, which is a bit unworthy.

As a result, many people will envy their parents and miss the era of that generation of public house-management.

But as everyone knows, the situation faced by their parents back then was much more difficult than theirs.

Because no matter how difficult this dream is, there is at least a way to realize it today.

If you take out a loan to buy a house, you can at least live in it first.

In those days, in the standard planned economic system, there was no other way than to rely on the division of units and the benevolence of leaders.

Such a situation almost makes people who don't have a good unit desperate.

Nowadays, people need a house more than the economic value of the house, at least it is easy to find a place to sleep.

At that time, the generation did not see the house as a property that could increase in value, nor did it regard it as a condition for marrying a wife, or as a superior living condition.

It's completely pitiful to the simplest survival needs.

Thousands of families are in the dilemma of three generations living together, parents and children in the same room, and brothers and sisters in the same room, just longing for a space that can accommodate several bodies.

Therefore, there are many people who choose a lifelong partner for the sake of the house, and choose a job they don't like for the sake of the house.

Even many people who finally returned to the city were forced to take the initiative to go to the remote mountainous areas in desperation.

This is the same as voluntarily giving up one's future and life.

But that's not all.

Even those who can divide the room will not be very moisturized.

Because first of all, the state has hard and fast regulations on the living area of employees.

The standard for ordinary workers is a first-class dwelling, and the average floor area of each unit is only allowed to be 40 to 45 square meters.

At the county and department level or above is the standard for second-class housing, 60 to 70 square meters.

Secondly, most units do not have the ability to build their own houses.

In more cases, it is deployed by vacating old houses under the name of the unit to meet the needs of employees.

In terms of the quality of housing, the best ones are tube buildings and simple buildings, followed by bungalows, row houses, or houses for other purposes.

So even these lucky ones.

In the living situation, I still have to endure the inconveniences of narrow space, no privacy, difficulty in going to the toilet, and difficulty in cooking.

In fact, many people today believe that local residents in first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou have caught up with the good era of rapid development of the real estate industry.

Basically, if you don't have to do anything, you will become landlords who "eat rent", and almost all of them are moths fed by outsiders.

This kind of thinking is even more self-righteous and generalized.

Because the real situation is that the only people who really enjoy this benefit are the farmers who used to live in the suburbs of Beijing, and later demolished due to the expansion of the city.

The real old residents of the first-tier cities, except for those who had multiple properties in their ancestors and could come back smoothly.

It is difficult to profit from the skyrocketing value of real estate.

The vast majority of those who remain in the city are still trapped in a corner of the city center.

Don't look at the housing prices alone, they are scared to death, what a good location, and a school district house, but no one dares to sell it.

Because whether they enjoy the benefits of housing sharing or those who do not, the per capita area is too small and the use of self-occupation is limited.

If you sell your house, you won't be able to live?

So these people are only nominally rich, and they have wealth that cannot be realized.

It's just looking at the life of the poor in a narrow space with their eyes on high-rise buildings.

Their real living conditions are no more nourishing than those of newcomers.

This proves two truths, life is often this mountain looking at that mountain high, and everyone only sees the good of others.

And then there's the fact that history is cyclical.

There are some difficulties that no one can avoid, some problems that can never be changed, and problems that can never be encountered without changing social classes.

Okay, let's go back, and then talk about Bian Jiangong.

According to the normal situation at this moment, even if his kid can make money again, this difficulty cannot be solved.

Who made him just a taxi driver?

But he has a neighbor like Hong Yanwu by his side, which has become his greatest luck, and the natural problem is not a problem.

The most interesting thing is that when it comes to this luck, it is still the kind that is extremely lucky.

Because Hong Yanwu not only has two or three sets of eight or ninety square meters of director-level three bedrooms in his hands, he originally had the confidence to solve this problem.

The most important thing is that this kid did this job in his last life.

In addition, don't forget that before officially engaging in demolition and relocation, Hong Yanwu also followed Gao Ming to toss the sale of second-hand houses for a while.

I have heard and witnessed what people in this industry did in the early days of reform and opening up, and I can't find it clear.

In terms of how to get a house these days, he is a real professional, what can he do to him?

He knows best that due to the transition from a planned economy to a commodity economy, there are different channels for investment and housing construction and different housing distribution standards.

The real situation of housing in the capital is bittersweet and uneven.

Don't look at the common people who don't have houses, but some of the officials have houses and are idle for a long time.

Director Song is a typical representative of officials.

And these people have too many houses to live in, so some people think of exchanging these houses for money.

The rent is not worth mentioning, and the best room is only nine cents per square meter, which is the official price.

If it weren't for the high price he offered, Director Song's house would rather be rotten than rented.

In this way, since the reform and opening up, the earliest housing transactions have also appeared.

The second group has been opened, group number: 608640021
