Chapter 60: It's time to move

Not to mention that Minister Goto is struggling to organize the competition, and not mentioning that Shimizu Tomoshi is also waiting for Yumizu. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Shanhe has been very moist recently.

The offshore company was handed over to Citibank, and the procedures were very fast, but the most time-consuming thing was the mail flying around in the air, and even the price was extremely low, only $10 to register. Give Citibank another $100 in processing and you're done.

It's good to have money.

Good things come in pairs, and another thing worth writing about is that he can finally move out of Paradise Village.

"Excuse me. Teacher, are you there? ”

Maiko Saotome entered the entrance and shouted into the room. Sunlight shines in through the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room, reflecting a soft light on the floor.

"Oh, the kitchens are all closed. The decoration is also good, great, I am satisfied! ”

Li Shanhe poked his head out of the kitchen and laughed heartily.

The new apartment was exactly what he said, there was no trace of the smell of a Japanese-style house, the smell of inferior tatami mats was really bad after a long time, and the floor was good.

Maiko nodded: "It's good if you're satisfied." 80 sqm, simply renovated, unfurnished, well lit, elegant, 15 minutes from the metro and with a small balcony - this is the most qualified residential communion house we can find. ”

Li Shanhe returned to the living room, the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, the only two windows that could be opened were diagonally downward, and Li Shanhe used a little strength to push. The refreshing air pours in and lifts people's spirits.

"What about the monthly rent?"

"8,500 yen. 2 months gift money, 2 months deposit, fire insurance, management fees, etc. For you, teacher, it's just a drop in the bucket. Maiko Saotome said, closing her notebook.

"Well, that's good. Although it is a little more expensive, it is not much more demanding. ”

Li Shanhe nodded with satisfaction, and he could finally move out of Paradise Village. It's really not appropriate to be a millionaire and live in an apartment like that. Although the human touch in the paradise village is very good, it is too embarrassing to share the toilet with others.

It's not a city center, but you can buy another car, and judging from Google Maps, it will develop into a bustling commercial area in a few years. The key is 80 flat, 80 flat, 80 flat! Say the important thing three times!

"Housing corporation, what a good thing." He couldn't help but sigh.

Housing prices in Japan give the impression that they are extremely high. But in the rental market, it's the other way around, and it's incredibly cheap, all because of this organization called the "Housing Corporation".

The Housing Corporation is a bit like low-rent housing, built on state-owned land, with dense high-rise buildings leaning against each other, called "danji" in Japanese - if you feel familiar, classmates, you have a lot of masturbation. (Good boy, don't go to Baidu)

Unlike low-cost housing, the Housing Corporation guarantees "middle-class" housing, and its goal is clear from the beginning, that is, to make renters only take up 40% of their income!

For example, the paradise village where Li Shanhe used to live is privately owned land, and such houses can be found all over Tokyo, usually two-story houses, which look very informal, like the tin houses of the construction site. With a rent of 2,000 yen, you can live in Tokyo with only 20% of your income compared to the 10,000 yen salary of a recent college graduate.

In the housing corporation, an 80-square-meter house costs only 8,500 yen, which is suitable for people who have worked for five or six years and whose salary has risen to 2 or 30,000 yuan, or small couples who rent together.

There are also some single apartments, living in a 30-square-meter house for only 3 or 4,000 yen per month, and you can rent it if you have a job, can you believe it?

Even in the era of 200,000 yuan per capita income of graduates, houses of 7 or 80,000 yuan can be seen everywhere, and only those below 60,000 yuan need to be grabbed.

Japan has a total population of only 100 million, and Tokyo alone accounts for one-tenth of the country's population, relying on the existence of the housing corporation to suppress the rental market and continuously attract foreign talents to live in the metropolitan area.

With cheap rents and a lifetime employment system guaranteeing employment, it's no wonder that many people complain that Japan is more like a socialist country.

"This house is really good, if I want to buy it, how much will it cost?" Li Shanhe's hoarding fetish attacked, and he turned his head and asked.

Wuzi spit out a number, which made Li Shanhe's heart jump violently, Nima, it's too scary, the rent is so cheap, but the house price is amazingly expensive, with his current net worth, he has to buy it without eating or drinking for more than half a year.

Rents are low, while private land prices have been rising. The contradiction between the two is deep.

As a result of this contradiction, in the craziest years of the real estate bubble, due to some ulterior motives, the housing corporation temporarily ceased to operate, which directly led to the rapid rise of land prices in Japan, and the economic bubble was pushed up wildly, so that there were 30 years of loss after the bubble burst.

Since then, houses have changed from investment to consumer goods, and the price of a built house will fall by half in ten years, and it will not be sold at all. The tragedy after the bubble burst can be seen.

China also almost followed in Japan's footsteps, but fortunately stepped over.

"Okay, I rented it." Li Shanhe nodded and asked Maiko to bring the rental contract.

Although the housing corporation is good, the Japanese also have to line up to get a number. Not to mention foreigners. For those like Li Shanhe who refuse to become naturalized, if they want to rent such a good house, they have to wait until the Year of the Monkey to go through the month, and they can only be attached to large enterprises, and these enterprises will come forward to help with the procedures.

"By the way, teacher, the editor-in-chief asked me to tell you that the rent can be hung on the accounts of the printing house, so that you can avoid taxes."

Li Shanhe's hand shook, and there was such a good thing? He waved his hand: "Then what are you waiting for?" It just so happens that I don't think 80 square meters is enough, so let's rent it next door! ”

Originally, he rented a big house just to facilitate the help of his assistant. The assistant sometimes works overtime and sleeps in the manga artist's house at night, and it is of course better to rent two rooms than one.

The corners of Maiko's mouth twitched, she didn't say anything, and silently accepted the contract.

Li Shanhe sighed, what is a rich man, and those who do not pay taxes are rich. The rich put all their private consumption on the company's accounts, and it seems that the company's profits have decreased, but the taxes have also decreased, and what should be enjoyed is not bad at all. Even, Warren Buffett, the stock god, admits that his secretary pays more taxes than him.

However, this is also flawed, as once the shares are confiscated or the company goes bankrupt, the rich man will not even have a place to live in his own house, because it is attached to the company, not his own.

However, this is not something that Li Shanhe should worry about for the time being.

The next step is to buy, buy, buy, buy.

Shueisha said that he could help send a car to move, and brought his belongings over, but he was refused. There is almost no furniture there, and besides, the rent is not due yet, so there is no hurry to move.

It took him all morning to shop in the mall. Originally, the rented house was furnished, but Li Shanhe was really not used to Japanese-style furniture, so it was better to buy it himself.

I put all kinds of furniture together, and then handed it to Maiko and asked her to set it up.

Sweating profusely, Maiko directs the workers to place the furniture. And Li Shanhe is like a child, sitting happily on the floor, unpacking the newly bought household appliances one by one, and enjoying the fun of unboxing.

When the sun was about to set, Maiko finally finished packing up the bags on the floor and said, "Teacher, the room has been moved, the furniture has been bought, and I should be able to hand in the manuscript of the new comics!" Last time, "Crayon Xiaoxin" didn't reveal anything to me, but I was complained about by the editor-in-chief! ”

"So you're waiting here?" Li Shanhe stretched his waist on the new sofa and turned on the TV, "Okay, for the sake of your good service today, let's talk about your opinion." ”
