Chapter 10: Moving

At nine o'clock in the morning of the second day after signing the contract, a young man in his twenties knocked on Li Xuechu's door.

"Is that Mr. Lee?" The guy looked at Li Xuechu with some surprise, but his good professionalism made him quickly put away his different colors and put on a professional smile.

"Yes, you are?"

"Oh, I'm Zhang Chengcai, an employee of XX Real Estate Company, and this is my work ID." The guy hurriedly took out his papers.

Li Xuechu didn't think about it so much, so he took a casual look and returned it.

"I want to rent a house, the house is a little more spacious, the surrounding environment is better, and the transportation is convenient." Li Xuechu directly made a request.

Zhang Chengcai smiled: "No problem, we have considered these requirements before, and now the company has three houses for Mr. Li to choose from, if Mr. Li is free now, why don't we go and have a look together?" ”

"Okay."

Li Xuechu got into the car, and Zhang Chengcai handed him a document, which was the general situation of the three houses. Li Xuechu didn't look at it carefully, anyway, he saw the real thing after a while, and only looked at the price and size: two thousand yuan, four bedrooms and two living rooms, one thousand six, three bedrooms and two living rooms, one thousand two, three bedrooms and one living room. There is no pressure at this price, and the remuneration for two or three days is enough.

Both of them are young people, and after a few casual conversations, the atmosphere is lively, not as restrained as at the beginning. Zhang Chengcai was more curious about this young man who was a few years younger than his younger brother, and pretended to ask about Xiao Li's situation casually. Li Xuechu couldn't say anything except about the crossing, and he didn't feel that there was anything to hide, so he told the truth. Knowing that Li Xuechu was still a novelist, Zhang Chengcai was in awe.

"I've submitted articles to newspapers before, but unfortunately they have never returned." Zhang Chengcai looked at Li Xuechu, who was too young to speak, and shook his head with a wry smile, "I don't know which wastebasket those manuscripts are in now." ”

"If you're interested, hold on a little longer, who can say these things clearly? Maybe next time. Li Xuechu comforted.

"Forget it, there are some things that can't be forced." Zhang Chengcai can also see it, "I'm quite satisfied with my current job, so I don't need to change it." There are so many people in Xiangjiang who want to be famous, how many can do it? By the way, what's the name of your novel? ”

"Home Alone, just finished serializing, and now published is a drunken hero."

"Home alone? I've been reading it lately, but I haven't read the previous issues, and I'm going to flip through the old newspapers. This story is really interesting, I didn't expect to come across the original here. Zhang Chengcai added in his heart, "I'm still so young." ”

Talking and laughing, it doesn't take long to get to the place. Li Xuechu first looked at it from a young age, and when he saw the second family, he decided on one thousand sixteen. You don't have to look at the back one, it's just one person, the house is too big and it feels empty.

Room 4o1, Block B, Yali Garden, No. 43 Broadcasting Road, this is Li Xuechu's current address, and Zhang Chengcai said that many of the residents in the vicinity here are employees of TV or radio stations.

In addition to the two TV stations of Wireless and Li, there are also two radio stations, Xiangjiang Radio and Commercial Radio, plus the now defunct Jiayi TV Station, which is just five, so it is nicknamed "Wutai Mountain" by the people of Xiangjiang. However, now there are only "Sitai", and the name of Wutai Mountain is no longer worthy of the name.

The house was set, I paid a deposit for half a year, asked the original landlord to return the original house, and moved out with Zhang Chengcai's enthusiastic help. After inviting people to have a meal, Li Xuechu settled down in the radio road. The simple furniture in the house is all available, and you don't need to buy it anymore, you can move in with your bag. Zhang Chengcai said that these are left by the original homeowner, which can be used for free, and if it is damaged, it can be compensated according to the price, or it can be bought at a discount now. Zhang Chengcai handed Li Xuechu a list, all of which were the prices of some furniture, Li Xuechu looked cheap, so he directly paid for it, it was quite new, and it would save the future because of these little things.

Arrange your belongings and clean the house. Li Xuechu looked at the spacious room and felt very satisfied. The surrounding environment is good, and there is the Lion Rock Country Park a few steps away, which has all kinds of fitness and leisure equipment. The transportation is also convenient, the room itself is also good, lighting and ventilation are good. The only thing that doesn't look good is that there are too few things in the room, and the room I used to live in seems empty, but now the house is twice as big, and it looks even more empty. But it's not in a hurry, I feel like there's something missing, just add it slowly.

If he didn't know some things in the future, Li Xuechu really wanted to buy the house directly. In two years' time, during the Sino-British negotiations, with the political iron lady planting a heel in the Great Hall of the People, the housing prices of Hong Kong will fall like a collapsing stock market, and the Hong Kong currency will also depreciate sharply. The Iron Lady planted a heel, and the originally aggressive British also ate a nose of ash in Zhongnanhai. However, Western governments, which are accustomed to playing small actions, have quite a way to do it in all aspects. Beginning in '82, with the acquiescence or instigation of the British government in Hong Kong, British-funded banks such as HSBC and Standard Chartered began to print more money by a large margin, leading to a sharp depreciation of the Hong Kong currency, in order to encourage the people of Hong Kong to spread their anger to the north and put pressure on the government.

In just a few months, the Xiangjiang dollar fell sharply from more than five yuan to one dollar to more than nine dollars, and fell below 10 yuan at the highest. In the end, it was decided that further depreciation would inevitably affect its own interests, and the country's position was not shaken, so it began to clean up the mess, and finally announced a new policy on October 15, 83, pegging it to the US knife at a fixed exchange rate of 1 US dollar to 7.8 Xiangjiang dollars, which was regarded as the end of this farce. This is the end of the game between governments, but the common people have been pitted very badly, and many people's hard-earned wealth has shrunk by more than half in a year, and has been directly eaten by British banks and international financial players.

Knowing the direction of history, maybe speculating on currencies is a good choice? Throughout the first ten years of Xiangjiang, there were countless rich people who rose and fell, and there were many people who got rich overnight or went bankrupt overnight. Many wealthy banks do not have a little money left, feeling that they are afraid that the wealth invested in the investment will fly away, and most of the money will be converted into stocks and real estate, and there will be countless bankruptcies in the event of turmoil. In the end, the gambling nature of the people of Xiangjiang or the Chinese is still too big, but unfortunately not everyone is a gambling god, but they are not gambling, and the hole cards have been seen in advance, right? Li Xuechu is not proficient in currency speculation, but it is still very easy to avoid risks, according to this situation, the money to buy a house now will be left over after buying two sets, and as long as it takes less than two years.

"Hehe, you can buy a villa when the time comes." Li Xuechu thought about beautiful things in his heart. Li Xuechu can't manage or be able to manage major national affairs, but no matter how many small actions they make, they can't move anything in the future, and leaving is a certainty anyway.

As a later generation, Li Xuechu understands the direction of the history exhibition more clearly than others, although there is a butterfly effect and the like, but at least he has to grow into a decisive tycoon before he can influence the trend of history, and now he will influence the surrounding area at most.

The revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard!

I don't think about it, it's almost time to go to class.

It used to take two buses, but now it's only a five-minute walk, which is much more convenient.

There are not many people in Xiangjiang who like to study music now, although the record market has shown some signs of prosperity, but it will take a few years to drive it to the basic level, and there is not even a good music academy now. And after 20 years, it suddenly turned from prosperity to decline, and the film industry in Xiangjiang can be regarded as sympathetic.

When I arrived at the venue, there were still a few minutes before the class started, and after saying hello to a few "peers" who were studying music together, I found a seat on my own. However, a few little children posted it again, which made Li Xuechu feel very helpless.

"Chu Zai, where are you from the big 6? There is a Shanghainese living next door to my house, and I feel that my speech is very different from yours. ”

"Big 6 is very big, and there are very, very many accents in various local dialects, like Dongguang, isn't it the same as Xiangjiang?"

"It's different, the accent is audible as soon as you hear it."

This Li Xuechu really doesn't know, it's good to be able to speak Xiangjiang dialect well, and the accent or something is considered an advanced course, and I'll talk about it later.

"Are the big 6 people all poor, I heard my old bean say that they can't afford to eat." ……

Li Xuechu knew that life in China was very difficult before the reform and opening up, but he didn't know exactly what kind of situation it was. It was a strange time for me. However, looking at the current situation in Xiangjiang, there are many people with seven or eight people crammed into a small house of more than ten square meters, and the poor are also quite poor, and there are really a lot of them. Sham Shui Po is pretty good, but in Yau Ma Tei, Kowloon Walled City or something, it is even poorer, and the law and order in these two places is very chaotic. Especially the Kowloon Walled City, where two dead people died in three days, Li Xuechu had never been to this place until now, and he didn't dare to go.

These places will be put in the future generations, proper national-level poor counties, the kind of extreme poverty, and will be sprayed to death by netizens if they are not rated.

In this way, there are still mainlanders who are not afraid of death running over one after another, it seems that the country is really bitter now, or maybe they don't know anything, and they really think that Xiangjiang is full of gold?

Listening to a few little children talking about various rumors about the mainland, Li Xuechu was quite speechless. If these are true, it is a real "hell on earth". When one region doesn't know about another, people always guess at the best or the worst. Now they are just curious, and they don't know what it will be like in the future.

Fortunately, I didn't stay up for a few minutes and went to class.
