Chapter One Hundred and Two Buying a House
Da Gang was arranged by Li Zhendong to send a telegram. Li Zhendong, who sent the convoy away, thought of buying a house.
If you want to develop in business, you must have a place to stay. At that time, he lived with the village chief, Uncle Huang, and was thinking about short-term business actions. Now that the decision has been made, the approach is different. Buying a house is a must, and it has to be big. The larger the house, the larger the space, and the higher the comfort. Money is not to be worried! In that case, let's buy it.
Li Zhendong, a former government official, is now thinking about the changes in China's urban housing system. Slowly recalling some basic common sense. The period from 1979 to '85 was the theoretical preparation stage for housing reform, and this stage was accompanied by the exploration process of pilot house sales. This is the first stage of the historical change of urban housing in China, which can be divided into five stages.
Seventy-nine years ago, the state had recognized that the system of allocated housing was no longer sustainable. With the beginning of the selection of the first batch of pilot cities in seven or nine years. Four cities, Anxi in Shaanxi Province and Liushi, Wu and Ningnan in Gui Province, were selected to gradually implement the new policy. Newly built housing is sold to the employees of the unit. At that time, this policy was implemented by the state, units, and individuals to sell houses reasonably. In 82, the scope of the pilot project was expanded, and Zhengshi, Changshi, Pingsi, and Shashi were selected, and in 84 years, they began to select sites in the country, and steadily improved in the country.
Li Zhendong didn't have any idea about the allocation of housing for these workers, and the apartment type at this time was too small, basically one bedroom and one living room to two bedrooms and one living room. At this time, this type of house cannot be sold, at most it is subletted. He is interested in the private housing in the hands of urban residents, many of which are facades and houses combined, suitable for both commercial and residential uses. A lot of them are old houses from previous eras.
Li Zhendong found the village head, Uncle Huang, the local people must be very familiar with the deep area, and asked Uncle Huang to find someone to take him to see. "Buying a house?" Uncle Huang stopped what he was doing. Li Zhendong explained with a smile that he may be here for a long time, this is always where the elderly live, and life is a little inconvenient. All I brought with me were young lads. The next step is likely to be more people coming, and there will be more troubles on the road.
"Where do you want to buy a house?" "It's best to be in the central city, it's good to be big enough" Li Zhendong has already thought about it. In the 80s, the Shenzhen District had just been upgraded to a city, and the area was large enough, and there were not many people at this time. The city in the Shenzhen District is divided into special economic zones and non-special economic zones, and the second-tier customs are still being built. Uncle Huang's village should belong to the urban village.
Looking for someone who is familiar with the city? Uncle Huang thought about it, "Xiaodong, you wait, I'll call someone for you." Uncle Huang, who came back soon, brought a young man with him. "Xiaodong, this is Ah Tao, who is familiar with the situation around the deep area market, let him take you for a walk." Ah Tao is a son and nephew of the village chief Huang Bo, who is not far away, and belongs to Huang Bo's grandchildren. Li Zhendong looked at it, the young man was not tall, he looked quite smart, and he had a cheerful smile on his face.
Ah Tao has long known that the second grandfather of Lu Dao lives here. All the people in the village knew about it, and a few days ago, they gave candy, biscuits, and the like to the children who watched the excitement. It's impossible not to know the road, there are often cars coming and going, and soldiers come and go every day. Someone inquired with the second grandfather, and the second grandfather only vaguely said that he was from the mainland to sell things.
This matter is not a secret, after a long time, the villagers know that the road is from the inland provinces to transport things to the big boss in the port area, and the people in the village often mention this matter when they chat. Huang Deding, the big boss of this port area, is also from this place for his ancestors, and he is still related to many people in the village. This business is not small, the car runs every day, and everyone knows that this group of people must be very rich.
Uncle Huang said that he wanted to buy a house, and Ah Tao volunteered to say that I wanted to go to get in touch with this group of people. Li Zhendong and Da Niu talked and walked towards the city.
Watching Li Zhendong and his group leave, Uncle Huang always felt that he seemed to have missed something. Uncle Huang muttered to himself, when people are old, they can't think about things? Shaking his head and turning around to do something, he didn't walk a few steps, and suddenly remembered something, and slapped his thigh: Hey, why did you forget about this? There are two families in the village who are also relatives who have immigrated abroad, and they have entrusted themselves with finding a house to sell. Of course, there are more than two immigrants in the village, even Huang Deding's family has already immigrated. Huang Deding's old house only had seven or eight rooms, and there was no way to compare with these two.
On the way, Ah Tao asked where he wanted to look. Li Zhendong told him that it was best to go to the area of Dongmen Old Street. There are two plans to buy here. The next step is to find a store to sell some scattered goods, and a few points of long-term selling are different from setting up a stall on the street, giving people different confidence. If you set up a stall, you can transfer the things that you don't sell well, and I have a façade and the owner of the house, where can I go? If you can run, the monk can't run the temple.
There was a time when people had to go to state-run and public stores to buy valuables. I believe that what is in the public is necessarily a really good thing. What Li Zhendong wants to do is also want a similar effect.
According to the speed of construction and development of the deep area, sooner or later the vicinity of this east gate will have to be renovated. I bought a house by myself, and when the time comes, I will move out, and this compensation will be a few taels of meat, right? Or, build a large store here yourself? Do you have the ability to do so? Li Zhendong didn't take this seriously at all.
Dongmen Old Street is not a street, but actually refers to more than a dozen streets around the East Gate. In later generations, the East Gate area was the most prosperous area in the deep area.
"The house in this area is more expensive," Tao was curious. Who is this teenager? Doing business at a young age, he always has people with him. "It's okay, you can find it" Can the price of houses in this era be compared with later generations?
No wonder it is said that snakes have snake paths and rats have rat holes. As an authentic native of the deep district, Li Zhendong saw Ah Tao running to the houses on the street, talking and laughing with people from time to time, and sometimes making exaggerated gestures when talking to people to emphasize what he said. It didn't take long for Ah Tao to get the news and ran back, saying that he had heard that several families were selling their houses.
There are two or three storey houses on the street, and the lower floor is rarely used as a shop, usually for sundries or residents. Very few people open the ground floor directly to do business. Li Zhendong looked at it for a long time and found that the doors on the first floor of many homes were very distinctive. It's not a big iron door or something, but there is a groove above and below the door frame, and when the door is closed, a piece of wood is put into it along the groove, and there is a horizontal wooden square bolt in the back of the door to close the door. When he was selling, he opened a few wooden planks and set up a small stall on the street outside his house, similar to the current unlicensed itinerant hawkers.
