Chapters 571-572

Shi Man always thought that he was busy enough, shopping for things and working to make money, but she went online a few times and Wang Qiqi seemed to be busier than her, every time she was not online, but there was no reply or a little word, Qiqi said that she was tired and wanted to go to sleep, once or twice Shi Man was puzzled.

Wang Qiqi yawned and just wanted to tell Shi Man that she was going to go back to sleep, but when she saw the message from Shi Man, she was surprised, because the message from Shi Man was Qiqi, you won't be pregnant, otherwise why do you always want to sleep.

Seeing such a sentence, Wang Qiqi's mouth squirted out of the grapes, "My mother, am I a pregnant person like this?" ”

Wang Qiqi typed the keyboard: You are just pregnant, I am just a little tired recently.

Of course, Shi Man knew that someone was tired, but the question was: What have you been busy with lately, you are tired like this, I am not tired like this, you won't be tired like this every day for the two men to do housework and cook recently.

Shi Man thought to herself that it was not impossible, but she thought to herself, could it be that the two men saw that Qiqi was busy like this, and they were embarrassed to let Qiqi deliver food, even if it was quite close to the place where Han Tao worked, but two meals a day plus cleaning was absolutely tiring, "Your man is really ruthless enough, let you send food, the man can't be too spoiled, otherwise it will only get more and more excessive, look at you now."

Shi Man's maintenance Wang Qiqi felt very warm: Actually, I always make the lunch and dinner of the two of them in the morning and let them take them with me, I just make do with it at noon, and if they come back, I will make it, and if not, I will also order noodles.

Wang Qiqi's words made Shi Man really puzzled, since he didn't send food, Dai Lijun just went back to sleep, how could he make a mess of the room, and suddenly Shi Man seemed to think of something: You won't go to find a house, right.

Wang Qiqi felt a pain in her head when she saw the house: I bought so many houses, and this time is the most troublesome. I want to do a good job of the strategy, and then show it to Han Tao, and then find him to go to see the house together when he has time, one word is tired, two words are so tired, and three words are too tired.

Wang Qiqi is really sad when she thinks about the process of buying a house by herself in the past few days, sometimes I really feel that how to buy a house such a major matter has to be handled by our female man, of course, in fact, this matter is not very tired, but Wang Qiqi can't drive, if there is a car. In fact, it's quite easy: Manman, I must learn to drive when I go back this time, it's really inconvenient to have no car here.

There are subways and buses in China, and then there are taxis, as long as you don't stay in too remote places, you don't have to worry about traveling, but here you don't have to say that there are very few buses, and basically they are all over the city, and taxis are not all over the street. Even if she can stop the car, Wang Qiqi doesn't dare to sit it, it's too expensive, and Wang Qiqi is worried that she won't be able to call the car when she goes back. That's really crying to death, no one is pitied.

Regarding the problem that Wang Qiqi complained about, Shi Man didn't feel so deeply, because her range of activities was not so wide, and Feng Xuanxiang had a car. If he wanted to go to a distant place, Shi Man would wait for Feng Xuanxiang to go when he had time.

After Wang Qiqi and Shi Man vented, their mood suddenly improved a lot: Girl. At the critical time, my girlfriend is good, and I can't make Han Tao very unhappy for such a thing, but such days are coming to an end, I have taken a fancy to a few houses, but I don't know if Han Tao is satisfied, because where is it forty minutes to ride a bicycle from where Han Tao works, I am worried that he will not agree.

Such a far house, although Shi Man knows that such a small car distance is really not very far in the United States, but she has been to the place where Wang Qiqi and they stayed before, which is also a satellite city, not very big, if you count according to the distance Wang Qiqi said, it is really on the edge of the city: Aren't you planning to buy a house near the community you are currently renting, why do you have to go so far? Is it because of money?

Wang Qiqi: It would be nice if it was money, but the problem is that none of the people in this neighborhood are poor money, plus they also work in this neighborhood, there is no reason to change the house to a farther place, the environment and facilities here are good, and there is no reason to change it, alas

Shi Man has an idea: your landlord doesn't know if Lu Dao wants to sell, when I went to live at your house last year, I chatted with them, and I felt that they seemed to be intent on moving out, saying that the climate here is not very good for the old lady's health.

Shi Man's news surprised Wang Qiqi, the landlord wanted to move out? THIS NEWS MADE WANG QIQI HAPPY AT FIRST, BUT THEN SHE DIMMED AGAIN, IF THE LANDLORD WANTS TO SELL THE HOUSE, IT MAKES NO SENSE HAN TAO DOESN'T KNOW THE NEWS, JOHN IS THEIR SON PLUS HAN TAO HAS A GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM HAN TAO, AND HE ALSO ASKED HIM TO HELP FIND A HOUSE, IF MARK THEY ARE INTERESTED IN SELLING THE HOUSE, JOHN WILL NOT FAIL TO SAY THE NEWS.

Wang Qiqi thought to herself that this old couple is not short of money, although the old man is retired, he is also tossing in the stock market, and his net worth is not thin, maybe it is convenient for him to keep the house and come back to live at any time.

Originally, Wang Qiqi wanted to go around the neighborhood in the afternoon to see if there were any houses for sale, but after hearing the news, Wang Qiqi really didn't go to find a house as she wanted, and the whole person felt that she had no strength, so she simply slept at home for an afternoon, and slept until Han Tao came back and didn't get up.

Han Tao entered the house and unexpectedly found that Wang Qiqi was not sleeping on the sofa, he felt very strange, and when he walked to the bedroom and pushed the door, he found that the air conditioner in the room was on, and Qiqi was lying on the bed, "Qiqi, have you eaten dinner?" ”

Wang Qiqi actually woke up a long time ago, but I just felt very tired and didn't want to get up, I didn't want to eat, I just wanted to sleep. ”

"What if you don't eat it, I'll go get some noodles." Han Tao knows that his wife is tired these days, just look at the thick stack of strategies she makes, especially these are the results of his wife running down on a bicycle, which is more tiring than the last time he accompanied the white pigeon to rent a store, and that time he didn't need his wife to ride all the time to find a house.

Wang Qiqi ate Han Tao's noodles and shared with him the news that the landlord might be going to live in other places, "Do you think they will sell the house?" ”

"Impossible." Han Tao was very sure, "Mark seems to be a shareholder of a company, and he has to come back for meetings every year, plus there are some old friends of his here." ”

"Besides, it's normal for rich people like them to have a lot of property in their hands." Han Tao Zhilu said, Wang Qiqi has always wanted to buy a house in this neighborhood, just to make it convenient for herself to commute to work in the future, "And we can continue to rent a house here, and when we have a car, we will move in the same house." ”

Wang Qiqi thinks about it. I'm really stupid, the rent here is not expensive, you only need to spend your own money when you come to live, and you don't need to spend your own money when it's usually empty, no matter how you look at it, it's quite accounting. "Cheng, then I'll find a house that is not too far away tomorrow and has a good environment." After figuring it out, Wang Qiqi feels that the emerging community is also very good, the newness of the house and the surrounding environment are good, especially there is a small artificial lake in one community, and you can buy a small inflatable bed for rowing in the future. "That's the neighborhood I told you about last time. The environment is good, about fifty minutes by car, and the house has begun to be pre-sold. ”

Wang Qiqi quickly made a choice, "When do you have time, let's go and see the house together." "Now that I've thought about it, let's just make a quick decision, in short, the money is in the stock market, Wang Qiqi is still very worried, even if it will make less money, it is more cost-effective than the loss.

Han Tao calculated in his heart. "I'm going to have two days off this weekend, and then we'll take Dalijun to have a look." Didn't that kid keep clamoring to see his new house, "I expect the nerd to borrow it for a while, and the room will be at least three rooms." "In the future, my mother will come to live and have a place.

"Uh-huh. That's a must. Wang Qiqi actually felt that it was really not enough to get three rooms well, "When the time comes, my mother will come over, my aunt and cousin have said that they will also come over to live for a while to feel the atmosphere here, especially Song Yao." She kept saying that when we settled here, she would also buy a house and send Taotao over. "When the time comes, their husband and wife will nest in the country to make money, and the eight achievements of the children are to let us help take care of one or two.

"Your aunt, they came to take care of them?" Han Tao thought to himself that he would never let Qiqi take care of Taotao. This responsibility is very important, not to say that it is enough to give him food and drink, but to prevent him from learning badly and let him go up every day, can this responsibility be light, Taotao is here, there is no reason why Song Ziwen's daughter can't come.

"My aunt doesn't come to take care of the children, and if she lives close to us, she can have one." In fact, Wang Qiqi was also quite worried at first, but if Wang Damei came over, then don't worry, but Wang Qiqi estimated that if they came over, her leisurely days would be over, and Wang Damei would definitely tell herself this and that.

When Han Tao thought of Wang Damei's arrival, his face also wrinkled, "I hope they won't live too close to us at that time." However, this possibility is not high, Wang Damei and his wife don't understand English, and they are not looking for Wang Qiqi after encountering the most troubled things, and Han Tao can only hope that they will not buy the house next door at that time.

"What I'm worried about now is that if my aunt also comes over, your mother will also come over, and if there is a little contradiction, I will ......" This is what Wang Qiqi is most worried about, Wang Damei's temper is not very good, in case one day she and Luo Hongjuan face each other because of a trivial matter, how should I face it, Wang Qiqi trembled when she remembered that scene.

"Forget it, let's not mention such distant things, we will go to see the house on the weekend and settle the house early." I can't manage so much in the future, and besides, the house is so sought-after, and when Song Yao and the others want to buy a house, there is no house near their house, Wang Qiqi really feels that she has thought too much.

Dai Lijun gasped and followed behind Wang Qiqi, "Qiqi, how long will it take." "Oh my God, why is the location of the house so far away, it took more than half an hour to ride a bicycle, he really regrets that the weather is so good, why don't you sleep at home or chat with your girlfriend, and besides, today this house may not decide to buy it, it's really a mistake.

"It's coming soon." Wang Qiqi turned her head and glanced at classmate Dai Lijun, and shook her head, this guy is still a man, and his physical strength is really not good.

Or right away? Dai Lijun didn't want to complain, "Qiqi, you don't know how many times you've said it." Twenty minutes after Dai Lijun set off, he asked when he would arrive, and Qiqi said it was soon, but now that another twenty minutes have passed, she is still fast, this is too much, you must know that he asked several times in the middle of the road.

"It's really here this time." Wang Qiqi pointed to the residential area that appeared in front of her, "Besides, how far away do you think I can buy a house." ”

When Dai Lijun heard that he was really going to the place, he was completely relieved, "Then let's rest and then go over." Dalijun looked at the empty road, and only occasionally a car passed by, "It's really deserted here." "It's scary." The environment seems to be good, but it's far away. ”

Wang Qiqi listened to Dai Lijun's constant chatter and took a sip of water. Seeing that Dali Jun had already drunk more than half of the water, "You take it easy, we have to go back." "It's a dead man to have no water to drink, especially if you haven't encountered a supermarket along the way.

Dai Lijun was speechless, he really wanted to disobey Wang Qiqi's words, so he drank all the water in his hands, but the problem was that he didn't do it, if there was really no water to drink halfway, what should he do, it would be useless to cry when the time came.

Since you can't drink water. Of course, Dalijun didn't want to rest, "Let's go in and look at the house." "The sooner you get things done, you can go back to blow the air conditioner and eat fruit early, even if there is no fruit to eat, Dalijun feels more comfortable than at this moment.

After entering the community, Dai Lijun found that the environment here is really good, with green trees, "It's very good, the environment is good, and the yard is quite big." "All the way. Dalijun kept nodding, "Ahhhh "Oh my God, this makes Dalijun feel incredible. It's not a big deal, but it's also a lake, so at least you can swim or raft.

"In China, this is definitely a high-end community of high-end communities." Dalijun pointed to the houses on the side. Then he pointed to a few houses with swimming pools by the lake, and then pointed to the artificial lake, "Han Tao." I really recommend you to buy a house with a swimming pool. "Next year, I can take Lu Qiaowei here to swim and barbecue, as soon as he thought of that scene, Dai Lijun was excited and kept persuading.

Of course, Han Tao was tempted by this suggestion, and of course Wang Qiqi thought about it, but the question was, "A house with a swimming pool must be expensive." Although he didn't ask the price, Han Tao subconsciously thought so.

"You give us money." Wang Qiqi thought to herself, I really don't know how expensive rice is, I don't need to spend my own money to say that I want to do this and that, and I don't want to think about how much strength we have, "And the house with the swimming pool is a super large apartment, the kind of five bedrooms, three living rooms, four bathrooms and three bathrooms, especially the master bedroom, there is a cloakroom and a study, how much do you say, and how much furniture you want to buy after you buy it...... "Wang Qiqi thinks that the follow-up expenses are definitely large enough, "and the taxes paid every year are also more, you can calculate ......"

The more Wang Qiqi calculated, the more she felt that from the current situation, a large house was a cost of money for us, "As long as Han Tao and I live, you will live occasionally, which is not suitable for us." ”

Dai Lijun didn't expect that there would be taxes, "Taxes? "Didn't that give it a lump sum when he bought the house, why did he have to pay taxes every year, he really didn't understand.

Yes, after buying a house in China, in addition to paying the property management fee, you only need to pay taxes at the time of the transaction, of course, even this fee is not paid by every household, "foreign land is privately owned, of course, you also have to bear certain obligations, such as paying taxes." ”

"The collection and use of property taxes in the United States belongs to local governments, and the government spends every penny of money on the people, education, and security, and they are certainly willing to pay. And the property tax bill is transparent: how much is used in the kilometer school district, how much is used in the library, how much is used for fire protection... It's all written clearly. The bulk is used in the school district, which can generally account for 70%-80% of the total tax amount, which I think is reasonable, and how to use it compared to domestic taxes, you don't know how to use it at all, of course, this house price is every year the government will help you share the price, according to the valuation multiplied by the tax rate, here it is about a few percent to two percent. Wang Qiqi also learned about the general situation of this property tax before, and to be honest, she was quite satisfied, "In the future, when Han Tao and I have children, I will buy a good house in the school district, which can be regarded as an investment for the child." ”

After listening to Wang Qiqi's description, Dai Lijun thought in his heart, this money still has to be paid, "Listen to what you mean, this tax is more, and the environment of the community is good?" Originally, he still thought that since he had to pay taxes, he would buy a community house with a low tax rate in the future, but now that he understands it, this may not be a bargain, "Foreigners still have a choice of schools?" "No, in his mind, foreigners should not be very fond of this, and it's not domestic, swarming to find a relationship to go to a good school, he always feels that foreigners really don't like their children's homework, and the children here will never let their parents go to school often because of poor grades, and there are not many students who often go to tutoring courses and cram schools.

"Why not." Wang Qiqi glanced at someone, "If you have the strength, you can buy a house near a good school, and if you can't afford it, you can rent a house." Wang Qiqi thinks this is better than in China, if you are in China, you must be registered in the school district, and the owner must be the child's parents, otherwise even if it is grandparents. Wang Qiqi thinks that this thing is that the school wants to collect sponsorship fees to get out, and she didn't see that in the future, for the admission quota of a famous kindergarten, parents should line up a few days in advance for that place.

"Can I go to school if I rent a house?" Dai Lijun didn't expect that foreigners would have such a policy, and that was too ......

"Many foreigners are renting houses, you think you have to buy a house in China, you must know that foreigners have the ability to support their children until they graduate from college, if they don't have the ability, they will wait for the children to reach the age of 16, not to mention the children's marriage fund." Wang Qiqi thought that parents in China have a heavy burden, and they must raise education funds and marriage funds from the birth of their children, if the children study abroad. The cost is even higher, and a marriage house for boys is a lot of pressure, especially the rapid rise in housing prices in later generations, which is a very heavy burden for many Chinese parents.

Dai Lijun's mouth was big when he heard this, "Then I must immigrate here, I don't have to worry about giving birth to ten or eight children in the future, I will attend public schools, tuition fees will be free, and I will not bleed heavily when my children get married in the future......" Dai Lijun thought to himself, we have completely realized the wish of our ancestors, who had many sons and many blessings. Of course, the main thing is that the money that needs to be spent is not very much, and it is not that the population of the United States is small, and if there are many children, the government still has subsidies. If you calculate it this way, you will have a lot of children, and you can still make two dollars if you don't get it.

"Ten or eight?" Han Tao called out, he was very envious of Dai Lijun's idea. However, he felt that it was impossible for Kiki to agree to have so many children, not to mention that when a woman is pregnant, there are many things that cannot be done. "I'll just have four or five births for Kiki."

"Oh my God, you think Vivi is a sow?" Wang Qiqi's mouth couldn't close in surprise when she gave Dai Lijun's words, "I'm going to tell Weiwei when I go back, it takes ten years a year, and you don't want to think about the child being born to take care of this problem......"

Before Wang Qiqi finished complaining about someone going too far, she didn't come up with Han Tao's words, she glared at Han Tao angrily, "You don't know, do you still want to set up a basketball team?" "Ya, co-author someone just sows the seeds, and the rest doesn't matter," who takes care of the child, do you think I won't be tired if I'm a robot? ”

"And are you really ready to just take care of your education and ignore your education?"

"Will your mother not say how irresponsible you are?" Although Wang Qiqi agrees with the education of foreigners for children, the question is whether Luo Hongjuan will be willing to do this, intergenerational proximity is a big problem, when Han Tao is busy with work every day, the most unlucky person is not himself, it is he who rushes to the front, Wang Qiqi is worried that when the time comes, he will be against the two mountains, and there is another mountain is Wang Damei.

"And you Dai Lijun, I will report what you said today to Lu Qiaowei, I will see how you will laugh when the time comes." Wang Qiqi still wanted to educate Han Tao, when she saw Dai Lijun covering her mouth and laughing on the side, she immediately turned her gun and pointed it at the nerd, hmph, if this incident wasn't caused by him, as for making it like this, "It's up to you to do it then." ”

Wang Qiqi's words made Han Tao wake up quickly from the sweet dream of a few radish heads who kept shouting for their father, yes, more children must be cultivated to be promising, if they are born no matter what, the same as Han Jun's kid, Han Tao feels that he is really going to jump the Great Lakes, "Yes, yes, in the matter of children, we must definitely focus on quality and quantity, and children must be productive to be successful, if you give birth to a white-eyed wolf or a loser's child, it is better not to give birth." Han Tao quickly finished standing in line.

Dai Lijun snickered on the side because he felt that they could forget what he said before when they were so noisy, but he knew how much Lu Qiaowei valued her figure, and let her give birth to ten or eight, Dai Lijun knew that she would never agree without asking, but he didn't expect Wang Qiqi to deal with himself quickly, and his good buddies actually stood next to Wang Qiqi, "Ah, Han Tao, don't forget how Qiqi educated you before......" (to be continued......)
