On a per capita level, the medical and educational resources enjoyed by the naturalized residents in the Shengli Port area were much higher than those of the Ming Dynasty and other empires of the same era, and the economic cost of the naturalized people enjoying these benefits was very low, even almost free, which also reduced the cost of living of the local naturalized people in disguise, so that they could use their salary income for other aspects to improve their living standards. Since the beginning of the year, hundreds of housing units have been completed, which were designed and constructed by the Ministry of Construction. This includes the in-house sale of the apartment to the Crossing Public, and most of the hundreds of Crossing Residents who stayed in Victory Harbor have moved from the prefabricated house to the new apartment in batches after several lottery activities. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the members' welfare rooms are all uniformly decorated 'fine', and the indoor furniture and sanitary ware are all customized in large quantities. Hot water and electricity are supplied to the building, and the interior lighting is all installed with LD lamps purchased before the crossing, which can be used for a long time in the future when the company is able to produce its own incandescent lamps.

Although the internal space of these apartments is limited, each household is only more than 20 square meters of usable area, and hot water and electricity are supplied for a limited time every day, but they can make members feel the familiar feeling of living in a cement box before they have passed, and the 'privacy' of each household is far better than that of the previous collective dormitory where multiple people 'mixed'. Although there is still a gap from the local tyrant environment of the deep house compound that everyone expected, it has been greatly improved compared with the prefabricated house where we lived for a year before. Besides, even the high-ranking executive committee members live in such dormitories, and the members really have nothing to complain about.

As a former real estate developer, the current leader of the Executive Committee and the head of the Ministry of Construction, Tao Donglai knows that meeting the people's rigid demand for housing will help maintain social and economic stability, so he attaches no less importance to real estate projects than military construction. In addition to the welfare housing built to improve the living environment of the members, Tao Donglai naturally did not miss the opportunity to sell real estate projects to ordinary people.

The Executive Committee has implemented a strict system of collective ownership of land in the areas under its rule, so it is unlikely that the local naturalized people will complete the purchase of land and build houses on their own, and their existing housing belongs to the Executive Committee and its subordinate units, and the people themselves do not own their property rights. Against this backdrop, the only way for naturalized citizens to acquire a property in the area is to buy an officially launched commercial property.

In July, the Ministry of Construction launched two 80-unit housing units to local naturalized residents on a trial basis, which immediately attracted a rush to buy. This kind of housing for naturalized residents looks almost indistinguishable from the welfare housing of the people, and it is also a two-story building, each with 40 units, and a masonry and cement structure. However, its interior is only a simplified version of the welfare house, there is no supply of hot water, electricity, etc., there is no independent bathroom space, there is no flat floor tiles, and there is no whitewashed wall, which is basically the appearance of the 'rough' blank house in later generations.

But these are not a big problem for naturalized people, there is no hot water, but everyone has long been accustomed to the collective bathhouse, and it is free, and there is nothing wrong with it. If there is no toilet, a toilet in the house will solve the problem, and as for the high-end goods such as the 'pumping' toilet, ordinary naturalized people will definitely not be able to use it. At present, the lighting equipment of the naturalized people is still mainly kerosene lamps, and the lamps with glass covers can be used in good conditions, and individual naturalized cadres even have calcium carbide lamps that have just begun to be produced by the Ministry of Industry and are still in the state of internal trial.

Calcium carbide lamps are not high-tech things, simply put, calcium carbide reacts with water to form flammable acetylene gas, which relies on acetylene combustion to emit light. This kind of lamp was widely used in the twentieth century when the power resources were not developed, and the lamps hanging on the rickshaws in the old days were calcium carbide lamps. Even in the 21st century, because of its combustion principle, the change in the color of the flame will provide a warning of hypoxia, and it is still used as a necessity for miners' lamps and 'burrowers'. Its luminous principle is very simple, and the process of making pig iron calcium carbide lamp is not complicated, and at present, calcium carbide can be prepared in the coking process, and the raw materials are also sufficiently guaranteed. This thing has basically no disadvantages except for a little peculiar smell when burning, but as long as the indoor ventilation conditions are good, this is not a big problem, and the brightness of its lighting completely exceeds that of oil lamps and candles, and the Ministry of Industry intends to mass produce this as a new product in the civilian direction, and export it as a fist product.

Regardless of these differences in objective conditions, the mere fact that they can live in the same house as the Haihan chiefs is enough to make the naturalized people 'excited'. Those who can afford to have the economic conditions to apply for safe housing are basically the cadres among the naturalized people, and this class, as the vested interests of the development and growth of the Haihan, has almost become a diehard member of the Haihan culture after a long period of consciousness indoctrination and brainwashing, and regards the Haihan chiefs as omnipotent beings, and intentionally or unintentionally imitates the living habits of the bosses.

Cutting hair and learning some propaganda slogans are all very superficial things, and even the identity of no cadre can be imitated, which is not enough to reflect the difference 'sex' and superiority. And this kind of residence, which is exactly the same as that of the bosses, is not available to everyone, which is a symbol of status and class within the system. Living in this kind of place is completely different from living in a boat-shaped house with a bamboo and wood structure, and judging from the social differentiation that is not yet obvious in Sanya, it can be said that this Anju house is the most intuitive and effective symbol of social status.

Of course, this kind of house is not without its shortcomings, from the perspective of traditional Chinese, it is necessary to have a courtyard to look like a home, and the living space of this Anju house is too small, if it is two generations, the living is a little crowded, and it is necessary to consider the division of households. But the problem now is not the size of the house, but the fact that there is no option to build your own house in the area under Haihan.

Although foreign merchants can enclose land to build houses, the land still belongs to the executive committee, and it is only used in the form of rental. However, the Anju houses sold by the Ministry of Construction are property rights that outsiders dream of but cannot obtain, which can be transferred and inherited, and they are real family properties, with real estate certificates signed and sealed by the Executive Committee, which is a very authoritative endorsement for ordinary people.

The Ministry of Construction has another 'threshold' that cannot be ignored when selling this batch of housing units, that is, there are clear restrictions on the identity of the applicant for real estate, and the personnel who must have obtained naturalized citizenship for more than one year and have a labor level of no less than three levels can be eligible to apply for the housing this time. This is basically an explanation of the status of affordable housing from an official point of view - the people who are eligible to apply for it are basically considered to be the upper class of the local naturalized society, which is enough to make ordinary people feel 'envious'.

Of course, if you want to get this fixed asset, not everyone can afford the economic costs. Or, to be more precise, given the income level of naturalized people, the vast majority of people are unable to pay the officially priced housing price in one go.

The Ministry of Construction's price for the housing is 200 yuan per household, if this price is used as an analogy, in fact, it has far exceeded the price level of real estate in Yacheng, and the yard that the Yacheng Office bought at the beginning only 'spent' 260 taels of silver, which is more than 500 square meters, the courtyard of seven main houses, but this money can not even buy two houses in Shengli Port, and the gap is very large. Of course, even naturalized citizens with such financial resources would never exchange the negotiable coupons they had in hand for silver to buy a house in Yacheng -- even if they could buy a larger house there, it would be almost impossible to find a job with the income level here in Shengli Harbor, let alone an official position that was not a Ming system such as a "cadre."

Even high-level naturalized cadres like Yu Dashan and Zhang Tiangui have an average monthly income of only between 10 and 15 yuan.

However, Zhang Tiangui finally defeated his old rival Yu Dashan in this competition, becoming the first person among the local naturalized people to successfully apply for the purchase, and bought two houses at one time. This is also due to the fact that there are enough people in his family, and his five sons plus his own total of six laborers, the monthly income is still quite considerable.

Yu Dashan, like other applicants, chose the low-interest housing loan provided by "Haihan Bank". Since these people don't have any actual assets to pledge, the final collateral is a bit of a special 'nature' - their personal labor grade points. If they fail to repay the loan on time and in quantity, their personal labor points will be deducted in proportion to the corresponding amount, and the labor level may be reduced due to insufficient points, and in extreme cases, the "Haihan Bank" will even come forward to take back the housing in the opposite situation.

Of course, Yu Dashan and others dared to boldly choose to take out a loan to buy a house, mainly thanks to the credit of "Haihan Bank" and the low interest rate announced by it. In the eyes of naturalized people of this class like Yu Dashan, the annual interest rate of 10% on loans is already a good one, and you must know that the monthly interest rate when they borrowed money from some wealthy people in the past has far exceeded the annual interest rate of the "Haihan Bank". Based on the income of fourth-level laborers and naturalized cadres, it is not difficult to pay off a small loan in a year or two, as long as they save a little money on ordinary times, so the buyers are not stressed when signing the loan contract.

According to the statistics of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, there were more than 30 fourth-level laborers, more than 270 third-level laborers, and more than 300 people who were qualified to apply for the naturalized people. The vast majority of these people have gone through the purchase procedures, so the first batch of 80 suites withdrawn by the Ministry of Construction were ordered out without any suspense, and after the fourth-level workers completed the selection of houses, for the sake of fairness, they even had to hold a lottery ceremony for many third-level laborers, so as to determine the lucky ones who are eligible to settle in the housing.

This "wave" of buying houses has even attracted the attention of the outside world. Wei Ping and Luo Shengdong, two well-informed people, approached Tao Dong several times to try to get the Executive Committee to open the threshold of the house sellers, so that they could also have the opportunity to participate in the purchase of real estate.

Since these two guys became the spokesperson of Haihan, their income has been rising, and they have some money on hand. The two of them have long been counting on being able to buy a house in Shengli Harbor, but the land policy here makes them feel that renting land to build a house is really unreliable, and people can build commercial facilities and rely on income to make money, but if they are building a residential courtyard, and this land is not their own, it is too cost-effective. Now that the housing policy came out, the two immediately smelled the commercial smell and went to the 'door' on their own. In the eyes of the naturalized people, 200 yuan per household may not be a small amount, and it is even necessary to borrow money to complete it, but in the eyes of Luo Shengdong and Wei Ping, two people who rely on speculation to become a large amount of money, if the executive committee is willing to sell, they even thought that the two of them would raise funds to buy ten or eight sets in one go, and then slowly increase the price and resell them -- of course, this is completely impossible to achieve, even the naturalized people have strict purchase restrictions based on the number of people in the family, and a high surtax must be levied on the resale of real estate.

For the development of commercial real estate, Tao Donglai has long had a comprehensive consideration, and the housing launched for naturalized people will not be sold to outsiders, so even if these two people wear out their mouths, Tao Donglai has no intention of relenting.

However, Tao Donglai pointed out another clear path for them -- in the Sanya New Town urban area centered on Sanya Xingang, the Ministry of Construction and "Qiong Lianfa" will jointly launch a special 'door' for high-end real estate to be sold to non-naturalized people. If they want to buy a property in Sanya, then the best thing is to buy this local property.

At the beginning of its establishment, Schneider had already revealed to shareholders how the real estate project operated. However, due to the limited scale of the construction team under the Ministry of Construction, it has been busy with the construction of internal welfare housing and housing projects, so the project of "Qiong Lianfa" has been shelved. It was not until after the summer that the Ministry of Construction finally came up with a development plan and submitted it to the Executive Committee for approval.

Shareholders are not in a hurry to make money for this project, at present, "Qiong Lianfa" has been in progress or ready to carry out more than 10 projects, the fastest before the end of the year to see the income, relatively speaking, the income is not fast real estate is not many people are optimistic, and even many shareholders are still doubting the profitability of the project. However, with the overall development of the Sanya area, the shareholders also realized that the development of this area has a bright future, and gradually began to have the willingness to buy property locally.

The solution proposed by the Executive Committee is for the Ministry of Construction and Qiong Lianfa to jointly develop the real estate project, so that shareholders and wealthy businessmen can acquire land ownership in the form of real estate - you can't buy land alone, but you can buy commercial real estate on land to get ownership of land, which is also a policy change. Of course, the Executive Committee and the Ministry of Construction will make clear the 'nature' of the use of the land in the purchase contract, and the ownership of the land cannot be transferred at will, and the buyer does not have to expect to be able to use this alternative method to buy dozens of acres of land and then develop it on his own.

At the beginning of August, during the period when the militia crossed the sea to attack Hoi An, South Vietnam, the Ministry of Construction launched the first commercial real estate for foreigners, "Sanya 'Flower' Garden", on the banks of the Lin' Xuan River in Sanya New Town. The main body of this real estate project is divided into two parts: villas and 'flower' garden houses, and buyers can obtain property rights approved by the Haihan Executive Committee, including the ownership of the corresponding land.

The 'flower' garden house is a three-storey building, with four households on each floor, and a total of 12 households in each building. In addition to the lack of electricity, other hot water, bathrooms, interior decoration are all available, and equipped with locally produced glass windows, its living conditions are almost the same as the welfare housing of the Guanzhong, and the unit size is several times larger. Of course, the corresponding price is not cheap, the price of each unit starts from 1,500 taels, and there are still differences according to the different floors and orientations. The main sales targets of this kind of house are Luo Shengdong, Wei Ping and some foreign merchants who live in Sanya, to meet their desire to 'spend' a lot of money to buy a property here. If this price had been placed two years ago, it would have been enough to scare Luo Shengdong and Wei Ping and others away, because even Yacheng did not have properties that reached this price, not to mention that it was just a building without an independent courtyard. Even if it is placed in Guangzhou, this money is enough to buy a small courtyard in good condition. If someone had sold such a nondescript property at such a price, everyone would have thought he was crazy. But now it is different from the past, and now it is possible to buy a property at such a price on the territory of the Haihan people, although the price is a little expensive, but there are still quite a few people who express their intention to buy. Maritime merchants buy a shipload of Haihan goods in Shengli Port, bring them back to the mainland and sell them, and the profit they get is enough to buy a property here. Luo Shengdong is currently the largest salt seller in Qiongzhou Island, and 1,500 taels of silver is not a big amount for him. If it weren't for the desperate opposition of the old man in Yacheng, he would even have the idea of 'spending' a lot of money to buy a villa here directly.
