1995 was a spectacular year for the Internet and a year that changed the future.

But this year is no different for ordinary people, in addition to the same life as before, that is, residents of big cities such as Shanghai and Yanjing, many real estate companies have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and many real estate companies have begun to build up in various parts of the city, and you can see construction sites everywhere, and the new housing reform policy has begun to be implemented, and commercial housing has gradually replaced the original welfare housing.

1995 passed, 1996 followed, and soon after the start of the year, the real estate market everywhere became even hotter. It seems that the bursting of the real estate bubble in Qiongdao, which has just passed less than two years, has nothing to do with the rise of the real estate industry in various places, and housing prices have begun to rise under such circumstances, and people's desire to buy houses has gradually become hot from the beginning.

These can be especially felt by Shenghua Real Estate. Take the previous Shenghua real estate built close to Tianlin, when Shenghua Investment was originally opened here, it was still a wasteland, and when the real estate was partially resettled and part of it was sold, the selling price per square meter was only more than 2,000 yuan.

This price was not low at that time, after all, it was outside the Zhongshan Ring Road, according to the old Huhai people's opinion, this place was the former suburb, and people in the urban area would not move here at all except for no way.

But now it's different, in just two or three years, the nearby real estate has been built one after another, and the whole community has gradually begun to improve, and with the extension of several buses to this side, plus the entry of some commercial facilities, this side has slowly begun to gain popularity.

Now the house here has risen from about 2,000 yuan to about 4,000 yuan, which is quite amazing. The residents who moved in because of the resettlement never imagined that their houses would rise to such a level after such a short period of time, which made them both surprised and happy.

In addition, the adjustment of the housing reform policy has also reminded ordinary people that the housing policy that has been implemented for decades has completely ended, and to improve living conditions in the future, it can only be solved by buying houses by themselves through the market.

Yuanmingyuan Road, a very short road, is only 462 meters from south to north, but this road is located in the center of the city, next to the river, and the famous report building is at the intersection.

Not far from the Baohui Building, that is, diagonally opposite, there is a building, which is one of the earliest real estate trading markets in Shanghai, and it is also the largest and most popular.

Next year, this side will be officially listed as the district real estate trading center, and now settled in the city's large and small real estate companies, many companies have rented offices here, the office is semi-open, the door and office are plastered with housing information from all over Shanghai, attracting residents who are interested in buying commercial housing to find a suitable house here and negotiate.

The headquarters of Shenghua Real Estate has moved to Shenghua Building, and with the completion and use of Shenghua Building, not only Shenghua Real Estate, but also some companies under Shenghua Group have moved to the past. In addition, the occupancy rate of the building is good, after all, this building is the highest and most advanced business building in Jiangdong, in the current situation of not many commercial buildings in Shanghai, some large companies, especially multinational and foreign-funded companies choose the location of the office is the first choice is Shenghua Building.

Li Daqi's current work is mainly responsible for Shenghua communications, computers, home appliances, etc., Shenghua's internal division of labor is clear, Li Daqi has been responsible for these businesses for many years, with Shenghua's several adjustments, the company's internal structure also tends to be perfect, he always grasps these masters.

Due to work, Li Daqi often lives in Pengcheng, but Huhai often comes back to live for a few days as his hometown.

Before, when Li Daqi came back, he often lived in his former home, that is, the first Li family's bungalow. After this bungalow returned to the hands of the Li family, it was carefully repaired, but later Li Daqi and his parents went to Pengcheng for work reasons, and with the development of Pengcheng, they simply resettled in Pengcheng.

After Li Xiaoyun graduated from university and worked, this side was directly handed over to Li Xiaoyun, and then Li Xiaoyun and Luo Yang got married, Luo Yang did not buy a house in Huhai at that time, the Li family discussed, and gave this house to Li Xiaoyun and Luo Yang as their newlywed blessings, Li Xiaoyun and his wife could only accept the resignation, but still left a room for their parents and brother Li Daqi, so Li Daqi sometimes returned to Huhai and lived here for a few days.

However, Li Daqi didn't live for too long, after all, his sister and Luo Yang were already married, and they soon had children, although he was Li Xiaoyun's brother, it was not so convenient to live in his sister's house all the time, not to mention that his sister and brother-in-law had to live a married life.

So it didn't take long for Li Daqi to ask someone to buy a new house, the place is close to the symphony orchestra on Gurdian Road, not far from the original home, and the environment is very quiet, although the house is not as big and good as Song Dynasty's aid, after all, the house of Song Yuanchao is available but not sought, but Li Daqi's house is also quite good in Shanghai.

In fact, not only Li Daqi, but also under the influence of the Song Yuan Dynasty, whether it is Qin Zhengguo or Gu Jie over the years, including Luo Yang, Luo Lin, Sun Yaoliang, Xiao Qiao, Da Bing, Junzi, and even Chen Xiaoer, Wang Shuo, Ma Dudu and others who met later, have all purchased real estate in Yanjing, Huhai and other places.

And the real estate they purchased is not the same as ordinary commercial housing, Yanjing buys all courtyard houses, Huhai is an old house, more or less at least two or three sets per person, Song Dynasty aid naturally has the most, except for Yanjing when he was in college to start the two sets of courtyard houses (including the other courtyard where Lin Daoyuan and his wife live now), over the years, Song Dynasty aid has won several sets of good courtyard houses one after another.

In Huhai, Song Chaoyuan won more old houses, there are as many as six sets, in addition, after the completion of the previous alley renovation project, Song Chaoyuan directly paid for several houses in the alley, these houses are currently vacant, but they have long been renovated, and there are special people to clean and maintain.

This is not counting the houses purchased in Xiangjiang, Jinling and other places, sometimes Qin Zhengguo jokingly said to Song Yuanchao why there are so many houses, his family changes places to live in so many houses a day, even if he lives for more than half a month, he can't change them!

But having said that, Qin Zhengguo has not bought less, he has been in Xiangjiang for so many years, plus Shenghua already has a real estate business, as long as his brain does not enter the water, he can see the future value of these houses, not to mention that the houses they bought are not ordinary commercial houses, they are some old buildings with historical heritage, these houses can be said to be unique, and there will be fewer and fewer in the future.

Today, Li Daqi happened to come to the Yuanmingyuan Road Market.

Shenghua Real Estate has a largest office on the second floor of the market, the office is divided into two areas, a semi-open area is used for reception and business, and the inner area is the internal office.

Picking out the two most satisfactory copies from this stack of materials, Li Daqi said: "Just these two places, you contact the other party, arrange a time, and I will notify someone to go over and have a look." ”

"Okay Li Dong, your vision is really good, these two rooms are the best rooms in hand at present, the geographical location is quite good, and the surrounding environment is also first-class." The manager gave a thumbs up and patted Li Daqi's ass, and at the same time said that Li Daqi didn't have to come in person for such a trivial matter, and he could take the information to Li Daqi to report.

"It's okay, it's okay to go out for a walk, not to mention that it's not a company's business, it's a private matter." Li Daqi waved his hand and said such a sentence, this is not a kind word, this time the purchase is not Li Daqi wants to buy, it is a friend who intends to buy a house, so Li Daqi directly asked Shenghua Real Estate to help him find a suitable house, and he happened to be free today, so he stopped by to see the information.

After explaining a few words, Li Daqi saw that the time was almost up, and stood up.

The manager sent Li Daqi out diligently, if it wasn't for Li Daqi's insistence on waving his hand and saying that he didn't need to send it anymore, maybe the manager would have planned to send Li Daqi directly to the car. But even so, the manager still insisted on sending Li Daqi downstairs, until Li Daqi asked him to go back, and then he was reluctant to say goodbye.

After the manager left, Li Daqi took out his sunglasses from his pocket and walked out of the door.

Standing on the side of the road outside the gate, Li Daqi waited for his car, just now the driver saw Li Daqi come down and trotted to the parking lot to pick up the car, because it is not easy to park here, Li Daqi's car parked in the parking lot of the report building diagonally opposite, the driver needs some time to come and go, but Li Daqi is not in a hurry, standing at the door while taking out a cigarette and lighting a cigarette, waiting patiently.

Just smoked two puffs of cigarettes, Li Daqi's eyes suddenly saw a figure walking across the road, he didn't care at first, but when his eyes passed unintentionally, Li Daqi came back to his senses and quickly moved his gaze back.

At first, Li Daqi thought he was wrong, but when he raised his hand to take off his sunglasses and looked carefully, he found that he was not mistaken, this figure was indeed an old acquaintance of his own, and an "old friend" who was very familiar.

"Why is he here? When did you come back? Li Daqi had some doubts in his heart, but after thinking about it carefully, more than ten years have passed, and he hasn't inquired about some of the past over the years, he originally thought that he would see each other again in this life, but suddenly seeing the other party still surprised Li Daqi.

Compared with his memory, the other party is much older now, if it weren't for the fact that he was an acquaintance, Li Daqi wouldn't have recognized it.

Li Daqi and Song Yuanchao are the same age, they are 41 years old this year, and the other party is also this age. But compared with Li Daqi and Song Chaoyuan, the 41-year-old other party looks even older than half a hundred years old, with gray hair, a slightly hunched back, wearing a blue cloth dress that is incompatible with the people around him, carrying a canvas bag, and slowly walking not far away.
