After breakfast, Gu Qi drove a carload full of people back to the city.

On the way, everyone was happy one by one, smiling and radiant.

Ma Dali and Xiaohuzi sat at the end, as if they were folding the plane and playing.

Gu Yi smirked, and discussed with Chen Xingling that he would take the opportunity to buy a small house to live in.

"Sister-in-law, I've thought about it, since they are already employed here, they will have to buy a house here sooner or later. The factory will be divided into rooms in the future, I know that. According to my current seniority and technical title, I don't know what year and month I can get a house. ”

It's really a village with no way out, and another village!

I thought that I had to tighten my belt and borrow money from my eldest brother and sister-in-law to live recently, and I would not be able to lose my wealth until I received my salary.

Who knew that suddenly a huge amount of money fell from the sky!

Thank goodness - no, it's the sister-in-law who really deserves to be thanked!

"That's it." Chen Xingling nodded in agreement: "Renting a house for a long time is not a solution. Although the place is small, less than ten yuan a month, it is a lot of money in a year. ”

Zhao Xiaoxing smiled bitterly: "I ...... We have earned so many months, and we usually eat and drink at my sister-in-law's brother-in-law's side, and we save a lot of money, but at the end of the year, we have saved so many dozens of yuan, and in the end there is nothing left. ”

Gu Yi didn't care about it for a long time, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay!" I worked with my sister-in-law for one day, which was enough for me to earn for a year! With these 400 yuan, our house is right in front of us! ”

Zhao Xiaoxing couldn't help but remind: "For daily expenses or something, you always need money." ”

If you can save everything you earn, you don't have to spend a penny, so why can't you save money all the time. The key is that the money has not been enough to spend, and life will be tight.

Gu Yi said briskly: "Fifty yuan to meet daily expenses, and the rest must be saved to buy a house." ”

"Uh-huh." Zhao Xiaoxing wished she could have her own nest: "Save it first." ”

"Where to buy a house?" Gu Qi calmly walked around the steering wheel and asked, "Have you ever thought about it?" ”

Gu Yi didn't think about it, and blurted out: "It must be close to you, close to the factory!" ”

The eldest brother and sister-in-law have always taken good care of them, and it would not be too good if they could live next door to them! It's a pity that the next door to the three gardens has long been occupied, and he has no share!

If you don't have one next door, then go for the next door next door - the closer the better!

Chen Xingling couldn't help but ask: "Want to buy an existing house?" Or do you want to buy it and build it yourself? ”

“…… Of course, it's better to build it yourself. Gu Yi hesitated: "However, the price must be expensive, right?" It costs money to buy land, and it costs money to build a house. ”

"Don't worry." Chen Xingling said briskly: "You can buy land first, and then simply build it." If the mantissa is not enough, we will help you put it on first. Wait until you have received your wages and have enough money to pay it back. ”

Gu Yi and Zhao Xiaoxing listened, and their hearts were so happy!

They are all outsiders in Yucheng, working here, and their relatives are also here, and most of them can only take root here in the future.

Whether you can feel safe and feel a sense of belonging is whether you can have your own independent house in this semi-unfamiliar city.

Gu Qi suggested: "The nearby houses are all old-fashioned, the space is not used reasonably, and the inside is very crowded. If you can, try to buy land and build it yourself. ”

“…… Hard, right? Gu Yi explained with a wry smile: "A colleague of mine is also a native of Yucheng, and he said that he has been waiting for the collective land sale for several years, and he has never been able to wait for good news. ”

Chen Xingling thought for a while and reminded: "Pay more attention." Someone buys, naturally someone sells. If there is no suitable land, we can buy an old house nearby and tear it down and rebuild it. In that case, it may be expensive, but not much. ”

The old houses in Yucheng are not expensive, the ones on the side of the road are more expensive, and the others are basically the price of 100 yuan and dozens of yuan.

If you buy two small ones and tear them down and rebuild them into a large one, more than 300 yuan should be able to do it.

"There is less land alone." Gu Qi explained: "Because there is a shipyard in the north of the city, the houses nearby are not cheap. In the past, it was possible to buy old houses, but later houses were all collective houses, and individuals could not buy and sell them freely on their own. Your sister-in-law's suggestion is pretty good. ”

Gu Yi hurriedly said: "Then let's listen to my sister-in-law!" ”

"Yes, yes." Zhao Xiaoxing said with a smile: "Whatever my sister-in-law says, we will listen." There are also some old houses near our small rental house, so let's go and inquire about it when we go back. ”

Chen Xingling nodded and reminded: "You don't need to buy more, two rooms are enough." If there are two spacious rooms, I can ask Master Mo to help you design a better space, similar to the design of a small building, with windows in the front and back, plenty of space, good lighting, one floor downstairs, one floor upstairs. ”

"Sounds good!" Gu Yi said: "Okay, then let's go back and ask nearby." ”

Chen Xingling smiled dumbly: "Then don't be in such a hurry." For the Chinese New Year, even if someone wants to sell the house, they will not sell it at this point in time. ”

Gu Qi has always done things in an orderly manner, and persuaded: "Buying a house and building a house is a big deal, don't be anxious, you can look for it slowly, shop around, and make sure it's really suitable to buy it again." Take everything slowly, don't be in a hurry or impulsive. ”

"Good!" Gu Yi responded: "We know." ”

Chen Xingling reminded again: "This time, we must collect the money well, and we can't put it indiscriminately." ”

"Sister-in-law, don't worry." Gu Yi explained: "We must hide well this time." And there is no need to be afraid of mice, and the family has started to have cats. ”

"That's good."

……

Originally, Chen Xingling and Ma Dali arranged for the third year of junior high school to go to school to pay New Year's greetings to Teacher Lin Ming, but it seemed that they couldn't go in the morning, so they agreed to go together after the lunch break.

Ma Dali didn't go home for two days, worried that his younger siblings at home were worried about him, so he hurriedly said goodbye to the seafood sent by Chen Xingling's parents.

"Hey! I've got to learn how to ride a bike when I go back! Chen Xingling reminded: "Two feet can't be faster than two wheels!" ”

Ma Dali smiled and said: "You don't have to pay for your feet, you have to pay for two wheels!" ”

Chen Xingling gave him a roll of the eyes: "Sooner or later, you will find that efficiency is more important, and time is your most valuable thing!" ”

"That's great! I'm sure I'm rich that way! Ma Dali turned back as he ran: "I'll borrow your bicycle tomorrow!" I'll be back around two o'clock in the afternoon! ”

Chen Xingling nodded and went into the house.

There was no spark in the kitchen, so she found matches and newspapers to light a fire and began to boil water.

Gu Qi and Xiaohuzi were not idle, the house was not cleaned for three days, there were fallen leaves everywhere and some small garbage swept by the north wind, and the father and son began to clean up the yard when they entered the door.

Xiaohuzi picked up leaves and stuffed them into a small bamboo basket.

"Dad, grandma and Aunt Xuan will come to dinner tonight, right? I told Aunt Xuan that we would be back today. ”

"I don't know." Gu Qi said lightly: "Come on." ”

Xiaohuzi seemed to think of something and asked, "Dad, what is luck?" ”

Gu Qi thought about it and felt that explaining this concept might be a bit too abstract, so he simply gave two examples.

Xiaohuzi has always been smart, and he immediately understood.

Gu Qi's eyes moved slightly, and he asked, "Why did you suddenly remember to ask this word?" Who told you about it? ”

"Uh-oh." Xiaohuzi explained: "On the afternoon of Chinese New Year's Eve, I told my grandmother that I was going to the bathroom to poop. Grandma was very disgusted to tell me not to tell her this kind of thing in the future, otherwise it would affect her luck. ”

Gu Qijun's face sank slightly, he didn't ask any more questions, and continued to clean up.

It seems that most of the old mothers are going to play mahjong again.

Recently, he went back to the first floor of Linjiang twice, but the old mother was not there both times, only Gu Xuan was reading books in the room and doing questions.

At noon on the first day of junior high school, it was supposed to be meal time, but my sister was the only one at home.

Isn't the old mother a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water? Last time, you lost so badly, and you dare to continue to gamble?

If it was just playing mahjong purely and as entertainment, then he wouldn't stop her.

After all, she has nothing to do now, and she can talk to some elderly people and play mahjong, and she doesn't have to stay at home in a daze.

But if it's gambling...... Then he will not show mercy this time!
