Chapter 412: Buying a House for Your Parents
"Look how I feel when I put it on...... Shape? ”
When Chang Jiayao couldn't wait to come out of the bedroom while tying the belt around her waist, and wanted to show off her figure to her family, she saw such a strange scene of three people staring at each other.
This made her a little confused for a while, so she had to hold the second half of the question back into her stomach first.
"Dude?"
"Dad?"
"Mom?"
She tentatively called out to each of them.
"Ahem......"
In the end, Chang Haonan was the first to react and said what he had always thought:
"Now the conditions of this building are still a little worse after all, there is not even a separate kitchen and toilet, my mother has been cooking on the balcony with a small gas stove, and the hygiene and safety aspects are almost ......."
In fact, if you really want to say how bad the conditions in this place are now, it is not so bad, after all, in the previous life, the family has been living in such a building until the new century.
At the end of the 90s, the tube building was far from the level of urban legends that followed.
After all, it is a family home, and they basically live in the same unit, and the neighbors are very familiar.
It was not until about 2003 that the employees of the original unit moved into the new residential area in large areas, so they rented out to many idle people in society at a low price, and even premeditated lawbreakers, resulting in the original tube building area gradually forming a shantytown or slum nature of the lot, and the public security situation plummeted.
After a few years, this situation gradually disappeared with the subsequent demolition and resettlement.
So now, when Chang Haonan first proposed to change to a new house, whether from a rational or emotional point of view, the first reaction of Chang Yuanchao and Zhou Li was that it was unnecessary.
"Haven't you all come over like this for so many years, and besides, Jia Yao has also gone out to school in two months, and your mother and I probably won't be able to cook a few times a week."
Chang Yuanchao gently touched his sideburns, which were already a little white, and replied:
"Now this place is a little old, but the neighbors are familiar with each other, and we may not be used to it when we suddenly change to a new place to live."
"Yes, yes, your father and I will retire after working for more than ten years, and then we may move to the place where Ling or Jiayao works to help you take care of the children, how can you buy a new house in our local area......"
Zhou Lizhu also nodded beside him and said:
"You eat the noodles first, it's time to eat later."
Chang Haonan picked up a chopstick noodle and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
For my parents' generation, it is indeed difficult to imagine what earth-shaking changes will occur in China in the next ten years.
Not to mention that more than ten years later, in another five or six years, the residents in this building will basically move away.
Neighborhood relationships are indeed important, but in a county with a total population of less than a small district in the capital, there is no sense of distance wherever you move.
"We're just moving, and we won't move too far, and it's not like we won't live in the local area in the future, these old neighbors can continue to contact."
He put a few pickles into a bowl, ate them in one bite, and then went on to persuade:
"I just asked briefly on the way from the airport, and there is a new community that has just been built two or three kilometers away, and the transportation is also very convenient, and it is closer to the two of you's units."
"Besides, even if Jia Yao and I go to school, we always have to go home during the New Year's holidays, it's really a bit unbearable to live like now, and it's not a way to always put a bed in the living room, right?"
Apparently the DPRK is beginning to waver.
Obviously, the effect of the second paragraph is still relatively obvious.
As a parent, there is generally no problem with it, but it will pay more attention to the child's problem.
"Hmmm......"
But Zhou Li was still a little hesitant:
"That's a lot of money, Xiaonan, you're already 22 years old this year, if you get married in the next few years, why don't you have to buy a new house, it's still in the capital, even if you have a little money in your hand now, you still keep it......"
She does think long-term.
The problem is, it's too long-term.
In her previous life, she saved money for Chang Haonan to marry her daughter-in-law, and she saved it until she retired, and it was useless......
In this life, although Chang Haonan does not dare to guarantee that he will still reproduce the emotional experience of the previous life, he is now considered to have a small status, and there should be no need for his parents to bother about this aspect.
"You don't have to worry about things over there in the capital, we ...... Well, the research institute where I interned has already given me an apartment as a dormitory, and it will be officially allocated to me after I graduate, and we will also have state subsidies and project allowances for our doctoral studies later, so there will definitely be no ......shortage of money in this regard."
Chang Haonan's brain was spinning rapidly, and he set up a name for his income.
Now his biggest source of recurring income is undoubtedly his salary from the Torch Company.
The rest is the subsidies and bonuses in some projects.
Mostly transverse.
For example, turbofan 10 and the No. 10 project are such big jobs, the restrictions on the use of funds are often quite strict, and the larger the scale of the project, the more people will participate in it, and the personnel subsidy is such a thing, it must be a share, even if there is a hierarchical distribution system, the gap will not be too obvious, so in the end, it can only be regarded as a drizzle in the hands of Chang Haonan.
But Chang Haonan is not ready to tell his family about the torch company for the time being.
At least I'm not going to tell Chang Yuanchao and Zhou Li.
Judging from the experience of the previous life, these two people are not characters who can hide things in their hearts, and although they will not deliberately publicize it after knowing it, they are afraid that it will be difficult to keep their mouth for a long time.
On the contrary, it is Chang Jiayao, although she looks very careless now, but she is actually quite thoughtful.
And in the past few years, it has just caught up with the big layoffs, if you really let the people around you know about it, then think about how many relatives, friends and colleagues will come to the relationship to arrange work.
Chang Haonan's plan for the torch company was originally a small but refined core technology enterprise, so it was naturally impossible to take the lead in stuffing some idle people into it.
But it is easy for him to refuse here, but it is difficult for Chang Yuanchao and Zhou Li to refuse.
If you don't do it, it will collapse the social circle of the two.
So it's better to contain the problem at the source.
"How much subsidy can I ...... for studying?"
Chang Yuanchao was a little unimpressed at first, but then he suddenly reflected:
"No, you said you wanted to buy a house in our county, and you ...... it now. How much money do you have? ”
Chang Haonan hesitated for a moment and gestured out three fingers.
"Three thousand...... Then the money we've saved over the years might be about the same......"
Lao Chang obviously hasn't realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Dad, if I only have 3,000 yuan, how can I talk to you about buying a house......
Chang Haonan's head was full of black lines, interrupting the progress of Chang Yuanchao's accounting.
He didn't dare to say that the handmade dress of Shu brocade on Chang Jiayao's body now, if it was on the market, it would probably be more than half of this number.
"Three...... Thirty thousand? ”
After a second of silence, Zhou Li asked tentatively in a somewhat trembling voice.
In 97 years, if it is in a first-tier city, the housing prices in good areas have ranged from thousands to tens of thousands, and 30,000 yuan is not a small amount in Beijing, Shanghai or Pengcheng, although it is not a small amount, but it is definitely not a huge amount of money.
However, in an inconspicuous small county town in Northeast China, the house price in the center is about 300 yuan per square meter, even if it is the largest unit, a room is more than 30,000 yuan.
The lot or area is slightly downgraded, and it is not impossible to buy a house for more than 10,000 yuan.
This is not the overwhelming mobile network and self-media that tell you what the life of the rich in the big city is like.
For couples who have lived in the local area all their lives, this county seat, at most plus Liucheng City, is basically their whole world.
The income of Chang Yuanchao and Zhou Li is not low in the local area, and the total amount of a month is a few hundred, and 30,000 yuan is not enough to break through the upper limit of imagination.
But they were pretty sure that just a year ago, their son would still have to take care of their living expenses.
In other words, the money was saved by Chang Haonan in less than a year.
It's kind of scary.
"Uh...... Right. ”
Looking at his mother's reaction, Chang Haonan didn't dare to say that he actually had almost 300,000 things in his hands.
Chang Jiayao next to him saw some clues from Chang Haonan's expression.
And she can also feel that the clothes on her body are definitely worth a lot.
Not to mention anything else, even if there is no way to tailor the dress, but only ask about the basic dimensions such as height and measurements over the phone, this dress still fits the figure almost perfectly.
She even felt that after having this outfit, it would be a sin for her to be a little fatter.
In short, judging comprehensively, I am afraid that the meaning of these three fingers is more than 30,000.
"Mom, since my brother is not short of money, let him buy it, didn't you also say that the heating pipe of this old house is aging this winter, and the effect is getting worse and worse, how can it be better to move to a new house."
So she said to be by Zhou Li's side and help persuade together.
"You're talking about lightness, but it's not your money."
The latter raised his hand and knocked on Chang Jiayao's head:
"Our cheaper building is also more than 10,000 yuan, enough for me and your father to not eat or drink for three or four years......"
Having said that, she didn't say no again.
After all, what parent really doesn't want their children to buy for them?
It's nothing more than worrying about money.
There will be more later
