The auction of the haunted house came to an end.
Just as Yuan Guang and Shi Qian were downcast, they heard an incredible number: "The starting price of this suite is 300,000."
The two suddenly looked up at the auction table, and Bai Liu and his party, who heard the price, also looked over with interest.
The auctioneer looked down at the catalogue while reading the introduction without emotion: "—This is a 2.45 square meter custom house, on the 18th floor, on the edge of the suburb of Sunshine City. It is one of the supporting facilities in Zone E. The physical area after sharing the average area is about 2 square meters. There is no toilet or kitchen, no water, electricity, and electricity network. There is no hospital and supermarket transportation station nearby, which can accommodate one person."
"The last house slave died suddenly at his job, so the auction was withdrawn."
The auctioneer raised his head, his tone indifferent: "The auction starts at 300,000—"
Yuan Guang nervously held a sign of three hundred and ten thousand yuan, and looked around to see if anyone else would rob him, but surprisingly, there were very few people holding signs in such a cheap house, which was completely different from the previous scene of fighting for the house. It's different, and there are people who are holding cards. These people also have obvious fear and hesitation on their faces:
"305,000."
"306,000..."
"Thirty... I'm sorry, I won't shoot anymore, I didn't call it, I'm sorry."
Yuan Guang and Shi Qian looked at each other strangely, and after they were sure that they could photograph the house with a high probability, they discussed in a low voice:
"Why didn't anyone shoot this set? It's very cheap, only 300,000 yuan."
"It's too small, and there is no water and electricity. Is it really impossible to live?"
"No, there was a house in Zone B before, which was a bit bigger than this, 3 square meters, basement, no electricity, the starting price of 470,000 yuan was robbed crazy."
"Is the location too bad?"
"They are all here to take pictures of the murder house. I don't think they seem to care about the location..."
Shi Qian felt wrong as she watched: "I feel like they are afraid of this house."
Yuan Guang became more and more puzzled: "These people are all taking pictures of murderous houses, what other houses can make them scared?"
Yuan Guang and Shi Qian tried to ask the people around what was wrong with the house, but these people kept secret and refused to elaborate. Only the person who spoke with them before kindly persuaded them: "Don't shoot, this house lives. It's really dying."
"Is the undead in the house here?" Shi Qian asked, bewildered from the bottom of his heart.
The man waved his hand, glanced left and right, and leaned close to Shi Qian's ear and whispered: "If you live in a murderous house, you may not be dead, but if you live in this house, you will definitely die. Don't take pictures!"
But if you don’t shoot...
Yuan Guang hesitated, then they didn't take any photos today. Just as these two people were thinking about it, a low male voice came from behind:
"Three hundred and two hundred thousand."
Yuan Guang and Shi Qian turned their heads subconsciously. When they saw that the person holding the placard was the tall and powerful Tang Erda, they immediately sucked in an air-conditioning, then shrank their heads and turned quickly into the crowd, doubling them with sunscreen. The ground concealed himself, but the atmosphere didn't dare to come out.
"Are you still shooting Shi Qian?" Yuan Guang asked in a low voice.
"Fart! Bai Liu and his team are here, we will definitely be seen if we take pictures!" Shi Qian said depressed, "this house can only be given to them first."
The auctioneer seemed to be afraid of Tang Er's remorse, and quickly slammed the deal: "This gentleman, please come up and receive this set of 320,000 worth of houses!"
Tang Erda stepped forward tensely, swiped the recruiter’s ID card with a cold face and paid 320,000 yuan, then quickly took away the real estate certificate, and left with Bai Liu and his group, looking from the back. There is a faint rush and unnaturalness of being a thief for the first time.
Yuan Guang, who was hiding in the crowd, looked at Shi Qian with a sharp look, and asked faintly, "You said, how did their money come from?"
"If I guessed correctly..." Before Shi Qian finished speaking, the auctioneer had already uttered a scream. He pointed in the direction Tang Erda was leaving: "Patrol! Get the person who just swiped the card! He grabbed someone else's card!"
Yuan Guang and Shi Qian: "..."
Ah, sure enough.
"Fortunately, we directly forced those recruiters to write checks..." Yuan Guanghou patted his chest in fear, "It's a risk, it's a risk, otherwise we will also be arrested."
Shi Qian looked at the direction Bai Liu had left, and frowned slowly: "What the hell is going on with the 320,000 yuan house in District E?"
E area.
Bai Liu and the others simply slammed off the patrol team who followed up after going around the bends, and went straight to the place written on the E-zone real estate certificate.
"...No. 444, Street 18..." Mu Sicheng spit out while reading the location on the real estate certificate. "This street number is too unlucky, isn't it? No wonder it's so cheap."
Liu Jiayi glanced at Mu Sicheng: "I don't think things like the road number auspicious or unlucky will affect the house prices in Sunshine City."
"The people here shouldn't care about this kind of thing anymore." Tang Er looked around in a serious manner, "As long as they can live, they should be willing to live anywhere."
Mu Ke frowned and asked: "But they would rather live in a murderous house than live here. In such a cheap house, no more than five people have just raised the sign. Why?"
Bai Liu didn't panic, "I'll know when I go."
Compared with the city center made of reinforced concrete, District E is remote, located on the outskirts of the city, with potholes on the road, full of mud after rain, entertainment facilities in the community, strollers, and slides that are rusty. Rusty, collapsed and collapsed, as inhumane as the road.
Although the buildings in the community are also high-rises, the walls are very old at first glance. Paint, plaster and ceramic tiles are peeling off to varying degrees, and some are covered with green rattan plants. Obviously they are a bit old. Old house.
The entire E area was filled with an aura of decay and decay.
Most of the people living in these old houses are not too young. Those who come out from the windows of the houses to dry their clothes are old grandfathers and old ladies. Most of the clothes are washed to fade and white overalls, more or less patched on the overalls.
The buildings were repaired in the same way, and there were no landmark buildings. Even the style of each house and the clothes drying on the balcony were similar. Soon Mu Sicheng was stunned: "Why does this place look the same everywhere," How do I get on the 444 road?"
"Ask for the way." Tang Erda took the real estate certificate and looked around. He saw a pair of old people walking down slowly from the stroller, helping each other, "Hello, how can I get on Road 444, Area E?" "
The old couple heard Tang Erda's asking for directions and looked up at Tang Erda. When they could see the faces of the two old people, Tang Erda's eyes stopped for a moment.
The two old men, a man and a woman, had muddy eyeballs. From the edge of the mouth to the bridge of the nose were covered with senile plaques as dense as small insects. Between their breaths, there was a smell of rotten organs, ears and nasal cavity. A yellow-green, reddish blood pus was flowing in it, dripping drop by drop to the ground, and it was not absorbed by the ground.
These two elderly people are so old that normal people can imagine the adjective "old", and even make people think that they are like... two corpses that can move.
"You are..." Tang Erda glanced at the stroller.
The grandfather replied tremblingly: "I'm sick and I just exercised with my wife."
"If the old man is sick, please take a good rest." Tang Er hit his hands firmly holding the two men, frowning and asked, "Where are your children?"
The grandmother next to her shook her head: "Can't rest, we still have to go to work."
"Go to work?!" Mu Sicheng helped hold the grandmother and asked inexplicably, "Mother-in-law, you are so old, and you still have to go to work?"
The grandmother looked at Mu Sicheng strangely: "Yes, you don't have money to get it if you don't go to work."
The old man next to him nodded in agreement: "Our couple still have to pay the mortgage."
For a while, everyone was silent, only Bai Liu slowly stepped forward to take over, and took the old man from Tang Erda's hand: "How many years have you taken the loan?"
The old man shook his hands and compared a seven: "My wife and I took a loan together. After seventy years of loan, I started working at the age of 15, and now I have ten years to pay off the loan."
"You need to exercise well to continue working and continue to repay the loan." The old man patted Bai Liu and held his hand as if educating young people. "Don't avoid work because of illness. This is not right. You see, I have worked hard. After sixty years, I will finally have my own house soon."
The grandmother seemed to sigh: "Unfortunately, there is nothing left here in Zone E. In the early days when Zone E was full of young people, it was as luxuriant as Zone A and the house price was high. Unfortunately, only old people like us live here. "
"We are getting older, and we are not as energetic as when we were young, and we were able to work seven or eight jobs a day. We couldn't make much money. We couldn't open high-consumption places like hospitals and schools. We moved out a few years ago. There aren’t even a few restaurants left around here in the year.” The grandfather shook his head.
"Hospital schools and the like will move away?" Mu Sicheng was surprised. "You can't rent houses here. They should buy the facades to build hospitals and schools, right? How to move?"
The old man nodded: "Of course they have to move away if they can't go on. Although they charge a lot of hospitals and schools, we are not incomprehensible. The mortgages for buying a storefront to do business are very high. People also have a hard time, earning fifty yuan, and forty-eight yuan must be used to pay the mortgage."
"The same goes for restaurants. A dish costs 70 yuan, and 65 yuan must be used to pay the mortgage. It is difficult to do business and it is difficult to do business." The grandmother shook her head and agreed. If you can’t go down and can’t pay the mortgage, you have to die. After you die, the property is taken back. Isn’t this just moving away?"
Mu Sicheng opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't say anything.
Soon the old man cheered up again: "Although the current supporting facilities in Zone E are not good, the houses in Zone E are still a bit good."
The grandmother’s face also brought a grateful smile: "Fortunately, we bought it early, otherwise we will have to chew on it now."
The old man also nodded solemnly on the facts and commented quite contemptuously. The beards on both sides of his anger were shaking: "Yes, this group of young people don’t do anything, and they want to have a good life and want a good house. , If you don’t fight, you don’t know how to eat the next generation, it’s really disgusting!"
"What's gnawing?" Mu Sicheng was a little dizzy. "What next generation?"
The old man glanced at this young man who didn't know anything, and explained in a good temper: "It's the property rights period."
"The house in Zone E was bought early, and the tenure of the property rights was given to one hundred years. That is to say, you can live in this house for almost one hundred years, so we can borrow for seventy years, but now the real estate agent is not willing to give such a long property right. The number of years is up."
"Yes." The grandmother nodded, "I remember it seems that there is only 20 years of property rights, and the real estate developers will recover them after 20 years. Therefore, the loan must be paid off within 20 years. The monthly mortgage is very high. Many young people can’t afford it if they don’t eat small things."
Tang Er frowned when he inquired: "What's gnaw?"
He has only heard of nibbling old and not nibbling small.
The old man glanced at this group of young people who didn't know anything, hesitated for a moment, and said: "It is to advance the future and let your future children help you repay the loan. A new loan repayment model developed by the five major developers."
"If you are interested, there is a new building opened in Zone C today, so you can go there and ask."
New properties in Area C.
When the magnificent property sales center landed three days ago, there were countless people coming and going. Now it finally opened. A group of people like the hungry guys who have been hungry for more than ten days and smelled the feast, swarming in madly. Within.
On both sides of the door stood fierce patrols holding guns/arms, high-voltage electric batons and steel forks to maintain order.
Yuan Guang and Shi Qian were completely swept in by the swarming crowd. After entering, the two of them were so crowded that their heads were dumbfounded for a few seconds, and it took a while for them to come back to their senses.
There are too many people coming to the new real estate. Yuan Guang and Shi Qian’s expectations are far beyond their expectation. They had only heard the news and prepared to come and have a look. After all, the price of the new real estate is really terrifying. They can afford 60 million.
But... Compared to auctioning murder houses one by one, not every house can be auctioned off. Purchasing new real estate should be the most stable and accurate way to clear the game.
Originally, Yuan Guang and Shi Qian thought that such an expensive new property would not be visited by many people, because they couldn't afford it. When they arrived, the door of the unopened property sales center had already been photographed.
The people in the line were mixed, and there were everyone. Yuan Guang and Shi Qian saw the well-dressed, the first-class citizens at first glance. There were also sallow-looking, crumbling house slaves, and some with resumes on their chests. Brand, temporary residents without clothing.
This extremely mixed crowd structure confuses Yuan Guang and the others even more.
Why do first-class citizens buy a house again? Isn't the house slave repaying the loan? Why do you want to come to a new building? Can you afford it? Temporary residents simply don't have the ability to repay their loans, and they can't even make up a down payment. Why should they come here
When they were swept in by the crowd, before they recovered, an enthusiastic salesman helped them up and asked politely, "Hello, are you here to buy a house?"
Yuan Guang was a little flattered when he was helped up: "Yes, yes."
The real estate-related NPCs here are all very arrogant and arrogant. When you see that your clothes cannot afford the cost of buying a house, they can’t wait to look at people with their noses, wave their hands and drive you away impatiently like a fly, Yuan Guang also I thought that the sales NPCs who came to the sales office would pay more attention to the dishes, but I didn't expect to have such a good attitude.
"Today's property market hasn't opened yet. Do you want to look at the location and location first? I'm Xiaodong, a salesperson in District C, number 1534. You can ask me if you have anything." Xiaodong smiled like a flower, and moved quickly to support Shi. Qian and Yuan Guang sat down, "Is there any favorite drink or tea?"
Yuan Guang said vigilantly: "Coke, do you have it?"
Shi Qian: "Chrysanthemum tea is fine, thank you."
Xiaodong smiled and nodded, and helped Mai in his ear: "Please prepare me a cup of coke and a cup of chrysanthemum tea. Okay, I'll get it for you. Please wait a moment."
Looking at Xiaodong’s back, Shi Qian and Yuan Guang took a quick look at the surrounding situation and found that all sales were very enthusiastic about homeowners, house slaves and temporary residents, as if these were their potential customers. Everyone can afford a house.
Shi Qian calmly said: "With such enthusiasm, there must be a demon if something goes wrong. We will ask in detail later."
Yuan Guang nodded heavily.
Xiaodong soon came over with a plate. She handed the Coke and chrysanthemum tea on the plate to Shi Qian and Yuan Guang respectively, and opened the map of the real estate to introduce to them: "Everyone came here this time to see what style they are. Where's the room?"
"We have a small apartment with 12-16 square meters. It is very suitable for a family. Excluding the average area, there are still more than 11 square meters. It is a choice for a very large family of three."
"Of course, if there is a need to raise more children, the apartment type of 20-25 square meters is also very recommended. If you remove the average area, you can still have 20+ square meters, and you can live with three to four brothers and sisters."
"For example, when decorating this apartment, you can design nesting two folding beds and an invisible bed, and this big bookcase is blocked in front of the bedside of parents and children. You can only see each other’s feet. If you don’t reach the other person’s head, there is privacy for each other."
Xiaodong said with a narrow smile: "And this will not affect the life of your husband and wife."
Yuan Guang and Shi Qian stared blankly at the small house of more than 20 years. There was only a large bookcase between the parents and the children, and they could see the opposite feet. In this case, they still have to live a married life...
Moreover, Yuan Guang and Shi Qian are also watching this apartment with a man and a woman. After hearing this, they nodded in agreement: "Yes, there is more privacy in this way. Our previous set was 12 flats, three A child can only sit on the ground and watch us get under the covers. My wife and I can’t stand it a bit.”
Shi Qian next to her was drinking water and almost squirted out.
Big brother, the three children are watching you, and you can still engage with your wife. Is there something serious? !
But the salesperson's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Do you have three children in your family?"
The man nodded slightly reservedly: "Yes, we came here this time because of the child..."
Sales smiled more intimately: "Since there are three children, then you can consider this 28-square-meter large apartment..."
The two people communicated farther and farther, Shi Qian looked around with a little doubt, she finally found out what was wrong—
—Most of the people who come to buy houses are one man and one woman, many with several children, one or two children at least, and most of the sales introduction units focus on being able to live with children.
It's a little... strange.
Here in Sunshine City, Shi Qian asks herself that she is definitely unwilling to marry or have children, but the willingness of people to have children here is quite high. You can see the clues from the most popular apartment types—most people ask when they come up. It is about 25 square meters and can accommodate three children.
Xiaodong introduced all the apartment types, her eyes swept back and forth between Yuan Guang and Shi Qian: "Are you two still not planning to get married and have children?"
Both Yuan Guang and Shi Qian were stunned. Their colleagues for many years, in reality, because they are too social and animal, they have encountered unfinished buildings and games. They have long seen that the four are empty, and they no longer have that secular desire for the opposite sex.
No matter how good their relationship is, the deterioration of their relationship means that they jump from friends to family members. Because they have never considered this problem, they are a little bit at a loss when they are asked so suddenly.
Yuan Guanggang wanted to say no, but Shi Qian quickly stopped her by covering her mouth with her eyes and hands. She had already discovered that the problem was with the child, so she raised her eyes to face the sales, pretending to be shy: "... Yes, I am going to give him three births." Children."
Yuan Guang, who had finished drinking a whole can of Coke next to him, opened his eyes wide and hiccuped in horror.
Xiaodong understands: "Since the two have plans to have children, then I will introduce to both of you a brand-new loan service developed by Sunshine City Real Estate to make it easier for everyone to buy a house-Sunshine Nursery Loan."
Shi Qian retracted her hand and asked attentively: "What kind of loan is this?"
"Many people living in Sunshine City cannot earn a down payment for a house in their lifetime. For example, this 25-square-meter apartment will cost 8 million yuan at the current average price of 320,000 square meters. The Sunshine Seedling Loan requires a minimum down payment of 50%. , That is, four million. The balance will have to be repaid for 20 years. If interest is not included, the monthly payment will be 16,000. Most families can afford to buy a house."
Shi Qian couldn't help refuting: "How can there be no interest on the loan?"
Xiaodong smiled: "The Sunshine Seedling Loan we promote does not require interest, you two."
Yuan Guang shook his head: "No interest is required. The down payment of 4 million is too high. Few people can afford it?"
"This is the subtlety of Sunshine Loan." The enthusiastic smile on Xiaodong's face became deeper and deeper, "Sunshine Nursery Loan provides services for accepting children's pre-mortgage loans."
Yuan Guang didn't react for a while: "What mortgage?"
"Child." Xiaodong repeated the word eloquently. She took out a contract and introduced it with a smile, "That's it. If you can only pay a down payment of one million, then you can leave three million. Let your child sign a labor contract with our real estate company, and let him use labor as mortgage in the future. For example, for three children, each of them only needs to mortgage one million wages."
Yuan Guang looked down at the labor contract that Xiaodong handed him:
[... Party A promises that when its offspring are 16 years old and have the ability to work, they will enter Party B’s company and work 12 hours a day. Party B promises to provide a monthly salary of 4,500 (average salary). After deducting 80% of Party A’s descendants to repay the mortgage each month, until Party A’s descendants have repaid Party A’s mortgage debt. 】
Yuan Guang's back was chilled, he slowly raised his head, and his mind was dizzy for an instant: "80% of his salary has been deducted to repay the loan. He has to work twelve hours a day and has no rest time. How do children live?"
"Then this is not what you worry about." Xiaodong said with a faint smile, "Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren. Do you enjoy yourself?"
"Furthermore, if you are worried that if your child is tired, he will be able to have children in the future to enjoy himself."
