It was not until the day before New Year's Eve that Shi Zhen and the others returned to their hometown.
Many places in the county have changed. For example, roads that were only leveled before are now poured with asphalt or cement.
There are also many more motorcycles here. As long as you give money, you can send people to nearby villages, and the speed is very fast.
It was not very safe, so Shi Zhen saw two adults on a motorcycle, who were not wearing helmets, whizzing past his tractor.
When they returned to the village, Shi Dalin and Zhao Meiyun still gathered a lot of people to listen to what they said about the outside world.
Although Shi Dashan and his family made a lot of money outside, Shi Zhen and the others made more, and everyone was more curious about their lives.
And they have a telephone at home. I heard that Shi Zhen has a big brother... When people from the village come to their house, they all want to take a look at Shi Zhen's mobile phone.
Since I hit the mountain, my mobile phone has no signal, and now its function is only to be visited by people, and then those people will praise Shi Zhen again.
Not only that, but Shi Zhen also found that... Now the attitude of the villagers towards their family is obviously different.
Even the people who told Zhao Qiujuan to kiss are gone. Everyone acquiesced that Zhao Qiujuan would not look for someone in the village again.
After all, Shi Zhen and his family have bought a house outside, and they may stay outside and not come back in the future.
However, no matter how powerful their family is in the eyes of the villagers, at this moment... they still have to live in dilapidated houses.
The house is really broken, the roof is full of leaking holes.
Shi Dalin slept in the main room for one night, and the next day his nose was blocked.
He kept blowing his nose and complained, "This house is really uncomfortable to live in."
Zhao Meiyun said without thinking, "Yeah, last night, a mouse came out of our house. The mouse ran towards the wall and almost scared Tingting to tears."
Although he only stayed for one night after returning, Zhao Meiyun already felt that everything was not going well here.
If nothing else, it would be very inconvenient for the three of them to sleep in the same bed.
As for the mouse, when the mouse ran by Shi Ting back then, Shi Ting was not afraid of kicking it. Once Shi Zhen killed a mouse, she even asked if she could eat it... Now when she saw the mouse, she screamed again and again. jump!
Zhao Meiyun said while preparing to make breakfast, and then she was not used to it.
Their home is in Anshan Town, and the rice cookers, gas stoves and coal stoves are all complete, and cooking is very fast.
But here, it is inconvenient to use a soil stove to cook.
Let's just say this pot is big and bulky. She wants to wash after cooking a dish, so she has to pour water into it, and then scoop out the water with a gourd after washing it.
She used to be able to cook the next dish without washing it after finishing it, but now she can't stand it.
Shi Dalin said: "Azhen, can we let Daniel and the others stay here for a few more days to help us build a house for the new year? This way, when we come back next year, we can live in a new house!"
"Dad, I got news that Anning Road in Anshan Town will be lengthened, and the land on both sides will be sold... When you buy the land, you can build a house along the street. You don't want the house in Anshan Town, you want to build it here? Shi Zhen asked Shi Dalin.
The biggest road in Anshan Town is Anning Road.
It was originally a river, but it was filled in and turned into a road.
The road is not long. The south side of the road is a residential area. The house rented by the Shi family is in a small alley on the south side of the road.
On the north side of the road, there are also many small alleys leading out, such as vegetable markets and movie theaters.
The food court cinema or something further north, that is the primary school and junior high school.
Anshan Town will be developed next, and the surrounding farmers will be demolished to expand the town. During this period, Anning Road will be stretched from west to east, and several more roads will be built from south to north.
Then, because the development requires money, the money is not enough... In Anshan Town, the land on the roadside will be sold to build houses, and the money will be collected.
After receiving the money, they will compensate the farmers again. Of course, the money is definitely not enough to compensate, and then they will give the farmers a piece of land by the roadside, so that the farmers can build houses on the roadside with the compensation money.
Because of the lack of money, the farmers at this time could not bear the lack of land, so the demolition process was a bit slow. However, later, all the young people entered the factory and were unwilling to do farm work any more. The economy developed again. The annual rent is still two or three times the income earned from farming... Everyone is scrambling for demolition.
It was demolished slowly like this. Ten years later, even Guanjia Village, which was some distance from the town, was completely demolished.
The demolition has little to do with the Shi family. The house that Shi Zhen just bought is surrounded by old houses crowded together. The town will not consider demolition for the time being.
The cost of demolishing the old houses in the town is much higher than the cost of expropriating the land of the surrounding farmers.
At this time, one mu of farmer's land will be expropriated, and a few thousand yuan will be enough. One mu of land in the town... How many houses should there be in it
After more than ten years, the old houses will be demolished and renovated if they affect the appearance of the city.
Speaking of buying land, this is actually what Shi Zhen had planned.
Shi Dalin and the others have some savings, so does Zhao Qiujuan, Shi Xingchao Shi Dashan and the others should have a lot of savings now.
The two families can get together, buy a piece of land on the street, and build a house together.
At that time, Anshan Town asked people who bought land along the street to build a unified house with five floors.
The land for these houses is about 140 square meters.
That is to say, except for the shops on the ground floor, there are four houses of nearly 140 square meters.
At that time, there were many people in the town, and the families were very crowded, so they bought a piece of land to build a house with others.
They all made money later.
In the 2000s, the rent for a pavement was about 10,000 or 20,000 yuan, and a good location was even more expensive!
As for the house above, it is also worth more every year.
After he picked up Shi Dalin and the others, he initially bought houses facing the street from the rural relocated households for them to live in.
At that time, some demolition households, in order to save costs and make the house bigger, would combine two houses with one staircase, so he bought one set for each family, and bought two sets for Shi Dalin, Zhao Meiyun, and Zhao Qiujuan's house, which cost him two. One hundred and fifty thousand.
At that time, he didn't have much money. After buying two apartments, he had no money. Shi Ting and Zhao Dongjuan were not married. He thought they could both live with Shi Dalin and his wife, so he didn't buy them.
Later, when Shi Ting married, she lived with her in-laws, and Zhao Dongjuan... She kept making trouble, so Shi Zhen bought her a one-bedroom, one-hall dormitory that the factory in the town used to assign to employees. It was very cheap.
It's a pity that Zhao Dongjuan feels too young and has been dissatisfied.
At the beginning of 2000 years, a house cost more than 100,000 yuan, but now it is only 100,000 yuan in total to buy land and build a house with a five-story house.
There is no harm in buying it!
Moreover, Shi Dalin and the others have a lot of money, so some strange ideas may come up.
In his last life, Shi Zhen realized one thing. Like him, most people who came out of the countryside and suddenly became rich have too much money in their hands, which is not a good thing.
Women are better. Men, especially young men, are particularly prone to drift. As soon as they drift, they feel that they are rich, feel that they are cattle, cigarettes are better than expensive wine, and they want to buy luxury cars when they buy a car. , but also to gamble with women.
The best way to deal with them is to let them spend it all when they have some money, then they will be honest again immediately.
And this flower, of course, can not be spent indiscriminately, it is best to buy a house.
Speaking of which, Shi Xingxing's future husband, Liang Weiguo, just "floated". In 2008, the couple made some money, and he immediately went to buy a 200,000 car. To make some money, it means to buy a million-dollar car.
Then he was scolded by Shi Xingxing.
Later, every time they had some money, Shi Xingxing went to buy a house and took out a bunch of mortgages for the family... He no longer dreamed of a luxury car, and even his car was not changed for 14 years until Shi Zhen died.
Shi Dashan and Shi Dalin are not too young, and they are more practical. Shi Zhen believes that they will not gamble with women, but after Shi Dalin has money, he is really at a loss.
What I still think about is to build a house in the mountains.
Better to let him spend the money.
By the way, one thing to guard against when you have money is to be defrauded of money.
In her previous life, Zhao Qiujuan was cheated of the money she had worked hard to save.
From the beginning to the end, he has been holding the money in his hand, and the only one who has never been scammed for money is Shi Xingchao!
"Buying land to build a house?" Shi Dalin was a little confused: "How much does it cost?"
Shi Zhendao: "The land is relatively expensive. It is estimated that it will cost 70,000 to 80,000 yuan to buy it, but it is not expensive to build a house. The money does not have to be cleared at one time, so you can slowly give it a little bit."
Shi Zhen told everything he had learned in his previous life.
Although buying land is expensive, if Shi Dalin and Shi Dashan are a partnership, a family of 40,000 is enough.
When the time comes, it will be divided into one point, just one storefront and two suites, which is very good, no matter how many... they can't afford it.
For loans, at this time, Shi Dalin and the others had difficulty in obtaining loans.
Speaking of which, in addition to buying land along the street, there is another interesting operation here in Changxi City.
Probably to promote buses, but if there is no money, people will pay to buy buses, and then the money earned after the bus runs will be distributed to those who buy cars.
Because of the large flow of people, it is not cheap to take the bus at this time. Many people who bought a car made a lot of money.
Shi Zhen didn't know about this before, but only recently.
In the past two years, Shi Zhen's decision was finally confirmed to be correct. Shi Dalin and Zhao Meiyun, subconsciously, listened to his words.
Not to mention Zhao Qiujuan, she has long been thinking of buying a house!
Shi Zhen mentioned that she could pay one-third of the money, and then give her one of the two suites... What she is thinking about now is her own house that has no shadow.
Shi Ting is also full of yearning for the new house.
She wants a room of her own.
After Shi Dalin became rich last year, he couldn't hold back and bought a color TV.
This year... At the beginning of opening a small shop, he spent all his money and asked him to borrow a lot from Zhao Qiujuan, so he didn't want to buy anything, he just wanted to make money.
But now that the money owed has been paid, and there is still a deposit, he starts thinking about what to buy again.
In fact... He also discussed with Zhao Meiyun in private, and planned to buy a gold chain for the two of them.
But now that he wants to build a house in Anshan Town, he will definitely not buy the golden chain, he has to save money!
Thinking about making money, from the second day of the first lunar month, Shi Dalin and Zhao Meiyun went to the village to set up a stall, selling Huaguang stationery and various snacks.
The things he brought were all sold well in his canteen, and they were also sold well here.
The children around here can get some lucky money during the Chinese New Year, but are they not allowed to buy anything
Let's just say that Shi Daniu's son, even though he was still young, bought something for twenty yuan in one go, that's a rich man.
When Shi Zhen and the others came back this time, they would not leave until the eighth day of the first lunar month, mainly because of Shi Xingchao's wedding, which was scheduled to be held on the sixth day of the first lunar month.
If Shi Xingchao married a local girl, then they should be busy on the fifth day of the first day. The day before the wedding, the man was going to kill a pig, and then give half a pig to the woman's house, and many other miscellaneous things.
After all this tossing, most of the day has passed. In the evening, the man's house has to make a few tables of dishes, and invite people who come to help to eat.
Because Fang Miyan's family is not here, everything on this day was saved, and a lot of money was also saved. As for the wedding day...
According to the local custom, the wedding banquet lasts one day, relatives only eat lunch and dinner, but the helpers have to take care of breakfast.
Early in the morning, Shi Zhen and his family moved their tables, chairs, and pots and pans to Shi Dashan's house, and then worked as a helper and had breakfast.
The staple food for breakfast is rice cake porridge, and the dishes include roasted bamboo shoots with bacon, seaweed with bacon, and fried pickles.
For them, this kind of food can already be called rich. The people in the village who came to help out like Shi Zhen, all had a great time eating it, and they even praised Mi Yan.
The cook is the bride Fang Miyan!
What makes them speechless is... Lunch and dinner are also cooked by Fang Miyan!
They worship here in the morning. Before the worship, Fang Miyan cut up the sauce duck and so on. After the worship, after the helper brought out the dishes she had prepared in advance, she cooked a few hot dishes on the spot. .
Of course, the preparatory work has been done for her by the helpers, and Shi Xingchao also helped her, doing all kinds of chores.
For lunch there is duck with sauce, salted meat with salted fish, and white cut chicken... equally decent.
However, Shi Zhen felt that these things should not cost a lot of money.
After all, they are like ducks. They are not cheap here, but they are quite cheap in Anshan Town. These sauce ducks are made by Fang Miyan, and the cost is lower.
"This sauce duck is really delicious. It's the first time I've eaten such a delicious duck." The villagers were full of praise. They don't have the habit of making sauce duck here, not to mention Fang Miyan's sauce duck. It tastes really good with seasonings such as peppercorns.
"The soup she made is also delicious. It's the first time I've had such a delicious soup."
"These stir-fries are also new in style."
"I heard that Shi Daniu and the others eat the dishes made by the bride every day. This is too enviable!"
"Shi Xingchao is even more enviable. I said that he didn't want this or that before... It turns out that his vision is too high!"
…
As Shi Xingchao's cousin, Shi Zhen is the main force of helpers by convention.
He was responsible for serving the food, and he had to eat until others had finished eating. Of course, this was mainly because there were not enough tables.
However, Shi Ting and Guan Baiyu can eat at the table.
Shi Ting was still young, so he didn't expect her to do anything. As for Guan Baiyu, that was a guest from afar.
People in the village either drink or drink soda, but Guan Baiyu didn't drink anything. He filled the meal and watched Shi Zhen while eating.
When Shi Zhen brought the dishes to their table, he immediately took a piece of meat wrapped in tofu skin and brought it to Shi Zhen's mouth: "Brother!"
His brother has been busy, he must be hungry now!
Shi Zhen looked at the food that was brought to his mouth, stunned for a while, and then opened his mouth to eat.
