Chapter 45 The rich city and the poor

For mobile reading, please visit m.

Boss, are you speculating in real estate? Do you want to see if I have land?

In this way, Zhou Ming has basically never stopped since he arrived in Qionghai. Even if he buys a car and washes a car, he can still encounter a family speculating in real estate at home. It is simply a level of fanaticism among the whole people. I am afraid that only the national stock trading can be compared during the period when the stock market opened. Of course, perhaps even stock trading may not be as good as stock trading.

It is precisely for this reason that Zhou Ming, who had been listening for a day, shouldn't be stranger when he heard it again, but this timid sentence at this time made Zhou Ming feel a little stunned. It's very simple. Those who speculate in real estate are full of confidence and think that a promising profession at this time also wants to speculate and make money, but at this time this sentence is obviously not confident and shy.

Turning around, she saw a little girl about thirteen or fourteen years old standing in front of her. She was thin and short, with a little dark skin.

Seeing Zhou Ming looking over, the little girl seemed very nervous, and she didn't even know where to sway her hands and feet for a while, rubbing her fingers and carrying them behind her back.

"The boss sees you are very rich. Do you want to see my land?"

The little girl mustered up the courage to ask again, but that's all her courage, because after she said that, she actually hid behind Su Han.

This made Zhou Ming feel a little amused. Zhou Ming shook his head gently. The little girl was anxious when she saw this. She grabbed Su Han's sleeve and poked out half of her body and said, "Boss, you can go and have a look. The feng shui of our house is very good, and there will definitely be great development in the future. Please!"

Seeing that the little girl was so anxious that her eyes were red and she was about to cry, Su Han helped, "It doesn't matter if Zhou Ming, we go and see it. I don't think she looks like a bad person."

"I didn't say she was a bad person, I was just curious..."

Zhou Ming didn't finish speaking, because the little girl had already cried, and she apologized to Zhou Ming with sobs: "Sir, I'm sorry, I'm so rude! I'm so useless. Others can sell the land, but I can't do it..."

Zhou Ming was a little surprised: Why did this look like he was bullying her?

"Forget it! Miss, then you can take us to your house and take a look." Zhou Ming said to him.

The little girl raised her head and looked at Zhou Ming in disbelief: "Is this true for the boss? Are you really willing to go with me to see my land? But... they said that the land needs to be approved by the government, and I don't have it."

Zhou Ming really doesn't know what to say. Others want to say everything they sell, but the little girl said directly that there were no procedures for the place where Zhou Ming was going to see. So since there were no procedures, how could we do the project and speculate in real estate? Isn't this funny? However, Zhou Ming felt relieved in her performance. After all, Zhou Ming was still worried about what methods would be there in Lai Xingcheng before.

"It doesn't matter if there are any procedures. Let's get in the car and take a look first." Zhou Ming said.

"But... but they all said that if there are no procedures, the land will be as worthless as garbage." The little girl told Zhou Ming very frankly.

Su Han went over and grabbed her hand, and said to her gently: "Don't worry, this big brother is different from others, he will not lie to you."

After hearing Su Han's words, the little girl felt relieved and then took her into the car. The little girl actually wanted to take off her shoes and get on the car barefoot, saying that her shoes would dirty the car, which made Zhou Ming and Su Han think she was too cute, and also made Su Han see her past self. She was also so timid and kind, and wanted to do things but was afraid of everything, which made Su Han feel a sense of mutual appreciation.

Then, under the guidance of the little girl, they reached her village for about a quarter of an hour.

"Is this your village?" Zhou Ming asked in confusion.

It’s no wonder that Zhou Ming is confused, because what is shown in front of Zhou Ming is a very backward rural appearance. Looking along a mud road that is as bumpy as Yingxiu, there are many old houses built with rattan and wood mixed with mud on both sides. No matter how you look at it, it’s a super poor village!

In fact, it is nothing to see a poor village in this era, but you should know that it is only a quarter of an hour away from the key planning site just now, which is very strange.

"Big brother, please believe me. I know this place looks very shabby, but no one has developed it. In fact, it is very beautiful..."

The little girl lowered her head as she spoke, obviously she had no confidence in her words.

"I can tell that this place is beautiful." Zhou Ming comforted her and then asked, "Then where is your home?"

"Really? I just said it's beautiful!"

After Zhou Ming said this, the little girl seemed very happy. She then pointed to a dirt house not far away and told Zhou Ming that it was her home.

"Grandma! I'll take the boss to see my house!"

The little girl took Zhou Ming and Su Han to her house excitedly. An old man wearing a yellowed and white vest was choosing betel nuts in the yard. He slowly straightened his waist when he heard the little girl's shout.

"What did Xiaohong make you so happy?" the old lady asked with a smile.

Xiaohong is the little girl's nickname and her name. Her original name is Fu Xiaohong.

"Of course I found the big boss! Didn't Brother Wang, who was at the village head last time, say that there are many people in the city buying land and building houses now? So I want to sell our land, so I will have money to treat my mother?" Xiaohong said.

The old lady noticed Zhou Ming and the others. Zhou Ming and Su Han came over to say hello to her. Zhou Ming and Su Han noticed that one of the old lady's eyes was white and the other eye looked very bad in vision.

"So it's the big boss from the city. Hello, it's hard for you to come to our small village."

The old lady walked over slowly and said, then she asked Xiaohong to go and get coconut to entertain guests first. She took Zhou Ming and sat on the wooden bench next to her and said to Zhou Ming: "Big boss from the city, you came here after hearing Xiaohong's words about selling land. I will first apologize to you on behalf of her, because our land cannot be sold."

"It's okay, we've guessed this a long time ago. We just came here to see the situation."

Zhou Ming said that he then asked: "Grandma, do you want to ask if you are natives from Qionghai? How long have you been settled here?"

The old lady looked confused and obviously didn't understand why Zhou Ming suddenly asked this question, but she answered truthfully: "We have been natives from Qionghai since my grandfather's generation. It is said that they were descendants of a high-ranking official a long time ago, but I can't remember it too long."

"Oh grandma, you don't have to answer so carefully. I'm not the village committee checking the household registration, I just ask casually."

Zhou Ming explained to her, and then Zhou Ming said: "Grandma, have your village been so poor all the time? What do you always rely on to make a living? Are you all farming?"

The old lady nodded and replied: "Yes, it was the educated youth who went to the countryside a long time ago to teach us to grow betel nuts. Many people in our village have always relied on betel nuts for a living. Of course, we will also grow some coconuts and rice on the beach."

"What about now? I see that the real estate industry in Qionghai is so popular. If you find a bank loan to build a house and sell it, you can make a lot of money, right?" Zhou Ming asked again.

"Loan? Isn't that just borrowing money from the bank? But why do I have to borrow money to build a house now? And I have been in Qiongzhou for a lifetime. Everyone has a house, so who will I sell it to after I have built it?"

At the end of her speech, she sighed heavily: "Maybe this is because we lack brains. I know that you people in the city have been speculating on houses recently. We are stupid people in Qionghai and have never figured out how you operate, so we don't know how to make a fortune like you."

"Wait, you said just now that you are stupid in Qionghai and don't know how we operate it? What does this mean? Are the people who speculate in real estate now not you Qionghai locals?" Su Han asked after hearing the key point.

"Of course not. We Qionghai people don't know how to do this kind of business!" said the old lady. "It's strange to say that our Qionghai has always been very poor, and we have no resources or factories. I don't know why. Since two years ago, many people from other places have come here. They speak the accent of all over the world, as if overnight, our Qionghai has become the City of All Nations."

"So isn't the government planning to sell land? I think it has built a lot of houses, which should have occupied a lot of your land and even arable land, right? Didn't you give you compensation?" Zhou Ming continued.

Faced with this problem, she thought about it carefully and said: "I heard that there is one thing about compensation, but this is not a development of Qionghai. Is it necessary to lead us to develop? We are too happy, so how can we get any compensation? However, it seems that after those outsiders come too many times, our betel nuts can be sold more and more expensive, but we buy rice and meat, and it is also more and more expensive."

"I understand, grandma, thank you very much."

Zhou Ming thanked Xiaohong grandma and stood up. He walked to the gate of the yard. Looking at the situation around him, there were many children not far away who were curious about their cars watching. Zhou Ming sighed: "I think I understand what the problem is!"

Su Han kept following Zhou Ming: "So what's the problem?"

"It's the overall economic situation of Qionghai." Zhou Ming replied, "Look at the hot Qionghai real estate market and the economic development of Qionghai, or the income of Qionghai people, are completely disproportionate."

"Simply put, you have to sell the house to make money by building it, but looking at the situation of these Qionghai people, maybe Xiaohong and the others are a poor village, but from Yingxiu to this place, I believe that this is the most real situation in Qionghai!"

Zhou Ming said: "Then the problem is now. With the financial affordability of these Qionghai people, they will definitely not be able to afford those houses that are often 6,700,000 or 7,000 square meters. Who can these houses be sold to? Will those outsiders settle here? That's a joke."

Zhou Ming finally: "So it's certain that almost everything Qionghai is doing now, including the construction of the Blue Sky New Area we saw last, is worthless!"
