70s factory beauty, transform villain cubs to become rich

Chapter 367 Buying a House

Their home is about 30 kilometers from the river, which takes more than an hour by car.

Chen Qing is prone to motion sickness, so he specially sought out an old remedy and applied ginger slices to his stomach and wrists.

The family of four met up with Tian Mengya and Lin Chongping and boarded a bus.

The moment she got into the car, Chen Qing secretly decided that once the reform and opening up were over and cars could be bought in China, she would immediately go and get her driver's license!

Holding the steering wheel makes it less likely to get dizzy.

The bus rattled and chugged along the bumpy dirt road.

Chen Qing only remembered that her stomach was churning. There were other people in the car who had the same idea as them and were going fishing, so they all brought fish buckets. The fish buckets were old and hadn't been cleaned properly, so the fishy smell mixed with the stench of sweat in the summer made her feel even more nauseous...

As the number of people increased, Chen Qing gripped the polished wooden back of the front seat tightly, his throat tightening and an uncontrollable acid reflux rising in his throat.

Seeing this, He Yuan pressed on her acupoints to soothe her.

Tian Mengya looked at Chen Qing with concern: "Are you alright?"

"I'm alright." Chen Qing perked up and asked her, "How about you? Are you alright?"

"I'm alright."

Tian Mengya's morning sickness was sometimes very severe, and sometimes she was fine. In short, the baby in her belly was very unpredictable.

"That's fine."

As long as the pregnant woman is alright, everything is fine.

She said she would recover after getting off the bus and calming down.

After the group arrived at the riverbank, Chen Qing grabbed onto a piece of driftwood like a drowning person and almost staggered off the car.

When her feet touched the soft mud and the river breeze blew, the churning sensation subsided slightly.

However, his face was still pale, and his hands and feet were still a little weak.

"I really love to have fun."

She knew she would get carsick, and she knew that buses these days smell awful, but she still insisted on coming!

Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

Chen Qing paused to catch his breath, regaining his strength, before following Tian Mengya.

The house in Lin Chongping's friend's house is specifically for other people to live in.

He was also a member of the machinery factory.

The whole family has moved into a tenement building.

The family's old house has been left unused. It was originally rented out, but it was later destroyed by someone else and they couldn't bear to rent it out anymore.

Whenever he has free time, he goes back to his old house and asks people he knows if anyone is coming to the riverside. If they are, he charges each person 50 cents a day.

It's a way to earn some extra money.

Chen Qing's family of four stayed for two days and received two yuan.

Their house was very simply furnished, with a large bed and two small beds.

Chen Qing felt that this family was running a bed and breakfast.

He Yuxiang looked around at their yard. It wasn't as big as their house, and it was a bit dilapidated, but at least it was clean.

The family put their things down and then went fishing with the host family.

Chen Qing approached Tian Mengya and asked, "Is there anything wrong with his way of running the business?"

“There is some truth to that, but he only uses people he knows as ‘friends.’ If someone were to report him, they would have to be caught at the moment of the transaction. But we only pay him in his yard, so how could we possibly get caught? Besides, the house can be listed for rent with the housing authority.”

There are policies and measures to counter.

People who want to make money can always find a million ways.

Tian Mengya had been to the black market, and the goods there were more complete than those in the largest department store in their city.

Chen Qing thought about it and agreed. She then asked in a low voice, "Do you have any houses for sale around here?"

Tian Mengya: "A house? Why do you want to buy a house?"

Chen Qing: "Just asking casually."

She was thinking that she and He Yuan had high salaries, she had extra income, He Yuan also had extra income, plus subsidies for their two children, so they could save money from their main jobs.

Money left idle won't appreciate in value; in fact, it will continue to depreciate.

Why not take advantage of the current housing prices and secure property for everyone in the family? Chen Qing's ultimate life goal is: to become a landlady!
Tian Mengya sensed that she wasn't asking casually, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Usually, only when the old natives are transferred to other places by the organization can their families move before they can buy a house."

"I know."

Chen Qing had also secretly inquired and found out that buying a house was very difficult.

Tian Mengya's family owns three houses: a small villa, an old house with a small courtyard, and three rooms in a large courtyard near the old house.

The house was all provided by her father.

The old house wasn't rented out, but the rent for the three rooms in the courtyard was 24 yuan.

Buying a house is possible now, but the amount of money you spend on it must be linked to your salary.

For example, if your salary is only thirty-six yuan and you have to support three children, but you end up buying a house that costs over a thousand yuan, then the organization will investigate your source of income.

Her father has spent all the money he's openly saving on houses.

"Why do you leaders all like buying houses so much?"

"The house is available for rent."

"I'll try to find out for you later. I work in the finance department, so it's relatively easy for me to get information in this area."

"Row."

Chen Qing nodded.

During their casual conversation, the group arrived at the riverbank and were immediately struck by the expansive scenery.

Xiao Yu stared wide-eyed at the enormous river, exclaiming, "It's so big!"

The river water was murky and yellowish, but it shimmered like scattered gold in the sunlight.

One wave pushes another, gently lapping against the rocks on the shore.

Xiao Yu stood on tiptoe to look, as if she were standing higher and could see further.

He Yuxiang also took in the scenery of the river and suddenly felt that it's good to have money.

For example, his uncle and aunt have high salaries, so they can take them out to play on weekends.

If they have no money, they will definitely be forced to work and struggle for food and drink.

Being forced to work isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Often it's just a matter of making a living.

His height-increasing insoles were made in cooperation with the people of Xiashui Village. Hong Dazhu's child had to do a lot of work at a young age, and the couple dared not relax for a moment, because if they relaxed even slightly, the child would run out of food...

He Yuxiang sighed softly.

Chen Qing came to his side and saw that he had a furrowed brow: "Are you feeling uncomfortable because you fell into the water and saw water before?"

"No."

He Yuxiang denied it.

He was truly not afraid.

There are a bunch of adults around me now, what am I afraid of?
Chen Qing: "Then why are you frowning?"

He Yuxiang: "I like to frown."

Chen Qing: "Are you sick?"

He Yuxiang ignored her and went to get his fishing rod.

My uncle made three fishing rods, so all four members of the family can go fishing.

He Yuan chose a backwater bay where reeds were sparse and trees cast dappled shadows.

He deftly set up the simple bamboo fishing rod he had brought.

The fishing rod was made of nylon fishing line tied to the top and the hook was made by bending a sewing needle. It was very simple, but the fishing rod was free, and Chen Qing was very satisfied.

They already have few opportunities to fish, so there's no need for them to spend money on fishing.

They dug out some fish bait mixed with sesame oil and bran from an old tin can.

The earthy smell mixed with the aroma of sesame oil had a strangely appealing quality.

Looking at the calm river, Chen Qing asked, "When can we start fishing?"
