Volume 1: Reborn in the 1980s, selling lunch boxes with my mother Chapter 52 You Are Worthy of Being My Aunt
Hu Qiongfang had no good feelings towards this woman whose brain seemed to have been kicked by a donkey.
She didn't much want a second plot of land.
Although it is much cheaper, it is just a piece of vacant land and I have to spend extra money to build a house. All in all, the price is almost the same as the first one.
However, Jiang Tian thought about it and still felt that the second piece of land was better.
Even though it is a piece of vacant land, you still have to spend your own money to build a house on it.
But building a house in this era is not expensive. If you don’t build a high-rise building, you can build a red brick house, cover the roof with tiles, build a row of storefronts in the front, and then build three living rooms in the back. Including the fence, two thousand yuan is enough.
And it’s a new house.
The one on the west side, although it is a ready-made house, I heard that it was built almost ten years ago. After they buy it, they may have to spend money to break down the walls, apply whitewash and so on.
Besides, the house is so old, it will be troublesome to repair it in the future.
There was no man in their family, and Jiang Tian was reluctant to let her mother climb up and down to repair the house.
Therefore, it is better to build a new house right from the start. If the quality of the house is better, it will not need major repairs for at least a few years.
Most importantly,
"Mom, my aunt just said that the two sons of that family are working hard to earn the family fortune. Who knows if they sell the house now and the price of the house goes up in a few years , will their family say that the old man's handprint when selling the house doesn't count and they want to buy the house back at the original price?"
"Since our family is going to start a business, we must have a sign. Just think about it, Mom. By the time our family has finally made a name for the noodle shop, that family will want to take back the house."
"The house is a small matter. What if someone gets jealous of the money our noodle shop can make? They buy the house back, put up our sign, and open their own noodle shop."
"If you don't know, you might think theirs is the authentic one."
Hu Qiongfang took a breath of cold air.
Wang Chunjuan also widened her eyes.
They hadn't even thought of this.
Yes!
When opening a shop to do business, especially when selling food, the signboard is of utmost importance.
Jiang Tian is right. If you want to open a store and make it a signature store, you definitely can't just move the location casually.
At the beginning, Wang Chunjuan and her husband refused to rent someone else's ready-made shop and insisted on setting up a shed at the fork of the provincial road to fry dough sticks in the wind and snow. Wasn't it because they were afraid that if word of mouth got good, the landlord would become jealous and take the shop back to open their own shop?
By then, they have worked hard for several years, but in the end they have let the landlord get the upper hand.
Who can bear this kind of rage?
Han Dajun took out half a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and was about to light one, but when he saw his wife glaring at him, he awkwardly stuffed the half pack back into his pocket.
He agreed without saying anything else: "I think Tiantian is right. Mayor Liu's land is still the best."
"They are all vacant land. When we build new houses on them, we don't have to spend money to hire someone to demolish the houses."
"Besides, that piece of land is close to our home, so our two families can take care of each other in the future."
These words really touched my wife's heart.
Wang Chunjuan slammed the table and said, "Fangfang, just buy the land owned by Mayor Liu! If it's inconvenient for you to come over to see the kids, I'll find someone to build a house for you. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
After hearing what her daughter said, Hu Qiongfang also felt that the second piece of land was better.
The main reason is that she doesn't like arguing with others.
If people really say that the house sold by the old man doesn’t count and come to make trouble with them every day, how can their store continue to do business?
It would be better to take some trouble and spend some time to build a few grand storefronts, which can be regarded as a property for the two children.
Especially my daughter Tiantian.
In Hu Qiongfang's heart, there is no need to worry about her son Chengcheng. As long as he keeps up with his studies and can get into university and become a cadre in the future, why would she have to worry about having no place to live?
On the contrary, my daughter is sweet.
I don’t know what’s the feng shui of the Jiang family. The boys are all good at studying. As for the daughter, her grades are not too bad, but she is just an average student in the class.
It wasn’t noticeable when she was in elementary school, but when she reached junior high school, Jiang Tian’s weakness in science was suddenly exposed .
Let me put it this way, my daughter has never passed algebra since she entered junior high school.
In the past, Hu Qiongfang thought that it was not a good thing for her daughter to not study well. She just needed to find a good husband in the future. Isn’t that how women live their lives anyway?
But now, Hu Qiongfang suddenly realized that in this life, a woman can neither rely on her own family nor her husband's family.
Men are even less reliable.
The only person she could rely on was herself...
Therefore, in Hu Qiongfang's heart, she planned to do her best to support her son's college education, and boys had to be allowed to pursue their own future.
As for her daughter Tiantian, she is no longer able to push her to grow up, so she might as well learn a skill and let Tiantian run the family noodle shop in the future. Even if the man is unreliable, at least she won't suffer from poverty and hunger, right?
Thinking about it this way, I really can’t keep the first old house.
Otherwise, it will have to be demolished and rebuilt in a few years, which will not only waste money but also delay the store's business .
At that time, Hu Qiongfang did not know that in a few years Provincial Highway 336 would be widened and all the houses on both sides of the road would be demolished.
No matter how well it is built now, you can only get compensation based on the building area in the future.
They don't care about the quality of your house.
At this time, there is no organization to conduct house value assessment.
Jiang Tian was secretly anxious when she saw that her mother was already discussing with Wang Chunjuan about who to hire to build the house and where to buy red bricks that were of good quality and cost-effective.
no!
We must find a way to stop Ms. Hu.
There is no need to build this house too well!
After all, it will be demolished in a few years.
No matter how much money you spend, you will still have to pay compensation based on the building area.
Jiang Tian was secretly getting anxious, but unexpectedly, this difficult problem was solved by the lovely Ms. Wang Chunjuan with just a few words.
When Wang Chunjuan heard that her younger sister wanted to spend more money to build a better storefront, she immediately rolled her eyes.
"Fangfang, don't waste this money!"
Jiang Tian's eyes lit up.
how?
Could it be that Aunt Chunjuan knows the inside information that the provincial road is going to be widened?
Of course there is no inside information.
At this moment, everyone feels that the four-lane, two-way Provincial Highway 336 is spacious enough.
The provincial road was not widened until a few years later, when there were too many vehicles passing through and traffic jams were common. In addition, the original asphalt road was bumpy, so the decision was made to widen it.
By the way, let's make this main road, which represents the provincial capital, more beautiful.
Wang Chunjuan opposed Hu Qiongfang's building the storefront too well because in the past two years some people had already started building buildings along the provincial road.
"You've spent all your money on a storefront now. What will happen to your house in a few years when everyone starts building high-rise buildings?"
"I'm not saying that your Chengcheng will have to get married in the future, right?"
"I think whoever gets married in the future will definitely want a building. Fangfang, you should save some money. It's good enough to use the storefront, and you have to save it for building a building later."
Hu Qiongfang nodded, convinced by this powerful reason.
Jiang Tian: “…”
Aunt is worthy of being Aunt!
