Chapter 631. Exorbitant house price
The current temperature in Hainan was around 23 degrees. A very comfortable temperature. Like one was soak in spring breeze.
Although Hainan at this time was still inferior to later generations, it was at its important time of development this year. It was also very lively.
Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai led Mi Mi off the boat and took in the lively scene of the port.
This year, the number of people wasn't too much. Still, it can be regarded as lively. Lin Qing He knew that there was be a lot of people watching on the sidelines this year. Starting next year, that was when actual number of hundreds of thousands of people coming here.
The family of three found a place to stay first and took a shower to wash off the smell of the sea on their bodies before going out to eat.

The family of three found a place to stay first and took a shower to wash off the smell of the sea on their bodies before going out to eat.
The sea surrounded all side. Naturally, seafood was abundant. Enormous conch with meat that are fresh and delicious. And the price was cheap. Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai both like it. Little Mi Mi ate a bowl of shrimp congee. The rest, she can't eat.
The boat ride was probably a bit tiring as the little girl fell asleep shortly after having her fill and laid in her dad's arm.
Zhou Qing Bai excessively doted her. He changed a position that was comfortable for his daughter and let her continue to sleep.
Lin Qing He was mostly done eating and said, "I'll hold her. You continue to eat."
Only then did Zhou Qing Bai pass his daughter to his wife. Then he cleared up the seafood on the table. 70% of the full table of food entered Zhou Qing Bai's stomach.
Lin Qing He had long known that he liked to eat seafood. Since the seafood here was really fresh, he opened up his stomach.
"With the way of you eat, when we go back, your weight will rise to two hundred jin again." Lin Qing He laughed on the way back to the hotel.
Zhou Qing Bai responded, "I will go out for a run tomorrow morning."
The child was tired. The adults were also exhausted. After taking a shower and eating, the whole body felt comfortable. At this time, they went back and rest first.
The rest can be left until after they wake up. Anyway, there was plenty of time. No rush.
The family reached around five o'clock in the evening. At half, little Mi Mi got up and ate a little shrimp dumplings before returning to sleep. They slept until the next morning.
Zhou Qing Bai went for a run. When he returned, Lin Qing He and Mi Mi were getting up, combing their hair, and getting dressed.
"I looked around and asked a few people whether the house prices are still low," Zhou Qing Bai told.
"How much?" Lin Qing He asked.
"More than thirteen hundred. The good location is fourteen to fifteen hundred." Zhou Qing Bai answered.
Have to say that this price was really expensive. How much was the current salary level? The wage level in the capital was the highest in the country, but it was only 100 or so yuan a month.
The price of one square meter was one thousand or so yuan. How can those who get salary save money to buy a square meter?
"Let's check it out later." Lin Qing He said.
So far, she hadn't planned to make a move. It was just that she was idle at home. Better to go outside and see if it was different from what she remembered.
Although they have a lot of money now and can make a lot of money every month, money can't be spent like this. After all, here was so far away from the capital. If they were going to do it, it need to be a decisive cut.
The kind that one didn't need them to come back after this trip. If not, don't make the transaction. This way, it can save the heart from worrying.
And instead of throwing the money here at this time, it was better to go to the capital city to take a loan and buy the land that her family Qing Bai liked.
But having a look around didn't hinder anything.
Zhou Qing Bai sweated from the running, so he took another bath. The family went out to eat seafood congee.
After eating, they started to look at the commercial houses in Hainan. The development here was rapid. These commercial houses were very beautiful.
For the aesthetics of people at the moment, this was indeed flawless.
"You can ask me if you two have any needs. I can answer your questions." A young man served them and said very politely.
"Hainan has developed rapidly this year. When were these properties built? When we came before, they weren't here." Lin Qing He opened her mouth.
"Then you may have came here much earlier. These are all brand-new houses built in the past two years. They are especially suitable for living. Especially our climate, which is evergreen all year round. Couldn't be any more suitable for living." This young man smilingly replied.
"We don't know whether to buy it yet. You are so enthusiastic. Not worried about wasting your words." Lin Qing He merrily said.
"You don't need to buy it. I feel Elder Brother and Elder Sister-in-law is wealthy. It's fine to treat it as making friends." The young man laughed.
"What's your name?" Zhou Qing Bai asked.
"My name is Lin Yuan." The young man nodded.
"That's a coincidence. I am also surnamed Lin. You can call me Elder Sister Lin." Lin Qing He said and introduced him to Zhou Qing Bai and their daughter.
The two sides were considered acquaintances. Lin Yuan spoke, "Is Elder Brother Zhou and Elder Sister Lin here for a trip?"
"It can be as a trip. We were surprised at the development of Hainan this year." Lin Qing He responded.
Lin Yuan had nothing to do with right now, so naturally he can talk more. He really can see that these two weren't moneyless kind.
Their aura indicated that. As he said, the wealthy kind.
He told them about the development of Hainan this year. Toward the end, he spoke: "Elder Brother, Elder Sister-in-law, want to buy? I think if you buy a house here, you will definitely not regret it. After all, the development is so good now. If I have money, I invest into a set."
"This set costs one hundred thousand. It's really not cheap." Lin Qing He replied.
Although her family's monthly income was more than 100,000 yuan, she didn't think it was cheap.
"It is a bit dear. But it will definitely be more expensive in the future." Lin Yuan stated.
"You are a local. You know Hainan best. We plan to stay here for a few days. Would you like to consider being our tour guide?" Lin Qing He asked.
"Elder Sister-in-law, I still have to go to work." Lin Yuan immediately uttered.
"How much the salary?" Zhou Qing Bai looked at him and asked.
"The salary is one hundred and twenty." Lin Yuan didn't know why this was suddenly asked. Still, he didn't hide it.
Naturally, the salary wasn't low. But for him, a married man with a wife and children to raise, it wasn't much. At least a house can't be afforded.
"This is one hundred yuan. You can ask for a week off and take us around." Lin Qing He took out one hundred yuan and gave it to him.
Lin Yuan didn’t expect this to happen. He looked at them. Finally, he gritted his teeth and pushed the money back, saying: “Elder Brother, Elder Sister-in-law came here to travel. It's a must for me to act as the tour guide. I don’t need the money. It just happens, I can be scheduled a vacation. Count my price for next month, seven days isn't a big deal."

I'm surprise LQH didn't buy land before.
ReplyDeleteBecause the law didn't allow it before this moment
DeleteThanks for the update..<3<3<3
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update!
ReplyDeleteHi Maggie, thanks for the chapter as always. Just wanna mention that I noticed in this chapter and some of the earlier ones that house prices are mentioned as "fourteen to fifteen hundred" but this doesnt make sense as 1400 and 1500 are dirt cheap for LQH, so i presume that the actual number is "fourteen to fifteen thousand".
ReplyDeleteIt is right. The characters are referring to the price per sq meter.
