Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 2130 Do you want to buy a house?

After leaving the South African media firm, I just got into the car and was about to go back.

"Grandpa, grandpa, I'm going to the zoo!"

The little guy Liu Jing clamored to go to the zoo to see animals.

"Okay, let's go see the animals."

Liu Jin naturally agreed. He was very strict with his son, but he loved his grandson very much.

Get in the car and go straight to Daming Royal Zoo in Xincheng, South District of Beijing.

The Daming Royal Zoo is the property under Zhu Houzhao's command. At the beginning, he liked all kinds of beasts, exotic animals, exotic flowers and plants, and so on. He specially collected many animals, flowers, plants and plants from all over the world to the capital.

Liu Jin felt that there was nothing wrong with liking ferocious beasts, the key was how to make use of it.

So at that time, it was also suggested that Zhu Houzhao build such an animal, which specially collects rare animals, exotic flowers and plants from all over the world, and then opens it to the outside world.

Over the years, the scale of Daming Royal Zoo in Beijing is getting bigger and bigger. There are not only all kinds of rare animals from all over the world, but also all kinds of exotic flowers and plants from all over the world.

The Daming Royal Zoo has already become an important tourist destination in the capital, and almost all tourists who come to the capital will definitely go to the zoo to have a look.

Looking at animals, flowers and plants from all over the world, common knowledge is very helpful for broadening your horizons.

As for the Daming Royal Zoo, it also makes a lot of money by selling tickets, selling dolls, souvenirs, catering, etc. It can be said to serve multiple purposes.

On the one hand, Zhu Houzhao's playfulness is satisfied, and he will not be opposed by courtiers, because this zoo is open to everyone, and everyone can go and see it.

On the other hand, it also broadens the horizons of Daming people. Many animals have only been heard of, but have never been seen. However, in the zoo, you can see all kinds of animals from all over the world, which increases the Ming people’s horizons. Knowledge and vision also played a certain role in promoting the people of Ming Dynasty to go to the world.

In the end, it can also add an income to Zhu Houzhao's internal funds.

Don't underestimate this zoo, aside from all kinds of expenses, this zoo can bring Zhu Houzhao millions of taels of income every year.

As a result, many businessmen saw the business opportunities and set up zoos in Tianjin, Songhu and other big cities to make a profit.

Today is the weekend, and there are many times more people in the zoo than usual, it can be described as a sea of ​​people.

Tickets in the zoo are not expensive, 30 renminbi for adults and 10 renminbi for children. At the beginning, Zhu Houzhao didn't think about making money from this, so the ticket price was set very cheap.

But it is also because of the cheap price, so children in the capital like to come to the zoo on weekends. In order to cater to children, the zoo has specially built a children's amusement park, which has various amusements. The project is still free, unlike many such places in later generations, where you have to buy tickets separately to enter, which is cheating.

"Gorilla! Gorilla!"

Liu Jin took Liu Jing to play inside. Liu Jing was also very happy to see all kinds of animals. When he saw the gorilla from Africa, the little guy followed the orangutan in style.

"Woo~woo!"

Outside the iron cage, many children are imitating the orangutan to walk, and there are adults beside them, watching one by one.

Because there are no mobile phones in this era, it is inevitable for everyone to get to know each other and chat with each other when they are standing, while Liu Jin silently chooses to listen quietly from the sidelines.

Sometimes if you want to understand the people's livelihood, you can't see much real things in the court. Only when you really get close to the people can you hear the aspirations of the people.

"The housing prices in this capital city have risen again."

"House prices have risen again? By how much?"

"The newly opened real estate in the new city of the southern district now costs more than 4000 taels of silver, even in remote areas far away. As for the core area, it is now less than 8000 taels of silver. Don't even think about it. think."

"Oh my God, the price in this suburb is 4000 taels, but the price in this core area is 8000 taels. This increase is too ridiculous. Who can afford it?"

"That's right, the house price has gone up too much. I remember that Shuxiangyuan, which was first opened by Jingcheng Real Estate, could buy a set for more than 100 taels. It cost a few hundred taels. You can buy a small yard."

"My lord, that happened nearly 30 years ago. I have never heard of houses in the capital that cost hundreds of taels of silver. These are casually worth a few thousand taels of silver. Even in the east of the city, there are many The self-built houses on the land have already sold for three to four thousand."

"Yes, that was indeed decades ago. At that time, I was still in my twenties and came to the capital to work. The house price of several hundred taels of silver was sky-high."

"Master, did you buy a house at that time?"

"Yeah, if you bought a few houses at that time, you can send them out now, and you can sit and eat."

"I bought one set, but I don't have any extra money to buy a second set."

"I am an ordinary migrant worker. At the beginning of the month, I only had 3 taels of silver a month. At that time, I didn't want to buy a house. I just wanted to go back to my hometown and build a house."

"Because there is no way to pay in full when buying a house, and you need a loan. As you know, people of my age are most afraid of being in debt. At that time, people were afraid of this mortgage. If they did, they would not dare to sign it. Loan, I'm afraid that when I can't repay it, I'll end up selling my sons and daughters with interest."

"The reason why I bought a house was to study for my children. I gritted my teeth and bought it. At that time, I had to repay the mortgage of about 2 taels of silver a month."

"Then you have made a lot of money now, and now this house is worth a lot. Shuxiangyuan is one of the luxury houses in the southern city. Any house in it costs eight or nine thousand taels of silver."

"That's right, buying a house at that time was a big profit."

"Looking at it now, it is indeed profitable."

"Because in the few months after I bought the house, the house price continued to rise, and the new real estate was more expensive than the other. If I didn't buy it at that time, I wouldn't buy it later, because it was only a few years later. At that time, the house seems to have risen to thousands."

"However, when I bought a house, many of my relatives, friends, and fellow villagers said that I was stupid. I spent so much money to buy a house, and I had to repay the mortgage for [-] years. I spent my whole life in the house."

"They must all regret it now, right?"

"Isn't it? Now everyone regrets that they didn't follow me to buy a house at the beginning, and they all regret it. Later, the house price is getting higher and higher, so they dare not buy it."

"Master, have you paid off your mortgage?"

"No, it's still being paid now, and it will be paid off next year."

"Tsk tsk, the monthly mortgage payment is less than 2 taels of silver, which is too easy."

"Looking at it now, it is of course very easy. In this capital, you can find a job casually, and there is no one to do it without more than a dozen taels of silver."

"But at that time, the mortgage was a huge mountain. My wife and I had to work hard every month without daring to rest for a moment. This work lasted for nearly 30 years, and this time has passed So fast."

"It's still a good time, sir. The two couples can pay the down payment after saving money after working for a year or two, and the pressure on the remaining monthly payments is much less."

"It's not like we are now. The price can be easily increased by several thousand taels. It is impossible to even think about it. The monthly payment pressure is very high."

"I have a colleague who managed to get the down payment together at home. It means paying back the monthly payment of 20 taels of silver. The husband and wife work hard every day, so they are afraid that they will not be able to make the monthly payment. Well, it’s very frugal.”

"Let me see, don't buy this house. It's too expensive. The houses in the capital are not for ordinary people, but for rich people."

"This life is only a few decades, and it will take [-] years to pay for the mortgage. The pressure is too great, and I live frugally. It's better to eat, drink, have fun, and live happily."

"What you said makes sense. Why do you have to work so hard for that cement box? It's better to build a small building in your hometown to live comfortably."

"You can't say anything, some things have to be viewed from two sides."

"Whether you want to buy a house or not, in fact, it is very difficult to keep the money, especially you young people, unlike us at that time, who have lived through hard times, and the money in your hands is tightly grasped. Today's young people are eating, drinking and having fun, buying and buying clothes, and they don't want them after wearing them a few times."

"Eat well, wear well, and buy motorcycles, cars, etc. These are all places where money is spent, and the money in my hand is slowly disappearing."

"If you buy a house here, the money is equivalent to being saved on the house. When you get old, at least you will have a house for your children and grandchildren."

"Furthermore, no one knows whether the house prices in this capital city will continue to rise. Like this old man, if he thought the house was expensive and didn't sell it, he would probably regret it now."

"The current pressure is also a kind of motivation. People in the trend continue to work hard and work hard to make more money."

"What you said is also reasonable. Young people nowadays are too good at enjoying themselves. The same is true for my sons who are ineffective. None of them work hard. They just want to get rich and can't afford a house on their own. , everyone is staring at the house in my hand, alas!"

"Whether you want to buy this house or not depends on your own situation. In fact, it's nothing if you don't buy a house. Now that our Ming Dynasty is extremely powerful, we don't have to stay in the capital. Migrating to the outside of the customs or overseas, we can live in style. "

"That's right, there's no need to die in the capital."
