Rebirth of the courtyard, the start is 80s

Chapter 443
After comforting and making arrangements for Ma Suqin, Cao Zhiqiang was about to leave the hospital and go straight to the airport.

Although there were still a few hours before his flight took off, the flight at this time was actually not accurate, and it was never wrong to go early.

In this era without personal computers and smartphones, staying at home is not much different from staying at the airport, both are boring.

At any rate, there are many newspapers, magazines, comics, and snacks such as melon seeds and peanuts at the airport. It’s actually quite good to wait there.

Of course, the main reason was that he had already checked out before coming to the hospital, and he couldn't check in at the Jinling Hotel at this time, unless he went through the procedures again, which was unnecessary at all.

Therefore, it is best to go to the airport early and wait.

However, as soon as Cao Zhiqiang walked out of Ma Suqin's ward, he met Lu Xiaowei, a female doctor standing beside the passing nurse's station.

This time, Dr. Lu did not wear a mask, so Cao Zhiqiang recognized him immediately.

"Huh, Doctor Lu?" Cao Zhiqiang opened his mouth in surprise, "Why are you here?"

Indeed, Lu Xiaowei is a doctor in the emergency department, and she is on the day shift. It is said that she should be on duty in the emergency room at this time, and should not appear in this high-ranking ward.

But she just showed up.

"Oh, that's right." Lu Xiaowei smiled immediately, "I'm worried about the condition of Ma Suqin's patient, so I took the time to come and have a look."

"Ah, that's it." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "That's fine, I won't delay you."

After finishing speaking, Cao Zhiqiang passed by Lu Xiaowei, ready to leave here.

"Wait!" Lu Xiaowei suddenly stopped Cao Zhiqiang.

Cao Zhiqiang stopped and turned around, looking at Lu Xiaowei suspiciously: "What's wrong, Doctor Lu, is there anything else?"

Lu Xiaowei was about to speak, then turned her head to look at the middle-aged female nurse at the nurse station who was smiling at the corner of her mouth, watching all this silently, so she walked up to Cao Zhiqiang in a few steps, and said to Cao Zhiqiang in a low voice: "This is not a place to talk, you and I come."

After finishing speaking, Lu Xiaowei passed Cao Zhiqiang and walked to a place in the corridor first.

Cao Zhiqiang frowned, but still followed Lu Xiaowei closely.

Soon, Lu Xiaowei took Cao Zhiqiang to the safe stairs.

In fact, the so-called safety stairs are the old stairs of the hospital.

Before the elevator renovation, this staircase was the main and only way to go up and down the stairs.

However, in [-], the hospital underwent some modernization, one of which was the installation of imported elevators.

Due to limited conditions, elevators are only equipped in the outpatient building and the high-ranking ward area, and there is no elevator in the general ward area.

The ward where Cao Zhiqiang is currently located is one of the places where elevators are installed, and since the elevator was installed, the original stairs are rarely used, after all, people's congresses are very lazy.

It can be said that, regardless of other things, at least in terms of elevator renovation, the hospitals in Jinling are ahead of the hospitals in the capital city. Many hospitals in the capital city do not have elevators yet.

But this is also normal. The capital is the capital after all, and things are always considered safe, and the pace of opening up is not so big.

On the contrary, some local cities, such as coastal open cities, and Jinling City, have more new things.

It’s like an elevator. It’s not a rare thing in Shanghai and other coastal cities, as well as Jinling City. On the contrary, in the capital, except for a few foreign-related restaurants that don’t accept ordinary people, most places don’t have elevators.

In short, for a high-ranking ward with an elevator, the original stairway is a place with relatively few people. In addition, this side is transparent up and down, with a clear view, and any outsider can see and hear it, so here Chatting is indeed more secretive and reassuring.

After arriving here, although the road was not long, Lu Xiaowei still took a few breaths and took a few deep breaths, obviously not tired, but a little nervous.

"Don't be nervous, Doctor Lu." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, "Although I'm going to the airport to wait for the plane, I'm not in a hurry. You can speak slowly if you have something to say."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xiaowei was taken aback, and asked subconsciously: "What, you are going to the airport to wait for the plane? You, you want to go back? Now?"

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "Actually, I should have gone back a long time ago, but I stayed here to deal with some things that were not finished here. Now that these things have been dealt with, I should go back sooner. There are a lot of things waiting for me over there."

Indeed, according to the original plan, Cao Zhiqiang should have gone back with the crew after the filming was finished, but because something happened in the middle, especially after learning about the situation of private goods carried by Yuhong Machinery Factory, in order to ensure that he would not leave here. No problem, he stayed on again, specifically to open up another way of making money for Director Wang, and of course for himself.

During Ma Suqin's hospitalization, Cao Zhiqiang not only focused on women, but also didn't just think about how to punish Ma Suqin's husband.

In fact, for Cao Zhiqiang, those things are just incidental things. What he really wants to do when he stays here is to contact the manufacturer and find the door.

For example, yesterday, Cao Zhiqiang paid for two sets of courtyard houses along the street with front rooms at his own expense next to the Xinjiekou department store here.

The two sets of courtyard houses are located in a good location, just south of Xinjiekou in the center of Jinling City, just a few steps away from Xinjiekou Department Store.

Moreover, these two sets of courtyard houses were originally neighbors who did small businesses. One was a tailor shop for custom-made clothes, and the other was a cloth shop that sold cloth and satin. The two continued to complement each other, and they happened to be relatives.

Just like the self-employed people who opened the door in this era, these two houses are also used for commercial and residential purposes, that is, the part along the street is transformed into a facade house, and the inside is a courtyard house.

This kind of house is a very common small business structure in Jinling City. It existed as early as the Republic of China and has a long history.

However, according to Cao Zhiqiang's estimation, these houses should not have much historical value and protection value.

Because according to his memory, the houses here seemed to be demolished and turned into big shopping malls. Probably, it seemed, it turned into a place called Oriental Mall.

However, in the 80s, even in Xinjiekou here, there were actually very few high-rise buildings, and most of them were residential buildings along the street for both commercial and residential purposes.

Even some of the residential buildings along the street still have some traces of war, which are said to be the traces left by the little devils when they committed crimes in Jinling City.

No matter what, although Xinjiekou is, even now, the central location of Jinling City, but in the central area, the real estate market has not risen, and the supply is basically oversupply, with more sales and less purchases. The house price is also the price of cabbage.

Of course, the price of cabbage is based on Cao Zhiqiang's point of view. For ordinary people, a house that costs [-] yuan is an astronomical figure.

You know, in [-], ten thousand yuan households were still absolutely synonymous with big money, a symbol of rich people, so the value of [-] yuan was quite impressive.

In fact, the house here was originally found by Li Youfu. He didn't expect to buy it, he only wanted to rent it, and what he wanted to rent was the almost dilapidated and smaller house next to it. He didn't want to rent a better mature shop here. .

It was Cao Zhiqiang who valued the good location here, and after several discussions with the shop owner, he agreed on the intention to buy with full capital.

In fact, the owners of these two stores didn't want to sell it, but Cao Zhiqiang gave too much.

Cao Zhiqiang said that if the two companies sell together, they will pay a total of [-] yuan, and they will divide it privately.

10 yuan, even if the two families split evenly, it would be [-] yuan for a set, which is actually much higher than the market price.

With this 5 yuan, I can't go anywhere. Even if I go to another place to open a door again, it's completely fine, and I can still have a lot left.

Anyway, most of their shops are old neighbors and repeat customers. It is not difficult to just say hello to those people and buy a house nearby.

As a result, the two of them immediately changed their faces, offering Cao Zhiqiang like a god of wealth, and asked to go through the transfer process immediately, for fear that Cao Zhiqiang would go back on his word.

Cao Zhiqiang would not regret it. After all, the two houses in such a good location, not to mention the big houses, are still next to each other, so they can be connected together.

According to preliminary calculations, the combined actual area of ​​the two houses is more than [-] square meters. If the yard is included, it will be a proper [-] square meters, which is only the area of ​​the first floor.

If you make a little modification, even if you only add a floor, that guy is definitely a plus.

Not to mention, if it is demolished in the future, it will be developed.

Wait, the demolition may not be developed. After all, it seems that the houses here were demolished earlier, and the compensation given is not outrageous.

It doesn't matter, the pattern must be open, and the thinking must be broad.

Why do you always think about being demolished and compensated?Have you never thought about developing and demolishing by yourself?

It seems that this place later belonged to Xinbest Group.

Well, it's just a Xinbest Group, they can do it, why can't I?
Of course, at present, Cao Zhiqiang is not capable of such a large-scale commercial real estate, but in the future, he will definitely be able to.

Well, if you really want to do commercial real estate, it’s not just here. Of course, the first choice is Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and then here.

So, for the time being, don't think too much about it, buy a few front-end properties in good locations here, build a chain of specialty stores first, establish a brand, and it won't be too late to develop slowly in the future.

In fact, those cheerful sellers only thought about returning customers, and didn't realize the importance of the location at all.

Don't look at the high price that Cao Zhiqiang gave, but considering the location of the two houses, the price is really not high at all.

Of course, in this period, there are not many who can spend 10 yuan to buy a house, at least not many in Jinling City.

In fact, in the early 80s, most of the people who were able to buy houses in China on a large scale were overseas Chinese from Hong Kong and Macao. Firstly, they were rich, and secondly, they also had the awareness of investing in real estate. Unfortunately, investing in real estate during this period also depends on the situation, not everyone can make money. .

If you have spare money and don't take out a loan, it's fine for long-term investment.

But if you want short-term investment, or even loan speculation, then the real estate here, at least for now, is really not a good investment product.

The reason is very simple. If there is no accident, the domestic housing prices, even in places like Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, have been in a long-term downturn and do not move. When the real estate market is truly market-oriented and vigorous, it must be the end of the 90s.

Of course, if you don't need money, you can do it with the mind of enclosing land in advance, especially if you are engaged in commercial real estate, this period is indeed good.

Not to mention anything else, if you run a brand store like Cao Zhiqiang's now, it's a very good business.

Because the brand store is actually an alternative sales department or small shopping mall. Thanks to the domestic situation at this time, the value that these small shopping malls with good locations can create is beyond what ordinary people can imagine.

Moreover, the era when these small shopping malls began to be popular is coming soon. It seems that after 90, self-employed businesses will bloom everywhere, and consumer goods such as clothing, shoes and hats will become popular until the end of the [-]s, and the profits of them can exceed half, and some even several Double the profit, it can be called stealing money.

It can be said that 90% of the self-employed in the [-]s made their fortunes by selling clothing and electronic products. The huge profits here are simply insane.

It wasn't until the end of the 90s that the profits of clothing, shoes, hats and electronic products dropped sharply, but that's all for later.

So from this point of view, the business of selling clothing, shoes and hats in the 80s was a real trendy business. During this period, as long as you were willing to endure hardships, pigs could fly. Whether it was wholesale or retail, you could make a lot of money.

Ordinary clothing can make money, let alone branded clothing with brand added value. As long as it is done well, it will definitely make a lot of money.

Compared with the future income, the purchase price of 10 yuan is nothing.

And at this time, only the scale of self-employed persons is restricted, but the number of real estate ownership is not limited, and of course there is no real estate tax.

So Cao Zhiqiang bought the house and leased it to a state-owned department store to be established in the future, and then opened a brand store in the form of a department store.

At the beginning, it mainly sells clothing, but in the future, it may not be possible to sell electrical appliances.

Wait for Lao Tzu to prepare the layout in advance, and Gome Suning will have to step aside for me in the future!
"Zhiqiang, Zhiqiang, I asked you something, why didn't you answer?"

The sudden questioning awakened Cao Zhiqiang who was flying away.

Looking at Lu Xiaowei who was pouting in front of him with some dissatisfaction, Cao Zhiqiang finally realized that he was chatting with Lu Xiaowei.

"Sorry, I was distracted just now." After apologizing casually, Cao Zhiqiang said, "Say it again, what did you just say?"

Lu Xiaowei sighed, and asked again: "I want to say, do you really want to leave right away? Can't you stay for a few more days?"

Cao Zhiqiang shook his head: "Of course not, I still have a lot of things waiting for me in the capital, and I have to do it. I have been procrastinating for a long time, and I have called over there to remind me. If I don't go back, there will be trouble there." .”

Lu Xiaowei lowered her head and bit her lips, while playing with the corner of her clothes, she said, "Then, will you come here again in the future?"

"It should be." Cao Zhiqiang thought for a while.

"Will you come here often?" Lu Xiaowei raised her head and asked.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult." Cao Zhiqiang shook his head. "My current base camp is in the capital. If it is Jinling, it may be difficult to come here often."

Lu Xiaowei sighed again, and then asked: "By the way, you seem to have a lot of connections and energy in the capital, right?"

Cao Zhiqiang was taken aback for a moment, then nodded and said, "Well, it's okay, many people are willing to save face, what, do you have something to do?"

Lu Xiaowei pursed her lips and said, "Damn, you, if you are really capable, can you help me transfer work?"

"Help you transfer work?" Cao Zhiqiang was taken aback, "Where are you going?"

"I want to work in a hospital in the capital." Lu Xiaowei raised her head and stared at Cao Zhiqiang and said, "It would be best if it was a hospital near your home."

Cao Zhiqiang frowned: "You are fine here, why do you want to go to the Beijing Hospital? The People's Hospital here is also very powerful. It may not be a good thing to transfer jobs at will."

"But I, I..." Speaking of this, Lu Xiaowei stomped her feet, "You, do you have to let me explain?"

Cao Zhiqiang had question marks all over his face: "What do you mean?"

Lu Xiaowei bit her lips again, then lowered her head and said, "I, I don't want to be separated from you, I want to be with you, so, if you can't come, just, transfer me away, to your place, in this case, I , we, we can be together."

Cao Zhiqiang blinked, and suddenly said: "Ah, you, you want to..."

"Oh, don't say it!" Lu Xiaowei quickly covered her face with her hands, "It's embarrassing, anyway, anyway, that's what it means, I, I, I care about you and want to be with you, you can figure it out."

After finishing speaking, Lu Xiaowei wanted to run away shyly.

After all, this was a confession, and it was indeed a bit embarrassing for her.

But soon, Lu Xiaowei who ran away a few steps came back again.

"You haven't answered me yet." Lu Xiaowei asked Cao Zhiqiang, "When will you transfer me to the hospital in Beijing?"

"This, this..." Cao Zhiqiang blinked, "This kind of thing needs to be discussed in the long run."

"I don't care." Lu Xiaowei pouted, "You have to be responsible to me anyway."

"Ah?" Cao Zhiqiang was stunned, "Responsible, what are you responsible for?"

"You, you!" Lu Xiaowei said a little angrily, "We, we have all walked together and held hands, you, you will not deny it?"

Cao Zhiqiang thought about it, indeed, they did take a walk together before, and even held hands, but this is nothing?

But on second thought, oh, I see.

Also, in this era, if unmarried men and women take a walk together and hold hands, it is actually equivalent to establishing a romantic relationship.

So in Lu Xiaowei's view, they walked back to the hospital together that night, and Cao Zhiqiang held her hand during the process, which was actually a tacit acquiescence to their relationship.

But the conscience of heaven and earth, what happened that time was just that Cao Zhiqiang felt that Lu Xiaowei was walking too slowly and slowly, and he was a little out of his mind. He was afraid that something would happen to her, and he didn't want to waste time, so he simply took her hand and walked.

Unexpectedly, she was misunderstood.

But at this time, if he explained that he didn't have that kind of thought, it would seem even more hurtful.

And strictly speaking, Lu Xiaowei looks good too, after all, she was printed in the same mold as Ding Qiunan.

In addition, Jinling is far away from the capital, and the multiple foreign houses seem to be good.

Now that I have too many lice, I don't have to worry about it, and it doesn't matter if I have one more woman.

Anyway, I'm not married, as long as the arrangements are made, this is a small problem.

Those leaders can have 140 or six mistresses, so I don't know where to go, it's drizzle!

Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly: "Well, Xiaowei, no matter how capable I am, I still can't control the medical system, so the matter of transfer has to be considered in the long run, but don't worry, Jinling is actually quite good.

For you, I am willing to make some investment in Jinling, and then I will come to see you often in the future.

Anyway, I always fly, and it doesn't take much time to fly from the capital to Jinling City, it only takes a few hours.

You can stay here with peace of mind and work with peace of mind.

In a few days, I will come back to see you when I finish dealing with it and I am free. "

"Really?" Lu Xiaowei asked, "You didn't lie to me?"

"Of course not." Cao Zhiqiang said, "Don't worry, when I come back next time, I promise to get you a good house to live in here, and you will have your own home in the future, and you won't have to live in a dormitory anymore."

Only then did Lu Xiaowei smile happily: "Okay, I'll wait for your news, you can come sooner!"

"Don't worry." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, "I won't keep you waiting."
