How can I go back to the past?

Chapter 47: The Son of a Poor Family (Seeking Follow-up Reading)

Hu Kai has a girlfriend. Not only does he have to support himself, but he also has to support his girlfriend. Moreover, he and his girlfriend are already at the stage of discussing marriage.

It can be said that there are many places to spend money, such as house, car, betrothal gift, and buying things for girlfriend from time to time, which is very stressful.

"Don't worry! You're not the only one who hasn't finished it. You can tell from everyone's expressions." Li Le nodded towards his colleagues in the office.

Hu Kai turned his head and saw that all his colleagues had sad faces. He understood what was going on and felt relieved.

"Alas! There's nothing we can do! For children from poor families like us, if we don't work hard, we will never be able to make a name for ourselves in our lifetime." Hu Kai sighed with a wry smile.

Li Le curled his lips and said, "Children of a poor family? People like you and me can't be considered children of a poor family."

"Uh! What do you mean?" Hu Kai looked at Li Le and asked.

"It means literally, you may not know what a son of a poor family means, you should first look up what it means! Then tell me whether you are one or not."

Although he didn't understand why Li Le said that, Hu Kai still took out his mobile phone and searched on Baidu.

"Hiss! Damn it, we are really not from a poor family. In other words, we are not even from a poor family."

Not everyone can be called the son of a poor family. The poor family refers to a noble family that has fallen on hard times, and the son of a poor family is the son of a noble family that has fallen on hard times.

In addition, the poor family is also called a family of lower status or a commoner.

Ordinary people like them can't really be called children of poor families.

"Do you know what happened?" Li Le asked with a smile.

"I know. We are just common people. We can't even be called children of poor families."

Hearing Hu Kai's words, Li Le curled his lips again and said, "I guess you can't even be called a commoner."

"Go to hell! How come I can't be called a commoner?" Hu Kai said in a tone of dissatisfaction.

"Then do you know the conditions for becoming a commoner?" Li Le looked at Hu Kai with a smile.

"There are conditions for becoming a commoner?" Hu Kai was a little unconvinced.

"of course."

Li Le nodded and said, "Commoners are people who own houses and land. Do you have a house or land? How dare you call yourself a commoner?"

"Uh……"

"Are you kidding me? Can common people have such conditions?" Hu Kai obviously didn't believe it.

"If you don't believe me, check it out." Li Le pointed at Hu Kai's cell phone.

Hu Kai obviously didn't believe it, so he picked up his phone and started checking it, but his expression soon changed.

"Damn, it's true. Common people refer to ordinary people who own land and houses."

After saying that, he looked at Li Le and asked, "Then what does this belong to?"

Li Le looked Hu Kai up and down and said, "You! You can be called a refugee at best. Fortunately, you have a legitimate job now, otherwise you can only be called a gangster."

Refugees refer to the floating population who have no fixed place to live, which means they do not have their own house or land, but have a job.

If you don't even have a legitimate job, you're a hooligan.

"Damn, this is a murder!" Hu Kai was completely confused. He didn't expect that he would become a refugee.

"What about you? Aren't you the same as me?" Li Le shrugged and said, "I am different from you. I have land! And I have two acres of it. In addition, I have a house under my name."

What Li Le said was correct, and the house he was talking about was not the courtyard house he lives in now, but the one in his hometown.

When he was just admitted to university, his parents bought him a house in his hometown. Although it was just a house in a small county town, it was not too small.

As for the present, he can no longer be called a refugee, because he has a house in the imperial capital, and it is a courtyard house that many people want to buy but cannot.

Although they can only be considered commoners, they are better than refugees.

In addition, Li Le actually has two acres of land. His hometown is in the countryside. Basically everyone in the countryside has land. Although it’s not much, they will not starve.

Hu Kai is different. He is a farmer in the city. His family lives in the county town, but they are not city dwellers.

His family has no land and only has one house in the city, which is under his father's name, which means he has no house or land.

In fact, there are many people like him now. They are those who moved to the city later and have no formal jobs.

"Okay! You're awesome. I can't compare to you."

Although houses in county towns are cheap, at around four to five thousand yuan per square meter, in some good county towns, housing prices can even reach tens of thousands.

But even in the most ordinary county towns, the housing price is four to five thousand yuan per square meter, and a house of more than one hundred square meters costs five or six hundred thousand yuan.

Adding decoration and other things, the total cost may be 600,000 or 700,000 yuan. 700,000 or 800,000 yuan is normal.

He earns more than 10,000 yuan a month. After deducting social security and personal tax, plus rent and food, it is good enough if he can save 7,000 or 8,000 yuan a month.

In this case, you can't save 100,000 yuan in a year. If you want to buy a house in your hometown and renovate it, it will take at least six or seven years.

This is in addition to trying to prevent any unexpected events, such as your girlfriend wanting to buy you a bag or something else.

And this is just the house. There is also money to be spent on marriage, which is also a big expense. All in all, the cost is no less than buying a house.

Based on his current salary, it is estimated that even ten years of work would not be enough. You have to know that he has been working for more than four years now, and the money he earns is only enough to pay a down payment in his hometown.

In fact, this is very normal. Many people seem to earn a lot, but they just can't save money. Hu Kai has only been working for more than four years, and he can save enough for the down payment of a house in his hometown, which is already quite good.

"What's so great about me? I'm not as good as you! You can still save money, but my salary is basically enough for me to spend. I can't save a penny."

Li Le's family conditions cannot be said to be very good, but they are still pretty good. His parents have bought houses for the three brothers and sisters, which has solved their worries.

Besides, his family didn't need his money, so Li Le was willing to spend it. Including his internship, Li Le had worked for more than a year and saved only about 30,000 to 40,000 yuan.

This does not even include the pocket money his older brother and sister give him. Otherwise, he probably wouldn't even have enough to spend, let alone save money.

"But you have a house! I guess your parents have also prepared money for your wedding! But I can't do that! I'm thankful that my parents don't ask me for money." Hu Kai said helplessly.

“Isn’t it our duty to honor our parents?”

"That's what I should do! What I mean is, you have parents to help you, but I don't. I have to work hard for everything on my own."

"Well! It's really not easy for you."

Li Le knew a little about Hu Kai's family. After all, the two had a good relationship and would chat about family matters from time to time.

Hu Kai has two brothers. He has an older brother who has no education and can only do some manual labor and does not earn much money.
