Helen, who came back from the interview, stood outside the house and waited for a while. After the second-hand goods recycling company left, she sighed and asked her father, "What have we lost this time?"
The old man standing on the yellow grass is her father.
Originally, the community also talked to them specifically. If they can't get the money to replace the lawn to replace the yellow lawn, the community company can lend them some of the money first.
In addition to those low-end and low-end communities in the federation, middle- and high-end communities have very strict requirements for residents. It does not mean that if you buy a house in a middle-end and high-end community, you are really a member of this community. , you have to follow the rules of the community, you are, or everyone will join forces to kick you out.
The appearance of the house, the vegetation in the yard and the lawn are the most basic requirements for the residents. You may not buy the house here, but you must abide by the rules here.
Some of the contents are written in the purchase contract, and some are re-signed when moving in. In short, people must abide by it.
But soon the community company stopped talking about it, because they found that more residents didn't have the funds to replace the lawn, and if the community service company advanced the money for a certain household, maybe others would also ask the community The company pays in advance, they themselves are about to go bankrupt, how can there be so much money to take care of everyone?
The main road entering the community from the main road now has yellow and withered lawns on both sides of the road. The image of the entire community has plummeted. Coupled with some signs with "sale" on the lawn, this used to belong to the mid-range. The community seemed particularly bleak.
The old man standing on the withered and yellow lawn smiled, "We just lost our washing machine and lawn mower..." His face was full of guilt, "Sorry, the new bill is coming soon, I have to Pay those bills, and those things we don't have much access to right now."
"I noticed that there is a laundry room and a coin-operated washing machine at the community service company. It's very close. We won't be too troublesome when doing laundry. As for the lawn...", the old man bowed his head and kicked the ground. The lawn, kicked up some dirt blocks, and couldn't find anything green here.
Originally this was a fairly wealthy family, but the sudden economic recession directly dragged down the family. When they barely paid for Helen University tuition, the outbreak of the recession made them directly lose the ability to deal with family risks.
With successive job losses and the need for medication for their youngest daughter, they have replaced weekly physiotherapy in the hospital by a specialist doctor with Helen at home, but their lives have not improved in any way.
Continuous selling of properties has almost become the only way for a family like this to survive now. TV always says that the economy has improved and factories have started, but some people seem to be missed by the good news.
When they can't find anything else to sell, they sell their house cheaply, perhaps for less than a third of the price they paid for the house.
Then they'll move to a not-so-good neighborhood, or simply downtown, find a way to rent a dole house, and huddle as a family in a cramped room waiting for the economic winter to end.
The sad, sad, and helpless situation has happened to countless people.
The old man was silent for a few seconds. He felt guilty, "I'm sorry!"
"It's not your fault." Helen walked over and hugged the old man, "Say something to be happy about, do you know Mr. Ten Billion?"
The two were talking and walked towards the room. As they walked, the old man said, "Of course, Mr. Lynch, the youngest Mr. Ten Billion, the TV has been covering him all this time, what's wrong with him?"
"I'm going for an interview!", Helen decided to talk about it. She just told her family that she was going to participate in an interview, but she didn't say where the interview was going. She felt that the chances were not too high, I hope the family will be happy and disappointed for a while.
But at this moment she realizes that she needs some good news to cheer up the family, so she chooses to say it, there is nothing more motivating to her family than attending an interview with Mr. Billion, even if it doesn't work out , it can't be a bad thing.
At least she did, which is an experience in itself and gives her resume a better look.
The old man suddenly became interested, "So what happened, did you get that job?"
Helen shook her head, "I don't know, but Mr. Lynch said he was very impressed by my interview, and he will consider me very much when he chooses!"
"This is really good news, I have to tell your mother, give us something to eat tonight!", the old man seemed very excited, his guilt for the family did not continue to affect him, maybe this incident There will be no further news, but at least the family will have a brief moment of relaxation and joy in this silent and depressed life.
Some beef appeared on the table during dinner, and Helen's mother introduced it a little, "We bought these together, and I got the best piece!".
This is not the only case of Helen's family in the community, Bopeyn has been hit harder than anywhere else in this financial disaster!
You must know that the main economic pillars in other places are industry, and a small amount of agriculture and animal husbandry, but the industries most people are engaged in in the city of Bupen are the financial industry and service industry, so financial disasters The impact of people like Penn was also greater and more immediate.
So a phenomenon similar to "group buying" also began to appear. The ladies in the community would pool money to buy ingredients in large packages, which are cheaper and have more weight without simple processing.
One person can't afford it, but a few people can afford it. Of course, it takes a certain amount of physical strength and eyesight to divide these ingredients in the end. Helen's mother is very satisfied with her victory today. She grabbed the fattest piece Meat.
This made Helen's father even more guilty. He could only laugh reluctantly, rubbing his uneasy hands back and forth under the dining table. He was laughing, but it made him more uncomfortable than crying.
Everything seems so good at the dinner table. It's like going back to a few years ago. Helen's parents are not unemployed. They have enough income to support Helen to go to college and have enough money to treat her young daughter's illness. , they never bothered about these things.
Just wait until next month and everything will work out.
Towards the end of dinner, Helen's sister asked a question, "Will you get the job?"
Everyone's eyes were focused on Helen almost at the same time, and for a moment, a heavy weight she had never felt pressed down on her shoulders.
She looked at her father, and the old man's eyes were filled with an indescribable color, despair, hope, and some contradictory things mixed together.
Helen nodded subconsciously, then nodded again forcefully, promising with words she didn't believe herself, "I will, I will!"
The brief and suffocating calm at the dining table was momentarily shattered by the laughter of the little girl, who probably didn't know how difficult it was, she just naively thought that everything would be ok, just Like it says on TV①.
After dinner, Helen's mother was clearing the table, and her father called her over, trying to say something, but in the end just smiled and said, "Don't push yourself too hard, we'll make it through the day! "
That night, Helen felt a weight, responsibility, and a sense of suffocation that she had never felt before.
They have nothing left to sell, maybe next time they will sell this house.
Early the next morning, Helen went to Lynch's residence, a house on the hillside near Inner Bay in Bupen, which is also the best location in Bupen.
With the bustling metropolis on one side and the ocean in the distance on the other, there is no better location than this, and of course its price is despairing.
Many locals occasionally or even often pass by here, but they are not qualified to enter in their entire lives, even as guests, they do not have such qualifications.
Money draws a line in the world. The inside of the line is heaven, and the outside of the line is hell.
Helen asked the doorman to see Mr. Lynch, but unfortunately, Mr. Lynch didn't seem to want to see her, which made her feel desperate.
If she doesn't get the job, what will she do, what will her family do, what will her sister do, and what will she do?
It's very confusing, and sometimes people are like this, and they may not have felt this way before a critical point in time.
But after this critical time point, the whole world suddenly became unfamiliar, and everything was overwhelmed and difficult to face.
She doesn't want to go home, because she has to face the disappointment of her family after returning, and she continues to look for opportunities outside, but unfortunately, in the current environment, most companies have no plans to recruit new employees, It is worthy of recognition that they can not cut a part.
That's it~IndoMTL.com~ After wasting a whole day, Helen finally had to bite the bullet and go home to share the depressing news with her family, who had no idea how she got out of the house of!
After a long psychological preparation, she opened the door of the house. The smell from the restaurant made her even more hesitant. This was originally prepared to celebrate that she could find a good job, but she Brought back bad news.
She walked into the living room with heavy steps, ready to tell everyone that she had let them down, but what she didn't expect was that she actually saw Lynch here.
Lynch is eating beef ribs, which her mother is best at. He is sitting on the edge of the table without any image, clutching the bones with his hands, gnawing hard, and a mouthful of grease.
Lying to see the girl, Lynch put down his bones and greeted the girl with a smile, "Hi!"
There was a crystal clear water in the girl's eyes, she was stunned for a second, "Hi..."
