Return To 1977 Chapter 869: House
lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!
It is true that every level has its own troubles.
Bian Jiangong’s worry is naturally the house.
But to be honest, his personal conditions are pretty good.
There are three small rooms in the house, and after all, he still has a small room.
If we really start from objective facts, the house issue is actually a long-term, common problem faced by the majority of people in the capital. There are too many people whose conditions are far worse than his.
According to statistics, in 1978, the per capita living area of urban residents in my country was only 6.7 square meters.
Houseless households and crowded households accounted for more than 40% at that time.
So from this time on, the housing problem has become a serious social issue.
Although the country has started to solve the housing problem through various methods since 1979, the construction has not been as fast as the demand.
Faced with the cadres who were transferred, decentralized, and repatriated during the "movement" and the generation of educated youth from the population explosion who are returning to the city, no matter how many houses there are, it is not enough.
Even if forced, the government has come up with emergency measures such as "connection, promotion and expansion".
Even in courtyards and on the streets, spontaneous private construction has become a common phenomenon.
But by 1983, the per capita living area in Beijing was still in a serious situation, with no improvement.
It even decreased instead of increasing, from 6.7 square meters to 4.74 square meters.
Perhaps for today's young people, most of them feel that it is a lifelong dream to be self-reliant and own a house of their own in a first-tier city.
I feel like I have to bear the high mortgage loan for a house for at least ten years, or at most decades.
Most likely, after realizing this dream, you will find that you have gray hair and a family full of children and grandchildren, which is a bit unworthy.
As a result, many people will envy their parents and miss the era when the government was in charge of allocating housing.
But little did they know that the situation their parents faced back then was much more difficult than it was for them.
No matter how difficult this dream is, at least there is a way to realize it today.
To buy a house with a loan, people can at least live in it first.
In the standard planned economic system back then, there was no other way except to rely on units to allocate housing and leaders to be merciful.
Such a situation almost makes everyone despair, regardless of whether they have a good job or not.
Nowadays, people nowadays pay more attention to the economic value of a house when they need a house. At least it is relatively easy to find a place to sleep by yourself.
But that generation did not view the house as a property that could increase in value, nor as a condition for marrying a wife, nor as an expectation of superior living conditions.
Completely pitiful to the simplest need for survival.
Thousands of families are in the dilemma of having three generations of old and young living together, parents and children living in the same room, and brothers and sisters living in the same room. They just long for a space that can accommodate several bodies.
Therefore, many people choose a lifelong partner for the sake of a house, and choose a job they don't like for the sake of a house.
Even many people who finally returned to the city were forced to take the initiative to move to remote mountainous areas.
This is tantamount to giving up one's own future and life.
But that's not all.
Even people who are able to split houses don't know how to nourish them.
Because first of all, the state has strict regulations on the living area of employees.
The standard for ordinary employees is a first-class residence, with an average construction area of only 40 to 45 square meters per unit.
The standard for second-category housing is at the county and department levels and above, with an area of 60 to 70 square meters.
Secondly, most units are unable to build their own houses.
In most cases, old buildings are relocated under the name of the unit to meet the needs of employees.
In terms of housing quality, the best ones are tube buildings and simple buildings, followed by bungalows, row houses, or houses for other purposes.
So even these lucky ones.
In the living situation, we still have to endure the inconveniences of cramped space, lack of privacy, difficulty in going to the toilet, and difficulty in cooking.
In fact, many people today believe that local residents in first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou have caught up with the good era of rapid development of the real estate industry.
Basically, they don’t need to do anything, and they all become “rent-eating” landlords, almost all of them being fed by outsiders.
This kind of thinking is even more self-righteous and overgeneralizing.
Because the real situation is that only the farmers who originally lived in the suburbs of Beijing and were later relocated due to urban expansion have truly enjoyed this benefit.
As for the real old residents of first-tier cities, except for those whose ancestors originally owned multiple properties and were able to successfully get them back.
It is difficult to profit from the surge in real estate values.
The vast majority of people who stay in the city are still trapped in a corner of the city center.
Don’t even look at the price alone. It’s scary. It’s in a good location and in a school district, but no one dares to sell it.
Because regardless of whether they enjoy the housing allocation benefits or not, the per capita area is too small and they are used for self-occupation, so they are restricted.
If you sell your house, will you stop living? Where will I live next?
So these people are only nominally rich, and all they have is wealth that cannot be realized.
It is nothing but looking at the high-rise buildings and the lives of poor people living in narrow spaces.
Their real living conditions are no better than those of the newly arrived foreign population.
This proves two truths. Life is often about looking at the heights of other mountains, and everyone only sees the good of others.
Another thing is that history is cyclical.
No one can avoid some difficulties, some problems will never be changed, and we will always encounter them without changing the social class.
Okay, now we have to go back and talk about Bian Jiangong.
Based on the normal situation at this moment, even if he can make money, this problem will not be solved.
Who said he was just a taxi driver?
But he had a neighbor like Hong Yanwu, which became his greatest luck, and naturally the problem was no longer a problem.
The most interesting thing is that speaking of luck, it is extremely lucky.
Because Hong Yanwu not only already had two or three director-level third-bedroom apartments with an area of 89 to 90 square meters in his hands, he was confident that solving this problem would be a piece of cake.
The most important thing is that this guy did this in his previous life.
In addition, don’t forget that before the big business of demolition and demolition was officially launched, Hong Yanwu also followed Gao Ming to deal with second-hand houses for a while.
Having heard and seen it, I have no idea what people in this industry did in the early days of reform and opening up.
When it comes to how to get a house these days, he is a real professional. What can be difficult for him?
He knows best that due to the transition from a planned economy to a commodity economy, there are different channels for investment in housing construction and different standards for housing allocation.
The real situation of housing in the capital is uneven.
Although ordinary people don’t have houses, officials have many houses that have been vacant for a long time.
Director Song is a typical representative of officials.
And these people have too many houses to live in, so some people think of exchanging these houses for money.
The rent is not worth mentioning. The best house is only 19 cents per square meter. This is the official price.
If it weren't for the high price he offered, Director Song's house would rather stay in ruins than rent it out.
In this way, the earliest housing transactions appeared since the reform and opening up.
