Chapter 122: Plans to Rent the Apartments

Although Yun Lili was very unhappy with her daughter calling other people her parents and did not recognize her own parents, she still had to admit that her daughter was very well taken care of.

Just look at her daughter’s small round face, clothes, dolls, and coloring books.

All these things were brought out once Yun Lili and her husband came back. Although she thought that Su Danhong was showing off, it really meant that her family’s orchard had made a lot of money this year, and that all these things were genuine.

These things were all good quality. All the clothes didn’t cost more than 10 or 20 yuan, and the price would not go down since they were the most popular style this year. They were common in Jiangshui City. The toys and food over there were also top-notch.

This year, she and Jianwen didn’t send much money back. They just thought that their daughter would not eat that much food. How could they expect their daughter to be raised so well?

Additionally, if they didn’t take their daughter with them, they would be free to make more money…

Yun Lili frowned with indecision. ꜱᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴛʜᴇ ᴛʀᴀɴꜱʟᴀᴛᴏʀ ᴀɴᴅ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴏɴ ꜰᴏxᴀʜᴏʟɪᴄ.ᴄᴏᴍ

“After eating, I want to find my brother.”

Outside, her daughter was talking to her father. She was telling him that her younger brother knew who people were without speaking. Renren was younger than her. They had a good relationship. If Yan’er had anything to eat, she would think about sharing it with her younger brother.

Of course, her brother was also very affectionate and willing to give her a taste of his food. Meanwhile, Xiaozhen, Xiaoyu and Hou Wazi couldn’t even think about taking a bite of his food.

“Okay, I’ll take you to your brother after breakfast,” Ji Jianwen said.

Yan’er nodded happily and then went to brush her teeth. She had begun to brush her teeth. Su Danhong taught her. Although Su Danhong doted on her, she never spoiled her. This was the same for Renren. Once she was three years old and had teeth, she could brush her own teeth.

When Ji Jianwen saw that his daughter wanted to brush her teeth, he was pretty astonished. The father and daughter went to brush their teeth. Her daughter also brushed her teeth in a neat manner. It was unnecessary for him to say more.

“Mother, third sister-in-law taught my daughter so well.” Ji Jianwen finished brushing his teeth and smiled at Mother Ji.

Mother Ji said, “She did. Don’t complain. Remember to go and visit your third brother later.”

“Okay.” Ji Jianwen agreed.

During breakfast, Yan’er was not very happy with her food, but she didn’t say anything. She was still obedient.

“She isn’t used to it. Her third aunt cooks lean meat and lily seed congee in the morning. Sometimes it’s pork and sesame congee, or sometimes it’s egg and lean meat congee. Plain congee is rare,” Mother Ji said.

“It’s a meal though.” Ji Jianwen smiled and said to his daughter, “I’ll ask your mother to cook you lean meat congee tomorrow, okay?”

“Okay.” Yan’er nodded.

After the father and daughter had finished eating, they went to his third brother’s place. Renren had not seen his sister all night. He missed her. When he saw her, he called out “sister”. He was very happy.

“Younger brother.” Yan’er was also very happy. She broke away from Ji Jianwen’s arms and ran over.

“Have you eaten yet?” Ji Jianyun asked.

“We have.” Ji Jianwen smiled and replied.

“How much did Yan’er eat?” Su Danhong asked. ꜱᴜᴘᴘᴏʀᴛ ᴛʜᴇ ᴛʀᴀɴꜱʟᴀᴛᴏʀ ᴀɴᴅ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴏɴ ꜰᴏxᴀʜᴏʟɪᴄ.ᴄᴏᴍ

“I ate one bowl.” Yan’er looked at her like she had been mistreated.

Su Danhong smiled and went in to get a bowl. She scooped half a bowl of egg and lean meat congee for her and said to Ji Jianwen, “Yan’er has a big appetite. She is not full from one bowl. Fourth brother-in-law, please feed her some more.”

“Okay.” When Ji Jianwen saw his daughter’s eyes staring at him, he forced a laugh and fed her.

As expected, her daughter was very satisfied with the congee, and obviously liked it better.

Ji Jianwen talked to his third brother about this year’s income from the orchard.

Ji Jianyun smiled. “This year the operation has been good, and the overall income is okay.”

Ji Jianwen said, “If you can, you should go to the city and buy an apartment. Then keep it for Renren and his family in the future.”

His third brother’s truck had been bought. This truck was worth as much as an apartment. It’s obvious that they were making profit. If they easily made so much every year, then he would be happy for his third brother. But he was sure that everyone would copy the orchard when they saw that it was selling well.

When there were more orchards, the fruit price would definitely come down. It was not a guaranteed income.

Moreover, housing prices this year have been rising. In the latter part of the year, it has been slowly increasing, and one square meter was almost 35 yuan. When he bought it, it was only in the 20s. The increase was really a lot.

Even though it was a slow increase, it was still an increase. With the reform and the country opening up, the big cities on the outskirts were becoming busier. He could see that it was necessary for the housing price to rise in the future, and even if it did not rise, it would certainly not fall with the increasing population. If Ji Jianyun had the money, he could buy one apartment. This was much better than planting trees in the orchard all the time, and also had more insurance.

But it was expensive. Now, if an apartment was bought, the small one would cost about 3,000 yuan, the medium one would cost almost 4,000 yuan, and the large one would be really expensive. It could be bought for 5,000 or 6,000 yuan.

For example, the price of an apartment in the high-end community next to the high school in Jiangshui city was around this price.

But what Ji Jianwen didn’t know was that Su Danhong had already bought an apartment in that community, and it was more than 100 square meters. When she bought it, it was more than 2,000, but now it has indeed risen to 5,000 or 6,000. Sister Hong had told her about it when she came to see her a few days ago.

When Su Danhong went to buy it, there were not that many people in the community. Now it was full of people. Sister Hong asked her if she wanted to rent out the apartment. With such a large apartment, she could get ten yuan for one month’s rent.

Although it wasn’t a huge profit, those who could live in that community had met certain conditions and they would also be able to afford it.

For Su Danhong, she considered that ten yuan a month to be a decent amount. However, she did not pay much attention to this money because she was not competitive. More importantly, she was not in Jiangshui City, so it would be a problem to collect rent.

When Ji Jianwen went back, Su Danhong talked to Ji Jianyun about it.

Ji Jianyun said, “Then wait until we have more money next year, and then we can buy an apartment over there. If we can’t live there, we can rent it out and ask Jianwen to help us collect the rent.”

It’s not ideal to leave the apartment empty. He also thought that it was a good idea to rent it out.

“Then we will do as you say.” Su Danhong smiled.

“What about the one in the college town?” Ji Jianyun asked her.

“The apartment over there can also be rented out, but we won’t ask for payment every month. We will collect the rent one year in advance. Of course, we also need a three month safety deposit. When we rent out our apartment, we can’t let them change anything about it. We must make it clear. The apartment in Jiangshui City should have the same rules,” Su Danhong replied.

Truthfully, she didn’t want to rent it. What if she rented it to bad tenants? However, she shouldn’t give up out of fear. Leaving it empty was also a problem, so they should rent it out. The deposit was necessary. When the tenants leave in the future, as long as the apartment’s conditions were good, the deposit would be returned. If there were any mishaps, then the deposit would be kept.

In addition, the rent from the three apartments could end up being a few hundred yuan a year, which was actually quite good.
