Chapter 68 Trouble coming
It will take some time for the house to be signed, transferred to decoration, and finally moved in, so during this period, the two brothers still have to live in apartments in the Lower City. As for whether the house will be returned to the urban construction department in the Lower City, he has not made up his mind yet.
In the real estate industry in mid-city, it encountered huge failures in the low-city area. Of course, this may also be a policy arrangement. When people in the low-city area need a house, they only need to write a report and select the house type and location after approval. The city department will arrange new rooms for the applicant, and the applicant does not even need to pay a penny in advance.
Of course, in the week after this, applicants will need to pay a fee for use and construction on time. The bill will last for fifteen years. After fifteen years, the construction fee will be cancelled, leaving only the usage fee, and then last for another fifteen years, which will only require less than one-quarter of the daily maintenance costs in Ghana.
So for people in the Lower City, houses are not valuable. They are not worried about not having enough houses to live in, but only worry about weekly bills.
Water resource usage fees (weekly), electricity resource usage fees (weekly), steam usage fees (weekly), social public resource usage fees (weekly), public resource construction fees (weekly), various house expenses (weekly), social insurance bills (monthly)..
The settlement day on Tuesdays every week is definitely a nightmare for most people in the Lower City. The cost of at least 8100 or 100 or 200 yuan makes many families in the Lower City not optimistic. Most families do not have much savings. Even if there is, they should be used to deal with some possible emergencies.
Fortunately, people don’t need to pay for their meals. If they don’t care about the taste and taste of those cakes, they don’t need to pay any expenses to fill their stomachs. Recently, the situation has also undergone some great improvements. The weekly relief products are not only bagged, wet and soft cakes, but also a kind of cake soup and baked dried cakes.
These things greatly improved the monotony and boring food in the lives of the people in the Xiacheng District, allowing them to have diverse choices in their diet. Steam Daily also opened three columns for this.
Although some people think that the heat of dry cakes is not enough, just like a bake that has been exposed to the sun for an afternoon. It seems to be dry outside, but it is still sweet inside. However, this policy still has the support of many people - they finally don’t need to turn soft cakes into baba soup or dried cakes by hand, saving time and some expenses.
It is precisely because of various problems that houses in the Lower City are not easy to sell. Most people will apply for recycling when they do not need them. Because they are all prefabricated buildings, a certain house can be directly extracted from the overall building through the engineering rail car and filled with a fully enclosed filling body to ensure safety.
After the urban construction department recycles the house, the homeowner can stop paying all bills related to the house, accounting for about 60% of the weekly fees.
This is also the main reason why many people choose to recycle, and they no longer need to face these bills.
The two of them rode through the bridge in a car, returned to the gray and depressing Lower Town from the sunny world of hope, and walked on the street, with apartment buildings like cliffs on both sides covering the sky and leaving only a dark sky above their heads.
Walking here, there is an indescribable sense of insignificance that question everyone's heart and makes people unable to raise their heads.
I returned home safely. Too many things happened during this period. Both of them were particularly moved at this time, and they were shocked by something that had happened.
Charlie changed into an apron and started making supper. Two cheap steaks were placed on an electric baking tray. The beef was screaming in some cooking oil that had no brand and was a relief product. The unique aroma of meat began to rise, and the whole room was filled with an appetite-giving smell.
"I think I'm a little hungry..." Shire sat at the edge of the table, tilting his head, watching the beef in the baking tray that gradually turned white and darker. This is what humans should eat.
He took advantage of Xia Li's inattention and threw all the babes in the house into the trash can, otherwise she would definitely make a babe soup for him to drink.
Charlie looked back at Charlie, smiled and turned around, cutting a whole piece of steak into four pieces, which made it easier to fry the steak into what she wanted. The main reason was that it was too thick and too big, the edges had begun to brown, but the center was not too hot.
After waiting for about three or four minutes, four large pieces of steak were placed in front of Charles. "I fry some mushrooms by the way. If you don't like it, put them aside. I'll eat it later..." Charles smiled and brought another plate of beef and placed opposite Charles, but the portion was only half that of Charles.
Girls don’t have much appetite, of course, it’s more likely to be for their figure. There are not fat people in the lower city. In fact, the nutritional content of the daba meal is very rich, but the taste is not so good. If you eat too much and lack exercise, you will eventually gain weight as a ball, and there are many in the school.
"Did you tell me to that... Luo Dali that we are going to the middle city? You shouldn't give someone such a name..." Xia Li smiled secretly, "This is very rude, brother."
"Also, what does Luo Dali mean?"
Charles couldn't help but smile, and he swallowed the beef in his mouth, "Luo is her surname, Dali represents strength, this is foreign language, I am just praising her!"
Charlie showed an enlightened expression appropriately, "You are really knowledgeable and know foreign language!"
Most people will never leave the city where they were born in their entire lives, and a small number of people have the opportunity to go to other cities. The price of airships is enough to make many people desperate.
Then going abroad is even more of a luxury, of course this is still for ordinary people.
Charles smiled, picked up the knife and fork and prepared to continue dining. At this moment, the doorbell rang.
The brother and sister looked at each other, and Charles stood up. He wiped some oil stains on his lips, took a knife from the cabinet counter and grabbed it back, and walked to the door.
He saw a shadow outside through the cat's eyes that had been blocked by oil. He asked casually, "Who is there?"
A familiar voice immediately came from outside the door.
"It's me, Gloria."
Charles opened a crack in the door and watched the girl standing outside the door in her school uniform, lowering her head slightly, her face was a little rosy, and her eyes were a little drunk. She might have drunk some wine.
He looked back at the time. It was already 7:50 pm, and there were only ten minutes left before eight o'clock.
The nights in the Lower City are bounded by eight o'clock, which is a conventional rule. Honest people will not go out after eight o'clock, and those who go out after eight o'clock will not be good people, at least not honest people.
