264 Sister Chen advises Shen Jiaren not to buy a house

After hearing what Sister Chen said, Shen Jiaren could only reply awkwardly, "No, no, I'm just an ordinary educated youth who went to the countryside."

Sister Chen was curious, "You are an educated youth? That's not right. If you were an educated youth, why would you come to our place to work in the countryside? Do you have any connections in this place?"

Otherwise, why would they come to our remote place?

But you have a military dog, and it's airborne, so we all suspect you have a background. &34;

When Shen Jiaren heard Sister Chen say this, she suddenly remembered a sentence she had seen on the Internet before. If you parachute into a place and the other party thinks you have a background, but you actually have no background, then you have to remain silent. The more mysterious you are, the more cards you have. So what can you do?

Shen Jiaren forgot what she said at the end of this sentence, but the meaning was that if someone came to ask, or someone came to test your cards, you must not let the other party know your cards easily, otherwise it would be really miserable.

Shen Jiaren thought for a moment and said, "Well, I'm not sure about this. Anyway, I came to this place and that's it. I'm not sure about the details."

Although Shen Jiaren felt that this answer was not very good, she also felt that she did not reveal her trump card.

Sister Chen saw that Shen Jiaren said to keep half and the other half, and her answer was inconsistent. She guessed that she didn't want to say it. She thought she was an honest person, but she didn't expect that she had such a shady mind.

Seeing Sister Chen smiling at her, Shen Jiaren said awkwardly, "Sister Chen, what were you going to say just now?"

Seeing that Shen Jiaren was trying to change the subject and was also asking about the gossip she hadn't finished talking about, Sister Chen continued, "Actually, it's nothing. I just wanted to know who wants to buy a house. My relative has a house that he wants to sell, and I want to see if you've decided which one to buy?"

If you are not sure, you can go and see my relative's house for reference.

But if you are this person, I would not recommend you to buy it. Why buy a house at this time? You are just waiting for the unit to allocate houses. Look at the old employees in our unit, some of them have been allocated houses and live in dormitories.

Don’t buy it. Just live in the dormitory. Besides, you live in a single dormitory. The conditions are so good. What else do you want?

Don’t you know that many employees in our hospital live in single dormitories as couples, waiting for housing eligibility and for the company to provide them with houses?

You should also work hard and wait in line for housing allocation. Don't waste your time. &34;

Shen Jiaren didn't know how to thank Sister Chen for thinking so much about her, although she felt a little confused as to why she thought so much about herself.

Although I was very curious, I couldn't refuse the kindness shown to me.

Let’s just talk about the issue of buying a house. In this era, housing allocation by work units is indeed a welfare benefit, and work units can indeed be allocated houses. No one is thinking about buying a house, and everyone is waiting for the work unit to allocate houses. After all, why should you spend money to buy something that can be obtained for free?

But as a person living in the future, even if we know that the housing allocation system will be cancelled, the implementation of the policy is still some time away. Under the current circumstances, no one dares to say or believe that the housing allocation policy will be cancelled.

Moreover, at this time, most house transactions were conducted privately. Even if the house was purchased from the Housing Management Bureau, it was done secretly and privately for fear of being discovered by someone with ulterior motives. Reporting it was a capitalist style.

Shen Jiaren didn't know how to explain. She thought for a moment and replied, "Sister, I know you really care about me."
