Chapter 688: Flying Half the Earth(1/2)
Huang Han advises everyone to buy a house, but he does not mean that he is willing to buy property in the United States.
Big houses in the United States have to pay real estate taxes, and each state is different. The cost of building a house is much higher than in Hong Kong and Shanghai.
Qin Shujie and Shen Xiaorong bought an apartment near Wall Street, and a big "home" in the suburbs was enough.
Huang Han didn't know the housing prices in the United States at this time, but knowing Shen Xiaorong's intelligence, she couldn't go wrong when she said it was a good deal.
Two hundred thousand U.S. dollars, which is about one million yuan based on the black market exchange rate. Shenzhen, which pioneered the development of commercial housing, the current housing price is about one thousand yuan per square meter.
Two hundred thousand dollars is enough to buy a thousand square meters of residential building in Shenzhen.
He asked: "Are you buying the kind of villa with a big swimming pool?"
"No, the villa with a swimming pool is too luxurious. It costs more than one million US dollars! How can we be so luxurious? We have to keep a low profile."
It turns out that houses in the United States are not cheap now! It seems that buying a house in the United States has the worst value for money at this time, and it is most cost-effective to go to Hong Kong.
Shen Xiaorong and Qin Shujie did not buy a luxury house, but an ordinary villa. Huang Han agreed very much and said:
"Yes! You are right. You can only use the swimming pool for one or two months a year, so why bother!"
"Although our house does not have a swimming pool, it does have a small garden, two master bedrooms, a secondary bedroom, and four guest rooms, all with independent bathrooms."
"Yeah! It's not that small anymore. It can accommodate more than a dozen people. I'm afraid the monthly cleaning fee will be quite a lot!"
"Geez... you even know this!"
"Of course I do. It seems like you and your aunt don't know how to do housework. How can you possibly clean the house by yourself?"
"Do you think we are lazy?"
"No, you two want to do big things, how can you compare with housewives!"
"Hey! Is what you said sarcastic? There is an old saying in China: "How can you sweep the world if you don't sweep one house?"
"Yo! You haven't forgotten the tradition after drinking foreign ink! It's amazing."
"I will never forget my roots, but I have never been able to do housework since I was a child, and I have always been bothered by it."
"Yeah! I understand, it's inappropriate to always touch the mop when playing the piano!"
"Why do I still think it's sarcastic!"
"Haha..., you are different, how could you possibly put on an apron and go around the pot?"
"How do you know it's impossible? People can change as long as it's worth it."
"Remember, no one in this world is worthy of you changing for him!"
"Giggle..., that's not necessarily the case!"
Unknowingly, the two of them chatted for nearly an hour. Huang Daozhou, Zhang Fangfen, and Xiaoqian only hung up the phone when they came back from the shower.
Huang Qian is very smart and loves to observe people's emotions. She touched the receiver of the phone and said with a smile:
"The phone is getting hot. You must have been on the phone with Sister Ronger just now!"
"It's her who called!"
"Why don't you let me say a few words too?"
"It's too late. You won't stop chattering. You won't be able to sleep for a long time."
"Did Sister Ronger invite us to the United States to celebrate the New Year?"
"Hey! You have such a good memory? I even forgot that this happened."
"Brother, this is very wrong of you!"
"What's wrong?"
"As a person, you must practice what you say. You can't go back on things you said a year ago!"
"You are already in the second semester of your third year of junior high school. It will take you half a month to go to the United States. Are you not afraid that your grades will fall?"
"I'm not afraid. I can carry my books with me and take planes and trains without affecting my reading."
Huang Qian is proud. She is the first in the third grade of the Experimental Middle School, and she has been the first for a long time.
Huang Qian's grades in the original trajectory were good, but with Huang Han's time travel, they were even better. Now the whole family believes in her learning ability and has never worried about her grades.
Zhang Fangfen asked: "Are you really planning to go to the United States after the winter vacation?"
Huang Han said: "It's not you, it's our family!"
Huang Daozhou shook his head and said: "I don't have time, I definitely can't go."
He has too many things going on at this time. This spring is crucial for "Full Energy Enterprise", and he has no time to go to the United States for such a long time.
This was expected by Huang Han, so he supported Huang Daozhou's decision and said: "It would be better if dad doesn't go. Mom, you should contact the public relations department of China-Hong Kong Industry tomorrow to handle the formalities."
Zhang Fangfen asked doubtfully: "Why would it be better if your father didn't go?"
"Our whole family is going to the United States. Will anyone guess that we are running away as a family?"
"Why should we escape? Who would guess like that?"
"People are different. Some people just like to speculate when they have nothing to do. Others like to make lies and confuse the public."
Huang Daozhou said: "Huang Han's concerns are right. Under the fields of melons and plums, people's words are formidable!
We are not ordinary people now, and we really need to pay attention to the impact.
It’s really better for me to stay at home and you and your three children to go there, lest anyone spread rumors and cause trouble, which would affect the stability of “Full Power Enterprise” and “Huamei Style”.”
Zhang Fangfen said: "Yes, you must guard against rumors. If you are at home, such rumors will be self-defeating!"
Huang Han applauded and said: "Mom, what you say now is all literary, and you look like a big cadre!"
"Haha! Really? Studying is really a workout."
"Going to see developed countries can broaden your horizons, and it can train you more than studying."
"Yeah! I know. I heard Zhang Xia talk about what she saw in Japan. Not only do I want to go to the United States, but I also want to visit Japanese clothing factories in the future."
"Then it's settled! Try to get a visa as soon as possible, and we'll fly to New York around the 24th of the twelfth lunar month."
Huang Daozhou asked: "How long does it take to fly across the Pacific Ocean and across the entire United States to the east coast of the United States?"
"Dad is not simple. He knows everything from astronomy to geography!"
Alas! Huang Han was actually a little reluctant to fly to the other half of the world for such a long time. He was really afraid that the plane would fall. He always regretted agreeing to Shen Xiaorong a year ago.
This time I decided to fly a long distance, and try to avoid flying halfway around the world in the future.
Seeing that Huang Han did not answer the question directly, Huang Daozhou smiled and said: "Actually, you have no idea how much time it will take, right?"
"I really don't know yet. I only know that there are no direct flights from Shanghai to the United States. I should fly to Tokyo, Japan and then transfer. I guess it will take a whole day."
Xiao Fang said: "It's only one day, so it's not a big deal. I heard that there are not only meals to eat but also movies to watch on the plane."
"Well! The conditions for international flights in developed countries cannot be bad."
On January 2nd, the Experimental Middle School, including all schools in the city, will have a holiday, except that the third graders and senior graders of the Experimental Middle School will have classes as usual.
In the morning, Huang Han's study group still came to Huang Han's house early to gather.
Liu Xiaoming, who is already in his senior year at No. 2 Middle School, has no pressure at all. He may have never felt any pressure in his life. It is his nature to love to play and be content.
He would always come to Huang Han's house to join in the fun whenever he could. He also liked to argue with Qian Aiguo and Wang Yu.
This time, several people were arguing about whether "Two Finger Zen" was a real Kung Fu.
That's because the popularity of the TV series "A Certain Deng Master" directly led to a surge in the hospital's orthopedic business.
The vast majority of people who come to the hospital are young people, basically suffering from sprained or fractured fingers.
Why? I imitated the TV series and wanted to poke the ground with two fingers and play handstand.
TV dramas at this time would not have subtitles to remind viewers that this is a dangerous move and should not be imitated.
How can a young man who has never done anything have the ability to discern?
Liu Xiaoming doesn't believe in the master, he doesn't believe in hunting cattle across mountains, and he doesn't believe that using kung fu can extinguish the fire in Daxinganling, but he believes in two-finger Zen.
Because the prototype of the protagonist is a "highly respected" master, a disciple of Shaolin Temple and the abbot of a certain temple.
Cheng Wenge, Qian Aiguo, Wang Yu, etc. have basically followed Huang Han these years. They have long accepted Huang Han's ideas and do not believe in this kind of kung fu.
However, Liu Xiaoming, who loves to play, specially looked for promotional materials about "A Certain Deng Master" and now he can speak clearly and clearly.
Qian Aiguo knew clearly that it was bragging but was unable to refute it. He was so anxious that he scratched his head and scratched his head.
He couldn't defeat Liu Xiaoming, so he asked Huang Han, who was tutoring Wang Huiling, for help. He asked: "Brother, tell me, is the two-finger meditation a real Kung Fu?"
Huang Han said without hesitation: "It must be fake. That "Master Deng" is a liar. He doesn't even know how to practice two-finger meditation. If he dares to compete with you, you can beat three of them by yourself!"
Liu Xiaoming was unconvinced and said: "How could the TV series broadcast on CCTV be fake?"
"The TV series is not a news broadcast, it just tells stories. Is Journey to the West also real?"
"What do you mean by this, "a certain lamp mage" is also a myth?"
"It's really a myth, but it's not that harmful, because everyone knows that it's a lie that Sun Monkey can do somersaults. I'm just afraid that the fake martial arts with all the lies will make young people believe it!"
