The Sihai Club has guest rooms.

Miss Vera didn't want to move directly into Su Yehao's house, but moving here was no problem. She had already agreed to come to the opening ceremony tomorrow night, so she wouldn't have to run back and forth.

So after the spa massage, she went to the hotel to get her luggage.

It was said that it was only the size of a medium-sized suitcase, so Su Yehao didn't accompany her, but only asked the driver to help.

He knew that this girl was thin-skinned, so he tried to avoid putting too much pressure on Vera. As an excellent fishpond owner, how could he not know that only a long line can catch big fish?

Before leaving, he said hello to the club manager and asked him to help entertain the guests.

Learning that Miss Vera would be staying here made the manager a little hesitant, wondering if he had misunderstood the relationship between the two.

But then he thought about it.

They went to the massage together, and their relationship seemed particularly close. Even if they weren't a couple, they were probably not far from it. Even if they weren't, they had to be treated as if they were.

This led to Vera receiving a Sihai Club membership card, a whole bottle of Moët & Chandon champagne, and fruits and desserts as soon as she checked in.

Her membership card was in a gold envelope and had no annual fee.

According to the letter, it could be used to enjoy discounts at the Sihai International Shopping Center in the future, and also enjoy discounts on golf courses, five-star hotels, and many corporate-level services.

Vera didn't think anything of it, given her family background.

But it wasn't so easy for others to join this club. In addition to a membership fee of 600,000 RMB, the annual membership fee was as high as 200,000 RMB. To join, one also had to pass the board of directors' review and approval. Strength and influence were indispensable.

Of course.

The club was opened by his own family, and Su Yehao and his father had the right to directly invite people to join.

Anyway, he didn't want to make money through this club. It didn't matter whether he charged membership fees or not. He just set a threshold to keep some swindlers out...

Su Yehao was already resting in the quadrangle courtyard.

The renovation work of the next-door neighbor seemed to have finally come to an end, at least there was no noise this time.

The messy telephone poles in the hutong disappeared, and the ground was re-trimmed and covered with a layer of asphalt.

Many of the surrounding courtyards seemed to have been bought. Since he moved in, the house prices in the neighborhood have risen a lot. Compared with the 1990s, the price of the quadrangle courtyard has increased by as much as four or five times, and it is difficult to find one.

Especially good houses with clear property rights and large areas are hard to come by in the neighborhood.

At eight o'clock in the evening.

Linda Yun walked with Su Yehao in the courtyard and said, "I heard that there used to be city walls in Sijiucheng (another name for Beijing), but they were torn down later. Many quadrangle courtyards in many places were also torn down. This place is becoming more and more like a metropolis. The changes are really fast."

"It's a pity that the city walls were torn down. Some old hutongs don't even have sewers. People can only go to public toilets, and there are random buildings everywhere. There is not much value in protecting them. It's not a pity to tear them down."

Su Yehao said.

He had been to Sijiucheng as early as 1997 and still had an impression of the environment a few years ago.

Don't think that people are always clamoring to miss the past, they just like the lively atmosphere.

If you really want to go back to the era when you couldn't make money and resources were scarce, most people probably wouldn't be happy.

Some people have only had big fish and big meat for a few years, and the pressure of life is still very small now.

Not to mention the low prices, if you don't buy a new house and want to move to a big city to settle down, the cost and threshold are not too high, at least it is much easier than after the house prices rise in the future.

Still not sleepy, going out to the lake, Su Yehao continued:

"The reason why the old hutongs were torn down is that the population is too large. If everyone builds bungalows, it is estimated that they will soon expand to the 20th Ring Road and become a metropolitan area like Los Angeles. From the perspective of resource allocation and economic benefits, the current result is the best."

Linda Yun grew up in San Francisco and retorted after listening:

"That's not right. The mainland is not short of land. Obviously, bungalows and villas are more comfortable to live in. Japan also has a small land area and a large population, but there are many detached houses in the city, and various facilities are very convenient."

Su Yehao put his arms around his chest, strolled slowly by Beihai Park, and explained:

"But the city is so big, the supporting infrastructure is even more, and the wood, wires, water pipes and other resources consumed are countless. On the one hand, economic development is not rich enough, and on the other hand, it has not entered the stage of reverse urbanization like Europe and the United States."

"At present, most of the population still lives in self-built houses in rural areas and small towns, but they are not as beautiful as the small towns in Europe and the United States. In the end, the economic strength is a little worse. In the future, some low-density satellite cities may emerge. Building commercial houses now is in line with economic interests, and the speed of urbanization is therefore accelerated, which is conducive to attracting people into the city."

"The current set in the mainland is obviously learning from Hong Kong. The same area of land can be sold for tens or hundreds of times higher than the price of bungalows, and it also meets the housing needs of more people. If it all depends on self-construction, the urbanization rate will not increase after half a century. The problem is quite complicated, not that simple..."

With nothing to do, he doesn't mind chatting more.

Seeing someone selling maltose on the side of the road, Su Yehao asked the price and asked the boss to weigh two taels.

Then he said to Linda Yun:

"Compared with whether we should move into commercial houses, I am more concerned about how to improve the beauty of the city. Some ancient towns and old streets that we have been to are very tasteful, but most other places are the same and lack characteristics. When it comes to how to market a city, Europe and the United States are better. For example, Las Vegas is the city of sin, Los Angeles is the city of angels, Paris is the city of romance, Milan is the city of fashion, etc. This is also an economic issue."

After pondering, Linda Yun nodded and said, "Your family should build some characteristic towns. When urbanization reaches a certain level, residents have money in their hands, and they may sell very well."

"We should take some land in advance, such as the sea-view houses in Sanya, near the scenic spots in first- and second-tier cities, etc. The appreciation potential will be quite high in the future. Now the houses in the city are not worried about selling, and few developers pay attention to these."

Eating maltose, Su Yehao smiled:

"A large number of people have just moved from the suburbs and rural areas into the city. Now when they talk about scenery and nature, it is estimated that not many people will care. They prefer large shopping malls and office buildings. Whether the quadrangle courtyard is demolished or not, few residents in the small courtyard care. They only care about how much money they can get after the demolition and how many houses they can get. Ten or twenty years later, as long as the houses remain in their hands, they will be worth at least three or five million, and there are many winners in life."

The middle-aged man selling maltose interjected:

"Looking at your posture, young man, you are not an ordinary person. You see things clearly. My courtyard on the Second Ring Road, where several families live together, has just been demolished. I got two two-bedroom apartments, one one-bedroom apartment, and more than 100,000 cash. Recently, my parents' courtyard will also be demolished. It is estimated that they can get two more apartments. The houses they get are also on the Third Ring Road. I used to quarrel with my neighbors all day long, and they would leak from time to time. Only a fool wouldn't move."

Hearing this.

Su Yehao said with a smile:

"Oh, I'm sorry for not recognizing Mount Tai. Then you should keep it well. Don't sell the house no matter what you sell. With five houses here, it will be worth at least twenty to thirty million in fifteen years."

"Thank you for your kind words. I don't dare to think about twenty to thirty million. It sounds like a dream. Mine is nothing. The neighbor's yard was demolished and they got eight apartments. There is only one girl in the family. Her monthly rent is more than she earns from work..."
