House is an unavoidable topic for everyone.
When humans were still in the animal kingdom, they didn't need houses, although ants would dig holes in the ground and birds would nest in trees. Later, when people left the animal kingdom and went to the world alone, they needed a house to resist the attacks of other fierce animals. However, at that time, human beings were still very weak and could not build strong houses, so they had to find a cave to live in. This is their natural house.
Later, mankind mastered more skills and learned to build houses and raise animals, so "home" appeared. The ancient people's demands were really simple. A house and a pig are home.
However, this seemingly simple requirement is actually a wish that is not so easy to realize. In ancient times when productivity was low, it was difficult to fill one's stomach. It is unrealistic to raise another pig, let alone build a decent house. Most poor people can only get a straw house that can't blow anything at one breath, just like the pigs in Three Little Pigs.
Perhaps, China people have an unusually deep affection for their home. Throughout the ages, rich people bought land, built houses and bought real estate. A home without a house seems to be incomplete forever. People often say "it is difficult to leave home". In fact, it is not the hometown that is difficult to leave, but the house above. The house is there, and the homeland is there. The house is gone, and the homeland seems to be carefree.
Now the house is more like a mountain, pressing on everyone in China. It's not just a house, it carries too many things, such as hukou, work, children's education ... everything makes you unable to give up.
The soaring housing prices are even more worrying. The housing prices of millions and tens of millions in big cities are staggering. After years of hard work, many people still can't afford to buy a house. There are countless people who have hollowed out their whole families for their houses, and even bear heavy repayment pressure in the next few decades.

The world is bustling, all for profit; The world is bustling for profit.
Profit is one of the goals pursued by human beings.
From the point of view of the whole society, this profit-seeking behavior is undoubtedly a great motive force for social progress objectively, which greatly promotes the development of productive forces and makes human beings evolve step by step from the original blood-eating society to today's industrial civilized society. However, from the perspective of human nature, this is a disgraceful thing. It caused a lot of bloodshed and wars, and countless people paid a heavy price for it, even their lives.
The glory of human nature is stripped to pieces in front of interests, and the house is more like a magic mirror, which can reflect people's souls and make them show their true colors and have nowhere to hide.
Do not believe, look at the following story.

A piece of news the other day.
2065438+September 2006, Ms. Zhang took a fancy to a second-hand house in Baoliye Mansion, Shibei District, Qingdao, so she signed a second-hand house purchase contract with the original owner, Mr. Zhou, and spent 2.36 million yuan to buy this house of 1 17 square meters. According to the contract, Ms. Zhang paid a deposit of 450,000 yuan and a head payment of 450,000 yuan. Mr. and Mrs. Zhou will use this 900,000 yuan to pay off the housing bank loan and let the house go. After both parties agreed to complete the house transfer, Ms. Zhang paid off the remaining house price of RMB 6,543,800+0.46 million.
After signing the purchase contract, Ms. Zhang got the key to the house and soon began to decorate it. Seeing that the new house is about to be renovated. At the beginning of April this year, the original owner proposed to cancel the transaction and recover the house. Ms. Zhang refused Mr. Zhou's request, thinking that she had fulfilled the responsibilities of the buyer as stipulated in the contract, and the seller could not break the contract at will.
But a few days later, Ms. Zhang's family began to be restless. First someone knocked at the door with a hammer, and then blocked the keyhole. Ms. Zhang was asked to settle the bill. On the morning of April 25th, a group of people came, one of whom was Mr. Zhou's wife. When they entered the door, they began to smash things and drove Ms. Zhang's family out. The original owner arranged for two old people to live in it.
Ms. Zhang believes that due to the construction of several subway lines and other factors, Qingdao's housing prices have skyrocketed. After she bought this house, it rose by more than 500 thousand in a few months. Mr. Zhou wants to break the contract because of money.
On April 27th, Shibei Branch of Qingdao Public Security Bureau criminally detained Zhou Moumou and Mao Moumou suspected of intentionally damaging property and illegally invading houses. At present, the case is under further investigation. It has been suggested that the disputes over real estate sales contracts involving both parties should be resolved through legal channels.

A short story in a circle of friends, the authenticity is unknown.
There is a retired couple who have worked in Edinburgh, England all their lives and are going to sell their house and go to Spain for retirement. Britain is surrounded by the sea and the climate is humid, so the elderly are prone to rheumatism.
The old man took a fancy to the house in Spain and had to pay within two weeks. He hung up the house in the housing agency, saying it was "urgent sale".
A couple of young people in China have just found jobs in this city. Their children have to go to school and are anxious to buy a house. I was really moved to see the photos and prices of the houses hung by the intermediary-both the location and the quality of the houses are what they want.
The young man noticed the words "urgent sale of houses" and asked the telephone agent "can you give me a discount?" The old couple thought for a moment that Spain had booked a house that was in a hurry to pay, and said "not bad". So I cut the house price at the first time.
Young people think there is still a chance. Two days before signing the purchase contract, they suddenly said that the price was unacceptable and they would not buy it unless the price dropped more.
Unexpectedly, the old couple actually agreed!
Young people are overjoyed, and almost cabbage prices have bought a good house, so they can stay with their bags.
Walking into the yard, the grass is green and the flowers are in full bloom, as if the owner had just left. Pushing open the door, the young man could hardly believe his eyes. The house is spotless, the windows are bright and clean, there are flowers on the table, and there is a note on the vase that says-you are very welcome to stay in this house that has recorded our happy life for decades! I hope you will be as happy and healthy as us in the next life!
Go into the kitchen and open the refrigerator. There are food and drinks in it. The refrigerator also pressed the note and said, "The refrigerator has prepared food for you for a week. The supermarket will drive out and turn left, and it will take about 20 minutes. "
Young people are beginning to get confused. Is this how the house is sold?
There is also a note on the meter box that says, "We have reserved at least one month's electricity bill for you, and we can help you with the relevant renaming procedures during this time." In Britain, it is very troublesome to go through such procedures.
Young people are completely cheated! He stood there motionless-the concepts of "adult beauty", "taking advantage of people's danger", "icing on the cake" and "adding insult to injury" made him stunned and at a loss for a moment.
At this point, he has completely lost the joy of moving.

How to boost the ambitions of foreigners, undermine the prestige of China people, and make foreign moons rounder than China?
I really didn't mean to.
The moon in China is of course as round as the whole world.
Look at another story of Liuchi Lane:
There is an alley in Xihou Street, Tongcheng City, Anhui Province, with the Prime Minister's Mansion in the south and the Wu Mansion in the north. It is 100 meters long and 2 meters wide, all paved with pebbles. Historically, it was called Liuchi Lane. There is a well-known story in this humble alley.
According to Tongcheng County Records and Yao Yongpu's old news essays:
During the reign of Emperor Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, Zhang, a college student of Wenhua Hall and a minister of rites, lived in Tongcheng. His hometown is adjacent to Wu Zhai, separated by a narrow alley for people to go in and out, but this area belongs to the Zhang family.
Later, the Wu family wanted to cross the border when building a house, but the Zhang family refused to accept it. The two sides had a dispute and sued the county government. Because both of them are dignitaries, the county magistrate is in a dilemma and cannot make a judgment.
Zhang Ying's family found it difficult to argue, so they wrote a letter and sent it to Beijing to tell Zhang Ying about it. After Zhang finished, he began to touch the ink. On the letter from home, he approved four poems:
Zhang's poems made him feel guilty, so he gave up the three-foot foundation without hesitation. When the Wu family met, they thought the Zhang family was powerful, but they didn't bully others. Deeply moved, they followed the example of the Zhang family and retreated three feet. A six-foot-wide roadway named "Six-foot Lane" was thus formed.
The courtesy of the two families has also been passed down as a beautiful talk.
In addition, according to records, Zeng Guofan's hometown built a new house, and there was a dispute with his neighbor's house because of the land boundary issue, and the lawsuit went to Xiangxiang County. The Zeng family wrote a letter to Zeng Guofan on this matter. Zeng Guofan wrote a letter immediately after receiving this letter, and attached a poem by Zhang Ying. His family certainly understood what he meant, so they shrank back by three feet. This move of the Zeng family also touched the neighbors. Neighbors saw that their place was really convenient for the Zeng family, so they transferred it to the Zeng family.

Houses make many people rich overnight and become tens of millions and billionaires.
The house makes many people struggle for their lives, and the heavy pressure is on their heads, living like slaves.
The house turned many people against each other, lost their affection and paid a heavy price.
