Zhao Guangran was quite angry, "How could you not tell me about such an important matter?"
"It's excessive, way too excessive."
Couldn't you have given him the money to invest?
"Bro, don't you think buying a house now is really a waste?"
"The housing prices in China are rising sharply, but here in the United States, they really haven't gone up much."
Zhao Guangran naturally assumed his older brother wanted to make money by speculating on real estate like in China.
The idea isn't bad, but the key issue is that foreigners prefer to rent rather than buy houses.
"Foreigners have unstable jobs, and a job transfer or change might mean moving to another city or state." Zhao Guangran found it quite strange at first, so different from back home.
But having been here so long, he's gotten used to it, "We have fewer people moving around in China, although now more people are going south or are staying in Beijing for work."
