Buy a small courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing or buy beads?
Small courtyards in the suburbs of Beijing can only be rented but not bought. The state has expressly stipulated that rural homestead belongs to the village collective, not private property. Only villagers can transfer ownership and enjoy relocation subsidies. It is not that people in the village only have the right to use, no property rights, no demolition subsidies, and houses cannot be bought or sold.
