新华社消息，尽管中央政府不遗余力严控房价上涨、遏制炒作房价，但是在河南省光山县，哪怕只是简单的户型图都可以吸引大批购房者。有的旧房子还没拆，没影的新房子就已经开卖了。 |
| A resident surnamed Zhou bought an apartment in the future apartment complex Xian Cheng Shu Yuan, even though construction signs on the lot have not yet appeared. "Although I haven't seen a brick, the price has almost doubled," Zhou said. |
居民老周认购了弦城书苑的房子，虽然房子尚未开工建设，但是他说：“虽然我连房子的影子还没看到，可房价已经快要翻番了。” |
