Chapter 086 Changes
The owner of the house is named Zhang, and his son works in the city. After getting married, the workplace allocated him a small house. The young couple had to work three shifts, so they called the old man over to help take care of the children. The old house here had been vacant for two years. The last time Lao Zhang came back to clean was several months ago. He was probably used to living in the city, so this time he didn't even come back for the New Year.
Hearing that this was the case, Lin Siwei didn't tell his mother-in-law why he was here, only that he had something to look for. The mother-in-law didn’t know exactly where Lao Zhang’s son lived, but she knew where he worked.
Thanking the mother-in-law, the three of them went to the city again.
On the way, Lin Siwei asked Jia Soldier if the other households had taken a fancy to it. Soldier Jia was firm and said he would ask Lao Zhang first. If Lao Zhang can't get it, ask someone else.
Lao Zhang's son Zhang Bin works in the warehouse of the Municipal Pharmaceutical Company, and Lin Siwei doesn't know where the Municipal Pharmaceutical Company is. Fortunately, the urban area of Jinling is not big. The three of them asked all the way and arrived at the pharmaceutical company in the evening. But Zhang Bin was not on duty. The colleague on duty gave them Zhang Bin's home address, and the three of them hurried to Zhang Bin's home.
Along the way, Su Hongxia, who was entering the city for the first time, looked around curiously. Here was a department store and there was a movie theater. Everything was so fresh.
"Soldier, when we make money, let's watch a movie together. I've only seen the kind of movies where the curtains are drawn in the county auditorium."
"No problem. I moved to the city and I'll take you to see it right away. Isn't that just money? "Let's watch the most popular movies, starring foreigners."
"Soldier, let's buy a bicycle in the future. Look at how fast they ride. They can run many steps ahead of me."
"No problem, I do ." Learn first, and then I'll teach you after you learn it. And we, Fangfang and Yaming, will all learn to drive in the future."
Soldier Jia's tone was vaguely rich.
Although I haven't made a lot of money yet, I already have the courage. They were obviously talking about bicycles, but here, Lin Siwei seemed to see a scene of a middle-aged man standing in a Mercedes-Benz and BMW 4S store giving advice.
Seeing the novelty on his aunt's face and the ambition on his uncle's face, Lin Siwei walked with great enthusiasm and reached the dormitory building of the pharmaceutical company in 20 minutes.
Su Hongxia was so envious again.
She stood downstairs, looking up at the majestic four-story building, and was almost moved to tears: "It's great to live in a building."
"No problem. From now on, when we establish a foothold in the city, we can also move to a building."
Su Hongxia said . My eyes were shining, and I felt like I had already lived in a building.
Lin Siwei: Auntie, in another twenty years I won’t even give you a building to live in. You want to live in a villa.
...
Zhang Bin went out to buy groceries, and his wife was at home. When she heard that she was here to rent a house, she was so shocked that she opened her mouth wide and didn't close it for a long time.
"You mean, my parents' old house?"
That house was ranked among the top five in the entire village in terms of dilapidation. It's really incredible that someone would take a fancy to it.
What's even more incredible is that they came to rent a house for business.
These days, some self-employed people doing business have indeed begun to appear sporadically. They either use their own houses or rent houses in the street or village committee. She has never seen anyone renting a private house directly.
Lao Zhang and his wife don’t understand even more. I just asked my daughter-in-law: "Does the state allow it?"
The daughter-in-law was also unsure: "Maybe... it is allowed?"
Just when he was undecided, Zhang Bin came back in time. He works in a pharmaceutical company's warehouse and has a lot of free time. He usually likes to read newspapers and listen to the radio.
He is more knowledgeable than the old man and his wife. After listening carefully to Lin Siwei's intention, and then hearing his wife's concerns, Zhang Bin smiled and said, "Of course it's allowed. I haven't seen it mentioned in the newspaper that self-employed people should be encouraged."
After that, he said to Soldier Jia again . : "In other words, we need to make the economy active!"
He said in a serious tone and nodded seriously. Special for talking about big things.
But Lao Zhang still weakly confirmed for the last time: "Does the state really allow it?"
Zhang Bin only thought, renting out means rent. My wife and I are struggling to support a family of four with our wages. My parents are farmers in the suburbs. There is no labor insurance, so an extra dollar would be good.
He said: "The policy has been liberalized. I just bought vegetables. There are many farmers selling their own chickens and ducks outside the market. They are all allowed by the state."
Lao Zhang finally put some snacks and said "oh" slightly. Soldier Jia smiled and said, "Don't worry, Master Zhang. I have a business license. I'll show you the business license later
. The state has issued me a business license, so how can I be allowed to open a store?"
Lao Zhang was convinced.
If he already has a business license, then the state must have allowed him to open a store.
Soldier Jia was not in a hurry to negotiate the rent, and made an appointment to see the inside of the house tomorrow morning and finalize it if he was satisfied.
That night, Jia Bingbing and his wife lived on Yangchuan Road. They didn't have a letter of introduction and couldn't stay in a hotel. Hu Qiaoyue took the initiative to keep someone, saying that if they didn't like it, they would spend the night in the kitchen.
Indeed, this house only has a floor covering in the kitchen.
Lin Siwei knew that grandma was doing this for him. Grandma and aunt are not related by blood, but she is willing to let them stay overnight. This is actually her acceptance and recognition of Su Hongmei.
...
The next morning, the three of them went together again. Lao Zhang and Zhang Bin had arrived home and opened the courtyard door to let them in.
It has to be said that the house will easily deteriorate if no one lives in it for a long time, but fortunately it is old and has a musty smell unique to Jiangnan. There are two houses side by side, and there is a side room in the yard for storing sundries.
The yard is big enough, and Soldier Jia is very satisfied.
The clutter in the wing was tidied up, and most of the room was freed up to put a table and get started. Soldier Jia was also very satisfied.
The two rooms are quite bright and can be used for living. The couple lived in one room, and moved the cabinet to the middle of the house in the other room, thus naturally dividing the two rooms. Jia Fang and Jia Yaming can have their own single room.
Better than the countryside! Su Hongxia was also very satisfied now.
While they were discussing the rent in the house, Lin Siwei walked to the entrance of the courtyard and looked east. He saw the LTL house a hundred meters away. Looking west, he could see the teaching building of the Grain School.
Lin Siwei was also very satisfied when he thought that he would work in a grain school in the future.
Lao Zhang's offer was indeed conscientious. He looked at Soldier Jia timidly for a long time and raised a hand.
Soldier Jia was angry, thinking it was five hundred, thinking that the old man was asking for a lot of money. Unexpectedly, Lao Zhang said: "Fifty."
Fifty rented such a big place, and Soldier Jia knew a little about the market in Jinling, which was also unexpected.
Zhang Bin, on the other hand, said frankly: "If the house has been empty for the past few years, we will not live in it. My father means that if the house is not liveable, people will lose. I will rent it to you, and the rent will be second. If you open a shop, how much can you pay for it?" Keep the house popular. "
To be honest, he was even sorry that Soldier Jia didn't come earlier. His child is two years old, and the house has been empty for two years, a total loss of one hundred yuan.
It's worth three months' salary.
Lin Siwei lamented that the real price of land and houses these days, especially the land around the Grain School, actually belongs to the suburbs. For people living in the old city gates like Yangchuan Road or Yugu Lane, it is considered rural land. piece. No one realizes the value of these lands.
Soldier Jia readily paid two hundred and fifty, and both parties wrote a written agreement for a five-year lease.
After handing over the keys, the couple rushed back to Shaping County to prepare for the move.
Lin Siwei sent them to the long-distance bus station. Before getting in the car, Su Hongxia handed her a hundred yuan. Lin Siwei was startled and quickly pushed him back, but Su Hongxia cried.
"Siwei, my aunt didn't take care of you before. Your mother is gone, and my aunt should take care of you."
"Don't say that, your family didn't have the conditions at that time..."
"Anyway, I heard that you came to the city because After being bullied in the village, your uncle went to beat up the big yellow tooth. My aunt can't help you. You give us advice and get business. You deserve this money. Take it quickly.
" One hundred yuan, this is really not a small amount. This is two years' rent.
"Auntie, you keep this money. We need to start things in Jinling later, and there are still many places where we need to spend money. You can't be too tight. My internship is now paid, and I am not short of money."
Su Hongxia insisted . Very: "It's your business whether you are short of money, and whether I give it to you or not is my business. If I don't take it from you, you won't forgive my aunt."
Soldier Jia also echoed: "We are not short of money, please open up here. There is still Jiang Xinquan who wants to invest money. Siwei, just take it and buy some nutritional supplements for your grandma, ah?"
Lin Siwei's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered that Gu Nianshen had promised to arrange for Hu Qiaoyue to have a leg treatment with the provincial army chief after the Chinese New Year. There are indeed many places to spend money.
"Then thank you, auntie. I'm waiting for you to come to Jinling and settle down as soon as possible."
Su Hongxia wiped her tears and said, "It's very fast, I'll be here in ten days."
...
Yu Jianxiu's work efficiency is much higher than expected.
After the Spring Festival holiday, when Lin Siwei returned to work at the brewery, Tan Xiangmei called her to the labor department on her first day.
"Sit down. Xiaolin, sit down." Tan Xiangmei smiled, but looked at Lin Siwei deeply.
"Chief Tan, what do you want from me?" Lin Siwei asked.
Tan handed Mei a piece of paper: "I've stamped your internship certificate for you."
The handwriting in blue and black ink on the internship certificate was fresh, with a big red seal at the bottom, and Lin Siwei pinched one edge. She gently let go of her hand and found that her fingertips were stained with red.
This seal was also just stamped.
"Is my internship over?"
According to the original plan, the internship will be until the end of April, which is still two months away.
Tan Xiangmei smiled and said: "Your school called, saying that the province wanted you to stay in school to teach, and asked you to return to school now."
It was really fast. Sure enough, no matter how inconvenient communication is these days, it is only a matter of a casual phone call between leaders.
Seeing that Lin Siwei didn't speak, Tan Xiangmei thought she didn't know anything about it, and whispered: "You must have performed well last time, and Director Yu appreciated you. If you go back to the Grain School, you will be famous all over the world."
This is somewhat of a guess . Reliable.
Lin Siwei said: "Thank you, Chief Tan, for taking care of me during this time. No matter where I work in the future, I ask you to take good care of me."
"Little girl, what kind words can you say?" Tan Xiangmei patted her shoulder affectionately, "Mr. Brewery The factory is your mother's house, come and play when you have time."
He leaned into her ear and said, "Go and say goodbye to Director Ding. He can't bear to leave you."
