Chapter 198 The House Issue is Done
Wei Ping looked at the time. It was only half past six.
Who is it early in the morning?
Then a voice came from outside.
"Is Doctor Wei here?"
Judging from the voice, it is a man, and he is a bit old.
There was also the sound of a woman talking outside.
"Director, will we disturb Dr. Wei if we come here so early?" the woman asked. Her voice was very gentle and she seemed a little old.
Listening to the woman's statement, the man is the director of what.
After hearing this, Wei Ping wondered which department he should be from.
But which department would come to see me?
"They are only free at this time. If you come later, they will be at work. Doctors are so busy, how can we have the nerve to disturb them at work?" the director added.
"What about tonight?" the woman asked again.
"It's even worse at night. We don't know when he'll be back, and our superiors have asked us to deal with this matter as soon as possible. Because of this, I didn't sleep well that night."
From what he said, it seems that men are under a lot of pressure.
"Doctor Wei, are you there?" The man knocked on the door again.
Wei Ping stood up at this time.
"Here I come, wait a minute!"
It was quiet outside for a while.
Then Wei Ping opened the door.
I saw two people. The man had a Mediterranean look, was probably in his fifties, and was a bit fat.
The woman was younger, in her forties, and dressed very appropriately, with an intellectual beauty.
"Who are you?"
"I'm the director of the community, my last name is Zhang! This is my partner, Ms. Dai!"
"Hello, Director Zhang, what can I do for you?" Wei Ping asked.
Then he said, "Oh, come sit inside first!"
Then he led the two into the room.
He turned on the lights and brought in two plastic chairs.
"Sorry, this place is a bit small! I rarely have guests at home." Wei Ping explained.
Director Zhang took a look.
He said, "This place is still a little small. It seems that we haven't taken good care of the community members, especially the new technicians! And there are so many books! Won't you sleep cramped?"
Director Zhang said so.
Wei Ping said, "No, it's just right. As for a house, as long as there is a place to sleep, that's all."
These words made Director Zhang feel a little guilty.
"Doctor Wei, this is something our community didn't do well. You're in our community, and we should have paid attention to you, but we didn't. On behalf of the community, I apologize to you for this!"
Wei Ping was confused by Director Zhang.
"Director Zhang, I don't quite understand. What's wrong?"
Yeah, what's wrong.
He was completely kept in the dark.
He came to see me so early in the morning.
What happened.
What are these two community workers going to do?
You don't just want to come and apologize, do you?
But you don't have to think about going to apologize in person for a whole night.
Director Zhang then said, "The leaders read your report yesterday and were amazed. Our city's iconic figure actually lives in an urban village, and that village is facing demolition. This highlights our lack of care for talented individuals! So, the leaders worked overnight and came to a conclusion. I'll be contacting you to discuss this."
It turned out to be something that happened yesterday.
Wei Ping asked again: "Will the demolition be postponed?"
"It depends on what Shanghai wants, but there's a high probability that they'll give citizens living in urban villages a little more time so they can have more time to find better houses," Director Zhang added.
He spoke slowly, but he gave off a very trustworthy vibe.
"Then thank you for your help!"
"It's not a bother. We came here so early this morning. I hope we didn't disturb you?" Director Zhang asked again.
Ms. Dai on the side added: "Yes, it's not even seven o'clock yet, and I'm very sorry to bother you."
"It's okay, it's okay. I get up at this time every day." Wei Ping said quickly.
"Then I'll get to the point," said Director Zhang.
"You say!"
"The city has already built affordable housing for talented individuals near the First Hospital. The floors there are good, and the air is fresh. After the city's research, you were originally required to apply for affordable housing, but now you've been granted a two-bedroom, two-living room apartment here. The rent is two thousand yuan a month. Utilities will be calculated based on residential water and electricity usage."
Wei Ping was shocked when he heard this.
This is the greatest support the city has given us.
And at two thousand per set, it’s really not expensive.
He has to pay 1,000 yuan a month for rent here.
Although the water and electricity bills are for residents' electricity and water consumption, because the landlord has too many houses, the tiered usage has long exceeded the limit, so electricity is one dollar per kilowatt-hour and water is five dollars per kilowatt-hour.
If you live in a residential complex, a one-bedroom apartment will cost 3,900 yuan, not including property fees, water, electricity, etc. For such a one-bedroom apartment, you basically have to share the rent.
The starting price for a two-bedroom apartment is 5,500, and the price for a three-bedroom apartment is as high as 7,000.
People without high income cannot afford to live in a house.
Therefore, urban villages are the starting point for many people who first come to Shanghai.
This is where dreams begin.
That’s why there’s such a heated discussion on the Internet.
Wei Ping was a little touched by their actions.
Ms. Dai added: "If you need it, we can help you with your household registration."
"You have so many books that they could probably fill a whole room. One room can be used for sleeping, the other can be used as a study, and the living room can be used as a place for guests to sit when they come over. This way, it won't be crowded."
