Chapter 591 Occupy First
Cheng Hui has a lot to do recently.
After pretending to be sick, she felt much quieter around her and no one wanted to see her anymore, no matter if they were leaders above her or people below her who wanted to borrow money from her.
She began to deal with the land and houses she had acquired.
Some of them have to be allowed to continue living there, and when the new house is built, they will be asked to move out.
But there are some that can be dealt with now, including 8 idle old factories and 3 mansions.
In the huge capital city, there were many villas and mansions in the past, and the Meng family was even inconspicuous among them.
The mansions of those real big shots cover dozens or even hundreds of acres, and they have gardens, rockery, and even ponds and small lakes!
Of course, most of the ponds and lakes are gone now, either filled in or marked as parks.
Only three large mansions came into her hands.
The two buildings were once divided up as large storage buildings. Now these units were in urgent need of money, so they found a way to arrange the people to other places and leave the building vacant for Cheng Hui.
This way she can give more money.
One was an office building for a certain unit. Now the entire unit has disappeared and been merged into another department.
The house became vacant and was originally going to be taken away for further processing.
As a result, the original leader of the unit found out about it and sold it to Cheng Hui before the land deed was handed in.
Some people above him will certainly have opinions later, but now he has benefited from it.
He used this building to buy houses for dozens of people in the unit! And Cheng Hui promised that each unit will be 100 square meters!
Come on, scold him to death, he wants to listen!
Cheng Hui’s focus now is on this building.
She came to take a look during her lunch break.
It’s not far, only five minutes by car.
They used to be neighbors of the Meng family, but their house was much bigger than the Meng family's. It was a three-story pure European-style building. The garden in the front yard was over a thousand square meters, and the back garden had a lake and had become a park.
It is now separated by a wall, but there is a small door in the wall.
Cheng Hui went through the small door, took a walk in the park, then came back and walked around the building.
As an office building, the damage to the house is relatively small.
Unlike other large buildings, the door of each household has become a kitchen, and the smoke has changed the color of the house.
There has been no additions or random construction, and the floor and walls are still the same as before, but they are indeed very old.
How can you make it your own?
Now they have five adults and one child living in a rented house, which is no longer large enough.
There is only one bathroom, and they are all young men and women, so it is very inconvenient every day.
And the office didn't have any extra room for her to stay.
"Find someone to clean it up. This will be our second office from now on. Clean up my office, two secretaries' offices, two laboratories, and two reception rooms on the first floor."
Cheng Hui ordered: "The second floor will be used as the girls' dormitory, and the third floor will be used as the boys' dormitory."
The only people who could live in it were her, Gao Zhi, Gao Qiao, Gao Xiu, Liu Di, Bian Xiumei and Cui Pan.
There are also Cheng Rui and Jiang Quan.
Now is not the time to make it private; it is too big and too conspicuous.
And there is another hurdle ahead.
This building was quite famous in the previous life. The original owner and his family went overseas in their early years and entrusted the house to a housekeeper, who was also managed by a distant relative of their family.
Later, the housekeeper's family was also affected and now they are farming in their hometown in the south.
A few years later, after the reform and opening up, when the property was returned, the people above found them and returned the house to them.
Later, the descendants of the real owner overseas came back and asked the housekeeper for the house with the title deed and power of attorney.
The steward's descendants refused to return the money, saying they didn't know.
The husband and the wife each think that they are right in this matter, and the lawsuit has been going on for many years without any result.
I heard that the fight was very fierce in private, with kidnapping, blackmail, threats and beatings, and several people were killed.
Then, on a rainy night, the house was demolished by an excavator hired by someone unknown.
Neither company admitted it, and no third party came forward to acknowledge it.
Residents only have ownership of the house and the right to use the land. If the house is gone, they will also have no right to use the land underneath.
In the end, this piece of land together with the garden in front of the door belonged to the park behind, and the two families did not get a penny.
Cheng Hui thought that for the sake of saving lives, she might as well demolish the house first.
Then build a new house, and this place will rightfully belong to her.
But now is not the time.
To be stuck after opening and before returning.
Of course the secretary listened to her and did whatever she said. She immediately arranged for someone to come and repair and clean the house.
Cheng Hui watched them decorate the house. She didn't allow them to use glue or paint or new furniture. They only wanted old, solid wood.
She was afraid that formaldehyde would be bad for the child.
As a result, outsiders think she is frugal and unwilling to spend a penny of public money on herself.
Gained another wave of good reputation.
Three days later, she moved into the house, which had barely been cleaned.
The room she lived in was the original master bedroom. It was large enough and had a separate bathroom.
Cheng Hui was very satisfied.
The others were also very satisfied. Almost all of them had grown up and finally had their own room!
Cheng Jianming came over to take a look and wanted to move in.
He is living in the company dormitory now and doesn’t want to go home!
As soon as I get home, I see Pan Li's face full of negative energy. She can't pretend for three minutes before she complains, scolds Cheng Hui, and asks him to change her job.
Isn't it just being a loader? There are women in many loading and unloading workshops now. Why can others do it but she can’t?
Look at the vast number of rural women, they do work that is harder and more tiring than loaders!
When Cheng Hui first went to the countryside, he also had to carry sacks and firewood!
Instead of complaining, you might as well carry a few more sacks and exercise your body, so that you won’t feel tired in the future.
When these words came out of Cheng Jianming's mouth, Pan Li just wanted to die, and before she died, she wanted to beat this heartless man to death!
Anyway, Cheng Jianming hardly ever goes back home now, and he likes his eldest granddaughter so much that he goes to see her almost every day after get off work. It’s quite tiring to run back and forth.
Cheng Hui said: "It is definitely against the rules for you to stay here legitimately, but there are a few guest rooms on the third floor, so it's certainly okay for you to stay here occasionally."
Of course, no one would argue with her about how occasional this "occasionally" was.
Seven days or occasionally six days should be fine.
She doesn't have much time to accompany little Peggy, but she is surrounded by relatives such as grandpa, uncle, aunt, and other relatives, so she should not be lonely.
When Cheng Jianming heard this, he hesitated for a moment and then agreed.
"I'll pay for the food," he said.
This way there will be fewer braids.
Cheng Hui nodded and agreed, saying they were all small matters.
Cheng Jianming got back to business.
"I drew the final version based on the sketches you drew that day. Do you think it's okay?" he said.
Cheng Hui took a few glances and thought there was nothing wrong with it. She could just copy what his father did. Her father had the ability to do that.
"When will the welfare housing for your unit be completed? Have they told you how big the unit you will be allocated will be?" she asked.
She is more concerned about this issue now.
