Chapter 55
No one knew what Auntie Ma and the others talked about with the deputy factory director. All we knew was that Auntie Ma returned home that night in high spirits, and her tone remained the same.
I still want four bedrooms and one living room.
After returning home, Jian Feng thought for a moment and finally called Wang Liming.
The call was transferred to Wang Liming, and from his end came the sound of an electric saw sawing wood.
"Brother Feng, I'm in the store, what can I do for you?"
Jian Feng: "There is something I want to tell you. Please tell Jianguo how you want to tell him."
Wang Liming pressed the pressure and asked the workers to stop sawing the floor for the time being.
"Okay, Brother Feng, you decide."
Jian Feng told Wang Liming about the recent farce in the factory. For a smart man like Wang Liming, Jian Feng only gave the first words and Wang Liming quickly understood the whole story.
The factory manager may have had good intentions, but there were too many people in the factory who wanted to make a fortune from the factory.
Some small leaders wanted to take advantage of this, so they set the price high and deliberately caused conflicts among everyone, and then took the opportunity to directly stop the factory director's idea.
Otherwise, how do you explain how the factory has so much money to buy up the houses?
Isn't it just preparing some money to help the first few companies to apply?
Wang Liming: "Okay, Brother Feng, I know what you mean."
He paused and said, "I'll go talk to Jianguo later, but Brother Feng, you know Jianguo's situation. It's very likely that he can't make a decision on this matter."
Jian Feng: "It's okay, we just need to make sure we have a clear conscience."
Wang Liming: "Okay, I'll go there later."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Liming explained the matters in the store and went to the construction site to find Xu Jianguo.
Since Xu Jianguo was not at the construction site, Wang Liming went to find his co-workers.
The worker chuckled and said, "Boss Wang, your fellow villager is really interesting. He goes to wash his hair as soon as he gets paid. He has gone there four times this week."
Wang Liming's breath was caught in his throat, but his expression remained unchanged: "He went to wash his hair? When did he start?"
The worker gestured: "It's been more than a month."
Wang Liming took out an unpacked box of cigarettes and threw it to the man without checking how much was left. Then he asked for the location of the hair salon and left.
Wang Liming quickly found the hair salon. There were red, blue and white rotating light tubes at the door and a heavily made-up woman was watching TV inside.
He stood at the door and shouted: "Xu Jianguo! Xu Jianguo!"
The heavily made-up woman opened the door and said, "What are you yelling about? Come in if you want to wash your hair, or leave if you don't."
Wang Liming didn't care and continued to call Xu Jianguo's name.
Soon Xu Jianguo came down from the second floor with a flushed face and messy hair.
"Li, Liming, why are you here?"
Wang Liming said calmly: "Come with me."
Xu Jianguo's face was burning with panic. He hurriedly threw some money to the heavily made-up woman, and then obediently followed Wang Liming away.
Without saying anything, Wang Liming took him to the dormitory and asked Xu Jianguo, "Which shop is yours?"
Xu Jianguo was extremely nervous and pointed.
Wang Liming quickly wrapped the cover for him.
Xu Jianguo was tongue-tied and could not speak clearly: "Li, Liming, what are you doing?"
Wang Liming looked at him coldly: "I'll take you back."
Xu Jianguo was anxious: "I won't go back!"
Wang Liming said without hesitation: "You have to go back even if you don't want to. Even if you go back and find another construction site, you must go back this time."
Xu Jianguo squatted on the ground: "Why do you ask me to go back?"
Wang Liming said sarcastically, "I'm afraid you'll get sick here, and then you and your wife will blame me for not finding you a good job."
Xu Jianguo lowered his head: "I'm not sick."
"If you go there every day, it's only a matter of time."
Xu Jianguo stopped talking.
Wang Liming got angry when he saw him pretending to be dead, and threw the blanket at him: "Do you want to come with me, or do you want me to find a few people to take you to the car?"
Xu Jianguo burst into tears: "I don't want to go back."
Wang Liming was filled with anger. "I have no business doing this. Go back first."
Xu Jianguo suddenly burst into tears, and he felt wronged as he cried: "I just don't want to go back, so what?"
Wang Liming didn't want to argue with him anymore, so he just asked someone to go to the store to find his workers.
Three or four tall and strong workers stood up, and Xu Jianguo stopped crying immediately and looked at Wang Liming with pleading eyes.
But Wang Liming was not at all soft-hearted and directly asked someone to take him to the bus back to Taocheng.
Wang Liming also arranged for an old acquaintance who was going home to visit relatives to go with him, and reimbursed the travel tickets for both of them.
"Send it back without saying anything, just tell them that the construction site here is closed, I won't work on the construction site anymore, and I can't recommend any jobs."
Xu Jianguo originally thought that Wang Liming was going to tell Sun Yan everything he had done, and he was shaking with fear. But when Wang Liming said this, he had a glimmer of hope again.
Wang Liming looked at him and handed the old acquaintance a cigarette: "I'll tell him a few words."
The old man walked aside with interest.
Wang Liming stared at Xu Jianguo and said sternly, "Xu Jianguo, I really regret bringing you out."
It hasn't been long since I became a regular customer of the hair salon.
Wang Liming stared at Xu Jianguo until he felt ashamed.
Despite his rage, Wang Liming still carried out Jian Feng's instructions and told Xu Jianguo about the factory's house seizure.
"When you go back this time, seize the opportunity and start living a down-to-earth life after the house is built."
After saying this, Wang Liming left without looking back, leaving Xu Jianguo sitting in the car with a confused look on his face.
*****
After Jian Feng decided on the house, the ownership was transferred quickly.
I paid 35,000 yuan in exchange for a spacious and bright house.
Wang Mengmei liked it more and more, even more than the previous two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment. This family took good care of it, the house was clean and bright, and there were solid wooden cabinets throughout the house.
The homeowner reluctantly handed over the key: "I've lived in this house for a long time, and I really have some feelings for it."
If her daughter hadn't bought a house in the capital, she wouldn't have been willing to give up this old house. Houses in the capital are expensive now, and she was eager to sell her house to raise a down payment for her daughter.
Wang Mengmei's heart softened: "If you think about it in the future, come back and take a look."
The landlord waved his hand and said, "No, it's fine for you and your family to live here."
She looked at the family. The man seemed upright and capable. The woman was a little impatient but also efficient and hardworking. The little daughter was even smarter and more clever.
"I'm not worried at all about selling the house to you."
When people are harmonious and harmonious, both the house and the people will prosper.
After seeing off the original owner, Wang Mengmei began to plan how to clean up the house.
"This room is for Xiaoli to use as a study. Put a heavy table in the back."
"We don't want the original sofa anymore. I'll go back and pick out a new one."
"And give Jian Li a dressing table. Our room is missing a full-length mirror."
…
The more I look at it, the more I feel something is missing. If I use old furniture in a new house, I always feel like something is missing.
Jian Feng didn't give any other suggestions, he just said he would go buy a bucket of paint and paint it white.
This room is full of traces of the previous owner. In one corner, there is a scale marking the height of the family's little daughter from childhood to adulthood.
Jian Feng squatted there: "We also have this in our house."
Jian Li made a scratch every year she was born, and the old house was covered with scratch marks.
On the wall almost reaching the ground, there were little people drawn with pencil, a family drawn in a crooked manner. It was obviously a child's handwriting.
The more Jian Feng watched, the more touched he became.
Wang Mengmei did find some large words written in black pen on the wall.
"Capital University."
Wang Mengmei said happily: "The daughter of this family has been admitted to a good university. Let's move in and ask Jian Li to live in the house as well, so that she can enjoy the culture of this family."
The couple lives in the north-facing bedroom, and the south bedroom is given to Jian Li.
On the balcony connected to the living room, Wang Mengmei was preparing to replace the windows.
"These uneven windows are no longer popular. Let's change to smoother glass."
…
After I bought the house, I only had a few thousand dollars on hand. Fortunately, I didn't need to buy anything big with this few thousand dollars, but just did some repairs.
Jian Feng went out to buy some paint and painted the house white himself, then hired someone to make furniture. The floor in the house was also painted, and it cost a lot of money to buy the floor.
Jian Feng thought, no wonder Wang Liming said he wanted to do the flooring business, this thing really makes money.
Workers were hired to clean up the house, and Jian Feng's coming and going to the grinding wheel factory was seen by others.
Soon, many people knew that he sold the first floor of his house and bought a grinding wheel factory.
Xiao Shi and others could no longer sit still, they had all seen the recent change in the factory's attitude, before Auntie had made such a fuss, but afterwards the factory had slowed down.
No one came to negotiate terms, and no one paid any attention to Auntie and the others.
Auntie, who was once so determined, suddenly became uncertain. She kept asking about the companies that had signed the contracts, and her words were full of inquiries.
Xiao Shi originally thought that he would only have a month to buy a house, so he was not in a hurry.
But seeing the situation in the factory, he and a few other people decided to follow Jian Feng's approach.
With so much money in the account, more and more people have come to ask for loans recently.
Xiaoshi looked at several houses and quickly decided on one.
Perhaps they had anticipated the final outcome, and these people all had faith in Jian Feng.
After counting, only a few people chose the cotton spinning factory. Most of them, like Jian Feng, bought houses in the courtyards of grinding wheel factories, cement factories, and railways. There was also the most outrageous one who actually bought a house directly in Renjiazhuang.
"My wife and I are both on leave, so I might as well set up a stall in Renjiazhuang. There's going to be a train station here, right? I'll just sell food at the entrance of the station."
Everyone had different choices, and they quickly decided on a house and started renovating the new house in preparation for moving in.
Jian Feng also received a call from Wang Liming.
Wang Liming did not point out Xu Jianguo's mistakes on the phone. He only said that Xu Jianguo could no longer stay at the construction site and was sent back.
"Brother Feng, have you seen Xu Jianguo recently?"
Jian Feng nodded, and he met Xu Jianguo the day after he returned.
But it was of no use. Xu Jianguo just blindly listened to Sun Yan. If Sun Yan didn't let him sell the house, he would not sell it.
Wang Liming breathed a sigh of relief and decided not to introduce anyone in the future.
"That's good."
"Brother Feng, everyone has his own destiny. Now I understand this."
You just can't pull up that person who is like rotten mud.
