Zhu Fanfan knew the house would be valuable in the future, so he said, "I won't take advantage of you. I'll give you 20,000 yuan directly. Don't refuse. You're getting older and will need money in the future! But let me be clear, the house may not be worth much now. After all, this is the capital. Our economy has already started to develop. Once it develops, it will definitely be a leap forward. The first thing to rise will be the house. Once you've thought it through, we'll transfer the ownership."
Chang Zhen laughed and said, "I'm also a teacher, so I know these things. I also know that the first thing after economic development is currency devaluation and rising housing prices. But I don't know when economic development will happen. You know I'm old, and I don't know if I'll live to see that time. Even if I do live to see that time, this decision is my own, and I will take responsibility for my actions."
Zhu Fanfan didn't know what to say: "We'll transfer the property tomorrow. Should I give you cash or a bank transfer?"
Chang Zhen was somewhat surprised: "Twenty thousand is no small sum. Can you raise it?"
Zhu Fanfan said, "You know my grandfather was a general and his salary was not low, but do you know that my grandmother's salary and benefits before she died were no less than my grandfather's? I am the only child in the Zhu family, and I have never worried about money. Besides, I also have a maternal grandfather who was a red capitalist. When they divided the family property, I went and received more than 100,000 yuan. I don't have much else, but I have a lot of money."
Chang Zhen stopped trying to persuade him: "I'll get everything tomorrow, and we'll meet at the housing management bureau."
Zhu Fanfan also said, "See you tomorrow."
After Chang Zhen left, Ming Laosan asked with stars in his eyes, "Sister Miaomiao, you're so rich! Your brother is still a penniless pauper! Please feed him."
You Muqing followed along, saying, "I'm broke too, I want to feed them too."
Zhu Fanfan looked at the two childish people and left with the plan, saying, "Get some rest."
The next day, Chang Zhen knocked on the door early and took his things to the housing management bureau. Nowadays, the management of housing transactions is not very strict, and with Zhu Fanfan giving him a box of high-end cigarettes, the process was completed quickly.
When Zhu Fanfan returned to the courtyard, she saw that some of the people who had caused trouble yesterday had come back. They lowered their heads and left without saying a word when they saw her.
Zhu Fanfan told Ming Laosan and You Muqing to go and negotiate. As long as no one is killed, anything goes. Anyway, You Muqing is also from the Dragon Group. As long as she shows her work ID and repeats what she said yesterday, who wouldn't give her face?
Soon, Ming Laosan and his companion returned. It was clear that their relationship had improved considerably; at least they were no longer at odds. Sure enough, as long as they had a common enemy, they would turn enemies into friends. Doing good deeds together might not make them so close, but doing bad deeds together would definitely make them intimate.
After staying at home for two days, the whole plan was in place. Zhu Fanfan was going out for some fresh air and to chat with the older women. As soon as she stepped out and greeted them, Aunt Huang and her group mysteriously pulled her aside. Aunt Huang asked first, "Fanfan, you work in a classified unit. Are you married?"
Zhu Fanfan answered truthfully, "Not yet."
Whether she was married or not couldn't be hidden, and she didn't intend to hide it, so she told the truth.
Aunt Huang immediately said, "Let me tell you, if you're not married, your superiors will think you're not reliable and won't entrust you with important responsibilities. A girl still needs someone to rely on. I have a nephew who graduated from university and has already entered a government agency, a classified one. He's only twenty years old, fair-skinned, and very polite..."
Before Aunt Huang could finish speaking, another aunt interrupted her: "Your nephew is not as good as my uncle's son. He's only twenty-two and already a section chief. He's the perfect match for Fanfan."
Zhu Fanfan said with a smile, "My workplace is quite strict. If any of you want to introduce someone to me, the higher-ups will investigate your ancestors for eighteen generations. They can even find out if you said a bad word about someone. In the past, my grandfather's friends also introduced me, but in the end, they either lost their positions or their reputations. I have to report who you are talking about, and the organization can only consider it after it has been investigated."
Aunt Huang felt a chill in her heart: "They can even find out if I say something bad?"
Zhu Fanfan said naturally, "My Zhu family is full of loyal martyrs. I work in a classified unit. The organization is afraid of people with bad intentions, so they have to investigate everything. There was an orphan who was investigated until his parents and family were found out that the family were spies. The whole family was arrested. There was another person who was good at his studies and came from a good family. He was arrested just because someone heard him say he wanted money when he was drunk during the investigation. They said he had capitalist behavior and he was to be sent to the countryside for education."
After hearing this, everyone gave up the idea of ​​matchmaking. They couldn't watch what they said, and no one could be sure what they might have said unintentionally. If they really sent someone to jail because of a single sentence, would it be a marriage or an enmity?
Zhu Fanfan pressed on, "What are their names, Auntie? I'll report to the organization, and once everything's settled, we can start dating."
Aunt Huang slapped her forehead and said, "Oh dear, look at my memory! My nephew from my mother's side said he has a girlfriend, but I forgot. I'll definitely introduce you to someone suitable when I find one."
Zhu Fanfan looked at another older woman, who immediately said, "I remember now, he's been married before, he's not good enough for you, we don't want someone who's not good enough."
Zhu Fanfan shook her head regretfully: "I wanted to find a few more who wouldn't have any problems! If you find any suitable ones, please save them for me. The people you introduced to me have all gone in, which is a real shame."
The older women: ...
Seeing the women's embarrassment, Zhu Fanfan shook her head and left; there was no gossip to be had today.
As soon as they returned to the courtyard, Ming Laosan came back: "Sister Miaomiao, my parents have agreed to let me help you."
Zhu Fanfan was surprised: "You're not joking, and you didn't get hit?"
Ming Laosan said smugly, "I told you that Grandpa Xie asked you to solve the problem of veterans, and you signed a pledge to open a transportation company. My dad offered to come and help you, saying that transportation involves dealing with men and he was afraid you would be bullied, so he asked you to take charge from behind while he would lead the charge."
Actually, he had just said he didn't want to work in the government and wanted to resign when his father came at him with a stick, hitting and scolding him, saying he was making a fool of himself, and that even if he was tough, he should be tough in his position. He said he could only resign if his father died. Only after being beaten did he have a chance to explain things clearly.
Upon hearing that he wanted to help Sister Miaomiao, her father agreed without hesitation. He even said that Sister Miaomiao might not have much time in the Dragon Group, so he should handle all the miscellaneous matters. He told her not to bother Sister Miaomiao unless necessary, and that if she messed things up, he would be the first to kill her. He didn't understand why, if Sister Miaomiao's biological mother hadn't never left Shanghai and her father hadn't been to Shanghai, he would have suspected that Sister Miaomiao was his biological daughter and that he was adopted.
