Chapter 24 Seeking a Room
Similar to the feelings of the "little daughter-in-law", during this time, Director Song and Director Chang were also "shocked" by Hong Yanwu's knowledge from his father.
Because although all units in the capital have responded to the higher-level policies conveyed by the municipal party committee, they have kicked off the prelude to large-scale construction. Each of them is ready to start building a house, and first solve the housing problem of some employees. But Hong Yanwu's judgment that there will still be a shortage of houses is to the point.
His reasoning was that in response to the "great man's" speech, the rush of projects would take up a lot of money, and there would be no way to replenish it in the future. In addition, depletion of building materials and lack of productivity are also very real problems. In addition, more and more educated young people who have returned to the city have reached marriageable age, and everyone urgently needs a house and a family. All these factors come together to make the house problem unsolvable. Housing shortage will continue to be a long-term social problem.
If you think about it carefully, neither of the two directors can help but admit that the logical reasoning is accurate and unique, and the situation faced is indeed the case.
However, Hong Yanwu deliberately asked them to talk about this, not to pretend to be shocking and show off. Instead, as an emotional reciprocation, he kindly reminded the two directors to make some plans for the future.
According to his opinion, the decline in the power of Director Song's yamen is difficult to reverse, and he has just risen to this position, so it is unlikely that he will continue to rise and change positions. Rather than spending effort on the career in the future, and blindly competing in power. It's better to get a few houses for yourself first.
As for Director Chang, he is nearing retirement. As the saying goes, if you don't use power, it will be invalid when it expires. If you don't think about it, you won't be able to catch up.
Of course, his kindness was not very smooth at the beginning and was fully accepted by the two families.
The Song family had already prepared a three-bedroom apartment for Song Guofu. Coupled with the fact that their own residence is also a three-bedroom apartment, they think that two houses are enough.
In particular, when Mrs. Song heard their discussion, she interjected, "What's the use of having more houses? Not only do you have to maintain and repair them, but you also have to pay rent." ”
This value standard made Hong Yanwu laugh all at once.
Of course, he knew what the old ladies cared about the most, so he said, "Auntie, the house is probably the most difficult necessity to buy with money and the easiest to solve with power." The division of rooms pays attention to seniority. Job title, length of service, education, and household registration are all quantified into scores, and then ranked according to the cumulative score. But in fact, it is not up to the leader to decide how to divide it? What is difficult for ordinary people is easy for you. This is the status quo of long-standing and uneven bitterness. ”
"Auntie, don't forget, the premise of the family planning policy is that the population is out of control, and the educated youth can't even get a job when they return to the city, which means that no matter how many houses there are, there are not many people. Why should the above encourage private people to buy houses now, isn't it because the distribution system cannot be carried out? If there is a change in the future, and it is said that public housing will not be allocated at all, then the first one will not take a big advantage? Won't those who do not get it suffer a big loss?"
"Also, you just see that little bit of rent, but you also have to think about it, you have to pay fifteen yuan a month for the basic bill of the telephone, so what is the rent of a few dollars? The housing authority wants to repair the sewer or heating for you, and this year's rent will be in vain. To put it bluntly, housing is the most scarce and cheapest necessity to rent right now. For a fraction of the price, you can get several sets. Isn't that a good deal?"
"Actually, you said the house is useless. That's when you don't know how serious the lack of rooms is down there. I'll tell you the truth, some of my friends have lived in one room for three generations. They have money in their family, but they don't have anywhere to get a house. When I bought a household appliance, I was worried about where it was. As for your vacant three-bedroom apartment, there must be someone willing to rent it at a high price, and I don't think it would be a problem to give you fifty dollars a month. If you want, I will contact you, we can say that we can borrow it from friends, and ensure that there is no basket at all, and we will never be honest. ”
In this way, Mrs. Song was really tempted. She couldn't help but discuss with Director Song and asked him if he could get a few houses.
Director Song was a little hesitant, he said that the Food Bureau wanted to build his own family building. Of course, there will be his share according to the rank. It's just that according to the current plan, only three buildings and 240 suites can be built. The secretary and deputy director of the bureau privately stated that they should first pay close attention to other cadres and workers and prepare to carry forward their style. He opened his mouth to ask for a room, for fear that his consciousness would be low and the impact would not be good.
But Hong Yanwu said it to him again at this time.
"Don't think so, in fact, the sooner you occupy a house, the better. Because when the shortage of houses is more scarce and everyone understands, things will be even more difficult to do. If you use your brains again, the impact will of course be even worse. Now is the time to get the least side effects. ”
"If you think about it again, it's better to occupy a house than to receive a gift, isn't it? But if you want to have a house, what kind of gift do you have? This is equivalent to you having extra money to protect your income from drought and flood. Just rely on the rent, and you can live better than anyone else. Even if you retire in the future, this house will not be returned, and you can eat it for a lifetime and pass it on to your children. How appropriate. ”
"In other words, one day there will be fewer people asking you to do something. Or the top began to grasp the discipline of cadres, and even collecting some cigarettes and alcohol was considered a mistake. So how are you going to live your day? You ponder the gap in between. Inside and out, where is the difference?"
Don't say it, it makes sense. Yes, Director Song pondered for a few days and decided to ask for a room. And since he started, he is not ambiguous at all. Directly stated, two sets of two-story three-bedroom apartments should be the best orientation.
That's not all, he allocated three two-bedroom apartments to the district government in the name of caring for the relationship unit. Privately, in exchange for the district government, a three-bedroom apartment in the service bureau was assigned to Mrs. Song's name. It is equivalent to getting three sets of large three-bedroom apartments for oneself at once. It's definitely a fat man.
The consequences of this are also interesting. As soon as the secretary and deputy director knew that Director Song was thinking of "hugging" the house, they were very happy in private.
Secretary Luo thinks that Director Song has no ambitions, and this move is a loss of prestige, which makes many employees have opinions, and I am afraid that his career will stop here. There is no longer the possibility of being promoted before you.
As for the deputy director, he also felt that the boss was a little petty, and the gains outweighed the losses. There's no need to show such greed, and gossip everywhere below. There are only a few people in your family, so why do you need so many houses? It is better to collect some household appliances to be affordable.
But in the future, Director Song has spent twenty years proving his shrewdness.
He did it in one step, and he never asked for a room with the bureau again. I have never received any more courtesy.
Hong Yanwu was a man of his kind and rented out all four of his suites. This time, the annual income has increased by 3,000, and the market has continued to rise, which is enough to ensure all the material needs of the Song family.
Needless to say, from now on, Director Song has been too confident as an official.
He can help people thoughtfully, and he doesn't take any benefits when he does it, and of course people are grateful to Dade. What can't be done, what can't be done, what can't be done, because he doesn't accept gifts, people can't blame him. Therefore, he not only gained a reputation as a "clean official" and "good official", but also ensured that he worked peacefully until retirement.
Later, the higher authorities investigated corruption and bribery, and abused power for personal gain, and the deputy director was dismissed. Or when building a new building, in order to compete with the leader, the workers have to allocate places, and some people even go to the secretary's new house with a gas canister, claiming that they will die with the secretary. Nothing like this could touch his head.
Even after retirement, Director Song and his family are still happy.
They don't depend on their children, they don't depend on retirement payments. Just by rent. You can still have a good car to sit in when you go out, and you can buy whatever you want. I also travel abroad at every turn, or go to Hainan to live for a while in winter. That economic chic energy has simply become the idol in the hearts of all the old cadres of the entire Food Bureau.
It was only then that shrewd people understood that they dared to love Director Song's game of "housing for honesty". Who would have thought that a few houses could be managed for a lifetime.
This is really a bit like Zhang Xinzhe's song, "Greed is just one word, I only commit it once, and I will only use the result to express the gain and loss."
The high cost performance of "seeking housing with power" like Director Song is really worthy of the word "legend".
