Chapter 203: Old Shop
The house in the old mansion was handed over to Mr. Shan, and Hong Yanwu was 100% relieved.
But the old shop in the back unexpectedly had a small twist and turn.
That is the manager of the sales department of the "Beijing Hongqi Factory", crying and shouting that he wants to re-rent the old shop of the Hong family.
After they moved away in a hurry, they never found a suitable place to do business. After going around for a while, I had to find it again.
In fact, to be honest, Hong Yanwu didn't want to rent it to them at all.
Yes, he claimed to his family that he wanted to rent out two old shops and use the rent to repair the house. But it was just a front to reassure the family.
Oh, could it be that he really went to the housing management office to register for the thousands of yuan a year?
Again, he has tens of thousands of dollars a month, and he still thinks about how to spend it every day, can he still care about that little money? Why does he bother to look for peas in quails and fat in the belly of mosquitoes?
On the contrary, if he is greedy for small profits, even if he pays taxes legally, in the eyes of others in this era, it will undoubtedly become a new crime of "getting something for nothing".
Although no one will engage in any more "criticism meetings" for this, it is always inevitable that "making a big splash" will happen.
If you don't say anything else, there must be people who commit "pink eye"? If a bunch of people have what they don't have every day, and wantonly arrange their own family affairs, no one will be awkward to listen to it.
What's more, those who spend money to rent shop houses are also public units. There is really a bit of a contradiction between the owner and the tenant, and it is easy to become the owner's fault.
Also, as the saying goes, "It's easy to please God, it's hard to send God", and he wants to reopen the old shop in the future and give his father some comfort. In case people refuse to leave at that time, it will also be troublesome.
Therefore, why bother? Hong Yanwu simply planned to pay for the repair of the house by himself, and he had no intention of renting it out at all.
However, despite this, the "Beijing Hongqi Factory" can be found this time, and it is not without reliance. Hong Yanwu really can't help but give this face.
Why?
Because Hong Yanwu's sister-in-law is a female worker in the printing and dyeing workshop of the "Beijing Hongqi Factory". The manager of the sales department didn't know where to inquire about this relationship, and he found the factory leaders to sum it up, and together they came forward to entrust Xu Manli to ventilate the family.
Don't you understand what that means?
So Hong Yanzheng told the situation, Hong Yanwu didn't make the eldest brother and sister-in-law a little embarrassed, and soon went to the housing management office with the manager of the sales department of Hongqi Factory to go through the procedures.
Even the rules and regulations, in full accordance with the national policy, with a lower price than before, one piece per square meter, the "Hongqi Factory Business Department" originally rented the "Yanmei Zhai" old shop to them.
This can make the leaders of the Hongqi factory and the manager of the sales department bad.
You must know that when the "Beijing Hongqi Factory" was established after the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was formed by the merger of several dyeing workshops opened by Shanxi merchants.
In fact, in this factory, even the factory director and the workers, most of the hometowns are in the poorest places in Shanxi, and Xu Manli is also a worker who can entrust people to enter the factory because of her family's hometown in Shanxi.
Just those "old Xi'er", they are used to living a hard life.
Whether it's your own or the public's, it's really money as money, the factory canteen rarely sees fine grains, even fried vegetables, and a habit with my hometown, all kinds of multigrain pasta, spicy seeds, aged vinegar, and syrup vegetables.
It must be that he feels that he is taking advantage of the sky and picking up gold ingots.
However, the Hong family did not suffer too much, and the shrewd Hong Yanwu did not forget to mention additional conditions in exchange.
One is that he asked both parties to sign the record with the housing management office, agreeing that the house can only be rented to the business department for a limited number of years. After about six or seven years, the Hong family will definitely take it back, and when the time comes, they will vacate the house, and they will be reluctant to move out.
The second is that he said bluntly that his sister-in-law's treatment in the factory has changed, and he can't always suffer in the printing and dyeing workshop. Their family used to be a "black five", but now it's different. It's time to adjust it.
So Xu Manli was transferred to the design room by the factory leaders to sit in the office. The future work is to specialize in the matching of ingredients in the printing and dyeing workshop.
That is of course much lighter than choking, fumigating, moving, and transporting goods in the workshop. As long as the machine is turned on before printing and dyeing, the dye ratio is set according to the requirements of the drawing.
Although it is occasionally necessary to supervise the workshop, it has not completely eliminated the "toxic operation". But this is also a helpless thing, after all, Xu Manli has been in the printing and dyeing workshop since she entered the factory as an apprentice, and she doesn't know anything else.
Anyway, this matter, in the end, the Hongqi Factory was very happy, Xu Manli was quite content, the eldest brother was very satisfied, and the parents also felt more at ease about repairing the house. So hello, I'm hello, everyone, Hong Yanwu pinched his nose and recognized.
However, Hong Yanwuke, another old shop "Yanmei Building", refused to rent it out easily no matter what, and he wanted to keep it for his own use.
It was a small courtyard of three small buildings, with a total of 400 square meters.
When I rented his sporting goods company, the first floor was used as a counter, and the second floor was reserved for the north side as an office area. Both the West and East buildings are stocked warehouses. Not only is the space particularly functional, but there are no fire hazards.
Outside the courtyard gate is the main street, which is convenient for carrying things. When the courtyard door was closed, no one could see what was inside. It's a perfect place to use as an enlarged piece.
With it, Hong Yanwu also has the conditions to do something he has been thinking about for a long time - collecting hardwood furniture!
Where can I take it?
It is still a trust store.
It's a really good place to say that the trust store is this year. Not only are there many treasures, but sometimes they are also classified for you to be quite professional.
At least there is such a trust shop in the east of the vegetable market entrance in Xuanwu District. Inside, it is 100 square meters and almost entirely old-fashioned furniture. What old tables, old chairs, old cabinets, old dressers.
These things are not the ones that the owner took the initiative to deal with and transferred at a low price when they were "four old". It was the "plagiarized materials" that were sent to the trust store by the various "revolutionary organizations" that were in full swing at that time in exchange for "revolutionary funds".
In addition, there is also the trust company itself, which has long purchased goods from other cities, tapped potential from government agencies and organizations, and purchased items from overseas Chinese and embassies.
Of course, among the furniture on sale, there are some writing desks, large wardrobes, double beds and so on.
However, such "simple" furniture is not only in line with the aesthetics of contemporary people, but also saves space, and the price is affordable, and can be bought by customers quickly.
Relatively speaking, the gorgeous and atmospheric old-fashioned furniture takes up space, not to mention, because most of them are hardwood, and the price is also higher.
In the social environment that called for "diligence and thrift" at that time, it was naturally regarded as "flashy and outdated things".
This view is actually very common, even a carpenter like Hong Yanzheng, who has a good master, doesn't he pay much attention to classical furniture?
Therefore, it is very suitable for Hong Yanwu to buy furniture in the store of the trust bank. Just pick hardwoods and buy them. That's not a leak at all, but a big copy.
For example, on the day when he came to the Caishikou Trust Store to buy furniture, when he took Chen Liquan into the door, an old man stared at the store there.
The old man's hair was half white. Sitting on the chair covered with gray cloth, smoking the "cannon" rolled by himself, you ignore him, and he doesn't raise his eyelids.
In addition, the furniture was stacked haphazardly and covered with dust. As soon as I looked at the posture, I knew that this was a cold yamen.
Hong Yanwu turned around twice, pointed to a two-meter-long wenge offering table, and asked.
"Uncle, how much does this thing cost?"
"Sixty-five!" the old man was so slow that he didn't even lift his eyelids.
Two minutes later, Hong Yanwu pointed to a treadmill Mazha that looked like Huanghuali. "Where's this?"
"Eight pieces of five!" the old man's tone was a little impatient.
Hong Yanwu then met the eyes of the two lamp hanging chairs of sour branches. "Uncle, how much does this pair of chairs cost?"
The old man couldn't help but look at him several times, and finally replied in a rather dissatisfied tone. "One hundred and one!"
But Hong Yanwu seemed to be ignorant of personnel, and before the words fell, he pointed to a set of dismantled shelves and beds and asked.
"Is this a complete set?
The old man was so anxious that he almost didn't jump up. "Hey, boy, are you okay to play with my cymbals?
Hong Yanwu looked innocent. "Buy, buy. I wanted to buy all these things just now, but the price was too expensive, so we had to discuss......"
The old man was amused when he heard it. "You still want to buy it? I'm not old, and my tone is not small. I'm not confused about you, you really want it, see if you ......"
With that, the old man pulled open the drawer and took out a notebook. "The public's purchase price is all on this top. How about I sell you for five dollars for the big one and two dollars for the small one? It's cheap enough......"
After speaking, the old man took a leisurely sip of tea, and only swept Hong Yanwu with his eyes, as if he couldn't afford it.
Because in the old man's opinion, these things are now no longer recognized, and although they can't be sold for a price, they can add up to hundreds of them. Especially the shelf bed, the purchase price is less than 200. Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan are young and young, and it is impossible for them to have this financial resources or this knowledge.
Hong Yanwu came to buy something, and of course he didn't want to be angry. When he heard this, he immediately laughed and handed over a cigarette.
"Uncle, don't say that, I don't mean to be angry with you...... The price you give is good. But if we do, then you won't be able to explain, and I really don't want to ......."
Hong Yanwu said a good thing. But the information is really asymmetrical. Add to that preconceived notions, and that's enough to create an ambiguous understanding.
Nothing else, these words sound to the old man, it is simply deliberately annoying, obviously shouting!
You must know that the people of Beijing do have the characteristics of the people of Beijing. Although most people in Beijing are good at tolerance, the most annoying thing is that someone is arrogant in front of them.
Not to mention that a random brick can be thrown at this boundary to smash the two directors, just by virtue of the sense of pride brought by the household registration system to the people of the capital. Now even if there is a tattered one under the root of the imperial city, he dares to tell you how about "master"?
Yes, we are not leaders, but we have seen many officials. What's there! Out of your yamen, who will pee on you!
So the old man took the cigarette. But when I heard this, the cigarette fell on the table again. Instead, he snorted angrily and immediately turned over the ledger.
While flipping it back, he muttered in his mouth.
"Boy, you're still sloppy with me, and you can't talk about cheap things, no way...... Tell you, don't you play with me! Your uncle, I talk about it, and I spit a nail in one mouth...... Look, that shelf bed is one hundred and eighty-three. Article ...... Forty-six, a pair of chairs seventy-two...... Maza is four pieces of three, adding up to a total of ...... A total of three hundred and five yuan three, Malier's, pay for it......"
At this time, Hong Yanwu had no choice, so he could only give Chen Liquan a look, and let Quanzi take out a pile of "great unity" from his arms in the old man's urging.
Hey, I really want to buy it!
Now the old man was dumbfounded. That face is called a wonderful. It's like hitting an evil spirit, and I won't roll my eyes.
But he can not be bad for others? This is his own trouble. It's unreasonable!
Thinking about it again, hey, it's not okay to regret it! Just after saying the hard words, this is equivalent to slapping your own big mouth in front of the two young people! Is it that you can't lose this face, or carry it!
So I had to grit my teeth, cold my face, and give a bill.
Unexpectedly, Hong Yanwu said it again at this time.
"Uncle, thank you. But I still want to buy something, do you want to take a pen and help me write it down, or do you use the ledger to tick it? I want a few flowers over there, two cases there, all the screens, interstitial screens, folding screens, and hanging screens in it. Where are there two Arhat beds? I want them too! You have enough things here, hey! There are chairs, rose chairs, square tables, round tables, square stools, bright cabinets, Bogu shelves, then I ...... them all."
Seeing Hong Yanwu pointing to the east and west, Chen Liquan next to him actually took out two more yuan.
Suddenly, the old man felt how his chest was so stuffy, his heart was beating faster, and he suddenly felt a pain, and "Gu Dong" fell softly on the chair.
Not only did my ears ring, but my eyes were also spent.
Later, he didn't feel anything, and he only heard Hong Yanwu screaming in a hurry.
"What's wrong with you...... You...... Are you angry, or are you scared? Don't, don't, we just talked about playing, it doesn't count. You have the final say...... Don't scare me! Open your eyes! Ouch, sin, you're really my uncle...... Quanzi, sip your saliva and spray him!"
