After the Standing Committee meeting this time, the big guy understood that Secretary Xiao is not usually easy to get along with, unlike some leaders who have a dead face at any time, but as long as he decides something, it is best not to go against the grain, unless you are more powerful than Secretary Xiao.

This time, the Standing Committee was the first time since Xiao Chen took office that the authority of the district party secretary was unmistakably declared, and in the most straightforward way, the sky in Dingqing District could not be overturned. For several days in a row, the cadres of all sizes in the district party committee organs did not dare to speak loudly when they saw him, but whenever they stepped forward to say hello, the smile on their faces was brighter than flowers.

However, Xiao Chen reflected on himself afterwards, Zhang Bangcheng was more cooperative with him before, why did he choose to be strong this time? He pondered for a while, and suddenly understood that people were worried that they would be marginalized, for fear that all the credit books would be Secretary Xiao's private seals, and there would be nothing to do with him District Chief Zhang.

Xiao Chen wanted to understand this, and he knew how to deal with things. The next day, the district organized the "Ten Cities Joint Creation" inspection team, and according to the usual practice, Xiao Chen, the secretary, also served as the team leader, but in fact, all the affairs were basically handed over to Zhang Bangcheng. And in front of everyone at the mobilization meeting, it was emphasized that District Mayor Zhang had full authority to deal with the "joint creation" inspector matters, and the relevant units must cooperate closely.

Zhang Bangcheng was very happy when he got this important thing to do. The municipal party committee is now focusing on this "ten-city joint creation", as long as he wins glory for Langliu in this matter, isn't it better than anything? Moreover, it is good to engage in the economy, of course, if there is a situation, it is not a joke, how can it be easy to grasp health and civilization? Although it was a little harder, I had to check here and there often, but it was safe. Isn't being an official just paying attention to a stable word?

Early in the morning of the 11th, Xiao Chen was still sleeping, and received a call from Yue Xiaolian, saying that she had arrived in Dingqing. Xiao Chen looked at his watch, it was only 8:10, and it was estimated that this little girl must have come from the early morning bus. At this time, the minibus from the countryside to the city generally starts running at six o'clock on the first trip.

Xiao Chen asked her where she was, Yue Xiaolian said that at the station, Xiao Chen felt that she was still a little confused, and she didn't want to go out in a hurry so early, so she asked her to come to the dormitory building of the district party committee first.

After a while, Xiao Chen had just brushed his teeth and washed his face, when the phone rang again, and it was a call from the doorman. It turned out that after the doorman saw Yue Xiaolian, he didn't know who she was, and when he asked, he actually came to find Secretary Xiao, and he was startled at the time, but he didn't dare to let people in at will, so he called to ask. Xiao Chen naturally asked the doorman to release him.

When Yue Xiaolian came in, Xiao Chen was just dressed neatly. Yue Xiaolian was wearing a light purple jacket with a creamy white fine wool knit underneath, and jeans with small flares on the bottom. This is a typical young girl's outfit, college students and young girls who have just joined the work are almost in this style, but today's Yue Xiaolian standing in front of Xiao Chen made him feel that only a semester had passed, and she seemed to be a lot younger. This is not the change brought about by this outfit, Xiao Chen looked at it, but felt that it was a change in temperament. Perhaps, when she went to Huaxia University, she was much more confident in her heart.

"Brother." When Yue Xiaolian saw Xiao Chen, a sweet smile appeared on her face.

"It's cold outside, see your face is frozen red, come in and warm up." Xiao Chen smiled and opened the door.

As soon as Yue Xiaolian came in, Xiao Chen looked at the two small snakeskin bags she was carrying, and said curiously, "What is this?" ”

Yue Xiaolian's face flushed slightly: "This is some local goods that my father and mother want me to bring you, that is, some local eggs and winter bamboo shoots." ”

Xiao Chen smiled dumbly: "I don't need it, I rarely fire here." When he said this, he didn't know how, but there was a sense of loss, he used to fire here, but that was done by Yan Weiyu, since the day Xu Fei had an accident, now she is less here, and she also came when Xiao Chen was not at home, feed the dog and leave.

Yue Xiaolian lowered her head, and she didn't know whether to put down or hold the things, and stammered a little: "I, I also told them not to prepare...... Brother, am I very dirty? "When she was at the door just now, it was because she was holding two small snakeskin bags in her hands that the doorman was a little suspicious. Originally, the doorman saw that Yue Xiaolian was pure and beautiful, and her dress was not outdated, so he didn't think there was anything wrong, but when he saw the two small snakeskin bags in her hand, he was suspicious, because this thing is basically only used by rural people, why would the people who came to find Secretary Xiao use this kind of thing?

Xiao Chen laughed: "What is soil?" Is the cave soil dirty? Didn't you win the gate valves in Jinning Stone City? ”

Yue Xiaolian was a little happier, but still a little hesitant: "But don't you need it?" ”

Xiao Chen smiled: "I naturally don't need it alone, I'm too lazy to fire, but maybe I can use it today." ”

Xiao Chen said, and beckoned Yue Xiaolian to put things in the kitchen, and then sat down in the living room.

"How are you studying?" Xiao Chen, this brother, really looks like a brother.

"Well, that's good." Yue Xiaolian nodded.

Xiao Chen asked again: "Are you still used to living in school?" ”

"Well, it's a pretty good environment." Yue Xiaolian still nodded.

Xiao Chen smiled, although Huaxia University is one of the best in China, but the dormitory at this time is not very good, it is a little better than ordinary universities, but I think Yue Xiaolian has relatively low requirements for these conditions, so I think it is good.

"Did you bring your household registration book?" Xiao Chen smiled and asked about business.

Yue Xiaolian hurriedly took out the household registration book from the small canvas satchel she was carrying, and said, "Bring it." But when Xiao Chen stretched out his hand to take it and take it, Yue Xiaolian hesitated and didn't give it to him.

Xiao Chen was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "What, I'm afraid I'll sell you?" ”

"Not really." Yue Xiaolian was a little arrogant: "Yes, it's the photo that's so ugly...... Brother, don't you see it? ”

Xiao Chen smiled dumbly and waved his hand: "Okay, okay, don't look at it." Then he smiled again: "Actually, this inch of the photo, that's it, it seems that you have to shine an ugly picture of an originally beautiful person to be qualified, and it is said that it is called a clear and obvious facial feature." ”

Yue Xiaolian sneered, let go of a little, and nodded: "That's it, I've seen almost all the one-inch photos are just as ugly." ”

Xiao Chen nodded, pointed to her household registration book, and said, "I'll take you to buy a house in a while." ”

Yue Xiaolian was stunned and hesitated: "Buy a house?" But my heart jumped violently, could it be...... Xiao Chen snorted.

In fact, the background of the housing reform is different in large, medium and small cities, and various government agencies, enterprises and institutions. The early 90-92, the late one dragged on to 99 years, in general, the big cities started early, the small cities started late, and the time period basically spanned the entire 90s. Although Langliu is not developed, but it is also close to the spirit of the central government, last year, that is, the year when Xiao Chen came to Dingqing, Langliu began to reform, Dingqing District is close to the urban area, basically can be regarded as a piece of continuation, there are some commercial houses, but relatively few, and the house type is relatively monotonous.

This housing reform, experts have their own opinions, what "start monetization distribution", "promote the development of the housing market", there are thousands of sayings, but the people do not understand so much, in the eyes of ordinary people, the only content of housing reform is: pay a lump of money, get the property rights of self-occupied welfare housing.

In fact, according to the view of more than a decade later, most people believe that the 90s was "the most important stage of the formation and solidification of social classes" since the reform and opening up. ”

In the eighties, it was open and lively. To be honest, the first people to benefit in the early 80s were not the people inside the system, but a group of people who were outside the system, bold, and active.

First of all, the rural areas have undergone the greatest changes, especially in the eastern, central, and southern rural areas where natural conditions are good, and the peasants' living standards have improved the fastest, because agricultural products can be sold for money and can be bought at affordable prices.

Around 86 years ago, the income of urban workers was less than 100 yuan, but it was not uncommon for "10,000 yuan households" in rural areas to make a fortune by breeding and planting fruit trees. 10,000 yuan, for people who ate dead wages at that time, was the income of not eating or drinking for more than ten years, considering that the low salary caused most of the income to be used to survive, and therefore the ability to save is low, in fact, it is completely possible that you will not be able to save this amount for a lifetime!

In addition to farmers, self-employed people were also the first to find gold in the market economy. Of course, a large proportion of self-employed farmers also go to the cities, and the two groups overlap. On the one hand, they dare to be the first in the world, on the other hand, they have no formal work and no worries, they can fight hard, and the shortage under the planned economy in China has lasted for a full thirty years, the market is blank everywhere, there are opportunities everywhere, people's demand for various commodities can be described as hunger and thirst, as long as you find the market, no, you don't need to find it at all, it has almost reached the point where you will make a fortune by doing any business.

And people in the system, it seems that the rise in wages will never catch up with the self-employed, from 50 to 60, from 70 to 100, and may not be able to catch up with the amount that people earn in a day. At that time, there was a saying, "Those who build missiles are not as good as those who sell tea and eggs, and those who hold scalpels are not as good as those who kill pigs." This phenomenon is what this refers to. People have eaten the fruits of the market economy, and you still pay wages according to the number of the planned economy in your system, so of course the gap will come out.

So, in the late 80s and early 90s, things gradually changed, and people in the system began to try to use the power in their hands to get a piece of the market tide, and the dual system of planned economy and market economy gave them the first opportunity.

As early as the mid-to-late 80s, there was such an advanced means as "approving strips". Steel, motorcycles, color TVs and other sought-after goods, the ex-factory price is set by the state under the planned economic system, such as a Panda brand 14-inch color TV, the ex-factory price is about 640 yuan, and the sales price is the market price, which can reach 1200, and there will be nearly double the profit when it changes hands!

However, you take 64,000 yuan to find the panda factory and want to wholesale 100 color TVs to make money, and people have a hand: what about the strips?

What, no strips? Are you entertaining uncle? Go and go, get out of the way!

Didn't you say it earlier,The ex-factory price comes according to the system of the planned economy,The sales procedure is also according to the plan,You have to have a national plan,In order to get the color TV at the factory price,In order to earn that generous price difference!

Xiao Chen is clear about this situation, there are many children of powerful people, who later became big "officials and businessmen", basically they all earned the first pot of gold from the batch of slips at first, and they didn't even need to bother to purchase, transport, and sell goods, just sell them to real businessmen one by one. For example, the strips of 100 panda color TVs,Containing(1200-640)×100=56000 yuan of profits,After a certain prince gets it from his father or his father's old colleague and subordinate,Just sell the strip to a businessman for 50,000 yuan,Leave 6000 profits for the businessman,He is grateful to Dade Thank God,The businessman has to work hard to transfer、Sales,But the prince didn't do anything,It got 50,000 for nothing!

To be honest, Xiao Chen understands those who have done this kind of thing, these people were originally from good backgrounds, the so-called "roots are good", but after a period of time, they found that they didn't earn as much as some businessmen who had never read, so they were dissatisfied, so they "found a way". It's just that understanding is understanding, but approval is not. Xiao Chen always felt that since he had already enjoyed the preferential treatment of social status, why should he use this privilege to make profits? Other businessmen make money, which is earned by hard work according to the rules, why do you rely on the face and power of your grandparents, parents, and parents to directly exchange money?

"Commercial housing? It's so expensive. Yue Xiaolian was a little at a loss: "I heard people say that it will cost tens of thousands, I, I ......"

Xiao Chen knew that she was wrong, and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'll take the money." ”

Yue Xiaolian has no concept of the salary of the "big leader", which is not surprising, and ordinary people more than ten years later will not know what the salary of the secretary of the municipal party committee and the secretary of the provincial party committee is, let alone her who has just come out of the countryside. In her impression, Xiao Chen is the secretary of the district party committee, of course, the richest in the district, so when she thinks about it, she is actually relieved. didn't know that if Xiao Chen knew about this idea, he would have to die of laughter.

Xiao Chen took the passbook and came out with Yue Xiaolian, the black Santana car had already been parked underneath. This is what Xiao Chen asked Lao Han to put the car here last night, saying that he had something to do tomorrow.

At this time, there are not many people who buy houses, and most of the people who go to buy houses are businessmen, and during this period, although these people are secretly envied by some people in the system who get dead wages, they are actually not valued by people in the system. After so many years of public ownership, it is true that the social status of people without "units" has not been correspondingly improved.

So when Xiao Chen called Director Zhao directly to the Housing Authority two days ago, Director Zhao looked at the caller ID and found that none of the cigarettes in his hand were properly held, and his pants were burned. -- He didn't know what Secretary Xiao was calling for, and his intuition thought that Secretary Xiao knew about him receiving kickbacks. But he didn't think about it, even if Xiao Chen really knew, how could he call in person, this was Li Yunxin's matter.

As a result, Director Zhao had a false alarm, and it turned out that Secretary Xiao asked him about the commercial house, saying that he had a friend who wanted to buy a house. As soon as Director Zhao heard that Secretary Xiao's friend was buying a house, Secretary Xiao personally called and asked, where did he dare to slacken! Hurriedly checked, and then asked Secretary Xiao for some instructions.

In fact, Director Zhao mentioned that the commercial housing should be calculated according to the welfare housing, so that the house of 50,000 or 60,000 yuan can be obtained at a price of almost 10,000 yuan, and Director Zhao will naturally get it. However, how could Xiao Chen care about the tens of thousands of yuan, and he didn't break it at the moment, but just pretended not to hear what Director Zhao meant.

Everyone says that the efficiency of work in the system is low, but in fact, it is different after getting the attention of the leaders, and the efficiency is not ordinarily high. Director Zhao didn't get any certificates or materials, so he had already helped Xiao Chen book the house, and then personally sent the key to the district party committee. The status of the Real Estate Bureau was not prominent at this time, Director Zhao drank a cup of good red robe at Secretary Xiao's house, and when he came out, his face was oily and refreshed, and he didn't need to yell "Super Saiyan Transformation".

Xiao Chen started the car, drove out of the district committee, and headed to the side of the Tingjiang River. He set a house in the Tinglan community. Tinglan is naturally taken from the meaning of Tinglan. So this community is also close to the river. However, at this time, the community has just begun, and the property and the like are still very non-standardized, and there are no courtyard wall security measures that have begun to be implemented in those big cities.

Xiao Chen drove the car to the third building, came out with Yue Xiaolian, and then looked up and pointed to the room on the left side of the third floor of the third unit, and said, "Oh, that's it, let's go, go up and have a look." ”

Yue Xiaolian looked at her surroundings and asked, "Brother, it's quite quiet here." ”

Xiao Chen smiled and nodded, didn't he just look at the fact that it was still relatively quiet here? Besides, it is facing the Tingjiang River again, open the window, and the scenery is also good.

The two were walking towards the corridor, but there was a couple in front of them with their backs to Xiao Chen and the others, talking as they walked. The woman seemed to be a little unhappy, and said loudly: "His surname Huang has only been working for a few years, and he has the money to buy a house?" Aren't you following the right people? Now that I'm angry, I don't take you seriously? You are also useless, isn't it easy to get a social housing index? Do you want to come out to buy a house and spend tens of thousands of dollars more? ”

The man's back Xiao Chen seemed a little familiar, but he didn't remember who it was for a while, and then he heard him speak: "What do you know?" Now Dingqing is not the same as before, and now the surname is Xiao! District Chief Zhang has to be a man with his tail between his legs, how old am I? Now is not the time to swagger! What's wrong with Huang Rui buying a house, yes, his salary is only five or six hundred a month, but can't people borrow money first? What is his current identity, and what relatives and friends will be reluctant to lend him money to buy a new house and get married? How big is this favor? Don't just know how to shout all day long! ”

Xiao Chen slowly stopped, his heart moved, it turned out that Huang Rui was about to get married, well, think about it, he said that he would get married this year some time ago, but he forgot about it.
