29. Onboarding

"That's right! You also have a conscience, you have a job, and you haven't forgotten to adopt your grandmother. Aunt Yu's vigilance against Zhao Xiaoling was completely removed.

"But without a house, I can't take my grandmother to me."

"You want to buy a house?"

"Yes! The factory is a collective dormitory, and the noise is loud. Not suitable for my grandma. Auntie, do you know if there is anyone in the neighborhood who wants to sell a house? Zhao Xiaoling felt that Aunt Yu was from the sub-district office, and she was more informed than others.

Aunt Yu thought for a while, pointed to the depths of an alley and said, "Not long ago, there was a family here who wanted to sell the house, but I don't know if it has been sold now."

Zhao Xiaoling didn't want to buy a house deep in the alley.

However, she wanted to know the price of the house at this time, so that she could plan according to her situation.

"Auntie, do you know how big the house is and how much the owner sells for it?"

"The house is not big, just two rooms, but there is a yard, the yard is very large, just you and your grandmother, enough to live, right? I heard that the price is more than 100 yuan. ”

Zhao Xiaoling shook her head, more than a hundred yuan is not expensive, I just feel smaller, now I and my grandmother are enough to live, but I have to think about it for a long time, I will start a family in the future, and this house will be much more crowded. Moreover, the house is deep in the alley, so it is not convenient to go home at night, and it is not convenient for my grandmother to go out, and she may not even be able to find the door to go home. ”

"Yes, yes, you think about it for a long time, at your age, you are almost going to talk about marriage, so to speak, this house is smaller, and the original owner is because the child is older, and the house is too small, so he plans to sell it and buy a bigger one."

"Auntie, can you help me think about it, is there anyone else who wants to sell the house?"

Auntie shook her head, "I haven't heard of anything else." ”

Zhao Xiaoling was a little disappointed, she thought for a while, "Auntie, do you live near here?" Can you help me find out who else is going to sell the house, I will come to you every once in a while, and if I buy a satisfactory house, I will pay you a little bit. ”

"For the sake of you being a filial child, I'll help you inquire a little, I work in the neighborhood office, and when you have time, go to the neighborhood office to find me, my surname is Yu. Don't talk about what you don't pay for. ”

"Of course, this is the best, thank you, Aunt Yu, please help me inquire a little, you work in the street office, it is more convenient to inquire, or that sentence, if I buy a satisfactory house, I will definitely pay you, everyone is busy, they have their own things to do, trouble you, delay your time, if the matter is done, I will give you ten yuan as a thank you."

At this time, people are ashamed to talk about money, but Zhao Xiaoling, who has experienced a lifetime, knows that most of the time, money is the easiest and fastest way to solve problems. People don't know each other all their lives, why should they help you worry about this? If you promise her a reward, she will be more proactive in helping you, and she doesn't have to owe someone a favor for no reason.

"So tell me what you want to buy? How big? How much is affordable? Zhao Xiaoling's generosity and the coming of the meeting also made Aunt Yu feel better.

"I only want the ones on the street, not in the alleys, this is the most important thing, and the houses on the street can be smaller, of course, the bigger the better. In terms of price, it is based on the market price. Of course, it also depends on the actual situation of the house. ”

"Okay, I remember, it's better to just have a bigger house on the street."

"Yes, please ask my aunt to help me inquire. My name is Zhao Xiaoling, and I will come to you in a few days to find out the situation. ”

"Okay, during work hours, I will be at the street office, and when you come to the office to find me at the point where you normally work, I will be there."

Saying goodbye to Aunt Yu, Zhao Xiaoling walked to the steel factory in a good mood.

She now has one hundred and twenty-five yuan in her hand, plus the fifteen yuan she originally saved, which is one hundred and forty yuan, so that she can at least buy a smaller house. If there is a larger one, find someone to borrow one.

Buying a house facing the street can start a small business, and you can kill two birds with one stone.

Zhao Xiaoling walked with her head down, planning for the future, when a shrill brake sounded next to her, and a police car stopped.

The window of the car rolled down slowly, and Wang Yuan's broad smile was revealed.

"Zhao Xiaoling, so early, get in the car!"

Zhao Xiaoling opened the back door and sat down.

The police car drove directly into the steel plant and stopped under the office building inside the factory.

The office building is a small two-story building, and the offices of the factory director and deputy director are in the innermost two rooms upstairs, and the finance department is next to them.

The factory director's surname was Zhang, a short and thin man in his fifties, his appearance was not good, his clothes were ordinary, and he walked on the street like an ordinary peasant, and the bureaucratic habits at that time were not as serious as those of later generations, and from the outside, there was not much difference between the government and the people.

The deputy factory director's surname is Li, chubby, smiling, and a kind young man.

may have said hello before, Wang Yuan and Zhao Xiaoling went in, and Director Zhang pointed directly at Zhao Xiaoling and asked, "Wang Yuan, is this this little girl?"

"Yes, she is Zhao Xiaoling, I brought the person, and I will have to take more care of your Director Zhang in the future."

"I heard you're already in high school? How old are you? ”

"I'm in my second year of high school, I'm sixteen years old, and I'll be seventeen in two months." Zhao Xiaoling was afraid that they would think she was young, so she added.

"People have very good academic performance, but they can't continue to go to school because of their family conditions, otherwise it will be easy to get into a university." Wang Yuandao.

How did he know what was going on at school? However, he is the captain of a reconnaissance team, and he knows that such a situation is not a trivial matter.

"That's it! Even if you are a person with a little culture, it just so happens that there is a lesbian in our finance department here who is going to give birth next month, so you take her place, you go and study hard with her, and let her take you for a few days. ”

At this time, Deputy Director Li said with a smile: "Let's go, I'll take you to Liu Lin and explain to her."

The group entered the finance department.

When the five people in the finance department saw the leader come in, they all stood up and greeted the leader one after another.

Director Zhang waved at them.

"Liu Lin, I brought you an apprentice, you take her well and teach her, so that you can go back to give birth with peace of mind."

Zhao Xiaoling nodded at Liu Lin, whose face was swollen and held up with a big belly, "Sister Liu, hello, my name is Zhao Xiaoling, and I will let you worry about it in the future." ”

Liu Lin didn't look at Zhao Xiaoling, but only said to Director Zhang: "Don't worry, factory director, I will definitely take her well."

Everyone said some polite words and went through the onboarding procedures.
