Siheyuan: I have super connections

Chapter 199 The quagmire

After dinner, Lin Xiuer followed Liu Guangtian back.

She said a little unhappily: "This meal costs more than ten yuan, which is such a waste. You have to know that this money is enough for us to eat for a month!"

Liu Guangtian smiled and said, "You don't have to worry, I have money."

"You can't spend it like this even if you have money. We will need money in many places in the future. Now that we have a house, we have to buy something. In the future, we will have to spend money when we have children. There are also various expenses for children's tuition fees. When they grow up in the future, I want to marry a wife when I grow up..."

Liu Guangtian smiled and said, "It's not even that long ago. You already thought about your children getting married. It's too early."

"It's not too early. This will all be considered in the future."

Looking at Lin Xiuer who was serious, Liu Guangtian was a little moved.

He said: "Don't worry, I will support you and your children. Okay, let's go back."

They returned to the courtyard and found Bai Jingxuan directly.

"Brother Bai, my wife just came here and she doesn't have a place to live. I want her to live in Ma Guan Hutong for a few days. Do you think that's okay?"

Bai Jingxuan thought for a moment and said: "There are no vacancies over there, they are all full of supplies. Let's go next door, I still have a house there!"

Liu Guangtian was shocked. He didn't expect that Bai Jingxuan still had a house.

Of course, Bai Jingxuan has more than one set in his possession. He owns more than ten courtyard houses, all of which he bought one after another in the past ten years.

Bai Jingxuan took them to the Maherd Hutong, next door to the yard where supplies were kept.

He said: "No one has lived here for a while. You can clean it up yourself. I don't charge you rent. You can live here as long as you want."

Liu Guangtian was very grateful and said, "Thank you, Brother Bai. Don't worry, we will move in as soon as Carpenter Wang's house comes out."

"Did you also apply for Carpenter Wang's house? It's a reversed house. It's cloudy and damp. You'll get sick if you live there for a long time. His wife and daughter are both in poor health. I think they'll get sick if they live there for a long time."

"I know, but the house is so tight these days, so it's not easy to handle."

"I suggest you go to the neighborhood and inquire about it more often. If someone wants to sell a house, buy it. Anyway, the money you make is almost enough. I can lend it to you if you need more."

"I will inquire, but how can it be so fast?"

"Okay, you stay here first."

Liu Guangtian still listened to Bai Jingxuan's suggestion, and the next day he went to the street clerk and asked about buying a house.

The clerk thought for a moment and said: "There must be no ready-made houses, but I have a suggestion."

"You said."

"Isn't there an abandoned courtyard near the courtyard where you live? Why don't you bring it over and build your own house!"

Liu Guangtian thought about it seriously and said, "Where can we find an abandoned yard there?"

"It's about 100 meters west of you."

"Ah? Isn't it a quagmire there?"

"It used to be a courtyard, but then it was bombed and turned into a pit. Over time, it turned into a quagmire."

"How much will it cost to build a house there?"

"We have done an evaluation before. It will cost more than 1 yuan to flatten the land and build a house."

Liu Guangtian immediately backed down. He only had a few hundred yuan, which was not enough to buy a house. If he was asked to spend 1 yuan to build a house, it would not be enough for him to sell it.

"Do you think I have this kind of money? Forget it, I'd better go to other streets and ask around."

Liu Guangtian didn't take this matter to heart, but the next day, he and Bai Jingxuan complained about it, and Bai Jingxuan immediately became serious.

Bai Jingxuan went to the street, found the street director, and inquired about this matter.

The street director said in surprise: "You want to build a house in that quagmire? Don't you have a place to live?"

"I asked for it on behalf of the food factory. They don't have enough dormitories for their employees. They want to build another one, but there is no space available."

Of course, Bai Jingxuan could not say that he wanted to build it himself. It was too shocking in this era.

In an era when the average deposit was only a few hundred yuan, no one would believe that he could actually spend 1 yuan to build a house.

He planned to put the house under the name of the food factory so that it would not be obtrusive.

Wait until the 90s to take back this house.

The subdistrict director was still surprised and asked: "You don't work in the steel rolling mill, why do you care about the food factory?"

"Director Liu and I are friends. I live here, so he asked me to ask. In the future, I may also be the manager of this house, and I will collect rent and other things on my behalf."

"That's right, I understand. Come on, let's go over there now. It will be much clearer to explain on the spot."

"Okay, let's go."

The two of them came to the mud pit together, which was a big mud pit.

It was bombed by the Japanese in the past, leaving a big pit. Later, everyone threw household garbage here, and with the water left by the rain, a dirty and smelly mud pit was formed here.

As soon as summer comes, the place is full of mosquitoes, causing serious harm to the people around.

Several times the streets tried to fill it in, but when they calculated the cost, they were all frightened. As time went by, everyone got used to it and stopped caring about it.

The street director said: "This area and the small forest behind it are all together. If you want to build a house, all these areas can be given to you. The total land is almost eight acres."

This is the capital city. If you own eight acres of land, you will be prosperous in the future.

Bai Jingxuan asked: "If this is built, who will own the property rights?"

"Whoever built it belongs to him of course."

“Then do you want to give your street some fees?”

The director thought for a moment and said, "How many rooms are you planning to build?"

"I plan to build four small buildings, one with five floors and four households on each floor."

"That's eighty households. In this way, if you give it to ten households in the street, the rest will be yours, and there will be no fees."

"No, ten households is too many, I'll give you two households at most!"

"Two households is too few, let's go to eight."

The two haggled for a while and finally settled on five households.

Of course, the streets only have use rights and no property rights. All property rights belong to the food factory.

While they were talking, several people from the courtyard came over curiously.

This place is only more than 100 meters away from the courtyard, and people in the courtyard have seen them long ago.

The third aunt asked: "Xiaobai, what are you and the director talking about here?"

"Oh, it's nothing. We are going to fill this place up and build a house!"

Everyone was excited when they heard about the house.

They gathered around and started asking questions.

"Xiao Bai, you want to build a house? How many do you plan to build?"

"Xiao Bai, you have built a house and you want to sell it or not. Why don't you sell one to me?"

"Xiao Bai, we are relatives, please give us a few houses!"
