Rebirth of Minister Qi
Chapter 13: Buying a House in Beijing
"It's not that complicated. Everyone here is my brother. I'm used to acting like a grandson and being polite at work, so don't do that after work.
Do you have a mobile phone? Leave me your number. "
Qi Tongwei smiled awkwardly and took out his pager.
"Well, I'll give you a mobile phone, Lao Jin. My bag is next to you, and it contains the new Nokia.
You two can each have one. This is a new gadget, much bigger than the big brother. I just got it too."
"Hey, you came here just to show off.
Don't be polite with Ya Ting. His elder sister works in the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, so he always gets the first-hand information on these new things.
By the way, I heard that the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications is going to be reorganized. Do you know what the situation is?"
"My sister is also struggling with this. The three-fixed plan was issued last month, and it is said that her department will set up an independent enterprise bureau.
It's called China Unicom, but the entire unit is pitifully small, and she is struggling over whether to transfer out or stay where she is.
It is said that if you keep it, you will be promoted to the next level, after all, there are many positions but few people. "
Qi Tongwei was listening to the latest news while fiddling with the earliest model of Nokia he had just acquired. He suddenly remembered that in the course of history, this was indeed the year when the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications began to split up for the first time, separating out China Unicom. Later, due to the streamlining of departments, it developed rapidly.
"Brother Liu, thank you for your gift. I do have an opinion of my own."
Liu Wenjie looked at the new brother he had just met, not knowing what he thought. When he saw that he paused, he urged him.
"It's just the few of us, so let's talk it out."
“I personally think that the past Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications used the government agency model to operate its business, which was actually inconsistent with the new situation of reform and opening up and the development laws of the market economy.
The leaders must have seen this point, so they resolutely separated government and business, allowing enterprises to reduce their burdens and truly enter the market competition.
In addition, telecommunications is now the only dominant player with a complete monopoly. It is a bit too big, but facing the ever-changing market, competition is bound to be difficult to turn around.
If you have a choice, I suggest you go to a newly established unit. The department is small and new, which has obvious advantages.
The department is small, so as long as you choose a good helmsman, it can be operated like an arm and develop rapidly. And since the department is new, it can get a lot of policy support from above.
In fact, the success of many careers depends on the person at the helm. If the person at the helm is excellent, the career will naturally seize various opportunities and prosper. If the person at the helm is mediocre, the career will be ruined.
Besides, there are many positions now, but few people come. If you want to be promoted to a higher level, or even have more power in the department, these are all opportunities.”
Liu Wenjie sat in the main seat, listening to Qi Tongwei talking, without stopping to make tea.
"That makes sense. Let's not talk about this topic anymore. Pass."
......Dividing line....
After the dinner, Qi Tongwei had a glimpse of Jin Xinkai's true inner circle connections.

“By the way, brother, do you know any suitable houses for sale?
I want to buy a house for myself.”
Jin Xinkai thought about it.
"You probably can't afford it with your money. Those houses are sold to foreigners to earn foreign exchange. They cost one or two thousand dollars per square meter.
As for the other buildings, they are all old buildings of government units and are very small. It would not be suitable if they are too far away. Do I have to commute more than ten kilometers to work in the suburbs every day?
As far as I know, your company should allocate housing, but it may not be your turn this year, so just buy it, buy a good one.
Just buy a courtyard house. It’s cheaper, has more space and is in a good location. My friend has a courtyard house with two entrances that he wants to sell, and the tenants have all vacated it.
With a little renovation, the living space is larger, but not every room has heating, and there are only two toilets, so you have to go outside in winter.
Apart from these, I really like the courtyard house. I asked about the price and I guessed it would be about 700,000 or 800,000.
If you really want.
I'll lend it to you. I heard your novel is very popular now. Maybe you can pay it back in a year or two."
When Qi Tongwei heard the word "siheyuan", his heart started pounding. He had never thought that he couldn't buy a house even if he had money.
There are not many commercial houses near the major ministries in Beijing. The few that are available are export houses built during the Asian Games specifically to earn foreign exchange. The prices are ridiculously high, costing more than one thousand or two thousand US dollars in the 1990s.
Early the next morning, Qi Tongwei couldn't wait to contact Jin Xinkai and take him to see the courtyard house.
The two came to Beixiawazi Hutong, south of Andingmen, which is on the border of the North Second Ring Road and very close to Drum Tower and Shichahai. The location is very good.
“Don’t keep staring at that place. Those are students from the drama academy. This place is nice. Even if you don’t live here yourself, you can rent it to teachers or students from the drama academy.
To the west is the Drum Tower. I discovered this place when I was looking for your sister-in-law. Your sister-in-law is a teacher at the Drama Academy.
Someone came. This is the owner of the house, and also my old friend. He is thinking about selling this ancestral house and then going to the capitalist world. "
"Hello, hello, Lao Jin, this is your friend.
Let me take you in to have a look first.
There are no tenants in my area now. In the 1980s, the Housing Authority officially clarified the property rights, and they all moved out as soon as their leases expired.
Now I live here alone. My family is used to living in allocated apartments and are not willing to live in bungalows in these old alleys.
Plus, I'm also planning to go abroad, so I was thinking about selling it. Since you're Lao Jin's friend, the price can be negotiated, and we don't have to be taken advantage of by those unscrupulous middlemen.
As for the floor area, it is registered with the Housing Authority as being over 550 square meters, and the building area has also been measured, which is over 300 square meters, with about ten rooms and two courtyards, so there is no need to share a wall with others.”
The more Qi Tongwei looked at it, the more excited he became. People nowadays don’t know what’s good. Although the house is a bit old, it can be very beautiful if he spends a little money to renovate it.
"Boss, how much do you plan to pay?"
Sure enough, the homeowner smiled happily when he heard the boss's name.
"Well, someone came to see the house last month, and the price he offered was 1.1 million, but he was brought by an agent, so he had to pay an agent's fee.
You were brought here by Lao Jin, so we'll give you a friendly price, the same as the number of Liangshan heroes."
Jin Xinkai laughed when he heard it and then spoke.
"Hey, don't be so rude, but my name, Jin, is worth twenty thousand.
Look for yourself, this house is so old, there is heating in only two rooms, and the toilet is installed in the corner. You have to squat to go there in the middle of winter.
The price you quoted is too insincere. So, give me a real price.
Don't talk nonsense, I don't have the patience. "
