Siheyuan: I Raised Ten Thousand Wild Boars

At ten o'clock in the morning, an announcement came through the textile factory's loudspeaker.

“Leap into a new era and build a new home!

With our joint efforts, the textile factory has reached a new peak. With the efforts of workers at all levels, our textile factory finally has its own vegetable garden and granary.

After the decision of the factory committee, the textile factory farm was formally established: Nanjiao Farm, temporarily under the leadership of the Logistics Department, a branch-level unit.

Comrade Li Guohua from the Logistics Department is an expert in production and a model in learning. He has always been conscientious in completing his work and has been well received and affirmed by everyone. After research and decision, Comrade Li Guohua was appointed as the director of Nanjiao Farm. Let us learn from Li Guohua together! "

Finally I became an official. It’s not about the treatment, it’s too difficult for a commoner like me. Li Guohua was a little excited.

After thanking the leaders of the Logistics Department, Li Guohua came to the Technical Department. This was his old private territory. Section Chief Wang Li was one of the giants in the factory, so he had to build a good relationship with him.

Wang Li said jokingly: "Li Guohua, you should be re-examined after three days of absence. You have done great things!"

At first he thought it was just a small vegetable garden. At today's meeting, Zheng Aimin talked about the scale of the farm and its future development direction. Only then did he realize that Li Guohua had quietly made such a big move.

"Chief, thank you, otherwise I wouldn't be where I am today!"

Li Guohua also heard from Zheng Aimin that Wang Li was the first person to vote in favor of this farm appointment.

"You don't have to thank me. You have achieved all these by yourself! Besides, how can you say that you graduated from my technical department? If I don't help you, who else can I help?"

"Chief, I have set up two tables in Dongxing Building. We will have a gathering together in the evening. You must come!"

After receiving a positive response, Li Guohua notified the people in Group 1 and Group 2 of the Technical Department and told them to have dinner with the section chief. Finally, he went to Group 3.

"Guohua, how did you become a cadre?"

Tian Songlin, who is a dull technician and still young, doesn't have many cunning ideas, so he is a little confused about this.

"Songlin, Guohua has achieved success through hard work. He has reclaimed the farm with his hoe, otherwise why didn't he send someone else to go there!" Cao Daguo patted Li Guohua on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Master, please stop making fun of me!"

My family knows my own business, and I haven’t really done any farm work.

After drinking with everyone for a while, I told them about the meal, and everyone said they wanted to eat at a rich restaurant.

After dealing with everyone in the textile factory, Li Guohua came to Jiaodaokou Street Office again. Yes, he came to solve the housing problem.

He originally wanted to wait until after his marriage to ask the textile factory to allocate a separate dormitory for him. However, the housing management department of the factory told him that there was really no housing available and many section chiefs were still waiting, so Li Guohua's plan fell through.

Housing in textile factories is very tight now. Staff dormitories are large and several people live together. Many workers go home at night.

My relationship with Zhao Yunxia is getting closer and closer, and I plan to take her home to visit in a few days, so the housing issue must be put on the agenda.

After Li Guohua was injured, Director Wang of the Subdistrict Office personally visited him at home twice. After he recovered, Li Guohua also came to the Subdistrict Office to express his gratitude twice, as if he was familiar with the place.

I arrived at the street office, chatted with the gatekeeper for a while, and then went to the office of the director Wang Qiuju.

"Guohua is here. Is your recovery good? Are you adapting to the work in the factory?"

Wang Qiuju was very surprised to see Li Guohua, and happily asked him to sit down.

Li Guohua put the torn sack on the ground and said with a smile: "Aunt Wang, I'm fine. I have a good job. I'm working in the logistics department of a textile factory now! I went to the countryside today and saw two rabbits crashing into a tree stump. I brought them here for you to try!"

Faced with Director Wang's enthusiasm, he always seemed a little uncomfortable, after all, the other person was equivalent to a department-level cadre.

"Tell me what's the matter. Why are you giving your Aunt Wang this treatment?" Wang Qiuju looked at the torn sack and said with a smile.

Although hares don’t have much oil, they are still meat. The two children at home have been asking for meat more than once, but apart from taking some oily dishes back from the canteen, there is no way to get extra meat.

"Aunt Wang, there are too many people at home, and it's a bit inconvenient to live here. Don't we have an empty house in our yard? I want to rent it!"

"There are too many people at home, and it's inconvenient to live here? Are you dating someone? Someone from the factory?" Wang Qiuju asked with a smile

When Li Guohua saw that the other party had guessed it, he smiled and nodded.

"Okay, you are so quiet, wait, I will help you take a look."

As Wang Qiuju spoke, she turned around, picked up a thick document book from the table beside her and started flipping through it.

"No. 95 compound, um, there are two back houses in the front yard, an ear room in the middle yard, and a back room in the back yard. They all don't seem very good. Which one do you want, the ear room or should I help you find one?" Wang Qiuju said as she flipped through the book.

In a courtyard house, the back house facing the street has no windows and has a bad orientation, so it gets no sunlight all day long, and generally few people are willing to live there.

The rear room is similar, but it faces south and backs north, which is better than the back room.

The ear room is a small room added next to the main room. It is half the size of the main room and half is used for storage.

"Aunt Wang, why don't we move to the back house, so that the whole family can still live in the same yard!" Li Guohua said after thinking for a while.

Li Guohua was unwilling to live in another courtyard. The Siheyuan was already messy enough, and moving to another courtyard would be far away from his family, making it difficult to take care of them in the future.

I can't accept the back room because it's next to a deaf old lady. If she keeps calling me at night and doesn't sleep, I'll be annoyed to death. Besides, the confidentiality is too poor.

If it's an ear room, it's next to Shazhu. Oh my god, this is even more uncomfortable.

If it doesn't work, just use the back house. It's okay if it's not that bad. Spend some money to renovate it and it shouldn't be too bad.

"The house at the back of your courtyard has not been occupied for some years, and the roof seems to be leaking. You should think carefully about it. Do you really want it?"

Wang Qiuju was a little surprised. Many people had seen those two houses, but in the end, none of them wanted them.

"Just the back house. I want both of them. I'll spend some money to renovate them and they'll be no worse than the others!"

Li Guohua was, after all, a formal employee with sufficient qualifications. In addition, the two back rooms were dilapidated, so there would be no problem for him to get what he wanted.

"Okay, then I will register for you. There is no furniture in the room, so you don't have to charge extra. Just 12 yuan per year for two rooms!" Wang Qiuju said as she registered.

Many of these houses in Old Beijing were previously privately owned, but due to the war, the original residents either died or fled.

In the past few years, in order to solve the housing problem of the people in Beijing, the state requisitioned all unoccupied private houses and rented them out uniformly by the streets. The rent was calculated according to the area of ​​the house and the furniture in the room, which is also the origin of long-term rental housing.

The main reason is that the textile factory is here and the superiors have not allocated any real estate, otherwise the factory could allocate housing for free.
