Siheyuan: There are seven fairies in my house, I am so busy

Don’t be fooled by the fact that this small room is so cramped. It’s because he is the only man in his family. The women in other families are all crowded together, making it difficult for them to even turn over in sleep.

So now he urgently needs a house. It is easier to find a house now. As time goes by, houses will become more and more scarce, and it will become more and more difficult to get a house.

Now is the best time, and he set his sights on one of the two back houses in the courtyard.

"Aunt Zhao, I need your help with something."

Director Zhao saw Zhang Jialiang asking her for help in a serious manner. Although she didn't know why, since Zhang Jialiang had brought it up, she had to show her attention.

"What's the matter? Tell me, Aunt Zhao will definitely do it for you if she can."

Although Zhang Jialiang had indeed helped her a lot recently, Director Zhao also had some reservations and would not agree to everything, so her answer was still very clever. If it could be done, she would do it, and if it couldn't be done, there was nothing she could do.

"Look, didn't my eldest sister and little niece move back home a while ago?

Now there are 11 people in the family and there is only one east wing. It is really too crowded for the whole family to squeeze together.

I just want to ask Aunt Zhao if she can find another room for us. There are indeed many people in our family, and as our brothers and sisters have grown up, the space at home is getting smaller and smaller. "

When Director Zhao heard that Zhang Jialiang wanted to help with the housing issue, she began to look embarrassed.

It is indeed difficult to find a house. More and more people are looking for houses. Many people in their street have approached her more than once, but there are very few vacant houses. She is like a good cook who has no resources to help.

But since Zhang Jialiang had already spoken, she had to give him some face, otherwise it would be difficult to get along with him in the future, and she would have to ask Zhang Jialiang to provide prey for their family. She thought about it carefully and suddenly her eyes lit up.

"Liangzi, your request really makes Aunt Zhao feel very difficult. There are too few houses now, and too many people who need houses.

But now that you have asked, Aunt Zhao has to help you think of a solution.

That's what's going on. Aren't there two back houses in your compound?

Those two houses are somewhat damaged due to years of disrepair. In the past two years, many people who were eligible for a room have gone to see them, but none of them were willing to live in them. How about you choose one of them?

Although the back house is a bit run-down, it can still be lived in after some repairs.”

Of course Zhang Jialiang knew about the situation that Director Zhao described. His original target was one of the back houses, but the good houses had already been taken by others, so there was no way it would be his turn.

These two back houses are indeed in a lot of disrepair. If they are to be lived in, they really need to be repaired, which will cost some money.

But no matter what, this is also a house that can be lived in after some renovation. For those who don’t have a house, this is already very good. It will not be easy to find such a house in the future.

Of course he was overjoyed. He didn't expect that Director Zhao would really give him face and actually assign him a back room.

"No problem, Aunt Zhao. I also know about the two back rooms. They are quite good. We can live in them after some renovation. This solves a big problem for our family."

Seeing that Zhang Jialiang was satisfied, Director Zhao also breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, Zhang Jialiang had helped her, and now he was asking her for help. If she ignored him, it would be really difficult for them to get along in the future.

Besides, there is nothing wrong in allocating this back house to Zhang Jialiang's family. It is indeed in line with the regulations. Zhang Jialiang's family has many people, so it is reasonable to allocate another house to them.

The main problem is the two back rooms, which are indeed damaged. No one is willing to repair them, and those who are eligible for a room look down on them, so no one will say anything.

"Okay, since you are satisfied, let's do this. There are two rooms on the back wing. Which one do you want?

Let’s do it now if we have thought about it!”

Zhang Jialiang thought about it and decided there were two houses, one close to the courtyard gate and the other close to the hanging flower gate.

It is more suitable to choose the room on the side. That room is against the wall, and there is some space between the house and the wall of the front yard. If we choose that room, the space at the door can also be used. Also, the room near the gate is crowded with people, and it has no privacy. The main thing is that the damage to that room is less, so the cost of repairing it will be less.

"Let's take the one on the side, the one closer to the hanging flower door."

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll go and do the formalities for you."

After saying this, Director Zhao left the office and went to handle the rental procedures.

Of course, this house is rented. Zhang Jialiang will not choose to buy it now. Even the east wing where their family lives is rented. They did not spend money to buy it as a private house.

Nowadays, private houses are of limited use. It will still be possible to buy one after a few years of reform and opening up.

By that time, the price would not be much different from now, but it would mean something different to him. The money now is not the same as the money back then.

Generally speaking, users who rent houses in Beijing for a long time have the priority to buy houses. Buying a house now costs a lot of money and doesn’t make much sense.

Zhang Jialiang was very excited after getting a house. This was a property, and although it was rented, it was basically certain to be his.

In the future, a courtyard house within the Second Ring Road will be worth a lot of money.

He didn't expect that this matter could be accomplished so easily. This was beyond his expectations. He originally thought that this matter would take some time.

If Director Zhao does not agree to his request this time, he can only continue to build a closer relationship with Director Zhao and wait until the time is right to do it.

With this room, it can be lived in after some renovations, and the living conditions at home will be greatly improved.

The house is said to be one room, but in fact it is a suite, or two rooms, so it can accommodate three to five people without any problem.

I just don't know how much it will cost to renovate the house. I can ask Director Zhao when she comes back. She should know and at least be able to introduce someone who has the skills to renovate the house.

More than half an hour later, Director Zhao came back with three lease agreements and a female comrade who was about 30 years old.

"Liangzi, after you sign the lease agreement, this house will belong to you. Then let Xiaoqian take you to take possession of the house."

"Okay, thank you Aunt Zhao!

Sorry to bother you, Sister Qian!"

After signing, Zhang Jialiang kept one copy for himself and kept the other two copies for the street office. He asked Director Zhao about the house renovation:

"Aunt Zhao, if I want to renovate the house, who would be the best person to look for?

Do you know anyone here?"

“Yes, Old Sun from our street does this. He has good skills and people speak very highly of him.

You can go find him and ask Xiao Qian to take you with him and get it done along the way.

Xiao Qian, take Liangzi to Old Sun's place and ask him about repairing the house. If he's at home, you can take him over to have a look."

"Okay, Director. I understand."
