I Wore It Back After 60 Years

Chapter 213

After a day and night of counting, the staff made a report to Comrade Ouyang, and Zhao Haiyun was also present.

Zhao Haiyun's family property statistics are as follows:

金条180七公斤、银元36万八千520三枚、金银首饰二千230四件、珠宝玉器一千460八件、字画210六幅、瓷器铜器木雕等古玩320八件、美钞32万六千、港币75万八千三百、RMB现钞12万三千四百元，古今中西家具68件、各色药材补品十三箱、丝绸160九匹、各式布料76匹、各式皮草31张、四季衣裳360八件、棉花420斤、蚕丝五十斤、书籍五万八千430二册。

Only cars, bicycles, sewing machines, cameras, semiconductor radios, record players, desk lamps, flashlights, pots and pans, in-use furniture and furnishings outside the warehouse, as well as Zhao Haiyun's clothes, bedding, and daily necessities are not counted.

But with Zhao Haiyun's consent, these must also be registered.

Comrade Ouyang gasped after hearing this, "Comrade Zhao, are you sure you donate everything?"

"100% sure! All four cars are donated, and one is not kept. This house is big and empty, I will move out, and the house will be donated to the country together with other properties that are already rented out, whoever you arrange I don't care if I live here." Zhao Haiyun didn't show any distress on his face.

Comrade Ouyang smiled all over his face: "This house is donated, where do you live?"

"I rented a small house near the machinery factory. I live alone, which is enough!" Zhao Haiyun continued to talk about the arrangement of other items, "Comrade Ouyang, forget everything else. Antiques, calligraphy and paintings, old porcelain furniture and ancient books are more cultured." meaning, I hope it can be donated to the museum, and the rest of the books to the library."

When the second-hand goods are sold, you should cry.

Comrade Ouyang is willing to save face, "These things cannot be sold at will after they are nationalized, they must be sent to the cultural relics department for classification, and those that should be exported should be sent to museums."

The staff immediately added to the list.

Zhao Haiyun formally signed the donation letter, stamped a private seal on the calculated property list, made two copies, and kept one for himself. At the same time, he dismissed the domestic servants, and gave up the fixed interest of the company and the fixed rent of the house that could be received several years later.

Once this matter was published in the newspaper, it caused an uproar.

Li Xingxing bought a newspaper for two cents. The headline was that the national capitalist donated his family property for scientific research. The title was in vertical red traditional characters in large and square fonts.

Between the lines, Zhao Haiyun's patriotism was praised, and the amount of property he donated was also disclosed.

The huge number is surprising and admirable.

On the day the property was handed over to the country, Zhao Haiyun, with the help of the staff, moved into two brick and tile houses near the machinery factory. Although it was not a breeze, he only had some furniture, clothes, pens and paper, food stamps and other things with him. A bicycle, some of the cash that had been in the study, and not a single valuable item.

Even the iconic ruby ​​ring, which he had worn for decades, was donated, and it was counted among the jewelry and jade.

Really and truly from the bourgeoisie to the proletariat.

However, his behavior aroused public outrage.

Everyone is a capitalist, one group, you donated tens of millions of property, highlighting your nobility, highlighting the insignificance of others, what will the higher-ups think of them?How do the people see them?
Do they donate or not?

donate?Most capitalists are reluctant at all. They chose to stay in China or come back from overseas because their lives will not be affected. No one is willing to give up a rich life and choose to live in poverty.

Don't donate?Their situation has become awkward.

Although it is not enough to criticize Zhao Haiyun in public, the estrangement is obvious, and he is not brought to play with him at the dance party.

Li Xingxing listened to what Wen Xiuzhu said.

She recently participated in several capitalist gatherings and dances. Except for a very small number of patriotic capitalists, other big capitalists and their families scolded Zhao Haiyun behind their backs, calling him unrighteous!

Being alone in the limelight puts everyone in a dilemma.
