Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 948 Old House

"I know that there are many people in every department who need housing, but there are only so many houses, so we must be cautious and make sure to place them in the hands of those who need them most."

"Leader, can you talk to Panshi Group and ask them to give up some more houses? As far as I know, they don't have so many people in their branch!" The person who raised the question was the leader of the Personnel Bureau.

Because the large aircraft factory is about to merge with McDonnell Douglas, all the files of everyone have been transferred to the Personnel Bureau. According to what he knows, there are only about 300 people in the newly established large aircraft research institute.

"Leader, if all else fails, let's talk to Panshi Group and grant them some land so they can build houses." Old Li from the Construction Bureau spoke up.

The current Magic City is not the Magic City of the past. Its current area is barely one-third of the size of the Magic City in the future. There is still a lot of land around the Magic City. Not to mention other areas, just the area near this community can be almost drawn out as acres of land. If this amount of land is used to build houses, it is estimated that a lot can be built.

In his opinion, the greening of the community is completely unnecessary. It would be better to use all the greening to build houses. This would increase the number of houses. If the land is given to them, it can almost accommodate twice as many houses. If there are more houses, many problems can be solved.

After hearing what these two people said, the people below also began to talk.

The higher-ups had considered the issues they raised, but since this was a community built by the locals, it was already the most they could do by giving away a portion of the money to support the government. If they added more, it would not look good, so they did not bring up the matter again.

"Two leaders, if it doesn't work, I will talk to Comrade Xu Damao to see if we can build some more houses. You are all familiar with Comrade Jiang Yan, the president of Panshi Group. He is a patriotic entrepreneur named above. I believe if we tell him about our difficulties, he may agree." said Guo Peng, Minister of Commerce.

He said this with some confidence. After such a long period of contact, he found that both Jiang Yan from Panshi Group and Xu Damao who came this time seemed to be very optimistic about Modou. Moreover, since he knew that Jiang Yan used to be a person in a state-owned enterprise, he had a natural liking for him.

"Okay, comrades, stop discussing this. Let Xiao Guo from the Ministry of Commerce talk to Comrade Xu Damao and see what the situation is. What we need to solve now is the problem of how to purchase these 500 houses. This is the top priority."

Commercial housing is now available in Shanghai, and people in units that don’t have as much money as I do are buying it, so they know something about the prices.

The current price of commercial housing in the entire Magic City is about one thousand yuan, which means that even the smallest house in this community will cost at least more than 80,000 yuan.

Although wages have been adjusted and people earn more every month, not many people can afford to take out so much money at once.

So, at this time, everyone who came to the meeting fell silent.

After a few minutes, a leader said, "Dear leaders and comrades, my suggestion is that we should take out some money from the treasury, and those who need houses in various units should pay some more."

"Even so, how much money can an individual come up with?"

"That's right. You can't take it out all at once."

As soon as the leader finished speaking, others began to talk.

"All leaders are aware of this year's fiscal budget. We don't have this amount of money in our budget now. We can say that we can't spend a single penny on this." Lao Qian, who is in charge of finance, spoke directly without caring about anything else.

Lao Qian knew that what he said would offend a large number of people, but the fact was that if you have no money you have no money, and no matter what anyone says, it won’t help.

The other leaders were also very clear about Lao Qian's temper. This general manager was a figure like Grandet. None of the funds applied for by their department were approved smoothly. Even if they were approved, it was only half of what they applied for. They couldn't argue with him, and they didn't dare to offend him.

"What Lao Hu said just now is right. I'm not asking you to pay for it all. Lao Qian, how about the finance department squeeze out some money? Think of a way."

"No money." Old Qian put on a dead look and spat out two words.

Hearing these two words, the leader who had just raised the issue almost collapsed. No matter what the superiors and leaders of other departments said, the old Qian in charge of finance was just two words: no money. Then he acted like he didn't care, which made everyone speechless.

"Look at this year's plan, road construction, maintenance, and employee salaries. Tell me which one you think can be moved."

Hearing the accusations from others, the good-tempered Lao Qian couldn't help but start to criticize. Suddenly, everyone was silent. The ball was kicked back to the leader's feet.

"I have also told Comrade Xu Damao about our difficulties before. After he reported it to Comrade Jiang Yan, Comrade Jiang Yan also considered our problems and agreed that we could exchange some real estate such as the old house."

When the leaders of the Industry and Commerce Bureau said this, their eyes lit up. Then they started to whisper to each other again.

"And this is a good thing."

"That's right, is this guy crazy? He wants to exchange these houses for money."

"This is great. The annual maintenance costs of these houses in our bureau are quite a headache. It's a good thing to have them take over."

……,
"Quiet, quiet, comrades, be quiet, pay attention to the discipline of the meeting." Seeing the chaos below, the leader sitting at the top couldn't help but knock on the table to remind them.

"I wonder if anyone has any objection to exchanging some old houses and real estate for something else." The high-ranking official from Shanghai who was sitting on the upper floor spoke up.

After waiting for a while, he saw that no one below spoke, so he spoke again.

"In this case, let's vote by raising our hands. Those who agree please raise your hands."

As soon as the leader finished speaking, everyone in the meeting raised their hands.

Seeing that almost everyone raised their hands, he knew without counting that more than half of the votes had been cast, so the leader spoke directly, "Since more than a unanimous vote has been passed, please give your opinions on how to change the vote."

"It's like this, leader, I would like to ask Comrade Guo Peng how they will make the replacement, is it a one-to-one replacement or something else." A leader spoke up.

"According to my communication with Comrade Xu Damao, the exchange rate for old villas with certain commemorative significance is one to one. The exchange rate for apartment-type is one to one and a half."

"The old house is a villa, but it still has a yard. How should we exchange it? Should we just give it away as a gift?"

“The exchange will still be carried out at a one-to-one ratio.”

Then the people below raised all kinds of questions. Guo Peng from China Merchants Group answered the ones he knew, and wrote down the ones he didn't know and would consult them the next time he met Xu Damao.

They were overjoyed but they didn't know the future value of this old house. Now they felt that Xu Damao and his men were nothing but fools.

Many departments with old houses started to fight. Xiaojiujiu was thinking about whether he could contact Xu Damao privately and exchange some privately. After all, even if the house was divided, only a few sets could be divided, which could not solve the problem of the department's lack of houses.
