Get something in the courtyard

The director of the street office used his connections to find Director Wang, and then the call was made to Wang Kun.

Before asking for help, the director of the subdistrict office sent someone to investigate the situation of the courtyard house. The results of the investigation made him feel very fortunate and he did not agree to Yi Zhonghai's request.

He didn't dare to say that he was meeting Wang Kun for this matter, but rather said that he was meeting Wang Kun for the purpose of cooperation.

Wang Kun received the call and couldn't refuse it. For the sake of future cooperation, he agreed to meet. Wang Kun arranged for the person to come to the private kitchen.

The director of the subdistrict office arrived at the restaurant and saw the Shazhu mentioned by Yi Zhonghai.

Sha Zhu was not in a good mood towards the director of the subdistrict office, so he quickly apologized: "Manager He, I was also deceived by Yi Zhonghai, so I rashly called."

He Yuzhu has now been promoted to the manager of the restaurant. However, as a manager, he does not take charge of many things, and his main job is to manage the kitchen. The daily work is handled by a professional manager specially hired by Wang Kun.

Sha Zhu's temper has also improved a lot. After hearing the apology from the director of the street office, his voice became softer.

The current director of the subdistrict office is named Zhang, and Wang Kun quickly asked them to sit down.

During the meeting, Director Zhang talked about investment and offered very good preferential conditions.

Wang Kun smiled and said, "Investment is easy to talk about. I am also willing to invest in the street. So, in two days, I will arrange a team to go to the street, and we will discuss it in detail."

Director Zhang knew that the biggest goal had been achieved this time, and he was very satisfied. Then he talked about Yi Zhonghai's matter.

When Sha Zhu heard this, he immediately said, "Didn't he think Qin Huairu would take care of him in his old age? Why is Qin Huairu unwilling?"

Director Zhang smiled bitterly and said, "They were involved in smuggling, and all their savings were confiscated. Now they live on scavenging. It was I who helped coordinate and let Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui's children take the responsibility of taking care of them."

Sha Zhu said disdainfully: "I think you have been deceived. Based on my understanding of them, those people will definitely not be filial."

Director Zhang didn't say anything, but from his expression, it was clear that Sha Zhu was telling the truth. When he arranged for someone to investigate, he naturally knew about this situation. In his opinion, this was just what he deserved.

"Mr. Wang, I heard that you founded a nursing home?"

Wang Kun knew that Director Zhang would not bring this up for no reason, and it was probably related to a few old men in the hospital.

"I did run a nursing home. Firstly, some employees need to go on business trips and cannot take care of the elderly at home. Secondly, I take care of some elderly people who have no one to rely on."

Director Zhang smiled and said, "There is also a nursing home in our street, which was built during the Military Control Commission."

Wang Kun smiled and said, "I remember. Mr. Lou from our company helped a lot there back then. That nursing home needs to be renovated! So, I will invest some extra money to help the street office renovate the nursing home."

This was a pleasant surprise. Building a nursing home was a good political achievement for him.

Director Zhang thanked him with a smile. He was too embarrassed to argue with Wang Kun, so he said, "Yi Zhonghai made one last request. He wanted to live in the nursing home you run."

Sha Zhu said angrily: "He is dreaming."

Wang Kun glared at him and said, "Director Zhang, don't worry about it. Yi Zhonghai screwed He Yuzhu over badly back then."

Director Zhang knew this but didn't take it to heart.

Wang Kun thought about it and knew that Yi Zhonghai's request would not be so simple. He did not say that he was going to wait for him to agree before proposing conditions.

It is easy to guess that this condition must be related to taking care of Qin Huairu.

He could directly refuse Director Zhang, and Director Zhang would not say anything. However, he thought about it and decided not to refuse.

The older Yi Zhonghai gets, the more stubborn he becomes. Who knows what he will end up doing.

"I opened a nursing home to take care of the helpless elderly. But I won't accept just anyone. Director Zhang, you should have heard that Yi Zhonghai had been selecting the elderly residents in the nursing home for a long time. The one he chose was Qin Huairu."

As for Sha Zhu, there is no need to mention him, everyone knows that he is just a tool to make money.

Director Zhang didn't say anything and waited for Wang Kun to continue.

"I don't know what happened between him and Qin Huairu, and I don't want to bother about it. After all, he is an old man without children, and it does sound pitiful to outsiders."

Director Zhang asked doubtfully, "You agreed."

Wang Kun nodded: "In principle, I agree. However, Yi Zhonghai's situation is different from others."

Director Zhang knew that Wang Kun was going to make a request and listened very carefully.

"Yi Zhonghai has a pension, so he can keep it. His house should be given to the nursing home and rented out to cover the nursing home's expenses. His future hospitalization expenses will also be paid from this."

Director Zhang thought for a moment and said, "This is as it should be. Nursing homes are for those elderly people who are truly in need. Yi Zhonghai has a steel mill to take care of him, so he doesn't meet the requirements. If he wants to move in, this is exactly what we should do."

The meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests.

Afterwards, Wang Kun specially formed a team and participated in the construction of the street, including demolition, construction of commercial buildings, residential buildings and so on.

He had not originally planned to enter the construction industry, but the current construction companies did not meet his requirements, forcing him to set up his own company.

Director Zhang did not delay and went to the courtyard to inform him of the result. He was given two choices: one was to agree to Wang Kun's conditions and enter the nursing home founded by Wang Kun, and the other was to enter the nursing home run by the street office.

Without Wang Kun's investment, the nursing home run by the subdistrict office would not have accepted him because they could not afford it.

This was too different from Yi Zhonghai's expectations, and he was unwilling to agree: "Director, what about Huairu?"

"What happened to Qin Huairu?" Director Zhang asked.

Yi Zhonghai said: "Huai Ru's family has lost their house and has nowhere to live. I have no other request, I hope to let Huai Ru work in a nursing home."

Director Zhang snorted, "Qin Huairu has children, so he doesn't meet the requirements for entering a nursing home. You have to understand that nursing homes are there to help those in need, not for you to seek personal gain."

"But Huairu's children are not around. Banggeng was forced by those gangsters and didn't dare to come back. Her two daughters went to Shanghai and didn't even tell their family where they lived."

Director Zhang asked, "Did those people cause you trouble?"

Yi Zhonghai didn't dare to lie, for fear of revenge from those gangsters.

"Since they didn't cause any trouble to you, how can you say that they forced Bang Geng to be afraid to go home? It's only natural to pay back debts. Isn't it normal for them to ask you for money?"

It is precisely because it is normal that Yi Zhonghai is not satisfied.

If everything goes as normal, who will support him in his old age?

Director Zhang didn't want to waste time on Yi Zhonghai, so he said, "I've told you the conditions. If you agree, go to the street office to register, and the street office will send someone to send you to a nursing home."

If you don't agree, then be quiet and don't make trouble. You are a worker at the steel mill, and the steel mill will take care of you."

After Director Zhang finished explaining all this, he hurried back to the subdistrict office. He also needed to prepare to welcome the team arranged by Wang Kun and see what projects he could cooperate with them on.

The people watching the excitement around them naturally knew the conditions proposed by Wang Kun, but they didn't think they were too much. Yi Zhonghai had entered a nursing home, so it was normal to give the house to the nursing home. (End of this chapter)
