Siheyuan: Starting to work in the security department

Niu Ping'an waited for more than ten minutes before Liu Xiangnan came back on a bicycle.

"Comrade Niu, shall we walk?"

"Row!"

Niu Ping'an finished the tea in the cup, stood up and walked towards Liu Xiangnan.

"It takes half an hour to walk from here. It's faster to ride a bike."

Liu Xiangnan patted the back seat of the bicycle, motioning Niu Ping'an to sit on it.

"I just happened to come here by bicycle. Comrade Liu, please wait a moment."

Niu Ping'an waved his hand to refuse, took out his bicycle parking ticket and walked towards the parking lot.

After getting the car, Liu Xiangnan led the way in front, and Niu Pingan followed slowly.

After riding for more than ten minutes, we finally arrived at the courtyard that Liu Xiangnan mentioned.

The courtyard is close to Ding'an Gate and is almost outside the Second Ring Road.

This is a simple slum, not very large in area, and the buildings are old.

There are a few sheds scattered around the yard.

There is also a pomegranate tree in the yard.

“Comrade Niu, this is the yard.

There are seven rooms in total, large and small.

The whole yard is less than 400 square meters.”

Liu Xiangnan brought Niu Ping'an into the courtyard and introduced them to the residents who were staring at him eagerly.

"Looks okay!"

Niu Ping'an nodded with satisfaction.

Although the yard is messy, it can be a good place to live after being demolished and rebuilt.

“It’s quite nice, but a little shabby, and needs to be repaired before it can be lived in.

The original owner was in a hurry to sell it, and the price he offered was reasonable, twelve hundred."

Liu Xiangnan echoed from the side.

“How long will it take to get the room?”

Niu Ping'an looked around and saw that there were quite a few people living in this yard.

"Within a week!"

Liu Xiangnan did not make any big claims, but he said the cycle was quite long.

After all, some tenants may be troublemakers, and it may take some tricks to take back the house.

You also need to set aside some time for people to find a house and move.

There is no need to push people into desperate situations.

"Okay, how much is the fee?"

Niu Ping'an doesn't care about a week's time.

“Three become two!

The buyer gets 3 percent of the price and the seller gets 2 percent.”

“How much will it cost to handle the rest?”

Niu Ping'an calculated in his mind.

The house price is 1,200 yuan, and 3% is only 36 yuan for labor fee.

This fee is not high.

"Fifty!"

Liu Xiangnan offered a high price of fifty yuan, but was worried that Niu Ping'an would not agree, so he added:

"We guarantee you will have no worries."

"Okay, we'll trade once you clear the yard!"

The price of kicking people out was higher than the agency fee, which surprised Niu Ping'an a little.

However, Niu Ping'an did not bargain.

After all, there are risks in taking possession of a house, so it is normal for the price to be slightly higher.

As for how much benefit Liu Xiangnan could get from it, Niu Ping'an didn't care.

How to resettle the residents in the courtyard is their own business.

Originally this yard was a private property and rent had to be paid.

It doesn’t matter where you rent a house!

"Comrade Niu, I need to collect some of the fees first."

A look of joy appeared on Liu Xiangnan's face.

The referral fee for this business is sixty, which is equivalent to two months' salary for an ordinary worker.

"it is good.

The 3% handling fee and hiring someone to do the job totaled eighty-six dollars.

I'll give you fifty first, and I'll pay the rest after the transfer."

Niu Ping'an also knew that Liu Xiangnan would have to pay money to find someone to do something for him.

You can't let others do things at their own expense.

As for the worry that Liu Xiangnan would take the money and not do the job?

That's impossible. What Laxianer does is reputation.

If his reputation is ruined, no business will come to him.

He lost his job for just fifty dollars.

Niu Ping'an didn't think that a veteran like Liu Xiangnan would do something that would be detrimental to himself.

"Comrade Niu is so cool!"

Niu Ping'an was generous in his work, and Liu Xiangnan couldn't help but praise him.

"When the time comes, just come find me at the steel mill.

I work in the security department of the steel mill."

Niu Ping'an took out money from his pocket, counted out fifty yuan and handed it to Liu Xiangnan.

By the way, tell him your work address for easy contact.

"Okay, then let's make an agreement."

Liu Xiangnan took the money and spoke impatiently.

It was obvious that Liu Xiangnan was also anxious to resolve the matter and get the introduction fee as soon as possible.

"Um.."

Niu Ping'an nodded, and the two of them separated at the gate of the courtyard and went their separate ways.

......

Liu Xiangnan is still very efficient in his work.

Only three days later, he came to the steel mill to look for Niu Ping'an.

When Niu Ping'an got the news, he took half a day off.

The two of them came to the courtyard together, and the owner of the house was already waiting at the gate.

"Comrade Niu, let me introduce you. This is the owner of the house. You can just call him Lao Zhao.

Lao Zhao, this is Comrade Niu Pingan who bought your house. "

As soon as the two sides met, Liu Xiangnan introduced them to each other.

Old Zhao is a middle-aged man in his fifties.

He had a dark skin, was smoking a pipe, and was dressed like a farmer.

"Hello, Comrade Lao Zhao!"

Niu Ping'an stretched out his hand and shook hands with Lao Zhao.

"Hello, Comrade Niu Ping'an!"

"The yard has been cleared. Shall we go in and take a look first?"

After both parties had greeted each other, Liu Xiangnan suggested.

"it is good!"

Niu Pingan nodded.

The three of them walked into the yard side by side.

The courtyard was empty at this time and the greenhouse had been completely dismantled.

It is obvious that the tenants are all frugal people.

Without the cluttered greenhouse blocking the view, the yard looks much tidier.

Looking at the courtyard that had been restored to its original state, Old Zhao said with emotion:

"Oh, I didn't expect that it's been 40 or 50 years in the blink of an eye!"

"Where is Lao Zhao now?"

Niu Ping'an looked at Old Zhao, who had a nostalgic look on his face, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"In the mid-1950s, my whole family was sent to Shaanxi.

I was still a young boy back then!"

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, many people were sent down to the countryside due to various movements.

Cases like the Zhao family's are not uncommon.

The situation of the old Zhao family was relatively good, at least they waited until the day of redress;

Some families simply disappeared after being sent down to the countryside.

"Are you not planning to go back to Sijiu City?"

“Not coming back!

I’ve gotten used to it after living there for so many years!”

Old Zhao looked dejected.

After all, he is at the last stage of his life.

My descendants have already settled down there, so there’s no point in coming back.

Niu Ping'an nodded, not knowing how to comfort him.

After Lao Zhao calmed down, Liu Xiangnan said:

"Old Zhao, Comrade Niu, shall we go transfer the ownership now?"

"it is good!"

Neither Niu Ping'an nor Lao Zhao refused.

The three of them walked out of the yard, Liu Xiangnan locked the gate and gave the key directly to Niu Ping'an.

"Comrade Niu, I'll give you the key directly. After the transfer of ownership, the yard will be yours!"

Niu Ping'an put the key directly into his pocket.

Liu Xiangnan drove Lao Zhao, and Niu Pingan followed. The three of them went directly to the Housing Authority to complete the transfer procedures.

After getting the property certificate, Niu Ping'an did not hesitate and paid the full amount to the two of them.

Old Zhao also gave Liu Xiangnan twenty-four yuan as an introduction fee.

"You two, the work is done. I will take my leave now!"

Seeing that the matter was settled, Niu Ping'an prepared to say goodbye and leave.

"Comrade Niu, let's go have a meal together!"

Old Zhao stopped Niu Ping'an who was about to leave and invited him.

"no need!"

Niu Ping'an rejected Lao Zhao's kindness without thinking.

After all, the two of them were just a deal, and if nothing unexpected happens, they won't even have the chance to meet again in the future.

Niu Ping'an also planned to go to the construction team to see how to deal with the yard while there was still time!

"Comrade Niu, this is the rule of our boating.

After the transaction is completed, the seller will invite both parties to sit down for a banquet.”

Seeing that Niu Ping'an didn't understand the ins and outs of it, Liu Xiangnan kindly introduced it to him.

"Okay then!

It cost Lao Zhao a lot of money!"

Things have come to this point, and Niu Ping'an is not someone who doesn't know what's good for him.

It would be unreasonable to refuse again.

"It should, it should!"

The three of them found a restaurant and had a good meal with Lao Zhao as the host.

Chicken, fish, meat...

We ordered eight dishes in total!
