Chapter 377 Becoming a Landlady 1
Because of this, Chu Tingnan couldn't stay any longer and went home first. Jiang Yanqiu had to handle the rental agreement by herself.
The next day, she went to the Chinese medicine clinic and asked for an afternoon off, and went straight to the new house with Chu Tingnan.
When the people on the street saw them coming, they immediately picked up the stove to let them warm themselves by the fire and made tea for them.
Jiang Yanqiu showed the rental agreement to Director Chu of the street office. When he saw the various exemption policies, he was very happy.
If one of the spouses is unemployed and the rent has not exceeded three months, the first three months for a one-bedroom apartment is only one dollar, and for a two-bedroom apartment it is one dollar and fifty cents.
This rent will be charged until you become ill or disabled and have no income.
If one spouse is admitted to university, the rent will be the same during the period of study. If both spouses are admitted to university, they do not have to pay rent during the period of study.
The rent is really not expensive. It costs one dollar to rent a house of about ten square meters, and it is incomparable to this building.
It is equivalent to the later rent, which is given according to the grade of the house on the street. These are all regulated, and the landlord cannot collect rent at will.
But when Director Chu saw the conditions at the end, he felt a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything in the end.
The educated youth category was limited to male educated youth or single female educated youth. Married female educated youth whose spouse had never been to the countryside could not rent the house. Single female educated youth who married a educated youth also had to move out...
Although Director Chu was dissatisfied, he felt that it was okay. Nowadays, women usually live with men after marriage, unless the man is a live-in son-in-law.
Another thing is that you are not allowed to pile things up in the corridors and public areas.
The corridor of that building was two meters wide, but now the corridors in buildings are less than one and a half meters wide. Every household cooks and piles honeycomb coal in the aisle, but Jiang Yanqiu doesn't want to put anything there.
He then suggested, "I've been to your corridor and it's quite wide. Pushing coal briquettes or something like that is no problem at all."
Jiang Yanqiu explained to him, "There's room for all these things in the house. Putting them in the corridor would make it inconvenient for everyone to walk. The corridor is wide not for storage, but for escape."
If there is an emergency, or a fire or earthquake happens, it will be troublesome if it is delayed because of things piled up in the corridor.
"And leaving things in the hallway is prone to conflict. If one family loses something, then another family loses something, and then one family bumps into another family's things, and then another family bumps into another family's things. They're always arguing over these trivial matters, and there's no peace. It's better not to let anyone leave things in the hallway from the beginning."
A woman nearby also agreed with a smile, "That's right, Director Chu, look at those tube-shaped buildings. They often cause a big fight over trivial matters, just because things are put in the wrong place. It would be better not to let them put things in the first place. There's room in Fangzheng House. The educated youth are all young, so there won't be a shortage of room if they move there."
Director Chu thought about it and realized that quarrels always start with trivial matters and then lead to deep hatred.
After reading it and having no objections, Director Chu wrote a letter of introduction and asked Jiang Yanqiu and others to take it to the printing factory for printing, but he thought that handwriting would be troublesome.
When they came back after copying, there were already more than a dozen people waiting, including one in a wheelchair.
The group of people were either listless or angry, and they all seemed to have no energy.
Maybe they waited too long, or maybe there were too many people, one of them even started arguing with someone on the street.
One of the tall men yelled at the top of his lungs, "Are you guys from the street trying to make fun of us? You called so many of us here in the cold weather to find housing, only to leave us waiting here. Do you have enough houses to rent to so many people?"
Director Chu yelled at him, "Deng Xingrong, stop stirring up trouble here. Do we look like we have nothing to do? If we say we have housing for you, we'll definitely find it. If you start causing trouble here, don't blame me for not giving you my own."
Director Chu never told anyone that there was a house for rent, and he always gave priority to those who needed it most.
Otherwise everyone will know and come to cause trouble for them. Now it’s not just the educated youth’s families who don’t have enough houses to live in. Some families don’t care what your situation is. As long as they have a house, they will come to the street to cause trouble.
The house was not something they could decide, so they had been keeping it a secret. Now they were secretly inviting the educated youth who had housing difficulties to arrange houses for them.
There are only 36 houses, which are not enough for the street to distribute on its own. They have to arrange for other units, otherwise it will be inconvenient to find someone to do things in the future.
Deng Xingrong could tell at a glance that he was the leader of this group, but after hearing Director Chu's confidence, he didn't dare to say anything more. It would be more trouble than good to offend the street leaders.
Director Chu saw Jiang Yanqiu and the others approaching and quickly came over to greet them. "These are the people who live in our neighborhood. There are eighteen households in total. The Housing and Construction Bureau and the brick factory arranged for eight households to come here, and the neighboring street arranged for ten households to come here. Almost all of them have moved to their houses now."
Jiang Yanqiu ran forward and said, "Director Chu, just take care of the arrangements. Do you want someone to help manage this? We can find two more residents to help out. We're too busy at work to come over and manage this. We have to strictly manage this place. Don't let us rent this house to educated youth and end up not knowing who's actually living there."
Director Chu listened and waved his hand: "Just find a few representatives from the educated youth to manage it, and we can just help and assist in the management."
Jiang Yanqiu was not polite and said straightforwardly: "Okay, then I'll trouble you guys!"
A group of people came to the new house, and people from another street were already waiting there.
Although there are only ten houses available on their street, the number of people they brought is more than ten, and it looks like there are at least twenty or so!
Director Chu's face darkened instantly. He walked forward and asked unhappily, "Have all the families from your neighborhood come? How many families are there in total?"
"Currently, sixteen households..."
Director Chu was even more displeased when he heard this. Before the other party could finish speaking, he muttered, "How did your neighborhood arrange it? We agreed on ten households, so why are there so many people here all of a sudden?"
Who would be happy about this? Before, he had thought that the two streets were adjacent to each other, and Jiang Yanqiu's house was at the intersection, so he gave her a place.
It would be fine if the other party brought more people, but the director didn’t even come in person. This is too disrespectful to him!
The other party's group also understood Director Chu's thoughts and quickly explained, "Our director feels embarrassed to see you and will come to apologize in person another day. We originally called everyone over one by one, but someone leaked the news and notified others, so there were more people when we set out."
Director Chu couldn't say anything now, so he could only say helplessly: "Whoever notifies others will give his place to the person who is notified later."
