Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

He stared at Qin Huairu and asked seriously: "Huairu..."

"If that's the case, then we'll have to wait a while before we can get the house for Banggeng..."

After hearing this, Qin Huairu suddenly reacted.

Yi Zhonghai asked me for help in his old age, and at the same time, I also asked Yi Zhonghai for something.

Both parties benefit mutually. If their relationship becomes strained because of this incident, you will be the one who suffers in the end.

The most direct impact is that Banggeng cannot own his own house.

Bang Geng is already in his teens and should have been sleeping in a separate room.

But because the Jia family had no extra defenses, Banggeng had to squeeze together with the women.

This is definitely not conducive to the growth of the stick stem.

Qin Huairu finally had the opportunity to let Banggeng have a house of his own, and she was determined not to let it go.

Otherwise, given Qin Huairu's current conditions, there would be no way he could ever get Banggeng a house of his own.

More importantly, if the situation gets worse, he won't be able to get even a penny from Yi Zhonghai.

Although his position in Yi Zhonghai's retirement plan is crucial and he is the only beneficiary at present, it does not rule out the possibility that Yi Zhonghai will take other measures to provide for his retirement.

For example, he would go to an orphanage and adopt an orphan, raise him before he retires, and send him to a steel mill to teach him locksmith skills, and let the adopted orphan take care of him in his old age.

Thinking of this, and seeing the determined expression on Yi Zhonghai's face, Qin Huairu suddenly felt unsure.

Facing Yi Zhonghai's threatening gaze, he tentatively asked, "Godfather..."

"Ten yuan a month for living expenses is really too little..."

"If the food is really bad, I'm worried that it will affect the health of the two elders."

"How about we both take a step back and raise the living expenses to fifteen dollars a month..."

"This way, your living standards won't drop too much."

Qin Huairu said the last two sentences with gritted teeth, feeling as heartbroken as if her flesh was being cut.

In Qin Huairu's original plan, Yi Zhonghai would give him 20 yuan a month for living expenses, and he would definitely embezzle 5 yuan without anyone noticing.

If the living expenses that Yi Zhonghai gave him were reduced to 15 yuan per month, he would not be able to put the living expenses into his own pocket without affecting the living standards of Yi Zhonghai and his wife.

Even if there is, it's only one or two dollars.

So in Qin Huairu's view, every dollar of living expenses that Yi Zhonghai cut was like cutting her flesh, and it was hard not to feel pain.

Yi Zhonghai also didn't want to have a complete falling out with Qin Huairu. After all, she was the only person in the Siheyuan who could provide for him in his old age.

Look at Qin Huairu taking a step back.

Although the living expenses deducted every month are only five dollars, it adds up to sixty dollars a year, and four to five hundred dollars in eight years. With various interests, it is enough to meet one's retirement needs for at least two years.

If by that time the money for retirement is still not enough, the worst that can happen is that I sell my house for the money.

Although he has promised to leave the house to Banggeng in the future, the two parties have not signed any agreement.

And leaving the house to Bang Geng was not unconditional.

Only if Qin Huairu takes good care of herself in her old age will she leave the house to Banggeng after the couple pays New Year's greetings.

If I spend all my retirement money in the future and Qin Huairu no longer supports me for the sake of profit, I can break the contract at any time and sell the house to someone else who is willing to support me in my old age.

Anyway, the pension agreement between him and Qin Huairu was just a transaction, and there was not much affection between the two parties.

If you are unkind to me, then don't blame me for being unjust. Thinking of this, Yi Zhonghai made a decision on the spot: "Then it's fifteen dollars..."

"Starting from next month, I will give you fifteen dollars a month for living expenses."

"Although the living expenses have been reduced by five yuan, for the two of us, the average living expenses per person are still seven yuan and fifty cents."

"Even if we don't eat meat every meal, we must eat meat every five days...our daily living standards can't be reduced too much...there shouldn't be any problem with this, right?"

Qin Huairu nodded quickly: "Don't worry, godfather..."

"The living expenses have only been reduced by five yuan. Apart from eating less meat, the other food standards must not be reduced."

In order to avoid being completely abandoned by Yi Zhonghai, the fat sheep, Qin Huairu had to choose to compromise.

The east wing of the front yard.

When Wang Dong got home, he told Chen Jun and Chen Dehui the good news.

"Wife, father-in-law...I have already secured a job for my younger sister at the steel mill."

"I originally wanted her to work as a broadcaster in the steel mill, which would be easy and stress-free, but Director Li rejected the idea."

"After Director Li became the head of the steel mill, he wanted to reward him for his merits and promote him to deputy director of logistics, but I refused."

"I am only in my twenties. If I really become the deputy director of logistics and the youngest deputy director-level cadre in the steel mill, I will definitely become the target of public criticism in the future."

"The first bird to stick its head out gets shot. Going up now will only do harm and no good to me."

"To compensate me, Director Li decided to give me a regular worker quota, an apprentice quota, and also raised Junzi's salary level by one level."

"The quota for regular employees will definitely be given to my younger sister."

"After I proposed that my younger sister should work as a broadcaster in the publicity department, Director Li told me that being a broadcaster had no future, that the salary was fixed, and that it would be difficult to get promoted. He asked me to arrange for my younger sister to work as a clerk in the personnel department or the finance department. If she moved quickly, she could be promoted to a higher level in two years."

"If I'm lucky, I can even become a cadre in five or six years. After all, I'm only a high school student."

"With work experience, it's more than enough for me to be a deputy section chief."

"I don't know whether you want to go to the Personnel Department or the Finance Department. If you choose, I will go to the steel mill tomorrow to decide."

"The trend of going to the countryside is getting stronger and stronger. Important positions like personnel officers in steel mills are very limited, especially regular workers. There are too many people and too few jobs."

"The sooner we can make it certain, the sooner we can feel at ease."

"To avoid long nights and too many dreams."

For a moment, everyone in the room focused their eyes on Chen Li, waiting for her to make the final decision.

Chen Li shook her head and answered with embarrassment: "Brother-in-law..."

"I don't know what the personnel department and the finance department do, so I don't know how to choose."

Wang Dong thought for a moment and replied: "The personnel department staff must be good at speaking and handle the relationship between themselves and their colleagues and leaders well."

"A finance officer must be able to do accounting and be good at math, but doesn't need to be eloquent."

Chen Li's eyes lit up after hearing this, and she made up her mind: "I don't like dealing with people. I have the best math grades in school. I want to study finance."

Wang Dong immediately responded: "I also support you to go to the Finance Department."

"The two most important things in a factory are technology and property."

"Your sister is in technology, and you are in finance. This will only benefit you in the future." (End of this chapter)
