Chapter 400: Raising Funds to Build a House (Part I) (Part 2!)
Wei Xiaofan didn't know what Yin Jun really meant, but he just thought that Xiangjiang was much more prosperous than the mainland, so he invited his girlfriend to play. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
After thinking about it for a while, Li Danmin shook his head regretfully, "Forget it, I'm afraid I won't have time this year...... My third cousin, fifth cousin, and elder brother have all returned from the countryside in Yunnan, Guichuan, and this year's Spring Festival said that our two families should have a good and lively life, and I can't say that I will go to Xiangjiang, right? Besides, you are the protagonist during the Spring Festival this year, and they have to take a good look at you~~"
Wei Xiaofan was happy when he heard it: "Haha, I'm afraid they don't dare, right? Last time, they wanted to get me drunk, but I got drunk instead!"
"You still say! If you drink more than a pound of Moutai like this, you are not afraid that your liver will not be able to stand it! I can greet them with me, and I can't pour good wine when I see it, where is this?" Li Danmin pouted.
She also understood that her cousins and cousins wanted to test Wei Xiaofan's wine, but she didn't expect Wei Xiaofan to come out with a box of 12 bottles of Moutai.
How many ordinary people in this era have drunk Moutai? And it's such an unlimited drink!
As a result, this group of cousins and cousins not only worked hard to pour Wei Xiaofan's wine, but also drank it desperately themselves, and naturally they drank it all over the house.
After laughing, Wei Xiaofan said, "Speaking of which, what did your group have to let me go over today?"
"I don't know. Li Danmin shook her head, and then she raised her hand to look at the time, "It's 4 o'clock, let's hurry over! My mother stewed something delicious tonight, let you go back early!"
"Okay!"
Wei Xiaofan nodded, raised his hand to let the waiter settle the bill, and took Li Danmin out of the café of this foreign-related hotel.
Now there are few places to drink coffee in Lin'an, Li Danmin is a young man after all, and after coming over to drink coffee a few times, he also likes this mood.
After being tired of singing Kunqu Opera, he and Wei Xiaofan came here to sit down and drink a cup of bitter and sweet coffee, which was a good way to relax.
But the price here is not cheap, a cup of coffee can be sold for 6 yuan, and you can't pay in yuan, and a tenth of your salary is gone.
Because of this, Li Danmin asked Wei Xiaofan to bring him here at most once a week, and the rest of the time, he either went to the store to accompany Wei Xiaofan to buy antique calligraphy and paintings, or went to watch a movie, or went to the teahouse to sit down, where the big bowl of tea is cheap, a dime and a pot, you can add water.
The foreign-related hotel is not far from the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe, and it is a 20-minute walk away.
When he entered the regiment commander's office, Li Danmin found that several leaders were there.
The head of the regiment, Zhang Fangqin, the deputy head of the regiment, Tian Chengping, the deputy head of the regiment, Gao Hong, the deputy head of the regiment, and Ge Dexin, the director of the team leader, were whispering something.
Seeing Wei Xiaofan and Li Danmin coming in, they quickly stopped talking, stood up one by one, and greeted Wei Xiaofan with a smile on their faces.
Wei Xiaofan has been to the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe many times, waiting outside the door for the first half a month, and then waiting inside with a dignified and dead face.
However, Wei Xiaofan has not paid a price, he donated more than 100 sets of Kunqu opera costumes to the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe, all of which were specially customized from Xiangjiang, and spent more than 30,000 yuan, which is a bloody investment.
The benefits of this are also obvious, not only is no one blocking him, but someone often reports to him, and the people of the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe often say good things about Wei Xiaofan in front of Li Danmin, and they come to a good assist.
After a period of politeness, Tian Chengping, who was the most eloquent, said with a smile, "Manager Wei, I heard that your good affair with Xiao Dan is approaching?
In a place like Jiangnan, close to the sea, natural thinking is not as confined as in the mainland.
Since last year, when young men and women get married, it has become a relatively common thing for everyone to get together and make trouble.
A provincial-level Kunqu Opera troupe said that it would organize such a wedding, which was really face-saving to the extreme.
Li Danmin was dumbfounded when he heard this, and his face immediately bloomed with a brilliant look.
You must know that before Li Danmin came to the former Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe, she sang in the Jiangnan Xiaobaihuayue Opera Troupe, and she was first-class at that time.
But when he was selected to the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe, he became second-rate, and he was not one of the elites who were valued at all.
It's not that the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe is not good to her, but everyone speaks with their ability, and those actors who have good singing and performance skills will of course receive more attention and get more opportunities to perform.
But now that the leader of the regiment said this, such a grand celebration ceremony had never been held before, how could she not be overjoyed?
Wei Xiaofan is not a vegetarian, and throwing out such a big gift for no reason all of a sudden only proves that they have a big plan.
The more they give, the more they want to receive.
On the surface, he smiled innocently, "Thank you, then I will definitely give you a big red envelope!"
"Brother Xiaofan, the head of the family and my colleagues, they are just giving me a celebration, don't be so cheesy!" Li Danmin said a little coquettishly, she was not unreasonable, but talking about money directly like this made her feel embarrassed.
"Yes, we are all our own people, where do we want any red envelopes?" Zhang Fangqin said with a smile and shook her hand.
Then Ge Dexin, who was in charge of the performance leader, pretended to be casual and said, "Xiao Dan, you are all about to get married, are you going to go back to Huajing, or go back to Xiangjiang directly?"
"It's not so fast!" Li Danmin hurriedly said, "We have to be in another place." ”
"Could it be that you don't plan to marry Manager Wei?" Gao Hong said with a pretended surprise.
Li Danmin's face turned red, and he didn't refute it for a long time.
It was Wei Xiaofan who relieved her, "We haven't made any plans for this yet, probably in the next year or so, I will still run between Lin'an, Huhai and Huajing." ”
"In this case, if you get married, you still have to prepare a home in Lin'an, don't you?" Tian Chengping asked casually, "But I've been to Xiao Dan's house, her house is just a standard two-bedroom apartment, if you live at home in the future and have a child, it must be very inconvenient, right?"
Wei Xiaofan didn't understand what he meant, but he still nodded slightly.
"So, wouldn't it be best if you two could have your own house?" Tian Chengping said with a twinkle in his eyes.
"Oh, the group is ready to repair the house again, I'm not qualified......" Li Danmin blurted out.
In today's Huaguo, there is no private housing for the residents of the city.
Everyone lives in either a dilapidated old house that existed before the liberation, or a house in a unit.
Among them, the most common houses built by the unit.
But you also have to look at which unit it is.
Units with better efficiency, such as government units, cotton mills, iron and steel mills, military factories, supply and marketing cooperatives, and railway departments, can be repaired everywhere, and most workers can live in houses.
If it is a unit with poor efficiency, such as the current Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe, there is only one office building and training place, and then a large canteen and a big courtyard dam are their main assets.
As for the housing or something, there are more than a dozen tube buildings next to it, each with three floors, and the first floor is divided into ten houses, one bedroom and one living room, the toilet is shared, and the kitchen is in the corridor.
It looks like there are more than 300 houses, which should be good, right?
But this tube building was built in the 50s, from the 50s to the present, more than 300 people have retired from the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe, and now there are more than 200 people in service, with a total of more than 600 people.
Is it possible to have a house of about 300 households?
At least 200 or more employees either live in their parents' homes or are crowded into a single apartment for almost eight people in a single apartment that the Kunqu Opera Troupe has approved for the government.
In the past, these employees and actors were young, so it was nothing, they were all single, and it was enough to squeeze into a place to live.
But they are gradually getting older, twenty-four or five years old, twenty-seven or eighteen years old, and it is time to talk about marriage, how can they still be crowded into a bachelor apartment with others?
They naturally hope that the unit can build a house again, even if it is a tube building, even if it is still a one-bedroom apartment, so that the small two can move in.
Otherwise, no one would dare to get married!
When you get married and live in a single dormitory in your unit, does that look like you're married?
In this era, private individuals are not allowed to repair houses.
Only if your house is rotten and unlikely, then the government will agree to let you rebuild it, and you can't go too far beyond the standard.
But there are too few people who own the old houses before the liberation, and basically these houses are quite thick and not a big problem.
And those who work in the unit can count on the unit, and the unit can have the power to repair the house.
After the house is repaired, the biggest way for people to get a house is to allocate the house according to the unit's qualifications, contributions, and other criteria.
I don't know how many entanglements and struggles there are around this house, and I can't finish a book.
But it is already a very lucky thing to have a house to divide and fight for.
For example, the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe, because the unit has no funds, and there is no performance income on weekdays, the funds are all government grants, and it is more difficult to use them in all aspects, where is there any spare money to repair the house?
They are not like the Huhai Fine Arts Film Studio, they are the face of the country, and the funds are generally sufficient - well, in other words, the Huhai Fine Arts Film Studio has no way to repair the house, because most of their funds are used for work, but the money for repairing the house is still insufficient.
Therefore, since the Jiangnan Kunqu Opera Troupe built a house in the 50s, it has never repaired the house, which makes the employees and actors complain, because the leaders of the troupe are noisy about the house.
Even in the past five or six years, there are more than 20 outstanding actors, just because they got married and didn't have a house, they resigned directly and went to another better place, either in a factory, or looking for a relationship to go to a better unit, anyway, as long as they have a house.
These are all very good actors!
It's really embarrassing to leave the Kunqu Opera Troupe like this.
But you can't get the house to keep them, so there's no way to do it.
Originally, a group of actors were discussing in their spare time whether they would have the opportunity to repair the house in the next two years, but now Li Danmin suddenly heard that there seemed to be such a tone, and he suddenly became excited.
Although she may not be able to get a house, it is good to have such a little expectation!
Maybe in two years it will be your turn?
Hearing Li Danmin's words, Zhang Fangqin smiled bitterly, "Xiao Dan, if we can have this ability, where will Xiao Tan, Xiao Bai, and Xiao Zhu leave?"
Since it's not about to repair the house, what does that mean?
Li Danmin was puzzled.
"But you're not bad at it, we're going to use another method now. Tian Chengping coughed lightly, and turned to Wei Xiaofan, "Manager Wei, have you heard of the matter of intellectuals returning to their hometowns?"
"I've heard of it. Wei Xiaofan nodded.
He saw the news in Baodao, and after returning to Huajing, he also heard his parents, relatives and friends talk about it.
The so-called educated youth are young intellectuals.
The process of young intellectuals going to the rural areas, working where they are needed, and going deep into the front line to temper themselves is called "going to the mountains and going to the countryside."
This going to the mountains and going to the countryside is not just going to the countryside and the ravines, in fact, this definition is too narrow.
To give a simple example, the development of the Great Northern Wilderness was taken by the intellectuals; the various constructions and development of Xinjiang were also carried out by the majority of the intellectuals, and even many of the intellectuals in Xinjiang did not return to their hometowns in the end, but took root in the local area.
Of course, there are many people who go to difficult places, and the existence of various problems makes it impossible for young people in the city to bear it, resulting in many situations.
Therefore, in 79 years, that is, at the beginning of this year, the central center held a special meeting, and finally made a decision to "agree to return to the hometown of educated youths in batches".
At this moment, more than 10 million young intellectuals flocked to their hometowns and cities, and this action is called "intellectuals returning to their hometowns."
As a major exporter of educated youth, at least 35 million educated youths have returned to the cities in Huajing, Huhai, Jiangnan, Jiangdong, and other places, and this has injected a lot of vitality and hustle and bustle into the originally quiet city.
Wei Xiaofan has several relatives and friends who "go to the mountains and go to the countryside", because he does not belong to the urban hukou and is a real farmer, so he is not included in the object of going to the mountains and going to the countryside.
When he took Li Danmin back to Huajing last month to meet his parents and siblings, he met two cousins and cousins who had returned, as well as a distant cousin.
The changes in them were so great that Wei Xiaofan couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
