Chapter 273 The vicious reputation spreads far and wide
"You're working too? And I've even given you a room. Wait, this is the west wing of Courtyard No. 5."
Director Xu didn't know what to say at this time. Is this sure not fake?
But after reading the documents, it was absolutely true! Everything including the official seal was correct.
"Yes, I got a job as a non-staff purchasing agent in the woolen mill." Li Jiayi scratched his head and said.
"You're still an extra-staff purchasing agent! That's because you're not old enough, otherwise I don't know how Old Qiao would have won you over. But these are also serious!" Director Xu shook his head.
A purchasing agent at administrative level 30 was actually assigned to a cross-campus unit. How can this be justified?
"Hehehe, thank you Director Qiao for thinking highly of me."
"Okay, don't say these things to me. I won't listen anyway."
"Okay." Li Jiayi spread his hands helplessly.
After completing Li Jiayi's formalities, Director Xu stood up and said, "Let's go. I'll take you to see the house."
"Okay, Director Xu."
When you go to see a house, of course you go inside first! That is Courtyard No. 15.
This is also a three-in-one courtyard, but it is smaller in size and the main house has only five rooms.
"Director Xu, why are you here?" As soon as I entered the hospital, a middle-aged man hurriedly came up to me and asked.
"Hey, you didn't go to work today?" Director Xu asked the middle-aged man.
"I went to the hospital today to see a doctor and took a day off." said the middle-aged man.
"I brought some people to see the house. They are employees of the woolen mill and are now assigned to this courtyard." Director Xu pointed at Li Chengqian and Sun Qingmin and said.
"So that's how it is! Is it the front yard or the middle yard? I'll lead the way."
"He is the front yard, and this is the middle yard." Director Xu first pointed at Sun Qingmin, and then at Li Chengqian.
"Ah! They are divided into two places!" The middle-aged man thought that they came here together and were a family, but he didn't expect that they were not.
"Yes, let's take a look at the house in the front yard first! By the way, this is the second uncle in the yard, he works in the machine repair shop."
"Hello, Second Uncle." Sun Qingmin called out quickly.
Li Chengqian didn't know what was going on, but Sun Qingmin knew! There were uncles in every courtyard in the imperial capital.
The reason why there are no old men in Courtyard No. 7 now is because they were all driven out by Li Jiayi, but there are still old men in other courtyards.
Although he didn't know what was going on, seeing that Sun Qingmin had already called out, Li Chengqian also hurriedly called out, "Hello, Second Uncle."
"Good good."
This courtyard with three entrances and one courtyard is relatively small, with the main house having only five rooms and the wing rooms also having only two rooms.
The first room we looked at was the two eastern wing rooms in the front yard, which were also allocated to Sun Qingmin.
Director Xu took out the key and opened the door. The room was very simple, with only some basic furniture, and all of them were very old.
But this is already very good for Sun Qingmin.
Maybe because no one has lived here for a long time, there is a lot of dust in the house and it probably needs a thorough cleaning.
After looking at the house, Director Xu said to Sun Qingmin, "You don't have to follow me, just clean up the house!"
"Okay Director Xu, I'll go back and ask my sister and brother to come over and help."
"Ok!"
"Brother Cheng Qian, when you've finished looking at the house, give me the key and I'll help you clean up the house."
"No, no, I can clean it up myself later, you don't have to worry about it."
"It's okay. It's not tiring to clean up the house."
"Really, there's no need." Li Chengqian couldn't do such a thing as asking a girl to help him clean the house.
Soon they finished looking around the west wing of the central courtyard. The room was the same as Sun Qingmin's house, with only a few very shabby pieces of furniture and nothing else.
"Brother, you stay and clean up the house! As for the furniture, see if Sun Qingmin wants it. If not, throw it away. I'll take you to the Trust Store to buy some furniture later."
"No need for Jiayi. These furniture are good. There is no need to change them." Li Chengqian shook his head quickly.
"Are you sure you don't want to change it? If you don't change it now, you will have to pay for it later."
Li Chengqian quickly shook his head and said, "If you don't change it, it can still be used. Why should you change it?"
Li Jiayi doesn't really like these furniture, but they are still very good to others.
"Fine!"
Leaving his eldest cousin here to clean up the house, Li Jiayi followed Director Xu to Yard No. 5.
Courtyard No. 5 and Courtyard No. 7 are the same houses, but one is located in the east and the other in the west.
Even the people living in the courtyard were almost the same. There were people from the Second Steel Rolling Mill, the Woolen Textile Mill, and of course, there were people from other factories, but they were very few.
Most people in this courtyard went to work, so Li Jiayi did not meet the three uncles in Courtyard No. 5.
I guess even if they met him, the three uncles in this courtyard would not dare to provoke him.
How many people in the area don't know Li Jiayi's name? Especially since Courtyard No. 5 is so close.
The three uncles didn’t see it, but the three aunts did, and it was the aunt who personally brought them to the west wing.
There is no one living in the west wing, so the moon gate does not have a main door. It is estimated that even if there were people living there, it would not be possible to install a main door.
Only Li Jiayi didn't care what people in the courtyard thought and installed a big door on top of the moon gate.
I went in to take a look and saw that the houses were in a dilapidated state, probably because no one lived there. Some of them even had holes in their roofs.
Not to mention doors and windows.
It seems that if it is not renovated, it will be impossible to live here.
"Plus one! This house has not been lived in for a long time and has fallen into disrepair. It seems you need to repair it before you can live in it."
"It's okay. I'll go to the street office and ask the construction team to come and fix it. But I'll need your help to get a certificate." "Don't worry. I'll get you a certificate and arrange for the construction team to come and find you."
"Well! In that case, I won't go to the street office. I can just ask the construction team to bring the certificate to me."
"can."
"By the way, Director Xu, it's still the same as before. You can open it according to the previous certificate. Also, tell the construction team that I won't be responsible for the meal, but I will provide the ingredients."
"Hahaha, no problem."
Li Jiayi provides the food. If the people on the construction team knew about this, they would definitely rush over!
After looking at the house, Li Jiayi went to Courtyard No. 15. It would definitely take a long time for his eldest cousin to clean the house alone.
As for Director Xu, of course he went back to the street office.
When Li Jiayi arrived at Yard No. 15, Sun Qingmin was already cleaning the house with Sun Qingmei and Sun Qingjun.
"Brother Jiayi." Seeing Li Jiayi, Sun Qingjun ran over excitedly.
This boy is only ten years old this year, but he is very sensible and is definitely good at helping with housework.
Now that school is not in session, he is at home helping Aunt Sun make matchboxes.
"Go to work hard, and come back to play with me later."
"Ok!"
After saying hello to the two sisters Sun Qingmin, Li Jiayi came to the central courtyard.
At this time, Li Chengqian had already wiped all the furniture in the room and was sweeping away the cobwebs.
"Brother, why didn't you ask my sisters to help?" As soon as I saw the cleaning tools that my cousin was holding, I knew he had returned to Yard No. 7.
"Why would they do such a small job? I can finish it quickly by myself."
Li Jiayi shook his head and said, "Let me help you!"
"No, I can do it myself, just go and do your own thing!"
"Nothing happened today."
Originally, Li Jiayi planned to help his eldest cousin and his family get their jobs and houses ready and then go sell juice.
Unexpectedly, he also got a share of the house. In this case, he decided not to leave and would have to go back to contact the construction team of the street office.
With Li Jiayi's help, the cleaning was finished quickly. There were no big items in the room, so it was easy to clean.
"Brother, we just finished cleaning and need to let it air out for a few days. You can stay at home for the next few days. Come over after the bedding and everything are ready."
"Ok!"
If you are allocated a house, you must live in it, otherwise people will gossip about you and even say that you have a place to live but are competing with others for the house.
Of course, even if you live there, you’re just living there, and you still eat in Courtyard No. 7.
It’s not a good idea to let him make a fire by himself. When he gets married, he will have to make a fire and cook by himself.
But it’s still early.
After cleaning, the two returned to Yard No. 7. They didn't have to go to work today, so they would wait until they had settled down before going.
When the two returned home, the eldest and second sisters were teaching Li Jiafen to study in the living room.
"Brother, little brother, are you back?" the eldest sister quickly stood up and asked.
"Ok!"
"Sit down and cool down. I'll pour you some tea."
"Jia Qi, don't worry about it, I can do it myself." Li Chengqian said quickly.
"It's okay, big brother."
It's really hot outside. Now I'm sitting in front of the fan. It's really comfortable!
Although a fan cannot be compared with an air conditioner, it is enough in this era.
Although air conditioners are available at this time, how many people use them?
And those who can use air conditioners are definitely not ordinary people.
This is because the electricity used in ordinary people's homes is simply not enough to power air conditioners.
Otherwise, Li Jiayi would have installed air conditioning long ago. Even though air conditioners are very expensive now, it is not a problem for him who has a large amount of foreign exchange in his hands.
Nowadays, people use electricity at home mainly for lighting, so the voltage is very low.
Not to mention the air conditioner, it can't even power the refrigerator, and can only power household appliances like the washing machine, which does not have very high power.
"Sister, you're still drinking tea in such hot weather! Open the watermelon you froze this morning." Li Jiayi said while looking at the steaming tea in front of him.
"Okay, wait, I'll start right away."
The ice cubes that Li Jiayi brought back every night were so big that they could not be melted in one night.
So every morning, I would put the unmelted ice together and chill the watermelon.
It can also cool down the room.
"Jiafen, let's learn later. Let's eat watermelon." Li Jialin said.
"Uh-huh!"
This girl has learned a lot during this period of time, and because she eats well, she has grown a lot taller.
And her face looks plumper, which makes her look a lot cuter.
