Li He had been thinking about the house for the past few days. When he finally went to work at the Housing Bureau on the fifth day of the New Year, he hurriedly went to find Old Man Lee.

He Fang said, "You're really a good-for-nothing. I've never seen anyone who's in a hurry to give money to others. Not to mention that the house is broken, what's the point of buying it? Besides, it doesn't have legs, so it can't run. "

"Shut up if you don't know anything. In ten years, no, in ten years, I'll surprise you." Li He gave He Fang a disdainful look. "Stay at home, I'll come back for lunch."

Today, it was sunny and warm. The snow on the road had melted a lot. Li He packed his money and household register, put on his gloves, and hurried to Old Man Lee's place on his bicycle.

Old Man Lee had been waiting anxiously for a long time. Seeing that Li He had come as promised, he quickly opened the door and let him in.

Old Man Lee locked the door. Under the dim yellow light, he opened the newspaper and grabbed a handful of the newspaper. He held it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully. He counted it carefully.

The expression on his face changed unpredictably. There was joy and sorrow, but it was more like he was immersed in memories that he could not extricate himself from.

"Master Li He?" Li He called out.

Old Man Lee came back to his senses and immediately smiled. "It's done! We'll go and sign the contract right away. When I move out, I'll give you the key! "

Li He was finally able to put down a huge stone in his heart.

The housing management office in the Fourth District was an old two-story building with obvious Soviet style. In the early days of liberation, China's architectural design team had not really grown up. At this time, the practice of imitating the Soviet model was more obvious in the architectural field. During this period, a large number of Soviet-style buildings were left on the land of China. 【Love ↑ Go △ Small ↓ Say △ Net





Typical Soviet-style architecture had two major characteristics. First, it was symmetrical on the left and right sides, with a regular plane, high in the middle and low on both sides. The main building was tall, and the cloister was wide and gently extended. Second, it had a three-section structure. The three sections referred to the eaves, the walls, and the legs.

Some of these buildings were designed by Soviet experts, such as the factories built with the aid of the Soviet Union. There were also Chinese architects who imitated the Soviet style, including tube-style dormitories and many government buildings. Soviet-style architecture was the representative of such a special era and style of "red architecture."

Old Man Lee was very familiar with this place. Obviously, he had been here more than once.

Li He followed behind, and the two of them stopped in front of an office on the second floor.

Old Man Lee knocked on the door. After getting a response from inside, he pushed the door open and entered.

"General, I'm here to handle the housing procedures." Old Man Lee said with a face full of smiles.

There was a desk in the room and a file cabinet in the corner, which was stuffed to the brim.

There were a few picture frames and slogans on the wall. A man in his thirties was sitting behind the desk, holding an enamel teapot.

The man looked up at Old Man Lee and frowned. It was obvious that Old Man Lee had been listed as an unwelcome person. He did not answer and lowered his head, pretending to look at the document.

Old Man Li pretended not to care. He dragged Li He to the table as if they were very familiar with each other. He spread the house deed on the table and said, "Officer General, I want to transfer the ownership of the house. Please help me with the procedures."

The General finally put down the document and coldly glanced at the house deed. He snorted and said: "Hmph! I thought you, Li Shubai, were enlightened and wanted to donate the house to the country. It turns out that you want to sell it! "

Old Man Li was unperturbed. A hint of anger flashed across his face, but he still forced a smile and said, "I've donated everything that's valuable in the house that should be donated. I've donated four shops along Nanhe Avenue, right? The country saw that I'm in dire straits, so they returned this house to me according to policy. I've also followed the country's policy on how to handle it."

Li He was also surprised when he heard this. The shops along Nanhe Street were located near Wangfujing.

Old Man Lee's ancestors were indeed rich and powerful. You can't judge a book by its cover.

The General glanced at him coldly and snorted again. The sarcasm was obvious. The yellow-spotted man's teeth were a little twisted, and he asked casually: "What's the relationship between you two?"

"He came to our place to inquire about the house. It just so happened that I wanted to sell it. That's how we got along," Grandma Tian quickly denied.

"You want to buy a house?" The General looked at Li He with an arrogant attitude.

Li He put the household registration book on the table: "Yes, look, this is my household registration book."

The General casually flipped through the household registration book, especially the poor farmers. He carefully looked at it several times, "Is this a collective household registration book?"

Li He took out his student ID card from his collar pocket: "This is my student ID card. The household registration file is in the school. You can check it at any time."

The file was a very serious thing.

It was a portrayal of a person's life. Some information about his studies, work, and relations with the Party would be kept in the form of documents in the file until his death.

When the General saw the student ID card, he immediately put away his arrogant attitude. Although his position was an officer, his title was not the same as that of a university cadre. Moreover, Li He was a student of Beijing University. He smiled and said: "Oh, you're a university student. Oh, why didn't you say so earlier? Why bother? I'll write the procedures for you right away."

Li He didn't care anymore. With a smile on his face, he said, "Thank you so much. Please help me with the procedures as soon as possible. I'm in a hurry to go back for dinner. If I go back late, my family will be waiting anxiously. Hehe …"

The officer looked Li He up and down several times. He was not a short-sighted person. He did not want to offend Li He for no reason. Once Li He went to work, he might be in trouble. He did not dare to make things difficult for Li He. He smiled and began to look through the files to copy the transfer procedures.

A few years ago, his wife from the countryside brought a few children over to seek shelter. It took him a lot of effort to get the household registration book.

In the end, a university student easily got the household registration book of Beijing University. It was really infuriating.

He had envied Old Man Li's house before. It was a big courtyard with two entrances, more than 500 square meters. There were jade and porcelain pieces, calligraphy and paintings on the walls, mahogany furniture, silk embroidered curtains, crystal lamps, golden water faucets … and all kinds of foreign things that he could not name.

Of course, it was not that he did not feel pity when he confiscated it. But in the end, he could not resist his jealousy. He could not let this kind of person live a good life.

Thinking back to that time, it was like he was in a dream. No, he could not even dream of so many things that he had never seen before. The scene at that time was still remembered clearly!

Now, every day when he returned to his small broken house after work, he saw his wife's thick waist holding a ladle to cook. His children were crying and making noise. Not to mention peace, there was not even a place to walk in the house.

Every time he thought of the scene in the past, he always regretted it. If his thinking was a little more advanced, maybe he would have been allocated that house. Breaking up with his wife from the countryside, marrying a young female student from the city, and living in that house. How comfortable would his life be?

Now, such a good house was occupied by more than a dozen poor families. Thinking about it made his heart unhappy.

The General was absent-minded. He slowly completed the procedures.

Li He took it and looked at it carefully. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he nodded and smiled: "Thank you, General."

Taking the opportunity to shake the General's hand, he stuffed 5 RMB into the General's hand. Both sides smiled.

The General became more enthusiastic. He felt that it was not bad. "Student Li, you can look for me if you have any difficulties in the future."

Li He came out of the room and went to the finance department to pay 3 RMB for the property tax according to the area. He got the official house deed. Li He was really satisfied with this efficiency. The 5 RMB was well spent.

Of course, the scene just now did not escape Old Man Li's eyes. "Young man, I can't tell that you are still a university student. You are promising. But you still spoil these people too much."

Li He proudly waved the house deed in his hand. "A problem that can be solved with money is never a problem."
