The older surveying and mapping engineer was the captain of the second surveying and mapping team. His surname was Zhao. He smiled bitterly and said, "Director Li, let's talk in private. If there is such a thing, the Municipal Housing Administration can only suggest to urge the district-level Housing Administration to redo the survey. They can't give an administrative order to tell the district what to do and what not to do. The district will also give face to the Municipal Housing Administration and pretend to redo the survey. Most of them will give the same result. The Municipal Housing Administration can't be serious anymore. After all, we are all family. We can't undermine each other. In other words, this kind of thing will be left unsettled after going back and forth. "
Another engineer smiled and said, "Director Li, don't blame me for being honest with you. Instead of spending time on this, why don't you use your name to talk to the developer's boss or the sales manager? Just give them a call, and they'll waive all the fees for the extra square footage."
Li Rui smiled and said, "I don't want to use my name to pressure people. When encountering this kind of dispute, I usually solve the problem in a reasonable and legal way."
When Captain Zhao and the other two heard this, they both praised him.
They chatted all the way. Unknowingly, they had arrived at the entrance of Nanzhuyuan Community. Wang Youcai's wife was already waiting at the door. Li Rui stopped the car and met her. After learning that her surname was Liu, he called her Aunt Liu.
Under the lead of Aunt Liu, Li Rui and Captain Zhao followed her into the community and rushed to the property office.
After arriving, Aunt Liu said to the person in charge of the key management that she wanted to see the house. The person in charge refused. The reason was very simple and reasonable. "We don't have a record of you paying the due amount in our account. You can't get the key if you don't pay the money."
Aunt Liu said, "We don't want the key. We just want to see the house."
The person in charge said impatiently, "What's there to see? It's just a rough house. It's not as good as the design."
The moment Auntie Liu heard the design plan, she became angry and said, "What's the use of the design plan? The design plan says that the height of the house is 2.8 meters. In the end, the first and second phase are 2.6 meters. This is the lowest house in the city, right?"
The person in charge said contemptuously, "The design is the design. The actual construction is the actual construction. What do you know as a layman?"
Aunt Liu said angrily, "What do I know? I understand. You didn't follow the design plan because you wanted to save those layers of bricks. "
The house bought by Wang Youcai's family was a six-story house with windows from the north to the south. Most of the houses were made of brick and concrete for the sake of cost. That was why Auntie Liu said so.
When the person in charge heard this, he turned his face away and chatted with the old man next to him, ignoring Auntie Liu.
Auntie Liu was so angry that her face turned red. She slammed the table and said, "I don't care. I want to see the house first. If I don't see the house, I won't pay."
The person in charge turned around to look at her and said, "I'm puzzled. What can you tell from looking at the house?"
Auntie Liu was a sophisticated person. She knew that arguing with them at this time would not do her any good. Instead, it would affect the measurement later. She pointed at Li Rui and the other two and said, "The house suddenly increased by nearly ten square meters. My family has no money, so I can't afford it. I can only borrow money from my relatives and friends. These relatives and friends insist on seeing the house before they are willing to lend money. Do you think I want to come and see that run-down house? "
The person in charge's mouth moved. Just as he was about to speak, the old man beside him stood up and said, "Forget it, forget it. I'll follow them and take a look. Don't cause trouble here."
Auntie Liu looked at the old man and said, "Big Brother, do you think I'm causing trouble? I've already paid the down payment, so the house is considered mine. Even if I don't have the key, I should be able to see the house, right? "
The old man nodded and took out a bunch of keys from the drawer. Then, he found Auntie Liu's house key according to the serial number on it. He came out of the house and led the four of them to see the house.
Auntie Liu's house was Block 12, Unit 4, Room 302. As soon as they entered, a stifling feeling hit them in the face.
Li Rui looked up and thought, 'Wow, this roof is too low. No wonder Auntie Liu is so unhappy. How can there be such a low roof? If it's taller, you can reach the roof with your hand. If it's renovated, can people still live in it?'
Captain Zhao shouted in disbelief, "Your building is too low."
Auntie Liu said angrily, "The design was 2.8 meters. At first, we were told that it was 2.8 meters. In the end, it became 2.6 meters after the renovation. Isn't it because they want to save on the cost of those few layers of bricks? "
Captain Zhao shook his head and said, "Big Sister, what we saved was not only the cost of those few layers of bricks, but also the cost of cement and gravel for the joints and the corresponding cost of the reinforced concrete. We also have to consider the reduction in the depth of the foundation caused by the reduction in the total weight of the building. There are many places where we can save money. Based on the 20 centimeters less compared to the 280 centimeters height of the design, the cost was reduced by almost one-fourteenth. Of course, this calculation is not very accurate, but it's not too far off. Let's say that the developer of this residential area tenders for the construction of a six-storey, six-unit building. The total project price is ten million. After cutting corners, they can save … "At this point, he paused for a moment and continued," … save more than seven hundred thousand. Of course, if we take into account all the residential buildings in this residential area, they can save even more. "
Auntie Liu was stunned. After a while, she opened her mouth and cursed, "Damn Han Shui. He f * cking disregarded the lives of the commoners just to make some money …"
When the old property manager heard this, he sighed and said, "This matter is indeed not handled properly. Look at Han Shui, he's already the richest man in the city, yet he's still pestering the commoners for this little bit of money. It doesn't matter if he has more money. The commoners can live a good life if they save this money. Sigh. "
Captain Zhao was obviously not in the mood to listen to this nonsense. He asked for Li Rui's opinion and said, "Director Li, can we begin?"
Li Rui nodded and said, "Yes, sorry to trouble you."
The old property manager was stunned when he saw Captain Zhao and Auntie Liu take out all kinds of things from their carry-on bags. He asked in a daze, "What are you doing?"
Auntie Liu was extremely quick with her words and said, "My relative doesn't believe that the increased area will be that big, so he wants to personally measure it."
The old man laughed and said, "What can you measure by yourself? If you really want to measure it, you have to find the surveying team of the Housing Management Bureau. "
Auntie Liu said perfunctorily, "It's fine. Just do a random measurement."
The old man smiled, took out a cigarette, and went outside to smoke.
Captain Zhao and Auntie Liu were busy inside and outside the house for a while. They even drew a very detailed floor plan on a piece of paper. Then, they exchanged a few words.
Captain Zhao walked in front of Li Rui and discussed with him, "The total area of the house includes the internal building area and the shared area. Now that the internal building area is almost out, we still need to measure the shared area. However, it's a little troublesome to calculate the shared area. What I mean is that we temporarily use the shared coefficient provided by the developer to directly calculate the shared area. We'll see if the final data is consistent with the developer's specifications. If it's consistent and there are no flaws, we'll go and measure the shared area. This will save us some trouble. "
Li Rui naturally had no objections to this. He just listened to the professionals and said, "Okay, then we'll do as you say."
Captain Zhao asked, "Then we need the shared coefficient now."
Li Rui heard this and looked at Auntie Liu. He did not know if she knew.
Auntie Liu said, "The shared coefficient is 15%."
The two engineers replied with an "oh" and started calculating with a calculator.
After a while, Captain Zhao said to Li Rui, "Director Li, the calculations are out. The total area of the house, including the shared area, is a total of 138.63 square meters."
When Auntie Liu heard this number, she immediately shouted, "I knew it. The Housing Management Bureau colluded with the developer long ago. They must have given a fake area. Otherwise, how could there be so much more? My original house purchase contract stated that it was less than 135 square meters. They gave an extra 9.6 square meters. Other people have an extra one or two square meters. Some people have an extra three or four square meters. Our house has an extra ten square meters. Who would believe it? Now that the real area has been measured, it's clearly only 138 square meters, but they said it's 145 square meters. This won't do. I have to argue with them. "After saying that, she was about to walk out angrily.
Li Rui hurriedly stopped her and said, "Auntie Liu, don't be anxious. Discuss it slowly. Don't be rash."
Auntie Liu said angrily, "They are such bullies. Do they think that we are fat pigs that they can slaughter as they wish? I have to seek justice from them. Do they think that our family's money grows on trees and they can ask for as much money as they want? "
Li Rui persuaded her, "Don't worry, Auntie Liu. I will definitely seek justice for you, but we can't be rash now …"
Captain Zhao also said, "Yes, we can't be rash. If the developer and the Housing Management Bureau can give us the final measurement, it means that they have an explanation that is sufficient to deal with the owner's doubts. Even if you go to them with the measured area, they will have an explanation. You have to know that the building area of the house can't be tampered with, but the shared area can be mixed with a lot of tricks. For example, if you go to them now, they will tell you that the shared coefficient you used to calculate the shared area is the average shared coefficient of all the buildings in the neighborhood, not your building. Then, they will give you the shared coefficient of this building, for example, 20% or 24%. You will be stunned. "
When Auntie Liu heard this, she was stunned before she could go to the developer. She looked at him in confusion.
