Lend the house to the Jia family to live in?
That's like throwing a meat bun at a dog - a one-way trip.
Lu De Min sneered inwardly.
…
Jia Zhang Shi, Jia Dong Xu, and Qin Huai Ru, upon hearing this, were all overjoyed, looking at Lu De Min with anticipation.
"What's your name?" Lu De Min asked Yi Hai Zhong.
"Yi Hai Zhong!" Yi Hai Zhong answered subconsciously.
"How much do you earn a month?" Lu De Min asked again.
Yi Hai Zhong had a bad feeling, but still answered truthfully: "My monthly salary plus allowance is sixty-eight yuan and fifty cents!"
Lu De Min remembered that in the original drama, in 1966, ten years later, Yi Hai Zhong was an eighth-level worker, earning ninety-nine yuan a month.
The higher the work level, the harder it is to advance, requiring a long time to upgrade.
Looking at his salary, Yi Hai Zhong should be a sixth-level fitter now. It's normal to have only risen two levels in ten years.
"Do you have any children?" Lu De Min, with a blatant disregard for his feelings.
Yi Hai Zhong's face showed some strangeness, he mumbled: "No!"
"That means you two only, you definitely can't spend all sixty-eight yuan and fifty cents a month, fifteen yuan should be enough, so I suggest you give the remaining fifty-three yuan and fifty cents to the residents of the courtyard who are in need.
After all, you can't spend that much money, and you'll also help your neighbors, everyone will appreciate you, how about that?
If you can do it, I might consider lending the house to the neighbors too!"
…
As soon as Lu De Min finished speaking, the entire courtyard was in an uproar.
Their eyes lit up, looking at Lu De Min.
This kid is not simple.
He easily defused Yi Hai Zhong's moral blackmail.
Because they knew Yi Hai Zhong wouldn't agree.
They knew Yi Hai Zhong too well.
…
Sure enough, Yi Hai Zhong was stunned upon hearing this.
Unexpectedly, the boomerang he "threw out" hit him back, it was really embarrassing.
Yi Hai Zhong coughed and said: "My wife's health is not good, there are many places where we need money, and we also need to take care of Deaf Old Lady, there's no spare money to help others.
If you don't want to lend the house to the neighbors, then so be it.
Why involve me in this!
Alright! I have something to do, I'll go take care of it!"
Yi Hai Zhong was also afraid that Lu De Min would keep pestering him about his salary, so he quickly retreated.
…
Seeing that Yi Hai Zhong, who could help them, had left, Jia Zhang Shi, Jia Dong Xu, and Qin Huai Ru, with no more leverage to bargain, left in a huff.
Jia's house.
"Mom, are we just going to let that kid take the house? I'm so upset!" Jia Dong Xu sat down on the bed, his face full of gloom.
"Giving up is impossible! But the house was assigned to him by the Military Control Station, force won't work, neither will persuasion. We'll have to find another way!" Jia Zhang Shi said with a grim face.
"Mom's right! We can't give up, we have to keep looking for ways!" Qin Huai Ru also refused to give up, immediately echoing.
…
After chasing away those beasts, Lu De Min continued cleaning.
【Ding! Physical +1】
【Ding! Physical +1】
【Ding! Physical +1】
【Ding! Physical +1】
【Ding! Physical +1】
…
Soon evening came.
Lu De Min closed the door, ate the last steamed bun provided by the relief station, and then entered his space to eat fruit.
He was soon pleasantly surprised.
The fruit in his personal space was not only delicious but also very filling, he was overjoyed.
…
Almost at the same time.
Wang Tong finished her work and rode her bike back home.
Wang Tong lived in a three-story building with an independent yard.
There was a jeep parked in the yard.
"Mom! I'm back!" Wang Tong parked her bike, closed the yard gate, and walked inside, shouting to a beautiful woman who was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper.
"Tong Tong's back! Were you busy today?" The beautiful woman said with a smile.
If Lu De Min were here, he would have realized that the beautiful woman in front of him was none other than his benefactor, Director Qu.
…
"Mom! I want to ask you about someone!" Wang Tong sat down beside her mother, affectionately holding her mother's arm.
"My dear, who do you want to ask about?" Qu Lin showed a charming smile, looking at her daughter with affection.
"His name is Lu, Lu De Min, I heard from Director Wang that you specially wrote a letter of introduction for him…" The image of Lu De Min's handsome face appeared in Wang Tong's mind.
