Old man Yu is a warehouse keeper, commonly known as a warehouse keeper.
Don't underestimate the old man in the warehouse, especially in this day and age.
Many of the old men who look at the warehouses are veterans of the Anti-Japanese War or the War of Liberation.
His connections may lead directly to the Military Commission.
Just because I have no knowledge, I can only do some simple jobs.
In fact, even in later generations, the custodians in the warehouse are not simply related to the boss or relatives, or to the leader and confidants.
Anyway, most people can't be a warehouse keeper.
"The spring breeze of the Party's reform!" the fat aunt replied with a hearty smile, and then pulled Zhang Junping into the office.
This office was built later, using red bricks. The office built next to the royal granary was so out of place with the entire granary.
But this is in line with the pragmatism of this era.
You may not have noticed that a good courtyard house can be transformed into a large courtyard house, which is built like a maze.
This royal granary is also called Nancang or Nanxincang.
Each granary is twenty-four meters wide, seventeen meters deep, and seven meters high. It is absolutely suitable as a warehouse for storing old furniture.
"Lao Yutou, didn't you mention last time that there were several warehouses that were idle and no one was repairing the leaky roofs?"
"What? Your street is going to help us repair the roof?
This is not right! This is not your Wangfujing Street territory."
"We will repair it for you, what do you think? I will introduce you to a tenant. This is Master Xiao Zhang, a college student from Central America.
He wants to rent those idle warehouses you have and they can repair the roofs themselves." The fat aunt spoke like a machine gun, telling the story over and over again.
"That won't work. This warehouse is public property and cannot be rented to private individuals!" Old Man Yu refused simply.
"What's wrong with renting to private individuals? You old man has a problem with your thinking!
What age are we in? Private business operations are allowed by the state, so why do you think they are all speculators?" The fat aunt spat all over the old man's face.
"Anyway, this is the property of the state and cannot be rented to private individuals!" Old Yu was very stubborn. No matter what the fat aunt said, he would not rent it to private individuals.
"I said, why don't you, old man, have no ventilation? Your department store has built a new warehouse. Sooner or later, this old warehouse will be idle. Why don't you rent it out and let it sit idle and get moldy?
I think your thinking is very problematic. These warehouses are the property of the country, and you just watch them idle until they are all broken and rotten? You are wasting state-owned resources!" The fat aunt pinched her waist and pointed at Old Man Yu and scolded him.
road.
Zhang Junping was speechless watching the two people arguing.
Fat aunt, have you forgotten something? I am not renting privately. I am a serious school-run factory.
"I don't care. It can't be rented to private individuals anyway. I've already reported to my superiors and applied for funds for repairs!" Old Man Yu is not an ordinary stubborn person.
"You have filed a report, but what about the funds? Have you applied for it?
Also, who told you that it was rented to a private person?" The fat aunt finally stopped arguing with Old Man Yu about whether it could be rented to a private person, and turned around and said with a smile.
"Master Xiao Zhang is the person in charge of the college student practice base affiliated with Central Academy of Fine Arts. He rented it on behalf of the public!" He said and raised a provocative eye.
"Young man, why are you renting a warehouse for Central America? Do you have a letter of introduction?" Old Yu didn't care about the fat aunt's provocation. He turned to look at Zhang Junping and asked.
"Uncle Yu, I didn't bring a letter of introduction. I came here today mainly to see if the place is suitable for a warehouse.
The purpose of renting a warehouse is to store old furniture.”
"You Central America rented a warehouse just to store old furniture?" Old Yu said with disbelief on his face.
"I'm telling you, old man Yu, are you nagging? You don't care what people store! What's the matter? If you don't rent to private individuals, rent to the public, you still want to restrict what people can store?" the fat aunt said from the side.
"I always have to ask what it is used for. This is a public warehouse..."
"Just say whether to rent or not! If you dare to say not to rent, I will go to the leadership to tell you that you want to occupy the public property!" the fat aunt threatened.
"Rent, I didn't say no, young man, are you sure you're just going to store the old furniture and do nothing else?" Old Man Yu didn't argue with the fat aunt, he just looked at Zhang Junping and asked.
"Yes, just store old furniture!"
"Okay, there are four warehouses vacant now. How many of them do you want to rent?"
"Rent four rooms!"
"Rent four rooms? One room costs twenty yuan a month, four rooms cost eighty yuan!
You are responsible for repairing the roof, and I will give you two months' rent!" Old Man Yu was very straightforward this time.
Not only did they agree to rent it to Zhang Junping, they also directly exempted the rent for two months.
However, it was Zhang Junping's turn to hesitate again. Renting a warehouse is not a big deal, but it's not something you can decide by looking at the warehouse, right?
"Old man Yu, you are too good at calculating, aren't you? Two months' free rent only costs 160 yuan, and even 500 yuan to repair the roof may not be enough!" The fat aunt continued to yell next to her.
: "At least half a year's rent must be waived."
"impossible!"
"How is it impossible?"
"impossible!"
"What's impossible?"
…
The two of them were quarreling like children, staring at each other.
After arguing for a long time, no reason could be found.
But in the end, Old Man Yu took a step back and waived the rent for four months.
Zhang Junping wanted to buy it directly, but unfortunately, seeing the old man's attitude, it was impossible, so Zhang Junping didn't even mention it.
Anyway, let’s take over the warehouse first, and we’ll talk about the rest later.
Because Zhang Junping did not bring a letter of introduction, there was no lease contract. Mr. Yu was very principled.
Without a letter of introduction, even fat aunts can’t help.
On the way back, the fat aunt explained to Zhang Junping: "Master Zhang, don't think that old man Yu is just a warehouse manager. Before he retired, he was the director of the supply and marketing cooperative.
It’s just that my temper is too bad. We are old neighbors. I used to work fine. After I retired, I quarreled with my wife or neighbors every day at home. I didn’t like anything. In the end, I just took a job looking after a warehouse and moved to
Come and live in a warehouse to keep your mind pure.
The current department store managers are all his apprentices, so it’s definitely easy for the old man to talk..."
"Aunt Lin, thank you so much today. Not only did you help rent the warehouse, but you also saved me hundreds of dollars." Although Zhang Junping didn't care about the hundreds of dollars, he had to accept the favor from the fat aunt.
"It's okay, you don't have to be polite to Auntie, I didn't help much, I just said a few words.
If you have anything to do in the future, just talk. You don’t have to go all the way, just make a phone call." The fat aunt said cheerfully.
During the period before and after the new year, the fat aunt made a lot of money from Zhang Junping.
I’ve almost made back the money I spent on a set of furniture and decoration.
