Chapter 1366 The House is Too Nice
Liu Meilan said the same thing to others: she would give high salaries and bonuses, the only requirement being that they must abide by the law and not accept bribes.
Upon hearing this, Niu Gang quickly assured him, "President Liu, don't worry, we have principles. We'll take what we're entitled to, and we won't take a single penny that we're not entitled to!"
Xiao Chen quickly chimed in, "If you take money that you don't have a conscience, you won't feel at ease spending it! We're not thinking about getting rich or powerful, we just want our family to live a peaceful life!"
Hu Jian chuckled, "Look, do you think those who would be on my side are the kind of people who are greedy for petty gains? In the end, the reason we're ostracized is because we're too honest!"
Liu Meilan smiled and nodded, "I can't control what other units do, but it's good that our unit is upright. We won't let you down!"
After disembarking from the yacht, we got into a car and headed straight for the Sifang Island Building.
Liu Meilan had already made a phone call beforehand, and the head of the human resources department took Hu Jian, Niu Gang, and Xiao Chen to sign the labor contracts and complete the onboarding procedures.
Once everything was ready, the HR manager took out three boxes, each labeled with the name of the residential complex and apartment number. "Manager Hu, you have three children, so the company has provided you with a 5-bedroom, 1-living-room apartment! Xiao Niu and Xiao Chen, you each have a 3-bedroom, 1-living-room apartment. The keys, water card, electricity card, and the property management's contact information are all inside!"
"The room has been cleaned and you can move in directly! Of course, the basic renovations have been done. If you want anything different, you'll have to pay for it yourself! The 3 yuan settlement allowance will be transferred to your bank account today! Also, your child's school enrollment documents are included. You have three days to arrange things with your family! Is that enough?"
Hu Jian replied with a smile, "That's enough! I live on Sifang Island, and these two live in the shipyard's staff dormitory. We're both local, so the move went smoothly!"
The HR manager nodded. "Okay, shall we send a car to take you to your accommodation?"
Hu Jian waved his hand, "No need, we can go by ourselves!"
At this moment, the HR manager took out another car key. "This is a mode of transportation that General Manager Liu arranged for Manager Hu, making it more convenient for him to get around!"
"Thank you, Manager Wang!" Hu Jian accepted the car without hesitation, as it would be much more convenient to travel with it.
They found the Santana in the garage. Hu Jianhui could drive, so he took Niu Gang and Xiao Chen directly to their assigned houses to take a look.
When they took out the box, the security guard let them through immediately and recorded their entry and exit information. From now on, they can just swipe their badges to enter.
Xiao Chen and Niu Gang live in the same building, but on different floors. Their rooms are the same size and layout, and the furnishings are almost identical.
I initially thought it would just be basic renovation, but I was surprised to find that it was very well decorated, and even had sofas and appliances.
Niu Gang exclaimed excitedly, "Our dormitory has two bedrooms and one living room, totaling only 60 square meters! This three-bedroom apartment is a full 110 square meters! The living room is huge, and the rooms are spacious too!"
Xiao Chen was also very excited, "Yes, my wife is having her second child, and I asked my parents to come and help take care of the baby and help with postpartum care. They can all stay here!"
"More than just enough room!" Niu Gang exclaimed excitedly. "When we have two kids, we can move to a four-bedroom, two-living-room apartment! Then we'll have two bathrooms, and the house will be even bigger, with an interior area of 135 square meters!"
Xiao Chen beamed with joy, "Then having a second child is on the agenda! Since the place is already furnished and decorated, let's hurry back and move! We've already resigned, and it's not good to stay there any longer. I bet a lot of people are waiting for their apartments and can't wait for us to move out."
“Okay!” Niu Gang agreed. “Let’s go check out Brother Hu’s apartment in the next building!”
The houses next door are all 5-bedroom, 1-living room apartments, with an interior area of 160 square meters. There are 4 bedrooms and 1 study.
When Hu Jian opened the door and saw such a big house, he was so excited that his nose tingled. Even if Zhang Xiufang brought her three children to live here, they could live a very decent life!
He immediately called Zhang Xiufang, "Xiufang, the house Meilan arranged for us is so big and nice! We are so grateful!"
Zhang Xiufang was at work when she received a call from her husband. She laughed and said, "Today is our day off, and the nanny is taking care of the children! Let's take Chongyang and Xiaoli over there to decorate the room!"
Hu Jian beamed, "Great! Then I won't buy anything today. We'll buy everything together when you come over! Chongyang will be coming next year. He'll be going to high school in the city and will live in this neighborhood. It's only four bus stops away from the high school, and a 15-minute bike ride! Let's decorate it nicely for him!"
Zhang Xiufang was touched, "Thank you for going to so much trouble!"
"Isn't this what we should do?" Hu Jian said with a smile. "Niu Gang and Xiao Chen were also allocated a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment, fully furnished and equipped with all the necessary appliances. They can move in right away!"
Zhang Xiufang cautioned, "Although you are very principled, I still have to remind you. Meilan is a really good person. She has a high salary and good benefits. You've all seen my work over the years; I've made a lot of money. So you must never engage in embezzlement or bribery!"
Hu Jian wholeheartedly agreed, "You can rest assured, we will only take the salary and benefits we are entitled to, and we will absolutely not ask for anything else! This house, in this location, with this kind of decoration, you simply couldn't buy it back for less than a million!"
Zhang Xiufang rolled her eyes. "You think you can buy a 5-bedroom, 1-living-room apartment for a million yuan, especially in such a good location? How is that possible? According to market prices, that apartment is already worth 160 million yuan! Niu Gang and Xiao Chen's 3-bedroom, 1-living-room apartment is already worth 100 million yuan! In the future, houses in Shanghai will become more and more expensive. Maybe in 10 or 20 years, these houses will be worth tens of millions!"
Hu Jian nodded repeatedly, "As for other things, I might not be sure, but house prices will definitely go up! Too many people are flocking to Yuncheng, and where there are people, there is housing demand!"
The couple were chatting enthusiastically when they heard the doorbell ring, and Hu Jiancai reluctantly hung up the phone.
Hu Jian opened the door. "I was just about to look for you. Come in quickly!"
Niu Gang looked at the huge house with longing, "Brother Hu, if we work hard, can we also have a house like this?"
Hu Jian smiled and nodded, "For ordinary positions, a four-bedroom apartment is already the best you can get! But once you become managers, and have three children, that's enough!"
Niu Gang's expression was somewhat complicated. "Two children is the limit. Three children? I don't have the energy! It would be great if you could change me to a four-bedroom apartment!"
Xiao Chen's eyes lit up. "We live in company housing, and with the money we've earned over the years, plus the high salaries the company pays, we can totally invest in real estate elsewhere. It's more reliable than buying stocks!"
Hu Jian's eyes lit up with approval. "You're right. Once you've saved enough for a down payment, buy a house and then pay off the mortgage! The increase in house prices will be enough to cover the mortgage payments! Besides, when the kids grow up, they'll need a house to get married!"
The three men began to dream about their future life, their hearts filled with excitement.
