Chapter 75 Housing Allocation Requirements
As Li Qin demonstrated his abilities, Li Huaide's attitude towards him changed significantly.
We're getting closer and closer now.
They've gone beyond simply using Li Qin as a subordinate or a tool.
Li Qin was also happy with this.
"Alright, the people from the housing management department are at work now. Let's go over there and finalize your housing matter."
Li Huaide put down his teacup.
There is a certain amount of rest time after lunch at the steel rolling mill.
"I'll do whatever Uncle Li says."
Li Qin naturally had no objections.
Led by Li Huaide, the two went straight to the Housing Management Section;
"Director Li, you're such a busy person, what brings you here today?"
As soon as I entered the Housing Management Section, Section Chief Wang Mingxin immediately came to greet me.
Although the Housing Management Section was not directly under the Logistics Department, Li Huaide was still one level above the section chief, so Wang Mingxin naturally wouldn't offend him.
Although Li Huaide was of a higher rank than Wang Mingxin, he did not act superior at all.
Upon hearing what the other person said, a smile appeared on Li Huaide's face;
"Old Wang, you're pointing this out to me. It's definitely my fault. We haven't been interacting enough. I need to correct that in the future."
Although Li Huaide was in charge of the logistics department, it did not mean that he could not interfere in other departments.
Wang Mingxin's words just now gave him a convenient excuse to contact the other party.
Wang Mingxin, the head of the Housing Management Section, naturally understood what Li Huaide meant, but he did not give a direct response.
Instead, he led Li Huaide and Li Qin into his small office.
After Li Huaide and Wang Mingxin entered the office, they each sat down.
Li Qin stood obediently behind Li Huaide.
After sitting down, Wang Mingxin and Li Huaide exchanged a few pleasantries.
At this moment, Wang Mingxin suddenly looked at Li Qin;
"Director Li, who is this young comrade?"
Li Huaide immediately smiled and said to Wang Mingxin;
"Old Wang, this is my nephew. He just started working at our steel rolling mill today."
After saying that, he immediately turned to Li Qin and said;
"Xiao Qin, this is Section Chief Wang Mingxin. You'll need to trouble Section Chief Wang with your housing allocation, so why don't you say hello?"
He was worried that Li Qin didn't understand the intricacies of the system.
In fact, although Li Qin had worked within the system, he knew some of the ins and outs through various channels.
He immediately took a step forward and greeted Wang Mingxin.
"Hello, Section Chief Wang. I am Li Qin, who has just joined our steel rolling mill family. I hope you will take good care of me in the future."
Wang Mingxin knew that Li Huaide wouldn't come to the Housing Management Department without a reason, so his personal visit today must mean he had something important to discuss.
With a young man following behind, it's easy to guess that it's related to this young man.
Li Huaide's words confirmed his suspicions. Li Huaide's purpose in coming this time was indeed related to Li Qin, and it was about the allocation of houses.
Logically speaking, this shouldn't be a big deal.
Li Huaide didn't need to come in person at all; a simple phone call would suffice.
Even for something as simple as this, Li Huaide still came in person, which made Wang Mingxin suspicious of the relationship between Li Huaide and Li Qin.
Although he was curious, Wang Mingxin responded very kindly after Li Qin greeted him.
"Comrade Li, you're too kind. With Director Li taking care of you, you don't need me at all."
Li Qin responded to Wang Mingxin's polite words with a modest smile.
At this moment, Wang Mingxin looked at Li Huaide again;
"Director Li, did you only come here now just for Xiao Li's housing allocation?"
Wang Mingxin still harbored some doubts.
Although Li Huaide did come here specifically to discuss the housing allocation for Li Qin, that's not really the case.
He smiled first, and then spoke;
"The housing allocation was just a side thing. The main reason was that I've been working at the steel mill for several years, but I've rarely talked to you, Lao Wang, so I thought I'd come and visit you."
Wang Mingxin naturally realized that this was just a polite remark.
However, since Li Huaide said so, he would just listen to it.
He looked at Li Qin again;
"Since you're being allocated a house, Xiao Li, what are your requirements for it?"
Li Qin did not speak directly, but instead looked at Li Huaide, asking for his opinion.
Upon seeing this, Li Huaide smiled and said;
"Since Old Wang has said so, feel free to speak your mind without fear."
After obtaining Li Huaide's consent, Li Qin then spoke to Wang Mingxin;
"It's like this, Section Chief Wang. I used to rent a courtyard house at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang, and I got used to living there."
Therefore, if possible, I hope I can still be allocated a house in the courtyard house at No. 95.
Wang Mingxin had originally thought that Li Qin would have some special requests, but he didn't expect it to be so simple.
It was so simple that even Wang Mingxin could hardly believe it.
He immediately looked at Li Huaide, wanting to confirm the matter.
Noticing Wang Mingxin's questioning gaze, Li Huaide simply smiled and nodded slightly.
Upon receiving confirmation, Wang Mingxin immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He was genuinely worried that Li Qin might make some difficult requests.
He'll be in a difficult position then;
If they agree, it might lead to him violating the rules; if they disagree, it might offend Li Huaide, who has a powerful background.
Fortunately, things didn't escalate to that point.
Wang Mingxin immediately broke into a bright smile;
"That's not difficult. I remember there are several empty rooms in courtyard house number 95. We can just assign you one."
Just when Wang Mingxin thought the matter was over, Li Huaide suddenly spoke up;
"Old Wang, thank you for helping my nephew."
Li Huaide first expressed his gratitude to Wang Mingxin.
Wang Mingxin immediately waved his hand and said politely;
"I'm just following the rules, no need for thanks."
Li Huaide shook his head, then suddenly spoke again:
"But as you can see, my nephew is getting on in years and will soon be looking for a partner and getting married. If there's only one room, it won't be enough when he has children."
So could we give him an extra room?
Upon hearing this, Wang Mingxin's heart skipped a beat.
He knew that if Li Huaide came in person, he wouldn't come without making any demands.
When Wang Mingxin heard that Li Huaide hoped to give Li Qin an extra room, he was somewhat troubled.
There are clear regulations for steel rolling mills when allocating housing to their employees, and there are strict requirements regarding the size of the housing.
Li Qin had just started working and, according to regulations, was only entitled to one room.
This is a clearly defined rule.
If all he asked for was a slightly larger house, Wang Mingxin would agree immediately.
Because it's very easy to operate.
But now they want to give us an extra room, which makes things difficult.
Seeing Wang Mingxin's conflicted expression, Li Qin and Li Huaide remained silent and waited quietly.
After a while, Wang Mingxin suddenly spoke;
"I only have a general impression of the courtyard house at No. 95. I'll have someone bring over the information first."
Wang Mingxin didn't want to offend Li Huaide, but he also didn't want to break the rules.
Therefore, in the end, we could only choose to check the availability of rooms in courtyard house number 95 first.
