Chapter: 75
"I remember that 'Tingen Housing Improvement Company' is located on Narcissus Street." Benson said as he opened the door, "They are called 'Five Percent Charity' just like 'Tingen Working Class Housing Improvement Association', I know it is For what?"
"I don't know." Klein lifted his cane and walked beside Melissa.
And the girl with black hair draped softly to the vest also nodded.
Benson stepped out and said: "This kind of housing improvement associations and companies were established under the influence of Backlund. There are three channels for their funds. One is to raise funds from charitable funds, and the other is to report to the public from the government. The business loan officer got a high-quality loan with an annual interest rate of only 4%. The third is to accept commercial investment. By charging a certain rent, he will give the other party a 5% return every year, so it is called "5% charity". .�
Push, push, push, the three brothers and sisters went down the stairs and walked slowly towards Narcissus Street. They planned to find the current landlord, Mr. Franky, after confirming the house, so as not to find that there was no way to move in there, and they had to move out. Condition.
"I heard from Selina that there is still that kind of purely charitable housing improvement company?" Melissa said as if she was thinking.
Benson said with a chuckle: "Yes, the 'Deville Trust Company' established by Sir Deville's donation is that he builds apartments for the working class and provides specialized property management, but only charges a very low rent. However, the requirements Very strict."
"It sounds like you don't like it too much?" Klein was keenly aware and asked with a smile.
"No, I respect Sir Deville, but I think he must not know what the life of the real poor is like. The occupancy requirements of his apartment are like the hope given by the priest, which is too unrealistic. For example, the main vaccination must be vaccinated , must take turns to clean the bathroom, cannot sublet the house or use it for business, cannot litter, cannot let children play in the corridor, Goddess, does he want to turn everyone into a gentleman and a lady?" Benson Answer in his usual tone.
Klein frowned suspiciously and said, "It doesn't sound like any problem, it's a very good request."
"Yeah." Melissa nodded in agreement.
Benson turned his head, glanced at them, and said with a chuckle: "Maybe I protect you too well, and I haven't really seen the life of the poor. Do you think they have the money to receive the main vaccines? Free charity medical care The organization queues up to three months later.�
"Do you think their jobs are stable, not temporary? If they can't rent out their houses and charge a certain fee, they will move out again when they are unemployed? And many women help people mend clothes and paste matchboxes at home Sustaining a living, this is a commercial application, should we drive them all out?"
"Most poor people are doing everything they can to make ends meet. Do you think they will have time to discipline their children so that they don't play in the corridors? Probably they can only be locked in the house, and they will be sent to the hospital when they are seven or eight years old A place that accepts child labor."
Benson described it without many adjectives, which made Klein feel a little creepy.
Is this the life of the people at the bottom?
Next to him, Melissa also fell into silence, and after a long time, she said in an ethereal tone: "After moving to the lower street, Jenny is not willing to let me go to her house to find her..."
"I hope her father can get out of the shadow of the injury and find a stable job again, but I have seen too many drunks who used alcohol to numb themselves..." Benson sneered heavily.
Klein didn't know what to say. Melissa seemed to be in the same situation. The three brothers and sisters walked to Daffodil Street in silence and found the "Tingen City Improvement Housing Company".
The person in charge of receiving them was a middle-aged man with a kind smile, no formal clothes, no hat, white shirt, and black vest.
"You can call me Skater, I wonder what kind of houses you need?" He glanced at Klein's silver-encrusted cane, and smiled more warmly.
Klein looked at Benson, who was good at eloquence, and motioned for him to answer.
Benson said very directly: "A townhouse."
Skater flipped through the documents and files in his hand, and said with an upturned corner of his mouth: "There are currently five places that have not been rented out. To be honest, we are more concerned with real housing difficulties. Six, eight, even ten, twelve Two laborers and their children squeezed into one room, there are not many townhouses, one is at No. 2 Narcissus Street, one is in the North District, and the other is in the East District... The weekly rent is 12 to 16 soli Wait, you can take a look at the specific introduction."
He pushed the document in his hand to Benson, Klein and Melissa.
After browsing through it, the three brothers and sisters looked at each other and pointed to a certain position on the paper at the same time.
"Let's look at No. 2 Narcissus Street first." Benson said, and Klein and Melissa followed suit.
This area is barely an area they are familiar with.
No. 2, No. 4 and No. 6 Narcissus Street are row buildings with polygonal hipped roofs, the overall appearance is gray-blue, and three chimneys stand prominently.
There are of course no lawns and gardens, no porch, and the entrance faces the street directly. JrNovels.com
