Chapter 32 Director Hao Wants to Live in a Low-Rent Housing
Here we have to say that Yan Guoliang has political wisdom.

Before leaving, he first used the so-called order of the late governor's death without proof to set up the ICAC's airs. At that time, the new joint signature commissioner can directly take advantage of him, which is extremely beneficial for expanding the power and influence of the ICAC. In recognition of his sympathy, although the two departments were set up at the same time, he did not change the personnel structure, which greatly facilitated the placement of his own people and control of the ICAC.

However, in exchange, Hao Ren was given the position of Director of the Operations Department by him. In addition, Hao Ren is indeed popular. Although his foundation is shallow, his prestige is enough, and he is also the number one hero in arresting Lei Luo. As long as the new commissioner does not have any irreconcilable conflicts with Hao Ren, he is unlikely to be moved. This also ensures that his own influence within the ICAC will not be lost too quickly.

In short, this appointment is a win-win for Yan Guoliang, the new commissioner, and Hao Ren!

Although Hao Ren had actually been acting as the agent of Yan Guoliang to deploy the whole department before this, but after all, if the name is not right, the words are not right. Now that Hao Ren has become the serious Director Hao, the power has naturally increased greatly, especially Yan Guoliang. After announcing his appointment, he continued to go back to the hospital for treatment. Before the new commissioner formally took office, Hao Ren's powers and responsibilities were no different from those of the ICAC commissioner.

Naturally, according to the rules of Hong Kong Island, since Hao Ren was promoted, he had to throw a big feast.

These grandsons of the ICAC actually ate more than 1000 yuan from him at the Backbone Hotel!
As an officer of the ICAC, Hao Ren must lead by example and be strict with himself. He does not want to use many other methods of making money that are indispensable to other civil servants and are not corrupt. Hao Ren returned all the congratulatory gifts sent to him by guests from all over the world, regardless of their value, and it was even a little unreasonable.

After doing this...

Hao Ren's entire net worth is only over 200 yuan now.

He hasn't rented a house yet, and he has no money to rent a house.

Brother Ren, who is both black and white, has no money to rent a house, so he is very embarrassed.

Of course, as long as he said something, there are many people out there eager to lend or even give Hao Ren their luxurious villas to live in. Finding a place to stay is just a matter of words for him, but Still the same sentence: be strict with yourself and lead by example.

So the next day, Hao Ren found Lu Minghua in great difficulty.

At this time, Lu Minghua was still sitting in his secretary's office, but it could be seen that he was not in a good state of mind. After all, even Yan Guoliang had to move his position to the next emperor's close minister, let alone his secretary. Well, the secretary is not a high-ranking official, and his career prospects seem to be very bleak at present.

"Hao Ren? Why are you here? Sit down, please sit down. I heard that you have been promoted. Director of the Operations Department. You are so majestic. I will call you Hao Department from now on. Maybe I will have to rely on you in the future." with me."

"Secretary Lu, don't make fun of me. What kind of director am I? All ICAC personnel are hired. In essence, my director is no different from the leaders of small departments in private companies. It's okay to say it. Don’t make people die laughing.”

Lu Minghua smiled and made him a cup of coffee.

"Why, ask me for help."

"Yes, that... Secretary Lu, I want to apply for a low-rent apartment, can you help me?"

"Pfft~" Lu Minghua spit out a sip of coffee, "No way, the head of the ICAC, the famous smiling tiger in the Jianghu, wants to live in a rented house?"

Hao Ren only responded with a wry smile: "I can't help it, isn't it because we are short of money, and our ICAC can't live in the civil servants' dormitory."

"If you want me to support you, I can lend you some money."

If Hao Ren is willing to borrow money, he can still rent a low-rent house, especially for government officials who work in the government. This money can't be borrowed, so he shook his head: "No, I'm just in a hurry. I'll wait for two After I got my salary and money in my pocket, I moved out to find a house."

Lu Minghua frowned slightly: "I know you are anti-corruption, but isn't this a bit too exaggerated?"

"Don't take the evil as a small matter. I am clean, and I will have enough confidence when I arrest people in the future. Please help me, Sir Lu."

If Lu Minghua's perception of Hao Ren was admiration before, now he actually admires him a little.

"Don't worry, although I have lost power now, this kind of trivial matter is nothing to me. I will let you stay tonight. Forget it, just wait here. I will make a call."

"Thank you."

In front of Hao Ren, Lu Minghua made a phone call. Ordinary people would have to wait in line for half a year or more to get a low-rent apartment. Hao Ren was arranged within 5 minutes.

As for Hao Ren's high salary, living in low-rent housing does not meet the declaration requirements, so it was deliberately ignored by that side, and Hao Ren himself didn't know it at all.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Minghua also said: "When the person on the other side heard that it was you, they said they would give you the best low-rent housing. These days, the Finance Secretary has no choice but to give you ICAC face."

"The best? What do you mean, is there a distinction between good and bad low-rent housing?"

"Who knows, let's go and show you your new home. It's all done. Anyway, before the governor of New Port took office, you and I were idlers."

"it is good."

………………

The first batch of low-rent houses on Hong Kong Island were all built in Sham Shui Teh, which became a slum area. Of course, there is a limit to the slums. At least everyone who can live here has a household registration. Compared with Kowloon City A place like Zhai is much stronger.

But a slum is a slum, and there is no elevator for sure. The worst thing is that there is no partition inside the house, and the tenants need to separate it by themselves. Often, several families live in a small room, which makes life very inconvenient and independent. There are no toilets and bathrooms, not even a kitchen, and everyone cooks in the corridor at night.

In such a place, among other things, Hao Ren couldn't stand the smell as soon as he entered the room.

Lu Minghua also frowned, pinched his nose and said, "Aren, let's forget it."

Hao Ren couldn't help it, but since he decided to do this show, there was no reason to give up halfway.

"That's it, it's fine, it's nothing. Director Wang, where is my room?"

Director Wang, who was in charge of apartment allocation, immediately smiled and flattered: "Director Hao is as clean as water and sets an example. He is really a role model for our civil servants. You are so young, so amazing. I think you will definitely The name will go down in history.”

Lu Minghua frowned: "Don't rush to flatter, just lead the way."

"Yes, yes, please come with me, both of you. In our low-rent housing, in fact, every room is the same, but we can still choose one neighbor. The neighbor I chose for Hao Chu is absolutely the same. Renting a house, the best neighbor to get along with."

When they reached the third floor, Director Wang knocked on the door and shouted, "A Ling, open the door, I've found you a good roommate."
