Fast-paced era: a warm and leisurely life

Chapter 486 The Orphan Abandoned by the Times 23

The police registered Gu Nuanyi's information and asked, "Can you ask your brother to come out? We need to register his information as well."

Chen Hanyu heard how Gu Nuanyi introduced

After being released, he did not reveal the truth when questioned by the police.

Gu Nuanyi smiled and asked, "Comrade Public Security, my sister and I would like to live here. Can we buy this house?"

Public Security: "Of course we welcome you to settle down in Yuancheng Village. Those who move here can choose a place to settle down. After you choose, just go to the Public Security Bureau to register. In a few days, other people will be settled here. At that time, you can select a team leader from among yourselves to go to the commune for training."

"By the way, tomorrow you two will go to the Public Security Bureau to register and then go to the commune office with the slip to get some relief food. You two came early, so go and choose where you want to live."

Gu Nuanyi pointed to the two adjacent courtyards behind him and said, "Comrade Public Security, are these two okay?"

Four years of drought and more than two years of no one living there

Houses without people will quickly fall into disrepair, and if there are hooligans or bandits coming into the village to search through it,

There are only a few habitable houses left in Yuancheng Village.

Although the government will give some resettlement money, it is only enough to simply repair the house. If you want to rebuild it, you still need money in your hand.

Looking at the two courtyards that Gu Nuanyi wanted, one of them was already so dilapidated that it was completely uninhabitable.

There is no place to start repairing, so we can only tear it down and rebuild it

The police thought, this kid is just a kid, he didn't even think about money.

So the police told Gu Nuanyi and Chen Hanyu every detail.

"If you really like this yard, why not choose the one on the right? It can be lived in after a little repair, and you two can save some resettlement money. You still need some money to live a good life."

The police really care about Gu Nuanyi and Chen Hanyu. Two children living in two yards at once is too eye-catching.

Gu Nuanyi suddenly thought of something: "Comrade Public Security, what if someone from this village comes back?"

"People who have fled famine will be arranged to live in the area nearby and given resettlement fees. If they choose to return to their original place of residence, that's fine, but they won't get the resettlement fees."

Gu Nuanyi nodded in understanding. They were given a house to live in and resettlement money. Naturally, those people would not choose to come back. After all, they would not get any money if they came back.

"Comrade Public Security, how about this? We can use the resettlement fee to buy the yard on the left. My brother will have to get married when he grows up. If we continue to live in the same yard when he grows up, we will inevitably be gossiped about."

The police nodded and said, "You are a thoughtful sister. Come to the police station tomorrow to handle the formalities."

"Okay, thank you for your help." Gu Nuanyi politely sent the police out.

After the police left, Chen Hanyu said, "Sister Gu, I'll pay for the yard on the left. The yard on the right was your home before you fled from the famine, right?"

"Yes, true and false, false and true, there is no need to tell the truth about some things. It can save a lot of trouble if we say that we both fled from famine. From now on, we will just say that and not mention other things."

Chen Hanyu nodded. "Just now I heard from the police that someone will be moving in soon. Let's quickly gather up everything we can use and then build the wall first. Sister Gu, how about we connect the two courtyards?"

Chen Hanyu gestured and expressed his thoughts: "Sister Gu, I remember you said before that the land outside is collective and we can't plant whatever we want. It just so happens that after the two courtyards are connected, the left side can be used as a vegetable garden. There is no rush to build a house."

"Okay, let's move the usable things aside first, and then go to the Public Security Bureau to register tomorrow before we do it again."

The next day

Gu Nuanyi brought Chen Hanyu to the town

Chen Hanyu looked at the storefront on the street like a curious baby

"Sister Gu, there are so many shops."

"You need a ticket to buy things in these stores. Even if you have money, you can't buy anything."

Chen Hanyu retracted his gaze and followed Gu Nuanyi into the Public Security Bureau

Gu Nuanyi took Chen Hanyu's wrist and walked into the Public Security Bureau

A female police officer came out, bent down and asked, "Kids, what are you doing in the police station?"

Gu Nuanyi: "Hello, sister, let's go to register our household registration."

"Little boy, where are your parents?"

Chen Hanyu: "Sister, we don't have any adults anymore"

The female police officer paused and touched Gu Nuanyi and the others' heads: "Let's go, I'll take you to handle the household registration."

"What are your names?"

"Gu Nuanyi/Chen Hanyu" said their names

The female police officer thought the name sounded familiar, as if she had heard someone discuss it before.

At this time, another male police officer came over and said, "These two kids were the ones we met in Yuancheng Village yesterday."

The female police officer suddenly realized, no wonder they felt so familiar, the officer who was out on duty yesterday came back and told her about these two kids.

“You two are very brave.”

Gu Nuanyi: "If you don't have courage, you won't be able to survive"

“That’s right.” They also knew that the people of Yuancheng Village had fled to escape famine two years ago, but they were also in a difficult situation at that time. There were only three people left in the entire Public Security Bureau, and they couldn’t help even if they wanted to.

It's impossible to ask those villagers not to leave.

Who will provide food and drink? We have distributed three batches of relief food, but we can no longer afford it.

The female police officer took out a piece of paper and wrote on it while asking, "Which of you two is the head of the household?"

Gu Nuanyi: "Sister, we are also planning to buy the yard next door, one for each of us"

The female police officer took out a survey form and said, "Originally, it was one household per family, but you can buy it. Give 10 yuan. The main reason is that we are afraid that other people who moved here will follow suit and ask for more houses."

"You just arrived and have no money. I will issue you a certificate first. You can go to the commune to collect the resettlement fee and then come back to pay the money."

The two thanked in unison: "Thank you, sister!"

With the certificate, we received resettlement compensation from the commune office, 20 yuan per person plus some receipts for meat, grain, sugar, cloth, etc.

After receiving the resettlement fee, the two returned to the Public Security Bureau to continue processing household registration and land deeds.

Chen Hanyu took out the money he had just received from his pocket, counted out 10 yuan and handed it to the female police officer: "Thank you, sister!"

The female police officer quickly wrote two household registration certificates and land deeds

Chen Hanyu looked at it again and again with great care, and with a bright smile, he held up the household registration certificate in front of Gu Nuanyi: "Sister Gu, I have a home!!"

Gu Nuanyi put the household registration certificate and the title deed into her arms, but actually threw them into the space.

He also smiled and said, "Let's go! Let's go home!!"

Chen Hanyu grabbed Gu Nuanyi's sleeve and shook it: "Sister Gu, how about we go shopping in those stores? I just got the tickets."

Seeing Chen Hanyu's happy expression, Gu Nuanyi did not pour cold water on him.

He responded and took Chen Hanyu to the state-owned store.
