Anne looked at it, this was not the fifty-year-old woman who participated in the piano final together at the Bandung Department Store.

The old woman on the opposite side obviously recognized Anne as well, and said with a smile, "Classmate Dang, we meet again." ”

"Hello, Teacher Qin!"

In a casual conversation after the game that day, Anne and the old woman briefly introduced themselves.

Therefore, Anne knew that this old woman's surname was Qin and she taught English at S University.

And Teacher Qin also knew that Anne's name was Dang Anne, and she was a sophomore student at J University.

"Ouch, you know each other?"

The intermediary was a young man of twenty-five or sixteen years old, who looked very capable, and his eyes turned between Anne and Teacher Qin, and his heart was a little worried.

In recent years, in order to save agency fees, many landlords and tenants will contact each other privately after meeting, and then bypass the agent to reach a deal on their own.

If it's an acquaintance, the odds are even greater.

Although this is only renting, the agency fee is one month's rent.

The rent of the dormitory of the faculty of S University is high, but the house rented today is two bedrooms and one living room, and the monthly rent is about 2,020.

According to the regulations, the intermediary will charge both parties an intermediary fee, which adds up to more than 4,000 yuan.

The share that falls into the hands of the intermediary staff is only a few hundred dollars.

But no matter how small the mosquito is, it is also meat, on this hot day, he is helping to find a house, and he is running before and after running to see the house, is it easy?

If all this hard-earned money is wasted, he will really vomit to death.

"I've met once. ”

Teacher Qin Xu has been teaching English all year round, and although she is in her fifties, she is still very fashionable. The temperament is also very good.

She felt the wariness in the intermediary's tone, and couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, "Let's take a look at the house first." ”

"Okay. ”

The agent nodded and entered the door with Anne.

The dormitory of the S University is a building at the beginning of this century, all of which are six-story structures, there are no elevators, and the layout of the houses is not as compact as the elevator rooms.

Mr. Qin's house has two bedrooms and one living room, with a total of 80 square meters.

The living room is very large, about 35 square meters, the master bedroom and the second bedroom are facing the sun, and the second bedroom has a small balcony.

Because the house is on the first floor, Mr. Qin did not seal the small balcony, but like many first-floor residents, he made the balcony into a sliding door, and enclosed the open space outside the balcony to form an independent small courtyard.

This open space is not small, and Anne visually looks like twenty or thirty square meters.

Some residents have built their own houses on this vacant land, which directly serves as a separate room.

Some residents have reclaimed it into vegetable patches, gardens, or used to store sundries.

"As you can see, my house says it's two bedrooms and one living room, but in fact it has an extra yard. ”

Teacher Qin pushed open the sliding door and showed the small courtyard to Anne and the intermediary.

The small courtyard is very clean, and in the middle of the courtyard is a grape trellis, and bunches of purple-red grapes adorn the entire grape trellis.

The shelves were empty, but looking at the marks on the ground, Anne speculated that there should have been a set of tables and chairs here.

The courtyard was surrounded by shelves three or four stories high, and the shelves were all empty, and Anne glanced at them, well, these shelves should have been filled with various flower pots before.

The walls of the yard are not low and there are separate gates, so you don't have to worry about security and access at all.

Anne looked at it and was very satisfied.

Although the house is old, the landlord takes care of it, and the walls, floors and kitchen and bathroom are very clean.

As long as you clean it and add some furniture and kitchen utensils, you can move in directly.

"We are a faculty dormitory at S University, and the left and right sides are occupied by teachers and staff from the school. ”

Seeing that Anne was silent and not in a hurry, Teacher Qin introduced softly at his own pace, "We are all old neighbors who have lived for more than ten years, and we are familiar with each other. In line with the principle of being responsible for oneself and one's neighbors, occasionally renting or selling a house, not only the landlord must confirm whether the tenant or buyer is reliable, but also the neighbors will help with the assessment. ”

Therefore, the kind of people who look restless, unreliable, or have too low quality, no matter how much money they give, the homeowner will not dare to agree.

First, he was afraid that his house would be ruined, and secondly, he was also worried that his neighbors would have opinions.

Mr. Qin's son bought them a house near the wetland park, although it is just an ordinary commercial house, but the environment there is good, the air is good, and it is suitable for the elderly to care for the elderly.

She hadn't retired before, and the dormitory was close to the school, so it was easy to commute to work, so they didn't move.

When she retired this year, she wanted to live in a house in the wetlands.

Mr. Qin is an old generation and is used to being thrifty, even if the pension of himself and his wife is not low, and his son is filial, they will not watch the house idle.

Besides, if the house has been empty for a long time, it is easy to fall into disrepair.

Teacher Qin discussed with his wife and simply decided to rent out the house.

However, they know the rules of the faculty dormitory of S University, and they also have their own insistences.

Every time the agent calls Ms. Qin, she will screen it first: it is best to be a single girl, or a newly married couple, with a bachelor's degree or above, no criminal record, no record of dishonesty, no drunkenness, smoking and other bad habits. It is best to be a student of S University, who is currently studying for graduate school or doctoral degree......

A few conditions can directly swipe more than half of the people with a card.

However, the location of the dormitory for teachers and staff of S University is good, and it is a rare school district house, and some people are still willing to rent it under such strict conditions.

"That's good, the neighbors are either university teachers or well-known professors, a proper 'cultural treasure'. If you live here, you can't help but spur yourself. ”

Seeing that Anne didn't say anything, the agent hurriedly helped the landlord to speak, lest she be scared away by the landlord's various restrictions.

Teacher Qin didn't care about the agent's eagerness, and looked at Anne seriously, "Classmate Dang, you should still be a college student, why are you renting a house outside?"

She was afraid that Anne would run out and live with her boyfriend.

She is a teacher, she looks foreign on the outside, but in fact, there are some traditions on the inside, and she does not approve of college students living together and getting married.

Especially girls, she thinks it's better to love herself, after all, whether it's cohabitation or unfortunate strokes, it's the woman who is hurt afterwards or even affects the rest of her life.

"I am an orphan and have no home. ”

Anne did not hide her identity, and said lightly: "I have to work during the winter and summer vacations, and it is inconvenient to live in school. In the past, in order to commute to work, I would always look for a job near J University, which was too limited. A few days ago, Professor Qu of S Art introduced me to a job that went to a training class to teach, and that training class was near S University - "It's a little far away from J University."

Teacher Qin nodded, indicating that he accepted this reason.

Anne added, "If the work of this training course is okay, I want to continue to do it until I graduate from university." ”

So, the landlord doesn't have to worry about her staying for two months and then leaving.

Teacher Qin is finally satisfied, this little girl is a college student, she plays the piano well, and she knows the professor of S Art, and she looks quiet and well-behaved, not like a person who will cause trouble.

In fact, even if Anne will have a boyfriend in the future and will live with others here, as long as they are not noisy or noisy and take good care of the house, Mr. Qin will not care too much.

Both parties were satisfied, the rent was suitable, and a rental agreement was quickly reached.

The agent sighed secretly, this house is finally rented out, and the sales commission is in hand!

After negotiation, the monthly rent of the house was set at 2,100, and the mortgage was paid three, plus the intermediary fee for one month's rent, Anne spent 10,500 yuan at once.

The prize money of the piano competition is 18,000 in total, and 10,500 is used in "Easy Huabei", and 7,500 is left.

Coupled with the money she earned in the musical instrument shop, as well as the two months of salary she had saved before, the total was only 13,300.

A few days ago, she went back to the welfare home and gave the director 1,000 yuan.

After paying the rent and intermediary fees, the money on Anne's bank card was only 1,800 in an instant.

Fortunately, the professor Qu she met during the piano competition introduced her to a job as a piano teacher, with a daily salary of 300, and only two classes a day, each lesson lasted an hour and a half.

In such a month, you can earn eight or nine thousand.

The money for furniture and kitchenware has been settled.

In addition, the working hours of the training class are not long, and Anne can do something else, such as writing, "self-study" other homework, and pave the way for her own "transformation" in the future.

In order to save money, Anne moved the bedding, basins, and kettles printed with the word J into her new home one by one under the inquiring eyes of her neighbors......
