Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Rental Turmoil

Zhang Lingjing was angry when he heard this, and his heart was full of anger. She suddenly remembered that this is not the life she should have, it is for a girl named Liu Yuyan, continue to live, and complete the wish task arranged by the system for herself, the wish task called Liu Yuyan - Liu Yuyan's wish is that she hopes that someone can replace her to live a wonderful life, she can fall in love with Zhang Hui, the school grass, take care of her grandmother and live happily, so that everyone can look down on herself.

Zhang Lingzhong thinks that he should study hard at this age, and if he doesn't study, he will lose the opportunity to close the "gap" with excellent people of the same age, and when he gets older, the gap will get bigger and bigger. Zhang Ling's face was pale, and he didn't know what to do after racking his brains, and suddenly his eyes lit up and remembered the six thousand yuan that the hospital's "nouveau riche uncle" smashed in a bullish manner, which could support it for a while, to say the least.

The old lady saw that Zhang Lingdang had not spoken, afraid that she would think more about her sensitive and fragile age, and the last time the landlord's wife came to talk about family affairs, Zhang Lingdang hid in the small space of the wardrobe and cried all night, and the next day her eyes were swollen and swollen when she went out, and when she came back, she still had a slap mark on her face...... The old lady was in a trance in front of her, and her heart palpitated, was Xiao Yuyan bullied by her classmates a month ago?

"Grandma. Zhang Ling called her.

The old lady relieved herself and looked at her immature and magnificent face in a daze, although she was thinner than her peers, but her facial features were also better than other children's water spirits, Zhang Lingzhong didn't know that her face that outsiders saw was the appearance of the original owner "Liu Yuyan". The old lady said "um", and said hesitantly: "If you don't study, your life can be relaxed, and the pressure on your grandmother's shoulders is not so great, your parents owe so many debts, and grandma has no more years to live in this life, her eyes are closed, and she doesn't know what is going on after her death, you listen to grandma, get married early." ”

Zhang Lingzhong has made up her mind, where is she willing to let others change their minds, "Grandma, let's go out to find a house first." ”

The old lady was stunned, "What are you doing?"

"Moving. Zhang Lingjing let go of her grandmother's hand, walked back to the door of the house, closed the door, and then remembered that she didn't take the key, and asked the old lady with a confused face, "Grandma, do you have a key with you?" Seeing that the key was tied to the old lady's thin wrist by a black rubber band, and there was no need to wait for an answer, Zhang Lingjing stepped forward and led the old lady down the stairs.

When he came back, Zhang Lingdang found that the floor of the rented cheap house was too high, a total of six floors, and their grandparents rented a corner on the top floor, far away from the public balcony and the public toilet, the toilet should go down one floor, the toilet on the fifth and sixth floors was shared, the balcony should be ten steps on the upper half of the floor, and there was no guardrail, the bricks of the stone steps were cracked in a few deep pits, and it was okay to be careful, and it was very dangerous to have bad eyes like the old man.

There are handguards on the side of the stairs downstairs, winding all the way down in circles, and through the arc of the guardrails, you can see five or six people on the first floor chatting about household chores next to the handrails.

"Slow down. Zhang Lingzhong instructed.

"Huh. The old lady agreed, the only hand held Zhang Ling's hand, she laboriously raised her foot, fell down the stairs, and then lifted the other foot, followed to the stairs, six minutes down the steps, forced to walk into a long feeling of half an hour, the old lady's feet were sore, holding her knees, clenching her fists and gently hitting her legs, taking a breath, and continuing to hold Zhang Ling's hand, continue to walk down, "People are old, useless." ”

"Yo, Mrs. Liu. Is my granddaughter okay? My husband just told you everything, right?"

A sharp and mean voice sounded with laughter, "Where in City A can I find such a cheap rent for our family?" Look at the stupid old lady and her watery granddaughter, wearing a foreign yellow knee-length skirt, wearing a gold necklace, lifting the fat wrist with a gold bracelet, the red nails that have just been made, carefully cocked, and patting the bare arm of the male tenant chatting on the side with his short sleeves, "Xiao Xie, is that the case?" You're an agent, tell them how much does the cheapest house in City A cost a month?"

The tenant Xiao Xie smiled, his eyes turned, and he glanced at the old lady and Zhang Lingdang, "I have been an intermediary for three years, and I live here, if there is a cheap one, don't I leave a set for myself first?" Last time I introduced a house to a client, it was the cheapest in the area near City A that I had introduced, and it cost more than 2,300, and I had to pay three for one. If you pay less than one deposit, the landlord will not rent it. ”

The landlord's wife smiled: "It's not, I am an authentic person with my family, and I don't like to take advantage of people too much, so let's rent out less if I can." There are a lot of poor people in this world, so let's do good deeds and accumulate virtue. There is no shortage of that little money at home. ”

The old lady's eyes became timid, and she pulled the hand of the bell, "Xiaoyuyan, let's not look for it, right?" Six thousand yuan is not enough to live for two months, and your parents still owe a lot of debts outside...... If you can pay back a little more, you can pay it back, right?"

Zhang Lingzhong had a ball of anger in his heart, and he didn't have a seizure on his mouth, but just kept a calm face, "Let's go." ”

The old lady hesitated, and glanced at Xiao Xie, the intermediary man in a suit and leather shoes, although he had a gentle smile on his face, there were two disdainful contempt in his eyes, as if to say that two fools actually didn't believe me as a professional real estate agent? The old lady has to have a strong self-esteem, "Let's not go, we don't have so much money to squander." ”

The landlord's wife smiled and said: "Xiao Xie, do you remember the old man I told you last time? You saw it last time, right? He is also friends with my husband, so he is willing to bring a box of bird's nest and a box of imported shark fin. Tsk, if I hadn't married, I'd have looked at him twiceβ€”" he said, giggling coquettishly.

The old lady opened her mouth and wanted to talk to the landlord's wife.

Zhang Lingzhong finally couldn't control his temper, hugged the old lady's waist, hugged the old lady one centimeter from the ground, and walked quickly outside. Leaving the stunned landlord's wife and the agent Xiao Xie, "What a lot of strength?" the landlord's wife said in surprise.

For rent houses in city A, some urban villages will write the list of rental houses on the wall or post them on the wall or signboards. The bustling golden area is basically handed over to the intermediary company to take care of the rental housing, and there are several intermediary companies, and the cheapest house rent in this area is more than 2,300 yuan from the nearest school district house in City A No. 1 Middle School, and it is really the same as the intermediary Xiao Xie said.

The old lady was already discouraged and sat down at the bottom of the stairs to rest.

The sun has set in the west. The orange afterglow was sprinkled all over, a few old locust trees were shading, the gusts of wind blew, mosquitoes began to fly in the air, Zhang Lingjing was silent under the tree for a long time, and finally made a decision, she walked to the nearest intermediary company, and asked the tall, gentle and friendly looking man in his fifties, he was wearing a pink shirt, a black coat draped over the chair, the computer was on the screen, he stood up and poured a glass of water, the phone just rang zero, he picked up the phone, while his eyes fell on Zhang Ling, nodded to her, it was a greeting。 As soon as the phone call to inquire about the housing price of the school district room was answered and hung up, the man turned his eyes to Zhang Ling, who was waiting quietly, "Little sister, do you say?"

Zhang Ling said: "I'm going to see the two-bedroom house for 2,300 yuan." ”

The man's work tag on his chest indicated his name, Zhang Guowei. He smiled gently, his eyes were vicious, and he judged that his grandparents and grandchildren were not rich people just by their clothes and appearance. Zhang Guowei sympathized with them in his heart, so he said step by step: "The contract for this rental house will take at least half a year, plus you need to deposit two to pay one, not counting property fees and management fees, elevator fees, electricity fees, water bills, etc., and after half a year, it will be at least this number." Zhang Guowei pressed the final number on a computer, "18400".

Zhang Lingzhong said calmly: "I know." ”

Zhang Guowei smiled, "Do you want to discuss it with your grandmother at home?"

Zhang Ling said: "I have money." ”

Zhang Guowei's eyes were full of surprise, Zhang Lingzhong was wearing a set of blue and white school uniforms with horizontal stripes, it could be seen that he had been wearing it for a long time, some dirt could not be washed off, the white canvas shoes on his feet were dirty and muddy, with high ponytails, and he was very smart and delicate, but from head to toe there was no expensive item that was slightly worth the price of a 100-yuan bill.

Zhang Guowei confirmed again: "Do you really plan to rent a house?"

Zhang Bell could hear the anger in his voice. Zhang Lingzhong nodded, "I am satisfied, I can give the money on the spot, sign the rental contract, and if the rent for one year can be half cheaper, I can pay it in one lump sum." ”

Zhang Guowei was stunned and smiled, "It is rare to be able to rent more than two thousand two-bedroom and one living room in this area, and the customers I introduced in my hands all need three or four thousand to rent a house in such a good location." ”

Zhang Ling had only one request, she lowered her voice, and pointed to the old lady who was waiting at the bottom of the steps outside: "You tell my grandmother that I cut the rent to 1,000 yuan a month, and the deposit is also a deposit to pay one, don't tell her anything else." ”

Zhang Guowei hesitated for a few seconds, and then confirmed again, "Can you really afford to pay half a year's rent?"

Zhang Lingzhong put his hand in his pocket, and when he reached out from the flat pocket of his coat and school uniform again, he had an extra stack of slightly thicker hundred-yuan bills in his hand. It was she who opened the backpack space, consumed a chance from the "multi-treasure bag" that occupied one square, and took out the local belongings, which could only be 1,000 yuan at a time. Zhang Lingzhong grabbed his hand into his pocket a few more times, and grabbed several times of slightly thicker hundred-yuan bills.

Zhang Guowei's eyes were fluttering, the pockets of the school uniform were flat, could he hide the money so much?

Zhang Ling asked, "Can you take me over to see the house?"

As he spoke, he hid the 10,000 yuan bill in his school uniform pocket, and the school uniform pocket, which was originally bulging with a large bag, flattened it again in the next moment. She used up the storage space of the "treasure bag" once and hid all the ten thousand yuan.

Zhang Guowei blinked, and his brown pupils revealed surprise and consternation: "You know how to do magic, don't you?"
