Chapter 170: Into the Tiger's Den Alone (One Shift, Ask for Tickets, Come On, Come On~)
Lin Zitan stood under the door number 518 and hesitated for a while, then looked at the empty shops in the glass window, and the crowd of people who kept passing by,
Rather than knock on the door and ask about Mike's whereabouts, it would be better to make a phone call to contact the lessor.
If this Frank and Steve are talking about the same person, it would be slightly better to find out Mike's information further, or call first to see if this person is in this building,
If so, then there is a good chance that these two people are the same person, after all, this building is only five floors, and excluding the shops on the first floor, there is at least a quarter of a chance that this black hand D small leader named Frank lives in.
The fluorescent green cardboard said that this person's phone number was 732***5866, Lin Zitan picked up his mobile phone and dialed this person's number, holding the mobile phone in his hand, beating a drum in his heart, a little expectant, and a little nervous.
"Hey, this is Frank, how can I help you?" Lin Zitan was stunned for a moment when he heard the other party's words, how does this attitude not feel like black hand D, right? Although his voice was a little rough, he still had a kind of politeness that should be in the service industry.
"Uh, hello, is your shop downstairs for rent?" Lin Zitan asked deliberately provocatively.
"What, which address?" was a little unkind, and Lin Zitan also heard a little bit of vigilance from it.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm downstairs on 518 Broadway and I see your shop for rent. Lin Zitan gave up English this time and spoke directly in Italian.
"Are you Italian?" the other immediately asked.
"Uh, do you have any rentals here?" Lin Zi asked without answering.
"The first floor of Address 518 Broadway is for rent, what do you want to rent it for?" asked the man named Frank with his tone of voice and patience again, carefully.
"I think this is a clothing store, and I want to sell some small goods, okay? Small goods from China. "Lin Zi is very serious.
"This is okay, the shop is 1,200 feet, and the rent is 12,000. Frank said quickly.
"This rent is no problem, I'm in front of the store now, can I take a look inside now?" Lin Zitan asked tentatively.
"Hmm~ Now, wait a minute, I'll ask someone to go down and open the door for you." As he spoke, Lin Zitan heard the man shouting on the other side of the phone, and then said something, and soon someone agreed.
"What's your name?" asked Frank looking back.
βDanielγ Lin Zitan hurriedly said.
"Okay Daniel, I'll let people go down and open the door now, if we're satisfied, we'll talk about the rest~"
"Okay, thank you so much, I'll make a decision as soon as I can after reading it. Lin Zitan said.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Zitan stood at the door and waited for about five or six minutes, and finally saw a tall and somewhat thin young man walking out of the closed gate of 518.
βDaniel right?β As soon as the young man came out, he looked at Lin Zitan and asked.
"Yes, hello, I'm Daniel. Lin Zitan hurriedly stepped forward and politely stretched out his hand to this person.
The young man reluctantly shook his hand, turned his head and went to open the door of the shop.
By this time, the sky had already darkened, and the entire street was illuminated with colors by street lamps and laser lights from various shops. As soon as the young man opened the door and walked to his right, he turned on the shop's electric light with a bang, and the whole room was as bright as day.
Lin Zitan pretended to be very serious and looked at it, it turned out that the hangers and shoe racks of the store were still there, and there were two fitting rooms and a bathroom that were cleaned up in the innermost, and the staff was written on the bathroom ONLY.
"Is it 1,200 feet here?"
Lin Zitan looked around, turned his head and asked the young man who was standing there impatiently. He found that this young man was not impatient because he saw him, but because he was very impatient with his own life.
"Well, almost, I'll ask Frank." The young man replied.
"What about the rent, do you want to talk to him specifically?" Lin Zitan hid the excitement in his heart and continued to probe.
"The rent can only be negotiated if the shop is satisfied, are you satisfied with this shop?" the young man asked with a serious look at him and indifferently.
"Of course, this size is just right for me, but can you take me to meet Frank?" Lin Zitan then asked.
βγγγ I'll have to go up and ask. The young man looked at Lin Zitan's attitude as if he wanted to rent, and hesitated.
"No problem, I just want to finalize the address of the store as soon as possible today, and if I can negotiate it, I will definitely thank you. Lin Zitan's dress today looks more like a business elite, with a windbreaker on the outside and a gray suit on the inside, taking advantage of him to be a little mature.
Okay, you wait here, I forgot to take my phone, I'll go up and ask. The young man touched the pocket of his jeans, as if he had just remembered that he had come down in such a hurry that he didn't have a phone with him.
"You can call him on my phone, and you don't have to go through the hassle. Lin Zitan hurriedly said.
βγγγ Okay, you call, I'll tell him. The young man didn't seem to expect Lin Zitan to do this, and immediately looked a little embarrassed, but then he was relieved.
Lin Zitan hurriedly dialed the phone he had just dialed again, and answered it after only one ring.
"Hey, how's it going?" asked Frank immediately.
"Wait a minute. After Lin Zitan said that, he covered the topic and handed it to the young man next to him.
"Hey, it's me... The young man whispered Lin Zitan's thoughts in Italian, and then asked Frank if he wanted to come down or let Lin Zitan go up, and after saying something, the young man hung up the phone.
"Let's go, Frank said let's go upstairs and talk. The young man looked at Lin Zitan again, and handed over his mobile phone.
"Okay, I'm sorry to trouble you, thank you very much~" Lin Zitan said politely.
The young man waited for Lin Zitan to go out of the store, quickly locked the door of the store, and when he turned around, he saw Lin Zitan waiting there respectfully, his original impatient expression seemed to loosen a little, and he walked over and opened the door of 518, holding the door and letting Lin Zitan enter.
The stairs are very narrow, perhaps because such a small place on Broadway, where every inch of land is expensive, is also used sparingly, and Lin Zitan visually measured that this corridor can pass through a bed a little one meter wide at most.
At the corner of the staircase on each floor, you can see a window facing the street, which is divided into two glasses, both narrow and narrow, but you can still see the brilliant light coming through the street.
Lin Zitan followed the young man all the way up, until he walked to the top floor, there was a dark door on the right hand, the door was quite wide, it was a double door, it was obvious that the house was not wide but very deep,
Just like the shop downstairs, the door is not big, but it is quite long to walk in.
"Knock~" The young man stopped by the door and knocked lightly twice, and in a short time the door was opened from the inside.
"I've brought the people, you can talk about it yourself~" The young man whispered in Italian to the person who opened the door.
"Hi ~ Hello, I'm Frank." After the young man entered the house, he kept walking inside, leaving a middle-aged foreigner with a relatively kind face, and when he saw Lin Zitan, this person hurriedly stretched out his hand with a smile on his face.
