Volume 1: A Hundred Years of Love Chapter 20: Heavy on the mind

When Wang Shiyi saw the landlord of the ten-yuan store, holding a string of keys to the rental house, he walked upstairs, so he took his backpack and followed the landlord with the cunning brother, and climbed towards the third floor.

Along the way, the large bunch of keys in the landlord's hand clanged, and from time to time there was a crisp sound of metal crashing, which sounded a little frightening in the dark and cramped corridor.

The sound reminds people of sword fighting, of fighting.

A wave of insecurity ensued me immediately.

On the third floor, Wang Shiyi looked into the corridor, there were about twenty houses on both sides, and the light outside could only shine in from the end of the corridor, and in broad daylight, the corridor looked very dark, and the air was mixed with a musty smell, which made Wang Shiyi can't help but sneeze.

The landlord walked a distance inside, stopped in the middle of the corridor, because of the bad light, he took the set of keys in front of his eyes several times, and finally found it, so he caught it firmly with two fingers, carefully opened the door with the key, pushed it with his hand, and said: "You two look at how this room is, the house is easy to rent for ten yuan a night, and only this one is left." ”

What? There's only one room left?" the cunning brother looked up suddenly.

On weekdays, there are many small couples who open rooms, and single rooms are already rare, let alone in the first month?

Every year in the first month of the year, people who come out to work gather to fill the temporary rental houses of the peasant houses.

Thankfully, it came at the right time.

Wang Shiyi put down his backpack and walked towards the room, and immediately smelled a peculiar smell, which exuded a faint musty smell, and maybe a little fishy, and his forehead couldn't help but wrinkle.

Oh my God, is this Shenzhen?

Everyone is not telling the legend of how towering the buildings in Shenzhen are, how modern the facilities of the rooms are, and how the rental houses here are not as good as the collective dormitories of Chung Cheng Middle School.

When he looked closely, he saw that there was a nine-hundred-centimeter-wide bed inside, and there were several pale yellow areas on the sheets that were no longer white, and there was a broken table next to it.

In such a narrow place, it's not convenient to turn around!

The cunning brother put down the travel bag, and boldly sat down on the only stool in it, and a surprising scene happened, the stool was overwhelmed, and with a "click", it actually spread out the shelf, and the cunning brother was caught off guard, and fell on the cold ground with his butt.

Seeing this, the landlord immediately walked over, carefully helped the cunning brother up, and said: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it should be that the last tenant broke the stool, and when I checked out, I didn't notice, if you rent, I will move a good stool downstairs to you." ”

"It doesn't matter. Seeing the sincerity of the boss's face, the cunning brother also stood up, and patted the dust on his ass with his hand.

"You're not hurt, are you? The landlord asked with concern.

"No, your stool is too unstable, I'll look at your bed, I won't sit on it and fall down. The cunning brother said as he sat down on the bed, quack, only to hear a slight sound, and the bed was quite solid.

"That's the room, you think about it, see if you want to rent, a single room for ten yuan, there is only this one left, if you don't rent, someone will rent it soon, a single room for ten yuan, it's easy to rent here for me." "The host was on the last minute and went straight to the point.

"When we come out to work, we'll just settle down and live here, and the rental houses in the neighborhood are pretty much the same. Brother Cunning had already noticed Wang Shiyi's expression.

He has been out to work for several years, knowing that it is not so easy for male workers here to find a job, Wang Shiyi came out to look for a job for the first time, if he does not find it for a period of time, the daily expenses of eating, drinking and Lazar cannot be less, and the pressure is very high, everything must be simple.

"Here?" Wang Shiyi couldn't believe it, the cunning brother was a tasteful person in his eyes, how could he look at such a dilapidated rental house?

"Yes! Wang Shiyi, when you come out to work, you still want to play handsome guys? It's no better to endure hardships outside than at home!" The cunning brother shook his lush hair, he was still so handsome.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, the luggage is all on my back, and I will toss it if I go down. Wang Shiyi thought about it, when he went out, he must be prepared to endure hardships, and after he finished speaking, he put down his travel bag.

"Boss, we are renting the house, but you still change the bed for this sheet. Cunning Brother pointed to the yellow "map" above.

Wang Shiyi followed his finger and saw that the pattern looked like an island country, and the stars below were like the islands under its jurisdiction.

"I'm sorry, I'll get you a new one. The landlord smiled and said that if someone does business with him, he will always be a happy person.

"Landlord, give me the key, I'll go down with you and get a receipt, and I'll give you the money." Seeing that Wang Shiyi did not resist the ten-dollar shop, the cunning brother was relaxed, even if he fell off the stool just now.

In the first month, being able to rent a temporary house for ten yuan is also like winning the lottery, which is rare!

After saying that, the cunning brother followed the landlord downstairs.

After tossing and turning in the car for a day, Wang Shiyi felt that he was also tired, so he sat on the bed.

Before that, he had always heard people talk about part-time jobs, and he thought that part-time jobs were incomparably beautiful, even more pleasant than sitting in a government office and blowing air conditioners.

But when he sat on the bed in this Shenzhen rental house, everything was like a glass that had been hit, and it shattered with a "bang".

Saying that part-time work is an easy thing to make money, saying that Shenzhen is full of gold, and saying that Shenzhen is full of luxury houses, it is all a lie and a lie!

Blowing the part-time job is the same as being a landlord, and he Wang Eleven can be regarded as obedient.

After a while, the landlord walked in with a new sheet, panting.

The cunning brother carried a solid wooden stool, also panting, and walked in with difficulty, the car was already enough to toss, and it was also tossed up and down the stairs.

"Ten yuan, no profit, turn off the lights early at night!" The landlord advised.

"Okay!" The cunning brother agreed.

"Be safe, don't boil water too hot, if you need hot water, come downstairs to me. The landlord continued.

"Don't worry!" Cunning agreed.

After the landlord left, he laid out a new sheet, and the two sat on the bed, which had a brown mat, and it was better to sit on it than a cold bench, and the cunning brother handed Wang Shiyi a cigarette and said, "We have finally found a place to stay, come, let's smoke a cigarette." ”

He felt like he had found an oasis in the desert, and his eyes radiated with joy.

Wang Shiyi took the cigarette and sighed: "After taking the train for one night, I'm really tired now." ”

The two of them then swallowed the smoke in the small house, and soon the room was filled with the smell of tobacco, in this fragrance, the two of them could not feel the smell of damp mold just now, and naturally, their mood also became better.

"Wang Shiyi, part-time work is to come out to earn money, not to enjoy, you have to be prepared. Behind a burst of cigarettes, the cunning brother said to Wang Shiyi in the tone of a passer-by, he had already sensed Wang Shiyi's sense of loss.

He must be a wake-up call!

"I've already thought about it, don't worry, going out can't be compared with being at home. Wang Shiyi said.

"When looking for a job in Shenzhen, it is easy to find female workers, but it is more difficult for male workers. After taking a puff of his cigarette, the cunning brother said faintly, in a few days, their factory will be open, and they can't leave the old classmate alone in the rental house.

"It's always okay to move bricks at the construction site!" Wang Shiyi is very realistic, since he has come out, he must stick to it no matter how he says, at least he must go back for the New Year.

"We are an American-funded electronics factory, with air conditioning and a good working environment, see if we can help you introduce you to our factory, moving bricks, that is not a human job. The cunning brother was preoccupied and spit out smoke rings leisurely.

"If only I could get into your factory. Wang Shiyi said with emotion.

"Look at the evening, I'll find my old squad leader, invite him to dinner in the evening, and ask if I can help you and get you in. When the cunning brother said this, he obviously lacked confidence.

Wang Shiyi listened to the tone of the cunning brother's words, and felt that it was not easy to come to Shenzhen to find a job, and a feeling of loneliness and helplessness unconsciously hit his heart, and those beautiful ideas became very distant in an instant, he spit smoke rings into the air with a heavy heart, and quietly watched those smoke rings slowly grow larger, gradually becoming blurred, until they drifted into an uncertain distance.
