Chapter 12: Deal, Rent a Mansion!
Under the scorching sun, Lin Chen walked quickly on a tree-lined road outside the south gate of the Nanling campus.
Not long ago, he had just been discharged from the school hospital.
Then, I went to the Lanzhou ramen restaurant at the school gate and ate a big bowl of beef ramen.
At the moment, there is no big problem.
Only the scars on his arms seemed to remind him that he was still a sick person.
"Nanyuan Apartment!"
"This is a commercial and residential community, no wonder it's so cheap, but the area is big enough!"
Lin Chen followed the address of the small advertisement on the campus and came to a building of about 20 floors.
"Ms. Lin!"
"I'm already downstairs, please open the curfew ....."
Lin Chen took out the slightly worn waveguide mobile phone and made a call on the small advertisement.
"Okay, you can go straight to the 17th floor!"
"My room number is 17-3!" said a woman in her forties and fifties on the other end of the line.
Immediately, the staircase access opens.
"It's a nice place to live!"
"It seems that there are some small businesses working in it too!"
Lin Chen saw at the elevator entrance that there were some enterprise signs.
These businesses, mostly small businesses, work in such commercial and residential apartments.
The elevator was also very comfortable and soon came to the 17th floor.
Bell!
Lin Chen had just pressed the doorbell of 17-3, and there was already the sound of hurried footsteps inside.
"It's coming!"
"Don't worry, I'm cleaning up my room......"
The door opened, and a middle-aged woman in her forties and fifties had just put down her mop and dustpan.
You could tell she had just cleaned the room.
"Young man!"
"Please come in, no shoe covers. The middle-aged woman said with a smile.
"Thank you!"
"This room is still relatively new, you should have just vacated it!"
Lin Chen asked after a general glance at the living room.
The overall decoration of this room is new, and the people who live in it are also very concerned, and the overall feeling is good.
"Yes, I bought this place three years ago for my child's high school education!"
"Look at these furniture, we have only bought them for a few years, and they are all new!"
The middle-aged woman said with a smile.
"Oh!
"Your child should be studying for the provincial experiment, right?" Lin Chen said with a smile.
He knew that the Nanling Campus was very close to the Northern Provincial Experimental Middle School, which was also a famous school in Spring City.
"Well, the girl is quite competitive!"
"I was admitted to Beijing University this year, and she is going to report to Beijing University soon, and we also want to rent out this room and go back to the car factory to live!"
The middle-aged woman said with a smile, a hint of pride on her face.
Kyoto University!
With the same name as Qing University, it has always been the most coveted university in the hearts of many Chinese people.
In fact, according to Lin Chen's scores, he can barely be admitted to Beijing University, but unfortunately he can't choose his favorite major.
The score of the Mechanical College of Qingdao University was too high, and in order to pursue his dream, he chose Northern University in Spring City.
"Congratulations!"
"It's really enviable that a child can be admitted to Beijing University!" Lin Chen said.
Hearing Lin Chen's words, the middle-aged woman was also very happy.
"Young man!"
"You should be a freshman at Northern University, right?, what kind of major are you studying?" the middle-aged woman asked as she looked at Lin Chen.
"Well, I'm a freshman this year!"
"Study in the body department of the Automobile Academy!" Lin Chen nodded.
"Oh?
"The score of the School of Automotive of Northern University is also very high, although the body department is not as good as vehicle engineering, the employment is also very good!
The middle-aged woman said with a smile.
In the eyes of Chuncheng people, when it comes to Northern University, the first thing that comes to mind is law and automobiles.
When it comes to automotive colleges, the first thing that comes to mind is vehicle engineering. As for the bodywork, it is always slightly looked down upon.
Lin Chen didn't say anything, but walked around the various rooms.
"Can I take a look upstairs?"
Lin Chen pointed to the stairs and said.
Only then did he notice that the house was actually a split level.
No wonder the small advertisement at that time said that the area was 260 square meters.
"No problem!"
"Look at it!"
The middle-aged woman smiled and nodded, and led Lin Chen down the wooden staircase to the second floor.
There is also a small living room on the second floor, with only a few pots of green plants, which is slightly cramped.
However, it is good that there are three rooms on the second floor.
"How?"
"Satisfied, right?"
"The biggest advantage of our house is that it has a lot of space!"
"There is a living room and two rooms below, and three bedrooms above, you can get a study, a gym, and a bedroom, anyway, you can arrange it however!" the middle-aged woman introduced very proudly.
"I'm going to start a company!"
"For office use here!" Lin Chen said.
"Start a company?"
Hearing Lin Chen's words, the middle-aged woman couldn't help but show a touch of surprise on her face.
Lin Chen just said that he had just entered the school as a freshman.
At the same age as her child, she wants to start a company?
"Eh! How about starting a company......"
"Then the price may be a little higher! Three thousand is not enough!" the middle-aged woman thought for a moment, and her attitude suddenly changed.
Hearing her words, Lin Chen didn't say anything.
He continued to look at the room, then glanced into the distance from the second floor.
The view here is very open.
At a glance, you can see the entire Nanling campus, and even the Northern Normal University, which is separated from the Nanling campus by a wall.
"Well, it's three thousand!"
"I don't like to bargain, if you don't want to rent, I can naturally go find another home!"
Lin Chen smiled faintly, his face showing a determination like iron.
"Young man!"
"You're going to start a company, I know how you got banned from my house? Three thousand is definitely impossible!"
The middle-aged woman's face also showed a slight hint of displeasure.
"It's your business to rent or not!"
"I just said, three thousand is my upper limit! Besides, if you think you can rent it to someone else at this price, you can rent it!"
Lin Chen said resolutely.
He is well aware that this is 2004!
Not 2019, if in 2019, someone would rent without hesitation.
But in 2004, who would rent a big house with five rooms?
After speaking, Lin Chen slowly walked down from the second floor very decisively.
At this moment, the middle-aged woman panicked.
She didn't seem to expect that this boy, who looked to be only eighteen or nineteen years old, would be so resolute.
"Okay!"
"Three thousand is three thousand, I'm not so stingy that I care!"
At the moment when Lin Chen walked to the door, the middle-aged woman's voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Okay, I've brought the contract template!"
"You can take a look!" Lin Chen stopped and took out the contract in duplicate from his backpack.
The contract already contains the terms and conditions for the assistance required to start a business, as well as the requirement to rent for at least four years.
Soon, after checking the water and electricity, signing the contract, and paying the rent of one and paying three, Lin Chen finally got the key to the room.
"Start a business!"
"From this moment, it officially begins!"
Overlooking the Nanling Campus in front of him, Lin Chen's eyes were full of confidence.
