On the twelfth day of the first month, the school opened.

Wang Ziyan rushed to Liangcheng on the ninth day of the first month, and when he left, he stuffed 100 yuan for each of his two sisters, which was pocket money for the two sisters.

Although my parents give a lot, it should not be enough for girls, such as the headband hairpin and the like, although it is not expensive, but you must know that these things are lost if you are not careful, and you have to buy them at any time.

said goodbye to his two younger sisters, said goodbye to his mother, and set off with his eldest sister on a bicycle.

If he wants to go back to Liangcheng, he has to take a car, and although he is not tired of walking, it is also more time-consuming. Take the eldest sister by bicycle, and then the eldest sister will ride the bicycle back later.

The reason why Wang Ziyan came to the school early was because he didn't plan to live on campus this year and wanted to rent a house off campus.

The dormitory of No. 1 Middle School is still converted from an old teaching building, and the two rows of 21 double-layer iron frame beds are directly connected by screws. A dormitory can sleep 42 people, only beds, no desks, cabinets or anything like that.

There is one dormitory per class, and of course there is no mixed living for men and women, so the empty beds are full of things.

Wang Ziyan, who lived in the dormitory for a period of time last semester, didn't know how he had endured this environment before, and that kind of smell made him feel excited when he thought about it.

The smell of pickles, salt beans, and all kinds of spoiled foods, plus the smell of sweat, oily head, and feet.

You must know that people like Wang Ziyan, who were used to living in his previous life, are more or less clean. The people in the dormitory who don't change their underwear for a week, their socks for a week, or even take a shower for a month make him creepy when he thinks about it. Thinking about how he came over in his previous life, he couldn't help but feel creepy.

Especially when Wang Ziyan was in a daze during the exam, he saw with his own eyes that a fat lice crawled out of the hair of the young man sitting in front of him, burrowed into the oily neckline, and then his body was itching for a whole week.

There was no money in his hand before, and Wang Ziyan had no choice but to live in the dormitory, since he had some money on hand, there was no need to wronged himself anymore.

found a hotel in the commercial street behind the school and booked a room, then called Li Hu, and agreed to meet in the evening, and he went out with his wallet.

He had to look for a house, and he remembered seeing an agent on the side of the road, but he forgot exactly where he saw it.

Because many parents of high school students who are far away will choose to accompany them during this critical period of life, the intermediary industry that has just emerged in the south has also appeared early in Liangcheng, after all, many people are not slow to control business opportunities.

It's just that the real estate agencies in Liangcheng are relatively small and relatively few in these years, and there is no scale of large chain real estate agents everywhere in 20 years, after all, the market is still too small to accommodate the survival of this kind of super giant crocodile.

Wang Ziyan followed the impression in his memory and searched the street for a long time before he found an intermediary not far from the school.

The façade is a remodeled house along the street, with the residents in the back and the family home of the Electricity Bureau in the back. It may be because of the need for those parents to live, so there will be intermediaries here.

Pushing the door in, the first thing that caught my eye was a chubby middle-aged uncle in his 40s sitting behind a shabby desk, holding a hairy novel in his hand and reading it with relish, without even looking up when someone came in.

He leaned over and took a look, it was Master Gu Long's "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword".

When the uncle saw someone approaching, he raised his eyelids and looked him up and down, then lowered his eyelids again, and asked casually, "Is there something wrong?"

Wang Ziyan looked left and right at the humble little storefront, and there were several pieces of paper pasted on the walls on both sides, on which some rental information of the house was written.

While looking at the information, he said to the uncle: "Rent a house, preferably a community house, and it is best to have decoration." ”

As soon as the uncle heard what he said, he suddenly became interested, stuck the book on the table, sat up straight and looked at him, and asked, "Really rent a house?"

Wang Ziyan looked at him in surprise, and said in a puzzled tone: "What? Isn't it okay to come to tease you? I'm not so idle."

The uncle sneered, quickly got up and said to him: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you sit down first, let's talk about the requirements slowly." ”

Wang Ziyan sat down on the wooden sofa on the side, looked at the uncle who was busy pouring water for him, and said with a smile: "I want to rent a house near No. 1 Middle School and live by myself." Therefore, the area should not be too large, the residential community can be, it should be finely decorated, the furniture and appliances should be complete, it should be able to cook, and the price is negotiable. ”

The boss showed a bright smile on his pleated fat face, put the water in front of Wang Ziyan, and while sitting back at the back of his work, he took out a notebook from a drawer and placed it on the table.

Flipping through the notebook, the boss said while checking it: "Most of the houses in this neighborhood are residential, but the houses are basically undecorated, and they are all one by one." There is a house on Big Elm Street, a well-decorated two-bedroom and one-living room, 80 square meters, located on the fourth floor, the price is not cheap, 50 yuan a month. Behind the city government at the east end of Jiefang Road, there is a house in the family courtyard of the power supply bureau, with a square of 110 three bedrooms and one living room, finely decorated, complete furniture and household appliances, and the rent is 80 yuan a month. ”

Big Elm Street is the most developed area of Liangcheng, located in the west of the city, a famous small commodity wholesale street, but most of the shops are selling fishing gear.

That's what the people who grew up here have always called. In fact, in the past, Big Elm Street was synonymous with a good city. Once upon a time, Liangcheng Railway Station has been called the Great Elm Station for seventy or eighty years. It wasn't until 1992 that Liangcheng was withdrawn from the county and established as a city, which was changed, and now few people call it that.

Big Elm Street has a long history, originated in the Kangqian period, flourished in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, and is a well-known material distribution center.

The family community of the Electric Power Bureau, which should now be called the family home of the Electric Power Bureau, is a house about 90 years old, which belongs to the fund-raising construction. The houses are all six-story small buildings, a total of about a dozen houses, the layout is not large, only two bedrooms and three bedrooms. He has been to this community before, and the overall greenery is very good, the spacing between buildings is large, and the residents on the ground floor have a small garden.

The family courtyard of the power supply bureau is close to a middle school, there is only a wall in the middle, the main gate of the community is the south gate, the north of the community is Jiefang Road, the east of the community is also a commercial street, and the south of the community is across the road is the Municipal People's Hospital.

The gate of the community is more than 400 meters away from the south gate of the city, that is, the back door, of course, this is a straight-line distance, and it is necessary to detour a short distance to reach the city of the first middle school, because the south gate of the city is the nearest Jiefang Road in the north of the community, and the road along the road is a slip door building, which isolates the community from the Jiefang Road.

Wang Ziyan thought for a while and asked: "Big Elm Street is a little far away, the family community of the Power Supply Bureau, is it really complete with household appliances and furniture?"

The boss nodded and returned: "Their family has just been transferred to Zhuolu, and the house is empty, and the owner plans to rent it out." This house was built with a pool of funds and everything inside is fully furnished and ready to move in. ”

Wang Ziyan took a sip of hot water, nodded and said, "Then go and have a look, if you can, settle it today." ”

The boss nodded hurriedly, took out a key from the drawer, stood up and said with a smile: "Then let's go now, the community is behind, not far from here, let's go on foot." “

Wang Ziyan readily agreed, stood up and walked out of the door first, and the boss didn't even lock the door, and took Wang Ziyan to the east along the street.

While the two of them were walking, the boss introduced him to the situation of the house.

This house is located in the innermost 6 buildings of the family community of the power supply bureau, close to the fence of the first middle school, and the first floor of the second unit. In other words, this house is the closest house to the main entrance of No. 1 Middle School.

The boss said that the community was opened a back door on the fence, and the exit was on the liberation road at the entrance of No. 1 Middle School, which was about less than 200 meters away from the main gate of No. 1 Middle School.

The two of them talked and laughed, and soon they arrived at the house, the boss took out the key and opened the door, and then took Wang Ziyan into the house.

This is a three-bedroom apartment with an area of about 100 square meters, and the decoration will take no more than two years.

Those who have the opportunity to be transferred to Zhuolu to serve are generally not too low, and the leaders who can be assigned to such a big house are probably either the director or the deputy director.

A south-facing master bedroom with a bathroom in the westernmost part of the room, a living room of about 20 square meters in the middle, and a second bedroom of about 20 square meters in the easternmost area. In addition, there is a study of about 10 square meters opposite the master bedroom, a master bathroom of about 5 square meters opposite the second bedroom, and a storage room of about 5 square meters and a kitchen of about 8 square meters on the north balcony.

The living room is connected to the small garden outside, about 40 square meters, by a balcony of about 6 square meters, which is paved with wooden planks and has a small stone table. The small garden was covered with wooden floors and surrounded by a half-man-high holly bush, which was still verdant even though it was still cold. From the outside, the holly is a tall broad-leaved sycamore, its bare branches occasionally swaying slightly in the wind.

The master bedroom and the second bedroom both have a 180 cm bed, the master bedroom is a modular wardrobe, and the second bedroom also has a wall cabinet that occupies an entire wall. In the living room, there is a three-door Haier refrigerator, a 29-inch flat-screen color TV, a cabinet air conditioner, a circle of fabric sofas and a coffee table against the east wall.

The decoration style is very good, although in Wang Ziyan's opinion, the lighting is still a little worse, but at present, it is already good.

Wang Ziyan is very satisfied with the house, this kind of decoration is already very close to his aesthetic point of view, and it is a bit too much to ask for more. So after he carefully checked the water and electricity, he decided to rent this set on the spot.

When the boss heard that he was willing to settle down, he picked up the phone in the living room and called out, and soon called an old man in his sixties.

Wang Ziyan was afraid of trouble, so he directly signed the contract on the spot, paid a year's rent, and paid a deposit of 200 yuan, and got the key.

agreed with the old man that Wang Ziyan would clean up the things in the house today, and tomorrow the old man would bring someone to take away the things that Wang Ziyan didn't want.

After sending the old man and the intermediary boss away, Wang Ziyan began to check room by room, and packed up all the things that the original owner had not taken away.

The original owner has actually taken away everything he can take away, more of the kitchen and bathroom, as well as some daily trivial things. After cleaning the pots and pans and toiletries, I found a few cardboard boxes and put them in the living room, and then started cleaning.

I was busy until it was dark, and then I got everything done and cleaned up, and then I went out and went back to the hotel to take a shower and change clothes.

Early the next morning, Wang Ziyan ran to the family courtyard of the power supply bureau again, and after the old man pulled all the things away, he began to count what to buy from room to room with a notebook.

I felt that the statistics were almost over, and I looked at it that there should be no missing anything, so I went to Hualian Supermarket to buy daily necessities, pots and pans and some high-grade clothes and shoes and sent them over.

Wang Ziyan moved in that afternoon, along with a bunch of miscellaneous books.

These books cover everything from history, astronomy and geography, but they don't have the romance novels or martial arts novels that are more popular now.

In the evening, Wang Ziyan invited Hu Jianguo and Liu Fei to find a restaurant for a meal, and he was going to start school the next day.
