The rain is getting heavier and heavier.

After getting off the bus, the raindrops the size of beans came on the surface, and people either covered them with bags or ran in a hurry, and only a few people with umbrellas were able to leave without hurrying.

Zhou Qiang and Lin Yue held an umbrella and walked in the direction of the company's store, although the rain is not a big deal, but this feeling of taking the lead makes Zhou Qiang feel very happy.

Lin Yue is very concerned about his appearance and dress, although he was a little unhappy to be cheated by Zhou Qiang for a big meal, but he was able to avoid the rain, and he was secretly lucky in his heart.

The full name of the real estate agency where the two people work is Zhongwei Real Estate Agency Co., Ltd., but only the words 'Zhongwei Real Estate' are written on the plaque on the door of the store, which is located on the east side of Jingxin Community.

At this time, CNGR Real Estate had already opened, and Zhou Qiang and the others walked into the store with an umbrella and saw a young man sitting at the front desk, in his twenties, wearing a pair of white eyes, looking at Si Swenwen.

"Sister Lin, Brother Zhou, early. The young man raised his head and greeted lightly.

"Early. ”

"Good morning. Zhou Qiang and Lin Yue responded.

The man sitting at the front desk is named Li Wenming, who has not been in the store for a long time, and has a student temperament, but he is very diligent and studious.

"Sister Lin, Brother Zhou, you are lucky, you still came with an umbrella, unlike me, I was drenched in the rain as soon as I got off the bus, and I died of discomfort. Seeing the two of them coming in with umbrellas, Li Wenming said with some envy.

"It's a good head, I have to set up an umbrella, and I have to invite someone to eat seafood. Lin Yue muttered in a low voice, and I don't know if Li Wenming heard it, but even if he did, he might not understand what it meant.

Zhou Qiang on the side smiled and said nothing, as the saying goes, he is willing to gamble and lose, if he loses in his bet, Lin Yue will definitely kill himself.

If you don't have a thick skin, don't want to mix in the intermediary industry.

The area of the Zhongwei store is not large, as soon as you enter the door, there is a large open room, with four rows of desks and computers, a small conference room on the right, and the store manager's office at the back.

Zhou Qiang walked to the left side of the last row, there was a fingerprint attendance machine on the table, the shape was somewhat similar to a desk phone, and the index finger was printed on the glass of the collector, and the green screen showed the employee's number, accompanied by a voice prompt: "Thank you." ”

'Thank you' means that the fingerprint is correct and has been logged in, if the fingerprint is incorrect or not recorded, it will be accompanied by a voice prompt of "please press your finger again", so you have to press your finger again until the fingerprint attendance machine prompts 'thank you', and the attendance information is recorded correctly.

After checking in, Zhou Qiang returned to his position, turned on the computer, browsed the latest real estate information, and saw if there was any change in the housing in the community.

Housing is a term in the intermediary industry that refers to the resources of housing rental or sale, in simple terms, houses that can be rented or sold.

There are more than a dozen intermediary companies in Jingxin Community, and there are hundreds of real estate agents, and Zhou Qiang did not go to work for a day yesterday, so there must be houses that have been rented or sold.

After browsing the property information for a while, Zhou Qiang found a new one-bedroom listing, he happened to have a customer who wanted to rent a one-bedroom apartment, and the information of the listing was more appropriate, but unfortunately there were no photos of the house.

Zhou Qiang pondered for a moment, looked at Li Wenming at the front desk, and said, "Wenming, are you busy this morning?"

"It's okay, Brother Zhou, are you okay?" Li Wenming turned his head and asked.

"I have a customer who rents a one-bedroom apartment, and I just found a suitable house, and I want you to install a customer for me, go and see what the house looks like, and take a few photos to show the customer by the way. Zhou Qiang said.

Li Wenming, who is new to the house, doesn't know much about it, and said suspiciously: "Brother Zhou, if you want to see the house, can't you just contact the owner directly? Why do you want me to pretend to be a customer?"

The owner refers to the owner of the property, which is commonly known as the landlord.

"This listing is indicated on the information, and no customer is not allowed to see the property. Zhou Qiang shrugged his shoulders.

"Then you can make an appointment with the customer and go directly to see the house, how convenient it is. Li Wenming said a little reluctantly.

"This client is busy with work, usually looking at the photos first, if he thinks the house is suitable and then come to see the house, if I don't have the photos, I can't make an appointment at all. Zhou Qiang said helplessly, real estate agents are two-ended, owners and customers can't afford to offend, otherwise why take agency fees?

"Brother Zhou, I haven't pretended to be a customer, and I don't look like it, definitely not. Li Wenming hesitated for a moment and excused himself.

Li Wenming has not been in the industry for a long time, and he is not used to many rules in the intermediary industry, especially the deceptive business of pretending to be a customer, one is afraid of being exposed by the owner, and the other is that he does not like this kind of behavior.

"Okay, I'll find someone else. Zhou Qiang didn't say anything more.

Zhou Qiang doesn't know much about Li Wenming, but he just heard someone mention it by chance, Li Wenming's education is very high, it seems that he graduated with a master's degree, and he came here just to exercise, and it is a matter of time before he changes jobs and leaves.

Therefore, Li Wenming is a little unsociable and arrogant, and he has not really integrated into this job.

Lin Yue, who was on the side, was looking in the mirror while touching up her makeup, took a sip of the lipstick she had just put on, and said, "I'm not very busy today, I'll help you pretend to be a customer later." ”

Lin Yue was indeed a little unhappy when she lost the bet, but she didn't bring this emotion to work, the intermediary industry relies on teamwork and helping each other, and it is difficult for one person to make a single order.

Moreover, the broker disguises the customer, which is a common trick in the intermediary industry, either to obtain housing information, or to test the owner's intentions, and Lin Yue has done it before.

"Thank you, Sister Lin. ”

"No thanks, I'll show the client the house in a while, and I have to let you escort you. Lin Yue said.

Brokers take clients to see the house, generally accompanied by two or three people, rarely go alone, otherwise there is an accident in the process of taking the show, a broker will not be able to take care of, snub the customer, and even be taken advantage of by the salesman of other intermediary companies to snatch the customer.

“OK。 Zhou Qiang said.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Li Wenming's face was a little ugly, although he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong, but he had a feeling of being isolated, no matter how high his education was, there were some things that he couldn't learn in books.

"Early. At this moment, a rough voice sounded, and a man rushed into the Zhongwei store.

The man was about thirty years old, of medium height, with a flat head and a round face, with an exposed shirt, crumpled trousers, muddy shoes, and a rain-soaked body, which made him look a little sloppy.

After the sloppy man said hello, he rushed straight to the last row, pressed his fingerprints on the fingerprint punch machine, and after a 'thank you' prompt sounded, the sloppy man relaxed again.

This man's name is Liu Quan, he is an old employee of the company, and his ability is also very strong, but he is a little lazy, often late and early leaves, and goes to work at the same time.

"Tsk, it's exactly 8:59, Liu Quan, you're getting more and more accurate at this point, one more point will be late, and one less point will not show your ability, admire." Lin Yue quipped.

"Yes, it doesn't depend on how many years Brother Liu and I have practiced, you still have to learn something. Liu Quan didn't think it was angry, but smiled proudly.

"Yo, you are Sun Dasheng's seventy-two changes, tailor-made, I can't learn it. Lin Yue said with a smile.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Zhou Qiang's heart moved slightly, this Liu Quan should be the person who competed with him for the position of store manager recorded in the future diary, and now the two are not close, but there is no big contradiction.

According to the diary, the reason why Zhou Qiang and Liu Quan had a conflict was because the current store manager resigned, and the two had a stalemate in order to compete for the position of store manager.

In the end, Zhou Qiang failed, Liu Quan became the store manager and became Zhou Qiang's top boss, and the relationship between the two was already stiff, and it was difficult for Zhou Qiang to ease up.

What was left was only the resentment and helplessness in the diary.
