Chapter 306: Renting a House
"Ah, I'm in a hurry this time, why didn't I bring much money. After Xu Hong woke up from his nightmare in the morning, he only thought about Wen Sisi's safety, and just wanted to get to the capital as soon as possible, and he was not fully prepared at all, and after buying a plane ticket, he only had more than a thousand yuan left on him.
"It seems that the big hotel can't be lived. But where should I live!" Xu Hong stood in the middle of the crowd, a little at a loss for a while.
"Without money, you can't stay in the city center. The center of the capital, which is a place where every inch of land is valuable, and he only has more than 1,000 yuan on him, how can he live in a big hotel in the center of the city, it seems that he can only stay in the suburbs first. ”
There was no way, Xu Hong could only go to the outskirts of the capital. Because there will be some ordinary houses in the suburbs, and there may be cheap houses for rent.
"Let's go to the suburbs!"
Xu Hong finally made such a decision.
So he started to see on the stop sign at the bus stop that the bus was going to the suburbs.
At this time, a bus happened to come. There is a sign on it that goes to Baiwang Mountain.
"It's to the mountains, it's definitely to the suburbs. ”
Xu Hong only looked at the sign and got in the car. Because now for him, as long as he can go to the suburbs, he doesn't care where he goes.
With the flow of people, Xu Hong also squeezed into the car with a gift box. Finding an empty spot, he sat down.
The bus stopped at this stop for a while, and then slowly started again.
There were all sorts of people on the bus, from fashionably dressed urban beauties to ordinary citizens, and a few migrant workers in dusty old camouflage uniforms.
These migrant workers came up late, and after they came up, there were no seats, so they had to stand by Xu Hong's side.
One of them, a tall and thin young migrant worker, glanced at Xu Hong. Then stood by his side.
Xu Hong glanced at the young migrant worker vigilantly, and thought, "He can't be a thief!" Thinking of this, Xu Hong couldn't help but stuff his hand into his coat pocket and hold the more than 1,000 yuan tightly.
"Hey, I really didn't expect that I, a great painter, would fall to such a point, more than a thousand yuan, which made me uneasy. I think one of my paintings would be worth tens of millions!"
Thinking of these things, Xu Hong couldn't help but smile bitterly. I feel that I am purely looking for trouble, and I want to pursue that ethereal love with a good life.
"Little brother, where are you going to get off the bus? ”
Just when Xu Hong felt that the migrant worker next to him might be a thief, they asked him first.
"Let's get to the terminal!" Xu Hong didn't know how to answer for a while, so he could only vaguely say that he was going to sit at the terminal.
"That's it, then forget it. "It seems that the migrant workers want to sit in Xu Hong's seat!
The car continued to move forward, Xu Hong looked at the high-rise buildings on the side of the road, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart.
With the reduction of high-rise buildings outside the window, the car has reached the suburban boundary. What slowly appeared in Xu Hong's eyes was not in high-rise buildings, but in low-rise houses, as well as mountains in the distance.
"Where am I going?
Xu Hong looked at the green mountains and green waters outside the window, and felt that he didn't feel like he had come to the capital for love. It seems to be a tourist to the capital.
"The scenery here is really good, and if you have time, you can really travel here. Xu Hong looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window and was a little happy in his heart.
The bus drove forward for a while, then disembarked from the main road and turned onto a side road.
It is a concrete road that leads to a village at the foot of the mountain. It's much narrower than the original road, and there are some potholes on it, so it seems that this road is also some years old.
The tall poplar trees on both sides of the road are also a hug thick, and it seems that they may have been planted during the construction of the road. It seems that it has been at least a few decades.
The bus followed the path and kept going. After another kilometer or so, we reached the foot of the mountain. There's an open space here, which is the terminus of this bus.
The bus entered the stop, and after it stopped, all the passengers also got off.
Xu Hong also came down with the other passengers. Among them, there was also a migrant worker who wanted to sit in Xu Hong's seat just now, and he also got off the bus with other passengers.
As soon as everyone got out of the car, they all walked off into the distance.
Because everyone has a purpose. There is a village near here, which may be their home.
Xu Hong came out of the bus stop, raised his eyes, and felt a little surprised.
Because he saw that at the foot of the mountain not far away, there was an upscale villa estate. It's not very big, but the villas inside are very luxuriously built. Compared to some ordinary cottages in the vicinity, it is almost like a 'heavenly palace'.
"Damn, there's even a fancy villa here. It seems that rich people will enjoy it, and they are not willing to stay in the city center, and they are willing to live in this green mountain and green water. ”
Xu Hong looked at the villa manor in front of him, and sighed a little in his heart. I think that if I stay in Tiannan City all the time, with my fame and strength, I can live in such a luxurious villa, and I can also let my family live in such a high-end villa manor.
And for the sake of a woman like Wen Sisi, he gave up everything he could have and came to this remote mountain village on the outskirts of Beijing, I really don't know if I am enchanted.
"Hey, forget it, the past is over, since you have chosen this path, let's be brave and break through!"
Xu Hong knew that since he had taken this step, there was no need to go back. He's not one to regret casually. 'There was no turning back from the bow', and he decided to keep going.
Following a concrete road, Xu Hong walked towards a nearby village. He knew that he had to rent a private house as soon as possible, and no matter what, he had to have a place to live first. This is the most important thing in front of us, as for the dream, it will be after I have solved the problem of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
To get to the village, you have to walk through the gate of the villa estate.
When Xu Hong walked to the door of the manor, he couldn't help but glance inside curiously.
Just this glance made him suddenly shocked.
Because he seemed to see a beautiful figure dangling at the door of a high-end villa, and then went in. And this beautiful figure makes him look so familiar.
"Is it Wen Sisi! Is it that she lives in that high-end villa!"
Xu Hong felt that the beautiful figure he saw just now was very similar to Wen Sisi.
"No, this must be an illusion, how is it possible that there is such a coincidental thing, I came to this place casually, and this place happens to be a place where Wen Sisi stays. The capital is so big, can I really see Wen Sisi!"
After Xu Hong felt that the figure was Wen Sisi, he immediately shook his head again, feeling that he was sick. I must have hallucinated just now, and I thought other women were Wen Sisi.
After all, this is an upscale villa estate, and it is normal to see some beautiful women in it.
"Otherwise, just think of her as Wen Sisi! In this way, I have the motivation to struggle!"
Although Xu Hong was not sure that he had seen Wen Sisi just now. But thinking that there was a woman here who looked about the same as Wen Sisi, he already felt full of strength. The frustration I had felt before was now gone.
"Wen Sisi is right there for me, and I'm going to fight for her. ”
I don't know what's going on, Xu Hong suddenly became excited. He took his salute and strode towards the nearby village.
It is a small village built on the hillside. There are no straight streets. Each family built a low-rise courtyard house according to the realistic topography.
Xu Hong came to a street with a gift box, and when he looked around, he saw that many villagers had advertisements for rent on the doors of their houses.
It seems that with the economic development of the capital, this small village has also been stained.
Many migrant workers come here to rent houses, and these villagers can support themselves with rent, even if they don't do anything.
Xu Hong pulled the gift box and walked around the village for a while. He found a family with a relatively good house.
This one looks like a newly built house, although it is also a low small tiled house, and there are some white tiles pasted on the outside of the wall, making this one seem to be much more 'high-end' compared to the old tiled house next to it.
At the entrance of this house, there is also an advertisement for a rental house. It has the landlord's phone number on it.
What does Xu Hong say, he was also a great painter before, and he can be regarded as a person with status. Even now in the capital, he is nothing. I don't want to be too wronged myself, no matter what, I have to find a clean house. It is best to live only in your own house and not have other migrant workers.
"Alright, that's it. ”
Xu Hong decided to live in this family. He feels that this family's house may be more expensive, and some migrant workers are afraid that they can't afford to live in it!
Taking out his mobile phone, Xu Hong called the landlord of this family.
"Hey, big sister, do you have a house for rent?" Xu Hong heard the voice of a woman in her thirties on the phone.
"There's a smaller one, do you want to rent it? The landlord's eldest sister politely asked Xu Hong on the phone.
"Okay, let me see!" Xu Hong hadn't seen the situation inside the house yet, so of course he couldn't agree immediately. Don't this house is just decorated on the outside, but not very good inside, so I still don't want to live in it.
"Okay, come in!" the landlord said politely, then came out of the house and opened the door for Xu Hong.
Xu Hong walked in, feeling that the inside was quite good, with a small yard and a small garden.
Standing in front of Xu Hong was a woman in her thirties, who looked okay and dressed quite fashionably. It was completely unexpected by Xu Hong, originally, he thought that in such a village, there must be some aunt-level women.
But the woman in front of her is not lost to the woman in the city at all. It seems that he usually pays great attention to maintenance, and he still wears light makeup on his face. Wearing a pink dress, she looks mature and attractive.
"Young man, it seems that you don't look like a migrant worker! Are you a college student who came to the capital to develop?" Xu Hong was looking at the landlord at the same time, and the people were also looking at him.
"Yes, yes! I am a graduate of a local art academy, and I want to come to Beijing to see if I can encounter some opportunities. ”
Xu Hong saw that he was not an ordinary migrant worker, so he simply told his true identity.
"Oh, is it a painter!" The landlord was a little surprised when she heard Xu Hong's words. If I were a painter, I wouldn't be in a hotel. Xu Hong is reluctant to admit that he is a painter. After all, there were painters who went to the suburbs to rent houses.
"That is a painter who has not yet become famous, if you look at your talent, you will definitely become a great painter in the future. ”
The landlord's eldest sister seems to be a woman who can speak well, and as soon as she heard Xu Hong's kind words, she immediately said a nice word.
"Thank you, I hope I can become a real painter. Xu Hong glanced at the tall, mature and attractive woman beside him.
"Come, look at your house! There are two, the big one has been rented out, and now there is a small one. ”
The landlord's eldest sister turned around and walked towards the east house as she spoke. There are two houses in the East House. One of them is larger and looks like it's been rented out. There are clothes to dry at the door. It's just that these clothes are a little shabby, and they look like the clothes of migrant workers.
Xu Hong followed the landlord to the front of the small room. The door was open. The landlady twisted the handle and went into the room.
Xu Hui smelled the good smell of the landlord's eldest sister and also entered the room.
It is a house of only about ten square meters. Inside there is a wooden board bed and a wooden table. And a chair. There is nothing else to do.
Although the furnishings are relatively simple, the floor inside is paved with tiles, and the walls are snow-white, without a trace of dust. The wooden bed, table and chairs are not high-end, but they are all brand new. It seems that it is for the renters.
Xu Hong looked around and felt good. In such a village, it is not bad to be able to live in such a house.
"How's it going, young man, do you want to rent it? The landlord looked at Xu Hong beside her and asked. "It's ok, how much a month. Xu Hong decided to stay, but he also had to ask the price, he didn't have much money on him, don't be too expensive, he couldn't afford to live.
"Two hundred yuan a month, water and electricity bills are paid separately, you see how it goes. "The landlord said the price of renting.
"Yes, that's it! I'm going to stay here. ”
Such a price is indeed unexpected by Xu Hong, and he also thinks that the landlord's eldest sister This house is much better than other private houses, and the price will definitely be much more expensive! )
