Chapter 184: Rent Increases

Jiang You took Zhou Liang into the bearded restaurant next to the community, and after 8 o'clock, the speed of turning over the table became faster.

After sitting down, Jiang You asked while flipping through the menu, "What did Boss Li say?" ”

Zhou Liang glanced at his phone, "He said he was almost there." ”

"Does he drive himself? Then don't order alcohol. Jiang You picked up the pen and wrote quickly on the ordering paper.

"Just eat whatever you want," Xiao Zhou watched Jiang You write five or six dishes, "It's too much, just the three of us." ”

"Almost, this dish is not large," After writing, Jiang You sent the menu and order paper to the counter, and when he walked back, he saw Li Ronggao push open the door of the restaurant and walk in.

After seeing Jiang You and Xiao Zhou, Li Ronggao walked straight towards them, "Xiao Jiang, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Jiang You looked at Li Ronggao wearing a black leather coat and a few gold rings on his hands, and said, "Boss Li is getting more and more magnificent. ”

Li Ronggao pulled out a chair and sat down, "It's okay, Xiao Jiang, Xiao Zhou has put a lot of thought into your house." ”

"Yes." Jiang You also sat down, he took out the cups in the three sets of utensils and poured hot water.

Li Ronggao took a cup in his hand, "At first, I thought that the house here was not easy to rent, I saw that he had not rented it out, so I told him that the price could be lower, and you Brother Jiang didn't care about the one hundred and two hundred, right?" ”

He took a sip of water and continued: "As a result, he said that he was looking for someone who looked kind and had a stable job, and it was really the first time I saw it, and renting a house depends on the other party's appearance and occupation." ”

"It's been hard work," Jiang You picked up the cup, "Xiao Zhou, I'll toast you with tea instead of wine." ”

"It should be, it should be."

After touching the cups and taking a sip of tea, the first dish of dried bamboo shoots and duck pot was delivered.

Putting down the dish, the waiter took out a lighter and lit the small stove under the crockpot.

"Recently, has it had an impact on your business?" Jiang You picked a dried bamboo shoot and took a bite.

"It's getting harder and harder to do business." Li Ronggao sighed.

"Didn't you change cars again?"

"Yes, the group rent hit, and then the big companies came in, and they signed a long-term contract with the landlord for five years and eight years, and then rented out the house after renovating it. We can only rely on old customers, one by one," Li Ronggao repeated, "Business is getting harder and harder." ”

"If you rent it out, the rent should be low, right?"

"How can it be low," Li Ronggao sandwiched a piece of duck meat, "They grab the market, money is not used for money, today this and the landlord say 5000, tomorrow the one will say 6000, the price rises like a mountain, the fall is like a thread, the house price, the rent is like this." ”

The dishes are coming up one after another.

"Unified decoration is also beneficial, and there are indeed potential safety hazards in non-standard group rentals."

"What's in it for you?" Li Ronggao's tone was raised a little, "It looks beautiful, the formaldehyde is exceeded, one of my customers yesterday, he told me that he originally rented that kind of house, it looks good, the furniture and electrical appliances are new, very bourgeoisie, and the result is to sleep with the window closed at night, and the smell in the cupboard ......"

Li Ronggao shook his head, "Then he still came to rent my house here, and he lost the deposit and a month's rent." ”

"They were all renovated in more than ten days, and they rented out without blowing." Zhou Liang added.

"That's it, that's true, but someone will rent it anyway," Jiang You took a chopstick fat cow and put it in a small bowl and ate it slowly, "I can also follow the price after the year." ”

"It's time to go up."

"The bigger the company, the less conscientious it is," Li Ronggao said, "what they have written in the propaganda is good, what is the standard construction, environmental protection materials ......

Zhou Liang guessed: "Maybe the people below are cutting corners?" ”

"The capital pushes away, and the conscience can't become a KPI, the upper level pretends not to see it, and the lower salesman does everything."

Jiang You saw that the duck pot was about to run dry, so he called the waiter to put out the fire.

"Today, those two girls told me that they wanted to renovate the house, and they wanted to change it to a bit of a mood, get a photo wall, a night light, a carpet ......"

"It doesn't cost much." Li Ronggao said.

"It's not much, I'll scare them into raising the price, it's fun," Jiang You scooped a bowl of fish soup, and after taking a sip, he said, "Go to my place for a cup of tea in a while?" My yard is ready. ”

"I've been hearing you talk about the yard, I'll go and see it today," Li Ronggao glanced out, "This snow is estimated to accumulate tonight." ”

"It's been cold this year."

After eating, after a short rest, Jiang You took them to the worm house.

Li Ronggao walked around the yard, "It's good, it's really good, I envy you," he looked at the pomegranate tree after the swing, "After two or three years, the tree grows, and your yard will look better." ”

"I think so too, come in and sit, it's cold outside."

Jiang You made three cups of tea, brought them out of the kitchen and put them on the long table, "I went to the flower and bird market a few days ago and wanted to buy a turtle to raise it back, but they told me that the turtle would hibernate in winter." ”

Li Ronggao laughed, "Didn't you say last time that you still want to raise birds?" ”

"I want to raise it."

"Where's your son?" Li Ronggao asked about Jiang Mo.

"Upstairs," Jiang You came out with a bag of melon seeds and a bag of pistachios, tore open the wrapping paper and poured some on the table, "It's winter, and he's lazy." ”

"Alright, let's sit down for a while."

"It's a rare get-together." Jiang You took out a box of cigarettes and a lighter from the counter again.

Li Ronggao took out a cigarette and lit it, "It's not easy to raise a child, right?" ”

"It's okay, he's pretty good."

"My niece, just divorced, her son is back to the man, and her own business is doing very well......"

Jiang You heard what Li Ronggao meant, and he said: "Don't say goodbye, I'm afraid of others." ”

"Let's live together, you are a man, and taking care of children is definitely not as meticulous as a woman."

"Farewell, I'm fine now, but I'm not comfortable with more people."

"Brother Jiang, do you remember Fang Xuezhou?" Zhou Liang said suddenly.

Jiang You subconsciously frowned, "What's wrong with him?" ”

"The previous tenant? A pervert who abuses cats? Li Ronggao asked.

"It's him, he still lives in Lan Xinyuan, I saw him recently, and I chatted with him a few words."

"How's he doing?"

"I found a job, I forgot what to do, I rented a garage, and there lived next door to an old woman who picked up garbage, he seemed to be taking care of her, and that old woman was also miserable," Zhou Liang sighed, "Her son seems to have been a very famous entrepreneur originally, and then went bankrupt and committed suicide." ”

"Her son used to fund Fang Xuezhou."

"No wonder."

Under the street lamp, snowflakes jumped.
