Chapter 9: The Man in Leather Jacket

As night falls, the lights come on.

In the Golden Bull City, there are noises and the sound of vehicle horns, one after another.

A minibus slowly drove into the bus terminal in Anyang District, and after stopping, the passengers got off one after another.

"Is this the city? It's gorgeous! ”

Brooke looked around excitedly, it was an eye-opener today.

Before, in the slums, looking at the buildings and vehicles, he was already extremely surprised, and it was not at all comparable to the dilapidated and dirty waste land.

Now that I have come to the city, it is even stronger than the slums, which is a small thing.

The whole bus station is more than ten times larger than the slum, the square is one or two kilometers in diameter, and there are hundreds of minibuses and buses parked in it, and you can still see the huge, majestic and domineering passenger headquarters in the distance.

Farther away, there are colorful buildings with dozens of floors, with different shapes and countless numbers.

Under the illumination of the light, it reflects a mesmerizing brilliance.

There are also various subtitles and images of some celebrities on it.

"Brother? What are you looking at? ”

Brooke turned his head, curious.

"Nothing."

Lin Fan's gaze retracted from the black leather-clothed man who hurriedly left in the distance, and said lightly: "Let's go, find a place to live first." ”

The man in black leather clothes, Lin Fan has noticed since the other party got into the car, there is nothing wrong, the only strange thing is that the other party's dress looks a little maverick, and he is dressed so tightly on a hot day, normal people will look at it twice.

Lin Fan also vaguely "smelled" a strange breath from the other party, but he didn't think much about it.

Leaving the bus station and coming to the busy and flowery street, Brooke, who was originally excited, suddenly lowered his head and his cheeks were slightly red.

"What's wrong?" Lin Fan was puzzled, he was still excited just now, and suddenly pulled his head?

Brooke smiled a little far-fetched: "It's nothing, it's just the way they look at us......"

Lin Fan swept the surroundings, suddenly suddenly, patted Brooke's head, and chuckled: "Don't pay attention to them, others are others, you are you, why do you care so much?" Remember, people have to be thick-skinned, and if you don't have thick skin, you can't do a big thing! ”

Brooke was stunned, revealing adoration.

is worthy of his brother, he can say such things so confidently, and it seems to be very reasonable.

"Let's go, brother will take you to a good place!"

Lin Fan dragged Brooke into a mobile phone store that looked quite imposing.

"Welcome, I wonder if you need any help?"

As soon as they walked in, a female staff member immediately greeted them with a smile, and after her eyes swept over the two of them, a strange look flashed in her eyes.

Although the two of them were dressed in tatters, their clothes were clean, but they had a sour smell of poverty.

But due to professional ethics, she still received her warmly.

"I'll see for myself first."

Lin Fan waved his hand, walked around the huge hall for a while, and finally stopped in front of a glass booth, pointed to one of the mobile phones and said, "I want this mobile phone, can it be cheaper?" ”

There was a trace of disdain in the hearts of the female staff, and they were really a poor ghost.

On the surface, he smiled: "Hello, sir, this mobile phone has been eliminated for many years, the signal and running speed are very slow, if you want to buy a low-end brand, I recommend you to choose this one." After purchase, the included built-in card also comes with a free one-month credit and package data. ”

As she spoke, she took out a mobile phone with a price tag of 1998 gold from the booth.

"No, I want this." Lin Fan shook his head, his eyes were firm, and his face was arrogant.

Buy a mobile phone and get a month's bill and data? It's so stingy!

Who to look down on?

Again...... Which eye do you see that I look like someone who can afford such a phone?

Although he has a huge sum of 80,000 gold, the consumption level in this city is not ordinarily high, and if he doesn't save a little, I'm afraid it won't be long before he spends it.

Lin Fan ignored the saleswoman's sales, took out the gold card, and patted it on the booth with a proud face: "50 gold less, I am the owner of this mobile phone!" ”

The saleswoman rolled her eyes, ignored Lin Fan's poor appearance, put the mobile phone in her hand into the booth, took out the smartphone worth 598, and reluctantly took Lin Fan to go through the formalities.

"Brother...... You're so strong! ”

Walking out of the phone store, Brooke was full of adoration.

"Hmph, Brooke, let me tell you, the more beautiful a woman is, the more she can deceive. I just gave you a correct example, you will often encounter this kind of thing in the future, you must stick to your heart, no matter where you are, licking the dog will not end well! ”

Lin Fan held his head high and said with great pride, this is the truth that he has understood after many years of being single.

"Uh-huh!" Brooke nodded vigorously and looked at his phone with a glittering eye: "This is the kind of machine that can talk to others from afar?" Fang Zi's father has one, but it's far worse than that, the screen is small, it's too old, and it can't be charged! ”

"More than 500 gold...... It's expensive! ”

"yes......"

Lin Fan sighed, if it was before, he didn't feel anything, but now, this money is spent a little less. Saving is not a long-term solution, you have to find a way to make money.

Lin Fan spent more than ten minutes through the automatic download software function of his mobile phone, and finally downloaded a [Find a House] APP, clicked on registration and login, and searched for nearby listings.

After several phone calls, I finally settled on a place to live.

"Let's go, I've found a place to live."

Lin Fan made a navigation, and after entering the address, he found that it was not too far from where he lived, five kilometers, just this distance...... By walking, of course!

Along the way, take a look.

Lin Fan kept answering Brooke's various questions.

"Brother, how do you know so much?"

Brooke was amazed, he had barely left Ninth Street since he was a child, and he had never touched many things, and his brother was the same, but like a jack of all trades, he had to answer all questions.

"Do you think your brother's school has gone for nothing these days?"

Lin Fan glanced at Brooke.

There is a school on Ninth Street, which is said to be a school, but in fact it is an educational place opened by some so-called "intellectuals" living on Ninth Street for the purpose of living, teaching some young children who can give some tuition fees in the city.

Parents don't want to go to Floating City, but if their children can learn a certain amount of knowledge, they may have the opportunity to leave Ninth Street in the future, find a job in the slums, or even develop in the city.

These days, Lin Fan doesn't stay at home and lie in bed all the time, in order to learn more, he naturally has to contact these "intellectuals".

He sat at the back of the classroom with a group of stray dogs, and those people did not dare to drive them away.

After understanding it, Lin Fan found that this world was probably not much different from what he knew, except for some super-technological things that he didn't understand, the others almost knew it.

For example, the streamers that streak overhead are not meteor showers, but vehicles driving in the sky.

Another example is the discs floating above the head, in which you can vaguely see all kinds of men and women dressed in revealing clothes, jumping happily in them.

There are also glass plank roads crisscrossing your feet, express trains that run like subways, intelligent robots that serve people in countless shops, frisbees that transport goods, and so on.

"Brother, there are a lot of reformers in the city!"

Brooke's eyes wandered around, and he couldn't help but exclaim when he saw that some parts of some people were clearly not flesh and blood.

Lin Fan nodded, Ninth Street is a transformation person in Tailong, but in this city, not to mention flooding, it can be seen everywhere.

What a rich man's place!

Soon, the two came to a community - Jingxin Garden

It is an old community, revealing a sense of age.

Lin Fan dialed the phone, and a deep voice came from inside: "Arrived?" Come in, 4 buildings with five units. ”

There was no one guarding the entrance of the community, and after hanging up the phone, the two walked straight in.

Building 4 and Unit 5, a drunken middle-aged fat man received two people, no nonsense, and took the two to the fifth floor.

"This is it, two bedrooms and one living room, one to pay three, one thousand and three per month, a total of five thousand two hundred gold, this is the contract. If you have no opinion, sign and pay. ”

"Five thousand two?!"

Brooke exclaimed.

"What? Comments? The middle-aged fat man carried the beer bottle and glanced sideways at Brooke.

"I didn't ...... No comments......"

Brooke lowered his head in fear and pulled the corner of Lin Fan's clothes.

Lin Fan frowned, looked at the structure and settings in the house, it was quite complete, and it could be used, but it was a little old and dirty, but there was a relatively large balcony, and the floor was okay.

"Okay, I'll rent it."

Lin Fan didn't hesitate, signed a contract with the other party, and after payment, he got the house key.

On the way here, he checked out a lot of properties, which were already very cheap.

The drunken middle-aged fat man was just about to leave, when he suddenly paused, turned around and said solemnly: "Look at your appearance, it's the first time you've come to the city, right?" It's best not to go out at night if you don't have anything particularly important, so as not to have any accidents. It's not as safe in the city as you think. ”

"Got it, thank you landlord." Lin Fan stood at the door and smiled slightly.

The middle-aged fat man left, Lin Fan was just about to close the door, room 502 on the opposite side of the door opened, and a young man walked out with two black plastic bags and put them at the door.

Lin Fan was stunned.

"Something?" The man looked up, his face was slightly pale, and his expression was cold.

"It's fine." Lin Fan closed the door with a calm face.

After closing the door, Lin Fan couldn't help frowning, the man just now was none other than the young man in a black leather coat he met on the minibus before.

So coincidentally, live on the opposite door?
