Chapter 14: Are You Short of Money?
"The house price is already more than 10,000!"
"In the core Olympic area, the house price has risen to 20,000!"
"This is too exaggerated, how can ordinary people afford it?"
"Mr. Zhang, you say, will this house price fall?"
Li Bin, who has been a network administrator for two years and works with computers every day, was shocked when he heard that the housing prices in Xianghe District in the eastern part of Tongzhou, Yanjing had risen to more than 10,000.
Two years ago......
When he first came to this city, the average price of housing prices in this city was only more than 7,000 except for the craziest areas.
The house price of more than 7,000 yuan, although it is still unaffordable for a poor boy from a small place like Li Bin, at least in the dead of night, he can still imagine the future and dream of getting rich.
Two years later......
This bustling city successfully deprived Li Bin of his right to fantasize, and he felt scared even when he looked up, like a mouse in the gutter who saw the bright sunshine and was instantly blinded, then fell to the ground and screamed, and finally ran around with his head in his hands.
"After the end of autumn, the weather is only going to get colder and the snow is only going to get thicker, and when something starts to add more value, then it's no longer what it used to be."
Zhang Sheng stood at the door of the Xianghe Community, looking at the high-rise buildings in the distance, with a calm expression on his face, but his eyes exuded an indescribable heat.
After the 08 Olympics, the house in Yanjing is no longer affordable for ordinary people.
"Mr. Zhang, what you said is too profound, I ...... Not particularly knowledgeable ......."
After listening to Zhang Sheng's words, Li Bin felt that Zhang Sheng was very reasonable, but then he became confused again.
He just didn't graduate from junior high school, was kicked out of the town by his parents, and finally chose to come to Yanjing to eat and wait for Xiao Qisan to die.
Before I came, I was also ambitious, thinking that this place has a high income and high salary, and after saving some money, I will return to my hometown to build a house, open a small Internet café, and then live a beautiful life.
When he arrived, he found that the temptation of the big city was like a swinging searchlight that made you lose your bearings, and then somehow sank into it.
High income means high consumption!
Staying in this cosmopolitan city, he really didn't have the courage to live in a dark corner and eat chaff like some people.
The night of drunkenness will always be long for him.
"You don't need to understand, you just need to complete the simple tasks I gave you, and you can buy a house in Yanjing......
“……”
Entrance to the community.
Li Bin looked at Zhang Sheng blankly and said this.
Zhang Sheng was laughing.
The smile is extraordinarily sincere, and the words are full of endless convincing and infectious, so people can't help but trust him.
But what he said made Li Bin's heart surge with endless emotions.
Incredible, unbelievable, suspicious......
These emotions finally turned into a nod, and then took a pack of cigarettes and a notebook given to him by Zhang Sheng, and silently walked towards the security room of the peaceful community.
He stumbled to the security guard about what Zhang Sheng had taught him before, his eyes didn't even dare to look at the security guard, and the hand handing over the cigarette was trembling.
Half an hour later......
"It's impossible for us to provide information about the owner, and the same goes for the renovation, which is our job."
He heard the rejection.
He blushed instantly, nodded his head, and ran out of the window of the security room in a panic.
"Mr. Zhang, no, they, they, are not very able to disclose the owner's information, after all, it is not right for us to do this...... Or, change ......"
He seemed to be convinced that he couldn't do it, and he seemed to be using practical actions to prove that he had worked hard, but Zhang Sheng's proposal was indeed unreliable and could not be done at all.
Zhang Sheng was silent.
After Li Bin saw that Zhang Sheng did not respond, he was a little nervous for a while.
After Zhang Sheng looked at Li Bin's appearance, he narrowed his eyes.
"Do you really want to make money?"
"Yes, but that's not how profitable ......"
"Do you really want to make money?"
"I really want to, Mr. Zhang, I want to do it very much, but we ...... We need to think about feasibility......"
"Do you really want to make money!"
"I, I, I...... I thought, but I, I ......."
"Your behavior tells me that you don't want to make money, and you don't even have the courage to bend down and pick up money!"
"I, I'm not, I don't, I don't, I ......"
“……”
Zhang Sheng asked, Li Bin's courage to answer became weaker and weaker, and as Zhang Sheng's momentum became stronger and stronger, Li Bin found that he didn't even have the courage to look at Zhang Sheng.
He panicked.
However, he didn't know why he was so flustered.
Was he wrong?
He's right!
But......
Troubled emotions disturbed him in his heart.
For a moment, he suddenly wanted to hide back in the familiar Internet café, and then continue to live like a mouse day and night.
"Remember! Li Bin, this is my first lesson for you! It's also your first lesson in success! ”
"Raise your head and look at me!"
"We have no choice but to succeed!"
"This is a splendid world, and in this splendid world, if we don't even have the courage to move forward, then ......"
"What's the point of being alive?"
After Zhang Sheng finished speaking, he took the cigarette from Li Bin's hand and walked towards the security room.
Li Bin looked at Zhang Sheng's back in a daze, only to feel ashamed to the bones, and at the same time, somehow, a trace of unwillingness swelled in his heart.
A few minutes later, he watched Zhang Sheng walk out of the security room, and then the security guard opened the door, enthusiastically pointed Zhang Sheng in the direction, and asked for Zhang Sheng's mobile phone number.
Li Bin was stunned for a long time, only to feel that his brain was buzzing.
What did he say to the security guard?
Why would the security guard with a fierce face ...... at this moment?
At this time, he saw Zhang Sheng beckoning to him.
He subconsciously followed.
When the two walked into the community, Li Bin looked at Zhang Sheng with a complicated face: "Mr. Zhang, ...... just now"
"The security guards are also ordinary people, they are short of money, and they are actually very willing to earn some extra money without affecting their duties......"
“……”
"This world is a world of exchange of interests, it's not that you can't do it, but you haven't thought about what you want, what you have, and then, what others have, what others need......"
“……”
"Go to B3 to sweep the building, 1205 is being renovated, the owner will come at four o'clock, before four o'clock, I need the details of the entire B3 building!"
“……”
Li Bin nodded uncontrollably.
Some simple and easy-to-understand truths, but the moment Zhang Sheng said them and heard them in his ears, he felt that his worldview was subverted.
It was a shock, and then it was like an initiation.
He looked at the B3 building in the distance and finally took the first step forward.
………………………………
The night is deep.
The doorbell of Lin Xia's house rang.
Lin Xia, who had just finished revising the draft, came to the door for the first time, and just as he was about to open the door, he suddenly became vigilant again and looked at the cat's eye.
Outside the cat's eye, she saw a person she couldn't have dreamed of.
Zhang Sheng, who was in a suit and leather shoes, but sweating profusely, was accompanied by security guard Xu Bowen, standing at the door of his house, and there seemed to be something.
After hesitating for a long time, she finally chose to open the door.
In front of the iron gate, she saw Zhang Sheng laughing innocently.
"Classmate Lin, I happened to be passing by here today, I have made some money from running business in the past two days, well, I will pay you back three hundred ...... for the time being."
"Also, this is my temporary mobile phone number 1358......"
