Chapter 6 Renting a Story
After letting Zhang Linfan live in the store for a few days, he always felt that something was weird, so I took the initiative to ask him to rent a room.
At first, he didn't agree, as if it meant that there were still a few empty rooms on the second floor of my shop, and it was better to give it to me than to give the rent to someone else.
However, after all, Lin'er and I are both daughters, even if it is a fairy and a demon, but it is also a fairy and a banshee, and he is a mortal, and he can't live together like Chang Jing Xianjun, there are always some problems living together.
So, Lin'er and I still strongly opposed him staying all the time, and in the end, we escorted him out to find a house.
To say that in this era, it is really not difficult to rent a house, but most of the time, those good properties are in the hands of black-hearted agents. There are also a lot of small advertisements on the telephone poles on the side of the road, however, many people also say that they want to rent a house in their personal name, and a phone call is over, and they are all black-hearted intermediaries, asking about the price, which is ridiculously high, and saying that they have to charge an extra month or two months for rent.
It's not a big deal for me, even if it is okay to let him live for a few more days, but Lin'er said that it is really troublesome, and she is unwilling to die. Pulled me and Zhang Linfan to look for them one by one.
Generally speaking, no matter where there is an aunt in our country, there are resources. Therefore, Lin'er, who is well-behaved and sweet-mouthed, no matter which community or building she walks to, will arouse the love of those aunts, not only to find out which house to rent and which house is better, but also to get some delicious and fresh melons, fruits, pears and peaches, and even more, to protect her for the media.
After looking for countless neighborhoods, I finally stopped in a villa area, where an aunt said that the house here is a little far away from the city, so the price is not too expensive, and there is a young man who rents one, but because he is lonely, he wants to find someone to share with, one can have a person to talk to as a companion, and the other can also share half of the rent.
The three of us summed it up, in fact, the shared house is not bad, this place in Shanghai is drunk with money, materialism, everything is more expensive, if you can rent a one-bedroom apartment, rent half a villa, it is still very cheap, plus the other party is a young man, presumably the well water will not violate the river water, Zhang Linfan will not feel restrained.
So, we rushed to the door of the villa, and the black, gold, and bronze plaque on it was neatly written with a few numbers - "707"!
I rang the doorbell repeatedly, but no one answered, could it be because people need to go to work during the day, so they are not at home? Thinking of this, we turned back and asked my aunt if she had the young man's phone number, but we were told that there was no.
Seeing that it was almost 3 o'clock in the afternoon, we had not eaten a meal for a day, so Zhang Linfan proposed to invite me and Lin'er to dinner.
Although Zhang Linfan looks like a homeless man, he is by no means a poor person because he helps people fight for others. Lin'er and I didn't be polite to him, we found an authentic local dish recommended by a netizen, and ordered a large table of dishes, and then had a happy meal.
After eating until about five o'clock, Lin'er had to go to a nearby shopping mall, and as a result, the three of us walked around the mall until more than 7 o'clock in the evening, and she refused to stop until Zhang Linfan's big bag and small bag in my hands mentioned that she couldn't lift it anymore. Estimating that even if the young man in the villa went to work, he should go home from work at this time, so he followed the two of us back to the community where Zhang Linfan was about to move in.
Back to the "707" again, Zhang Linfan shrank behind me and didn't move, but Lin'er held an ice cream in her hand and pressed it one after another.
About ten minutes later, just when we thought the doorbell was going to be out of power, although the picture of the visual access control was black and mushy, a lazy voice came out.
"The courtyard door is not locked, come in!"
This voice is neither yin nor yang, and some are neither male nor female, it sounds somewhat familiar, but it is extremely unfamiliar.
The moment the door opened, Zhang Linfan naturally blocked in front of me and Lin'er, and greeted the people who came out.
A man who was a few centimeters taller than him, with fair skin and long flowing hair, and a somewhat thin body, appeared in front of us.
He looks very delicate, a pair of Danfeng eyes are slender and slightly upturned, a pair of thin eyebrows are bent at the tip of the eyebrows, the whiteness of the skin can be compared with Zhang Linfan, and the charm of his eyes reminds me of Changjing Xianjun, a pair of lips are as thin as cicada wings, ruddy as beads without a trace of lip lines.
"What's the matter with you?"
When he saw us, a man and two women, he looked quite surprised.
Zhang Linfan couldn't even open his mouth to outsiders, he just stared at others.
After pushing him away, I walked over with a shallow smile on my lips.
"Sir, are you looking for someone to share a flat with?"
After looking me up and down for a long time, the corners of his eyes seemed to show a hint of displeasure, and he stretched out a slender white and slender hand in front of him, bent down and examined his nails, while lowering his eyebrows.
"I don't rent to women!"
Lin'er listened to his tone, a mouthful of ice cream was suspended and squirted out directly, a pair of phoenix eyes were as round as bells, and two black and shiny eyes with a strange blue light looked at the person in front of her in a daze.
"No, it's not us who rent, it's like this, it's this handsome guy who is about the same as you wants to rent!"
It may be that seeing that this person's attitude is a little different, Lin'er explained vigorously. However, even with this explanation, the other party still resisted a little. It's right to think about it, in fact, I quite understand, after all, he is a handsome and handsome young man, and it is indeed a little inappropriate to live under the same roof with two daughters.
"This gentleman, we won't be staying here, please rest assured!"
Seeing that the more she explained, the more anxious she became, I quickly echoed it.
Raising his eyes and looking at me, the young man also seemed to feel a little guilty about his arrogant attitude just now, and his face blushed slightly, revealing a good-looking smile.
Renting a house can be big or small, even if the exterior of the house is beautiful and generous, the inside is also very important, so I pushed Zhang Linfan hard.
"Well, can we go in and have a look?"
This guy is quite smart and clever today, and he immediately understood what I meant, and blurted out the question.
Although there was still a trace of hesitation in the other party's eyes, he observed us repeatedly, but he also felt that we were not malicious, and we did not look like bad people, so he nodded and dodged to make a "please" action.
Walking into the villa, the three of us couldn't help but glance at each other!
It's a good house, a standard two-storey villa with two oversized bedrooms, and both have a small terrace, separate bathrooms and bathrooms on the first and second floors, and a kitchen, which is a very unique setting.
Moreover, what surprised me the most was that a man living alone in such a big house was still cleaned up, which can be described as spotless, and there were a lot of household appliances, and more importantly, there was no smell in the house where the man lived alone.
I remember watching a movie a few days ago, and there was a particularly interesting line in it, and when I thought of this line, I couldn't help but worry a little about Zhang Linfan.
"The room is clean and smellless, it's either a pseudo-mother or Gay!"
The scene from the movie quickly swirled in my mind, and I unconsciously laughed out loud.
Lin'er didn't know if she understood my thoughts in seconds, or secretly used the "voyeuristic spell" on me, anyway, she glanced at me with very weird but empathetic eyes, and then laughed.
The two men looked at us at the same time, and after looking at each other suspiciously, they shrugged their shoulders helplessly, as if to show that they didn't understand the world of women at all.
"How do you calculate the rent?"
Zhang Linfan seemed to be very satisfied with the house, and ignored our appearance, but directly opened his mouth to the young man.
The young man's attitude towards him was always better than that of me and Lin'er, and when he heard him ask, he quickly opened his mouth with a smile, and his voice was gentle and slightly shy.
"It's a little far from the city center, the rent is 5500 per month, if we share it, I'll take 3000, you can take 2500, as for the coal, water and electricity here are included in the rent, the landlord will do it himself, don't need to worry about it, well, it's to pay three mortgages, generally speaking, the landlord will collect the money a month in advance, until I give me the money!"
As if he was afraid that Zhang Linfan would not believe it, he went back to the room and took out the contract to show us. After briefly checking the contract, we didn't see any major problems, and we were really satisfied with this house, so Zhang Linfan directly took out 6,000 yuan to rent it.
The young man's name was very good, it was Yun Yan.
"Is your surname Yun, this surname is really good! Yun Yan, is it another name for the dragon in the zodiac?"
Lin'er seemed to be intrigued by his name, swallowing the cone of the last bite of ice cream, pulling out a wet tissue and wiping her mouth while asking curiously.
Yun Yan's attitude at this time has changed a lot compared to just now, and the smile on his face has become more and more kind.
"Yes, yes, do you really know? I was born in the Year of the Dragon, and my surname happened to be Yun, so my parents directly gave me the name Yun Yan!"
Zhang Linfan didn't seem to understand, one hand gently scratched the back of his head, and his face showed a look of eagerness for knowledge.
"Is there any other name for this zodiac?"
His question is not too stupid, most people don't know the other names of the zodiac signs, and it is normal that he is not clear.
"Linfan, you belong to a pig, a pig has no other name, a pig, a pig!"
Lin'er, a bad-hearted guy, will always seize the opportunity to bully others.
"I'm not a pig, but why are pigs pigs?"
I couldn't stand his iceberg's silly and sweet expression, so I reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and sighed heavily.
"Don't listen to her, the pig has another name, it is called Yin Zhong, and some people call it Black Face Lang or Black Master!"
