"Elder Liu, you still remember me!" Yang Ming was very happy that Liu Weishan recognized him.
"En, I remember. I went to Tengchong for a private matter. I didn't interact with many people, so I remember you!" Liu Weishan smiled. "Young man, why did you come to Song Jiang?"
"Hehe, I am originally from Song Jiang. I just finished the college entrance exam and was preparing to apply for Song Jiang Industry University!" Yang Ming smiled.
"You are the one who rented the house?" Liu Weishan asked.
"Yes, me and my girlfriend." Yang Ming pointed at Lan Ling and said.
"Good, not bad. This little girl looks quite lively." Liu Weishan praised. "Let's go. Let's sit in my house first. I will get the keys!"
"I say, are you still renting this house?" The middle-aged woman was unhappy that Yang Ming knew the owner of the house. She guessed that this business couldn't be done anymore.
"Thank you. I know him, so I won't trouble you!" Liu Weishan said apologetically to the middle-aged woman.
"Then I will say this first. I won't return the fifty yuan deposit that you paid just now!" The middle-aged woman didn't want to lose out.
Yang Ming knew that it was reasonable for him to know Liu Weishan, but it wasn't fair for the middle-aged woman. Therefore, he didn't argue with her. He nodded and said, "Okay, I won't return it. You have been busy for half a day."
After the middle-aged woman heard this, she left with satisfaction. It would cost one yuan to take the bus back from here!
"Elder Liu is a professor at Song Jiang Industry University?" Yang Ming heard about this from the middle-aged woman.
"Yes, I am a professor here." Liu Weishan said, "Are you going to Tengchong for a holiday?"
"Not really. My friend, Zhang Bin, is him!" Yang Ming pointed at Zhang Bin and said, "His father is in the jewelry business. He went to Tengchong to gamble on jade. I followed him to join in the fun."
"Hehe, so that's the case!" Liu Weishan said, "I thought you wanted to do this business!"
"To tell you the truth, I was planning to do the same." Yang Ming didn't hide it. If he could get Liu Weishan's support, he believed that his business could be built up quickly. "I'm preparing to go to school while earning some tuition fees."
"Not bad, this is a good idea." Liu Weishan nodded, "I have done some research on jades. If you have any questions, you can find me."
They followed Liu Weishan to his residence. Liu Weishan invited them into the house and instructed his wife to make tea. Yang Ming carefully sized up Liu Weishan's residence. The house was about 150 square meters, and the decorations were exquisite. It had an antique feel to it.
"Which major are you going to apply for?" Liu Weishan took a sip of tea and started to chat.
"I haven't decided yet. I'm going to discuss it with my family," Yang Ming replied.
"En, I teach history. For my profession, you can do it if you want to be an academic, but it won't be easy for you to find a job!" Liu Weishan said, "It's right to research with your parents! How about you, young man? "Liu Weishan asked Zhang Bin.
"I'm preparing to study business administration. My family does business. After I graduate, I can help my family." Zhang Bin didn't have a good choice. Zhang Jiefang had already decided for him.
"En, Song Jiang Industry University's business administration major isn't bad!" Liu Weishan nodded, "Let's go. Let's take a look at the house."
Liu Weishan took the key and brought Yang Ming downstairs to the opposite unit.
"It's so close!" Yang Ming was a little surprised.
"En, opposite unit, sigh …" Liu Weishan couldn't help but sigh. This made Yang Ming a little confused.
When they reached the third floor, Elder Liu opened the door on the left. What surprised Yang Ming was that the interior decoration was very exquisite. Although the style was a little old, the furniture was very new. It seemed like no one had lived here before.
"It's so new! This house hasn't been lived here before? "Yang Ming was a little curious.
"Sigh, this house was prepared for my son's wedding, but …" Liu Weishan said until here and shook his head, "Forget it. It's all in the past. Let's not talk about it."
Yang Ming naturally didn't understand what Elder Liu meant. Prepared for his son's wedding? What about his son? Could it be that there was a better house than this? However, Yang Ming saw that Elder Liu wasn't willing to talk about it, so he didn't ask further.
"There's a stove, a water heater, and furniture." Liu Weishan introduced, "Because this is a school house, there's no property management fee and heating fee. You have to pay for the water, electricity, and gas by yourself. If you want to go online, you can apply for the school's broadband. It's eighty yuan a month. "
"This place is not bad. I'm very satisfied." Yang Ming nodded after listening. "Elder Liu, shall we sign the contract?"
Liu Weishan smiled and waved his hand, "Why sign a contract? Forget it. You can stay here first. Just treat it as helping me take care of this house. Otherwise, I would have to hire a worker to clean it regularly. "
"Elder Liu, do you mean that you don't want to pay the rent?" Yang Ming was stunned. "How can that be?"
"Just give me a copy of your ID card. I'll get a community pass for you." Liu Weishan said, "Forget about the money. Do you think I'm someone who cares about eight hundred yuan? Renting out the house is just to find a reliable person to take care of it for me. "
"This …" Yang Ming was a little confused. He had only met Elder Liu once. How could he let him stay in the house for free today?
"Hehe, you don't have to think too much. I don't mean anything else." Liu Weishan saw Yang Ming's hesitation and immediately understood his thoughts. "I just want to find a reliable person to not let this house become dilapidated. But let's say the ugly words first. If you mess up the house, I will kick you out! This is the benefit of not signing a contract. I can exercise my rights as the owner of the house at any time! "
"Elder Liu, don't worry. I guarantee that the house won't change its original appearance." Yang Ming was relieved after hearing and nodded. Liu Weishan was a very famous person. He shouldn't have other intentions towards Yang Ming.
Yang Ming and Lan Ling walked around the house. The more they looked, the more satisfied they felt. This was just like a newly decorated house! There was a television, a washing machine, an air conditioner, a refrigerator, and other household appliances.
While feeling satisfied, Yang Ming was a little puzzled. Why didn't Liu Weishan's son live here?
In the bedroom, a big wedding photo attracted Yang Ming's attention. A young man who looked similar to Liu Weishan was hugging a girl who wasn't very beautiful but was very virtuous. Both of them were smiling very sweetly.
Yang Ming guessed that this could be Liu Weishan's son and daughter-in-law. But Yang Ming was even more puzzled. If the wedding photo was hung here, why didn't they live here?
While he was thinking, Liu Weishan and Zhang Bin walked in. Liu Weishan saw Yang Ming looking at the photo on the wall and sighed, "Take down the photo. Don't hang it up. I don't know if they will come back."
Yang Ming didn't reply because Liu Weishan was vague. Yang Ming didn't really understand. He just said, "Okay, I will take it down later and keep it well!"
"Okay, I am not feeling very well. I will go back first. I will leave the key to you! Come visit me when you are free. " Liu Weishan's expression wasn't very good, "The community pass will take two days to get done. In these two days, just tell the guard that you are looking for me."
"Okay, Elder Liu. Are you okay?" Yang Ming asked with concern.
"I am fine. I am old. Thinking about the past is a little sad. I will go first. "Liu Weishan waved his hand and walked out of the house.
After Liu Weishan left, Zhang Bin whispered, "Why is this Elder Liu so mysterious? Doesn't this house cost money? "
Yang Ming shook his head, "Maybe it was like what he said. He didn't care about the rent. This is understandable. But Elder Liu's expression was a little weird today. "
"En, I think so too. Especially when he talked about his son." Zhang Bin agreed.
"Could it be that Elder Liu and his son had a conflict or generation gap, so his son didn't live in front of him?" Yang Ming guessed.
"It is also possible. Maybe he went abroad? Who knows! " Zhang Bin said, "I don't care. But you really earned a lot today. You didn't spend a single cent to rent such a good house! I am so envious! "
"Damn, didn't I spend fifty yuan as a middleman?" Yang Ming said.
"I despise you! But if you feel wronged, take the receipt from the middleman and ask her for the money! "Zhang Bin said.
"Forget it. She will scold me again." Yang Ming shook his head, "Oh yeah, Lan Ling, what do you think of this place? En? Lan Ling? Why aren't you talking? "
At this moment, Lan Ling was staring at the big picture on the wall in a daze!
"Lan Ling, what happened to you? Why are you in a daze? "Yang Ming was a little confused.
