The rent is 2,800 yuan!
This price would not be considered low even ten years later, not to mention it was still 2004.
When Li Dong heard this price, he immediately knew that Wu Qian regarded him as an inexperienced fool. He turned around and left without saying anything.
Wu Qian saw that Li Dong was about to leave and quickly said, "Mr. Li, the price can be negotiated. Don't be in such a hurry to leave."
Li Dong stopped and frowned, "The price you said is not sincere at all. A two-bedroom house like this near the university town costs about 1,000 yuan. I might as well buy it myself at 2,800 yuan."
Wanyuan's opening price is only 3,000 yuan per square meter. If it were not for the time it takes to renovate a new house, Li Dong would have bought it himself.
However, even if he rented it, he did not plan to rent it for long. In the future, Pingchuan will be his development site, and Li Dong will buy a house in Pingchuan sooner or later.
Hearing Li Dong's words, Wu Qian quickly said, "Mr. Li, you are talking about those old residential areas. This is a newly renovated house, and it is a well-furnished house with complete furniture and appliances. You can move in with a bag. How can the price be the same? "
"That 2,800 yuan is too outrageous. Give me a real price. If I can accept it, I will sign the contract. If not, then forget it."
Wu Qian saw this and pretended to be embarrassed, "Then please wait. I will talk to the landlord and see if we can lower the price."
When Li Dong nodded, Wu Qian asked Li Dong to sit down and went into the bathroom to make a phone call.
Li Dong did not care whether she was really making a phone call or not. Anyway, if the price is higher than his expectations, he will leave. With money, he will not be afraid of not being able to rent a house.
After about four or five minutes, Wu Qian came out.
"Mr. Li, the landlord said all kinds of good things about me. At first, he did not agree to lower the price. Later, I …"
Wu Qian showed off in front of Li Dong. Seeing Li Dong's indifferent expression, she said helplessly, "2,200 yuan. This is the lowest price. Wanyuan can rent a rough house for 1,500 yuan a month. If you don't believe me, you can ask."
Li Dong was too lazy to waste too much energy on the rent. He said directly, "2,000 yuan. If you can rent it, then rent it. If not, then forget it."
Actually, 2,000 was a bit high, but Li Dong didn't want to waste any more time.
He could accept paying 200 to 300 yuan per month since he wouldn't be staying for long anyway.
Li Dong planned to buy a house after a period of time. It would take about three to five months for the renovations to be done. There was no need to waste a few hundred yuan.
This time, Wu Qian did not call the landlord to communicate. Instead, she hesitated for a moment and agreed directly. Obviously, the previous offer was not her bottom line.
The rental contract was signed by Li Dong and Wu Qian, and the landlord did not show up.
Li Dong didn't know if the agent had become the second landlord, but this wasn't what he cared about. It was just renting a house. Why should he care so much about other people's business?
After paying three months' rent, a month's deposit, and an intermediary fee, Li Dong had spent almost 10,000 yuan.
Only he could afford it. Normal university students couldn't afford it.
Fortunately, Wu Qian was very straightforward. After Li Dong paid the money, he got the key. From now on, he could move in at any time.
…
After leaving the agency, Li Dong didn't go back to school.
He first went to a small restaurant and had lunch. In the afternoon, Li Dong went to Longhua Square.
Most of the renovation in Longhua had been completed. According to Yi Feng, it should be completed in the middle of January.
The construction period was less than three months, which was a few days ahead of the expected schedule.
Hearing this news, Li Dong seemed to be in a good mood.
He stayed in Longhua until about five o 'clock. Then, Li Dong got up and prepared to go back to school.
When he went downstairs, he happened to meet Wang Jia again.
Since the last time he almost made the girl cry, Li Dong had been avoiding the Rental Agency when he came to Longhua. He didn't expect to meet them today.
After all, they were acquaintances. Naturally, he couldn't pretend that he didn't see them. Li Dong greeted, "Miss Wang, what a coincidence."
Wang Jia was still holding a cardboard box in her hands. When she heard Li Dong's greeting, she immediately snapped, "What coincidence? You're here to watch me make a fool of myself, aren't you? You deserve half of the credit for my firing."
"You were fired?"
Li Dong was a little surprised. After he said that, he saw Wang Jia staring at him. He quickly laughed and said, "I didn't mean that. Why did you quit?"
Wang Jia also seemed to want to find someone to talk to. She put down the cardboard box and snorted angrily, "It's all Wang Tuzi's fault. Anyway, I didn't want to do this for a long time. I'm fired!"
When Li Dong heard Wang Jia call Wang Yunqing Wang Tuzi, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Previously, he thought that Wang Jia and Wang Yunqing were relatives. Now, it seemed that they didn't have a relationship. Otherwise, they wouldn't have acted like this.
Then, Li Dong chatted with Wang Jia for a while. From Wang Jia's words, it seemed that he had something to do with her being fired this time.
Wang Yunqing's excuse for firing her was bad service attitude and customer complaints.
Li Dong was a little embarrassed. He was just joking. He didn't expect that he would really cause her to lose her job.
When Wang Jia saw that Li Dong was embarrassed in front of her, she felt a lot better. She smiled and said, "Forget it. Even if you didn't do this, Wang Tuzi would definitely find another excuse. That guy has long been unhappy with me. Besides, I don't want to stay here anymore. I do all the hard work, but in the end, the credit goes to someone else. It's boring. "
Although Wang Jia said that, Li Dong naturally wouldn't ignore it. He wasn't that thick-skinned.
After thinking about it, Li Dong said, "So, have you found a job now? My supermarket is about to open. Why don't … "
Before he finished speaking, he saw Wang Jia roll her eyes and said, "Thank you very much! But forget about the job. I graduated from Jiangzhou University with a master's degree. I won't be reduced to being a salesperson for you. "
When Li Dong heard that, he was a little surprised. He didn't expect that.
Previously, when he saw Wang Jia serving tea at the rental office, Li Dong thought she was just an ordinary employee. He didn't expect her to be a top student of Jiangzhou University.
Graduates of Jiangzhou University were still very popular in Jiangbei, especially Wang Jia who had a master's degree.
"Then why did you go to Longhua to do this?"
Wang Jia rolled her eyes at him. "What do you mean by doing this? Do you think anyone can be an administrative assistant in Longhua? "
Li Dong thought about it and agreed. Longhua was second to none in Jiangbei. The quality of its employees was naturally not comparable to a small company.
Wang Jia had both education and good looks. Li Dong wasn't worried that she wouldn't be able to find a good job. The guilt in his heart suddenly decreased a lot.
Looking at the time, it was almost six o 'clock. Li Dong said, "Since I caused you to lose your job, I'll treat you to a meal today to make up for it."
Unexpectedly, Wang Jia said warily, "What do you want? Let me tell you, I have a boyfriend! "
Li Dong's face darkened. He had a girlfriend!
Brother Dong was generous for once today. Not only did she not appreciate it, but she even dared to question his character!
Fine, Li Dong didn't want to do anything unnecessary. He said impatiently, "Then do as you please. I'll leave first. Hope you find a good job."
When Li Dong really left, Wang Jia muttered, "Stingy! Not a bit of sincerity. How can you treat just once? The richer you are, the more stingy you are! "
After saying that, she touched her stomach and sighed. "I'm so hungry. It's so pitiful to have no money. The free meal is gone."
