No, I can't call him a small agent anymore. Thanks to my hard work, the small shop on the east side of the Second East Ring has been assigned to me.
No matter what, he had to call him Store Manager now!
They walked to Qin Guan's property first. This was a procedure that every owner had to go through before handing over their property.
The property had been entrusted to an agent for many years, so they had to check if it had been damaged or changed when it was reclaimed.
In the winding alley, the manager, who had been surprised by Qin Guan's generosity, started to introduce the property to him.
"Your house was entrusted to us to rent. I've done a complete set of renovations for you according to the condition of your house. This way, we can maximize the effective rent."
Actually, we are just making a profit from the price difference. If we add a little more to the rent, we can at least make a living. Am I right? Brother? "
You are right. No wonder I have to warn Qin Guan in advance. When they arrived at Qin Guan's first house, which was also the largest one, even Qin Guan was surprised by the flexibility of the agency.
It was a small courtyard with one bedroom and one living room. The room had been old when Qin Guan had bought it, but it had been refurbished by the agency.
This small suite, which was less than 50 square meters, had been used as a staff dormitory by the tenant. The small courtyard was full of ropes, and pieces of clothing and bedding were exposed to the sun, indicating that there were many people living here.
The moment he stepped into the room, he saw luggage racks that he couldn't move his feet away from. There were bunk beds that were tightly packed together.
It was already working hours, so the customers who were waiters in the small restaurant were nowhere to be seen.
"How many people are living here?"
The manager smiled awkwardly and showed his palm to Qin Guan with his fingers spread wide open.
"Five? That's good. "
"Double five. Here, I just looked at it."
Your hand gestures are really good. It seems that you are a person with high comprehensive qualities …
He looked at a few small houses in a row, and the situation was similar. Some were even charged according to the number of beds, and the turnover was relatively high.
Some of the newer ones were divided into partitions and rented out.
When he stepped out of the last house, he was stopped by a man across the courtyard.
"Aiyo! Young man! You're back! "
Qin Guan tilted his head in confusion as he looked at the kind-looking woman wearing a red sleeve band and a folding stool.
"What? Don't you remember me? When you bought the house here, I reminded you out of goodwill! "
"Oh!"
Qin Guan suddenly understood. Cong Nianwei was just curious.
"It's not that I want to criticize you, but you came back just in time. The house you bought is that one, right?"
Qin Guan nodded.
"That's right, just you wait. Sigh, take a seat first! Then she handed the folding chair to Cong Nianwei and went back to her room. The door was ajar.
After a short while, he took out a small coarse leather book with a cover made of kraft paper. There were three words printed in red ink on the cover: Notebook.
"Let me show you. It's the cost of sanitation, water and electricity, street reconstruction... All the expenses are listed here."
Qin Guan took the record, which was written down clearly. Even the date of receipt was marked clearly. He was delighted.
"Thank you, ma 'am. The list is attached to the back of my contract."
The middle-aged woman didn't beat around the bush. She glared at the owner and said, "That's not necessarily true. These unscrupulous people will do anything to earn money!"
"Look at your octagonal house. Look at what they've done to it!"
"If you come back from abroad and have a bad one, how are you going to sell it?"
"What's more, for those expenses that don't have a receipt, he can just go to the street and give you a receipt. Do you believe that he can stick five or six receipts for you with just a spit?"
The awe-inspiring old woman stood in front of them like a mother protecting her chicks. She was so enthusiastic that she looked like a mother protecting her chicks.
In today's metropolis, the word "neighbor" has been gradually forgotten by us in the surging secular world.
However, in this alley, which was known for the tightest neighborhood relationships, distant relatives were not as good as close neighbors. This was vividly reflected here.
The old men playing chess and cards at the entrance of the alley had the best memory in this area. Whenever an unfamiliar face appeared, the curious and enthusiastic old men would be the first hurdle to greet you.
Between the two low rooms was a simple grocery store made of asbestos tiles. At the door, there would definitely be housewives sitting or squatting, munching on melon seeds, eating peanuts, and grinding their teeth.
Today, I bought a bunch of green onions. Tomorrow, the aroma of your stew would fill the air.
The big porcelain bowl conveyed you, me, and him. The new dishes added during dinner were shared with each other, so the person who passed it also forgot who this blue and white porcelain belonged to.
The ones who peed and played in the mud must be the childhood friends from the same yard. The ones who grew up together with the swinging school bags were the friendship that surrounded them after they went their separate ways in this city.
Even though they had not seen each other for many years, the wrinkles on their faces could not stop their hearts from getting closer.
In the alley, it sat there quietly, watching people come and go, moving away or settling down. All the stories that belonged to us were also preserved here.
Qin Guan was smiling as brightly as a chrysanthemum in the yard. He responded to his neighbor, who was always protecting him.
"Wow, you are more experienced than us young people. Let me check it. The money doesn't fall from the sky, does it?"
"That's right. What's your family name, young man?"
"My family name is Qin. You can call me Xiao Qin. "
"Okay, Xiao Qin. Do you know that our house is going to be demolished?"
"I know. The manager called me to take a look at the house's facilities because of this matter. That's why I came here. "
Hearing that the young man next to her, who had never shown his face since he bought the house, was also a member of their group, the middle-aged woman naturally cared about him.
