Fusion New City is a new business center just built in City No. 18. It is mainly aimed at emerging Internet companies and provides them with office space.
Perhaps it was working time, so the office building in Building C was a little deserted. Ana Shen and Li Lin dragged three suitcases, which covered the entire elevator.
As the elevator rang, the 20th floor arrived.
Ana Shen pressed the house number and quickly found the door No. 2008 in the northeast corner of the corridor.
The door was open, and from the corridor you could see a greasy middle-aged man wearing black short-sleeves sitting on the sofa in the living room and taking a nap.
Ana Shen dragged her suitcase to the door and knocked on the door frame.
"Boom!"
The greasy middle-aged man was startled by the knock on the door and almost jumped up from the sofa.
When he saw Ana Shen clearly at the door, he breathed a sigh of relief, then wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and asked feebly: "Who are you looking for?"
Ana Shen stood at the door: "Are you the landlord Mr. Sun? I am the tenant I made an appointment with you this morning. My surname is Shen."
"Oh, Xiao Shen, come in quickly."
Ana Shen smiled and nodded, pulling the suitcase and walking into the house.
As soon as he entered the house, he smelled a faint fishy smell, and then he saw the landlord's sweaty feet wearing sandals.
Ana Shen and Li Lin looked at each other and silently gave up the idea of closing the door after entering.
"You can take a look at it and if you have any ideas, please bring it up. These furniture are all left by the previous tenant. If you don't want them, I'll find someone to replace them for you."
The landlord seemed to be in a bad state of mind and very tired. Even after Ana Shen entered the room, he only said a few words and did not get up.
Ana Shen didn't care much about the landlord's attitude. Soon, accompanied by Li Lin, he looked at the house with great interest.
The house is a small apartment of 63 square meters, with simple decoration but complete facilities.
Of the two rooms, one can be used to receive clients and the other can be reserved for one's own use. It is a very convenient apartment type.
"Hey, is this a poster for Rabbit Duke Paradise?"
In the bedroom, Li Lin was looking at a poster with a curious expression.
Ana Shen followed her gaze and saw a horizontal poster posted on the wall beside the bed.
On a dim yellow background, various amusement facilities such as a Ferris wheel and a merry-go-round are painted. The most eye-catching one is a huge statue of a rabbit wearing a gentleman's hat.
It is like the landmark totem of the entire playground, standing in the most eye-catching position.
Ana Shen asked: "Have you been to this amusement park?"
Li Lin said with a smile: "Not yet. I just bought a ticket downstairs and happened to see it here again. I felt a little surprised."
Ana Shen also thought of the little boy he met downstairs. Since they bought tickets in Rongxin City, it means that the location of the amusement park should not be far from here. After signing the contract later, they can inquire with the landlord. where.
After all, Li Lin helped him out all afternoon and invited her to the amusement park to repay the favor.
As for the tickets that I didn’t buy myself...it’s not a big problem. Everyone knows that the tickets for the amusement park and most of the rides inside are charged separately, and the 10 yuan ticket is probably only used as a ticket and can’t be used for anything.
When the time comes, you can just spend money to treat her.
After checking around and finding that there was no problem with the room, Ana Shen took her ID and was about to sign the contract.
He patted the landlord on the shoulder and woke up the landlord who accidentally fell asleep again. He said: "Brother Sun, I have checked the house. There is no problem. Let's sign the contract."
"Well, my house has only been renovated for a short time, so it must be fine."
The landlord rubbed his sleepy eyes and said while looking for the contract: "I'm telling you, for this house, I charge you a monthly rent of 1,800 yuan, so you can take it. You can go and find out. , in the entire Fusion New City, there is no place where the rent is cheaper than mine.”
Li Lin, who was following Shen Yan, was surprised: "How much? One thousand and eighty? How can it be so cheap?"
Hearing Li Lin's reaction, Ana Shen realized that he seemed to have made a big mistake.
"Look, this girl still knows the goods."
Ana Shen turned around and asked quietly: "One thousand and eighty...isn't cheap? Why do you react like this?"
One thousand and eighty, one-third of my salary! The small garage I rented before only cost 600 a month...
Li Lin couldn't help but have a dark look on her face when she saw Ana Shen's painful appearance.
She lowered her voice as much as possible and said in Shen Yan's ear: "This is an integrated new city. Even a 40-square-meter apartment here costs at least 4,000 yuan a month! A second apartment as big as yours costs 6,000 yuan no matter what. That’s all.”
Li Lin looked at Shen Yan in confusion: "Where did you find the house? Don't you compare prices before renting a house?"
Ana Shen: “…”
Strictly speaking, this was his first time renting a house, so he didn't think so much about it. All you need to do is enter your needs on the rental software and search according to price from low to high.
The thousand and eighty ones are at the top, aren't they directly connected?
It seems that I really missed it this time.
If we look at the normal price, 6,000 yuan, even if you include all your salary, is just enough for the rent.
Unfortunately, before Ana Shen could be happy, Li Lin's next words instantly poured cold water on him.
"I suggest you not to sign the contract first, and then take a look."
Ana Shen: “Why?”
Li Lin frowned, glanced at the landlord from the corner of her eye, and whispered: "The price of one thousand eighty yuan has completely deviated from the bottom line of the market. It stands to reason that even if his house is four thousand yuan a month, people will be competing for it. There is no need to set such a low price.”
"When this happens, according to my experience in the past few years in the Sheriff's Department, there is either a problem with his house or a problem with his contract."
Although Shen Yan had little experience in social life due to various reasons, he quickly reacted after Li Lin's reminder.
He had found some cases where he pretended to be a landlord and rented a house to several people within a few days.
What if I rent the house and clean it up, and then a bunch of new tenants come the next day, and I really have no place to reason.
After all, the fake landlord would have already run away with the money by then.
While the two were chatting quietly, the landlord also found the contract and placed it in duplicate on the table.
The landlord smiled and said, "Xiao Shen, if it's okay, we'll sign the contract and pay the rent and deposit."
"please wait."
Li Lin reached out and grabbed the certificate provided by the landlord and checked it carefully.
When comparing the real estate certificate, ID card, and the landlord himself, the whole process is very consistent with the standards.
Although the landlord was unhappy, he didn't say anything.
Li Lin looked at it for a long time. The certificates seemed to be genuine and there was nothing unusual about them. She picked up the contract again and looked at it carefully.
At this time, the smile on the landlord's face had begun to fade.
"Look, look, my house is in good condition, and the terms in the contract comply with federal regulations..."
Li Lin looked at it for a long time and found that there seemed to be no problem with the contract. There was only one strange clause, that is, "After checking out, Party A has the right to dispose of any items left by Party B in the house." '
This clause is newly added to this contract and will not be included in a normal rental contract.
However, there seems to be no problem with this newly added clause. After all, the things left here after check-out are usually abandoned by the tenant. The landlord cannot return them to you and keep them in order to rent them to new tenants as soon as possible.
Looking at it this way... there seems to be no problem with the contract.
Could it be that I am overthinking it? Is it really a mistake this time?
Li Lin returned the contract to the landlord and shook her head at Ana Shen: "There is no problem with the contract."
The landlord smiled and picked up the pen and handed it to Ana Shen: "Xiao Shen, I have several houses here. I will definitely not cheat you. Sign them. Sign them."
"Sorry to make you laugh. Mainly because I was scared of being tricked before..."
"Oh, I understand. When young people set out to pursue careers, they should be careful. Sign it, sign it."
Ana Shen smiled shyly, took the contract, and signed his name.
"The rent is 1,800, one deposit and one payment, you transfer 3,600 to me, and then on this day of every month, just remember to pay the rent to me."
The landlord said with a smile while putting the signed contract into his briefcase.
"Okay, if you have any questions, call me anytime and I won't disturb you anymore."
…
After the landlord left, Li Lin saw Ana Shen frowning and said with embarrassment: "I didn't expect such a cheap house... No... I'm sorry, I'm embarrassing you..."
Ana Shen didn’t speak yet.
Li Lin stamped her feet anxiously: "Are you really angry? I was also afraid that you would be deceived, so I wanted to check the contract..."
Ana Shen suddenly sighed and said: "I forgot to ask the landlord where the Duke Rabbit Amusement Park is..."
What? ?
"...You frowned just now, are you upset about this?"
Ana Shen raised his head, looked at Li Lin doubtfully, and asked, "What else? What were you mumbling just now?"
Li Lin took a deep breath, feeling like something was stuck in her throat for a moment, and she didn't know how to answer.
Simply, Li Lin took out her AP bracelet, logged into the group buying software, entered the words Duke Rabbit, and started searching.
The Internet has been developing for hundreds of years, but this was the first time she met someone offline to ask for directions.
However, a few words soon popped up on the AP's light screen——
'The target cannot be found, please change the keyword, dear~'
