Went to Jason’s rented house at noon.
When Zhu Yu passed by, Jason came back with his two younger brothers. He was very happy to see Zhu Yu.
Before Zhu Yu could sit down, Jason began to report on the current situation at the cargo yard:
“Boss, half of the space in the cargo yard has been rented out to store containers.
For the remaining half, I have already inquired about seven cargo yards, and they agreed to sell us a batch of expired and unacknowledged containers at a fair price. "
"In other words, the goods yard has begun to make a profit now?"
"Yes." Jason took out a notebook, which contained the number of containers that entered the cargo yard in the past two days and the rents written in not very neat handwriting.
Zhu Yu glanced at it and didn't care.
The warehouse is still in its infancy stage, everything is irregular and primitive. Basically, they rely on the personal charm of Jason and Bundy to manage it.
Zhu Yu didn't intend to intervene. Anyway, he didn't intend to waste that energy on it. It would be best if Old John could find someone. If you can’t find anyone, then you can focus on collecting abandoned containers and rent them out as a side business.
But Jason never thought that this goods yard was just Zhu Yu's spare time. He talked enthusiastically about his work over the past two days and his thoughts.
It wasn't until Freya brought the food that he stopped talking.
The staple food for lunch today is rice, and the dishes include spicy chicken, braised beef with potatoes and steamed sea fish.
The portions of the dishes are very generous, the kind that come in pots.
Zhu Yu was surprised that Freya could make steamed sea fish, and it smelled pretty good!
This meal made Zhu Yu feel what it meant to gobble it up!
Jason and his two brothers carried the rice in basins, eating as fast as they could!
The rice is covered with a thick layer of potato-roasted beef gravy, and it’s ready in less than ten minutes!
I think I worked hard in the goods yard and was tired.
After dinner, Freya brought a cup of tea. Zhu Yu was half lying on a chair, feeling so comfortable that he didn't even want to go to the house.
After a long mental struggle, Zhu Yu got up, said hello to Freya, and went out to leave.
Jason and his two younger brothers ran to the goods yard after dinner, with no concept of a lunch break.
This is really a world of difference compared to most of their kin in Africa.
Zhu Yu drove the car and navigated to the old house.
Most of the houses in this area are bungalows, and occasionally there are two or three floors, but it can be seen that they are all old houses.
In the words of Huaxia Real Estate, the location is not good, it is not a commercial area, and it has no development value. Although it is an old house, it is not considered a cultural relic.
It looks like a rather dilapidated yard. There were several cars parked on both sides of the door. They should be people who had the same idea as Zhu Yu.
You can see some old furniture being put out in the yard. I don’t know if it is intended to be thrown away or sold.
Zhu Yu parked the car and walked into the yard.
There were already several people in the yard, some looking at the quality of the furniture, and others discussing the price with a middle-aged white man who looked like the owner.
Seeing Zhu Yu coming over, the well-dressed middle-aged white man said loudly:
"Are you here to see something? See it for yourself. If you like anything, we can discuss the price."
Zhu Yu glanced at it and asked:
"Can I watch it in the house?"
"No problem. You can see everything. You can even buy this yard!"
Zhu Yu and several others laughed.
This is a humorous host.
I looked around and saw that most of the furniture was very ordinary. There are two old-fashioned cabinets, which look to be of good workmanship, but someone has already checked them and asked about the price.
Zhu Yu did not interfere and walked inside casually.
Seeing that there were so many people competing, Zhu Yu no longer had high hopes for any gains from this trip.
These days, there are not many people with good vision.
The rooms in the bungalow have been tidied up, and if there are no small household items, they must have been moved.
The wooden floor has been worn away from its original color and is very smooth.
Zhu Yu subconsciously used his heavenly eye.
There are no mezzanines, no darkrooms, no safes in the walls.
Everything was normal. Zhu Yu even saw a termite nest under the floor of the study room near the outer wall, and a large group of termites were busy.
There was an old-fashioned record player in the study that was very interesting. Zhu Yu planned to take it away if he didn't gain anything from staying there for a while.
The male host walked in, saw Zhu Yu looking at the record player, and said:
"Two hundred dollars, you can take it if you want."
Zhu Yu nodded and said:
"I'll take a look again."
"OK."
Someone shouted outside, and the man turned and left.
Zhu Yu moved to the bedroom, where there was nothing else except an old-fashioned wooden bed.
Zhu Yu turned around and went to the kitchen with some disappointment.
The kitchen utensils have been cleared out, and several of the floorboards have been broken due to long-term use. The broken wooden strips are still in use after being put together.
There are also termites gnawing down below - Huh?
Zhu Yu was a little surprised. Under the wooden floor in the kitchen, there was a metal can the size of a can!
The location is right in front of the gas stove, below where the person is standing.
And next to this place is where the wooden floor broke!
Zhu Yu was slightly excited!
But at this moment, the male host came in again. Seeing Zhu Yu standing by the gas stove, he introduced:
"This stove has a history of thirty years! It is very easy to use and can be used as soon as you hit it! If you are interested..."
"No, no, no!" Zhu Yu shook his head and walked out, "I just took a look, I think that record player is better!"
The male host was not disappointed because Zhu Yu did not choose the gas stove, and said with a smile:
"Well, young man, you have good taste! If it were me, I would also choose the record player!"
Someone shouted again outside, and the man went out again.
Zhu Yu hesitated, should he dig out the jar?
Eyes of Heaven swept outside and saw that the male host was discussing the price with another person. Zhu Yu mentally calculated the time for the male host to come back, quickly rushed back to the kitchen, took out the knife and started to pry up the wooden floor!
Looking at the almost rotten floorboards, it is unexpectedly difficult to pry!
Zhu Yu observed the situation outside with his eyes while prying.
Due to nervousness, there was a slight sweat on his face!
Finally, the floor strips directly above the iron can were pried open, revealing the hard soil underneath.
Fortunately it’s not cement!
Then he used the knife to dig into the soil again, and soon the iron jar underneath was revealed!
Zhu Yu turned around and found that the male owner had already negotiated the price with someone else and walked into the house again!
Zhu Yu's nervous heart almost jumped out of his chest!
He immediately took the jar and pulled it out!
However, the jar was severely crushed by the surrounding hard soil. Zhu Yu had no choice but to pry it open with a knife again!
Seeing the male host open the door and walk into the bungalow, Zhu Yu's heart was in his throat!
Even if he took the jar out now, he wouldn't have time to put the wooden floor strips back together!
what to do?
