Today is the day to fly back to Songjiang. Yang Ming got up very early. He looked at Lan Ling, who was sleeping like a kitten beside him, patted her on the back and shouted: "Lan Ling, get up quickly, we have a flight to catch today!"
"Catch a plane?" Lan Ling asked in a daze. Although he usually wakes up earlier than Yang Ming, it's only around three o'clock in the morning, which is when he is most sleepy: "Can't you sleep a little longer?"
"Okay, then you can make your own plane and go back. I'll leave first!" Yang Ming said with a smile.
"I'm up." Lan Ling sat up and rubbed his eyes.
Yang Ming was a little funny: "Go wash your face and brush your teeth quickly, and then sleep on the plane."
"Oh Ling didn't even wear clothes when sleeping, so he walked to the bathroom naked. In front of Yang Ming, there was nothing to avoid.
Yang Ming had the urge to take Lan Ling back to bed and give her a hard...but time was running out, so he could only think about it.
After simply packing his luggage, Yang Ming scanned the entire room with his clairvoyant eyes, fearing that he might have missed something in the corner.
Suddenly, his gaze stopped in a corner, and Yang Ming's brows couldn't help but frown...
After Lan Ling cleaned herself up, Yang Ming went to wash her face and brush her teeth. After everything was ready, Yang Ming carried her luggage bag and left the room with Lan Ling. Zhang Bin and Zhang Jiefang live in the same room this time. After learning the lesson from last time, Zhang Jiefang will not look for the young lady even if he is beaten to death.
Zhang Bin and the others happened to come out. The four of them checked out of the room, and a waiter came to check the facilities in the room. Yang Ming carefully looked at the waiter who came to clean his room and remembered his appearance in his heart.
The entire journey was silent. But Lan Ling's residence in Songjiang has become a problem. Can't she just take her away? Although he and she are already married, things must be done step by step. You have to let your parents accept it little by little.
It seems that the only option is to find a house for Lan Ling first, and then find a way to convince his parents later.
Originally, Yang Ming's parents were coming to the airport to pick them up. Since Lan Ling was there, it was difficult to explain, so Yang Ming told his parents not to come. Zhang Jiefang's driver would take them back.
In order to arrange for Lan Ling, Yang Ming called his parents after arriving in Songjiang and told them that he would go to Zhang Bin's house first and then go back at night. Yang's father and Yang's mother had to go to work anyway, so they didn't pay much attention.
In the afternoon, Yang Ming took Lan Ling and Zhang Bin to a housing agency.
"Who rents a house?" Songjiang's housing agencies have not yet formed a chain business model. These are all small private transactions. Most of the operators are middle-aged aunts. The aunt in front of her looked at the very close man and woman in front of her with a suspicious expression.
Ming pointed at Lan Ling: "Sometimes I'll stay there too."
"What's the relationship between you two?" Aunts like to meddle in other people's business.
"Boyfriend and boyfriend." Yang Ming replied.
"Boyfriend and girlfriend? Are you adults?" The aunt curled her lips.
"You are here to check household registration!" Zhang Bin on the side was a little impatient: "Are you doing business or not? If not, we will go to someone else's house!"
"Hey, don't leave." The aunt just had nothing to do. Of course she had business to do: "Do you have an ID card?" She wanted to make sure first whether these three children were here to cause trouble.
Ming didn't want to spend more time with her, so he explained to himself: "We are students from Songjiang University. My girlfriend lives out of town and wants to rent a house nearby to accompany me. Please help me see if there is a suitable one!" "
The agency aunt heard that she was a student. Immediately relieved. She was afraid that if the property was rented to some idle member of society, the landlord would come to the agency to settle the score with her.
"Wait a minute, let me check it for you." The agency lady took out a broken book and started checking it: "What standard land do you want and how much does it cost?"
"One house or two houses are acceptable, preferably a house built after two thousand years. It doesn't matter whether it is decorated or not, as long as the environment is good." Yang Ming didn't know much about this aspect, so he just told the agent his requirements.
"Well, there are three properties that meet your requirements. The houses are all built after 2000. One is in the Washington Community at the back door of Songgong University, and the other two are buildings for employees' families of Songgong University." The agency aunt said: " The Washington community is more expensive, and the houses are from last year. The area is larger, meters. One house for employees' families was built in 1999. The other house was built in 2002, with a similar area, meters. The one in 1999 was renovated, but the one in 2002 was not installed.
"How much is the rent?" Yang Ming
The building for employees' families is good.
"The monthly rent for employees' family buildings is 800," said.
"Can the rent get cheaper?" Yang Ming asked.
"You can negotiate for the one in the Washington community, but the one for employees' families is the lowest price." The agent said, "If you think it's suitable, I'll contact the owner to view the house."
Yang Ming and Zhang Bin studied it and asked for Lan Ling's opinion. They both felt that the employee family building was good. After all, most of the people living there were school teachers and there were no people from the society, so it was safer.
"Let's take a look at the houses in the employee family building!" Yang Ming said.
"Okay, I'll discuss the agency fee with you first. Once you decide to rent, you and the landlord will each pay me 10% of one month's rent as the agency fee." The agency aunt said.
Ten percent is eighty yuan, which is quite reasonable. Yang Ming nodded and said: "No problem."
"Remind you, you are not allowed to have private contact with the landlord for a while!" The agency aunt said: "For insurance, you first give me a deposit of fifty yuan, otherwise if you bypass me, how can I make money!"
Yang Ming thought that this was indeed what happened, and then looked at the business license on the wall. He felt that this person should not be a liar, so he took out fifty yuan and gave it to the agency aunt.
The agency aunt gave him a deposit receipt and contacted the landlord.
"One of the homeowners went out. Now he only has the 1999 set that has been renovated. After putting down the phone, the agent asked.
"Okay, when will we see the house?" The decoration is better, but Yang Ming doesn't care.
"It's OK now." The agency aunt said: "The landlord is a professor at Songjiang University of Technology. The house is allocated by his employer, but he still has one house, so this one is free."
The agency aunt was a small business owner, so she ran it by herself. She locked the door and took Yang Ming and the others to look at the house.
I saw Zhang Bin’s Chrysler 300c outside the door. It’s such a good car, why should I rent a house? "
But then she stopped talking. She probably subconsciously regarded Yang Ming and Zhang Bin as young men from wealthy families, and Lan Ling was the woman Yang Ming kept behind his family's back.
Zhang Bin didn't know what the agency aunt was thinking, so he explained: "My dad's company's car is not ours."
This explanation solidified the idea of the agency aunt. She looked at Yang Ming and Lan Ling with very suspicious eyes along the way. She even suspected whether Lan Ling's ID card was forged? She doesn't look like she is seventeen!
The family area of Songjiang University of Technology is inside the campus. After Yang Ming lives on campus, he can easily find Lan Ling. Because the school built it for its own employees, the environment here is very good. There are dedicated cleaning staff, and you must have a pass to enter and exit. If someone comes to visit a friend, the security office will call the owner for verification, so casualties cannot come in at all.
Now Yang Ming can't get in. They stand at the door of the family area, waiting for the landlord to come and pick them up.
About ten minutes later, a Volkswagen Golf parked at the gate of the community, and an old man in his fifties got out of the car. The agency aunt rushed to greet him: "Professor Liu, I have brought all the house watchers. "
"Okay, let's go see the house now... Huh?" Professor Liu couldn't help but be startled when he saw Yang Ming.
As for Yang Ming, he was very surprised when he first saw Professor Liu get out of the car! This person is Liu Weishan whom I met in Tengchong a while ago!
"Mr. Liu, why is it you?" Yang Ming said happily. Zhang Jiefang had already told Yang Ming Liu Weishan's identity, so Yang Ming respected him very much.
"You are..." Liu Weishan felt that Yang Ming looked familiar just now, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had seen him.
Yang Ming was stunned. It turned out that Liu Weishan didn't recognize him just now. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. However, he then thought that Liu Weishan was so famous and would definitely come into contact with many people every day. It was normal for him to not be able to remember someone he had only met once. of.
"By the way! I remembered, you are the young man I met at Xinhua Bookstore in Tengchong!" Liu Weishan touched his forehead and said suddenly.
